Serious Thoughts on meditation as a cope?

[Deleted member 33827]

Legit have nothing else to do these days besides studycucking and exhausted all the copes available

I think I should replace my cope time with meditation.

How legit is it? Will it help me fix the brain damage caused by years of true forced self isolation? I just want to be happier and more optimistic. Sick and tired of being the same old depressed shit.

it can help with some brain damage. makes you lower inhibition and easier to focus on task at hand.
if you do decide to do it, read the mind illuminated, you can find on libgen. start small time and increase over time

How should I start? Do I just sit and close my eyes or what? What do I focus on?

Meditation consists of nothing but sitting still and being absent minded for a long period of time. LDAR may as well qualify as meditating.

I know man but normies say it makes them happier idk.. I'm so desperate for happiness I just hate being depressed all the time

Observe thy thoughts. Thee maketh no judgment. Righteous or unholy of one's owneth mind (ego) .

I have spoken!.

0 IQ read up on it. there is alot more to it than that especially at higher stages

I hear it works for some and others not so much. Why not at least try? What have you got to lose?

read the the mind illuminated book if you an goes in detail on it.


but basically you start with focusing on breath, the sensations of air going in and out the nostrils. eventually this become very easy and second nature, at that point you expand you focus to be both on breath and awareness of bodily sensations. later stages one can experience many sensations a second at once. there are eventually some stages where borderline permanent mental changes occur( where you get pleasure states or jhanas, also become mostly permanently more calm)

I've heard some guy on YouTube talk about his "out of body experience" and how it made him less depressed and more motivated. Is that thing for real?

Yeah I'll give it a try tbh.

out of body experience are real thing but very very few people get that far as it can take a few years to decade plus to get there with diligent 30-60 min daily practice.

but they are def possible and I have a few kind of ones. further up you go the easier it is to pull em off

Cope, there's literally nothing more to it. Your just sitting still and thinking/not thinking. I could literally LDAR and be considered a celibate monk for doing so.

The later stages just consist of transferring heat from one body part to another and other useless abilitie oriented around body awareness. There is no enlightenment or higher state of consciousness.


You mean like astral projection? No case has been empirically recorded. Its all speculation and theory. Any one who says they had an out of body experience is lying.

keep coping and stay in Samsara

As if you've escaped the cycle of death and rebirth, over for eternal recurrence cels. Projection and cope.

Brutal man. Your posts make me feel like it will be a big waste of time but I'm wasting my time with retarded shit anyways and it didn't do anything good infact made me even more depressed. I might as well give it a shot and see what happens.

pretty much what this guy said, just try to go easy idk 40 mins a day

 

[osman27]

it's a good cope.

Meditation is not used to replace cope time.

Only a little bit. You can fix the remaining damage with other methods. Some of the damage we experience because of isolation is permanent, tho.


Two things:
1. For a more optimistic mind, you only need 2g of mushrooms.
2. Anyways, pursuing "happiness" directly is a problem You can't control that. Happiness, motivation, and all other forms of "euphoria" that don't involve physical pleasure can't be totally controlled at will. Happiness invariably fluctuates, and that holds true even for normies and Chads. If you follow the hedonistic path, you will fry the reward circuits of your brain and develop depression (though that's not the only thing that pushes us to the dark side). That's what is called the "hedonist threadmill" or the "hedonist paradox": the more you pursue happiness and pleasure, the most miserable you are going to be.

Instead, you have to pursue power, being strong, discipline... you name it. If you get used to be strong, and you get to understand that you shouldn't hold into happiness. That way a. you won't fall before obstacles and b. you will have more sensitive reward pathways.

TL/DR: Forget about happiness, work hard, eat healthy, exercise, meditate, don't indulge in physical pleasure and do P. cubensis.

I could post something more elaborate, but I don't have much time. I won't be very active again until July. Take care, boyo.

You are a good man. God bless you.
