Don't feed the hungry ghosts

I have been sober almost 3 years now from heroin after using the needle from 15 to 22.

That's awesome, congrats dude

I've been clean from 500mg oxycodone/day for 4 years. I can relate to you in that way. It's extremely rough to get the dopamine system running again. On my end, it took roughly a year before I was able to enjoy ANYTHING at all. Thanks for your post.

Wow...I never expected such wisdom here.

Appreciate your point about women not being dumb while being unable to get laid. A lot of posts here seem to denigate women but if you want pussy then you have to adhere to the reality they setup.

There is a lot of heavy shit to dwell on in your post that im struggling with as well. The heroin thing deserves to be further articulated.

How did you afford a 7 year heroin addiction? That's impressive in itself.

What I want to know is what these sick 300 lb pill popping men are doing to afford their 5 million dollar homes.

In the Beast Realm we are driven by basic survival instincts and appetites such as physical hunger and sexuality, what Freud called the Id.

The denizens of the Hell Realm are trapped in states of unbearable rage and anxiety.

In the God Realm we transcend our troubles and our egos through sensual, aesthetic or religious experience, but only temporarily and in ignorance of spiritual truth. Even this enviable state is tinged with loss and suffering.

The inhabitants of the Hungry Ghost Realm are depicted as creatures with scrawny necks, small mouths, emaciated limbs and large, bloated, empty bellies. This is the domain of addiction, where we constantly seek something outside ourselves to curb an insatiable yearning for relief or fulfillment.

Obviously this all must be understood on the symbolic and intuitive level and not as literal places. (all things become absurd when Dumbed Down)

It might be interesting to do a post that more clearly gets into some of this.

Some will complain "we don't need no religion here" but if you do it at a sufficiently abstract and symbolic level it might work.

Keep off those addictions... teach others...

People in Delhi are smarter than us in so many ways

The inhabitants of the Hungry Ghost Realm are depicted as creatures with scrawny necks, small mouths, emaciated limbs and large, bloated, empty bellies. This is the domain of addiction, where we constantly seek something outside ourselves to curb an insatiable yearning for relief or fulfillment. The aching emptiness is perpetual because the substances, objects or pursuits we hope will soothe it are not what we really need. We don’t know what we need, and so long as we stay in the hungry ghost mode, we’ll never know. We haunt our lives without being fully present.

Yeah, the throats are not wide enough to allow sufficient sustenance to enter to placate the stomach.

I mean objectively I've seen women do some extra stupid shit because they got the tingles

But equally I've seen some men do some awful shit

I think we're just misanthropes
