It's been a while since I posted here. Like a long while. But damn it if the world isn't going to hell.
You all have watched Jordan Peterson by now, right? Peterson said something about Jesus' spirt "living on" that struck a chord with me that I wanted to share with you. The interviewer asked him to clarify what he meant by spirt, and he said, roughly:
A spirit is a pattern of being and behaving; it's a habitual pattern of thinking and feeling; and it can be passed through many mediums, through books, through speech, through observing others' actions.
What The Red Pill community, at its best, does for young men is to support them in identifying positive, wholesome, life-enhancing spirits, and to then support them in pulling those spirits inside of them, giving them agency and outlet for manifestation in the world.
How does this relate to lifting?
Lifting makes you strong physically, mentally, and spiritually. The last part is the most crucial. Lifting makes you stress-test your spirit, your resolve, your determination to carry on. It makes you channel in new spirits, capable of bearing that load.
There is an over-emphasis in this sub on the importance of getting fit in order to attract women. Yes, that is part of the game. It is a very important part of the game especially for short-term one-off sexual encounters. But for more meaningful encounters, if you're into that sort of thing, Game (with a capital G) actually matters. And once you go LTR, again if you're into that sort of thing, Game matters a lot. Being swole won't help you pass a shit test. But the process of getting swole will help you build the spirit that gives you the natural Game which will help you pass that shit test.
And so how do we develop the right Spirits? We look to examples of people we want to be like. We remind ourselves of values and ideas that we hold dear. And we keep acting in a manner consistent with our more nobler, more dominant Spirits' proclivities. You can't act like a bitch when you're alone and expect your Alpha spirit to come back into your body when other people show up. You have to be doing it all the time. It's a full time job.
