Those guys are worried about material comfort mostly. Meanwhile, the average /lit/zen seeks some kind of transcendence - be it through art or philosophy. Both are valid paths in their own way.

Today I posted this as a thread on /x/
"Our minds are radios, for better or worse. We're all tuned into the same wavelength, with much variation between those who are fully connected and receiving the signal fully
(NPC Hive Minds, certain Illuminati Guru's ) and those who are detuned, catching a fuzzy signal, and potentially receiving the signals of other realities
(So claimed "Loonies" and Monks and Priests and Philosophers and Artists) God is the Signal Source. The radio tower. Our senses are what we're picking up.
Drugs are used to alter the frequency, but ONLY FOR NORMIES AND NPCS. Some, not enough, "Loonies" and philosophers already understand that they have control over their Receiver.
This is true for everybody, but Normie NPCS would never think themselves capable of changing their perception of reality. They are, though. Drugs just forcibly change the signal.
Alcohol and caffeine are good examples of slightly detuning your radio. But you're able to change your perception at will.
You can, if you want, enter into Drunken Mode or into Psychotic Mode or even Autistic Savant mode.
Our minds are radios only by analogy. It's an inexact comparison. A radio receives signals and broadcasts what it receives. Just like television it isn't the exact signal, or source, but a re-creation.
Our minds take in signals through our senses. They too re-create the signal in it's broadcast. Also, radios have dials that change what they receive.
Humans are generally tuned to the same perceptions, but even then it's clear that not all humans experience precisely the same. Anyways, you can change your tuning.
You can allow yourself to receive and interpret information differently. People have power over their sensations."

I have this woman in my mind who I talk to. She a real angel. I can talk to her about anything. I ask her, "what's the meaning of life?" and she, through God of course, showed me flowers blooming, suns setting and rising, things being born, things laying to sleep, things dying, growing, changing, learning, loving, ect.

Do perhaps the four cardinal virtues align with both the DDLC Girls and The Diamond Authority?

Temperance / Sayori / Pink / Ringo / South / Down / Empathy / Night
Justice / Yuri / Blue / George / East / Left / Chastity / Afternoon
Fortitude / Natsuki / Yellow / Paul / West / Right / Charity / Evening
Prudence / Monika / White / John / North / Up / Epiphany / Morning

I talk with these fellows in bed, in imagination. Good fellows. Are these different entities, or different versions of the same one? My spiritual communication abilities grow better and better with each attempt. Still a long way to go though.

Their personalities:
Temperance is the one I'm most well acquainted with. Very kind, comforting, and sweet. She seems to enjoy painting, specifically splashing the paint across wildly.
Justice is quiet, sleepy.
Fortitude is strong, loud.
Prudence is curious, with big wide eyes.

Anon on 4chan asked: How use magic to get GF?

I answered:
A spell to get a GF? Like, a physical one? No, because you can effect others free will on a mass scale but rarely on an individual scale. (Because brainwashing works better on groups, not individuals.)

Now, you CAN get a mental Tulpa* Gf. If you do go that route, use tantric masturbation** to re-program your eight-circuits*** by pretending your imaginary**** GF says stuff like
>You're safe
>You're strong
>You're smart
>You're sweet
>You're healthy
>You're psychic
>You're in control of yourself
>You're everything and everyone

*A separate personality in your mind, as many as desired.
**Not that I condone masturbation, it's better to NOT cum at all, but if you do it, do it like this
***Look up Leary's Eight-Model Circuit on wikipedia.
****But it's not really imaginary.The mind can act as radio to spirits just by imagining them, let them speak and don't speak for them. USE IMAGINATION.

Remove all words describing the physical, leave only those describing abstract ideas. That is the language of the heaven dwellers.

LOVE = Light, Osculation, Ventilation, Elasticity
That's my unified theory, what's yours?

You know, I've had friends, female friends, but they never solved my loneliness. They've only intensified it, because they've only showcased how unlike them I was. They would talk about Pokemon or Facebook, I would ask if they believe in God, or if they have an internal monologue. Then they'd call me creepy or weird or just ignore me entirely. Sometimes they'd say, seemingly randomly, "He's just like that." and laugh. Point is, IF you're able to find a truly good person, they are as plain water to the salt water of a fool. I personally, however, have difficulty finding people who's waters I mix with. I'm always on a different wavelength. In my solitude, brought about from various incidents of self-induced public embarrassment, I've discovered something. That being alone isn't that bad. In fact, it's much more liberating then being with others. The mind, when allowed to rest in a comfortable place, or anywhere really, and become nothing, is a perfect bliss that cannot be matched by others company. Though loneliness may seep in, it is solved easily. Create in your mind an imaginary friend. I'm serious. Don't speak for them, allow your mind to wander and show you what they say. I tell you, the pleasures of being alone outweigh the social comforts.

Book noting and dog-earing. Mental visualization, eyes open and closed. Imaginary meetings out loud with self as chairman. Study right when awaking and right before sleep.

My advice is to write down in a journal about what you're studying before and after studying. That is,
>Doing X, for Y time, and will hopefully ect
and later
>Finished X, here's what happened
Gives an easy way to both record and discuss with yourself about something. I'd also recommend just talking with yourself and thinking a lot about your subject. Thinking is direct knowledge about something, even better if you meditate and try entering Gnosis. (That is, singular full attention on a single thing.)

No you didn't. You added your own ending. They actually work if you do them right. You likely know this, but work for the CIA, tasked with going around convincing others that such things don't actually work. Or perhaps you're one of the many who live in fluoridated water areas, or are experiencing television and phone induced psychic attacks.

Yes. I found an exact copy of my visualized dime. With the little black dot and everything. I found a few other quarters too. You really got to believe. You got to search for a while, but it happens.

One of the recommended exercises is to imagine a coin. Then go out and look for coins on the ground. Then sometimes you actually find it. Is it coin-icidence? Maybe. But I personally have had success with it. I really actually beleive it's more effective if you think it's magic instead of coincidence or confirmation bias

I've made this list many months ago. Been holding off posting it to give self time to actually start reading it. It's mostly chronological, philosophy focused. The reason it's not exactly chronological is because I believe that some works are intertwined, and should be read side by side. Cherry pick from this introduction to literature.

>Epic of Gilgamesh (Steven Mitchel translation) / Homer's Illiad and Odysee (Lattimore for Illiad, but Odysee by Fagels) / Virgil's Aenied (Fagels)
Why Virgil right after Homer? Because Virgil's work is a fan fiction of Homer's work. Not going to recc specific translations from this point out.
