I seek power

[Scholar]

I dont care about englithment or anything like that, I seek power and dominance over those around me. Im gonna get every single secret of the most powerful daoist practices so I can get near my goal of power. Im summoning all daoist masters to teach me this art so I can flourish over my enemies and destroy(physically and/or mentally) those who DARE to oppose me. 

 

Ps: I cant pay so teach me for free. Thanks

Never had much interest in Enlightenment when i first started training and i still don't. People train for various reasons. Having power is great...but as with all things, it must be tempered appropriately, to avoid harmful recoil.

You are right , enlightenment is the weak man cope . Happiness is getting our desires FULLFILLED WITH NO RESTRICTION. Happiness is power and power is happiness.

It's anti-Buddhism lol

You want power?  Educate yourself in something valuable, like science or politics.  Learn the art of coercion.

Satirists are often misunderstood but they have fun, and isn´t fun is it´s own kind of power?

[helpfuldemon]

You can learn power over yourself, but every person has their own power, and to overcome their Will to get yours is tricky buisiness.

The sith Lord from Star Wars, the one that says "unlimited power"

True that, but also body shriveled.  Always playing games to fool people, never enough power, killed by disciple.  I didn't see the last couple episodes.

 

Sometimes those seeking POWER!! are really seeking Drama.   Power without wisdom leads to imbalance, an imbalance that gets worse and worse til it self destructs.  Part of wisdom is self control and keeping away from drama.

I couldn't agree more. Seeking is seeking to add to the self, add to the ego. A lot of those on the forum primarily seeking power tend to have a similar flavor when being communicated with.

The absolute power is the only thing truly worthy of cultivation, the power than can break through all limits and limitations of a human being.

I stretch before goung to bed and meditate 2 minutes a day

There is room for improvement.  Stretch when you wake up and increase meditation by 50% to 3 minutes a day.

 

turnabout is fairplay.

my powers.  I was angry and irritated at my wife and friend, and I didn't act on it.  Instead I listened sympathetically and hung out.  In a warm shower I turned the knob to max cold and stayed in.  Did Wim Hof Breathing.. the long hold after exhaling is no longer the self water boarding I used to consider it.  I've moved doing 75 swings w/ 34# kettlebell to 80 swings w/ a 54 pounder. 

 

my failures.  My clever trade from yesterday is down 30%.  I wanted to get past level 4 of Rawn Clarks Archaeous, I can't (it's waking astral travel).  I long to escape to the eating, drinking and debauchery of Key West.. yet live in the cold midwest.  I have a dozen worthy books that lie unread.  I have paid courses of study, most notably 100 Days of Python.  I can't get past the boss on the next to last level of Drop Dead VR and my progress in Arizona Sunshine Zombie game is incredibly slow.  I can't survive the helicopter episode in SuperHot VR game.  I spend too much time playing games.   Could go on but would run out of paper.

2mins might not be enough

Ah, but that 30% figure only tells part of the story.  Power is managing your position sizing so that you can roll with the occasional dramatic loss undaunted emotionally and financially.  It´s not whether you win or lose, it´s how you play the game.   

[XianGong]

A rule of thumb if you meditate less time a day than taking a dump takes, you won't progress far.
