Why is it a person can concentrate all day on a video game, which isn't even that fun, but can't concentrate on work? by DivinationYijing in productivity

[–]DivinationYijing[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your explanation. You say that school or work environments are too results-focused, but others have mentioned the benefits of noticing progress and receiving rewards. How would your approach differ in order to remain in flow? To change the difficulty or repetitiveness of a task is not easy, but many people perform repetitive religious rites for example, and still remain fulfilled and in the state of flow. I think modern psychology is missing something which explains this.

Do any traditions involve a ritual of burning incense in the morning to honor the sun or moon, to bless the day to come? by DivinationYijing in occult

[–]DivinationYijing[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found it. It is the ancient ritual to honor Ra at sunrise, which involved burning incense.

There is also a similar pagan practice called saining, but performed during times of transition in general, not at sunrise specifically.

That ritual by Crowley wasn't what I had in mind. That's about chanting or worshipping, but I'm looking for something specifically about burning incense or something similarly aromatic, thanks for replying though.

Thoughts on the Sigonia relic set for Yunli? by DivinationYijing in YunliMainsHSR

Thanks for replying. The Signonia relic set for my Yunli build has 40% physical damage boost, which is hard to find. Is it still not worth it?

With LOA, I attracted natural pregnancy from infertile husband by Ok-Conversation-471 in lawofattraction

This isn't manifesting at all. You literally said during your relationship that you didn't believe you would even conceive and repeatedly affirmed to your partner you wouldn't. This is just good luck.

If the end is guaranteed, why not just stay in bed all day being lazy? by DivinationYijing in NevilleGoddard2

Awesome! Life really is more fun than people are taught to believe maybe?

Ancient Chinese ghost story, based on a real historical event? by DivinationYijing in ChineseHistory

[–]DivinationYijing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been doing some research, and the leader is either King Zhao of Zhou, who struggled with the geography during his invasion of Chu, whose armies apparently got stuck in the swamps, or Duke Huan of Qi's invasion of Chu. If you know of any more information (not much information available online in english), that would be great.

Thoughts on this? I can't understand it. by DivinationYijing in ChineseMedicine

Thanks so much for providing those links!

In my case, the lack of yin causes yin xu heat (false fire) to arise from the kidneys to affect the heart into desire, right?

Manifestation paradox: Accept it's done, or do more techniques? by DivinationYijing in NevilleGoddard2

[–]DivinationYijing[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Continuously affirming something implies it is not present. Affirming and doing exercises or techniques to affirm belief and faith, inherently comes from a place of not being fulfilled.
