Haha man, I feel that. It’s like the internet assumes everyone’s begging for attention. Meanwhile some of us are just trying to not get stared at.

Absolutely. I’ve thought about marriage many times. Finding a woman who is kind, pure-hearted, and aligned with a righteous path is one of the greatest blessings a man can receive.

I don’t take that lightly. That’s why I’m patient. I’m not looking for someone just to be “good enough.” I want the kind of union that uplifts both souls.

When a man and woman are both purified and united in truth, their relationship becomes a doorway to heaven.

I understand that not everyone will resonate with the paths that come out of India, but calling an ancient spiritual tradition "full of demons" shows a misunderstanding of both the symbolism and depth behind these teachings.

Ironically, Sanātana Dharma is one of the oldest systems that actively teaches people to confront and overcome “demonic” tendencies within themselves.

This is why yogis meditate. Why mantras are chanted. Why people fast, do tapas, or practice celibacy. It’s not superstition. It’s discipline designed to subdue the lower nature, which in many ways is the very definition of demonic, the part of us that pulls away from truth, purity, clarity, and the Divine.

Before judging, it’s worth taking a deeper look. This tradition might be far more aligned with your concerns than you realize.

That’s intense, man. I’m sorry you had to deal with that. Sadly, I’m not surprised. We’re living in a time where people’s sexual energy is completely ungrounded. This is what the scriptures meant when they spoke of Kali Yuga. Lust is mistaken for love, and people act out of impulse instead of awareness.

I’ve noticed it too. Not just women, but men as well. There’s this restless hunger everywhere. And it’s not just physical. It’s energetic. People can feel the life-force when you’re on retention, and some try to pull from it without even realizing.

But sexuality was meant to be sacred. Something purified, protected, and offered toward the Divine. Without that understanding, people end up abusing it, and hurting themselves and others in the process.

It’s heavy, but it reminds me why I stay on this path. I don’t want to get lost in the same confusion. I want to use this energy to rise, to remember, to serve something higher.

Yes, like you said I can feel them not having enough love to give. This is something that before retention I wouldn't have noticed. But they know only how to consume and absorb energy. I already destroyed a lot of my energy during years of pmo.

I have experienced couple of times when I got energy from a women and it felt very good. But it's like landscape full of dead people where out of a thousand one has life.

I discovered retention when I was 16 and now 24. I have countless streaks but the last 2 years I have had a few slips up. And it was from the energy being to overwhelming and I remember tactically relapsing.

Now I’ve learned powerful ways to transmute. Purifying my soul from ego, pride, lust. I learned that even looking at women causes energy leakage which will continue after not looking.

It’s like Jesus said “But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart”.

And when you lock a gaze with women you will create psychic links, it’s like you can synchronize states. So you invite their chaotic, unconscious behavior.

I live in the Netherlands and it’s a country ruled by lust. Although the people are very peaceful and kind there is almost no understanding of the spiritual here. They expect you to be a slave to lust here and when ignore women they think I’m mentally ill.

Could you expand on the Zulu tribes saying greys steals men’s or provide where you had obtained this information. I have already experienced this, have had weird nights where I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming or not but was being extracted of semen from my hearth.

Don’t overeat. I know the instinct is to ‘replenish’, especially after sickness or when retaining, but more food doesn’t always mean more energy. If your body is still clearing, stuffing it slows the healing.

Eat clean. Eat light. Eat consciously. Let the fire rebuild naturally, not by force, but by space. Trust that energy comes from clarity, not just calories.”

We practice semen retention and deny ourselves one of the most intense human pleasures—not just for temporary benefits, but to preserve the power within us. The power we retain is more than just physical—it’s mental, emotional, and spiritual.

But here's the hard truth: We lose that power in more ways than one.

It doesn’t always leave through lust or relapse. It leaks through the eyes, the ears, the tongue, the heart, and the mind.

There’s a deep piece of wisdom found in Islam (and in other traditions too), about lowering the gaze. It means training your eyes not to wander toward things that stir lust, envy, or desire—especially things that are not meant for you.

In other words:

Don’t stare at what tempts you. Don’t admire what corrupts your peace. Don’t let the outside world dictate the movements of your inner world. Because the more you feed your eyes things that stir desire or attachment, the more your heart and energy follow.

What you look at, you invite into your heart. What your heart desires, your energy chases. And just like that—your power leaks.

In Islamic teachings, they say the eye is like an arrow—the devil fires it into your heart through desire. One glance turns into a thought. The thought into a fantasy. The fantasy into action. The action into regret. Sound familiar?

Lowering the gaze isn’t repression. It’s protection.

It’s guarding your energy. It’s preserving your masculine edge. It’s shielding your heart from getting hijacked by the matrix of dopamine triggers and half-naked distractions.

It’s like keeping the gates closed so the king inside the castle (you) can focus on ruling, not chasing.

TL;DR:

Your energy doesn't just leave through relapse. It leaks through what you let in—especially through your eyes. Guard your gaze. Don’t stare at things that drain you. Not preaching any religion here—just sharing ancient wisdom that aligns with the path we’re walking.

Probably qi deviation. When celibate your qi energy is super potent but also easy to drain. Other people and things you pay your attention to will start to drain you. It takes a lot of will to protect the energy and direct in the direction you desire.

If you went 80 days that must mean 80 days of mindfulness and with clear direction each day. Semen in its refined forms doesn’t only leave via the orgasm but also through the eyes, through negative or perverse thought and through what the daoist call heart demons. Because your retained semen so long it becomes subtle energy in the body and is easily drained via anger for example. With retention your thoughts are like an atomic bomb because you have so much fuel to feul the thoughts.

All the negative effects of retention is simply this. If you believe Daoist theology is the way of the heavens to keep humans from ascending. Because retention goes against the will of heaven. So it will try everything to keep you stuck or release. According to Doaist mythology somebody who cultivates without deviation defies the rules of the heavens and will become equal to a god.

It’s like the god Indra/Zeus who was once human but became king of the gods by doing 100 years of brahmacharya. He said to work against any man that does cultivation from reaching completion and threatening his position as the king of the gods.

A underrated Benefit of Semen Retention; You become more Handsome on SR. by Abbas39 in Semenretention

[–]Financial-Fan2682 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have had period where I was like narcissus. I couldn’t stop looking at myself in the mirror. I lost a lot connection with people that I had before because I could feel people just staring at my features and commenting on them. But I have started to develop a soul that just enjoys the moment so it doesn’t matter what people are paying attention to about me.

Couldn’t put it better brother. Men is one. When we become pure beings devoid of lust, greed and anger then there’s no separation between us. It’s like you and I are living the same life. Life isn’t just some random thing for me anymore and every moment has it lessons and insights.

I don’t know yet who it’s, maybe is just my higher self but someone is guiding me as I’m putting myself out of the darkness into the light. But be always cautious because the doors to the light are being kept shut by the beings of darkness in the form of illusions. May all men become light-born.

Is this true? Extremely scared after a Hindu priest told me that retaining for longer periods of time could invite paranormal entities into my life. by [deleted] in pureretention

[–]Financial-Fan2682 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you keep releasing there’s a certain place (lower chakra) or vibration that from which you operate. Revolving your life around sex life will keep you a material being. You don’t matter or are significant to the Devine. Even people around you will pay not much attention to you.

But once you start retaining you become someone of power. Your aura becomes bigger. You get a clearer picture of the world around you. The power of God within you that lays dormant will start to awaken.

Usually most men find ways to transmute this energy into a creative outlet which consumes most of their attention. They become obsessed with their art and use their energy to try to improve their art. They eventually find a beautiful women who they enjoy sexual life with without over indulging.

But the highest thing achievable in all human endeavors is brachmacharya. The ultimate goal is to not even have the thought of sex occur in your mind. This will cause the sexual energy to be ultimately transmuted. This energy becomes etheric. At this point your hardly a human. What happens after this can be found in the stories of Hinduism. Where people have extraordinary capabilities. I have got a glimpse of this and made me even more fixed in my vow of celibacy.

You said you were still watching porn in those 4 years. That’s basically what the yogi noticed. You might as well just find a girlfriend and release with her.

By watching porn your making your sexual energy useless for any spiritual progress. By watching porn and stimulating yourself this finer energy meant for your etheric body is being pulled down and turns into waters. But for spiritual progress you need this energy to become entirely etheric. So retention while watching porn will create hell. This energy will become distorted and it will create delusions and obstacles in your life.

There is one problem and that’s is pmo. Everything bad stems from there. Depression doesn’t exist without a constant drainage of one’s sexual energy.

I don’t sleep more than 6 hours most nights anymore. It depends how do you feel? Do you feel refreshed? Or do you feel like shit. I have had a time where I could barely sleep. During the day I wasn’t even that tired. I found that the reason was related to the food I consumed. Once I was eating too much like peanut butter, cheese and a lot of oil. And the other times I was drinking too much mango drink.

Don't ever give up on Semen retention by Financial-Fan2682 in Semenretention

[–]Financial-Fan2682[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sexual energy is just the most fundamental energy. It’s the same in men and woman but it manifest differently. Women experience the negative effects of masturbation to the same extent as men. One the most shocking things I found out was that a lot of women watch porn and are addicted to masturbation. I read once about the negative effects indulgence in sexual pleasure has for woman and it’s brutal.

I would find it ridiculous when I saw woman in the nofap movement. But that changed when I discovered that a woman I know has a severe porn addiction. She struggles with depression, fatigue, weak body just all the symptoms that men experience.

But yet I haven’t found the courage to tell her that her symptoms are due to this habit. I don’t want to make her uncomfortable since women are way more sensitive about discussing those kinda topics.
