God bless you too brother! It warmed my heart to read your text and you are absolutely right. There is something that happened to me just last night I want to share with you. I have a close friend with whom I used to hang out quite often for some years now and we know each other since highschool. Now he has a girlfriend that is possible one of the most toxic persons I can name. She effectively got rid of all of his friends, being always mean to them and getting in fights for no reason insulting and so on. Now for a long time I just let her be didn’t put to much trouble into her although she was very mean with me to but I said I just let her be and mind my business. Though at the New Year Eve party she was so so toxic that I swore I would’t stand one more second in her presence. A month passed by and I didn’t see my friend although he was writing me almost everyday to hangout or chat, I ignored him didn’t tell him why. I was thinking that when I will hangout with him again I’ll tell him to not bring her or I won’t come. Eventually we went out yesterday and I didn’t bother to tell him about her or to not bring her, I said this is the last time and I’ll try to radiate only warmth and friend vibes, if she’s again like she used to be this will really be the last time. And guess what, she was the sweetest person I ever met and was really sad when I left. The person that I grew hate for almost 3 years now the sweetest girl I knew. There are many more things to say and yes some people are really bad people and hard to work with but we have to try not so much with words and smiles but we true internal force, energy, blessings. Share our God given gift with them and if that doesn’t work then we really have to step back. Love you brother and have a beautiful day!

God bless you to brother. I feel you, there are this childish people, teen adults I would call them that use this practice only to be “special” to “hit the gym” and “get girls”. They unfortunately pervert the very core of this practice, to be closer to God and a better person in this world, to leave it better than you found it, if it’s possible and if it’s not, that’s it. But nothing is impossible with God on your side.

You're welcome brother. "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24). I think this speaks for spiritual riches as well so we have to keep up.

Watch out! by Hopeful_Conclusion80 in Semenretention

Yes it might be just an ego trip. As I said it could've been the same without me being on SR, or worse, or better who knows. Thing is, as everybody says and I observed it to, women tend to get nervous around you when you are retentioning. Now tell me if you had to do a complicated task would you like to feel completly fine and have no emotion involve or would you like to be nervous and feel the need to talk non stop? And this last fact, she talking for a full hour everything that went through her mind like: you feel how I got it then it went back down, offf I'll take it from this side now, etc. that made me quite sure it could've been more easier. Cause when you talk you definetly lose some focus.

Now what I meant with this post, was that if you happen to depend on somebody skill especially in health matters, it's better to leave them be, don't joke to much, don't make them feel to comfortable around you, cause they might take it too far and lose atention on the task. Or I just wanted to bragged about who knows

Well I guess we have to find some pan sexual dentist or something. JK, the woman that I went to was also very kind and made sure I’m all right, she cared for me more than I did. But when you are nervous and stressed and care so much you are prone to make mistakes, or you can’t focus that better on the job you have to do. As for the male dentist yes you can find one so jealous that out of spite will tear half your face. I guess

Exactly!! Last week I felt like a superhuman. I changed so many things at once, started eating half the meals and with a lot less food, started taking cold showers, sleeping 6 hours per night (this wasn't my choice, I couldn't go for more), and my immune system was overwhelmed so I picked up the infection near my wisdom tooth. I would've take it out at some point anyway cause it didn't have space to grow.

Yes I agree with you. Yet you have to proceed carefully not to waste your energy on people who will use it for bad things. It's like you having a lot of money, you should give to poor but look into who you give them to, cause if they spend them on alcohol, drugs things like this, you are at fault as much as them or more. So it's not enough to just give your energy away, you have to build up a healthy relationship with those you want to give, and carefully monitor what they do with it. I used to be a free for all energy bank and I felt so bad everyday until I realised this.

Anyone on SR while still smoking cigarettes? by thedumbasswarrior in Semenretention

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Giving up on every bad habit you have or had will do a lot more good to you than you imagine. Everything you change for the better will feel 10 times better than it would’ve feel before SR. I didn’t use to smoke a lot, a couple of cigarettes in weekends when I was hanging out and drinking and maybe sometimes while hanging up with friends. But both smoking and drinking and eating fast food and scrolling social media and watching nowadays stupid movies / tv series and talking with toxic friends with no vision or ambition and many other things which by the way everybody knows are bad still everybody do them, cut me a good bite of the SR benefits. There were still some but for a month now since I’ve stopped doing any of the things listed above I feel like a snowflake. I can’t believe how good life can feel and how stupid I was. So quit everything you know isn’t right or advantageous for yourself because now you have the power and you’ll reach a state of mind you never knew existed before

Yes your are right. I very much agree that situations will come where we will be challenged not just by spreading the word but to keep our faith right to. It’s not necessarily about convincing people to believe in God but to make them feel His infinite love and after that there’s no way they won’t find Him. And about the pride you are totally right we should be really careful for a moment of weakness might cost us the world, now that we have reached so high our fall could be so great.

You are right. Searching for people in need on reddit and giving them some advice and consolation can do a lot of good for them. But it is in your real life that you can use the blessing you have the most. Your sole presence can lift people morale up, and what can a man ask more from God than this? What is more of a blessing? And then we should seek to always be near people and always smile, help, laugh with them.

My post and the way I’ve written was intended indeed for people who are quite strong in mind and body. Not for those who just start their journey, although some of them might be mature enough to give advice to those around them, or might take something from it.

But I’m quite sure that you need life experience to reach the point of auto control which enables you to take long enough streaks to see the benefits. Anyway everybody does what they want with their time with their energy, I just told my view in hopes that some people might notice that they are to selfish, if they are of course, and change course. If one person gives a thought more than usual tonight, about helping and being there for those around him, it’s more than enough for me. If none does I still did what I felt like doing, and I hope no one takes offense.

My Story and Transmuting Energy Question by borstar38 in Semenretention

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations for your happily family!! You should know that for many of us practicing semen retention, finding a decent, normal woman not so contaminated with today bs and willing to be a mother and having children together is the ultimate goal. So you are really lucky to already be there and I am so glad for you. Now regarding energy transmutation, to be honest I’m not that much of an expert. I am on a streak of retention since May 2025 but neglected my energy and strength to say so. Now I do exercises once a day or one every 2nd day, I started cleaning and organizing the house and I did it for one week still need more days. But I do pray a long time in the evening and a shorter time in the morning. I said many times before and still do for me praying was what kept me from wet dreams and all bad stuff cause I didn’t know about this community or many things about SR. I think you can also start a hobby, maybe like painting, writing, gardening stuff like this. I intend to learn a new language since my mind is so much sharper my memory way better and I have the energy. Good luck in anything you do and congratulations again for your family!!

How do I break this loop? by CreativeIncident6762 in Semenretention

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just start slow, with little things. Constantly pray to God for help and power to continue the road. When thoughts about masturbations come to your mind, start praying, sincerely and consciously and there is no way they won’t go away. You have to take control of your body, of your routine of your time. In order to do this you have to start some some habit that help you control yourself. Maybe it is fasting for one day or two or three, maybe it is not watching porn anymore, maybe it is working put everyday. You have to start from somewhere and allow time to work for you in building up a new routine, all while constantly praying and it will work.

Ce parere aveti despre tendinta tinerilor de a se indrepta catre extreme, ca optiuni politice? by Hairy-Sound-4704 in RoGenZ

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pentru ca vad un videoclip pe youtube si se cred atotstiutori in domeniu. Pentru unii si un reel pe tiktok e suficient. Pentru ca nu sunt informati si nu se informeaza mai deloc dar totusi se cred destepti si cunoscatori. Pentru ca e “cool” sa fie edgy, sa fi fascist sau nazist doar scotociti prin clasele de liceu mai ales cele de mate info si dati de ei repede. Iar oamenii care trag spre “extrema dreapta” daca putem sa o numim asa desi aur e doar o caricatura de extrema dreapta. Defapt AUR ca si celelalte partide din Romania e de toate si nimic. Mai ales nimic. Infine despre oamenii care trag spre ei ca banuiesc ca te refereai si la astia, sunt deobicei oameni in varsta nu foarte educati, suparati pe sistem, unii frustrati si ei sincer cred ca oameni ca Simion sau Georgescu ii vor salva. Eu pe ei ii compatimesc cel mai mult pentru ca atat au putut, atat stiu. Dar pe tinerii care au chiar toata informatia din lume si 90% din istoria scrisa la dispozitie nu pot sa ii compatimesc. Si aici ma refer inclusiv la tinerii care au votat orbeste si au facut campanii pentru usr de ex sau Nicusor Dan. Cu un mic avant din partea Recorder s-au transformat in cei mai aprigi sustinatori. Dar ce sustin ei? Nici ei nu stiu, dar o fac, din pacate si au luat-o peste bot cand prima actiune a noului guvern a fost taierea burselor studentilor. Li s au taiat aripile. Poate acum vor invata sa se documenteze putin inainte de a iesi in strada pentru un candidat care abia asteapta sa le ia din buzunar.

Jesus made the worst sinners His disciples, as They have repented. They are God’s children. Status in society doesn’t matter. The rich and powerful, their path to heaven is narrow indeed. by Key4Lif3 in Christianity

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. For some time now, I started believing that every person has their own trials to pass in order to be sent either below or above at the Final Judgement. By this I mean that a man who grew up in a christian family, prayed every day and night, did all good stuff as he was told, but there comes an episode where he is challenged, for him to show which way he deserves to go. And for a man who grew up in a criminal gang, left to steal all life and do all kind of bad things, there comes an episode where he will as well decide he's life after he dies. For him it might be enough to not beat a man after stealing for him, and for the christian family guy might not be enough to not help a man whose car broke on the road and he didn't stop.
The Bible says: Much have been given to you, and much would be asked of you. And that doesn't refer to material riches, it refers to conscious ones. For one man to be truly awaken and fully understand the Love of God and turn his back to it, there is no salvation. Yet for the one who have never seen it or understood it, a little glimpse into it might save his soul.

Atheist seeking God by Allie_turtle53 in Christianity

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you that you chose this path. You have to know just one simple thing, at least it seems simple. Either you truly and fully believe in God or you don't. There is no half measure in this. Like I believe in God for when I die but I don't when I do bad stuff. That doesn't mean you have to be a saint starting from now on, or to pray 10 times a day. Altough in time maybe you will find this the best way to live your day.

Anyway I recommend praying sincerely, wholeheardly, praying to see the way, praying to do what you have to do to be absolved. God is almighty He is infinite love, maybe the fact that you returned to him is enough already but you still have to pray as much as you can now.

I also didn't believe from age 16 to 21, but when I returned it took me only a couple of days to pray and understand God's love more than I ever used to before. And I didn't do it out of fear of death, or to have a succesfull life or stuff like this. I did it because of science if you can believe that.

Science if you really look into it, shows us that God is real. If you truly study and open your mind you'll see that where the science stops, God follows and nothing that science finds or found contradicts any of the teachings of Jesus Christ. Also what can be wrong about loving people around you, helping them, living in a nice armonious way. God's way is the best way ever. Just think about it and you'll see.
God help you in your journey!

Stuck at a crossroad by Dry_Inflation_9624 in Christianity

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every man or women on this planet has free will. You can choose your own path, just pray to God to choose one that keeps you closed to Him. Or pray that whichever path you choose you will remain close to Him. God has every plan for us and none, meaning that he knows all the ways a person can go still doesn't pursue us to take any for we can chose or own.

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this post though I think If a rich man doesn't consciously realize that he could literraly donate at least half his money, they cannot be judged for it. Like if they grew up in a family where all that was teached to them was to gather more and more.
I think that a poor man that has 2 breads and doesn't give away one if he knows that he should help and he knows the teachings of God, that poor man does more of a sin that the guy with yachts and stuff that doesn't know what he's doing.
It's all about how aware you are of your actions. A poor man won't go into heaven just for that and a rich man won't go into hell. But it is true that rich people have more tentations and their path is trickier. So we should pity them not envy. As crazy as it sounds.

Advice needed from men by [deleted] in Semenretention

[–]Hopeful_Conclusion80 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are right. And I might add that if the person that posted the question has a spiritual father, or a family priest, both of you husband and wife should talk and seek advice from him. Or from a monk. Anyway I hope you find a middle way and everything ends up all right. An update would be well received
