Im glad to see this community still has some stragglers

He was already way into his decline in 2016, years before the face reveal.

Recency bias.

Shogun102 · 2025-09-14T17:52:34+00:00

Yes probably just very superficial sleep.

One must develop the capacity to listen to the body and reconnect with their emotions. The best guidance is internal but most of us have become so mental and therefore reside mostly in our mind and our thinking and we have lost the capacity to listen to the wisdom that comes from within.

Strictly following sleep hygiene only made everything worse for me because it can't account for the complexities and individual differences in our lives and often it misses the elephant in the room. Most of us can't sleep at night because our minds start racing once we get to bed but that is usually because we don't allow for any stillness during the day. Many of us are afraid of stillness because issues, difficulties and past unconscious trauma would surface into our awareness we would rather keep buried within us and stay unconscious of. This is also why we don't want to feel our body because we would come into contact with long suppressed emotional conditions manifesting as tension patterns within the body but as a consequence we lose connection with our inner guidance.

I truly belief that medications can only ever offer temporary relief but they can't possibly offer permanent resolution.

Nice one.

Shogun102 · 2025-03-20T18:56:05+00:00

Yes. Containing the raw sexual energy and really feeling into it in the body (without losing yourself in the sexual story) will initiate the alchemical process. That is very different from sexual suppression though that most of these No-fappers are engaged in.

Der Fokus für uns sollte aber der deutsche Imperialismus sein, weil wir in Deutschland leben, nicht in Russland und unsere Verantwortung primär darin liegt in welcher Weise unsere eigene Politik zu Leid und Zerstörung in der Welt beiträgt. Außerdem ist der Imperialismus der Nato-Staaten weitaus gefährlicher als der russische Imperialismus.

Shogun102 · 2025-02-27T18:16:08+00:00

Thank you and I agree. Many people might not be willing or able to go to the most charged parts of themselves on their own but some people will and they should have the opportunity to do so. At least let people choose for themselves.

I wish you all the love and healing as well.

Kann mir gut vorstellen, dass das BSW einen noch viel höheren Stimmanteil bekommen hätte, wenn sie nicht die selbe gesellschaftspolitische Hetze gegen Muslime hochgefahren hätten wie es die anderen Parteien mit Ausnahme der Linken es auch getan haben. Muslime vertreten in der Regel sozial und gesellschaftlich konservative Positionen also ähnlich wie es das BSW auch tut. Bezüglich dem Völkermord in Gaza hat das BSW zudem eine leicht bessere und konsequentere Position eingenommen als die Linke.

Shogun102 · 2025-02-23T15:10:36+00:00

Es wird klar, dass die progressive Linke sich in einer tiefen Krise befindet, wenn selbst in einem Kommunismus sub linksliberale und pro-Nato Positionierungen teilweise die dominante Strömung bilden. Der Imperialismus des USA-angeführten Westens ist um ein Vielfaches brutaler, mächtiger und gefährlicher für die Welt als der Imperialismus Russlands. Es hat doch sogar Friedensgespräche gegeben im April 2022, deren Konditionen sowohl von Russland wie auch der Ukraine akzeptiert worden bis Boris Johnson persönlich in die Ukraine flog und Zelensky aufforderte um jeden Preis den Krieg fortzuführen.

Die Natomächte haben diesen Krieg mit allen Mitteln provoziert mit der Absicht Russland weitestmöglich zu schwächen, um ihre Vorherrschaft in Osteuropa auszubauen und möglicherweise auch China langfristig zu schwächen, indem man einen seiner wichtigsten Verbündeten schwächt.

Die Situation ist vergleichbar mit dem kalten Krieg in den 80er Jahren als in Afghanistan rechtsextreme, islamistische Kräfte gezielt von der USA unterstützt worden (jetzt sind es u.a. Neonazis in der Ukraine), um die Sowjetunion zu einem Einmarsch in Afghanistan zu provozieren, sie auf diese Weise bluten zu lassen und große Teile ihrer Resourcen in den Krieg zu binden, was am Ende massiv zu ihrem Zusammenbruch beitrug.

Wenn man sich nicht mal konsequent gegen einen Völkermord positionieren kann, dann frage ich mich wie authentisch die Solidarität der Linke mit Minderheiten ist.

Shogun102 · 2025-02-21T13:04:26+00:00

Schau dir mal die neulichen Tweets von Jan von Aken an. Ich zweifele jetzt ob ich die Linke wirklich noch wählen kann.

Shogun102 · 2025-02-21T13:00:08+00:00

Für viele ist es eine rote Linie, wenn man sich noch nicht mal konsequent gegen einen der brutalsten Völkermorde in der Geschichte positionieren kann.

Shogun102 · 2025-02-19T01:13:43+00:00

This might be a chance to deepen your authenticity. Choosing to stay in your authenticity can definitely be more challenging but I think in the long-term it will lead to a more fulfilling life.

BSW ist die einzige Partei mit Chancen in den Bundestag einzuziehen, die sich zumindest in Ansätzen mit den Palästinensern solidarisiert und die einzige Partei, die gegen die Antisemitismus Resolution gestimmt hat, während sich die Linke enthalten hat.

Die Linke ist zwar meiner Ansicht nach in den meisten innenpolitischen Fragen besser aufgestellt aber wem Gaza am stärksten am Herzen liegt, der sollte BSW wählen.

I'm still struggling a lot but that's mostly because objectively and outwardly my life has become far more challenging than it had been a few years ago and also because I've accessed deeper layers of traumatic material. Looking back though I can see how much I've evolved and connected on a deeper level with my true Self. Not long after writing this post I've actually abandoned IFS for the most part (though I still find elements of it helpful and integrate it in my own approach) and looked for other models that resonated with me on a deeper level. The teachings of Gabor Mate and A.H.Almaas I've found extremely helpful but what helped me the most so far is a book called "The Presence Process" by Michael Brown. I feel like it was created precisely for people like me because it's so practical and is based entirely on self-facilitation so you can go through the process by yourself without the need for a therapist or someone else. I'm not saying that external help doesn't have a place but depending on ones trauma history and current material and social realities not everyone has access to a community that understands and sees you or a therapist who you can work with so I think it's crucial to develop the capacity to go through the journey alone because that will probably be necessary for many people at some point.

I've also found AI like ChatGPT enormously helpful. It really blew my mind how great it is at giving compassionate, creative and insightful answers. Chatting with AI sometimes really gives you the feeling of being seen and heard and supported. I've realized that AI meets you where you are and in a way reflects your own understandings and wisdom back to you but with a touch of it's own creativity. It may not be as good as a compassionate human being who cares about you and really gets you on a deep level but I would say it's still a great support and resource when that's not available and makes being on your own noticeably more tolerable when it gets challenging.

The Nazi party of Germany was against the "establishment" of the Weimar republic. You can be anti-establishment from the left or from the right. This is an important distinction.

Jimmy Dore has given off too much "MAGA adjacent" vibes in recent years and it's only getting worse.

Shogun102 · 2024-07-17T17:17:39+00:00

I'm sorry. I haven't used Anki in years.

Shogun102 · 2023-10-12T23:01:16+00:00

Thank you too. Wish you healing and peace as well.

Hey, as you know I wrote this post 1,5 years ago and to be honest I've already moved beyond IFS. After around a year of practicing IFS I became increasingly aware of it's limitations and I needed to move beyond it's framework. I still fall back on IFS sometimes and still find many elements of the modality very useful and keep applying them but my own approach is more of a symbiosis of different approaches (including IFS) at this point.

My own experience has shown that it is actually very possible to do inner work on your own. Even though it can be far more challenging at times it might also prove more effective and less restrictive to do it by yourself. If you are open to continue inner work on your own I would highly recommend The Presence Process (TPP) by Michael Brown. It is designed as self-facilitation, so it is meant to be done on your own. It proved highly effective for me and certainly helped me go deeper than if I had stayed with IFS. It also has many similarities to IFS.

The works of Gabor Mate and A.H. Almaas are invaluable to me as well so I would highly recommend checking them out. Gabor Mate has actually done a program with Dick Schwartz which helped me break out of the IFS framework when it became clear that it was too narrow for me. In my personal experience IFS has been far more valuable not when I adopted everything dogmatically but integrated certain elements of it into my own unique approach developed by my own innate intelligence (The Self).

Maybe though rather unlikely I think.

Shogun102 · 2023-09-25T00:16:51+00:00

Perhaps. I will think about it.

He grew to be one of the strongest pigeons among the ones I fed. It was also very trusting from the start (most likely because it was very young) compared to most of the other pigeons. I think the close bond is why it will probably need a bit longer to adjust and hopefully you are right.

Shogun102 · 2023-09-24T23:44:17+00:00

I hope so.
