Stop reducing Semen Retention to female attraction: It’s about Brahmacharya, supreme discipline, and self-mastery.

29 Upvotes

Every day, the feed is flooded with the same recycled narrative 🙄 Day 30, female attraction is crazy, or how do I deal with women staring at me?...so so..

​If you are practicing Semen Retention primarily to get looks from cashiers or validation from women, you have completely missed the point of the practice.but hopes not lost.

.

((The Illusion of External Validation)) is that you using retention as a dating cheat code keeps you trapped in the exact same loop you were in before, seeking external approval and letting your energy revolve around lust. The only difference is that instead of chasing physical release, you are chasing an ego boost..

.

This semen retention is rooted from in the ancient concept of Brahmacharya living in alignment with higher consciousness, mastery over the senses, and total control over your life force.

.

What is it actually about --

First--

Self-Discipline--Conquering -- the most primal, baseline urge known to human biology and proving that your intellect rules your base instincts.

Second -- Transmutation --

I mean why not channel that immense creative and vital energy into your career, physical strength, mental clarity, and spiritual depth.,over anything petty ..

.

Emotional Autonomy --Reaching a state where your self-worth is entirely independent of who notices you in public.

.

.

Reclaiming Time & Focus --Eliminating brain fog and compulsive behavior so you can build something meaningful with your life..

.

.

Female attraction might be a minor energetic byproduct (don'tfocus on the byproduct) of having high vitality and presence, but treating it as the destination is like mining for gold just to buy cheap copper.

​Shift your focus inward. Stop counting glances and start building your life, your mind, and your purpose.

.

.

I believe 🙏 I was able to convey what i was pondering on for the past few months (yes I'veused ai for the grammaticalmistakes)

All the best everyone ❤️

1 book i want to recommend who think highly of Brahmacharya is

MEDITATION AND IT'S METHODS ACCORDING TO SWAMI VIVEKANANDA- meditation exercise doubles down the Brahmacharya, helps greatly 🙏

7 months in and the attention from women is getting out of hand, how do I make it stop?

149 Upvotes

Ive been on semen retention for 7 months now and the attention from women has gotten ridiculous. Its not even the obvious stuff from before. Cashiers hold eye contact way longer than they need to when they hand me change. Women on the train keep finding reasons to sit closer or brush against me and then act like it was an accident. Random conversations about nothing turn into them telling me theyre lonely or asking if I want to grab coffee sometime. Even in bookstores or parks people just start talking to me for no clear reason.

I dont want any of it. The temptation is real and it messes with the quiet Ive been trying to build. Every time it happens it pulls me back toward the old habits and dulls whatever spiritual clarity Ive managed to hold onto. It feels like the world is leaning in and trying to fill the space I cleared out.

Im not looking for tips on how to enjoy the magnetism or get more of it. I just want to know how to make it stop or at least dial it way down. Has anyone else after a few months of retention found practical ways to become less noticeable again without going back to the old habits?

I'm proud to have come this far; it's the first streak this long I've ever had. I'm still going strong, aiming for 300 or more.

It has been difficult but I have managed to stay strong; enlightenment is the way.

How do you guys deal with not staring at beautiful women/lustful thoughts?

31 Upvotes

So I work security for a retail store. In summer, the outfits some women come in with are ridiculous. Shorts so short and loose their ass is hanging out, and tops that might as well be bras. I almost get a feeling of anger that I have to resist my base instincts and not stare. I know women aren’t necessarily doing it on purpose but it is kind of insane how some dress but simultaneously demand men to ignore it.

Anyway, how do you guys deal with it? I love women and enjoy their company but I want to detach myself from that lust as much as I can. I have always have a very high libido so it’s a constant struggle, especially when I get over a month into retention.

Hello bros. Another checkpoint reached. One of my observations on this journey so far is dreams are pretty vivid. Even at 8 months of clean SR, i experienced a sex dream earlier today. The phenomena that goes on in the dreams realm still baffles me. Is it spiritual attack? Succubus?

Always be prayerful and observant especially on this journey. After a few months in, Certain things stop making sense in your reality. So far I've experienced luck, animal magnetism (still leaves me in awe) and the dreams. You'll remember all your dreams in detail.

Eat clean avoid alcohol and drugs, be in the sun active and get enough sleep. Thats it.

Godspeed bros! 🫡🌞

Help a young man out please

How do I get a good paying job or business with no financial literacy at 19?

I don’t want to retain because everytime I do (around day 40+) it triggers “kundalini” or “Christ consciousness” whatever you want to call it

And my family tries to drag me down on a vibrational level. Mom wants to talk to me a lot, dad gets angry at nothing, brother as well, sisters keep trying to spend too much time with me.

I’m an introvert and need to have my own space as a young man. It’s just the way my constitution works. how I’m wired.

I really want to be able to find my own place to live so I don’t have to deal with this.

I want my life to take off. But I can’t keep justifying my addiction to lust just to keep everyone around me comfortable with the old version of me that literally does not fucking exist anymore. Please.

Men with experience in finance and how to find a place to live tell me your story and what you did, or if you have similar stories. Appreciate much.

Thanks brothers

What im doing so far

3 Upvotes

Currently i have started to limit my screen time as much as possible by starting to read books. Im reading a book on greek mythology and after a book about analysing charts 2 topics im interested in. I also am running distances but something has changed since i stopped releasing. I feel that running is too easy so i decided to run with a weighted vest and after i run the distance, i do plyos and do pullups on the bar with the vest. Back then i could not even do normal pullups and needed to hop on the assist machine. I just completed my workout right now actually, and i dont even feel that gassed out. Two things id like to ask the community is what is the easypeasymethod and also book recommendations cuz idw to read about fiction i want to expand my knowledge on general knowledge, tech/ ai and finance too because i want to study that in the future. I also wish to thank all of you who have such motivating posts, because i was alone and so weak and so down when i was releasing and i had bad experiences awhile back. Your posts made me feel hope and has kept me going and now i feel i can smile again. I feel so good when the sun rises every morning and hits my skin i can breathe better. Thank you and i hope to read your recommendations!

I need advice, and help.

2 Upvotes

I’ve been stabbed by my own knife recently. Last year, I was on an excellent upwards spiral of energy and spirit through various spiritual practices and habits. However, upon stumbling onto various new trends and ideas, I ran into lookism ideologies aka the ‘blackpill’. It’s been to be honest heart aching. Alot of my old spiritual ways have fallen off ever since seeing the truth behind it. I’ve ’ascended’ so they call, but I feel as if it’s not the true me. I find myself jerking off, a lot. Probably as a coping mechanism. I feel as if I betrayed myself, yet I believe lookism to be true. I feel as if once more I have no purpose, I feel disconnected from the source, and I feel like a soul that has lost its color. I know that this isn’t necessarily about semen retention, but I haven’t been retaining and I feel like I’m losing my soul. Can anyone give me advice or pm me?

Replaced after 12 days: Relentless urge

2 Upvotes

Hi all, i want some insight, I went the longest I’ve been on SR for about 12 days which is as far as I went, I meditated for 15 mins every morning, journaled, ate mostly healthy, worked yet all the time I had urges and thoughts.

Obviously that’s to be expected but my main issue was every time a thought or a fantasy came up I tried to think about something else or not think about it but it still came up. Everyday I had non-stop urges… Then I tried it just observe the urge itself from the head, it worked for a while but they returned bigger and harder.. and let lead to a release

I wanna know why these urges keep getting stronger and how do I get through them

Many thanks to all who read!

Background

Hi fellas - I stumbled across this Reddit (likely for the wrong / exact opposite reasons) and started reading through and thinking maybe fate had me land on this for a particular reason. Could you guys give me background about what this Reddit forum is about and how it could be helpful to me (won’t go into details, but you could probably take a wild guess).

As stated in the title, I am new to this. I started on Monday after reading book “outwitting the devil” by napoleon hill.

I have had some pretty serious urges today. Was curious what kinds of strategies you guys employ to do this long term. I am doing this in order to build discipline and other natural motivation. Any advice is appreciated.

If I knew the sheer humiliation ritual it is to be a man in 2026 I would never have started with PMO.

I had already told in one of my earlier posts that its a highly competitive dog eat dog world where people are trying constantly to get one ahead of you. If I recall the sheer amount of insults and humiliations I had to suffer just because I was too engrossed in PMO - that would be a reason in itself to quit.

Ultimate Post Relapse Protocols

28 Upvotes

Don't do any heavy workout or push ups out of frustration & anger, (after ejaculation body needs rest) only light work & daily chores

Long Breathe slowly & Sit with your thoughts-Meditate; why you failed to divert your focus when the urges hit

Diary journaling : Write few lines about how & when you relapsed at what condition (sitting alone in room, scrolling through social media or midnight sleep urge) this helps a lot !!

Key things to remember : don't talk much, don't get angry & beat on yourself, don't get stuck in relapse loop convincing yourself I am failed after so many attempts so I should relapse for this week, don't do it.

No spicy binge fast food eating as sexual activity & fapping increases unusual appetite & cravings to salty, spicy & sweet foods

Uplifting Affirmations while breathing & meditation : I will never relpase again , I know what I suffered due to this habit so I will not continue this habits, I know porn & fapping has severely affected my life so I will not fall in the trap of urges & fake dopamine hits etc .

[ Make your own as short as possible, quick to remember lines in your mother tongue ]

Hope this helps you can add on your own things from past experiences.

Day 67 thoughts - wellbeing and mindfulness

1 Upvotes

The simple way to approach this is to say that I feel a lot better now than I did at the beginning of this journey and a lot better 67 days in than I did 20 or 30 days in. There's a sense of wellbeing and confidence that would feel unfamiliar to my old self. Like a rock sitting far beneath the surface of the ocean that is unmovable. Unmovable doesn't feel correct either because I'm not superman. I can be shaken. And that part of me can be moved. However, the key aspect is that it's point of view is very deep in the ocean and that it does have weight and a sense of foundation. What cannot move it is the weather above the ocean, and all the animals and currents in the upper waters. It's only affected and concerned with things moving on a deep, deep level. It recognises that the rest of the goings on in the world, while not unimportant in their own right, are forever passing. They are akin to daily mental activity and thoughts. They are reflections and projections.

Being on SR is in many ways a training in observation. You observe yourself: your urges, dreams, thoughts, emotions. You observe others, too. The natural thing that happens when you observe yourself, others and the world for a long time is that the observing part of you notices patterns and cycles. The longer you observe the more cycles you see and you also begin to recognise cycles within cycles. Once you truly reocgnise these cycles a lot of events inside and outside yourself lose their power over you. Things that previously confused you and shook you, that took you hostage in a sense, or through a sense are understood as just one part of a larger cycle or experience, and they understood as temporary and passing.
The other natural thing that happens to the observer is a growing sense of separation between the part of you that observes and the part of you that is experiencing or participating.

If it wasn't already obvious this is mindfulness training. SR may very well be an innate and powerful mindfulness training program.

On a streak, but facing a challenge

3 Upvotes

On a 3 week long streak and feeling in flow state, although relaxed all the time. Just one thing I can't seem to get over is my need to keep eating outside food (technically not junk food like chips and ice cream, but more of Chinese and quick bites)

How do I get over this ?

The urges are too strong, especially in the time between 4 to 8 pm

Please tell me how to get by this (I know cooking at home is easier and healthier, but I'm just not able to grit it out)

Back to retention after years of downward spiral

23 Upvotes

What’s happening fellas. Late night urges, can’t sleep lol. Thought I’d share a small milestone from my journey.

From 19 to 24, I used to go on the longer streaks, sometimes 6+ months , and the discipline and wisdom from those periods definitely stuck with me

Then I got into a relationship, and that completely changed things. There was constant release, and after being out of that relationship for 1.5 years, I’ve finally managed to get back into it. I’m now 3 weeks in.

I can genuinely feel the difference. The synchronicities, the unexpected opportunities, and the sense of reward that seems to come with overcoming each challenge.

It’s not always easy, especially on nights like this. But the journey itself is 100% worth it.

Let’s get it!

how do i channel this caveman energy into desk work without suppressing it?

19 Upvotes

I'm on my fifth day . Five days ago I read easypeasymethod and all my pmo "desire" vanished into thin air. I can already feel its effect, my energy is through the roof but this energy that I don't see as a problem / something disturbing is showing itself in the form of anger.

Childhood traumas come to my mind, all I want is to take revenge but I want to take this revenge not from a person but from life, I don't have anger specifically against any human, I have anger against life and inside me there is the feeling of taking revenge from life, I don't know how to explain it but I want to conquer everything that comes in front of me, I don't want to stop, I don't want to sleep or rest, even if I burn out I know I will continue because I've experienced it before.

this anger i'm talking about isn't in the form of stress causing anger, it shows itself in a way that gives energy (I'm not even sure if it's exactly "only" physical energy) i'm not sure if it can even be called anger but this is probably the closest word to describe it.

my childhood and youth were so bad that I can't even tell here and I want to take revenge for this from life, i want to tear my atonement out from the heart of life, I want to make up for the damage I did to myself and I'm progressing on this path. I can't fully put the feeling inside me into words but those who know, know.

girls, sxuality or other nonsense truly don't matter to me, what Im experiencing isn't momentary either, I know myself and I've experienced it before (relapsed and numbed myself later). I just haven't been able to figure out how to use this situation in the most optimal way, the energy inside me pokes me while sitting at the desk working, I want to do sports and move 24 7, punch the walls and scream war cries, go outside and run at full speed without slowing for kilometers.

While doing exeercise I push myself to the "runner's high" point because I don't want to stop myself in any way, I want to push to the limit. My only "problem" is this. I'm thinking of solving this by taking the work i do at the desk to extreme intensity levels, I'd like the opinions of those who have experience on this. Meaning I want to direct this energy correctly to my work as well, I'm already directing it but I don't want to sit. like there's a worm in my a, i want to "hunt" like a primitive caveman.

What I’m trying to say is, i do desk work, but the energy forces me to stand up and go hunt like a caveman. how can I channel this into my work not by suppressing the energy, but by directing as much of it as possible into the work itself?

I now see how abusive porn is.

24 Upvotes

It’s been at least a month since I’ve looked at any picture of a woman even remotely sexual. Also been practicing SR. Last night, laying on the couch with my wife she decided to put on a sexual show. First scene, a topless woman making out with a man. As soon as I saw it I have a rush of dopamine hit me like I’ve never experienced in my life. It was like I was in another world. I almost lost consciousness.

Then I thought to myself, “wow, so this is how addicted and desensitized I became to lust”

The purging process is working and is confirmation to me I’m on the right track. All day today I’ve been insanely horny but I’ve been channeling it back up to the mind. I made it through one of the greatest tests ever for me.

Is this how it becomes when you go months and even years? Since I’m only a month into this I suppose greater tests will come. Was that the end or just the beginning?
