Main Disc. Thread - HERO Origins: Sage and a Blade (Now Available! Q Core for Customs Available!)

Yeah imma go with wisdom haha

lol glad I could help someone out

A great shift in how i perceive my life.

In short: i have started to look at life as it is, what life is actually offering instead how i wanted it to be

Literally this shift was all of a sudden
So i was bragging about my own life , how i hated my college, questioned its subjects, how i was living life in a 720 p low settings with lots of stuttering and sufferings
How the pandemic led me to my downfall, how i could ve entered in a better college etc etc.

And even i complaint about my laptop , how i could end up getting a gaming laptop for the same price but my father and cousin didnt allow which only allowed me to play modern games on low settings.

Anyway. Here’s the shift, i begin to accept these things occuring in my life,its like i hated these things because the situations and events were not playing according to me, but i understood its sometimes not what you want, its what you ‘get’ in life. At some point you got no choice but to accept and live with these things in your life

Now , as i am seeing things as it is instead how i want it to be. When this happened,i started to see so many opportunities in my life, even playing games on low settings became acceptable because it is what it is,

Same way i accepted my low quality life and i am just looking at the opportunities this low quality life is offering me.

Woah! I am feeling very satisfied and motivated to move toward my goals

These shifts happened befire but not as deeply and in a profound way like this

that’s a great result!

i’ve been watching stoic videos lately and there’s one concept that gets repeated a lot:
“life will happen, you are the one who chooses how you react to it”
I can’t remember the exact quotes but they are something like that.

thank you

And yes it is also one of the core teaching in Buddhism. Observing things as they are!!

Excited to use this sub in the future. Just started playing Call of Duty consistently and want to get better but also, and obviously, dance. Excited to use it! Once my experiment is over I’ll be adding this to my stack!

You will dance with light saber or sabers after this :slight_smile:

When acting out of the sense of nobility but being perceived as weak, the very same act is judged as being a sucker whilst when being perceived as strong, it’s a virtue.

Humans understand power way better than morality since the former is sensed on the visceral level whilst the latter pertains to the domain of reason.

Ran my first loop a couple hours ago and felt strong sensations on the crown of my head and a kind of pulsating wave downward towards my heart from my head. For awhile afterwards I felt more conscious of a third person awareness observing my body and mind while I went about things…haven’t had that kind of shift from running any subs previously and I meditate while listening to most of them. It was interesting.

Had some cake leftover from a mini-celebration last night, and instead of eating it for breakfast as planned it’s getting tossed out, I made hardboiled eggs and got back to clean eating.

Will report back later after training tonight if anything noticeable comes up.



The timing of this release is incredible because over the last couple weeks…

…in training, we’ve started to revisit fundamentals in sword drawing and taking a deeper dive into the strategies of facing multiple enemy;
…been carrying a pocket-sized Book of Five Rings and pondering more deeply on the lessons;
…uncovered a deep fear of becoming corrupted through business success and riches and got an instant opportunity to prove to myself which path I’d take;
…made a commitment to take legal action on an issue that will require my staying in honor and integrity and following through for as long as it takes – something that is easy to say but I can look back and see all the times I’ve failed;

…in all of those areas, this sub is the perfect fit to boost my development.

Looking forward to at least a couple cycles with HERO Origins.

Technique Mastery:

I hated working on my technique, it always seems useless to kick again and again and again, it was because i never saw improvement.

Now i see that perfect technique is something i can achieve and very easily.

Recon…

The WB/HOSB combo is not working, but I do enjoy the added weekend fun.

If I replaced my weekend WB micro loop with Primal would it conflict with HOSB?

In my mind, being a primal male is the opposite of being a man with virtues.

Think about a primal caveman and compere it into a virtues samurai.

Primal to me was never about being a primal male or caveman. It was always about connecting with that primal energy and bringing it into the moment.

I think one can connect with that energy and still be virtuous. One can be an honorable primal male.

Technically, you’re right.

But only if we treat them as static in time.

In the same way, Day is technically the ‘opposite’ of Night. Yet in alternation they combine to create a great cycle. Because things can happen in each, that cannot happen as well in the other.

A really interesting stack would be Primal, Khan Black, and Hero Origin.

Primal would stir up the deeper levels and forces within you. Stirring the silt at the bottom of the river.

Khan Black would gather, harness, and refine that energy and those forces.

Hero Origin would channel it into your highest self.

The tension between them would generate energetic charge and charisma.

Of course you can be a primal/sexual honorable man.

But i think it will be much more difficult to exude the 7 virtues of bushido while being so primal and sexual.

Being primal and the primal subliminal is all about living in the moment, enjoying your self, pleasure, attracting females and having sex with them.

While Hero is all about self mastery, discipline, will power, control, doing difficult stuff for the purpose of self improvement.

Primal to me is more hedonistic and Hero is more purposeful.

Of course if you can control your sexual energy and channel it to self mastery i believe you will have more motivation to achieve it, but for that i would use Khan Black and not Primal.

I agree.

It is difficult to integrate polarized forces. But if we can manage to do it, the result is electricity.

Haha. I’m not running that stack. But I think it would be interesting.

As I considered the possibility of the combination, I was actually thinking of Toshiro Mifune’s character from the 7 Samurai: Kikuchiyo.

Yes. A challenging combination, to say the least.

I actually considered doing Hero + KB but i chose Hero + Cfw instead.

As cfw removes energetic blocks like KB.

I would rather be a primal caveman and draw pictures of naked women to the cave’s walls :slight_smile:
