Thanks for clearing it up Mystress.

Do you have any advice on how we should proceed? Pick up from the current lesson but in the original tantra and not the tantra2020 course? Take a break, go outside enjoy the sun and wait until you are done with the rework?

Hallo Mystress,

I wanted to do a new FST lesson this week but when I moved forward the site only contained the different headlines and no text. You can see what I mean in this screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/EKbB3p1
Also when I go back to any previous lesson that I have bookmarked it is the same. I have tried it on a few different browsers and computers but the result is always the same. There is no link to the video either and the only thing that changes is the description of the topic like "Entities" or "Holy Trinity" depending on the lesson. Otherwise it always looks like in the screenshot. Last week it was working fine.

Is anyone experiencing the same maybe? Or is this only happening on my end?

Thanks and Merry Christmas, Lukas

Happy Belated Birthday Mystress!

Have a great birthday week with lots of fun )

Hehe... snake molting dead skin.
Goddess path is cyclical - moon cycle - wax and wane.
Old ego self gets ripped apart to make space for new self which will be shed once its purpose is completed.
Rinse. Lather. Repeat.

Crown chakra is often described as 1000 petal lotus which is a metaphor for 'ever blossoming' learning through Higher guidance.
In the K-path, learning happens throughout our life and through surrender we are continually evolved in ways that Goddess sees fit for us.
We cannot always make sense of why we are going through an experience immediately.
Complete surrender means we do not have to understand everything.
You lay all your worries at Goddess' feet and it's Hers to deal with.

The basics of FST daily spiritual practice is actually simple (but powerful) once you develop it as a habit: dump overload, ground, do retro, read FST lesson, eat healthy, get some exercise, have some artistic outlet, be kind to your body, and practice gratitude every time you worry about future.
If you are having a bad day, then just ground, practice gratitude, and do what feels good for your body (even if that means just being couch potato for a day).

Quote from: Sava on Nov 30, 2024, 04:54:47 PMOn a different note, I really do love my job. I love teaching people how to snowboard, it is so rewarding when people learn because of me. I take great care of my students and it really shows in their progress. Often I find myself so happy on the mountain, where I'm naturally smiling. I am so grateful for my position.
Training for my next level of certification begins soon. We have the option to attend "clinics" with a trainer on off days or after work to prepare for the next certification. I really do love learning all of the technical skills and people skills associated with being a Snowboard Instructor.
I've noticed people treat me differently when I'm grounded, especially women, I find they smile at me more.

So happy to hear this.
When you do what you love, you shine brilliantly and others get attracted to that shiny happy energy.

When we are grounded, we are less likely to hanker for other peoples attention.
When we are grounded, we don't act desperate and clingy.
When we are grounded, we don't have to use manipulation to get other peoples attention or admiration.
When we are grounded, we are less likely to be swayed by other peoples emotional influences and remain true to ourselves.
When we are grounded, we do not have to give in to feeling threatened by or jealous of other peoples achievements.
When we are grounded, we do not have to remain bound by fear of failure.

So it is not surprising that people respond more positively towards you when you are grounded.
Those who want the peace of grounding will be drawn towards you when you remain grounded.

Quote from: Sava on Nov 30, 2024, 04:54:47 PMI guess I would be open to a relationship but I honestly am a bit more interested in getting back in touch with my DB. I used to get fantastic visions of Her at the beginning of my awakening but have lost touch as the years progressed. Maybe this is because I am starting to stabilize. In the beginning it was like ebbs and flows, now when I am grounded in daily life, weeks feel live a river flowing steadily. Life feels like a series of circles that I am surrounded by and influencing. It is hard to describe but is very tranquil. I am becoming more stable, in every aspect of living, work flows smoothly, relationships, short encounters.

Erotic energy expresses itself in many ways and does not always need a sexual release.
I used to get worried about the ebb-and-flow my sexual libido.
Mystress then explained to me that erotic energy will flow wherever creative work is needed.
So sometimes I will feel asexual (and usually means I am very passionately invested in some creative project).
Then my libido comes back after some time on its own and I feel like a teen again. LOL.
Sexual libido also depends on external things like stress, diet, medication, and sleep.
Anyway.. it is normal for sexual libido to ebb and flow during K process.

Here is a Tantra ritual for men I learned from Mystress.
Men can masturbate and shoot their seed aimed at the fiery crystal of the Earth.
You can physically spill seed on ground (assuming you are in private and not breaking local laws) or just imagine shooting your seed into the fiery crystal of the Earth.

Happy to hear your progress.
Have a lovely day.

Namaste
Gopi

Happy birthday Mystress!

Wishing you good health and lots of laughter.

Thank you for being my teacher and my friend.

Love you very much.

Namaste
Gopi

Thank you Gopi for the kind words.

I have accepted that the ear pain is something I cannot change. And I am learning to accept that there are just some things I cannot change. My declining health I cannot directly change. All I can do is continue taking great care of my body and speaking/thinking positively about all that has happened to me recently.

I cannot control how others will perceive me, I can only be myself and take all the fire and flames that come with it. Instead of trying to appease others. I'm learning to just accept myself for who I am and leaving the rest behind. "Growth" sometimes feels like the word wrong to describe my process of surrender. It feels more like a reductive process, layers of my ego being pulled away to reveal who I truly am ~~

I stopped watching porn and masturbation is much better now. I don't feel guilty or ashamed afterwards.

I used to have a lot of great sex in the past and while it was very sensually pleasureful, I never really found a deep connection with those women. For my next sexual relationship, I am going to be more picky about who I share myself with. I want my next intimate relationship to be with a woman who is spiritually awakened, someone I really connect with, respect and care about.

I'm looking forward to getting to progressing with FST and getting back in touch with DB (Her) and my Higher Self (He) in the meantime. I am going to start Roleplay and Responsibility tonight hopefully.

Quote from: SavaI'm kind of an emotional man, and being a straight male the societal pressure has always been "be a manly man" and I've succumbed to that plenty of times and denied my true self.

Louise Hay suggested that allergies can be a manifestation of denying your own power when confronted with changes.
Men who deny their feminine aspects and women who deny their masculine aspects will experience negative impacts in their spiritual growth.
Also Hay suggested that ear related symptoms can be a manifestation of anger, not wanting to hear inner Guidance, and feeling out of balance with the changes surrounding you.

From a Tantra perspective, your thoughts and words have profound impact on your physical and emotional well-being.
Be compassionate in how you talk about yourself in your mind voice.
The more you take personal responsibility for your own life, the more you become powerful.
Accepting more personal power requires practicing more inner discipline.
Anyone can become powerful but very few ripen to become wise and powerful.
Knowing how to cultivate and use your personal power is wisdom.
FST is a DIY path and experience is the lab test for wisdom.

Quote from: SavaI am excited to keep using Retro when needed. I think this will be a great tool to overcome my social anxiety and generalized anxiety

Happy to hear this and thank you for sharing valuable feedback about your progress.
Feedback based on personal experience is very helpful for research.
Anxiety can be caused by many things - diet, trauma, empathy overload, etc.
Anxiety gets triggered when we are unable to trust the process and life and want to control based on our expectations.
We try to control what is beyond our control and then freak out about being out of control.
There is a quote by Corrie Ten Boom that I like to use as reminder for myself - "Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength."
Also, the Christian serenity prayer can be helpful as well "Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference"

There is good fear and bad fear, in a manner of speaking.
Good fear is what protects us from danger and can make us feel alive.
For example, trying something new can be scary and exhilarating fun.
Bad fear is what prevents us from living truthfully and can make us feel paralyzed.
For example, fear of rejection and shame can make us feel miserable and alienated from everyone.

We are human and we can still have creative fears when our surrender is not complete.
As Mystress says, Goddess has it handled.

Hope you have a lovely day.

Namaste!
Gopi

I'm sick again with a viral infection. Has exasperated my ear issues. The steroid shot wore off and the ear pain is back. It seems like whenever I'm sick, it hurts my ear more. So it must be a sinus/eustachian tube issue. I've been sick this year more than I've been sick since my awakening 6 years ago. Staying positive about it all but it definitely seems my health has taken a turn for the worse lately. I just had a different viral infection three weeks ago. And now I'm sick again.

Thanking Goddess for these troubles once again and asking for help from my guardian angels.
