The title of this post is the same title I used for a video I posted a few days ago. I’ll explain what “getting back on my path” means in this post, but I wanted to put a poll up first. Here are the main themes I got in the comments of that video. These are all things I’m passionate about so I thought I’d see if there was one you guys wanted me to work on more than anything else (you can vote on more than one thing). The order is random. Is there something you’d like to add? Leave a comment below!
Getting Back On My Path
Ever since about the eighth grade the one thing I’ve been interested in the most is spirituality. I was a little “obsessed” with understanding what enlightenment was and how to get there. I’d get books from the library, read stuff online, talk to people, etc. I was also a little obsessed with understanding what life was all about and why the world was such a “fucked up” place (at least that’s what I thought at the time). Mostly I wanted to leave the “civilized” life (with it’s murders, poverty, drugs, affluence, etc.) and live the life of a monk somewhere (preferably China) and do martial arts all day.
Balancing these two things (the “civilized” life vs. the life of a monk) has been a constant struggle. In recent months I’ve spent too much time focusing on the civilized life. I’ve recently had a renewed interest in studying Taichi and Daoism. My “main path” is studying these two things… DAILY.
Pwning Life TEH BOOK!
If you didn’t notice it, I finally started working on the book “Pwning Life.” It’s going to be an autobiography of my life til NOW and it will go into detail about the various struggles I’ve had with being a “civilized Daoist”… Or some shit like that.
Here’s that post [I'm Writing A Book]
