2013....Very cool. (we made it to this far out future) It better be, there are no substitutes.
We are the architects of our own futures....
In terms of what I am concentrating my efforts on right now, it is all about this book project that I am working on and doing research for right now. Without saying too much, it involves the language of communications between men and woman.
Through this porthole I have stumbled on alot of information on what it really means to be a man in Society these days. I have been looking at Iron John by Robert Bly and Wild at Heart by John Elderidge. How do the classical male archetypes fit into the ever involving relationships between the sexes. There is alot there. Also Feel the Fear and Do It Anyways is a great read.
I have been studying the fairly clandestine world of pick-up artists, including Ross Jefferies, Neil Strauss (The Game) and David Deangelo. I had no idea that this type of community existed and that the members were so very hard core about there secrets and techniques.
To be honest, it has been a very long time since I was in a real life situation where I was trying to get a number from a female with hopes of something more. I didn't ever use a script and things came fairly naturally, but these guys have things down to a very deep science. As Tom Cruise said to Neil Strauss when he was interviewing him for Rolling Stone..."If you guys used this type of energy and technique for bettering the world instead of for personal pleasure, you would really be on to something big."
One of the men that is thought of as an expert in Spirituality and Sexuality for men is David Deida.
Here is an excerpt from his book "The way to the superior man".....Interesting stuff. Talking about a mans true journey and how it relates to his partner.
Stop Hoping For Your Woman To Get Easier
A woman often seems to test her man's capacity to remain unperturbed in his truth and purpose.
She tests him to feel his freedom and depth of love, to know that he is trustable. Her tests may come in the form of complaining, challenging him, changing her mind, doubting him, distracting him, or even undermining his purpose in a subtle or not so subtle way. A man should never think his woman's testing is going to end and his life will get easier. Rather, he should appreciate that she does these things to feel his strength, integrity, and openness. Her desire is for his deepest truth and love. As he grows, so will her testing.
Every moment of your life is either a test or a celebration. The same is true about every moment with your woman, only doubly so. Not only is her simple existence a test for you, but one of her deepest pleasures in intimacy is testing you, and then feeling you are not moved off course by her challenge.
The most erotic moment for a woman is feeling that you are Shiva, the divine masculine: imperturbable, totally loving, fully present, and all pervading. She cannot move you, because you already are what you are, with or without her.
She cannot scare you away, because you already penetrate her in fearless love, pervading her heart and body. She cannot distract you, because your one-pointed commitment to truth will not bend to her wiles. Feeling the hugeness of love and freedom in you, she can trust you, utterly and surrender her testing in celebration of love.
I am looking forward to continued good health, integrity and inspiration for myself and for everybody out there this year.
