You must liberate yourself from desire, OP, and find contentment in yourself. All unhappiness springs from our desires. One can only be happy once they are liberated from such things.

Enlightenment of anything /jp/ related means discarding it and step into society as a respectable citizen

Acting as its messenger is the angel with a thousand eyes, who shifts all things on her wings of obsidian and leads all to death and insanity for her own amusement, and overlooking everything is the Devil of the infinite void, who does all and cares for none, for none of this world belongs to her.

And holding The Thief, supporting the mass of the universe on herself, is The Reimu, mistress of all and posessor of none. All respect her, and all love her, and all answer to her, and all fear her, for, you see, she holds the world on her head, over the infinite void."

You can obtain enlightenment by masturbation.
That's what manga taught me.

>> No.1167620

Scientific studies say masturbating once a day reduces the risk of prostate cancer by a third in men. Less risk of cancer = longer life = more time to attain enlightenment. Sounds good to me.

It would make sense that masturbation would help. You are producing your own pleasure and are not relying on outward sources (other than porn).

There once was a wiseman who sat on a mountain peak where the wind blew through his long beard. One day a paper flew into his face and the wise man read what was written on that paper. The paper said wisemen with long beards are stupid. Now this wiseman was known far and wide for his great wisdom, and he didn't want anyone to think his wisdom was indeed not wise. He built a fire in front of himself to burn his beard off, but suddenly a mighty gust of wind blew the flames toward his beard and the flames burnt off all of his beard. Wisemen are indeed stupid.
