    “What is good? All that increases the feeling of power. Will To Power, and power itself in man. What is bad? All that stems from weakness. What is happiness? The feeling that power increases. That a resistance is overcome.” -Nietzsche.

    I’m so proud of the younger generation of men taking these steps. I’m 46 and well on this path. I run an MMA/Gracie Barra gym in Green Cove Springs Florida, I’ve been an educator guiding young man for about 20 years. I’m competing in the Pan Am jujitsu tournament in a couple weeks, but most importantly, I’m passing this knowledge onto my son and younger men that I mentor. He’s 12, and has never been struck with the guilt that came from Christianity or prudish, western society, and I’m truly grateful to see many of you young men walking this path. Our future is bright.

      I see the guilt of Christianity as the working of Satan. I am a Christian and never once felt guilt because of God but from my own actions. Real Christianity teaches accountability and honesty.

      @@rynomacamillion The guilt of "christianity" isn't the guilt of christianity itself. I'm not a christian, but have had good christian friends. The guilt that's spoken of is that of christian communities and churches that dictate your life through peer pressure and judgement instead of letting you be guided exclusively by the only authority that should be in a church : the holy trinity. Christianity offers little guilt to simply being a fulfilled man. The people who think themselves an important authority on what others do with their lives are. There are good communities and bad communities. Reading a book won't pressure you into suppressing yourself. Bad peers will.

    I'm working to tare down the norms that I have been shackled to. I've fealt like a beast chained in a cage for such a long time. I can honestly say knwoledge like this helps either chip away at the chains or outright break them all together. To men who haven't reached their thirties i can say only this. Don't waste anymore time than you feel you already have. I wish i would have started on this path when i was much younger. I was never meant for the civilized world. I feel this in my very bones. My shadow work is still on going. Sometimes it feels like a night without stars that in it's own strange ways are rather comforting. Thank you for this video my friend. I've just subscribed today.

      I've heard it said that if you are not capable of cruelty you are ABSOLUTELY vulnerable to anyone that is. That always made a lot of sense to me. I'm not going out inflicting cruelty on anybody but if they step up to me thinking they can they best step back and walk away because I ain't having it.

      I recommend learning about Nietzsche. Thus spoke Zarathustra is a great read. Let his words resonate with your heart, mind, and soul like harmonics of the human spirit being plucked like a string. Playing a single note on the violin is beautiful because the abundance of notes octaves above and below that resonate as harmonics. Truths that are not easily apparent themselves can be discovered through resonating with great Nietzsche philosophy as the harmonics that resonate from his insights are inherently true and a source of innate power.
      “The Essential Schopenhauer” edited by Wolfgang Schirmacher for me helps me have a baseline of Nihilism. Nietzsche is a free thinker of astronomical proportions and building a base of Nihilism is essential to understanding the direction that drives Nietzsche’s work.

    Beautiful piece . Fears and inhibitions block people their whole lives ,
    BUT , you need to be afraid of something you need to inhibit your shadow from owning you , as you have said you need to integrate the shadow not become it.
    This is because the shadow when left unchecked runs wild , it becomes religionless, lustful, has evil tendencies like psychotic episodes where it craves to kill , to steal to injure all in the name of power .
    The light should always rule , but its should recognize the presence of the dark. Not become it.
    A strong man is one who despite having women throw themselves to him chooses to have a relationship and have kids so as to create a legacy for he knows his dangerous tendencies can lead to his death any time.
    Despite being in charge of his own being chooses to carry his own cross like Jesus did. Not because he his weak but because he is strong enough to recognize the pleasures of this world could never satisfy his true cravings . Which is to be etched in everyone’s memory for eternity as the strongest of them all.
    A true man is one ready to die , for he is unafraid of death in this life but afraid of He who once he’s dead could still judge his soul to eternal damnation
    What I’m saying brothers is the journey is three fold, you move from being weak to being strong to being weak again so that others could live their strength.
    If to any of you Jesus isn’t the epitome of true masculinity then your still in the second part of the journey .

    It's wrong to say you can't see yourself. If you experienced enough pain you will.
    However, even though you can see yourself but you might be blind to something and you'll never see it. But there's just as much chance of the lens of the other person missing something you know and seeing things wrong.
    It can be helpful to see through someone else's lenses for a bit but I'd never say I need others lenses like you have here.
    I more trust you have a bias towards a group because you are building a community than I trust this conclusion being true 😈.
    My personal experience is my prowess leads other men and women to try and knock me down through meanness with no goal other than contempt. Games for fun when they lose so much they no longer want to play.
    It's more true being alone makes you your own worst enemy which is why you are better with friends but a mob of uncaring frenemies is worse than myself.
