There is actually a Level 4, but having only recently gotten the hang of Level 3, i have only a vague idea of what it is. Mandino says about it: "love will be my shield to repulse the arrows of hate... one day i will cast it aside and walk unencumbered among all manners of men and that day my name will be raised high on the pyramid of life." What he means still somewhat eludes me, but i think that he's refering to a Zen-like level of calmness ("a mind still, like water") at which point all of these philosophies i've discussed here become so integrated into the subconscious that you, for the sake of not having a better metaphor, become Neo, and begin to... just be. Everything melts together and disappears, and you only take in the pure essence of life, without thinking, by only feeling. For a full description of this, i myself need "a few years, and then i'll get back to you."
I've been there once man, it's unbelievabke.
I can't really remember what triggered it, but it was nirvana, its something you know. It starts off with you just smiling and appreciating, almost like on a high or something. Then I jsut starteed realizing how great life was, everything we do is a choice, and I mean EVERYTHING. I was walking and saying **** like, "Holy ****, I could turn around and never go to my home again if I choosed to", but I still wasn't there. When I stepped inside my house I was sitting down and I was like, "**** this, I wanna go outside". So I just started walking outside, with no real purpose, but it felt so damn great to be alive. I was just walking, smiling and every little thing seemed amazing. Nothing in the world could possibly go wrong, I even sat in the grass and just stared up at the stars at times, totally just bewildered. I then called up some girl that I had been interested in (keep in mind I had been using PUA ****) and said, "**** the PUa ****, I'm gonna make her feel as great as I do right now". So I took her out just walking with me, nothing overly sexual, nothing with a hidden agenda, just to show her the world I was in. And I was telling her how great it was to be alive and all this other stuff and oddly enough I was kinoing and stuff without really realizing it. It was a perfect night not because of the girl, but the state of my mind. I could make no mistakes, none whatsoever, it was like totally mastery of self. Its impossible to really put in words its just pure like happiness, now orries, no regrets, just living in the now and having fun. I mean we were doing stupid childish things and having a ****ing amazing time, like piggy back riding and crazy **** like that. THe world at that point, was perfect, it's undescribable peace and perfect joy, something one has to experience in order to truly believe.
Its too bad I can't go back to it, for some reason I can't remember what started it, and I've tried reinacting the night, and I still feel good, but nowhere near as good as that night, its as if all inhibitions are down, all fears are tossed aside, everything is simply perfect, trust me guys, when you get tehre one day you will know.
And for those who have experimented with drugs like MDMA or whatever, it's still nothing like that at all, its an a totally different level.
The funniest thing was the girl asks me now all the time when I'm going to take her on another one of those crazy walks just to have fun, and its funny, because I didn't have to use any PUA tactics, no dinners, no anything, just sharing the fun and great time of life I was having with her, it killed all of her negative emotions.
Again though, I don't live in this mindset, its only happened really once naturally as far as I can recall.
That sounded reallll happpy mannnnn
