Allow me first to make it clear that I’m not writing to encourage viewing porn. I still think our sexual energy can be used for more productive purposes. However, for the sake of being a little help;
The devastating effects of porn does not only originate from porn, but from your perception of it.
@JAAJ shared some very valuable info here, a special one being the levels of consciousness by David Hawkings.
Because most porn viewers consume porn at the level of desire to capture/possess the perceived, may it be actors, actions, or any experience alike, then the law of rhythm compensates; the viewer is captured/possessed by the desire. This is the divine pendulum at work.
Here’s a quick exercise for those that want to get out of the loop; do Ho’oponopono. Either while you’re captivated to consume porn next time, or simply on your own meditation before even coming to that moment.
- Think/view actors, scenes, positions, whatever fetishes that you desire.
- FEEL and say “I’m sorry I tried to possess you” + “Please forgive me”
- LET IT BE as it is, without desire to possess. Say “I love you” with the feeling of giving freedom to it, releasing your attachment.
- FEEL GRATITUDE for the freedom and detachment between you, and say “Thank you”.
Repeat this for your “favorite” actors, positions, fetishes, etc. and mean it. I say “mean it” because one must be sincere and feel the steps truly with a realization and acceptance of this truth. Doing it just to get out of “the devastating affects” may not be as effective although it would still work to an extent.
