you end up on the blacklist. You’ll get marked with a red light, and you’ll be accumulating warnings that will eventually catch up with you. So, everything should be in moderation. If you want to go for a walk, fine, once a week is enough. But some people overindulge in everything, and their sense of balance is broken. Self-denial, then, is probably a good way to... It’s useful for whom? For egotists who don’t know how to measure anything. They endlessly scroll through social media, they do things non-stop, they eat endlessly, they walk endlessly, they go to restaurants endlessly, they meet new people endlessly. And it’s like they scatter themselves, and all of this is bad. That’s what self-denial is for.
You’re asking how I practice it? I’ve forbidden myself from drinking the Chinese tea I usually drink, because even that, you know, affects the psyche in certain ways, depending on who you are and how it affects you. Of course, if you’re someone super materialistic, who smokes and drinks and is always on the phone, whether you drink tea or not will hardly make a difference to you. But for me, it’s become a burden. Since I’ve been focusing on myself, this tea now feels heavy to me. Many people mistakenly think that eating meat is heavy, but actually, even tea, especially Chinese tea, contains so many elements, like caffeine or other substances. It’s very rich, it influences mood and state of mind positively, but again, you shouldn’t get used to it. First, no dependence, and second, no stimulants. You need to step away from all of that. So, I’ve forbidden myself to drink it, even though I really want to. But just forbidding it isn’t enough – I need to spiritually reach a point where I no longer want it. It’s possible that I’ll drink some in a week, and on that contrast, I’ll feel the difference: how I was without it and how I feel after drinking it again. Maybe it’ll make me feel worse, and I’ll realize that it makes me more tired or less sensitive. From that realization, I’ll genuinely want to stop drinking it, not just with my mind but with my heart. That’s how growth happens, in everything. I have other weaknesses too – like drinking Coca-Cola, pouring myself some whiskey, or having tea with sugar, or eating sweets. On the one hand, there’s an explanation for a lot of this, and you can’t compare yourself to me. I travel between different worlds, different rhythms. And when I’m in a certain rhythm, it’s like I need to maintain an oxygen mask, which sometimes requires a lot of sugar. But I don’t do that every day; I do it consciously when I need to stay in a certain rhythm or world where I’m dealing with material matters. When I shift to another world with different vibrations and frequencies, I might just drink water. Not that
