23 days done. Had a wet dream last night but that was out of nowhere. I have 0 desire to look at pornography.
Very good brother. You spend this night at the old watchtower of Amon Sûl. Beware for the PMO forces are lurking in the area.
One more day down the river dear Fellowship. Here´s a good excerpt from our brother in this struggle Soaring Eagle, from the ebook "Rebooting as the best Remedy" "I remember that I had masturbated quite frequently in the summer holiday following my national higher education entrance exam, when I looked at myself in the mirror after the holiday I saw eye bags! Once eye bags start to appear, a person would look several years older, this gives out a decadent look which lacked vitality. Although I didn’t know much about health cultivation at the time, I knew that exercise would help my body to recover, therefore I would often go for a slow jog and run for 20 laps during each session at a very slow pace. After jogging for 20 days and then looking into the mirror, the eye bags have disappeared, the quality of the skin improved a lot and the improvement in complexion was apparent. However, my determination was low at the time, I was still in the brute force and blind stage, so not long afterward I started to masturbate again, when I again looked into the mirror, the eye bags returned again. And so I was quite troubled during those years and battled against eye bags for a long time, but I was still unable to solve the problem, this is because I was still masturbating. Originally, I made the eye bags vanish due to great efforts made in exercising and resting well, but as soon as I let down my guard, eye bags would return and not only that, my facial complexion would become a lot worse, like expired fruit, the feeling of being all dried up and decaying. At the time I had looked into eye bag removing surgical procedures, there is external cut and internal cut. It also came to my understanding that the procedures will not help you to remove the eye bags completely, there will be a chance of relapse, if you continue to masturbate, eye bags will return. The emergence of eye bags is largely due to the lungs’ diminishing ability to dry up water, the inferior function of the lungs, the block of Chengqi and Sibai acupoints. TCM believes: kidney is the gate of the stomach. (Translator’s note: in a healthy person, when we intake water it is passed onto the kidneys from the stomach, as if through a doorway. When the kidneys are sick, that the doorway does not function properly, the result is swollenness in various areas of the body). [Suwen] states: “Kidney is the gate of the stomach, when the gate is is malfunctioning, it induces the accumulation of water, swollenness in the skin. Patient suffering from edema, due to the accumulation of water” Kidneys are not only the gates of the stomach but also stores the essences of the five viscera and the six bowels. Masturbation causes the weakening of the kidneys, once that happens, the whole body is prone to run into issues. The issue of eye bags is but one of the expressions from weakened kidneys, although eye bags are located above the stomach meridian, located at the Chengqi acupoint, the root cause is still the kidneys. When the kidneys are weakened, the function of the internal organs becomes disorderly. Now that I have completely cut off PMO and sexual fantasization, the issue of eye bags is nowhere to be seen, although not completely level, it is in level with a person in my age. With the onset of eye bags, the prerequisite for recovery is to abstain from masturbation and fantasization completely, else the recovery will be very difficult."
