Florianópolis, Santa Catarina State. In this episode, I'll mix a little bit of Hinduism, coaching, personal development, and Alphalife. Today we're going to talk about "Shakti" (or the Shakti), the sexual energy, the productive energy, the creative potential.
In the last episode we talked about vital energy management. Just giving you an overview, for better understand, we have potential, a vital energy inside of ourselves, and this is what moves the world, this is what makes us have ideas, this is what makes us have energy, determination, motivation, but this is not infinite. We have a lot of vital energy, but it is not infinite, it ends.
If we have problems going on in our lives they end up consuming our vital energy if we see them in the wrong way. This makes us less willing to do things, to have less determination, that is, vital energy being driven to other things. So in that episode, I said that the best thing to do is to manage your vital energy.
At the end of that episode, I said that this energy take various shapes, and one of those shapes is the creative potential, the creative energy, the energy inside of us that makes us create things. In Hinduism it is called the SHAKTI, I don't know if it has a translation, but if it had, it would be translated to sexual energy. It's something very spoken of in the tantra, the tantra talks about not wasting vital energy with orgasm and things of that nature.
Keep in mind that everything that will be said throughout this series is only going to make a difference in your life if you put it to practice and if it's 100% understood. Also reminding you that your understanding of this is only possible if you have watched the previous episodes I'm not saying you're dumb, I'm just saying that each episode contains a subject that's only possible to understand if you have watched all the previous episodes, not only the one before, where I talked about managing vital energy, but since the beginning, since the video "The Power of Presence". So watch the episodes in order, keep up until you get here and then you'll be able to understand 100% of the content.
Well, I'll try to use alternative ways to explain you a little bit about the Shakti you must have heard something about tantra, or tantric sex. In tantric sex men avoid having an orgasm and you ask yourself why they avoid having an orgasm if it is a good thing? They believe that orgasm liberates vital energy and that you are wasting your vital energy during orgasm and a lot of it is gone and does not come back and that's why you feel tired, even depressed sometimes, even though an orgasm feels good.
So they believe in this. And this vital energy, this stream of energy, they call it Shakti. It would be the same as creative energy.
They believe that this is the energy that co-created the universe, everything that creates the universe. It's not created magically, but using man to create things, mankind to create things, to have ideas and forge the world. This is creative energy, creative potential.
And they believe this should not be thrown away by having an orgasm. I do not think like this, but this explanation about vital energy, how it works in us and what's its purpose makes a lot of sense to me. I already talked about this in some other videos on my old channel, and I called it the creative potential, I said that all of us have it.
And then, a lot of people liked the video, understood the video, but they asked How can I have more creative potential? So, it's not about having more creative potential, it's about accessing the creative potential you already have. Now, recall it again, connecting it to the previous video, imagine you have a tank, a container of vital energy, and it liberates a determined amount, a certain demand of it's content for you to use.
But you use vital energy thinking unnecessary things, with millions of unnecessary thoughts, with an ultra-accelerated mind that get you exausted, thinking can get you tired. Keeping yourself in the present saves up your vital energy, so, this energy saving we talked about in the previous video I mean, if you wisely spare your vital energy and save it up you'll be able to access, feel, and use your creative potential, Shakti, the universe creative energy. Every time, things related to Hinduism, to tantra or even the name Shakti, it has a lot of value.
Just don't think that this creative energy is something magic, because it is not. It is a thing, an energy inside of you that gives you the motivation to do things that have to be done, to have ideas, so you can have a better performance in life in general, and then, you can become a successful human being. The principle is very simple, no reason to extend a lot in here and talk about the same thing ten times in different ways, you just need to understand that if you save up your vital energy, using it wisely, you'll have stored energy to do what you have to do.
"Copini, what do I have to do? " I don't know, it's up to you, what goals you have in your life? What do you want to be ten years from now?
How do you want to be living your life? What's your dream? Your life dream?
Your childhood dream? And your most real, tangible, achievable dream? Are you going to achieve that dream?
Do you need to achieve that dream? And if it's a dream that can become true. If you look to the matrix of work and see that, work from 8 AM to 12 PM, from 1:30 PM to 6:00 PM every day, to make someone else rich, and if you see that this is not the life you want, how to get out of this?
Starting your own business? How do you start your own business? What do I need to open my own business?
First of all, vital energy, motivation, determination. You have to study, learn a lot of new things. How to learn?
With vital energy. What about the motivation to learn? Vital energy is what give you motivation.
It's the vital energy that gives you determination, making you work harder to run that business without looking back, Talking now about the Shakti, the sexual energy, regarding sex. You must have seen somewhere that fighters abstain from sex before fights, they even abstain from food, not to lose weight, of course, but regarding aggressiveness. When someone is hungry, in a bad mood, and abstaining from sex the person becomes an animal, and this is a positive in some way.
This connection with your animal side, your body has a wisdom, this vital energy has self wisdom that has been inherited from our ancestors. When you're hungry you become more aggressive and determined, more focused to hunt the prey if you were in the wilderness, nowadays we're not living in the wilderness, but we can use this aggressiveness as a way of determination, for a certain period of time. Vital energy management is about self-knowledge too, as I mentioned in this video, so, abstaining from sex for some time and being hungry will make you agressive.
I see this as something to be explored with wisdom. I see this as a determination to perform a hard task, despite the fact that we can't abstain from food, let alone sex. The main purpose of this video is not to tell you to abstain from sex, or abstain from food, and use this as determination, of course not.
This is just something curious. This video is to show you that a lot of ancient philosophies already talk about the creative potential, we have vital energy pumping inside of ourselves, but we're wasting it with useless things. The first step is to stop wasting vital energy with useless things having a little more self-knowledge about how you live your days, how you eat, what you think, where you direct your vital energy, and then use it with more wisdom.
Understanding that you have that energy, the Shakti, this sexual energy or creative energy. You can access it, you can get to know it, and then you can use it, and using it you'll understand that it is related to the desire to have sex, but also the desire to create things. It is a desire for the new, a desire for the artistic side of you.
A desire to have more fun, and to have more motivation, determination and will to do things. Waking up at 5:30 AM with motivation to go about your day, not to stay in bed, procrastinating to get up, scared to live your day.
