The 4 Noble Truths
Appearance
A tongue-in-cheek adaptation of the Buddha's Four Noble Truths and Noble Eightfold Path to Red Pill thinking. (In Buddhism, the truths are: life involves suffering; suffering comes from craving; suffering can end; and the Eightfold Path is the way to end it.)
The four truths (Red Pill version)
- There is suffering: dating and relationships hurt, and the poster's shorthand is "all women are like that".
- Desire causes it: fixating on one woman (oneitis), or the pain of divorce.
- It can end: through an abundance mentality.
- The way out is the eightfold path of raising your value.
The eightfold path
- Right view: see women and yourself clearly; lead, and know that leadership is attractive.
- Right intention: know what you want, casual or long-term.
- Right speech: speak from a strong frame.
- Right action: don't be a pushover or a cash machine.
- Right livelihood: build money and status.
- Right effort: keep improving: lift, learn, grow.
- Right mindfulness: choose your words and actions carefully; watch your body language and tone.
- Right concentration: focus on your goals; you're the prize, so live for yourself and don't compromise.
