What percentage
    #5081246 -

Of Shroomery discussion is mental masturbation IYO. Post your percentage.

Of the part that is not mental masturbation, why isn't it and what makes it valuable?

what's mental masturbation?

"Gently return to the simple physical sensation of the breath. Then do it again, and again, and again. Somewhere in this process, you will come face-to-face with the sudden and shocking realization that you are completely crazy. Your mind is a shrieking, gibbering madhouse on wheels." - ven. henepola gunaratana

Only as part of life. In and of itself it's good. If its the only expression of life then one might consider it an addiction.

something like going through the motions as a distraction rather than trying to accomplish philosophical, spiritual, and psychological health, would be my definition in this case.

i dunno, maybe 50%. but that's quite subjective.

One person's mental masturbation is another person's important discussion.  :shrug:

Although just because we feel this way I don't think we really can know what is important or meaningful to others to pinpoint a percentage.

It's just that Veritas and I were agreeing that there is not much in the way of people sharing there personal struggles with growth and how much we miss that and value that.

So this post is not a right wrong judgment, although it could be easily taken that way. I just wanted to see if people thought about it and what their views are.
