Now that we have a HPS for our women, it's also important for me to go over some men-specific subjects that are very important.
Overall, it's common to be asked in regards to how one can become a better man. The situation is that as men, we have a lot of issues we have to face, including irrelevance, having to fight to better our position instead of "attracting" our way into it, and so on. This "fight" is this situation where we must also combat ourselves from numerous things such as avarice, foolishness, addiction and so on.
The moment a person does sever themselves from a larger purpose, the understanding of a common purpose, the Gods, and one's true self integrity, the roadway to destruction lays wide open for any man. It is naturally designed to be that way, so as many people who ask "Why are men like this today", the answer is because none of the above truly or viably exists in this world.
In order to maintain a honorable momentum, one must hold strongly into them the above virtues, or they will be eaten by the lesser factors in existence. To have this, there must be a formal culture or other higher understanding that one must apply to keep one's self together until one becomes a better man. That's Zevism in a nutshell.
Disconnection from these higher things, results essentially in yet another worthless man who walks around and is nothing but yet another animal seeking to strike another animal, without any form of purpose, or need to even evolve. The most basic instincts that prevail, torment the person having them in a never ending need of a futile circle, where one is an animal that is only fit for subjugation, and one is already enslaved to many things more, such as passions, ignorance and darkness of mind and spirit.
These above factors provide nothing to you, if not even temporal "pleasure" but they rob from you all fundamentally real sense of success or true feeling of establishment in existence. In order for one to finally transform, it is sensible that one must start putting on the side all sorts of things that don't reflect the best version of one's self.
As Zevism gives all these tools for someone to do this, if one is not doing this, one cannot sit there all day and whine and complain to anyone else but one's self. Sure, there are certain things you are not responsible for in this life, but if you look at what you ARE responsible for and what your CAN improve, you will likely notice that a lot of things you are not doing at all.
Self honesty is very important here, not with the intent of breaking up your mind and spirit, but just a proper self recognition.
One major key that can help someone grow higher than themselves is to have a larger, more important thing than themselves in mind. For example, the community or the Gods. Living through this, one will become a master over persona misery, fear, smallness, and over many other problems that plague everybody else. These problems don't disappear entirely, but they are greatly minimized through this.
Over the years there have been many times where I thought I was at my "limits". Then everytime I realized that there were no real limits, because "my" limit was essentially the limit of our common goals, not myself. That here is not a recipe to live without balance, it's just to show us the power of brotherhood and belief. We "ourselves" can only do so much.
Looking back, it's because of serious incentives to grow things for this community that I have overcome myself, with "myself" coming on the last wagon of the importance as to why.
Ourselves are very important, but if one is looking to become a higher version of this so called "self", then we must look inwards to find the larger purposes of existence, rather than the small ones.
Further, there are also these delusional people [the more worthless one is, the more these delusions persist] that they are wholly perfect and whole right now, and that the world merely owes you something because you exist. That state of falsehood comes with a thousand faces, including thinking one knows about things one does not know, thinking the world is always "wrong", and that you are always "right", imbuing yourself with a state of comfortable denial. That must be banished from one's mind to evolve as a man. You haven't grown into manhood yet if you have this mentality.
Life will shake you out of this via either brutal force, or if you are sheltered enough, you will unfortunately squander all your potential in this land of delusion such as is the case for many Western men right now dying in their comforts.
Speaking of being a man we also have to be aware of our mistakes and accept them. Having a high amount of responsibilities, is where we are most severely tested, and this is where the real essence of being a man comes into materialization. If you have no responsibility or you squander it like a fool, that is the quick recipe to degenerate as a man.
Don't think I am speaking here from a standpoint of a "perfect" person, as I am certainly in a constantly evolving trajectory like other men here. Maybe responsibilities, forces of life, fateful events, or capacities, have shaped certain things differently for me, but overall, we all have our unique but similar path to walk on. We are all confronted with similar challenges. I am no stranger to any of them.
Of course I am not without my share of critics or places to improve, to whom I try to do my best even for them, to improve myself. I consider myself fully responsible to become better for all of you, consistently. It's not easy, and I would invite also others to wear the biggest shoes they can wear for themselves, inspiring us all to do bigger miles.
As these are very large topics, one can easily go up here in this topic and clearly find a few places where work is required. Nowadays there are many "male gurus" out there who preach "masculinity", it is important to understand that as Zevists we can also work on the dimension these people cannot work on, which is the internal aspect of consciousness, which is the real source of all power inside.
