Where were you when I was 16 and single?

Reading Imran Khan’s interview in the Newspaper, I found one statement of his particularly amusing

“Nobody was interested in me when I was 16 and single, When I was in a committed relationship, suddenly everyone wanted me. I was like “Great where were you when I was 16 and single!”

This has been the experience of not only me, but the zillions of young, single high schoolers and college freshmen, for all the time we were single, (apart from that girl who stalked you) no girl, I repeat none of the pretty, hot or the desirable girl would try to be interested in you even the tiniest of the bit, all they would do to you would be is the “Let’s be friends” or “We’re just friends” thing!

And then when you just get into your very first relationship, BAM! Suddenly you are being almost stalked by girls, as if all the other girls are conspiring against you, they just CAN NOT let you be alone when you want to, I mean why the hell it has to be like this.

So, to all the girls please understand the simple equation that would make everyone’s life much easier and happier.

Single girls = Single Guys

Single girls ≠ Committed Guys….please leave them alone, let them be happy do not cause break-ups.

I am not accusing anyone but simply stating the fact that this is so…

None (or lets say 95%) of the girls do this consciously for I suppose there is some subtle sort of attraction towards committed or married men and guys, for them being pre-selected by other women.

By the way, few months ago when I was in a relationship, I was literally being chased down by two of my lady-friends (no names sorry *privacy reasons you know). Then, due to some reasons when my relationship status changed to single back again, both of them seemed to back away as well.

I would like a Girl-opinion on this, why does it has to be this way, again saying this does not apply to 100% of you out there but pretty much happens to the majority.

Why Meditation And Orgasm Feel The Same To The Brain!! I bet you did not know this!

Did you know that according to your brain, there’s not much difference between meditation and an orgasm? Once again, science is catching up with what the spiritual masters have been telling us for, oh, millennium Yep, whether you’re meditating or having a nice, big ‘O’, you’re going to enjoy the benefits of things like: decreased sensations of pain, less body awareness and, best of all … silence of the monkey mind!
Spiritual teachers have been on to this for years, but research is now showing that orgasm and meditation create much the same effect in our brains.
According to a recent article in Scientific American, both meditation and orgasm decrease our sense of self-awareness. Bliss, says author Nadia Webb, whether through the experience of meditative contemplation or through the bodily experience of sex, “shares the diminution of self-awareness, alterations in bodily perception and decreased sense of pain.” In other words, both experiences lead to a temporary stoppage in the incessant flow of our internal commentary. Even if for only a few minutes, we are able to see ourselves as something other than the ego.
Mystics and gurus have long referred to the similarities between the two activities. Osho, the Indian spiritual teacher formerly known as Rajneesh, was famous for his acknowledgment of the mystical value of an orgasm. “The experience of orgasm itself is always nonsexual. Even though you have achieved it through sex, it itself has no sexuality in it,” he once said. “And my own understanding is that meditation has grown out of the experience of orgasm.”

 

A Little ‘Death’?

The French term for orgasm is “la petite mort” or “the little death,” in reference to the period of tranquility, crystalline awareness and transcendence experienced shortly after a peak sexual experience.
The esoteric Indian tradition of tantra purports to use sex as a way of eventually achieving enlightenment or total understanding of the universe. Still, orgasm is no replacement for meditation.

Same-Same … But Different

Meditation and orgasm light up different parts of the brain. Meditation, various studies have shown, lights up the left prefrontal cortex — an area associated with joy and happiness. But during an orgasm, the left cortex remains totally silent. Meditation has also been known to create lasting change in the brain through a thickening of the cortex.
What this perhaps means, in terms of strengthening our emotional wellness, is that while orgasm can make us hunger for the experience of sustained transcendence, meditation is the only path to actually achieving it.
So, finally something good about sex, something that almost everyone knew but now, the stamp of science on it, means sex is good for health both physical and spiritual health!
P.S. – Excess of anything is bad, always remember this.
