Yes because if you have worldly power you have everything you want and you can have a girlfriend without starting a family and oreos

If I had worldly power I would just play troonhou or something

>>14093033Would you sacrifice further, if it was proportional?

>>14093049Depends by what you mean by further

depends on what the powers are

>>14093081Would you sever any possibility of having any relationship with a woman in exchange for whatever the nobel prize equivalent of your job is.
Mind you, the sacrifice completely cuts it away from your fate and is irreversible.

>>14093170What if the sacrifice just gives the raw strength or intellect to achieve it?

>>14093021 (OP)yes, there's a nonzero chance that I won't have those things in the first place
â„–14093229[Quote]
>>14093021 (OP)Sure. I have a 0 chance anyway to have those in the first place.

>>14093185If you mean achieving the Nobel prize from any job then nah because I just want to be unemployed while the feds give me paychecks every month like they do for disabled people

What about one that permanently severs you from any fate and blocks you from every single possible thing fate could ever give you, in exchange for giving you the strength to live without fate or causality?

Suffering is necassary.
If you do not suffer, you do not grow, you do not make progress.
you can be given a billion dollars and if you are not disciplined, you will lose it all in less than 10 years.
If you take 20 to get a billion dollars, you will only make more after that.

>>14093342Isn’t it more efficient to just slice my causality apart even for weak deals, just to have certainty and focus again?
â„–14093390[Quote]
>>14093373nigga what are you talking about
â„–14093428[Quote]
>>14093390Completely severing myself from causality (AKA, fate, and far reaching results of any action good or bad) for the sake of an unchanging life with nothing except existence
â„–14093469[Quote]
>>14093428This is probably just death I imagine
Free or servitude and choice, how is this even living?
â„–14093500[Quote]
>>14093469It doesn’t matter whether it’s life or death, it just matters that it can strip everything away so that there’s just will left. It simplifies things into its most linear, fundamental form, and could possibly be the best form of existence for it.
â„–14093520[Quote]
>>14093500Alright this take is very based I have to admit
I don't know what this would be like, I can't even really imagine what it would be like. I don't know if it would even be enjoyable or if I would miss the stuff you have to do to survive

If I can sacrifice multiple things for multiple worldly powers, then sure. I would sacrifice love, family, children, and even my body to have certain things. I would want to have ethereal gnosis, exist for eternity, and completely transcend humanity. I would be like a god
â„–14093556[Quote]
>>14093520Mind you, I don’t even know whether this should even be taken. If causality is necessary for certain types of existence; i.e. endless war and violence, endless joy and despair, endless scheming and ambition, it might be too much of a price to bear. This type of ritual is something I could ask God’s help with, and could even maybe be done. It’s also the exact ritual that made me make the thread just thinking about it.

Yes because starting a family is a meme

>>14093561Then if you will this, if your truths refuse to sink, simply speak the words. ‘I sacrifice’.
