SRG Semen Retention General

What is Semen Retention?
Semen retention is the practice of abstaining from ejaculation for extended periods, often with the intention of preserving and redirecting sexual energy. It originates from various spiritual, philosophical, and cultural traditions. The idea is that abstaining from ejaculation can lead to increased vitality, mental clarity, and spiritual growth. While there isn’t a lot of scientific research (hard topic to do studies on) on the topic*, there are tons of personal accounts. Therefore, the only sure way to find out is trying it out for yourself.
Reported benefits include, reduced stress, increased motivation, increased energy*, improved focus, healthier hair/skin, deeper meditation, improved AP/Lucid Dreams, and more.

* https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12659241/ - study that proves test levels are affected by SR. Average peak in test levels was 145%, one subjects test levels was raised 197%. However it has no data on what happens after week 3-4 and after that.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17268169/ - study that explores how mating until satisfaction affects the brains of male rats and their sexual behavior. (coom =“numb”androgen receptors = body unable to “register” testosterone as effectively as it should)

How to Practice It?
>No porn – do not watch porn whatsoever.
>Remove triggers from your life.
>Productive acts - clean, cook
>Creative acts: Art/Music/Writing/Crafts. It can be anything that makes you feel like you’re being creative.
>Light meditation. Try minimum of 5 minutes to start off.
>Walk everyday. 10-15 minute walks should be a good start.
>Gym/Sports/Martial Arts
>>

>In case of urges:
- https://imgur.com/gallery/g4eGH
- Don't peek and Hold your breath for as long as you possibly can. The urge usually pass after that. If not, repeat.
- Horse stance or chair pose: Do it while clenching the abdomen and all legs' muscles, raise arms for extra blood flow redirection. Works both for killing erections or urges.
- Any physical activity.

On long clean streaks many report benefits that transcend current science like a sort of "magnetism" or higher "vibration/aura" that attracts/appeals to other living beings, a higher perception, a stronger and intimidating "aura/presence", a deeper connection with nature, an attractive BO (people usually report it as "pheromones") and more.

>Advices:
- Mental Purity 1.1: Semen Retention acts as a bio-electromagnetic amplifier. Watch the quality of your thoughts because your inner state will get amplified and manifested. Lust is the Ojas killer. Do not engage with Lust.
- Mental Purity 1.2: Keep a journal as a tool for introspection.
- NEVER watch porn of any kind.
- Remove triggers from your life. Masturbation is a bad habit. Break that bad habit.
- Focus on achieving a goal. An art, a craft, competing, etc.
- Meditate and/or Pray Daily. Try a minimum of 5 minutes to start off.
- Exercise/Gym/Sports/Martial Arts. If it is something social even better.
- Good habits like healthy eating, water fasting, dry fasting, sun exposure and cold showers do seem to speed up the process.
- Sublimation: literally using the energy.
- Transmutation: changing the quality of energy to something different. (Surya Namaskara, 8 brocades, Tibetan rites)
- Avoid stimulant drugs such as caffeine or adderall

Consider this deeply: the efferent nerves that connect to your testes signify that every lustful thought, image, or sound isn't just a passing whim—it’s an unspoken command to your sexual centers, demanding the alchemical production of vital fluids. This is why true celibacy begins in the mind; it's not merely abstaining from physical acts but waging a war on the psychic plane.

The essence of this struggle lies entirely in the realm of thought. Without mastering your own consciousness, celibacy becomes a hollow effort, doomed to collapse. The signals that travel from the brain operate at a subconscious, autonomic level, bypassing your conscious defenses. Each indulgent glance, each whisper of lust, amplifies the command sent through your neural pathways: from body to brain, and then back to body, compelling the endless cycle of creation.

This is why the so-called "conversion of sexual energy" is not just inefficient—it is disastrously wasteful. Fluids, once created, may be partially reabsorbed, but the cost in vital energy is profound. The body sacrifices the richest of its resources, the very "essence" of life, to generate these fluids. To drain them constantly is to bleed away your own life force, bit by bit.

Ancient Taoist teachings speak of this truth with unyielding clarity: the sexual organs, left unchecked, will drain energy from even your most vital internal systems. They will prioritize themselves, feeding on your essence. Engaging in any form of spiritual practice while constantly succumbing to lust is not only self-destructive; it is a path to accelerated decay, leading you ever closer to an early death.

anticipate this thread will face significant resistance, as semen retention seems to be forbidden knowledge, something not meant for the masses. Already, attempts are being made to taint it with malicious elements, likely to suppress or discredit it. Those who've been around long enough remember how /SIG/ was taken down on /fit/, where SR was a core teaching.

Some fools will argue that this topic isn't forbidden because it’s "everywhere," but what we mean is how persistently it's dismissed, downplayed, or ridiculed. The effort to undermine it is proof that there's something significant here. Others will say it doesn’t deserve its own general thread, but I don't see them complaining about the countless trash threads that contribute nothing.

It’s odd how this topic has bounced across boards—/fit/, /biz/, /pol/, /adv/—and been banned as "off-topic." From the moment it appeared here, it faced backlash, despite SR being rooted in all major religions and spiritual traditions for thousands of years. I suspect our time here is limited, and the sudden influx of disturbing content today feels like an ominous sign.

This is why they want to delete it from /x/ too. Semen Retention is powerful; it’s in someone’s interest to keep men from this practice. How can self-discipline and control be harmful? It leads to freedom.

/pol/: Sexuality is political; porn industry leaders shape society.
/fit/: SR offers physical and psychological benefits—strength, sleep, clarity.
/biz/: Magnetism is key for career growth, interviews, sales.
/adv/: SR aids mental health for those struggling with porn addiction; even women face hypersexuality issues.

There's a case for SR on each board, but /x/ may be the last stand. If it's removed here, the topic may be lost entirely.

On day 30 my soulmate's guardian angel, revealed my soulmate's name to me. I can't stop thinking about her, I fell in love instantly since it was revealed, the feelings immediately changed to heartbreak when I remember she got married. But I also remember mention of her not being happily married. I have been praying to God to find my soulmate, could it be.
I want to go back to not knowing. This better have a happy ending

Anon your divine partner would not cause such infatuation and if they were to then that highlights that you and them have work to do. It is a matter of perspective. You can have more than one familiar spirit from another life and all of those you spent more than a dozen lives with (especially if they were eventful or long) can lead to strong impressions. If you meet them then you will have an event such as the one you're going through. You were a free spirit who knew a dozen different people. If you happen across one in a new life it's surely worth seeing if you can exchange stories and stuff again but it's not a necessity.

There are spiritual marriages as well in the higher planes and they aren't much different from here. If you're in the right mindset none of that shit really matters, since you'll just see it as a fragment of their divine self living an earthly life just like you are.

Ask yourself whether you feel the need to live in the past and why. Ask how you built the connection of a spiritual partner to begin with. It started somewhere, why can you not build that once again? Should you? What is your reason for being here in this time and age? What is their reason for being? With a good person you can perform good works more effectively. You can find that same energy elsewhere as well, the trap is to just believe it's in a single person.

>In Genesis, Eve convinces Adam to sin, thus creating suffering for all of humanity
>In greek mythology, Pandora, the first human woman, unleashes from her box/jar all of the suffering in the world
>In Gilgamesh the character Enkidu lives like a free man, eating grass next to animals and drinking from lakes, being completely happy, until he sees a naked woman and gets corrupt and all of his sufferings begin.

Ok, I get it, all of the suffering of men origin from women. They are the ones who made us become a "society" instead of freely living like animals in the forest and thus created suffering.
Should I do SRG if I want to follow this path? For me masturbating makes me unhorny and I stop thinking about women for a day at least, but I know that after not masturbating for some time you get desexualized or so I heard. What are your experiences with this? Do you have a high sexual drive after not masturbating for some time or are the myths true? I just want to forget the existence of women completely.

The moment you do any type of yoga is the moment you've submitted to Hinduism. Yoga is strictly Hinduism, it's literally poses of their "gods," to invite them into your life.

I posted in a thread about a month ago, about the Tibetan rites and how they may help for transmutation of energy and quell urges.
I'm on day 37 of doing the 5 rites and retaining, and I have to say they do help. There were some days where I missed performing the rites, and the next day I was very lustful. That being said, as of the past few days I have been having even stronger urges and the 5 rites don't seem to help as much as they did. I will begin performing the 6th rite soon, and see if this helps further.
I believe that transmutation is needed, and if one does not have a passion or hobby they can sink into, a physical routine like this can be very helpful if not needed.
I workout as well, but unless I do it daily, I get urges.
Hope anons find this helpful

Also, what is this "verify my email" stuff? I have to wait 900 seconds if I don't want to put any email address here? Damn

Remember boys, that porn/masturbation is a serious addiction. Consider it heroin withdrawal. This is what helped me.

Whoever is just getting started, understand that you will go thru withdrawal. While you may start seeing benefits, you can not put your guard down. You will feel like shit often, because your brain's been fucked up for YEARS, and understanding that withdrawal is why you are feeling like this will help you to keep going. It will not last forever, you are healing and need to push thru this.

Second, dirty streaks do not work. You need to make a strong decision that you will never watch porn again, never masturbate again. If you edge for a bit while watching porn, it means that you are not really giving it up. It is the harsh truth, but you can not have the best of both worlds. In order to give it up completely, you will need to change as a man, you will need to take pleasure out of other, more noble things, and you will need the self-discipline to fight off the urges when they appear. Transformation must take place, where you are growing as a man.

Doesn't matter how far into the streak you are, if you just look at porn for a second, it means that you allowed yourself to look it up, which already means you got defeated, since you have the strength not to do it, but you give in. For the anons who go really far into the streak and then fail, it means they have not overcome the addiction.

Similar to when a heroin addict goes clean for a few months, and then gets high again. He did not just "reset the counter", he strengthened the addiction again, and it is clear that he did not beat his addiction.

Starting point is, decide that you want to go on a clean SR from now on. Then, whenever you are attacked by the urges, remember that you are going thru withdrawal, same as heroin, and realize that if only if you take one glance towards porn, you have already lost. If you feel like you're about to fail, ask yourself what you stand to gain and lose if you do.

Today is a shift. I'm going to start NNN early, let's consider tomorrow day one, as it's 8 minutes until midnight right now.

I've been masturbating chronically since I could ejaculate at 14 and I've never really stopped once. Not with porn all the time, there was a period there where I masturbated to the memories of one particular girl that I fucked, which was less than healthy... but the porn brain is something that needs to change. It might be the cornerstone of real growth, every time I read this thread I become increasingly convinced.

For transparency, I masturbated two or three times today already. Tomorrow I won't do it once.

You will predict the future. I've been playing more valorant recently and my gamesense is so tuned to a few seconds in the future that I can win gun fights I previously had no business winning. I can more effectively use comms in game to talk to randos online and I even tell them about semen retention. I actually do feel like I am honing and training a psi power when playing Valorant now.

Because you start going thru withdrawal after a few days. Your mind will make it seem as something so good, and on the other hand you will be tired, short of dopamine, more easily annoyrd etc. because of the withdrawal.

For the first few weeks the withdrawal is the strongest, and this is where the most will power is needed, as well as understanding how withdrawal works. After a few weeks, you heal a bit, but will still occasionally get attacked by the addiction so guard must always stay up.

This is why quitting porn once and for all is the only way. You have guys do SR but occasionally look at some porn - you are not actually defeating the addiction this way.

The only way is to give it up completely. On the bright side, besideds all the SR benefits, after beating this addiction, everything else in life is easier in comparison etc. Bbeating ither addictions or creating good habits
>>
>>39126141
Another point, seems like when the thought or memoru of porn comes to you, you entertain it. This is a huge mistake. The longer you think about it, the closer you get to making a decision to jack off, which once is made you eill do.

Know that those thoughts in your mind are a time bomb. If you entertain them for a second too long, that's it.

To deal with this, you need to cut off those shitty thoughts as soon as possible. If given too much attention, they will defeat you, period.

The tricky part is noticing these thoughts. You might not even realize you are thinking about it before the time bomb goes off. This is why meditation is great, it makes you be more aware of the thoughts.

So, as soon as these thoughts come, redirect your attention without thinking twice, before they become too powerful and overwhelm you.

Porn and masturbating being the greatest entertainment of all is crazy. This path requires you to learn how to extract pleasures from nobler things and actions. There is no coming back to it, that idea must die. Once it is no longer and option, you are forced to change.

But if you really have no greater entertainment than porn and masturbation, perhaps you don't have what it takes to be on this path.

Nofap isn't that important once you've done it a few times.

The goal of enlightenment is non-disturbance. This is what peace is: being less disturbed by things.

So, it's true that porn and fapping can sap your energy, but it's still draining to have a libido at the end of the day, even if it's not being put to use. In other words, it actually wasn't bad that porn/masturbation temporarily drained your energy. That may have been the purpose, even. It was only bad that it was such a consistent practice that you were never able to develop the ability to push thoughts of libido out of your mind. You couldn't control yourself because you always felt like a "new person", only so many days or hours after your previous session. Once you get past this by being able to control your masturbation, it's no longer an issue in your life.

So, unless your plan is to no longer have a libido, simply going nofap will not make your life much easier or healthier. The goal is to learn the skill to achieve the streak, which may be useful and applied to other skills. The goal is not to become celibate.
>>
>>39131263
So once you beat porn addiction you can once again watch porn and it is not as bad then?

Once you beat herion addiction it's okay to do heroin again?

Stop with the bullshit man. The addiction is not beaten until you quit forever.

Libido doesn't ever go away, so in order to quit porn and masturbation forever, you are forced to develop a consistently strong mind. You can go ckean for a year and fall into the same pit, as some anons have reported.

Porn is degenerate. The goal is not to achieve a streak, but to leave that degeneracy behind and have a nobler life. Doesn't mean you have to go celibate, get a gf or a wife.

>In the winter of 1417, a short, genial, cannily alert man in his late thirties plucked a very old manuscript off a dusty shelf in a remote monastery, saw with excitement what he had discovered, and ordered that it be copied. He was Poggio Bracciolini, the greatest book hunter of the Renaissance. His discovery, Lucretius' ancient poem On the Nature of Things, had been almost entirely lost to history for more than a thousand years.

>It was a beautiful poem of the most dangerous ideas: that the universe functions without the aid of gods, that religious fear is damaging to human life, that pleasure and virtue are not opposites but intertwined, and that matter is made up of very small material particles in eternal motion, randomly colliding and swerving in new directions. Its return to circulation changed the course of history.

>ethics and moral virtue?

On the tree from simplicity to complexity, these thought forms are fairly low in accuracy.

Think about ways you can define value.

1. Instinct. What feels good is what I should do.
2. Belief. What I hallucinate to be true is true.
3. Rationality. If I turn everything into absolutes, I can reason through them and prove absolute statements.
4. Mathematics. If I put numbers on things, I can weigh their relative contribution to the strength of an argument.
5. Science. If I consider how these quantified things were sampled, and I consider the accuracy and precision of the instruments involved (including the inner instruments of the self), then I can provide insight and non-linear analysis to models that a simple-minded rationalist might outright approve or reject.

You act as though this position of ethics is superior. It isn't. The primitive of ethical thought, the ethic, is a duplicate of the thought created when a person either full of belief or full of rationality. That's the language of what an ethic is.

So, do you want to determine the best ethics to follow by using that lower form of thought, or do you want to come to an acceptable list of ethics as devised by a scientific mind, and if so, does this not the subject up for scientific inquiry? And if we've made it this far, we can finally talk about why I think the subject of the thread is foolish.

when i practice SR all i become is sexually frustrated. my unhealthy attitude towards women does not change. i do not have increased magnetism. i still have the urge to orgasm. how do i transmute these energies? instead of just suppressing them.

By having a creative outlet.
Is there something you can do which is creative and you enjoy doing regularly?
The more energy you retain, the more creative ability you will have!

Aristotle was a clown who doesn't deserve mention among the other big Greek philosophers. In the list above, he could not rise above rationality. Read that description again. Aristotelian logic is about reducing things to absolutes, then trying to reason to absolute answers without involving numbers, without questioning perspectives (the experimental mindset).

You don't have to have someone to yourself to be their soulmate. Sometimes they are on your path during your journey. Its something I'm still learning how to do. Not getting everything you want. Not wanting more and more.

That being said I do notice a pull towards polyamory on SR. Like pulled to someone for a reason and there is an energy exchange. Once complete you move on but the connection remains. You keep some of that energy with you and transmute to someone else. It stacks.

What has everyone's experiences with MDMA/psychedelics during Semen Retention? I have experimented with a lot of drugs for 7 years now and currently craving MDMA since my last MDA roll 45 days ago (im on 44th day of semen retention) which was a beautiful trip. But IYE does it fuck with your progress/karma or we can utilize it to get the best results?

Because honestly i feel like im gonna burst at any given moment now and MDMA might be therapeutic for me to stay off masturbation (i have SO MUCH energy you won't believe, within the last 6 weeks ive been going to the gym, written a whole damn 30k word book along with 15 other articles, overall focusing on myself more as a person), even though i am aware its potential of being harmful and counterproductive as one can run into the urge to relapse after a roll to increase that dopamine and serotonin level.

>>39142469
Demonic influence is kept further at bay and angelic will come to you more easily on retention. Bad trips happen when you've been too degenerate
>>
>>39137547
ironically, yes
>>
>>39142492
So does that mean MDMA can be used for good during semen retention (ala meditation on it?)

Well for me MDMA is amazing for writing, lets the creative juices flow, dunno in what else it may aid

I broke my long streak once, i indulged in cooming and fapping, i had so much problems during those 3 months that i could witness myself feeding the succubi loosh for it to make me miserable. When that fact was proven for me, it triggered a decision, a flip in my mind, to be a life long retainer, im at day 72 now, my longest streak was 87 days, im profoundly decided to make it a live long thing. Im not going back to be a loosh cow for demons and the demiurge. I want full control of the matrix as i feel to have right now.

>craving MDMA
This is why i think sometimes that SR is for advanced, sovereign, aware, anons. If you have not understood already what drugs do to your body (temple) then you are probably too young to get it.
If you told me Shrooms, i would be okay, it may help, but MDMA will just make you exponentially more horny at the touch of your skin you would get a boner, which is dangerous if you are on a SR journey.
>been super active during SR
SR is NOT for the lazy, you must engage in productive activities since you wake up till you sleep, that way advancement is achieved, irl and spiritually.

>Libido doesn't ever go away, so in order to quit porn and masturbation forever, you are forced to develop a consistently strong mind.
Libido van go away with meditation and transforming your minds triggers for it. Rewire your brain to be stimulated by low level triggers less and less (exposure therapy, contemplation, willpower) and expect your heart and mind to turn on at spiritually higher concepts.

That is to say aim for transformative experience and put yourself in such positions to instill such growth.

I can finally see the benefits of SR showing themselves.

It was worth the wait.

keep persevering frens.

>>39143564
Demons only seek purity to destroy it or at best to extract loosh from it and steal it.

So uh… what do you guys do to pass the time? What do you do if your only interests are arguing online and doomscrolling? If I could, I would work 7 days a week but my body can’t handle it, so I always end up lying in bed on off days, and I usually relapse after binging social media shit and finally caving in to the dopamine urges to watch porn

I prefer to be alone. I’ve always been that way, even if people like me and I like them.

yeah I would do that if I could endure it but my knees are fucked up so I can barely work 3 days a week as it is. I’m hoping SR can cure my knees.

yeah like what? Tell us what you do, and show us your craftsmanship. All of it is boring to me.

I literally just want to work, eat, and sleep.

what kind of work you do?
stress is the greatest contributor to coom urges
>>
>>39144023
My work isn’t stressful at all, it just requires a ton of walking and it aggravates my knees, I don’t know what’s wrong with them but it sucks. The worst part is that I know fapping makes it worse, I can literally feel it in my knees after a relapse. I get coom urges only on my off days because I sit around in bed and get bored, then I use social media, and I end up seeing a lot of female images no matter what site I’m on and I get stupid horny. But you’re right about stress, sometimes I play chess and when I lose I get angry so I turn to porn. I’ve had to quit chess for that reason.

>>39144061
>I get coom urges only on my off days because I sit around in bed and get bored
that's a sign of stress. you can only feel it when you relax. NEET lords don't get suicidal coom urges coz they always relax.
try watching more movies, shitposting sprees on 4chan and gaming to relax. organic white wine and Coca-Cola helps too.
>>
>>39143988
Those were just examples anon, just do anything you find interesting, entirely up to you
>>39143940
You know youre meant to do stuff while not cooming right? If you just sit down staring at a wall you wont coom but you also wont use your newfound power for anything productive.
>>
>>39144189
I’ve asked several times in these threads what you people do, and I’ve never gotten a response. At the very least, I know that you use 4chan like me. But what do you do all day? Seriously, I want a time table. Is everyone addicted to social media and unwilling to admit it?
>>
>>39144189
it's a not a wall, it's a window to another dimension, computer monitor. there's always something new to stave off boredom.
>but you also wont use your newfound power for anything productive
staring at a monitor is very productive. good brain exercise.

>>39144221
i just told you what i do. and it keep my mind away from masturbation. is very productive.

Day 4 complete

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.

He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.

He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.

He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children forever.
>>
>>39143242
Do you find that they get mad at you and "punish" you if you don't feed them your loosh. Like they will try to get you in a negative mood that makes you sad/mad so they can feed off that instead of the loosh that you are denying them by retaining. I have noticed that on some of my longer streaks

Something weird happened to me the other night.
I awoke in a bit of a surprise. I wouldn't say shock, but I went from sleep to wide fucking awake in about 1 second. I felt a feeling in my scrotum. It seemed like electricity. Like when you accidentally touch one of the prongs on a power cable as you insert it into the electrical port. It felt like that, but not painful. It was a very curious feeling. It lasted perhaps 5-10 seconds. I didn't have an opinion of the occurance. I actually started drifting back to sleep within a few moments and then I began to feel the waves before an OOBE. I have never had an OOBE but I am very experienced in the run-up to it with the vibrations going through the body. I can control those on demand until the 'sound' is so loud then I chicken out. But less so lately.
Anyway, I have no idea what was going on with the scrotum feeling.
I'm at 42 days, not counting, just living life. I peeked a some still image smut a few times. Like a moment ago, which reminded me to come back to SRG.
I've been trying to pucker my ass muscle and I get this very minute feeling of something, and I try to imagine I can control it to go towards my head.
I have a lot more confidence and I've noticed people talk to me more. I think there is certainly something to the magnetism aspect.
Can someone tell me what the electric feel was near my ass. No homo please.

This was a good topic

>>39146047
Luce reminds me of my tomboy soulmate I'm looking for I lost contact with, a sign from God perhaps, I should find her on the saint jacob's road or in a church or combine the two.
