Welcome to the Semen Retention General!
Complete Edition!

>What is Semen Retention?
Semen retention is the practice of completely abstaining from masturbation and ejaculation, often with the intention of preserving and redirecting vital and sexual energy to oneself.

>Why do it?
Reported benefits include: increased vitality, mental clarity, reduced stress, increased motivation, increased energy, improved focus, healthier hair/skin/eyes, deeper meditation, improved AP/Lucid Dreams, deeper voice, improved mood, greatly improved testosterone, improved physical strength and many more.

>Wet Dreams?
They happen because you had a sexual dream and you coomed. Learn to be conscious on your dreams and stop the succubus.

>What causes wet dreams?
The causes are many: Illnesses, telepathic bad actors fucking with your dreams, excess energy build up, watching too much sexually-inducing stuff, lusting during the day, lack of an adequate transmutation activity, eating too late at night, excess nutrients overall, stimulants like maca, ginseng, ginger, excess protein, excess carbs, tight clothes (pajamas) for bedtime, bad sleeping posture (this varies, find the one that suits you best), going to bed with full bladder, exposure to hormonal disruptors via food (pesticides...) or body care products (soap, deodorant etc)...

>In case of urges:
- https://imgur.com/a/nofap-anecdotal-evidence-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

Keep in mind that the efferent nerves attached to your testes necessarily means that any lustful thought, image, or sound is necessarily a command to your junk to produce sexual fluids and this is the reason why celibacy is first and foremost of the mind
The root of this entire matter is the mind - without conquering the mind, celibacy is a futile effort
The signals from the brain happen on the subconscious autonomic level
This is why any lustful thought, image, or sound is necessarily a command to the sexual organs to produce sexual fluids (the more intently you look, the higher amplitude of a signal gets sent: body > afferent nerves > brain > efferent nerves > body)
Therefore "Conversion of sexual energy to something" is necessarily a HORRIBLY inefficient process (Not to confuse with Sexual Transmutation)
Fluids will be reabsorbed, but the energy and materials cost to make it vs how much is "taken back" via reabsorption is SEVERELY unbalanced and super net negative
Sexual fluids are made from the cream of the crop of the body's resources - constantly generating them means that you are constantly draining away the cream of the crop of your resources.
Taoist writings said that the sexual organs will even take primacy over nourishing your other internal organs at some point. (Thus, doing a spiritual practice as a coomer is a surefire way to die faster).

It’s always good to remember why /x/ is the most accurate place for this topic: SR is one of the clearest paranormal inducing topics among all discussed on /x/. It’s a sacred practice that has been the one of the main focuses in every major religion or spiritual practices. The mystical side of it is what we try to focus on.
SR can be also be seen as a political issue. The porn industry is a tool made by the Jews to deteriorate and corrupt societies. Porn works in ways that program new sets of behaviour in its audience and because of its strong addictive qualities they stay hooked. The most important goal for porn’s male audience was and is the release of their semen. As we now know, the disadvantageous consequences of releasing are heavy: a man becomes less of a man, he gets sick and weak, his mind numbed, he will have impotence issues etc. Upto the point his spirit almost dies.
SR is beneficial to make one healthier and stronger, more fit, if you will. So the topic could be discussed on /fit/. Anyone looking for more ways to get fitness gains would benefit hugely from the SR.
Also SR has so many other benefits that it could be discussed in the /adv/ board. These would be topics how it improves one’s social life, mental state, makes more time to be more productive etc.

The biggest benefits of SR are mystical in nature and the whole practice is fundamentally very close to the spiritual side of things. All the other topics in /x/ are left far behind and SR actually makes this board of any relevancy. This is also known by the enemy and they make strong efforts to suppress, hijack, twist to end this discussion.

lads is it normal to want to cry while on SR or am I just a lil BITCH
it's nice desu and I don't credit SR alone for it but I would like to be able to more easily handle emotions and SR just makes me extra sensitive
i guess I understand that cooming makes ya numb and i'm prolactinpilled as the onset of emotions comes about two weeks into a streak
I'm not really attracted to being a stoic motherfucker who refuses to let emotions have any influence over them but I also don't wanna be me finding excuses to go for a walk so i can sit in the park and cry away from loved ones
>>
>>41818422
No. You need to first invest mentally, and then do the actual work. You will start having dreams where the succubus/succubi wants to have sex with you. At that point you need to make the firm decision not to that. You repeat that every time it happens.
>>
>>41818788
This is because you haven't developed the emotional part of your soul properly. That part is now catching up to your other primary soul forces (willing, and thinking). This can be a little overwhelming. In time you will be fine.

The essence of SR is purity of mind. Without purity of mind, there is no SR.
To achieve purity of mind, you need mental discipline and mental hygiene. To practise mental hygiene, to have control over your thoughts, to understand the mechanism of the mind, you need to meditate.
There's no SR without meditation. Meditation is the foundation. SR is the flower that blooms from the ground built on meditation.

what do you think about shart retention?

my wife was pestering me for sex. begging for it. i told her fuck you bitch, im a retainer now. but the nagging didnt stop. ive now got her a bull. he comes around and often taunts me, gives me a weird smirk. it doesnt bother me. at the end of the day, im a retainer, and he isnt. that makes me a better man than him. im better than 99% of men. i am ascending.
>>
>>41818788
Alot of people use sex (especially in the west) as the outlet for the trauma and a way to suppress all their other emotions.
Once you remove gooning from the equation, your body-mind is forced to confront the feelings it has stored inside of it. Which for especially traumatized people, can be very difficult.

Semen Retention / Sexual Containment
Semen retention functions as a specific application of spiritual containment, wherein generative energy is preserved rather than discharged into horizontal reproductive circuits.

The goal is coherence, not the retention itself. When seminal energy is repeatedly expelled, the nervous system and psyche entrain toward short-cycle gratification, reinforcing instinctual loops tied to reproduction, attachment, and emotional reactivity. Retention interrupts this loop, forcing generative energy to remain available to the whole system.

Over time, this conserved energy is reallocated upward, into cognitive endurance, symbolic thinking, moral restraint, and sustained intentionality.

Crucially, retention differs from repression: desire is governed, not rejected. When held consciously, sexual energy becomes a stabilizing force that increases density of presence and continuity of will.

Without ethical alignment and temporal discipline, however, retention can distort into rigidity or ego inflation; when properly integrated, it reorganizes the psychic economy toward coherence, patience, and deliberate action rather than compulsive release.

stoics do observe emotion very carefully thus the influence
a stoic motherfucker would regard an aroused exposure to loved ones as a proximity threshold

Spiritual development is about organizing energy, not simply accumulating it. Jung’s libido is total psychic energy, not just sexuality. Repeated discharge through sex, consumption, or stimulation keeps energy diffuse, bound to instinct and short-cycle gratification.

Containment introduces pressure, creating coherence. Unlike repression, desire is consciously held, allowing energy to transform rather than distort.

Sexual continence exemplifies this. Discharge fixes libido in reproductive and attachment patterns. Once a union occurs, energy is encoded in memory, directing future flow into instinctual loops.

Containment interrupts this, reallocating energy along the ego/Self axis to support attention, symbolic thought, moral restraint, and continuity of will. Without ethics, containment risks inflation.

Diet mirrors this principle. Eating “things that grow” (fruits, vegetables, grains, fungi) aligns consciousness with renewal and patience. Flesh and blood reinforce predatory, survival-driven circuits.

This is psychological hygiene: repeated consumption conditions affect and imagination, reducing instinctual noise.

Silence and sensory restraint preserve energy further. Excess stimulation leaks psychic power as surely as indulgence.

Containment requires time; short restraint frustrates, long restraint refines. Failure comes from repression, ethical neglect, or hoarding energy without purpose.

Proper containment enables unity without collapse, intimacy without depletion, and power as a natural byproduct.

day 8 semen reteaining. hope to be back in the club.

>>41818404
well women are fundamentally different. but treating sexuality for what it is (the holiest thing of all) and never making it habitual or committed for any reason other than the purest, unadulderated, divine lust is good for all beings. just don't use sexual satisfaction as an escape from yourself / your problems, as a form of solace (for yourself or for others) and you'll see where the divine path leads.

Energy shapes the mind and character. Freud treated instinct as a drive to be discharged; Schopenhauer saw sexual desire as the Will’s trap; both leave the psyche at the mercy of impulses. Jung shows another way: libido is general psychic energy that can be consciously contained, not suppressed.

Sexual continence, silence, sensory restraint, measured plant-based diet, ethical vigilance, and solitude all preserve energy, allowing tension to transform into focus, clarity, and moral authority.

Time multiplies this effect: restraint is refinement. Indulgence scatters energy into reactive, horizontal circuits; conscious containment channels it upward into symbolic, cognitive, and creative capacities. Integration, not repression or negation, is the path to coherence, presence, and enduring personal power.

the thing is not about semen retention, is about not using porn, if you stop your porn abuse, then you will naturally not ejaculate as much, its not about not coming, but about coming naturally, porn takes away the nature of your sexuality

there's no meaningful difference between normal porn and this, even written smut or your imagination is the same shit
>>
>>41820519
i'm not trolling, the oneitis thing was a joke but my question was ultimately sincere
>>41820523
OK so the anon I asked emphasised porn use, do they (you?) mean cumming naturally is only through actual coitus? or does it also inclide jerking off with no porn but since without that hyperstimulation you just aren't inclined to jerk off that much? so if you're gonna jerk off do it without porn and not even your imagination, just... like through physical sensation and complete meditation on that? just tryna understand
>>
>>41820540
i'm not that guy, just passing through
my stance is that jerking off is always the same and that only real sex where you're in the moment is different
whether it's bad or good idk
>>
>>41820407

Anon, you are generating your own porn.
> so if you're gonna jerk off
If you are going to jerk off, jerk off, don't make excuses or mental gymnastics on how to do it without really doing it.
You either abstain or you don't.

It is of the utmost importance that in seeking perfection, acquired only by union with Jesus Christ, we should rid ourselves of all that is evil in us; otherwise, Our Lord, who is infinitely pure and infinitely hates the slightest stain on our soul, will cast us from His presence and will not unite Himself to us.

Devotion to the Most Blessed Virgin Mary is necessary. Nobody can acquire intimate union with Our Lord and perfect fidelity to the Holy Ghost, without a very close union with the most Blessed Virgin and a great dependence on her aid.

Mary alone found grace with God (Luke 1:30), without the help of any other creature. Since then, all who have found grace with God have done so through her, all who are still to come will find it through her.

Those truly devout to Mary do not serve this august Queen for lucre or self interest, nor for their own good, be it temporal or eternal, corporal or spiritual, but simply because she deserves to be served, and God alone in her.

>"When Mary upholds you, you will not fall; when she protects you, you need not fear; when she leads you, you will not weary; when she is favourable to you, you will reach the harbour of salvation."
St. Bernard

I can verify two nofap claims.
1) animals are drawn to you. My sibling's new dog who doesn't know me would not leave me alone and immediately sat down on my feet. Another time I was out for a walk and a baby fox was just clocking me.

2) girls are attracted to you. A pretty girl hit on me. It was absolutely bizarre. I dont know what it was but she kept touching me, making eye contact and commenting on my nice face.

Reminder that if a woman sleeps with more than one man within the span of a few years (even more desu) then she's a whore, and should be avoided at all costs. Also, any man defending their actions is a cuckold beta simp who's opinions should be discarded and ignored. If you want your spiritual journey/healing to go anywhere then you must move beyond this degenerate behaviour and recognise it for what it is, only then will you progress.

that's the ideal scenario and women who only do ltr's are the only ones i'm genuinely attracted to if everything else is per my looks, but i'll still fuck some whores because i'm 8.5 - 9 inches so it's extremely unlikely that she's fucked a longer dick than mine. so i'm like the main man that comes in and really drives the nine inches right into her hole so for me it's as if nobody else has fucked her you see, because i'm the one reaching new depths.
>>41822428
a big load is by design to be emptied into a cute woman's vagina. it's where it belongs anon. it's really her semen, not yours. but you see the reason you're relying on semen so much is that your mind is awful. there's constant rumination, zero insight, and zero clarity. the issue with most of you in here is that you're relying on sr for the energy boost when it isn't actually necessary. the biggest energy depletion begins in the mind and you retards just fail to acknowledge that. constant rumination takes a fuck load of energy. ejaculating inside of a woman raw takes much less energy and provides you with benefits for other areas of the brain and mind to counteract it

I can't help but feel bad for him. If he were drinking or shooting up to cope with how bad life is for him everybody would be telling him to get checked into rehab but because it's porn people just shrug and leave him be.
