how do i get freed from our primal instincts?

ugh!!! i really do not like most of'em... especially our instinct to be romantically involved. it is stupid and it kinda makes me feel less of my self, thinking that nature has got more control of me more than i have of myself. i also do not like being confronted by a situation where i end up loathing a person or something no matter how much i try to convince myself to not feel that way. there are still much more of our primal instincts and we seem to be pretty hard wired to them.

What do you mean by "freed"? You cannot lose the desires that are biologically programmed in your DNA. You can certainly avoid being in romantic relationships through isolation though, I have done it for years.

@Andromeda224 yeah i am well aware of that... i just wish that there is a way to not have to deal with all these... because they mostly are at war with my brain and they're pretty strong... i cannot isolate myself but i always try to suppress any sort of attraction but it's tricky and though i've been doing it all my life, i still haven't completely mastered it

@Rafa369 You would have to look into meditation, fasting and mental discipline

@Andromeda224 hahaha... funny because i am actually doing both... i am on the omad diet which basically is just a variation of fasting and i also do meditation, and i practice rhythmic breathing and mindfulness not just during meditations
