Personally, I've indulged in egotism and the aesthetic to an inordinate degree. So much, that I've grown weary of the aesthetic and the self."Your Self wants to perish, and that is why you have become despisers of the body! For no longer are you able to create beyond yourselves.
And therefore you are now angry with life and with the earth. An unconscious envy lies in the sidelong glance of your contempt.
I do not go your way, you despisers of the body! You are not bridges to the Superman!
Thus Spoke Zarathustra."
It seems my body is telling me to negate sensuality and become more conscious.
And so I've been doing so, negating sensuality, and thinking more coldly and starkly, and by doing so it seems I've come accross increasingly sublime sensations, ones that I'd never had experienced if I were still indulging in gross egotism, sex, psychadelics and food.
So I still think Nietzsche is right - that one should listen to the body, and if you do that, it will lead you to asceticism naturally, rather than unnaturally. If your body doesnt lead you to asceticism and wordly overcoming, then perhaps you werent cut out for that sort of thing.
