Inner Equestria Edition

Here we gather to talk about waifus and waifuism as we understand it.

>What is a waifu?
The being you love. In my humble opinion, finding your waifu is a blessing, capable of changing your life dramatically for the better - that's the power of love. Coming to know your waifu feels like the sun emerging on a chilly day, like a cup of coffee before work, like a sweet scent greeting you on the breeze. It's hard to speak about waifuism because it is so personal and so unique; when you fall in love for the first time especially, it is difficult to even recognize what's happening. All I can really say is that love songs and poetry start to make sense, that finally something meaningful stands out from the backdrop of your life, radiant and beautiful like the sun, a refuge from the dull grey of nihilism and depression.

Waifuism is the label we use to describe the activity of honoring that occurrence, with our time, attention, and effort; as well as the general ideas we waifufags have formulated around the experience.

Traditional waifu ramble: I've been thinking a lot about how people approach their waifu lately. I named this thread after a sort of thesis I'm coming to, the concept of Inner Equestria. Ultimately, I think there's a need to raise awareness about duality and non-duality as they apply to waifuism. These concepts are well-established in the philosophical and religious sphere already. Most people already operate from an assumption of duality, that the world is split into separate, unrelated parts like Subject and Object. Non-duality adds a third element to this formula, using our example: Subject, Object, and Relationship, or the medium which enfolds and connects both entities. If the two entities had no medium connecting them, there could be no interaction between or awareness of one another. In waifuism, the same principles may be considered - people typically start from an assumption of total separation between themselves and their waifu, and from there leap to externalized concrete pursuits like space travel or genetic engineering to make ponies real. The non-dualist, however, might recognize that the experience of the waifu to begin with already is a connection with her. What do you think?
