I grow increasingly more inspired to do one of those week-long silent retreats. I think it might kill me but if it didn't, I would emerge a god.
It won't kill you, but nor will you emerge a god.
Wear comfy clothes...!

I've been curious about these retreats as well. Anyone you know done one?

Yes, she said it was life-changing. But she's pretty badass, so I'm not sure how much to take from that endorsement :/

Expand on the "badass" part, please.

Someone with great courage and an iron will. In other words, braver and more forceful than me, so I'm not sure I would get the same benefits she did. Although I probably need it more, so maybe that would counter-balance it.

You'd become a god by staying put in silence for weeks at a time? Hm. I put many question marks behind that.

Depends on the person and what is keeping them from godhood.
