The tongue doesn't emit what we call noise, nonsense, no tongue is actually speaking.

No one is actually speaking, but the ripples in the Aether what we call sound waves are picked up by a biological instrument called the ear, and the ripples bounce of the ear drum so to say. We use language to interpret vibration. Word's are vibrations....

That first minute is me in a nutshell, and I imagine most others. Consume all the "right" content (philosophy, exercise, well-being, productivity etc) but live my life in not the most ideal way... It's very difficult to walk the walk!

[@darbrad3952]

Right there with you.

[@timoxyz1466]

once you grasp that every egoic action will be compensated for by constellation of the opposing psychic complex you are leaning in the pain voluntarily.

[@Cheximus]

@@timoxyz1466 that's interesting, can you perhaps expand upon that? Or point me in the direction of some reading?

[@timoxyz1466]

@@Cheximus In Carl Jungs work, there is the ego-complex and the opposing force the shadow(ego-dystonic complex). The ego complex would be best summed up as your ideal self and the shadow the worst version of you. Since both of those things exist in almost every individual they fight for 'being you' so to speak resulting in the usual up and downs of life and ultimately in the hedonistic treadmill trap. You will find yourself in the middle of both, every time you near your ideal self the shadow will hinder you and throw you back.(just look at your life there you can clearly see it) Thus resulting what other traditions call karma or karmic game. (They kinda just explain it bad it isn't do good get good. Rather do egoistic stuff and the opposing shadow will be pissed about that) Now once you realize that every egoic action has its consequences you can choose to get rid of the harsh ideals of the ego or almost free yourself from it entirely which is then called enlightenment in spiritual traditions. (escaping the karmic game) If something needs further explanation just let me know. Carl Jungs work and other depth psychology as well as Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and e.g. the Tibetan book of the dying + Timothy learys interpretation of it are great sources to expand on this but you gotta puzzle it together your self and most importantly try to find this karmic sequence in your life :)

[@Cheximus]

@@timoxyz1466 nice man, thanks, I appreciate it. I guess it's a similar concept of ying and Yang. I've had very similar thoughts whilst using LSD - everything is opposites. Love, hate, pain, joy etc. I'm coming at it from a very basic level but I think I see what you're saying. I certainly indulge in hedonistic activities to the detriment of my future (and current, to an extent) future self. Thanks again.

Dear Author, thank you so much for this amazing video. For the past few months, I was in search of something that would put my mind at ease. Nothing worked, music did not cover the topics that worried me, and communicating my thoughts only added discomfort and continued discomfort, listening to motivational or psychological videos did not give the needed intellectual and emotional response, but this video reminded me of the main principles and values that kept me content and thriving in the past and what I lost as stopped reminding myself of them. I like everything in this video. It is a huge educational and art work. Thank you!

How to embody philia Sophia? It is a state of being in which the logos and Eros can flow through us without being bound by the attachment and the illusion of sepperation. I am very grateful for what you do. Keep up the great work

[@Truewing777]

From what I understand the philia Sophia is the masculine and feminine balanced.. when they are well balanced a state of wholeness may occur which gives greater potential to your interpersonal relationships. Ie a greater and more profound relationship between partners, and possibly even more inclusive.

So many concepts, it becomes necessary to watch again.

[@ozymandiasultor9480]

Philosophy is a very wide area, a very wide subject, but the best definition after 6 years of studying philosophy, for me, is that philosophy is a study of ideas. Philosophy is not a science, and there is very good reason for that, any science has to have in its foundations a few axioms, propositions that are taken as such, without the need for proof, or evidence... Philosophy has no such axioms, which is explained in the "Introduction in philosophy" by Eugen Fink... Of course, some may claim that logic is science, logic is part of philosophy, or at least that is how I studied that field, but logic (and perhaps math) is just an "organon", a tool that science is using.

[@EnclaveHater07]

Based

[@bennieb8586]

A good dialectical perspective. Philosophy can be viewed as part of the humanities. On the other hand Philosophy is a discipline in the interdisciplinary cognitive science. Along the spectrum with anthropology and psychology because social signalling primates require religio. As for metaphysics the learned ignorant might be agnostic.

[@ozymandiasultor9480]

@@bennieb8586 I am an agnostic atheist, I don't believe in the claims of religious people. And metaphysics, I had to go over all that torture, reading and learning metaphysics to find out that it is a dead end, that metaphysics has no real worth, and all the metaphysics can be thrown in a bucket.

[@jagpro91]

The best definition of philosophy is in the name itself and doesn't need to be changed, it literally means "love of wisdom." A "study of ideas" is too clinical and detached, whereas "love of wisdom" better sets out the purpose of philosophy and the relationship between philosopher and philosophy.

[@captainzork6109]

Wisdom is to somehow come up with the right answers to the right questions, despite living in a world in which right or wrong is not predetermined ...maybe

I'm not trying to take away from this video. I know it took a lot of hard work, but it's basically Pierre Hadot's work.

This type of works speaks to my soul. Reminiscent of being a child and listening to a bed time story told by my grandma. Instead of stories that stimulate my imagination, philosophy on the other hand is like a gift to my reincarnated self from my previous selves, guides that stack on top of one another preparing me for this very experience again and again.

This is so good. You do good work. Rich, substantial. Incorporating any life-system into your everyday life is not easy. Fraught with many challenges. It looks easy til you try. This is why even small gains can be thrilling. Humbling experiences along the way. My approach has been more organic. I still end up in the same places as the sage's teach. So it feels like I am validating their philosophies for myself. But some things I learned the hard way. And some lessons can be expensive. It is always better, I would argue, to first survey the wisdom of the ages before you plan a strategy and set out on your life-journey. Could've saved me much trouble n woe. I can see now. In hindsight. When I could've used some insight and some foresight. Thank-you for what you do, Mr. E. Happy New year.

I love the philosophy of classical antiquity, but it's always important to keep in mind how disturbing their morality was. In ancient Greece for example, when slaves were required to provide testimony in court, it was mandatory that they did so under torture. Breaking the legs of a slave was a common punishment, even for incompetence. We have no records of any philosopher from the period criticizing this cruelty. I'm not trying to impose my morality on a different time period, or suggesting we should 'cancel Artistotle' or some nonsense like that, but there's no denying the Hellenistic world was a _very_ cruel society.
