I’ve been fighting cancer since I was 15 years old (I’m almost 21 now) and every new day it’s just a precious gift, I’ve learned to value every little moment and actually do the things I love, in this span of time I’ve learnt bass, guitar and piano. I’ve also read a lot of books and right now I’m writing a book. I want to travel and I want to live like never before. I don’t care if I die tomorrow because I know I’ve given my all

When I was young my mother passed away. A few years back I was going through books around the house and found one about love that I didn't recognize. Inside was my mother's maiden name and countless passages she had highlighted. I could feel her beliefs and lessons so clearly, and could hold in my hand the very path she took to them, and eventually passed to me. A few months back I was pondering that I could recall the sound of my mother's voice, but not a single conversation we had. Then I had a dream where I had a conversation with her, knowing full well it was a dream, but relishing it all the same. That morning I woke up and my favorite mug, a mug she had gotten, fell and broke. Despite the loss of my mother, despite the loss of a mug associated with her, despite the loss of memories, what she gave me remains. Even if there is nothing after death, she remains with me in the love she showed me, and hopefully I can keep her alive by passing that same love onward. (Your videos are great, a succinct encapsulation of films and books that explore meaning.)

Your passion as you were reading Dostoyevski's letter! Wonderful. Last year I spent two months living in a Vipassana meditation centre, intensely meditating 10 hours for 10 days and then stayed to serve and practice at least three hours of sitting still every day. I felt I had many near-death-experiences. I felt I could die when I closed my eyes. Into nothingness. I understood with direct experience I could die any moment. And as all these sensations, thoughts, emotions and everything around me arises, stays for a while and passes away, so will I. Coming out of those two months I feel as if given my life back. But coming back to a busy society, where everyone acts like they're not going to die, is not easy. But at least... I am more alive.

@@ronjakatariina Thanks Ronja - it's certainly interesting to seek spiritual paths, and then to recognize that, as Wittgenstein points out, that all propositions are equal, given that they are logical. The paths to healing and acceptance - or actualization - are ultimately what will help justify our (my) existence. Of course, some are justified in not seeking anything more, for this is an equally valid path

@@yvonnejackson1696 your comment reminds me of a thing that a character in Taste of Cherry (1997) says when trying to talk the protagonist out of suicide: "I’ll tell you something that happened to me. It was just after I got married. We had all kinds of troubles. I was so fed up with it that I decided to end it all. One morning, before dawn, I put a rope in my car. My mind was made up. I wanted to kill myself. I set off for Mianeh. This was in 1960. I reached the mulberry tree plantations. I stopped there. It was still dark. I threw the rope over a tree but it didn’t catch hold. I tried once, twice, but to no avail. So then I climbed the tree and tied the rope on tight. Then I felt something soft under my hand. Mulberries. Deliciously sweet mulberries. I ate one. It was succulent, then a second and third. Suddenly I noticed that the sun was rising over the mountaintop. What sun, what scenery, what greenery! All of a sudden I heard children going off to school. They stopped to look at me. They asked me to shake the tree. The mulberries fell and they ate. I felt happy. Then I gathered some mulberries to take them home. My wife was still sleeping. When she woke up, she ate mulberries as well. And she enjoyed them too. I had left to kill myself and I came home with mulberries. A mulberry saved my life. A mulberry saved my life. Mr. Badii: You ate mulberries, so did your wife, and everything was fine. Taxidermist: No, it wasn’t like that. But I changed. Afterwards, it was better, but I had, in fact, changed my mind. I felt better. Every man on earth has problems in his life. That’s the way it is. There are so many people on earth. There isn’t one family without problems. I don’t know your problem - otherwise I could explain better. When you go to see a doctor, you tell him where it hurts. [Long pause.] Excuse me, you’re not Turkish, are you? [Mr. Badii shakes head] Here’s a joke. Don’t feel offended. A Turk goes to see a doctor. He tells him: “When I touch my body with my finger, it hurts. When I touch my head, it hurts, my legs, it hurts, my belly, my hand, it hurts.” The doctor examines him and then tells him: “You’re body’s fine, but your finger’s broken!” My dear man, your mind is ill, but there’s nothing wrong with you. Change your outlook. I had left home to kill myself but a mulberry changed me, an ordinary, unimportant mulberry."

this video is very stoic, and that is the tragedy of the modern age. Death is no longer in relation to life, but rather an idea, a concept alienated from one’s personal material conditions and political/sociological existence. We are to be stoics, to be mere viewers of our lives, objective viewers with no stakes in life. This is the tragedy of the modern age, or I guess the youtube landscape. It is the most devastating and existential tragedy I have ever experienced so far

What often happens, too, is that paradoxically life is so distracting you forget you are living, and often with this, living *unlived.* And this happens partly because of not confronting the world, but also because of how the world makes us forget, the political and social forces that incentivizes us to churn into a cog or think one-notedly about small but ever anxiety inducing problems. What are school exams compared to artistic goals? What is being late for work compared to sitting on a sidewalk? We should live fully, be fully, but whilst not completely damning ourselves for these faults, nor damning others for theirs.

The anxiety of death is part of life. Trying to "cure," the anxiety of it leads to a life of coming up short, as you will never remove the anxiety of death. The question is how to use it. Do you ignore the anxiety and pretend it doesn't exist? Do you accept and then dwell on it, nearly missing the moments of living for fear of dying? Or do you use that anxiety as a philosophical stimulant to do more in your own everyday life, whatever that means to you.

I do not agree. I believe it is very reasonably possible to remove the anxiety of death. Many do. Many people are scared of the pain associated with dying. Many people don't want to leave because of the people they would be leaving behind and how it would hurt them. Ties to the world. But many people have few enough ties that it's not a source of anxiety. I'm not saying they would just be ok with being shot. But they wouldn't be scared of the death. They would be scared of the pain.

So due to the ever omnipresent fact of death, we can choose to remove the inessentials of life to return back from our alienation from it through our distractions by the contingencies unimportant to what is our essential being itself. Not just merely being, or merely existing, but essence is what we need to acquire as the purpose of our life, socially and metaphysically, through fulfillment of cherishing the important. Death is absolute, and so our life must be absolute within death. Hegel had a very close near death experience, so I am trying to question what you said in a Hegelian way now. The absolute was at first just mere existence and being in general, then it moved to trying to reach our subjective essence as beings instead of just the finite portion of our lives. Cognition only saw being but now cognition must know essence existentially. This consists of a movement of Spirit as it changes perspectives of life and death from one perspective to another, giving it a metaphysical lust for life. The movement from determinate existence, or just determinate being to pure being, as Wittgenstein insists with the pure wholeness of time in the one self-contained life outside of death. We have purified our distractions, our non-essential worries and claims of life, purified the immediate determinate being which ignores the fate of death by seeming to be repetitive in its daily routine implying its eternal nature and obscuring the infinite (which is death) from the finite (the basic determinate being day-to-day). Paragraph 810 of the Science if Logic - - ''If, therefore, the absolute was at first defined as being, now it is defined as essence. Cognition certainly cannot stop short at manifold determinate being, not yet at being, pure being; the reflection that immediately forces itself on one is that this pure being, the negation of everything finite, presupposes an internalisation, a recollection [Erinnerung] and movement which has purified immediate, determinate being to pure being.'' This is finally when we cognize the true essence of life outside its determinate and finite daily rituals. Therefore changing our being, like Heidegger said is the primary core of existence. All philosophers, by their very nature, are given a desire from birth and through life, to attempt to define and discover such a concept, so as to leave behind the finite to reach the absolute meaning of life itself, but is it possible? The second part of the same paragraph continues; ''Being is accordingly determined as essence, as a being in which everything determinate and finite is negated.'' Then we come to a similar theorem as Wittgenstein's but in Hegel's language, he calls this pure wholeness of existence outside of the experience of death ''the indeterminate, simple unity from which what is determinate has been eliminated in an external manner''; and essence is defined as ''the sum total of all realities''. ''the determinate element itself was external to this unity and, after this elimination, still remains confronting it for it has not been sublated in itself but only relatively, only in relation to this unity. We have already mentioned that if essence is defined as the sum total of all realities, then these realities are likewise subordinate to the nature of the determinateness and to the abstractive reflection and this sum total reduces to empty oneness.'' We see, Hegel climbed the highest mountains of spirit to the human mind. He went through what all philosophers going past to future, metaphysically required as the way to negate the finite shell of outward existence and reach its internal core properly. He adopted and he thought through and tarried out all these metaphysical positions himself, and in his writings, you can read this frustration, this restlessness, that each metaphysical position, in some way is inconsistent, fails to fully grasp the absolute meaning of life, and therefore ''Cognition certainly cannot stop'' at these junctures. ''Essence is in this way, only a product, an artefact'' is his simple conclusion of the paragraph. First it was from being to essence, as though in being there were merely artefacts, merely products to be transcended in their negation toward purity of being, to then find itself in this purity of being as just another product, of artefact, of the abstractive reflective will of cognition, an internalisation that is actually being posited as external, but is actually only seemingly external to its essence from the perspective of the dividing and negating side of subjectivity's separation of subject from object.

It's not easy to have real love for the things here considering the events taking place. And that also shouldnt be your goal .. your only subjective goal could be the appreaciation of the present moment youre living. Forget about the world and the people and seek for what you really could love here... look at the trees while your surrounded by them and listen to nature... if you're not around some woods, move somewhere where you find some.. they're easy to appreaciate, real peace. And just start doing what you want, it shouldn't harm others, but don't give a shit about anyone else judging what you wanna do. "A man sees in the world, what he carries in his heart"

Few days ago, i found my fathers journal from when he was 20 (now he is 54) and he had written about how one day he will be old and his kids will be the age he is now and he quotes about how he has got only this one life, and he will make the most of it because when he dies, he must not be terrorized of it but happy and content. Now i am his age and i have the same thoughts. The realisation that you dont have forever takes away lot of worries.

It is really original work, patterns are crossing over very diligently, the format is on point, but it seems like it lacks salt, to be honest I don't really know, I feel like something is off the harmony, maybe it lacks subtle seriousness. Thanks for this great work and looking forward for the new videos.

If you're looking at literature, Kierkegaard and Dostoyevsky are a good start. Camus, Sartre and Kafka also offer thought-provoking stories in this vein. If instead you're looking for accessible and stimulating discussions of death, the essays of Montaigne are a good entry point, also the works of stoics.

fyodor dostoevsky’s letter really touched me. I wanted to read more of his letters and type this one specifically in my journal, but when I searched it up it was different than the one you had in your video. Did you perhaps edit it? Or was it from a different source maybe.

Much better to be engulfed by peace and nature, which you can also experience in Thailand, and indeed my escapes to the countryside brought me a lot of happiness.
