Interresting to find these old videos with Dr. Frankel. I read some of his books in my youth at the time, they vere given to our world. He is an incredible humanbeing and inspiration and still so important today - even more than then!

This was definitely interesting to hear Dr. Victor Frankel speak in his own words.

[@haydenwayne3710]

A seriously important man!

[@alexanderhomoky1140]

Wow wee. Dr Frankl is an OG. God bless him ❤

[@phinemarie]

Listening and obeying your conscience; what is one’s path, and one’s duty and response-ability. It does not contradict dharma. He guides people to deep awareness of our relationship to the world and devotion to greater values based in compassion and truth, in a secular environment. I think Frankl is a holy man in disguise.

[@robbrown4621]

Perhaps Frankl was a holy man but actually not in disguise. Perhaps, it is only in our own vision or lack of vision that we perceive a disguise... :)

What Dr Frankl expresses so passionately on sex is true. What Dr Frankl expresses so passionately on meaning in life, so very true. He came to such wisdom on his own, before his studies. As would every one of us were we not followers of words of others rather than our own life experiences. Wisdom is the same in any and every age. Humans keep trying to re-invent the wheel, all the way to the bank. Thank you for posting this precious video.

I am glad to hear this comment by Dr. Frankl that humor is most therapeutic, as well as person ridiculing their own psychological symptoms, phobias, etc., as part of their healing process. This sounds like an easier and more immediate way of obtaining the results of sensory or emotional detachment from ego; results similar to the lengthy dharana process in yoga meditation. In other words, observing and disciplining (or self-directing without moralistic judgment) the ego, or false ego, while building and promoting the true or upgraded self through meaning (responding to life) and then being. I was at first surprised that Frankl would minimize the importance of self-actualization, but now I understand that the self-actualization is a byproduct of creation in response to life circumstances and giving of oneself, or "losing oneself" (the death of ego.) This approach is diametrically opposed to escapism because it encourages one to remain engaged and down to earth with the life's challenges. Just hearing about this is therapeutic in itself. Thank you for sharing!

Such profound words. Sometimes I wonder, why I can't think in such a way. I admire Dr. Frankl a lot and his contributions to society are immense.

Thanks for post this great interview

[@garypuckettmuse]

Oh, wow, this is so deep. So deep. I'm afraid a lot of people misunderstood him because they did not listen closely and fully to his ideas they cherry picked some catch-phrases out of context. Thank you for posting this gem!

Responsibility/Liberty = Freedom 20:07

[@marzymarrz5172]

What an expansive view of humans. I love his emphasis on personal responsibility and our obligation to make responsible choices. Sounds like a plain speaking recipe for living a moral life. Without actually saying it Dr. Frankl is basically saying something like ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.

I'm a Spanish speaking person. I'm not sure if the doctor says "that allows to be existent" at 2:24 and "ediple situation" at 3:26 Can someone help me please????

[@invisigaming357]

I don’t know about the first sentence, maybe he meant to exist. However with the second sentence I think he meant with ediple situation, as an Oidipal situation. As the analogy of Oidipus relating to Freudian psychology is an essential metaphor to explain how children interact with their parents. And God being perceived by some as a father figure is linked therefore how people could think of him in an oidipal way. Maybe.

[@Robloxman226]

"The Oedipal situation." It refers to one of Sigmund Freud's theories about childhood development.

[@factswise-psychologicalfac84]

Wow...just a bunch of reasonsble people talking professionally...where can you find such a discussion in today's western society?

[@canobenitez]

you have to look deeper but there is plenty, specially on youtube (forget mainstream media), Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro had quite a few interesting conversations, Andrew Huberman and Lex Fridman is another example.

[@compactcasette]

Used to be normal. Even amongst those that disagreed strongly

[@TokyoShemp]

Scripted. Famous people are not as smart as the ptb's would like one to think.

[@alexanderhomoky1140]

Intellectuals back in the day actually did speak like this in public discussions. Eg. Chomsky and Foucault. Respectful, measured. Sure, probably some preplanning, but otherwise unscripted I would say
