Sartre's Genius Philosophy - Life’s Meaning Comes from Nothingness

In the absence of god and religious belief, how do you find meaning for life? What if we are born without an essence? What to do when life becomes meaningless? And how to find a purpose in a modern world?

Meaning is possibly best explored through literature. Seems that it’s one of humanities oldest and most persistent questions. Great video

[@indigo22284]

Ah ha paradox once again. For, is literature not “a pacifying tool…” and “…a bourgeoisie fantasy that cushions against the harsh reality of life” ??

[@fasted8468]

There were three angels that were afraid of God. One ran and came back in hope. One ran and froze in fear of God. The last Angel is still running. God embraced the first Angel, went out and found the second who hid, and is waiting for the third who was cast away and wont return. The world is simple. Shockingly simple, just like the Germans were shockingly good hosts for the French people. Shocking is only shocking for people who don't know the truth

[@silentm999]

Im just now realizing that every philosopher was a creative writer, and vice versa. Meaning is DIY, but many are not capable of figuring it out for themselves.

I enjoyed very much your presentation. It was brilliant, clear, precise, compact and substancial. A bit fast for me, an Spanish speaking old man. This forced me to stop from time to time, which is an advantage since I could assimilate Sartre's ideas and reasoning. I was lucky enough to meet Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir on a kibbutz in Israel during their visit and my visit to the Middle East in the mid-1960s. I was invited to participate to a meeting around 7-9 people with them. They were interested in the communal life of the kibbutz, the possibility of war with Egypt and Syria (we were in the Upper Galilee, 500 meters from the border).

I think a philosopher can be measured by his influence. Sartre’s existentialism was influential in literature in this part of the world, for example Kobo Abe, Kenzaburo Oe, Takeshi Kaiko and more. I appreciate the length of this video and I was so moved by the concluding remarks.

[@Fiction_Beast]

Thank you! Sartre as a public intellectual wanted to be an every person's man. Proust wanted to be an artist so he wanted to create a work of art that stood the test of time. Both succeeded in their mission.

In this world, it is not popularity but truths that, in the end, matter. Influence? Many sadly influential things are promoted and end up of little consequence. But it is true, men like Hobbes and his Social Contract reverberates even today.

Definitely, meaning is best explored through literature and art, as may be explored by literature, music, paintings. Although philosophy, histories, religious divisions, science are always imperative for interpretation. I also ask myself, may God exist outside the creation of the universe ? ✨️Some intellectuals have been discussing these ideas for some time. I love your channel. It's absolutely one of my favorites. Proust, "In Time Lost," is also one of my favorite novels. The journey of reading books 📚

This screen has absolutely no limits it can display or render anything that you can imagine and even more. Right now it happens to be rendering and displaying what's right here. What we can do though is imagine that to this screen runs a giant wire and this wire hooks up to this giant mixing board with hundreds of knobs and each one of these knobs can be tuned and adjusted fine-tuned to change what is being displayed. It's like if you twist this knob here the colors will become more vivid, you twist this knob here the colors will dim, you twist this knob here the sounds will go wonky, they'll become louder or softer, you twist this knob here and you'll feel emotion you'll feel love or anger or hatred or jealousy or sadness, you twist this knob over here and your body morphs, your hand will morph into a tentacle, you twist a little bit more it turns into a claw, you twist a little bit more it turns into a wing, you twist a little more turns into something else and you can twist all of these and all of these knobs control everything that's being rendered and displayed on this screen called consciousness. Imagine I twist a knob of consciousness and if I twist this knob you won't be able to tell the difference between people and animals anymore and inanimate objects, there will be no difference between a table your mother and a dog if I twist this knob. Imagine other knob that I can twist, if I twist this knob time stops. Imagine that I twist a knob and you stop being human and you turn into a beer bottle. I twist the knob again and you turn into a pinecone. I twist the knob again you turn into a kangaroo. I twist the knob some more and you turn into the entire human race. Not a single person, the entire human race. I twist the knob some more you turn into the planet the entire planet. I twist the knob some more and you turn into the colour red you're not a living being anymore you're the colour red. Sounds trippy. Sounds impossible right and yet there is such a knob and many many other knobs. There are so many knobs that do so many freaky things.

This is a brilliant exposition, and the artwork that enhances the narrative is breathtakingly well-chosen. I especially enjoyed the painting where the little girl is entranced by the magical wonder of the goldfish swimming in a bowl whilst the adults gaze at each other, and the baby, each adult with a preoccupation of some kind. Is it possible to access a list of the artwork?

This is why I put a lid on philosophy and threw it into the sea... after many years of studying, and philosophising. Like an apparition philosophy has no lower extremity, there's a torso and there's the ground and nothing in between, it is spectral, hence its enemy is existence. Since it has no body it wants to possess a body to take revenge on it by ensnaring it inside a vial of rumination and soreness. It is insane for it has no body while the body is its prime concern. Of course it will never admit that it was summoned to ease the maddening burden of envy of God in heaven.

One of existentialism's core contentions is that potentiality is utmost from a state of nothingness from which all being erupts. However, even that thought Iis derived from language handed down to a thinker from previous generations. Descartes said, I think therefore I am." Apriori: those that are not don't ask the question if they exist. Similarly, a situation of non-existance doesn't have persons and their questions as a result of human existence. Yes?

Although I disliked his more violent leanings and choices in his own life, I find a lot of value in his works. After all we cannot judge a person by one or two actions alone, but ought to consider the totality of his pursuits.

[@titussamuel2440]

Existentialism versus essence is struggle of order versus freedom. As per Essentialism we are valuable because we have an Essence, without such essence or big soul we are animal and unhappy. Existentialism holds there is no such essence. We are all born into nothing. We build our meaning along the way. Essence is fiction. Man is born with choice, without choice all have one predictable destiny. How and where did man earn that ability to chose? Are we happy or sad at birth? We are free or able to chose owing to a faculty of memory, this memory helps guaranteed survival and expands our possibilities of fulfillment. A child is free not a replica of his parent, his happiness is born with him, he will use his independence to be as happy as his mother or even far more happier than his mother/community.

[@42BETWO]

‘Existence precedes essence’ makes no sense if the essence we give to existence is limited by the nature of existence itself. You can’t separate an bio/psychic organism from the environment that spawned it…they exist inseparably as one process like a wave manifests the ocean. What a thing IS, it must BE. A man can’t be a woman or vice versa no matter who you may choose yourself to be.

[@ChristianSt97]

Hello Fiction Beast ! You are awesome, I love your videos

[@shortminute]

Thanks for the video. You’ve become my go to site for philosophy. Have we surpassed collective meaning? Or is the self determined individual meaning Sartre sought amplified by social media? I have a teenager, who’s trying to define themselves by finding like minded friends. Outside of playing video games online, they’re finding it hard to meet in person. When they are together many stay on their phone and they interactions center around what they’ve posted to social media. Perhaps the phone holds the collective meaning they all seek while trying to appear as an individual at the same time?

Newton didn’t want “gravity” ascribed to him. And he states that it is “so great an absurdity that I beleive no man who has in philosophical matters any competent faculty of thinking can ever fall into it.” Original letter from Isaac Newton to Richard Bentley (1692) “Tis unconceivable that inanimate brute matter should (without the mediation of something else which is not material) operate upon & affect other matter without mutual contact; as it must if gravitation in the sense of Epicurus be essential & inherent in it. And this is one reason why I desired you would not ascribe {innate} gravity to me. That gravity should be innate inherent & {essential} to matter so that one body may act upon another at a distance through a vacuum without the mediation of any thing else by & through which their action or force {may} be conveyed from one to another is to me so great an absurdity that I beleive no man who has in philosophical matters any competent faculty of thinking can ever fall into it. Gravity must be caused by an agent {acting} consta{ntl}y according to certain laws, but whether this agent be material or immaterial is a question I have left to the consideration of my readers.” - Author: Isaac Newton For Mr Bently at the Palace in Worcester A 4th Lett. from Mr Newton Source: 189.R.4.47, ff. 7-8, Trinity College Library, Cambridge, UK Published online: October 2007

Of course, my own comments are a perfect expression of Bad Faith, but, unlike Sartre, I embrace this bad faith as I see myself as an integral part of a social structure 😂 and not at all free to behave as I wish because I believe in moral actions and this belief is predicated on an awareness of the thoughts and feelings of those around us.

Our task should be to make it easier for future generations, by doing serious studies which go way back, ,keep what serves humanity. That, instead of, arbitrarily deciding that people from the past were stupid, and we therefore should cut a big chunk of our own development, and its meaning, just because technology has made things so easy on us and we do not have the discipline to sit, read, and analyze, with the same love, and respect our ancestors had for us, when they strove to create these great stories to warn us about humanity;s defects. .Especially those related to ways of life which promote genocide, slavery, and other forms of self-extinction.

[@StopFear]

I have a suggestion for the video creator and narrator (assuming they are the same person). I think if you are making a presentation in English you should not, and do not have to, pronounce French names in their French pronunciation. For example pronouncing the last name Sartre with the French throaty "r". (it is called the uvular r). Since in the English language most people do not pronounce the letter "r" the way French people or the Arabic speakers do, then we also do not associate hearing it with what we are supposed to perceive. So if you say "Sartre" with the letter "r" pronounced the way the Spanish and English "r" is pronounced, then it will make more sense as that is how it would be pronounced by speakers of English. But when a speaker pronounces the names as they are pronounced in French then it sounds too strange.

In 2023, there are still over 4,000 different gods worshipped around this tiny blue dot. None believe in any of the 4,000 gods they don't worship. To ask "What is the meaning of life?" presumes that there is a meaning. Why should there be any meaning to life? It is chiefly predicated on a belief that we were created by an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent entity that had some pre-ordained purpose for every one of us. That not only voids any personal purpose in or of life as well as free will. Not that any of us can truly have free will as it is prejudiced by our own consciousness. Mankind's greatest quandary is realising that we must at some point have come from nothingness... Hence, the invention of gods, which merely kicks the can down the celestial highway.
