Arthur Schopenhauer is considered to be one of the greatest philosophers of all time. He lived from the end of the 18th to the beginning of the 19th century and while he is often described as a genius philosopher, he has also been given less flattering monikers such as The Sad Prince of pessimism and The Messenger of Misery, due to his particularly unique philosophical views . He influenced the work of many great thinkers after him, from philosophers to psychologists to physicists. Arthur Schopenhauer’s work is part of the philosophy of pessimism and Schopenhauer is mostly known for his famous book “The World as Will and Representation”, in which he describes the physical world as the manifestation of an invisible force, a metaphysical will. Schopenhauer's philosophy is based on the idea that the world we perceive is not the real world, we see reality through our own personal filters, which Indian philosophy calls "the veils of Maya" that prevent us from seeing “actual reality”. Schopenhauer is one of the philosophers who pondered the most on subjects such as loneliness, solitude, boredom and what true happiness means.

Arthur Schopenhauer says “We can only be entirely ourselves as long as we are alone; therefore, whoever does not love solitude, also does not love freedom; for only when we are alone, are we free.” We hope that you enjoyed this video and for more videos to help you find success and happiness using ancient philosophical wisdom, don’t forget to subscribe.

I spend money on my cats and my road bikes and music, albums, vinyl and Cds and concert Dvds and Blueray. My cats are such a human and physical joy and comfort in life. Anyone that owns dogs will agee with this feeling of companionship that we pet owners have with our cats and dogs. Having not ridden road bikes for a while, I found that I still had my road bike handling skills intact. More importantly, I still relive the sheer joy of riding a road bike. Purchasing music is an investment in pleasure. I look up lyrics and use my knowledge of music structure to find out how a song is written. For me, music is a joy for the senses to be experienced over and over again. My joy with music is so profound that I have started learning piano, guitar and harmonica.

It was also a new beginning of searching his philosophy, proudly displayed in my library today, I owe more to this erudite than words can express…Cheers Arthur! this shot of whiskey 🥃 is for you! with my deepest respect and admiration dear Sire.

_The World as Will and Representation_ affirmed everything about growing up. I think it's easily one of the most unappreciated philosophies and explains so very much, whether in 1890 or 2021. Expecting bad things to happen does make the suffering less, it was innate for me.

Remember reading “When Nietzche Wept” and there is a line in there that says conquer loneliness to be free. It really made a mark on me and I remember sharing it with a therapist back then and he thought it was BS. I love my solitude now and have grown through it. As long as you are inquisitive and like learning, you never be alone. As Francis Ford Coppola said, learning is one of the few things in life that doesn’t bite back. Meditation now is adding a new level to this. It doesn’t effect me immediately but when practicing daily it sneaks in a sort of calm center to my existence.

I'm currently reading The Gulag Archipelago and Frankl mentioned Schopenhauer so I've arrived here. I actually made this revelation in my own life because I enjoy being in solitude but also flourishing. Once I learned to manage my emotions, life made more sense. Example : Because I'm alone doesn't mean I'm lonely or because I'm alone on valentines day doesn't mean no one likes me, then I go into the spiral of depression because of the connotations that are attached to the word lonely. Awesome video btw.!

My friend, I'm an English learner and because I'm blind I've chosen this kinds of podcast to learn English. What I try to mean is that in my language alone, solitude or loneliness only can be translate as soledad. We, Spanish speakers, lose a lot because we don't have this difference. All of us want to be little alone in order to have peace to think, or reading philosophy or I don't know, for the simple fact of being at peace. On the other hand, I think that no body in the entire World, wants to feel lonely. I read "One Hundred Years of Solitude" by Gabriel García Márquez, of course I've read it several times in my language before, and I think the translation was excellent, but I disagree with the title. To my humble point of view, the title "cien años de soledad" should have been translated as One hundred years of loneliness. If you've read it, What do you think? I apologize for my awful English and for bothering you. Take care, and have a great life.
