This was the best lecture at Ford Hall in 1990. Now, is the best Ayn Rand Institute video.

1:24:09 right at the end. This is why I love Leonard. So direct, so cutting. I wish I had that level of absolute clarity

"You can apply your personal beliefs [objectively] as long as they are more than personal but also logical. If they are not logical, they should not be your personal beliefs. You should drop them and get other personal beliefs."

Philosophy of language is a example of unreason. Objectivism is the true philosophy in western thought.

Philosophy of language is unreson. Peikoff said the truth.

Awareness is known by awareness alone; is the sole irreducible axiom of reality. To put forth a syllable to the contrary is but to concede.

Are you aware of the motive behind the choice to be aware? Or is everyone aware?
@jacksonstone246 2 ай бұрын
Also to be aware there first needs to be SOMETHING to be aware of. I assume you don’t know anything other than the word “awareness” if you aren’t aware of anything else.
@jacksonstone246 2 ай бұрын
Awareness is limited. You aren’t aware of everything unless you mean “everything” then you know nothing.

Awareness is the Only constant of All experience what could be more fundamental to reality than that?

"The author believes that epistemology has kidnapped modern philosophy, and well nigh ruined it; he hopes for the time when the study of the knowledge-process will be recognized as the business of the science of psychology, and when philosophy will again be understood as the synthetic interpretation of all experience rather than the analytic description of the mode and process of experience itself." Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy, 1926. Within 6 minutes of this video, the point about epistemology gets proven on the exact same subject (the fall of philosophy).

If existence exist as SOMETHING what is that something, and if existence exist as ALL THINGS what knows all things?

5:01-6:58 is basically Matthias Desmet's recent (and massively disappointing) book in a nutshell: blame herd behavior on too much individualism, and insane public policy on too much science. As the young folks like to say, SMDH.

@@donald1292It is enough to be aware, to be aware. It is enough to be aware that one is aware, to be aware that one is aware. Being aware is an objective relation that requires no awareness of it, in order to exist. There is no infinite regress.
