Thanks

Daniel Haqiqatjou has some interesting thoughts ☯️ you should check him out and his most popular videos

We must know suffering, to know joy, therfore they are the ying and yang of eachother. Edit: I wrote this about a minute before you said it in the video.....

Even in the modern world I think most people do suffer, whether emotionally or physically, even those we think to be the most privileged. Not everyone learns from suffering, some even become addicted to suffering, and then their are those who suffer and die from said suffering. It can have great value, but I disagree with the theory that people are so different than they were in ages past, technology/the world changes people remain the same as they always were.

I wonder if Nietzsche was addicted to drugs or alcohol, what he described sounds like a cycle of addiction, two to three weeks on... then thirty six hours of withdrawal... then repeat. Just an observation, I'm probably wrong (I know Nietzsche claimed to be hardcore straight edge but should we believe him?) It also could have been bipolar disorder? IDK... I feel bad for the guy for sure

If life is suffering, if life is intrinsically unjust and unfair, than life is fundamentally flawed. If u believe God exist, he has made a inferior creation and his reasoning is it's all our fault and not his even though he is all knowing and created everything as an all knowing being. Life is suffering, but that is not justifiable even though it's true. Life should be perfect harmony, but unnecessarily it is not that. Unnecessarily, life is suffering.

@@chasemanhattan9995you dont understand our history in the biblical perspective. The life that we know now is the life fallen away from God (what happened in Eden). Adam & Eve rejected the perfect form of creation fully governed by God and chose to choose for themselves. God on his part, permited this to happen so they and us, all of humanity could see how terrible life is apart from him, so we would go back to Him. We do this in micro form even to our children for them to learn who knows best whats good. But this period will pass away, and all that choose to go to Him through the completed work of our Lord Jesus Christ, will witness the perfect life as God intended for all eternity. This life and the eternity that is to come, is God showing us both sides of the coin.

It took me many years to understand God was answering my prayers.

I asked God to help me overcome but please let me enjoy my journey and have fun with it. He has been slowly bringing me along. I’m enjoying my journey and my suffering is fed to me without overwhelming me. So far. Please Lord let me continue my path and continue to enjoy life’s challenges.

@@olliefoxx7165sadly there people nowadays that tell you NOT to ask God for things like Strength or patience, because they will/may bring forth suffering or trials. How foolish.

​@@kenim😂😂😂 I asked for it, and it's been almost two years of trials and afflictions. I don't know if I should tell people to ask God for it too😂🤦‍♀️ It feels like I'm wishing them bad, but I know it is necessary to walk with God.

@@yamiletsoler3464 hahahahaha I get you sister! Asked God to know him more intimately and I’ve been in the wilderness for 4 years now! Its been a blessing spiritually but cant deny its extremely hard some times. If you dont have the base knowledge to understand what and why you are going through it, you will not make it.

You can do it, friend. Remember you have gotten through 💯 of your bad days so far. After the shit cycle as I call it always, always comes a golden cycle. You have a lot to look forward to whether you can see it now or not it’s true.

Maybe Alan Watts, Einzelgänger, Pursuit of Wonder, After Skool, School of life and/or Like stories of old can help you a little further.... Good to see you see it as a phase btw!

Am a Muslim who's currently fasting Ramadan! Well doing it indeed equates rebirth! You can learn to fast 2 days a weak , I can't state the amount of benefits it has regarding your health/mental state and senses as a whole

I think fasting is a cure for all disease I think fasting is the way to truly stay healthy

Essential Reading-- Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo, and last but not least O Henry.

I highly suggest travelling! Not tourism, real travelling. Just a backpack and see where the wind takes you. You could also volunteer and get some vicarious understanding of suffering. I think it’s admirable that you realise your ‘good fortune’ and what you stand to gain from a little suffering. It speaks to your self awareness. Good luck friend.

Eliminate comfort. Embrace pain. Embrace fear. Embrace the work. We. May start to realize our PC culture which strives to avoid offending any marginalized people, and yet insults and berates the majority, does little more than weaken the marginalized and strengthen those they seek to put down. This has been the Natural order through history. The conquerors grow weak. The conquered become strong. Putting down the hegemony, only going to strengthen it

what's the plan to avoid suffering inflicted on you?

@@omarisaxby8939 do you have one? Or are ya just asking this Erikson dude for his personal "suffering avoidance plan"? Maybe we can all compare plans?... What's yours?

@@omarisaxby8939 don't avoid, overcome. If an oppressor is making you suffer, you destroy him.

Totalitarianism stems from people who desperately want to avoid suffering. They believe they can shape the world according to their ideals and then everyone will be happy, but that's not how it works and they, like everyone else, inevitably suffers for it.

Causing suffering to others is bad? Wow. Thanks for this enlightening piece of advice, I hadn't thought of it before.

So much wisdom and humility in this one comment. Thank you

My dreams have brought suffering to me. I don't know how to turn it around. Or if there's time to make them come true.

The best

It can, but it doesn't have to. Perspective is everything. It's like being lost in a forest and realizing with a different vantage point you can see over the trees and get yourself on a new path, even though from where you currently are it's not entirely clear. Or, navigating a maze that's so dark you can't see the path or the walls. Every maze has only two walls, if you follow one of them with your hand, you will eventually find the exit. It's about identifying whatever information is available and making the best use of it. When your will is broken you have resigned to taking all information from that which inflicts your suffering; you have decided you are not in control. If you follow that principle, the only outcome left is death or madness.

@vampire Your sv is determined by your genes. Being noble is just a bonus on your attractiveness. It has nearly 0 effect on passing on your genes.

I turned 35 in January. Not where I wanted to or thought I’d be. Never married, No children. I suspect there’s many of us at this point thinking.. Is this it ? But here we are. Then I think… why do I have to live my life in a certain way by certain societal milestones. The only thing that brings me joy in life is helping others.. Pretty sure I couldn’t do that as a mothering housewife. So do what genuinely makes you happy.. whatever that is.

I recommend "The upside of stress" by Kelly McGonigal

When you hit 15 years of physical agony, let me know if you feel the same. My husband is suffering like Job, and it’s hard to find any upside at all…other than he is a good role model for quiet endurance. Blessings to you. (And I sincerely hope you do not suffer the same. 💚)

Exactly, it's not suffering that betters a person, rather the desire to achieve happiness. Suffering does not PROVIDE, ACHIEVE, OR PRODUCE. There is no nobility to be gained from suffering. Suffering as some noble goal is incredibly self-destructive at best and all of this rhetoric about "suffering good" is pain worship. Hard Pass on the mental gymnastics in this video and the failure of its philosophy.

Actually, as one of the other videos points out, living with meaning is what creates the joy and happiness that holds out the longest. Happiness is not a goal to achieve, it is a feeling that comes and goes.

I don't believe it to bode well when a man should act this way. Scripture teaches the man should lead in Christ (treating everyone the way you wish to be treated, even to those who wrong you), and Jordan Peterson emphasized that in nature, men are orderly and logical while women are chaotic who make decisions based on emotions. Though I do believe disciplined, experienced women make great advisors and make themselves presentable to their partners and in public just as men do too. Perhaps, be the advisor here and tell him what you would appreciate him growing into. A true test to see if he has the capabilities of being molded into a better man. My fiancée is like him and it takes me "suffering" to try and teach her the errors of her ways. Arguments arise sometimes and I have to give tough love. She does teach me with better language, settling my outbursts, giving me motivational drive, become more outspoken, and have more empathy. I fall prey to addictions as well as her but I do try to lead us and make logical decisions for our future seeing how the struggles these days are becoming harder. She has already decided without me asking to let me take financial control of our marriage. Her upbringing was sheltered, spoiled, and anxiety-induced and does have some mental diagnoses that effects her to be this way. But I love her and she and I work pretty well at building up together. I pray you two grow, beat the heavy odds of "breaking up/divorce," and succeed as well. 🙏

You may balance each other out. It could be a "match made in heaven." But be cautious about his recreational alcohol/drug intake. If he's an addict, than you two definitely have some hardships and suffering to (hopefully) confront and overcome in the future.

Coming from the username of "Daath" I suppose that is your point of view. Life is worth living while you are not suffering. You will find the unhealthy only have one wish, to get their health back.

@@paulpolymath Because they're suffering from having a body (life)! You're life is a worthless bubble and this is demonstrated by its constant insufficiency and the promise of destruction. Keep deluding yourself.

@@paulpolymath Life may be worth living when you are not suffering, but suffering is inevitable. Your bit about the unhealthy wanting their health back, what do you think that proves exactly?

Wonder what Epicurus was smoking

@@jerryharanczyk Serious wisdom.

Nietzsche could be described as a Luciferian, he tried to destroy Christianity while it was already hanging from a thread, he succeeded in alot of people's minds when he said "God is dead" and said Jesus was nothing more than a man. Atheism exploded in popularity after Nietzsche.

@@egrytznr8893 I get that, but his over all message in terms of suffering and how to deal with it is pretty spot on, of course nobody agrees on everything 💯%, we take the good stuff with much discernment.

We shine Bright... Because we came from the Dark.

Yes, it's true and this is the way the world is run today, the filth control society and it will get much worse. What to do in such an evil situation.

Preach! 👏

Exactly! Suffering subtracts from us, takes from us. Suffering does not PROVIDE, ACHIEVE, OR PRODUCE. There is no nobility to be gained from suffering. Suffering as some noble goal is incredibly self-destructive at best and all of this rhetoric about "suffering good" is pain worship.

As horrible as those scenarios are, they are simply a test of life. Nobody owns or has the ability to manipulate your emotions, except for yourself. The key is to learn to master your emotions during trying times. This can be done by first applying understanding, acceptance & forgiveness. Those that wrong you are at a different stage of their life journey. Understand that we are all different and we do wrong. Accept that you are not in control of other people's behaviour & will always be at the mercy of it. Accept that these things have happened, that they do not feel good. Accept & allow time for yourself to work through the pain. Forgive, knowing that the person who wronged you is responsible for their own karmic debts, and wish them better for their life. This is a great test of strength. We build character through trying scenarios such as these. Don't run from your hurt by adopting a victim mentality. That's simply delaying and prolonging your own suffering. Embrace it, work through your emotions and grow stronger and wiser. These are the tests of life. Life is imperfectly perfect.
