The 5th great error: Not being subscribed to essentialsalts.

Wait, Jung was the reason for Nietzsche's mental illness?

Brilliant! Reason = Virtue = happiness. The weirdest equation ever!

Against mediators: just as I will never fully understand Nietzsche by taking the word of Nietzsche podcasters as a full understanding, I will never understand my own life fully merely by reaching for Nietzsche to understand my own life situation. It’s interesting to think about the parallels between Nietzsche’s “confusion of causes with consequences” and Buddhism’s “dependent arising”. Before Nietzsche, I would read Buddhist texts like Nargajuna’s “garland of ratnavali” in which he says “high status precedes definite goodness” and Ikkyu’s poem in which he gets into sexuality. “Everyone can touch Buddha, but so few can touch the devil.” Big ups to essentialsalts as always, wish I still had so much time to sit around and contemplate with him.

Wow i'm only a few minutes in and i'm already commenting. Powerful.

sell that merch, mothaf*cka!!... Nietzsche would be soooooooo proud of your self-promoting Dionysian rage!!

There is nothing profound about dualism and or trashing your ancestors in pursuit of liberal progress.. Dont be scared of the dark lest you become blind to one half of reality

I love to point to a Japanese Zen monk come Nietzschean(sp?) - He used the Japanese characters that mean Basho - place - the warrior ready for battle at the place of battle - Present, place to Jung - That we may react to our reality rather than ressentiment: a reaction to the present that is rooted in the past...ParaRealismo? Paralétheia?

Will to power was so depressing to hear about.

So does he want us to become slaves to be free? sign me up!

What is your name? (your voice sounds like Scott, the NewAge guy).

I think Nietzsche and Jung are both right about Christ. Nietzsche is just describing the negative version, which, in Jungiana terms, is when the ego appropriates the Christ archetype. This involves unconscious projections of the archetype, inflation, and results in victimhood olympics, in which the one that can claim to be the most victimized wins. There is an immense power in victimhood. In that sense, much of modern political correctness found in atheistic sectors can even be seen, ironically, as an extension of Christianity at it's worst.

Made the analysis playlist ✅ I’ve been saying the absolute power quote for years and needed to hear this. Cuz honestly, nature favors the powerful. It just does.

Science has kinda brought us full circle regarding determinism, fate, causality and chaos. The weird truth is that truth gets to be malleable at some levels. He who observes first gets the worm. God? Why not? Let’s make him!

Hey essentialsalts. I am sure youll find this interesting: This is a video on Nietzsche and here this Dr. Says that in twilight of the idols, Nietzsche doesn't believe in will to power? Love to hear your thoughts. Its a well made argument - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5mDgZOC0cnMomw.htmlsi=sAz1gtXMMvBK4ZUM

Doesn’t the disagreement between Rand and Nietzsche really just come down to freewill vs determinism?

Nietzsche: Anti individualism individualist non collectivist collectivist

Whoa… how the hell are you doing this? Your talks are better than most professors. You seem to be doing a an “Alan Watts” or a “Dan Carlin” move here, like you know exactly what you want to say seemingly without any notes or practice in a classroom. I’ll stop gushing here but with two requests; 1) Can you spend some time on Heidegger? I think you can nail it. 2) Can you mention anywhere something about your method for putting these talks together !! I’m interested in your process as a communicator. Thanks. 🙏

It seems to be an unsurprising occurrence, that a vast majority of notable philosophers (Yes, It’s a generalisation) …… including Jung and Nietzsche were reared by religious zealots. Following, it’s uncomfortable to draw certain conclusions, at least when this fact becomes apparent. Were, all these great philosophers just suffering from a festering narcissistic lesion, inflicted by their parents ? A gaping infected wound that oozed delusion, throughout their lives and led them undoubtedly to torment and left them bereft of the capacity to lead a spontaneous life, paralysed by a warped reason. Or, maybe these words could just be another projection ? Look over there at the Emperor….Yes, that’s right. The emperor has no clothes !

I would be interested in more detailed explanation of what you mean by the “outdatedness” of socioeconomic-political theories such as capitalism and socialism. As an individualist, I have always gravitated toward libertarian and “right-wing anarchist” theory, and in libertarian circles “capitalism” just means any system based on private property, the subjective theory of value, and free exchange of goods. If I may be permitted to oversimplify to a degree, I believe I can approximately describe socialism as the opposite: a system based on public property, an objective theory of value, and a regulated market. Of course, I am aware that no country falls perfectly into either category today, but I think most imaginable political systems can be accurately described a some blend of the two. This is also why I think it’s inaccurate to refer to the neoliberal corporate order as “capitalism” because it’s all dependent on a strong government, and it bears more resemblance to fascism than “pure” capitalism (fascism being the marriage of corporation and state, Mussolini was a syndicalist, etc.). Sure, having read Nietzsche and Stirner, I’m aware that from a descriptive perspective “might makes right,” morality is fake, and so on and so forth. But from another, more creatively Nietzschean perspective, we do live in a society and generally want to agree upon some method of establishing a social hierarchy and guaranteeing order. With all that in mind, I personally find anarcho-capitalism to be the most appealing system. I particularly like the work of Hans-Hermann Hoppe. If you are unfamiliar, he’s really pushed the envelope on purging libertarian theory of some of its more modern, democratic/progressive sympathies. Most regard “Democracy: The God That Failed” as his magnum opus, but I’d highly recommend the much shorter “From Aristocracy to Monarchy to Democracy: A Tale of Moral and Economic Folly and Decay” as an introduction. Obviously, he’s a theorist and systematizer, but I don’t think he ever makes any pretenses of approaching some sort of utopia where everyone lives in perfect harmony (there is also some historical, empirical precedent for similar systems: Irish Brehon law, the Icelandic Commonwealth, the Frisian Freedom, and the Sardinian Judicates are interesting examples of societies that don’t fit the modern stereotypes of medieval states). I can also see some Nietzschean arguments for a sort of natural order “anarchy” (the semantics here get frustratingly convoluted; I do agree with Nietzsche’s critique of what he referred to as “anarchism,” but I like to say that anarchy means a lack of rulers but not necessarily a lack of hierarchy, leaders, or order) from his denouncement of the state in TSZ, some of GM part 2 (particularly §10), and The Joyful Science §321.

I think I'm the same way in thinking the worst case. I have to argue with you about what kinds of live music will disappear. Live Metal Shows is something I'm willing to pay for. The main point if I can stay on track to get there is paying for an experience rather than a material thing goes a lot farther than when it's a material object. I feel consumers are more about the experience. They pay more for it. For this fact, I could never live without live music. Canned music may work for some areas that are in music but not everything. I go to a lot of shows. I love the sweat. We go there to relieve stress. We dance and mosh for this reason. I get angry dealing with terrible people. Eventually, I'm going to need a show. Artists do have it hard. It's hard to get to a point to make money. I cannot deny that. So it's understandable why you think about the worst possible scenarios. Also, metal shows are so affordable compared to a lot of things. I never pay under $25 to see a band. I'm a bit extreme with the merch. This is because I know 100% is going to the band. I would pay $25 any day over sitting at Texas Roadkill (roadhouse) to have fun with strangers. It makes Uber less expensive if more people show up so we can split the fare too in bigger cities. IDK I love the disgusting parts of seeing a show. It has a certain smell and feel I really enjoy.

the great Pandemic is dead ☝

Yeah I think quantum physics and relativity completely debunked Nietzsche and Freud. Jung used Freud's dream analysis method to point to the scientific discovery that was about to emerge.

And yet both men passed and lived (as all of us still do) with lots of internal anguish that never healed, but the concept of God existentially, emotionally and psychologically in my opinion has only expanded and strengthened. One just needs to look at the beauty of our world, the elegance of nature, the good things as well as the negative and even for example, the latest discoveries of the JWST telescope and one understands immediately that God didn't die. It is not a concept that belongs to one religion or creed, God is everything and everywhere. And I say this with total certainty while not being a religious person at all. Thanks for sharing this.

Girard is correct in that all of humanity is guilty of this collective violence... necessary violence... Christianity refuses to do what is necessary... it denies reality.... that's the problem.

HNIC

I believe Nietzsche did understand how deeply "God" or the psychological necessity of a god is inseparable from the psyche or subconscious. ''God is dead: but as the human race is constituted, there will perhaps be caves for millenniums yet, in which people will show his shadow. - And we - we have still to overcome his shadow!'' - Froliche Wissenschaft. Jung picked up the ball and ran with it, but the concept was not unique to his phsychology.

only a fool would ask nietzsche about the meaning of life...

Essential Viewing. ( The Mystery Lecturer Rides Again !!! ) 👍🤔 ( "Green Fire", geoff nelson hill, any bookshop UK / US ) 🌈🦉

Jung said... He doesn't believe in God, He knows... Extremely compelling.

Can't wait for my copy to arrive! Big up, man, you're better than any university lecturer I've had.

Please just get to the point

Jung acknowledged, even admired, Nietzsche's brilliance but remained profoundly sceptical regarding his atheism. Nonetheless, Nietzsche's furious writings have since become handbooks for Dictators of both Left and Right around the world. 👺 🤔("Green Fire", geoff nelson hill, bookshops UK / US )🌈🦉

I agree! Debate is cringe.
