    We should learn about the interplay and the difference between being in itself (en soi) and being for itself (pour soi). ‘Nothingness’ can be lowered by minimizing the gap between our internal world (consciousness) and the external world. However, do not miss out the ‘being for others.’ Who Rules the Waves?

    • @dailywisdomquotesJB
      @dailywisdomquotesJB 11 годин тому

      Thank you for sharing these insights! Indeed, Sartre’s distinction between ‘being-in-itself’ (en soi) and ‘being-for-itself’ (pour soi) is central to understanding how consciousness introduces freedom and possibility beyond mere existence. Minimizing the gap between our inner world and the external one could indeed lessen that sense of ‘nothingness.’ And you’re absolutely right: ‘being-for-others’ adds another layer of complexity, showing how our identity and choices are shaped by the social context. As for ‘Who Rules the Waves?’-perhaps it’s a reminder that while we strive for authenticity within ourselves, we also navigate a world influenced by others’ perspectives. What’s your take on this?

    Estranging the indigenous inhabitants with a foreign language/culture is an imperialist strategy to morph entire regions, in order to subject them to the USA/collective West, via the people who live there. Search for "cultural capture." The youth are especially susceptable to cultural capture, due to the urge to be "rebelious", to "shock" their elders, or to be "cool" by imitating the outside heroes they see on TV, in movies or whose songs they sing. Could you do a segment on how divide-and-rule works in politics and IR? It sets up average people against each other, by concentrating the "divides" created by petty problems, often using the MSM the mega-rich own, so these instigators can "run off with all the money" and can perpetually "keep on going to the bank" (George Carlin quotes about divide-and-rule as preconceived and WANTED strategy). Life is good for these few, and their chosen ones, while everybody is distracted by squibbing and fighting... The divides are global, systemic, in every human being, between systems, are perpetual, and are perpetually exploited.

    “No rose without a thorn, but many a thorn without a rose.” And: "Only the light that one lights within oneself later shines for others as well." ~Schopenhauer. In the *physical* spectrum, it is the financial system that is the visiable facet of Maya. Money is not evil per sé, but our financial system with the all consuming caveat of "interest" or "usery" makes *most* people slaves. It prevents (virtually everyone) from reaching their potential, and often only fools from realising theirs. Each and every one of us has the seed of genius, but most seed falls on baron ground and so it never has the chance to manifest itself. The central "lie" of the financial system though, metastasizes like a cancer. Therefore "realising your potential" is (virtually) a miracle.

    • @dailywisdomquotesJB
      @dailywisdomquotesJB 9 днів тому

      Thank you for sharing such a profound reflection! 🙏 The way you connect Schopenhauer’s ideas to the financial system is truly insightful. The concept of ‘interest’ as a force that entraps rather than liberates is a powerful analogy. It’s fascinating how the Veil of Maya can be seen not only as a metaphysical illusion but also as a very tangible societal construct. Your point about human potential being stifled resonates deeply. Schopenhauer believed that only through the negation of the will could we glimpse true freedom - and perhaps, in a way, our current financial system keeps us trapped in an endless cycle of ‘willing.’ The idea that ‘each of us has the seed of genius’ but most seeds fall on barren ground is both poetic and tragic. It raises a crucial question: how can we, as individuals, nurture the ground to allow that seed to grow? I’d love to hear your thoughts on how we can escape this cycle and cultivate our inner potential despite these systemic obstacles.

    Thought is the creator and perpetrator of delusion and fantasy. Truth can never be known intellectually. Enlightenment is the banishment of thought and direct apprehension of reality through feeling.

    • @dailywisdomquotesJB
      @dailywisdomquotesJB 9 днів тому

      Thank you for your comment! 🙏 The point you raise is truly interesting. Schopenhauer would likely agree that rational thought, tied to the principle of sufficient reason, contributes to the illusion. Your reflection on enlightenment as the ‘banishment of thought’ reminds me of Eastern traditions like Buddhism. In fact, Schopenhauer himself acknowledged the influence of Eastern philosophy on his work. The idea of ‘feeling’ reality is fascinating and could indeed be a key to ‘lifting the Veil of Maya.’ I’d love to hear more about your perspective. How do you think we can cultivate this way of ‘feeling’ in everyday life?

    • @Elephant334
      @Elephant334 16 годин тому

      then as we created machines to enhance the impression of feeling unto a neutral medium, did that enhance maya or ?

    • @dailywisdomquotesJB
      @dailywisdomquotesJB 11 годин тому

      Thank you for your comment! That's an excellent observation. The creation of machines that amplify sensations can indeed be seen as a way to enhance the illusion of Maya, as these technologies can alter our perception of reality. However, it could also be interpreted as an opportunity to better understand Maya itself, prompting us to reflect on what is real and what is illusory. What are your thoughts?

What happened then?🤔?..What make each plant and tree different from each other if they were all receiving the same types of O2, watering, same soils, same fertilizer and staying in the same climate conditions..The same concepts applying to ALL LIVING BEINGS and Homo Sapients AREN'T EXCLUDED..PERIOD..

      Thank you for sharing such an insightful reflection!

I appreciate you highlighting this perspective-it truly deepens the conversation on Krishnamurti’s teachings.
