I like this topic. Lately, I've been dealing with "feeling my authentic self" and when i do...I'll then record myself for my new channel WORK HARD PLAY HARD. It's been a stretch since my last video featuring myself, but i just will not create videos unless i mean them and I'm feeling authentic in my expressions. Authenticity for me, especially these days in America (politics included) means everything to me. I turn 57 in a couple weeks...so, i guess my soul isn't putting up with any more bullshit...even from myself. LoL! Peace from Wisconsin. ✌🌱
Very deep thoughts in this video, almost poetic at times. I will listen to this a number of times to understand the depth of it. Its fascinating how we shift our thoughts, feelings and understanding of life as we age and see the broader canvas.
@@EmmyvanDeurzenIt seems that, at times at least, little children (usually under the age of 3 or so ) also have that broader, wider perspective…they can be beautifully light filled,trusting, and filled with wonder! ❤
Today’s message is one I intend to save forever. What a way to start my day. You speak right to my soul. I will cherish this particular talk for as long as I live. Thank you Emmy!
Thank you. Both subtle and comprehensive. It bought to mind George Eliot’s words in Middlemarch : ‘signs are small things but interpretations are illimitable’
From this one perspective on the world, yes this is useful Emmy. Sometimes in a spot where authentic behavior is often viewed with suspicion just hearing a rational person like yourself explain what we're trying to do helps make it feel a little less crazy.
Hi Emmy, I have a question. In the European journal of Social Science ISSN 1450-2267 Vol. 55 No 3 September, 2017, pp.262-274 titled *Implications of Friedrich Nietzsche’s Master-Slave Morality in Inter-Personal Relationship* it said that *_"Nietzsche developed strong aversion for Christianity and even referred to the traditional Christian ethics as slave morality. Slave morality, for him, is the morality for the weak. It is a place of solace for the lazy ones. In slave morality, silly ideas like equality and generosity are promulgated. This form of morality urges “virtues” like humility and pity. By so doing, it encourages people to live inauthentic life and deny obvious facts of nature. It makes a virtue out of weakness and cowardice. Thus, it prevents the strong-willed from reaching their full potentialities. Other qualities valued in slave morality include kindness, love and generosity. Nietzsche championed as master morality, the morality of the strong-willed. For the strong willed, anything considered noble, strong or powerful is good. The essence of master morality is nobility. Remarkably, Nietzsche holds that the noble man lives in trust and openness with himself"_* I don't quite get it. Why would Nietzsche be against ideas like equality, kindness, generosity, and love? Why regard them as weakness? Would it be true to say that what he is actually saying is that, in order to become masters of ourselves, we must not overvalue these virtues as end in themselves but see them as a stage of human development towards mastering a morality that goes *beyond* these virtues and not against them. I'd also like to know if you could recommend a book (perhaps one of yours) that interprets the master/slave morality in a more authentic way as best as Nietzsche intended it. There are many scholars and individuals online who talk a lot about Nietzsche's master/slave morality but surely there must be someone who knows what Nietzsche was getting at regarding his concern about the dichotomy of master/slave morality. Thanks!
How can I find the truth about me? There are so many theories in psychology, which one is true to the reality and about the self, Adler, Yalom, Frankl, Jung, etc...? How would you approach getting to know yourself? Thank you, I love your videos!
You will be amazed what others will do when you are authentic. Finally their masks will drop. In time you will laugh about how controlled by ppl, rather than God, you once were. And your heart will be so free, peace you will know.
If you are this unkind to another person, I suspect you are pretty nasty to yourself as well. Try to change that and things will improve a lot for you.
Your commentary is boorish at best. You’re displaying stunning lack of responsibility and introspection. Have some reverence for well earned and incredibly pertinent knowledge.
'Your truth is met with a myriad of different truths - which leads to a humility. 'That is beautiful.
Thank you.

Exactly: developing that broader canvas and wider perspective is one of the many privileges of ageing.

@@truemagneticnorthyes they can!

Wonderful.
As someone with serious childhood trauma and abuse from both parents, i really wish I could open. I am so closed and lonely
Find people you can trust. Join a group of like minded people. You need to learn to love and be loved.

What a lovely literary reference! Thank you.
Authenticity leads to freedom.
Thank you for your perspective, grace and beauty.
❤ long live Emmy 🎉
Inshallah.
