    Ingmar always appeared well sorted,friendly and rational infront of cameras.But through his works,books and interviews,you can tell he had an extremely sensitive and tortured even chaotic soul.He tried really hard really careful by his well organized bourgeoisie lifestyle to keep his mental health and balance.When he really need to let it out,he created the most unsettling yet powerful films we've ever seen

    Life holds many gifts for those who are highly intelligent, extremely sensitive, artistic people, especially when they can feel also every emotion in words, when words and ideas have the capacity to make them intoxicated. The difficulty is, their radar for the sublime at one end of the spectrum doesn’t negate feelings and perceptions at the other end....the gifts must be taken with the curses, and we’ve heard the list of Inmarsat Bergman’s list of his own demons. The only way to get though the darkness which _ALWAYS_ accompanies the brightest light, is to find a therapist who understands. And the other huge gift is a naturally happy or upbeat personality....at least, that’s what I have found. So, I feel for Mr. Bergman, who apparently didn’t look for the therapist and only pretended to be happy. He seemed to be self destructive in his relationships with women, as evidenced by all of his marriages and infidelities (why then, get married at all??), and he couldn’t seem to find any perspective on ways to help himself. Like most overly sensitive people, he just appeared to move at a frenetic pace to keep his particular demons quiet, but this only makes them stronger and more aggravating-they thrive in the dark corners of our minds. Something as inane as being annoyed at a bird finding a way in the house became an enormous fear, an obsessive terror. *_The deal is, you can run from your anxieties, but you can’t hide!_* I find it very sad that he didn’t find any peace, and that he didn’t figure this out: When you force a huge anxiety into the light and scream, exposing it to the light of day and putting it back into proportion, it initially feels like you’re going to free fall from the height of a very tall cliff, only to find you’ve just stepped off of a low kerb. Very embarrassing. Of course, the biggest consolation for these people is that, though most are not famous, they will never be mediocre.

    The 'demon of nothingness' is in fact an angel or even God. He says he's glad not to know it but how can you be glad of not having something you don't know [although he's true to his never ending imagination and so, he can only imagine what 'nothingness' is like]. It is from nothingness that imagination and ideas arise but what is born in time, must vanish in time and only nothingness remains, as somethingness solid like a mountain, so full of peace, and stillness, to the brim. Nothingness is that, which if experienced, kills all the demons.

    • @chadpilled7913
      @chadpilled7913 4 місяці тому

      Wrong. God is not nothingness. God is the fount of being Who pre-existed all creation. It is not from nothingness that anything arises. That is impossible being cannot come from non-being. God is eternal. There was never a time God did not exist.
      Nothingness, in fact as the name implies, also does not exist. It is a figment of the imagination. It is a mental placeholder, but it does not exist in any ontological sense.

Nothingness is not the opposite of somethingness, which is a transitory notion anyway; nothingness is not not-being but being, that exists in eternity as God.
