Mr. Greene, your books have deeply influenced me, made me crush doubt and travel way beyond what i thought were my limits. At 30 years of age when I first read Mastery I realised the the pursuit of mastery was my true calling in this life and because of that I experience the sublime in multiple ways. It made me learn new skills, become better with people, start and maintain vipassana meditation, re-kindle my love for martial arts and start jiu jitsu at age 34, come back to my childhood passion of drawing, let go of many unhealthy thought patterns and teach some of what I learned to others. I am immensly grateful for your input in my life Sir, and I bow to your sublime nature in reverance.
I can relate! Robert's teachings are truly enlightening and profound. It's so great to hear you doing what you actually love and living the best life you can!
I need this book now, I can’t wait. Robert you are so timely and connected and I am just so grateful for you existing and so happy you are alive to share your gifts
@@Chris-gm4hk part of my point is that watching or reading self-help books is a form of false sublime and perhaps indicates a form of content addiction. incidentally, I was eating pizza and energy drinks. the comment I made was an attempt to rehabilitate the moment from false sublime to true sublime by being transgressive. having explained it to you, though, I have now reverted back to the false sublime. forgive me.
You are one of my favorite authors of all time. And I enjoy reading your books as much as I like to read Nietzsche, Kant, Machiavelli, Camus, Seneca, Jung or Goethe 🙂
I miss this feeling of the sublime, I'm beginning to understand, now it makes sense why the addictions I seek simulate the feelings I had when I was a child and I was filled with wonder.
I think The Law of the Sublime will be the crowning work to your previous legendary books, Robert! Your writings are truly a gift to humanity, I'm so excited to read this one, it kind of feels like it will have a more transcendental feeling to it.
I believe that even near death experiences can give you a sense of the false sublime and get you addicted. It's very common for folks to get addicted to near death experiences and put themselves in that position over and over again through risky behaviours and sports.
I have a feeling I’m going to love this new book. It sounds wonderful!! Also you were amazing at your Seattle event! Please consider doing more live events!!!!
@Excogitationn really engaging, they kept the pace great throughout and played off each other well. Talked a lot about the ideas of life's task, their journeys to becoming authors and how philosophy deals with issues like death, success, failure, and so on. Answered some audience questions at the end
I am very happy and happy to hear your shared videos. It helps me a lot in life. You are the most inspiring person I have ever met. Thank you for sharing.
I can’t wait until this book comes out. Robert Greene is like king Solomon I think, delving into all sorts of weird and wonderful ideas and sharing it with the world for its betterment. Good stuff ❤
Being diagnosed with a severe condition that brought the reality of death into my life turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It stopped me from wasting time.
Mr Greene, the way you describe the sublime reminds me of Carl Jung's integration of the shadow, or initiation as some esoteric teachings put it. In them, as if almost from another dimension, an explosion of connections happens in the individual that makes him perceive things in a very unique way about the world and his role in it, just as some masters in their fields create things that are very difficult to imagine and experience a constant new kind of nirvana. And just by reading your books and letting myself be transformed by your teachings and experiences makes me adopt you as my teacher. Thank you
This reminds me of the idea presented by the 28th gene key Totality. "When you meet life through the Gift of Totality, you meet life as a game to be played or a stage on which to act. This is life lived as a romance - a romance that includes both comedy and tragedy. There is a deep sense of thrill that comes as you progressively face your inner demons. Your demons, as we have learned, are really your angels in disguise. Every situation in your life is devised as a form of initiation that allows you either to remain as you are or to evolve." "People aligned with the 28th Gift have the wonderful knack of handling adversity lightly. The more deeply they accept each feeling of fear that comes the lighter they grow and the more love they feel towards life."
My twin brother just passed away. I am now looking for experiences to appreciate being alive. I now stay away from unhealthy TIME WASTING activities. Being with family and friends takes away missing my brother. I do things to take away the 5 stages of grief to fully appreciate living for the very short time we get on this amazing planet. What fills your cup? What makes you feel alive? How did we evolve to the stages of grief and how can we reverse engineer that grief to have the sublime experiences that we desire?
False sublime feels like You are hungry, so you go to a restaurant where unlimited free food is served. As you eat, you realize that while your stomach is getting full and the food tastes incredible, your hunger remains unfulfilled.
Thank you Robert. Some variations with my intentionalities and I hear and Thank You so much for framing so much of life's bigger feeling pictures! Groundbreaking.
Real sublime changes you from inside out, once you feel it it changes you forever, false sublime like alcohol and drugs make you addicted and want to have more and more of them, makes you lose yourself into something that's not positive, rather addictive. Glad to hear he's already working on a book, hope he takes care of himself whilst working hard ❤
I have been following your journey on writing The Law of the Sublime since you posted your first research books on Instagram, years back. Your concept of the Sublime is so immensely fascinating! I feel this book is going to open a lot of new doorways for people. I can't wait for the book to come out, but please take all the time you need to bring it into the world in a beautiful manner. I hope you are going to play around with the format of the book (like the side-text in 48 Laws of Power and Seduction), since you said it will be a really weird book :)
Robert Greene, I can't wait for your new book to come out "The Sublime" am a great fun of your books because after reading them you see the world differently and it also improves our daily life skills "Tada yori takai mono wa nai," Japanese saying ...🙏
insanity is a sublime experience. insanity isn't a permanent state, it's a tool to be used as and when required. when used well , it opens new creativity
Take care Robert, you are a good and wise man we need to awaken us to certain realities. Here is one for you Robert, after 10 years, and well over 24,000 hours I have proved something terrifying. Since the 1200s in England, virtually every important historic event in GB, and the US have been timed to the Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and Celtic calendars. Gods and Goddesses Robert, with an emphasis on etymology, and the Etruscan Discipline as the backdrop for an amazing degree of DC, Banking, and assassinations. To say it is disturbing is an understatement, but knowing your love of history I thought it best to let you know. PS, the debt market is about to go nuclear.
is "the sublime" the same as "flow state" or inspiration? I think I know what "the sublime" means... it must be experiencing a very high vibration, at least for a short time.
I get a bit frustrated hearing how long the book is going to take especially after all the little snippets Robert has been dropping about it since the daily laws dropped...2 years is a long time to wait but I now feel that to truly understand the book, there are certain experiences that I need to go through first to truly appreciate the law of the sublime/towards the sublime. The first time I read 48 laws, it didn't have as big an impact. It was entertaining sure, but I was too young to understand the message it was really trying to say at the time due to my limited life experiences. I feel the same for this new book. If it were to come out next month I wouldn't be ready to truly appreciate it.
This idea reminds me of the concept of Maya, or "illusion", as it is known in Vedanta. I understand it to represent those illusions of belief which further divide the self over time, causing one to turn away from truth and towards ignorance.
I have been struggling all my life to have a purpose or a goal. I do many things that as a by product others see and say “wow, I wish I could do that” or whatever. But it’s all just a little bit of discipline, but in my real life I’m very angry. Overall I have to get it together or I’m not playing this game at the end of this year.
I remember a conversation I had with my Uber driver one night. We were talking about addictions, I told him my struggles with addiction, and he told me about how his devout Muslim family helped him stop drinking. They locked him in the basement apartment for a whole month. He also told me something that will stay with me for as long as I live.. “As long as you continue to live under the grip of addiction, you will NEVER get to experience the true beauty of life.”
It would be incredible to see you accept God as the source of all that is Sublime. I feel like you're on the doorstep, but don't really see it as a genuine option. This is the ultimate transgression in a world that preaches hedonism and narcissism. To hand yourself over to or accept the supremacy of God over everything else.

Yes! Agree with everything you said

alcohol or drugs.... or pizza or energy drinks or youtube videos like this one. I truly am living my best life

Me too
there's just so much to unpack here. idk how Robert managed to cram this all into 6 minutes, I'd bet he could go on for days
Your book Mastery is my guiding mentor. Thank you.
Sounds similar to the state that peterson refers to as between order and chaos, or the flow state. Looking forward to the book, Robert 📙👍🏼
Thank you Robert for your support. Love from Iran. 🤟🥰
His comment on death remninds me of a quote: "So teach us to number our days,
That we may gain a heart of wisdom." ~ Psalm 90:12
Thank you Robert.
Some variations with my intentionalities and I hear and Thank You so much for framing so much of life's bigger feeling pictures!
Groundbreaking.
Very cool to gain insights into the new book. I love reading the December pages in the Daily Laws about the Sublime. Thank you, Robert.
I’ve never been so excited for a book to come out. Good lord.
Loved this preview - this is a topic that touches so deeply... Thank you so much for this truly sublime work, Robert!

I Hope to Grab & Read your new book Sublime📕 someday Master Robert. Till then keep doing what you’re doing.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing Robert.
this was so enlightening
Related to nirvana..Euphoric immersion in one's relationship with one's environment and existence itself.
insanity is a sublime experience. insanity isn't a permanent state, it's a tool to be used as and when required. when used well , it opens new creativity
That's why bipolar manics are overrepresented in Hollywood, the arts and business startups
So smart thank you
I'm very much looking forward to that book ❤
Yes thats a law it so amazing, I only get to realise it when I listen to you. why we dont able to observ and understand such law on our own.
Thank you, Robert.
Can't wait .no this will be a deep project
Thankful to be born in a time where you are alive
Looking forward to the book!
When does the Sublime book get released? *Looking forward to it :)
Wooww ya quiero el libro❤❤
Your right Robert. Its time to have my true zenith. Sublime.
Thank you for the video and thank you for mentioning what's going on in Iran.
