This is one of clearest and also fairest accounts of Nietzsche’s Will to Power. This concept is often demonized and misunderstood as some form of psychological or social Darwinism that exalts the strong and powerful over the weak. But as you explained the term “power” is actually very general and ambiguous and has a view to psychological power to overcome one’s own self. To Become one’s true self. Comparable even to self-realization or Jung’s individuation or Maslow’s self-actualization. It’s a very ingenious and comprehensive concept actually that shows the genius of Nietzsche. The Will to Power is the drive to continue to grow and better oneself which in turn will create growth in society.
Is it me, or this guy was indeed brilliant? It’s just fascinating the rareties he is after. The level of curiosity. Most of which we do not even perceive.
The fact he didn't even want to publish anything relating to the will to power because it went against his philosophy of perspectivism is shocking. Even his bad ideas are great!
Here we (pen, paper, fellow learners) are again, learning essential concepts from a magnificent channel! Thank you for making this inquisition, into the structure and mystery of life, slightly easier and drastically more entertaining!
Summarizing this lecture I think the Will to Power is such a capacity that we all possess in order to generate a balance between our best and the environment we interact with. It's not the typical attitude to do anything that we want, but rather how we can perfect our current situation by emerging the best of ourselves in service to others. Ultimately, the Will to Power strives for creation as well as innovation, not for dominance nor entitlement. Just like a tree exists to provide fruits, shelter, and can be used for many manufacturing purposes such as making tables, chairs, coffins, dressers, beds, and suchlike; so our Will to Power gives us the capacity to provide the right tools to transform our reality into something greater as well as to share such a greatness to others by encouraging so. To do this requires that we remain 100% positive, and always keep in mind that there's such a way to get through something as well as to make it better than it currently is.
"indeed, the one who shot at truth with the words 'will to existanse' did not hit it: this will - does not exist! For, what is not can not will; but what is existence, how could this still will to exist! Only where life is, is there also will, but not will to life, instead - thus I teach you - will to power This is brilliant
Power is indeed part of our Will, but essentially I agree with Frankl´s "Will to Meaning" Being powerless can be meaningful, but meaningless is not powerful.
WILL to power is a never ending pursuit of "will to power". In this journey of taking power it's inevitable for us to face sadness, sorrow, depression and even nihilism. If we overcome all that and again embrace the WILL to power it's a never ending cycle of embracing sorrow along with it. I'm a Buddhist from Sri Lanka. According to my religion will to power will always put yourself in the middle of this never ending cycle of happiness-sorrow-happiness-greed-sorrow-resentment etc etc. If you are totally OK with this method of living you can embrace martial stoicism and continue to gain power by learning lessons in the way and minimizing sadness and sorrows along with that. BUT if you really want to shut everything down and enter into the ultimate bliss you have to do a whole lot more than that. You need to shut down all your sensory faculties and meditate, essentially focus your mind on one single little tiny minute minuscule thing, then shut down your mind also pertaining to this physical world. After that you continue to live but your mind doesn't wonder beyond that one single tiny point. Therefore after you die there will be no rebirth because your mind/soul cease to exist.
Buddhism is contradictory to the will to power. Buddhists believe in minimizing suffering and sadness while the will to power is about maximizing power to live the most rich life possible. If you're going to disagree in your philosophy at least be succinct about it
Just as ascetics/buddhists are suspicious of all instinctual feelings and thoughts, it is weird to me that they still see pain and suffering as something that should be avoided. This is based on an instinctual feeling and no real reason
Yea i know how it feels And In my dreams where i was a spectator and i didnt know why the f i was even there Im more the person in charge I had One time i knew i was dreaming but still was in the dream woke up but went to sleep again to the same dream before like turning the TV on and going back to the same channel right back again Like nothing happened Usually when i wake up i cant go back or the dream is corrupted its just me thinking not the dream But i came back I think it happened due to One day before i wanted a sign i wanted to grow tall Só One day later yatta yatta Guess what happened dream sh it and that business right up the alley left Turn Then i get out of bed and for no reason i went to Touch the Bible because i felt like it and i wanted to go to a random page Mind you i just Gave up on getting it and was thinking about nothing just going on my day Then it was on a page of the Bible on some One interpreting dreams The pharaoh's dreams He had the same particular situation as me he was in a dream then woke up to go to a some what similar dream It was about a 7 cows 7 healthy at that being eaten by 7 malnourished ones then the other is 7 healthy wheat plantations being done the same as the 7 healthy cows The dream was interpreted as this that for 7 years you Will have prosperity and dwindle in resources but for the other you Will Only have nothing but famine And i think its a sign that i Will grow tall
But some people do suffer “meaninglessly”, like children in poor countries with painful illnesses and not all effort bears fruit. Meanwhile, some people do get “lucky”, like being born in the right family or winning lottery. Not all pain bring happiness.
People who win the lottery or are born into wealthy families are often some of the most depressed people. Your assumption that having money = happiness is easily disprovable.

Thank you this is excellent. Great work cutting across the key works, I have just had them all out highlighting and making notes on your succinct interpretation. Thank you.
Its interesting to note in regards to schaupenhauer (srry for spelling) for the will to live it was necessary to exist in essence by avoiding suffering, and the contrast to the will to power where suffering is completely necessary and even calculated but yet nietzche died in a state of complete madness. Im not sure how the former passed or if he even lived by his own ideals, but my point is i can see where the pursuit of righteous suffering can have some profound consequences on the mind
Great Explanation! Love the in depth analysis! Just tried to sum it up under 60 seconds today on my channel, but boi was that a task! Nietzsche is too briliiatnt to fit in just one minute. Great video man!
Understanding the Will to the Power is Power over one's self not over others Power of Mind over Matter. of using mind to create matter The Power of chouce of deliberate creation Overcoming all that has come before been taught before ... To BECOMING creating your own system from within one's self That's true POWER Thats what Makes the uberman !
Uh, maybe? It's a major deal in regards to basically reading Nietzsche as a character, but I personally recommend Beyond Good and Evil, or as said in the video Will to Power. But if you have what I must call drive, then Beyond Good and Evil is one of the best.
In the Latin word malus [bad] (which I place alongside melas [black]) the common man could be designated as the dark-coloured, above all as the dark-haired ("hic niger est" [this man is black]), as the pre-Aryan inhabitant of Italian soil, who stood out from those who became dominant, the blonds, that is, the conquering race of Aryans, most clearly through this colour. At any rate, the Gaelic race offers me an exactly corresponding example. The word fin (for example, in the name Fin-Gal), the term designating nobility and finally the good, noble, and pure, originally referred to the blond-headed man in contrast to the dusky, dark-haired original inhabitants. -Genealogy of Morality, Nietzsche Essay 1, aphorism 5.
You have to have a basic understanding of Schopenhauer’s ‘will’ to get the contextual framework for Nietzsche ‘will to power’. I see this as Nietzsche’s epistemological starting point in which his philosophy is a continuation of. Taken in isolation to modern ears Nietzsche sounds a lot different to what he intended.
Neitzche gave birth to the higher human, the bridge between the great ape and something higher, that something higher is the Hyperian, the higher human, the over human, our new systems of philosophy and ontological mathematics will shock and awe you. Our systems have been in development since the first philosopher came on the scene, by Pythagoras and his secret school of thought that still exists today, it is through our system alone that the true nature of reality is revealed, and completely shunned by the religious, and the materialists, we have proven that reality is not material, this is also proven by quantum physics, reality is mind, it is thought, it is light, it is mathematical, humanity has lost touch with it's spirituality, most of us anyway, we are bringing it back and it will never be forgotten again, come join us and our fight to transform and change the world and ourselves as a collective!
You don't will to survive, your body demands it. So will must be more than the ability to acquire necessities. But you know what I always called will... naivety. The old joke... "How do you make God laugh? Tell him your plans!" I'm afraid Yoda was wrong. There is no do or do not, there is only try. You can only try even when you don't know, ignorant of the outcome always. Your try is your meaning, while your naivety lasts.
The truth can be scary. The truth is the Will to Power is real. If you're observant and objective (and yes, I understand 100% objectivity is rare if not impossible), I don't know how you can possibly think otherwise. The evidence is everywhere... it explains everything from behavior in the workplace to global wars. I am glad I got into Nietzsche is my early 20s (I'm almost 40 now). Prior to reading his works, I had been a Christian but had lost faith in Christianity after reading about some of the atrocities and contradictions in the Bible. I followed Enlightenment morality for a while (still believe in it to an extent) and we can thank it for a lot. But we need a new morality for this modern world. The modern world makes no sense in a lot of ways. People follow Christianity and other Abrahamic faiths, yet we live in an age of materialism and consumerism. It seems to be an age of Nihilism. What are we trying to accomplish? What are our true goals and ambitions? Christianity tells you not to enjoy life's pleasure and to prepare for the next world. It is good in that it promotes the growth of character to an extent, but characteristics like discipline and integrity are only part of a strong person's personality. It does not promote making the most of one's talents or abilities. Doing so is essential to truly living life to the fullest. Instead, it preaches modesty and humbling oneself before God. If God does not exist, why should you humble yourself before Him? Make yourself the God of your world. Belief in reason and science makes people inclined to suppress their urges in certain instances and to behave in a socially-acceptable manner (treat women with respect, don't be a brute, use your brain instead of your muscles to solve problems), but what is the goal of life for a person who believes in no gods, no afterlife and nothing transcendent? Then there are the materialistic masses who are content with watching television and listening to music and playing on their phones all day. Sure, they have desires. They want money. They want nice cars and fancy things. But they are very shallow, and because such a way of living is very unnatural (what animals care about accumulating material possessions?), they are destined to remain unfulfilled even if they acquire vast wealth and a great collection of material items. We need power and an understanding of power. Power is good. Power is natural. Power gives you purpose and makes you feel fulfilled. But the word scares people. They think of things like forcing others into slavery, sexual abuse, physical might etc. But true power is simply self-realization. It is developing and maximizing one's capabilities to the fullest. It's the capacity to make yourself the master of your world and destiny, which requires creating and adhering to strong morals. Certain Christian and Enlightenment morals are a good starting place, but a true Superman can bend morality in accordance with his needs and desires. In particular instances, it may be necessary to use force whereas in others kindness may be preferable. Hopefully philosophy is not dead and a relic of the past. I believe the next great breakthrough in philosophy will be based on a synthesis of Nietzsche's theory of the Will to Power and his outlook on life in general with a proper understanding of Evolution and a revised theory of Evolution. Evolution is a thing, but it doesn't quite work the way Darwin thought. It's not driven entirely by random mutations and natural selection. There is something either intrinsic to the process or something transcendent guiding and driving it. I do not believe this force to be God or something else divine. It is more like the Will to Power itself (maybe a manifestation or form of it), but it seems to be more of an organizing sort of force. Perhaps life is the duality of the Will to Power (the desire to grow, expand, dominate, flourish etc) and the Striving for Mastery (the impulse to impose structure, to adapt to one's surroundings successfully and to set required restrictions and limits - perhaps manifesting itself in human reason) and the Superman is the one who can achieve the ideal balance between both forces, creating a world for himself in which he grows, flourishes and lives life to the fullest while operating within a moral framework that adheres to the principles of the utmost discipline and self-mastery of his drives, desires and impulses.
I just wish Niesche hadn't gone nuts in the end, it'd be more believable everything he believed. Even Paul the apostle had said, too much study and the focus on self intellects is harmful and brings many unnecessary afflictions to his heart mind, and soul (the self). This was thousands of years before Niesche.
Power is given. If one gains power, it is because they have been given the right set of circumstances either inwardly or outwardly, and seeing that the self by itself is ephemeral and destined to die, power which can be taken away is merely an illusion of power. Therefore, only one true power exists... that which has the power to create existence itself. That which has the power to create power itself, and thus to bestow it. All other powers are subservient and conditional to the first power. Do not seek power. Seek true wisdom... even at risk of your own humiliation, defeat, and even unto death. Although I know of no one including myself who has the ability to do it willingly. It is abhorrent to us and we hate it. Seek first to be sought, not to know but to be known. Ask and ye shall receive. Just remember... you asked for the Truth. You can't handle it. Pray to be saved from this terrible burden because by oneself, it will either kill you or it will become you... the terrible knowledge.
What I find the funniest about Fredric's work, If you actually read his philosophy you will realize that he was wrong, or in some way misinformed about. For instance, He disagrees with the stoics only because he didn't realize he actually agreed with them. Or his attribution to Darwin on self preservation, But also. He's the most misunderstood philosopher himself. Such as people attributing nihilism as a physical thing to him creating it, Or him personally believing in absolute worthlessness.

Let the youthful soul look back on life with the question: What have I truly love up to now ? What have elevate my soul And at das same time Master it ? Then place these venerated objects in a row..

i dsagree it isnt systematized. he wrote, "all is will to power." that's the system. every drive seeks to work (will) to expand its capacity to do work (physics definition of power)
The 16th to 19th century Canadian pastoralist movement, the common horse. Peter Gast, let Friedrich Nietzsche know what had destroyed Europe and Russa. So Nietzsche penned this, a list of notes, on what Canada wanted.
But you failed to present Nietzsche's own phililogical exegesis of the 'will to power' as a text. The 'will to power' owes its name to the political order. Only through the pathos of distance afforded to indivudals by castes and classes was the sense of a pathos of distance possible within the exhalted subject. If you haven't read Sarah Kofman's Nietzsche and Metaphor, it is absolutely fundamental in understanding the 'will to power'.
Could you link another video that explains Nietzsche’s ‘will to power’ better? I’d like to dive deeper, obviously I should read his work but I don’t think I’m clever to understand it through text.
@@jimmysmith736 yes, you arre, and if you are not, get out from videos made by freelancers in an anonimous channels and become a clever reader. Will pay off.

Nameless is de origin of das universe. Names are de mother of 10000things. 10000 things embrace positivity in their hearts And carry negativity on their backs. By combining these forces together They create harmony.
@@curiousmole6790 true. we live because our mitochondria gained the power to live inside our cells. and our cells used them to evolve to us.. so each is trying to take power from one another. but its not its just random configurations from the most simplest to the most complex. to sday life is based on power is to say God exists and exerts that on life. its not, life is random numbers all working is a beautiful complex manner.
I don't really buy will to power being more fundamental than self-preservation and reproduction. It may very well be just a function of those two, evolved to ensure their realization. Animals that strive to control territory and increase their might survive longer and reproduce better than those that don't. But they rarely if ever "discharge their power" to the detriment of these two goals, there very clearly is a mechanism preventing that. Which means to me that "the struggle for existance" does indeed take priority over "the struggle for power". An objection may be, that if we were placed inside a giant bio-factory that kept us always alive and made us birth as much children as possible, we wouldn't be automatically happy, since other desires, including desire for power, wouldn't go away. But these instincts have evolved to be always on, because in the wild there rarely was a situation when a need for, say, shelter could be left unsatisfied without it threating the organism's survival. Even if this hypothetical biofactory made these situations commoplace, the redundant drives wouldn't switch off - but that doesn't make them more fundamental than the drive to reproduce.
@@AvaloneDareios I was talking about biological drives and psychology, not metaphysics. And I think the section of the video I was responding to also did. I'm not sure I get your interpretation. Do you mean that will to power is a fundamental force that makes matter exert its influence on other matter? The matter sort of "wants" to act a certain way? And because life is a result of matter interaction, all the drives it exhibits can be described in terms of that will? Because if that's what you meant, I disagree with you (somewhat on the existance of that will itself, but mostly on the point that this makes reproduction and self-preservation merely means to an end for organisms *themselves*). But I need to ensure I'm not putting words in you mouth first.
Illiterate democracy is also the strongest enemy of their citizens ✨ wehre philosophy also find himself unable to help such types of system and people's🎉🍂
Is Christianity in Europe different?? You keep misquoting Christianity The Apostle Paul compares christian life like a person running a marathon, that's strength expression. As christians we are working to be like Jesus Christ Who we believe is The ultimate Powerful Character that's will to power
06:15 "Nietzsche was fundamentally concerned with commanding power over oneself, not over others" hahaha spoken like a true snail. What a way to throw Nietzsche's most essential qualities of "will to power" straight into the trash. Quick summary: The will to power can has 3 different qualities, Generative, Passive and Degenerative. You COMPLETELY ignore Nietzsche"s entire philosofical foundation by saying this. The generative will to power connects itsself to the passive will to power and uses the forces of this lifeform for a way to grow ITSELF. That's life-affirming, that's the fertility of life, that's literally the basis of Nietzsche's ENTIRE philosofy and why it's so controversial. This video is so extremely bad, the quotes so extremely out of context and badly interpreted, this really is a steaming pile of garbage.
Will to power, to be a person that can be supreme prime, Power is truly what u yearn , we are weak flesh & droopy bags cytoplasm but you know he's just a puppet on screen

Great Explanation! Love the in depth analysis! Just tried to sum it up under 60 seconds today on my channel, but boi was that a task! Nietzsche is too briliiatnt to fit in just one minute. Great video man!
Love Nietzsche work! Thank you for sharing 🙏

Awesome n informative video ty brother
You have done good work my good man
Bravo Bravo
Should you strive to obtain inner power before material power, and if so how exactly do you achive it?
It's a great channel.
I love all this artwork that goes along with your videos. Who created these images? ❤
A must have book. 💯
Love this channel. I hope to do some Nietzsche videos myself

Understanding the Will to the Power is Power over one's self not over others
Power of Mind over Matter. of using mind to create matter
The Power of chouce of deliberate creation
Overcoming all that has come before been taught before ...
To BECOMING creating your own system from within one's self
That's true POWER
Thats what Makes the uberman !
Using "mind to create matter"? I would agree with "using mind to change mind". You might enjoy 'Closer To Truth' channel.
Great video, as always. Would you, (or anyone in the comment section), recommend Thus Spoke Zarathustra as the entry point to Nietzche's philosophy?
Uh, maybe? It's a major deal in regards to basically reading Nietzsche as a character, but I personally recommend Beyond Good and Evil, or as said in the video Will to Power. But if you have what I must call drive, then Beyond Good and Evil is one of the best.
@@adhdasian1896 Okay, thanks :)
In the Latin word malus [bad] (which I place alongside melas [black]) the common man could be designated as the dark-coloured, above all as the dark-haired ("hic niger est" [this man is black]), as the pre-Aryan inhabitant of Italian soil, who stood out from those who became dominant, the blonds, that is, the conquering race of Aryans, most clearly through this colour. At any rate, the Gaelic race offers me an exactly corresponding example. The word fin (for example, in the name Fin-Gal), the term designating nobility and finally the good, noble, and pure, originally referred to the blond-headed man in contrast to the dusky, dark-haired original inhabitants.

You have to have a basic understanding of Schopenhauer’s ‘will’ to get the contextual framework for Nietzsche ‘will to power’. I see this as Nietzsche’s epistemological starting point in which his philosophy is a continuation of.
Taken in isolation to modern ears Nietzsche sounds a lot different to what he intended.
What's his intention, I take it as life affirming of self.
It could be seen you have hardworked more on this video. Loved it so much.
He who loves what he does wears himself out doing it.
Thank you.
Seems that the idea eternal recurrence of Will to Power in Living is clearer than the conflicts of these 2 men
the fight is of a self overcoming perspective as in ever transforming our eternal recurrence being the change one wants to be...

Problem is: A planetful of powerful ppl. Who wants to stand in the shade? The essential dilemma, dont think Mr. N solved this.
Neitzche gave birth to the higher human, the bridge between the great ape and something higher, that something higher is the Hyperian, the higher human, the over human, our new systems of philosophy and ontological mathematics will shock and awe you. Our systems have been in development since the first philosopher came on the scene, by Pythagoras and his secret school of thought that still exists today, it is through our system alone that the true nature of reality is revealed, and completely shunned by the religious, and the materialists, we have proven that reality is not material, this is also proven by quantum physics, reality is mind, it is thought, it is light, it is mathematical, humanity has lost touch with it's spirituality, most of us anyway, we are bringing it back and it will never be forgotten again, come join us and our fight to transform and change the world and ourselves as a collective!
You don't will to survive, your body demands it. So will must be more than the ability to acquire necessities. But you know what I always called will... naivety. The old joke... "How do you make God laugh? Tell him your plans!" I'm afraid Yoda was wrong. There is no do or do not, there is only try. You can only try even when you don't know, ignorant of the outcome always. Your try is your meaning, while your naivety lasts.
The truth can be scary.
The truth is the Will to Power is real. If you're observant and objective (and yes, I understand 100% objectivity is rare if not impossible), I don't know how you can possibly think otherwise.
The evidence is everywhere... it explains everything from behavior in the workplace to global wars.
I am glad I got into Nietzsche is my early 20s (I'm almost 40 now). Prior to reading his works, I had been a Christian but had lost faith in Christianity after reading about some of the atrocities and contradictions in the Bible.
I followed Enlightenment morality for a while (still believe in it to an extent) and we can thank it for a lot. But we need a new morality for this modern world.
The modern world makes no sense in a lot of ways. People follow Christianity and other Abrahamic faiths, yet we live in an age of materialism and consumerism. It seems to be an age of Nihilism. What are we trying to accomplish? What are our true goals and ambitions?
Christianity tells you not to enjoy life's pleasure and to prepare for the next world. It is good in that it promotes the growth of character to an extent, but characteristics like discipline and integrity are only part of a strong person's personality. It does not promote making the most of one's talents or abilities. Doing so is essential to truly living life to the fullest. Instead, it preaches modesty and humbling oneself before God. If God does not exist, why should you humble yourself before Him? Make yourself the God of your world.
Belief in reason and science makes people inclined to suppress their urges in certain instances and to behave in a socially-acceptable manner (treat women with respect, don't be a brute, use your brain instead of your muscles to solve problems), but what is the goal of life for a person who believes in no gods, no afterlife and nothing transcendent?
Then there are the materialistic masses who are content with watching television and listening to music and playing on their phones all day. Sure, they have desires. They want money. They want nice cars and fancy things. But they are very shallow, and because such a way of living is very unnatural (what animals care about accumulating material possessions?), they are destined to remain unfulfilled even if they acquire vast wealth and a great collection of material items.
We need power and an understanding of power. Power is good. Power is natural. Power gives you purpose and makes you feel fulfilled. But the word scares people. They think of things like forcing others into slavery, sexual abuse, physical might etc. But true power is simply self-realization. It is developing and maximizing one's capabilities to the fullest. It's the capacity to make yourself the master of your world and destiny, which requires creating and adhering to strong morals. Certain Christian and Enlightenment morals are a good starting place, but a true Superman can bend morality in accordance with his needs and desires. In particular instances, it may be necessary to use force whereas in others kindness may be preferable.
Hopefully philosophy is not dead and a relic of the past. I believe the next great breakthrough in philosophy will be based on a synthesis of Nietzsche's theory of the Will to Power and his outlook on life in general with a proper understanding of Evolution and a revised theory of Evolution. Evolution is a thing, but it doesn't quite work the way Darwin thought. It's not driven entirely by random mutations and natural selection. There is something either intrinsic to the process or something transcendent guiding and driving it. I do not believe this force to be God or something else divine. It is more like the Will to Power itself (maybe a manifestation or form of it), but it seems to be more of an organizing sort of force.
Perhaps life is the duality of the Will to Power (the desire to grow, expand, dominate, flourish etc) and the Striving for Mastery (the impulse to impose structure, to adapt to one's surroundings successfully and to set required restrictions and limits - perhaps manifesting itself in human reason) and the Superman is the one who can achieve the ideal balance between both forces, creating a world for himself in which he grows, flourishes and lives life to the fullest while operating within a moral framework that adheres to the principles of the utmost discipline and self-mastery of his drives, desires and impulses.
I just wish Niesche hadn't gone nuts in the end, it'd be more believable everything he believed.
Even Paul the apostle had said, too much study and the focus on self intellects is harmful and brings many unnecessary afflictions to his heart mind, and soul (the self). This was thousands of years before Niesche.
He didn't go "nuts" he had syphilis that affected his behavior a bit towards the end and then ended up having a really bad stroke
Nietzsche said it himself:"Anything you think about too much, becomes worrying" so be careful to think about yourself too much
Power is given. If one gains power, it is because they have been given the right set of circumstances either inwardly or outwardly, and seeing that the self by itself is ephemeral and destined to die, power which can be taken away is merely an illusion of power. Therefore, only one true power exists... that which has the power to create existence itself. That which has the power to create power itself, and thus to bestow it. All other powers are subservient and conditional to the first power. Do not seek power. Seek true wisdom... even at risk of your own humiliation, defeat, and even unto death. Although I know of no one including myself who has the ability to do it willingly. It is abhorrent to us and we hate it. Seek first to be sought, not to know but to be known. Ask and ye shall receive. Just remember... you asked for the Truth. You can't handle it. Pray to be saved from this terrible burden because by oneself, it will either kill you or it will become you... the terrible knowledge.
What I find the funniest about Fredric's work, If you actually read his philosophy you will realize that he was wrong, or in some way misinformed about. For instance, He disagrees with the stoics only because he didn't realize he actually agreed with them. Or his attribution to Darwin on self preservation, But also. He's the most misunderstood philosopher himself. Such as people attributing nihilism as a physical thing to him creating it, Or him personally believing in absolute worthlessness.
yes. it is a bad fate!

Let the youthful soul look back on life with the question:
What have I truly love up to now ?
What have elevate my soul
And at das same time
Master it ?
Then place these venerated objects in a row..
And perhaps through the patterns in de sequence
A law
A fundamental law of my true self
Will emerge
For my true self lies not deep hidden within my self
But immeasurably high above me.

The will toward technological improvement seems like a pretty large subset of what could be considered power.
No, technology is a crutch for the weak. Only the weak create machines to do what the strong man can do with his hands.
Want power? Give it.
The 16th to 19th century Canadian pastoralist movement, the common horse. Peter Gast, let Friedrich Nietzsche know what had destroyed Europe and Russa. So Nietzsche penned this, a list of notes, on what Canada wanted.
But you failed to present Nietzsche's own phililogical exegesis of the 'will to power' as a text. The 'will to power' owes its name to the political order. Only through the pathos of distance afforded to indivudals by castes and classes was the sense of a pathos of distance possible within the exhalted subject.
If you haven't read Sarah Kofman's Nietzsche and Metaphor, it is absolutely fundamental in understanding the 'will to power'.
Could you link another video that explains Nietzsche’s ‘will to power’ better? I’d like to dive deeper, obviously I should read his work but I don’t think I’m clever to understand it through text.

thats nice but its not true because from my perspective nature grows to live in symbiosis as seen evident everywhere
symbiosis doesnt disprove will to power
@@curiousmole6790 true. we live because our mitochondria gained the power to live inside our cells. and our cells used them to evolve to us.. so each is trying to take power from one another.
but its not its just random configurations from the most simplest to the most complex.
to sday life is based on power is to say God exists and exerts that on life.
its not, life is random numbers all working is a beautiful complex manner.
also tell me how a sloth is more powerful frome evolution lol
I don't really buy will to power being more fundamental than self-preservation and reproduction. It may very well be just a function of those two, evolved to ensure their realization. Animals that strive to control territory and increase their might survive longer and reproduce better than those that don't. But they rarely if ever "discharge their power" to the detriment of these two goals, there very clearly is a mechanism preventing that. Which means to me that "the struggle for existance" does indeed take priority over "the struggle for power".
An objection may be, that if we were placed inside a giant bio-factory that kept us always alive and made us birth as much children as possible, we wouldn't be automatically happy, since other desires, including desire for power, wouldn't go away. But these instincts have evolved to be always on, because in the wild there rarely was a situation when a need for, say, shelter could be left unsatisfied without it threating the organism's survival. Even if this hypothetical biofactory made these situations commoplace, the redundant drives wouldn't switch off - but that doesn't make them more fundamental than the drive to reproduce.
@@AvaloneDareios I was talking about biological drives and psychology, not metaphysics. And I think the section of the video I was responding to also did.
I'm not sure I get your interpretation. Do you mean that will to power is a fundamental force that makes matter exert its influence on other matter? The matter sort of "wants" to act a certain way? And because life is a result of matter interaction, all the drives it exhibits can be described in terms of that will? Because if that's what you meant, I disagree with you (somewhat on the existance of that will itself, but mostly on the point that this makes reproduction and self-preservation merely means to an end for organisms *themselves*). But I need to ensure I'm not putting words in you mouth first.
Illiterate democracy is also the strongest enemy of their citizens ✨ wehre philosophy also find himself unable to help such types of system and people's🎉🍂
Is Christianity in Europe different?? You keep misquoting Christianity The Apostle Paul compares christian life like a person running a marathon, that's strength expression. As christians we are working to be like Jesus Christ Who we believe is The ultimate Powerful Character that's will to power

Isn't the will to power defined by Schopenhauer ?
06:15 "Nietzsche was fundamentally concerned with commanding power over oneself, not over others" hahaha spoken like a true snail. What a way to throw Nietzsche's most essential qualities of "will to power" straight into the trash.
Quick summary: The will to power can has 3 different qualities, Generative, Passive and Degenerative. You COMPLETELY ignore Nietzsche"s entire philosofical foundation by saying this. The generative will to power connects itsself to the passive will to power and uses the forces of this lifeform for a way to grow ITSELF. That's life-affirming, that's the fertility of life, that's literally the basis of Nietzsche's ENTIRE philosofy and why it's so controversial. This video is so extremely bad, the quotes so extremely out of context and badly interpreted, this really is a steaming pile of garbage.

I don't think Nietzsche knows what suffering even is. I think he's clueless over what true suffering is.
I don’t know the man lived with a pretty severe illness that almost killed him when he was a child I think. I can’t remember what it was called.
