I always say to myself…don’t comment again. I’m just so grateful I can’t help it. What always strikes me when you share is that you’ve spent your own time investing in yourself so these things you say can come out as fully developed as they do. That is what I am most grateful for…for the unseen hours and what drove you to these studies. Thank you for mentioning Frankl as someone to read. It made me think how vastly different what he came away with was than say…Elie Wiesel. What we allow to shape us. Thank you for your videos.

I have been taking a coaching program about perspective, and here is one thing I have learned. We are the subjects that often obsessively look at our objects. What we forget is that there is a layer of conscience past the subject and object, which is the perspective of the director. Think of your life as a film. When you are limited to just the film and its twists and turns, you will twist and turn with it; however, when you are watching the film, even if its a horror film, you will enjoy it… because your perspective is beyond what justs what happens in the movie. Think of the film as your life.

Your channel will soon become a success I hope your pure wisdom and knowledge you teach the world will be consistent

what a blessing it is to listen to you. it pleases my soul.

Thank you so much. I have been deeply desiring for over 10 years to hear a man say that our purpose in life isn't simply to procreate. Hearing those words coming from a man, simply set my mind and heart free in ways that will keep unfolding. I consider the point of life, as described by the author Vladimir Megre, "co-creation and joy for all from our contemplation". This is one of my favorite videos from you so far from start to finish. Thank you, again!

You make this life a much safer place to be in with your presence. Thank you for being you.

Unrevealed human potential is the deepest sadness

I literally couldn't hold back my tears after hearing "the meaning of life is to give life meaning." Those types of phrases are only capable of being expressed by sublime hearts. Thank you for sharing your knowledge about these beautiful thoughts.

Keep speaking, it is wildly helpful to so many people.

I love that I get to see your new videos on my day off ...it's like my special little treat after a long week of work

At my age, I have known this concept for many years and I continue to strive to find meaning for my life, only to sometimes have events/problems shatter that meaning. Then I must find new meanings. I have made radical changes, a few times. Thank goodness I'm an independent and flexible type of person, but I've been humbled a few times ( I know of my insignificance) . I enjoy your videos, you give me a lot to think about , although sometimes I disagree with some of your content ( I tend to see things more in grey shades). But then again, I probably have had a tougher life than some people. Yes, we are in a constant battle between our animal side and, our higher being side-- and it's our higher being that tells us we can do better.

I'm in the turning point of my life. I truly needed this. Thank you, philosopher.

"It depends on where you came from and what it made you believe." Thats a major insight at such a young age. Dont forget that as you get older :-)

Since I meet your channel my perspective of how i see the world has change for better, thanks for every one of your videos, i'm always waiting for the next.

Man's search for meaning is one of my most favourite books. I often revisit it to remind myself of my purpose. Thank you for mentioning it and great video again! I eagerly wait for your new videos. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

Thank you ❤ Please do consider making a video on how to find inner peace in this chaotic world. I'm I very much interested in your insights.

These videos help me a lot. As I'm exploring and learning from the great philosophers, so far I'm only through Seneca and Marcus Aurelius...Listening to your thoughts and perspectives help ground some of these ideas in some way. Also the way these are filmed is very high quality and has a unique look + your ability to in one take speak for 20 minutes and clearly work through these complex ideas is very impressive. Thank you for what you do.

Thank you for your videos

Much love from Africa,Kenya🇰🇪..you really speak to our souls❤️

Thank you for the conversation. I have read Viktor Frankl, such a beautiful and deep book, it has definitely changed how I look at myself, at the world and people around me. It puts everything into perspective.

Ironically, this video is full of external beliefs that are being pushed onto people. To tell us that we can reach divinity, you are doing what you accuse external belief systems of doing, lol. You're not alone in this though, and I do not say this with any animosity. I love this channel. It's just always ironic to me that views like this are presented as somehow neutral when really they're far from that. Love the vids, keep it up

I've been thinking more so each day with greater agency about the little things and to what really matters, the spectacle of one's life in youth is fleeting. I have a lot to be grateful for. Working on one's self and being easy with that self with major life changes is the true challenge. We are a species that can make great strides as a whole or be quite self destructive, your thought process is very appreciated here and is always mindful. Thank you 🖖

I’m getting hooked on these videos! ❤

I find your content so therapeutic

I truly love the videos you put out for us. One topic i'd really like for you to speak on is impulsiveness and not being patient. Things i really been struggling with. Everyday is a process for the longterm achivements. I found myself being disciplined and patient for a short period of time, then one day i feel like it all has to happen that day.

will do, thank you! will send you my notes booklet at the end of your series. xx

I discovered you this week. I really like what you do.

I have 3 favorite channels on KZread and your channel is one of them. I thought of Friedrich Nietzsche while listening to you today. He said, “He who has a WHY to live can bear almost any how.” It's similar to what Viktor Frankl says in Man's Search for Meaning (great book recommendation).

I LOVE your content ❤❤❤❤

Thank God for you! Thank god that you exist at this time❤

I enjoyed this topic. I’ve always felt that we are in control of our destiny. The beauty of free will, is to give life meaning. As always, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I would love to hear your thoughts on destiny/fate. I struggle with both concepts because I feel to believe in either is to give up free will.

Freedom of thoughtxxx❤

Holy Moly. You have changed my life man.

I know that I have made bad choices in my life, but what I have noticed is how unattainable everything has become! In terms of finding the right person to live the rest of your life with or being able to afford to buy a home or making and creating long term relationships with other people. To me these are the things that are damaging us the individual! Not being able to attain the 3 basics, Home, Love and Family is what has left us all submissive and lost! Passivism has left us all feeling psychologically infantile and stuck. Appreciate your insight, thank you!

I was moved with this episode. Very powerful spiritual message. Thank you! (Btw, rabbits are a very cute animal. )

Ah, Jnana Yoga or Jnana Marga, the "path of knowledge". Good talk 🙏🏻

There is a devine power that controls this reality.❤

Your channel is refreshing

Thank you for sharing another video. From “Man’s Search for Meaning”, Victor Frankl, was in a privileged position as a person with a medical degree in the camps, this made his skills more indispensable than others’. One of the main viewpoints that I took from his story which I found profound & unique was that he was able to hold love for his family but also recognize that he could build another family in the future if he became free again. Of course, other viewpoints such as the one you mentioned, as well as his ability to live in the moment (i.e. sharing how he would appreciate the sunset even amongst the death and abuse), show an amazing amount of wisdom. But most people cannot hold love and appreciation so separately from possession, and this bit I think about quite frequently as guidance. Once again thanks for the wisdom shared here and opening up the discussion. God bless 💗

Jung people led me to Frankl. I noticed the same thing, that he accepted he would need to rebuild his life. As he lost his research that had been sewn into the hem of his jacket, he decided to rewrite it when he got free. That book lifted me out of depression although I’m back in the well again.

Also wanted to share, my name is Jeana (pronounced Gina) and I get called Gianna sometimes but I don't mind. ☺ I love your name!

You've just blown my mind. Thanks. Can you do a video explaining why what we perceive as good and virtues is good and virtues? I always was interested for the answer, because deep down I know it's true, but it also bothers me that I can't rationally explain it.

Why do you think that the virtues we ourselves have created would be the "highest" form of values available? And don't you think the concept of those virtues which is "the good" is religious in itself and therefore doesn't fit your goal of pursuing a meaning that is purely rational/non spiritual?

“Why become an animal, when you can become a God?”. This really resonates, especially that I am currently reading Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

connecting the dots and realizing that we human beings cant be God. If we could, there would be no uncontrollable things, we would not need to react to certain situations but only act and produce our own situations that suit us and etc… We are not independent. Our existence is very dependent on the existence of the Independent.

Good things happen, bad things happen; good things happen to your hair.

Definitely, expect the answer (to question 'what is the meaning of life') from yourself! Epictetus is not known as an ingrate, right? Epictetus's line about dragging around a little corpse ironically seems very penirious given the marvelous and exceptional things we enjoy in these positively powerful bodies (which are also a creation of God/Source/The All). The only reason we can exist here in a meaningful way is to be connected to the body. What are we but ghosts or hidden spirits with no voice without the body? What say Epictetus if he never existed in physical form?

I like this brother.

It's fascinating how globalization has sparked a reevaluation of personal meaning and purpose in today's world! 💭 Philosophy, especially existentialism, offers a compelling framework for navigating these existential questions and finding individual meaning amidst the chaos of modern life.

Great video as always. Could you also upload these videos to Spotify? I would love to listen to them while traveling or working out.

While choosing to pursue being "god instead of animal" sounds lucrative and might serve as an eye-opener, let us not think that way too quickly. Mind being, afterall, bound to body in a relationship which can be altered, but not effaced. To ovelook this would most definately lead to a great suffering of the mind. Let this also be a dislcaimer for us as humans, who seem to have a weak spot for playing gods.

Straight to the point CGI.

Therefore,do not allow to forfeit your potential. We are reminded from the stories of Narcissus and Cassiopeia, to when the god of inner man falls short in its incapability to attain the harmony of balance in the Virtues.
