I worked as a musician for many years. However, I never “made it”. Most people don’t. When I examine my path, I realize that I started out writing music from my own “map of reality”. People loved my music. But I then became obsessed with Kurt Cobain. I learned a lot from my in-depth study of his life and music. But at some point, I lost my own “map of reality” in songwriting, and started to just emulate Kurt. I lost my own voice in the process. I had tons of success with my music at first (when it came from my voice). But as I became less myself, people noticed and many tuned out. If you lose your own “map of reality”, you will also lose a lot of respect for the things you put out into the world. People are intuitive. They know when something truly comes from you, or is just an echo of someone else.

I love the description of "monologue rather than constructive dialogue", I've never even thought of that. But, to be honest with you, I feel like it's always been that way. That most people are followers. That's just how it is. I feel like that's the real message the Matrix movie was trying to get across too. Anybody can be freed and wake up at any point, but they don't. We're asleep. It's like we're dreaming and we could become lucid but don't. Just living life without ever being aware of our place in the universe. And, that's okay. It is sad, but it's alright. We all have the freedom to question everything, ourselves and our beliefs included. And hey, even if we're conscious of it or not, we'll always be growing in some form or another, learning things as we get older. We'll be asleep for as long as we want to, and when we don't want to be asleep in this game anymore, we'll wake up. And when we don't want to be awake anymore, we'll go back to sleep.

@@Yusa_Beach well, we can choose to become more ignorant, I'd say. It's like an addiction. We know smoking cigarettes are bad. Yet, some of us do it anyway and construct a complex system of lies we tell ourselves to rationalize it. We do the same for all kinds of bad habits to convince ourselves it's alright, even though deep down we know these habits are not good for us. Basically, we can have knowledge of something that would be of great benefit or detriment to us, but not act in accordance with that knowledge. "There's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path." This is what I mean by "we'll wake up and we'll go back to sleep when we want to". We can choose to open our minds, our hearts, and our eyes, at any time, but sometimes it hurts. This is why we are very hesitant to let our guards down, especially around strangers but even with those closer to us. It damages our ego. We put down our walls and become vulnerable. It's how connections are formed but it's also how we get burned, double crossed, hurt, insulted, and humiliated. But connections are ultimately what matters most, at least to me, though one of the longest running studies have shown that of all the things in life that bring joy to people it is almost always having positive bonds, and strong, authentic ones, with the people you care about. Love and compassion. The more you tend to these flowers in your life, and "You can always be more kind" (Tenzin Gyatso), the more they will blossom and, well things just get better. They feel more purposeful too. That's my opinion anyways, I'm not doing too great of a job articulating it and I may be wrong. If you ever any rebuttles or things to contradict what I just said, please throw them at me. Believe me I love getting proven wrong. It's an opportunity to learn, grow, and it's always humbling.

Well said. Humanity is brainwashed into believing into others' reality instead of each of us seeing reality through each's perspective.

Follow the history of the medical field and how it has been warped to profit those that gain from your "disorder". There's a reason why Know Thyself is so powerful.. because we have been conditioned to do the opposite and then rely on pharmaceuticals and shrinks for the rest of our lives. Today's society is excapism and entrapment of your true potential and lable you in the same category as "conspiracy theories". It's a long story being spun and you have to know that you are powerful beyond measure. Each one of us has been stigmatized. Look at all the people that knew how to live off earth.... slowly eradicated. Things made legal and things banned, yet who exactly profits from those bans and who's culture and knowledge is silenced or killed off in the process?Jiddu Krishnamurti Quotes It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. There have been many people trying to tell us that the answers are within us. We have a library at our fingertips and ways to break the confinement put on many, but we first need to recognize the reason for labeling in the first place. Loss of identity, feelings of hopelessness and loneliness. Pain and violence thrown at us from almost every angle now and it's all led up to this point in time. There is a strength and unity in humans, just like nature and they feed of the pain and negativity. Why the constant observations? Why try get us all into our homes now and safe with certain apps? It takes courage and strength to walk alone, but the irony of this is..that we are universal💞🪐🌻

At some point yes you may not be able to learn much from anyone within the same wavelength as you once you tend to have known what they already know, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they will always be that way. A long quote I made just now: "Hang out with a Friend long enough in the moment and you will know everything them, but have them drift apart from you for a while to then have them come back to you, will have you seeing something new to them while it wasn't there before." It's litterally just two people having the same tribe mentality to then have them differ when they seem to learn new things. (Which makes them drift apart) And once they are seen together again and still connect to one another they will tell each other what they know/learned from their journey.

I'm in a very rough place in my life right now. And for whatever reason, this video brought me to tears. I couldn't help being so incredibly overcome with sadness at the fact that most people in our world are so far disconnected from any hope of finding truth, and so caught up in drama and belief that it feels like we will be stuck in a dark age forever. But then, at the end, I was overcome with joy, at the reality that we are all the same, and if I have the potential to realize this, we all do. And maybe we can overcome this period of disconnection by learning from each other. Thank you for this video.

The many tears you cry may be the price of the many smiles you will have in the future. And you can Remember what Joy, Fulfillment, and Happiness feels like. Everyone on Earth seeks those things. Why? Because those things are Worth Every Effort to Experience again. It is Great to Feel Great! It may not be free from effort but it is Great and Worth the Effort. Stay on the " High Road" the Best you can. Do what you must to regain your life. Remember that there "aren't any Problems, Just Changes in Plans." A Happy, Fulfilled Future is waiting for you!

These are the best videos I've seen in my life. Thnak you for forever.

I grew up thinking for myself. I wound up having a completely different perspective on religion, life, and reality itself than everyone around me. I started this journey by myself, for myself. This video pretty much sums up what I learned by mapping my own reality. My fears have set me back from allowing others room for the same path. I live in a place where the masses follow violence, so I became afraid when those close to me did not listen to my teachings. I don't want them on the path of the followers, but that never will be my choice to make. I think aside from learning to think for yourself, learning to let others learn about thinking for themselves can be harder. No matter how wise and knowledgable one gets, no one is the absolute authority. That will always include myself. Life does not fit neatly in our human labels. Just because we limit our perspectives on things, does not mean reality is limited to our perspectives.

32 years old and still discovering many new truths perspectives opinions and beliefs from many people never stop learning and never think you know it all always question everything and love like tomorrow is not guaranteed... To anyone struggling or going through a low point if you are reading this you can do it do not give up if you have no one know that I believe in you and love you. ❤

"The map is-not the territory; the word is-not the thing spoken about." - Alfred Korzybski

My mind is blown. I will have to watch this over and over to ingrain this into my mind. Great video!!!

Never delete this u just worded this perfectly I just learnt this for my self and couldn’t put it into words

My take on this is that at some point you'll need to stop asking how things are or how they should be, of course we need solid foundations on how things work when we are young, but as we grow older we develop as individuals our necessities and taste change from one another, they get so specific that you can look at the same thing but the other person will tell you that it's total different thing, that what are you seeing is false, but you should trust yourself, by this time in my life I've had a few mentors and comparing them they had extremely opposite takes on life and in their vision of life they were living the life they wanted (and they were doing well by their own terms), at this point in my life I won't bother to ask someone else "how is it?" or "how it should be?" I'd rather try it myself by my own terms without asking permission of anyone (and please don't take it the wrong way, I'm not talking about doing illegal stuff or being an a-hole), I'm saying that in this era of "gurus" you are not looking at the answer you are looking at his/her experiences and memories, that's not your truth, because you're not them and they don't know deep down to the core your strengths, your necessities, your taste, they haven't walked in your shoes for at least one minute, that's why I no longer ask people how it should be, because at the end of the day once you've heard enough bull from people you'll realize that everyone has a different take on "how it should be" make sure that is YOUR take and not someone else's.

I just ask myself "what is the worst that could happen anyway? :D", This development has made me bit more cocky or arrogant in certain situations, but I do prefer it to the shy silent pussy I used to be

This CRUCIAL documentary is also full of such analogies! Watch "The Connections (2021) [short documentary]" on youtube 💖

I've looked for answers like many to life's questions, but this is the first time I've thought (because of your video) about followers and believers. To me this is both simple and profound - it is actually very apparent and intuitive BUT I actually often follow when I think "I'm thinking for myself". There is a subtlety where I fear being wrong and unsure of things, I look for foundation and something to guide me. I find it in the teachings and wisdom of others, I learn and integrate it (as did the traveler). It is the last part of where the farmer says to part ways, and the essence of this video, that I never notice...that I never leave. Being a believer led me to trust too much, false promises and empty words - advice that is hollow. All because I didn't verify and find out what worked for me or if it were true. This story perfectly illustrates what is less obvious in the world...following a mentor, following textbooks, following good advice and others. Where we never move on and become inquisitive again. Thank you for this video and your channel, it's been very helpful!

*Most great accomplishments were achieved by the people, who at first had no idea what they were doing.* Keep going my friend. I am cheering for you. 🙂

This philosophy is helping me find solace in the fact that I have moved on from my PhD and PhD advisor. I can hardly overstate how much trust and confidence I have in him, but I guess this immense trust could begin to hurt my own development as a scientist. It’s generally true in science that tenure is only given to those who have published studies with a broad range of other scientists, and not only their PhD advisor. How can you develop your own understanding otherwise? I still miss my PhD advisor a lot but at least now I have a better understanding of the importance of the separation. Many thanks!

It is more so identifying with yourself and the tools you gained that you can apply in life and spread the knowledge you attained but also make it grow and possibly improve throughout your future endeavors. An amazing thought process and excellent point of view to reflect on

That line "construct your own map of reality" .This struck the heart. A scenario or a reality can just be seen but when you explain it..u might not realize it but that whole scenario that u r explaining is the connection of dots in some way.. Overall,the reality which u cannot see or u hv never seen can be understood by connecting certain points...& that very word "understood" means "getting a glance of reality" here..

The lesson if learned at all, is usually learned the hard way. I know most of us hate being alone, But it truly shows you how strong you are and what you are actually capable of.👊

@Yusa_Beach

2 жыл бұрын

@@mikemodano863 I think it's what one tries to do anything. By trying to find something you automatically limit your view when trying to figure out what you want to define, desire, try to do anything, and try to not do all those things to what i just suggested one would want to do. Ex: You could define life as really simple and you could be wrong or you could say it's complex and also be possibly incorrect. "Maybe" just might or might not be the word. Yes or no, Or maybe both "yes" or both "no". It is like a contradiction you could say, but by saying that it is what could also not be true (Like i said, limiting ones view). A better way of explaining it is that, it "could" be anything while it "couldn't" be anything. "It" (implying reality) is just "is" and when you try to define "it". You start to see different things And i think this was what Nietzsche was trying to say (But also not trying to say if you understand what I mean). I guess another way of putting it if you're still confused. Is lets take "yes" and "no" for example. When someone asks you something lets say they want something from you. And if i asked you is that true you would probably say "Yes" or if you thought something different then "no" Someone could say "Yes and no" but what if it was NOT "yes and no" (This is what I mean). It's somethung you probability couldn't even think of since even the langauge you speak can limit your type of view of how reality can be. When it comes to being a believer or ddebater, usually when someone who can't see how you see reality in a way that incorporates what you see is deemed intellegent, a genius or whatever. It's what makes you believe what they're saying. And then that's how you end up as a follower.

My drivers instructer told me something that made me alot less anxious when learning to drive: - Getting a drivers license wont make you an expert, just good enough so you can discover and learn by yourself in practice. I felt that this is relatable, where most look for explainations and truth, they find captured moments of someone elses experience, at a different time, and thus cant apply it to their own reality, but if you instead use it as a guide, general understanding of how things work, you can go out and experience it for yourself and then form your own capture of a momentary experience in your life, and hopefully many more.

I know right 🙄😑. So many people idiotically filled in their heads with bullshit from one side thats very biased. So when it comes to actually talking about a topic or issue they just attack eachother and regurgitate propaganda and other untruthful shill. I'm so glad people like you don't walk around wearing a blind fold cluelessly following whoever or whatever popular on the media or simply a trend. I wish people would just do research and inquire further about lies and mistruths of this world

This is so extremely relevant with what's going on in the world. A huge group of people is blindly believing and following the "experts" without even trying to find their own perception of the truth, and another huge set of people have rejected the experts only to find other "experts" to blindly follow. A few months back I realized I was in that second camp and started truly doing my own research (which is not always easy, a s I'm not a scientist/politician and can't always clearly figure out what's going on without going through some biased source--but it's something we ALL need to do.) If we all do this, then we can come together and discuss our findings in a civilized fashion until we reach some semblance of a shared reality...one day. It may be a long, hard road, but I think we'll get there as more people realize how necessary self-autonomy, self-discovery, and intuition are. Thanks for this video!

One of the most powerful teachning in this video. I have come across this though and attitude which requires quite a bit of focus and intention. You have shared this attitude and discipline concerning the path of oneself in a way that is so simple and easy to understand as someone who might have even never thought about this.

'Thus spoke Zarathustra' is my favourite of Nietzsche's literature. Thank you for covering this.

I was an everyday couch potato once at the start of my preteens, then I chose to be a devote of a guy who preached self improvement. However after a while I still found myself suffering, because I wasn’t true to myself. It was a good starting point but not everyone’s lifestyles should be the same. Slowly I began doing things my way and I found greater inner peace. It was a hard thing to become my own capable thinker, challenging his perspectives made me feel wrong and constantly doubtful of myself, but I am glad I let myself do so because I really you can’t shove everyone into a box. As an example, I strictly follow his routine of exercising in the morning, and whatever else it entailed, but it was immensely stifling to my own freedom, while I still do good habits as such, I do them the way I want and like to and that has allowed me greater motivation and peace.

I love this👏🏻 came to the same realization myself... Many people spend their life believing and following someone elses idea of enlightenment and freedom without actually experiencing it themselves. Its like spedning your life reading self help books, its all good in thought but we dont truly experience it untill we put the book down and transfer the skills into reality. Far too many people waste their life seeking the truth off other people who themselves are lost seeing the truth.. the harsh reality is that many of these "enlightened" KZreadrs🤥 have no idea what theyre preaching and are so lost they dont even realise

*THANK YOU* !!! Someone I used to follow blindly my whole life sent me your YT channel. Now I understand why this person suddenly "abandoned" me and why I felt I was on my own. I guess it was time for me to grow up, alone but more connected to reality. Thank you ! (maybe this is not the real reason, but it feels good anyway :D) Have a nice day everyone ~ !

"A man can give you his memories of the truth but he can never give you the truth itself." Reality is really just our interpretation of an illusion.

THE best video I've seen today. Thank you. 🙏😑

Most people need teachers. Think about five people you know well, and consider which of them would gain knowledge, let alone wisdom, by themselves. Nietzsche frequently refers to the philosopher as a loner, and they are so - but they are a tiny minority.

Even as Inquirers, we still have to take _something_ on faith at _some_ point or another. As humans, we're limited in our time and energy on our own as to what we can inquire about, so we'll have to become Believers to others who can teach or guide us towards the understanding they had found themselves that we couldn't, or didn't, Inquire about. But we _all_ gain knowledge and wisdom over the years on our own. In some way or another. Profound understandings are few and far between, sure, but we're all growing from who we were yesterday.

Agreed, also I don't think Nietzche meant it as an absolute, all encompassing truth, very few of those exist eg death, that's an absolute truth for all people.Not much else

Wrong. Most people don't "need" teachers. Most people "want" teachers because they are either too afraid, too uncertain or too lazy to undertake the effort to seek out truth on their own.
