Well, I just like the idea that he is life affirming, and believes in living strongly and also believes that a certain amount of struggle and suffering is necessary for greatness. But, I'm also partially motivated to exercise due to my beliefs about evolution and sexual selection in humans. The idea that I'll signal health and confidence in my behavior and be more attractive to women interests me.

Why do people insist on absolutes, life is never black and white, life is a spectrum of grey. Asceticism is not the way as much as Hedonism is not the way, balance must be struck in all thing , depending on the individual it will be in different degrees. I never hear of assertions on balance expect with yin and yang Asian philosophy. People love to compartmentalize so much yet all they need do is look within themselves and to nature to see that absolutes are a poor mans coping mechanism to interpreting the ways if the world.

@cgpalmieri

Agreed, (somewhat.) To some extent, I believe Nietzsche's skepticism is in essence prescribing balance to life. Also, Amor fati, calls for balance between what we want/wanted with what has happened and can't be controlled. These seems like permissible and fluid absolutes required for life in the grey zone, wouldn't you say?

+Sebanoe The video doesn't fully lay out Nietzsche. Nietzsche says we should balance life out in a matter of Dionysian and Apollonian forces. (Irrational and rational) What Nietzsche does say is that we, the western culture, are too Apollonian and need a more Dionysian approach. Nieztsche, to a certain degree is Socrates. He gives you a way of life, a time of reevaluation with new tools.

I'm afraid this man is going to poison my mind before I read Nietzsche.

The good thing about the past is that its in the past, but every human memory created has deletions, distortions and/or generalizations to so degree, so change the way you think about the events, and look at them with the maturity you have gained through experience

@dear all.. what kind of video creation /editing softwares are available to create similar concepts...

One of the best analyses of Nietzsche is by William Gayley Simpson in his book, Which Way Western Man? (chapters 2 and 4), which is available on Archive*org.

I agree with your view that *amor fati* is central to understanding Nietzsche. That and the "what if?" that is Eternal Recurrence, it seems to colour absolutely everything in what Nietzsche has to say.

As it is explained in the video I am not sure how loving your fate would lead to a stronger individual. On some level regret, sorrow, and grief are important for developing excellence. I don't think there is a direct contradiction between this and loving your fate but there is a tension which would make this very difficult.

What program do you use for your videos to create the drawing effect? it looks the same as the one in the fight mediocrity channel.. Great Vid BTW!

Amazing analysis! Subscribed!

Live life meaningful

Nietzsche knew that even his ideal vision of how to live a good life was not "good" for everyone to apply. Fair his skepticism was even self directed? He thought in a "your experience may vary way?" If people have an issue of falling into that thought loop of "what if," just remember. There's nothing you can do about it now. Can't dwell on if things only had been different or of I did this different. Can't go back and undo.

Hey really enjoyed it! One question tho, if he is saying the past could not have been any different, does that mean that our future is already decided. If this is true then it would take away from living a meaningful life?

Nietzsche's moral philosophy of "Amor Fati" very succinctly put. I'm also a fan of anyone who further explains the context of the whole "god is dead" deal because wayyyyy too many take this at face value. Thank you for the vid. "I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things; then I shall be one of those who make things beautiful. Amor fati: let that be my love henceforth! I do not want to wage war against what is ugly. I do not want to accuse; I do not even want to accuse those who accuse. Looking away shall be my only negation. And all in all and on the whole: some day I wish to be only a Yes-sayer." ~From The Gay Science

Can someone please tell me, with what software was this video made?

This is one of the better videos about nietzsche on KZread, well done.

Honestly this sounds a lot like the philosophy of Ayn Rand on rational self-interest and her belief that every man is responsible to think and achieve their individual happiness

I'm living the best I can

Nietzsche - the only philosopher worth reading.

Have we not returned to the age of all against all, self-sacrifice and empathy being out of fashion, just the world Nietzche advocated.

I abhor reflecting on what might have been in my life. Who cares what might have been? That wouldn't be me, and I rather like who I am. So why would I want to change it. Sure, there are things that haven't gone well in my life, but that's part of living. That's part of *amor fati*; loving all aspects of life and not just the parts that are comfortable. *Amor Fati* and the *Eternal recurrence* is only possible in a world that contains pain and suffering if you love the parts of your life that are full of pain and suffering. What's strangely appealing about Nietzsche's philosophy is that it is so esoteric, (living life as though you would want nothing other than to live your life forever) yet is also so pragmatic. (The world is filled with pain and suffering, and you need to come to grips with it.) As a Kantian, I actually find quite a bit of kinship with Nietzsche's philosophy despite him being a critic of Kantian Deontology.

insiggewende video. dankie ! :)

In the end of "Also Sprach.." there is a mention of the rumor that god still NOT dead and\or was resurrected. People never read Nitsche carefully, it seems

The important thing is elimination of fear and constriction

The best part is when he talks about Nietzsche's love of one's fate (amor fati). ''DELUSION (MOHA) The pasha of delusion derives from a life-style that is inconsistent, without a center, and constantly gravitating around external factors to which the empirical subject draws its sense of identity: hence hope and its counterpart, delusion, which take place when one's hopes and goals are not fulfilled, and when one's expectations are not met. The vira rescinds this bond and purifies his will, since external circumstances do not dishearten him but always find him active and invulnerable. Obviously, this rescindment requires a flexible and agile will, if one is to let go and to subsequently keep going, without dwelling on negative factors and thus allowing them to break one's spirit. In a wider context than a mere strengthening of the will, besides the capability of accepting all things as unavoidable, it is a matter of understanding. It is taught that delusions, adversities, personal tragedies and failures, even catastrophes may play the role of a hidden guru, of a spiritual teacher sui generis; they may be interpreted as signs to discern the right path [Julius Evola, The Yoga Of Power, Chapter VII, The Virgin: Release From Bondage].

very good video. very clear about the fact that nietzsche was AGAINST compassion and self sacrifice. this is something that people tend to avoid.

@caseyharrington4947

8 жыл бұрын

It was less about whether they avoid it but should they avoid it and would it make them more fulfilled

This makes perfect sense if one is a materialist. If we are not of the stuff of spirit, then we are just animals, so to be "noble", is to be a "noble animal". If there are no "absolutes", then we become "absolute" unto ourselves according to a "fate" we have no control over, and if we lead this "good life", in the end we are nothing anyway. Now build a society from that...

So, life goal = possess amor fati?

i didnt get anything from this video, any summaries ?

¿Por que el titulo esta en español si el video no tiene subtitulo?

I love Kant.

I wonder what Nietzsche would've have thought had he lived longer? I know in his writings he says pity is for the weak but in Turin that fateful day, when seeing that horse being whipped so unmercifully he flung his himself to protect him, crying all the while. What does that mean? A lot of his philosophy was a compensation for his life of agony I think. Would he have changed at least part of his worldview? When that devil whispered in his ear the gist of life-the Eternal Return-he didn't know what still faced him. It's up to us to figure out the meaning of what his life was. What happened to him? If he was sick and that's what caused the breakdown that's one thing. If, on the other hand, he collapsed due to his beliefs then we need to find out where he went wrong. Are we able to do that? Or are we the "last men"?

***** The _reason_ why I call nihilism "childish" is simply because saying "there is no meaning to anything" is a claim of absolute truth. That is, it is another way of saying "the absolute truth is that there is no absolute truth." I'm all about paradox, but this takes us back to (nothing) = (everything.) Also, it can be interpreted as really meaning "life is complicated so it isn't worth understanding." Calculus wasn't worked out overnight. Giving up on understanding isn't a form of understanding, IMO.

It is highly noticeable that this presentation was made for a group of students of a U.S.A. university

I wish Nietzche was around today... would love to drop some shit on him I've been thinking up.

This guy's a stoic.

someone summerise his virtue what he defines happiness as and what he thinks the good life is for my homework

very nice explanation!

"Behind your thoughts and feelings, my brother, there stands a mighty ruler. An unknown sage - whose name is self. In your body he dwells. There is more reason in your body than in your best wisdom."- Friedrich Nietzsche. The only way we can live the good life is by living in the present, which will give you the most fulfilling life you can have. However, you must turn off your mind (thoughts and feelings) to get in touch with your true self (consciousness) that Nietzsche talks about. *Google truth contest* and read "The Present" to learn how to do it. The whole book is enlightening, especially the beginning.

As cool and interesting of what I've read and what people converse about Nietzsche. Personally I always translate many of his examples different than most people though there is typically a middle ground there as well. With that said I think many Philosophers, Teachers, Sages, Religions, and even just storytellers can give good insight to human life and how we interact with ourselves, each other and even nature around us. However when it comes to Nietzsche I'd take Confucius anyday.

Finally philosophy delivered with actual depth and not just sugar coated and sprinkled with jargon

An introduction to Master Morality Amor Fati!! Mine is of Strength and Lust & -Power+!!!!

"When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you."; "Beware when ye fight monsters that ye make not a monster of yourself.": are these not well known of Nietzsche to have been said, more so than that "God is dead."? Their relevance to "the good life", that one who would be fulfilled would need to know what it is not to be fulfilled, and, in daring to differ, that difference for its own sake is not Amor Fati, and that, together, one need not make a monster of an as-yet-to-be-fulfilled, would seem to offer a more firm foundation for a revaluation of values than the mere rejection of a rather simplistic, socially proscriptive, near tyrannical & inept, rendition of the human spirit, such as one might read out of a reductionist monotheist cultus of human awareness, relative to what-is-possible-for-one-to-know.

Just a sidenote: His name is pronounced "Nitch". Ask Tony Soprano

Here in my garage...

He himself lived like a tortured monk. Amor Fati.. he is a moralist.

If anything he wanted individuals to experiment with what life can offer everyone. He agrees with Socrates when the old Athenian said: "Think for yourselves." Nietzsche emphasized that with the death of an objective ideal, The Christian god, what we have is infinite possibility.

So he was Sith? In all seriousness, it is possible to not what anything to be different, or not to regret your actions, but I believe Stoicism is the strongest philosophy for doing this. The idea that, 'you can't change the past so why regret anything?'.
