What would i say to myself 26y ago?
- Trust your gut: You're right about what you intuitively feel that ...
- Something is wrong here Nihilism is wrong and something is possible ...
- True happiness is possible, and hence there is a purpose
- Here's how to realize it
- Watch out ... easy to get sucked into the default path ...
WAKE UP! WAKE UP! This is it. This is the time you've got. Don't waste it on the stuff that doesn't matter.
-
-
Summary 3: Fundamental wellbeing is possible. Gives an answer what to do with your life. Suggests a reprioritization ... (don't denigrate materialism, rather let's not be so imbalanced)
-
-
-
Questioning across a whole set of areas. Combination of intuition that something was wrong (and some sense of answer) and overall doubt tending to nihilism
-
Why is there unkindness? Why don't we stand up more? Moral order? Girl humiliated. Rose destroyed. Vandalism.
Conventions of our society. Old boys and boy being beaten and grabbing the cane. Why do we obey the rules, the teachers, the prefects etc
-
-
Culmination: i was lost, lonely, depressed.
-
?? Context: death of god, materialism, growing relativism. Magic has gone out of the world ...
Summary 1: I have good news! If you are asking these question you are onto something profound. And, in fact, there are answers ... and they are root connected
-
-
-
Associatedly answers moral nihilism: when you touch these states there is a fundamental radiant goodness ...
I was lost: disillusioned, despairing.
