there is no god

 Post-humanism. ​ ​ The modern contract provides power on condition that you give up your beliefs in the grand cosmic plan that gives meaning to life. ​ It was humanism that provided an antidote to meaningless and lawless beings. This new religion of humanism worships humanity and demands the role of natural law. Where in the past grand cosmic plans gave meaning to human life, humanism reverses its role, allowing human experience to give meaning to the universe. According to humanism, human beings must derive from their inner experiences not only the meaning of life, but also the meaning of the universe as a whole. ​ Create meaning for a meaningless world. It is a commandment given to mankind by humanism. Therefore, the religious revolution, the core of modernity, did not lose faith in God, but gained faith in mankind. Humanism has taught that humanity is the ultimate source of meaning and therefore free will is the supreme authority. Don't wait for some external entity to tell you...

The destination of wisdom.

 The destination of wisdom. ​ I do not divide the world into strong and weak, success and failure. I divide the world into those who learn and those who do not. Benjamin Barber ​ The frame is the window to the mind through which you see the world. point of view on a problem, Three minds towards the world, metaphor for the world, stereotypes about people Everything falls under the category of frames. ​ As a window into the mind, the frame acts as a facilitator that guides us to see the world in a specific direction, but At the same time, they act as censors who limit the world we see. Wisdom is acknowledging limitations. Wisdom starts with recognizing the boundaries between what you know and what you don't know, what you can and cannot do. ​ People think they see the world objectively as it is, but in reality they experience a colored and distorted world through frames. The absolute humility you experience when you face these limitations of the mind due to the frame, this is the sta...

reread

 reread. ​ Reading is sweet. And reading over and over is sometimes even sweeter. Reading over and over can only be immersed in those who have little to immerse themselves in it. "At my age, I don't read anymore. I just read it again." As can be seen from the words of Roay Collar, in fact, reading over and over is a pleasure for adults. However, it is necessary to convince people that it is not only allowed to certain people, but also provides pleasure and benefit to all ages. There are many reasons to re-read, but three. To understand better, we read again. I especially reread philosophers, moralists, and thinkers for this reason, and there's nothing wrong with that. Rather, there are writers who need to read it again with this intention, and there are writers who need to read it again because it deserves to be read for that purpose. In a nutshell, there are some passages that you cannot understand until you read them over and over again. After reading it twenty time...

The first principle of life, a habit.

 The first principle of life, a habit. ​ Habits created are the way we continue to exist. If the change has passed, the habit is what persists beyond the change that produced it. Moreover, when it is said that a habit is only a habit and, by its very nature, has nothing to do with the change that produces it, it persists even when there is no longer such a change... covered up Thus, a habit is not just a state, but also a tendency and a capacity. ​ Habit transforms a volitional movement into an instinctive one. However, in the most volitional movement, it is only the external form and extreme of the movement that the will plans and the understanding represents. On the other hand, between movement in space and the exercise of bodily motor abilities, there is an intermediate zone filled with intermediate terms that first resist, and we are only vaguely conscious of that resistance in effort. We learn to control the amount of effort put in and choose our application points according t...

How many soul ladders do you have?

 perspective. The world is a text, not an interpretation & attitude. We see things in a certain light and interpret the world. The world is revealed to us only in the light of biological, historical, cultural, linguistic, etc. Before the interpretation of the world, the world is unfolding before us as an interpretation, and we live the world interpreted to us, that is, as it appeared to us. In this respect, 'perspective-optics' is our way of life and condition. ​ Nietzsche called Platonism a dogmatic philosophy that denies the 'perspective'. The world of ideas pursued by Plato is, so to speak, a world in which interpretation does not exist. Interpretation exists in our world because, in Platonic terms, 'this world' is neither completely dark nor bright enough. If it was completely dark, there would be no interpretation because you could not see anything, and if it was completely bright, there would be no interpretation because everyone would see one reality,...

Life without philosophy is blind, and philosophy without life is empty.

 Life without philosophy is blind, and philosophy without life is empty. ​ Life is led by many small but self-evident things. But at the same time, our lives are always downgraded by unexpected events. Taking into account the obvious is a work that distances itself from the obvious and at the same time makes it unfamiliar. To see something properly, you have to distance yourself from it. In order to lead a proper life, it is necessary to make life unfamiliar through philosophical thinking. This is because our life itself is something that is always unfamiliar. Learn how to get unfamiliar with life in advance through philosophical thinking, and learn now what you will know later. With the will and determination to live a precious life that will not be repeated again without regrets...
