  • How to Reduce the Pain of Life | Arthur Schopenhauer | Einzelgänger

    How to Reduce the Pain of Life | Arthur Schopenhauer

    The nineteenthcentury German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer observed that nature is driven by an allencompassing force, which he called Will, or more specifically, the WillToLive. This force is unconscious, aimless, and blind, and gives rise to an insatiable striving within human beings. We live our lives grasping, craving, and attaching ourselves to external things, and we feed on other living organisms to perpetuate our own existence, all of which is a manifestation of Will.Thus, the will lies at the root of suffering, as our neverending hunger (and our inability to satiate it) results in an ongoing pursuit of pleasure that never, ever satisfies in the long run. To cope with the misery of life, Schopenhauer took the effort to construct a philosophy to help us attain a state of happiness, which may seem a bit strange as he’s such a pessimistic thinker. But similar to a philosopher and spiritual teacher that lived about 2,500 years ago named the Buddha, Schopenhauer rigorously examined and endured the illnesses of existence before he came up with a cure.After his death, Schopenhauer left us with an unfinished manuscript titled “Die Kunst, glücklich zu sein,” which can be translated as “The art of being happy”, and contains fifty rules for life. This video is based on the fifty rules by Arthur Schopenhauer, and explores how we can reduce the pain of life.Support the channel:

  • The Man Who Hated The World (Animated Short Story) | Einzelgänger

    The Man Who Hated The World (Animated Short Story)

    In a dirty prison cell, there lived a man who dedicated his whole life to isolating himself from the world. As opposed to most prisoners, he wasn’t put there against his will. This man voluntarily lived in a prison cell, knowing that he could walk out anytime he wanted. Nevertheless, he never tried.“Why should I?” he told himself every time this annoying voice tried to persuade him to leave. “The world is a disgusting place,” he uttered. “And in here, at least I’m safe”.He was a loner, without a doubt. But he didn’t choose solitude because he loved his own company. He did it because he hated the world.The Man Who Hated The World is a (motivational) short story about a man who suffers from severe existential angst. On top of that, he is tormented by an annoying voice that tries to persuade him to leave his cell. Even though he hates almost everything that the world has to offer, he does like the sea. Unfortunately, he is too scared to go out and visit.Rather, he enjoys the safety of his cell, and his resolve is strengthened by the misery that overcomes the people around him. But is he truly as safe as he thinks he is?Credits:Written by: Einzelgänger

  • Why Not Needing People is Great | Einzelgänger

    Why Not Needing People is Great

    Not needing people can be a blessing. No matter where we look, when people come together, there’s always some form of turmoil, be it gossip, bullying, people antagonizing each other, or fights. When people depend on each other, it’s the unfortunate part of the deal. But if we don’t need these people, we don’t have to tolerate their behavior; we don’t have to bear the cross of associating with those we don’t like just to get our needs met.Check out the full video: https://youtu.be/FShlGToheno#solitude #loner #notbelonging

  • Become Unconquerable | Stoic Philosophy | Einzelgänger

    Become Unconquerable | Stoic Philosophy

    The ancient Stoics produced a treasure trove of wisdom on becoming unconquerable. They believed that people cannot be conquered by anything external, as long as they don’t give away the power over their faculties. The only way external things can influence us is when we, ourselves, let them. If we feel that something has defeated us, it’s us defeating ourselves on account of it. If we want to become unconquerable, we don’t need to conquer the world but ourselves.
    This video explores Stoic philosophy on how to become unconquerable.Support the channel:

  • Let Go of the Past (Marcus Aurelius) | Einzelgänger

    Let Go of the Past (Marcus Aurelius)

    Marcus Aurelius stated that the past “signifies as much as nothing and is at present indifferent.” It’s not that events that have happened in the past don’t influence the present or that we cannot learn from past events. It’s just that we cannot work with the past, as it’s out of our reach. And often, our memories of the past are scrambled, and ways to verify what exactly happened are limited.The full video is available here: https://youtu.be/LGXRpbDuDGE#stoicism #marcusaurelius #stoicism

    Why Optimism Makes Us Sad | Are We Better Off Being Pessimists?

    Generally, people praise the optimistic mindset, and research suggests that optimism helps us reduce stress and depressive symptoms. Hence, optimism seems to be a healthy coping mechanism for dealing with the future when looking at the scientifically proven benefits.But does optimism also have downsides? Can some forms of optimism even be dangerous? And could it be that, in some cases, we’re better off being pessimistic? This video explores why optimism may not always be the wisest choice and why being a pessimist may be the best move.Support the channel:

  • What If The World is Actually a Prison? | The Philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer | Einzelgänger

    What If The World is Actually a Prison? | The Philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer

    What if this world is actually one giant prison? When the 19thcentury philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer observed the amount of pain that we experience during our lifetimes, he concluded that it’s not happiness and pleasure we’re after, but a reduction of the ongoing suffering that’s an inherent part of existence.When we remove the veil of ignorance and behold the harsh reality we live in, we might start to question, as Schopenhauer does, the idea that, I quote, "this world is the successful work of an allwise, allgood, and, at the same time, allpowerful Being." End quote. For Schopenhauer's view of the world is one of agony - devoid of divine grace - and it has much more in common with a “penal colony” than with the creation of a benevolent deity. Now, seeing the world as a prison sounds like a recipe for personal misery. Why not adopt a more positive, more hopeful perspective? Why look at it with such pessimism?Well, Schopenhauer’s idea comes with a twist. Within his pessimistic worldview lies an outlook that could be very beneficial to humanity. Based on his essay On the Sufferings of the World, this video explores Schopenhauer’s pessimistic outlook on life and reveals a secret to be gained from it.Support the channel:
