Question for you, I wonder how Mr. Schopenhauer didn't think to include this potentiality in his essay. If man needs a cause in order to exist, and yet they do have some degree of free will, does that not make man the original cause of both man and the world in its entirety? Or does this create a "Turtles all the way down" scenario?
If man needs a cause in order to exist, and yet they do have some degree of free will, does that not make man the original cause of both man and the world in its entirety? I imagine it similar to these terms in the modern world. A team of people create a video game world, and yet I have control over the character they create and the actions it can take with the physics they created and the character and both the character and I get to have new experiences. Even while the developers continue to tweak over time, I notice, yet the character I control does not realize things have changed, to them it is as if things were always that way. We have effects like this, on a small scale something like Deja Vu while on a larger scale there's the Mandela Effect. Could life not be similar? Does the proof Schopenhauer states in this Essay not provide the necessary proof to imply such a thing? If man was once all that their ever was, in the place of a team of people working on a video game, and decided to play a game with itself, in effect. Would one way to do so not be to create man (characters) which are brought into the world, given a portion of the "all" which quickly forgets what they were, god or the "all", in order to have the closest thing to a genuinely unique and always new experience?
You've assumed an abstraction when the "video game" example still obeys cause, effect, stimuli- All that entails is the character being somehow outside the universe, but once more everything about "the video gamers play style and response to stimuli" is entirely conditioned by the relative motives, If we're playing a video game in the here and now, our inputs and sense of the game is just as definite, emerging from factors such as play style, player goal, technical skill, perception, reaction time and knowledge Assuming an outer verse character soul abstraction thing for character provides no additional explanatory power while contriving and confusing the observable phenomenon, it's both unnecessary and inherently illogical, in addition to entirely groundless I believe the 20-40 minute mark span already answers the consideration you gave comprehensively

Love highly. One oddity, this video's audio is only working in the left side.
Ultimately, thanks for posting Schopenhauer audio.
