    What does Amor Fati really mean? Does it just mean to accept our fates and be stoic? Or is there something else at stake? Time itself and its movement are at stake when we understand that amor fati is deeply connected to the eternal recurrence of the same.

I recalled all the memories of a quite a lot of incidents making me believe i have definitely gone through an experience exact before. I was so weirded out till I came across eternal recurrences.

    I believe that eerie feeling we call deja vu or that we’ve dreamt an experience before it happened, is perhaps just this. When Plato says we remember when we learn, he is saying we are waking up to things we already know but forgot.

    A really fascinating interpretation of eternal return. I enjoyed the mention of Heidegger and agree that the eternal recurrence is interesting when considered in light of Heidegger's work on the imagination and time in his study of Kant. You seemed to allude to how a materialistic view of the person is nihilistic - I would have liked to hear more about that, most definitely! I really enjoyed the video, thank you.

      Essentially yes. If you ever seen lost they start talking about time travel. They say that if you travel back in time you cannot change what happened. Even if you went back to change things, all you are going to do is what always happened.
      Reliving my life, I try and change things. Sometimes I believe I had changed things. The things I believed to have changed just happened yet. By time I realized I haven't changed anything, the moment I believed to have changed passes me by. I miss my opportunity to have made that change.

      @cringetime6315 3 года назад +2

      You can say that's a part of the whole truth.
      But for our philosopher here wants to challenge it, I believe the eternal return is not to say "we are coming back", as much as it is a call for change, an action ahead, and mainly an attempt to be more than just a "MAN"

    I had this experience where i felt all of the versions of self spread across different realities and universes had aligned into one and i felt all experiences from all these versions of self. i was caught in a limbo state where all was existing at once. I felt that every wrong doing or experience i had, not just affected me on this plane of existence but the existence of all versions of self, like a connected web. i was shown that my choices not only effect this world but the next in this eternal cycle of life that is coexisting around me. much like my dreaming world where the bridge to these different realities exist from past and future, but hardly ever my waking present. i was shown the need to align all of self; imagine a row boat with 20 versions of self paddling. and ask yourself what direction you are going? circles? or a common direction?.
    there was this feeling of oneness to everything, like every song and every bit of architecture or literature that has been, I had a part in creating. It did not feel like i was on a guided rail, but choice in fate truly does exist, but the ultimate goal will lead to the same place, which is the fate which i speak of. how we get there is up to the cosmic traveler..
    My belief system sometimes feels contradictory to these philosophical views, from monism, to dualism and Amor Fati type philosophies, i feel they are all part of the same story, just told differently.
    i hold a deep connection to all, and without this experience i had i would not be here in the first place. life is beautiful, the journey is chaos...beautiful chaos.

    I got led to the idea of the eternal return by a video game, actually. I was playing the game Dragon's Dogma, and when I looked at one of the songs in the soundtrack, Eternal Return, I accidentaly stumbled onto the wiki page for Friedrich Nietzsche. After reading it, I noticed that the game itself seemed to be inspired by the concept, with the main character becoming a sort of superhuman (being called Arisen, as if he has ascended, even being called "Kakusha" in the Japanese release, which means "awakened one"), and a repeating story in the second playthrough with a twist at the end (if you are playing offline, that is), proving that your last playthrough has happened before the current one.

    I'm also reminded by these beautiful lines from the song "Better Than You" by Swans:
    "Close your eyes, touch your mouth in the mirror
    That's the wound that is made where the past meets the future"
    And:
    "And I can see clearly through this veil of reality
    And I can remember the feel of your skin
    No, you never knew me and you never will
    When nothing's there, nothing is concealed"

    Hello and thank you for wonderfully explaining Amor Fati and the Eternal Recurrence :) I have a lot of questions, hopefully they won't burden you. I am just discovering philosophy with a more mature perspective than college or highschool and just now have began to truly savour this world.
    I would like to know, if possible, what Ancient Stoic philosopher describes the concept of Amor Fati as such; or was it reffered this way by Nietzsche?
    Is there a resemblance between Alea iacta est and the Eternal Recurrence? If the dice are already cast, is there a point in throwing them oncemore?
    Could you please recommend a starting point in regards to the works of Nietzsche?
    To apply the knowledge from your video: Thank you for your help or silence, since both can happen and one has already happened without yet manifesting. Can't wait to see the answer you already gave :)
    Have a great day!

    • @JohannesNiederhauser
      @JohannesNiederhauser  5 лет назад +2

      Thank you for your comment! In terms of the stoics Epictetus uses the term amor fati. Aurelius didn’t because he wrote in Greek. Note however that Nietzsche is not a stoic and not a slave like Epictetus. The amor fati of Nietzsche has a distinct “modern” meaning and a meaning that we shouldn’t compare with the stoics. This kind of baseless comparing of “theories” and “statements” is at the heart of the emptiness of our age. Amor fati means love of what is necessary and what is necessary is to accept tragedy in our lives, but in a distinct modern sense that all values must be transvalued. In terms of the eternal recurrence of the same the amor fati says that is the loving affirmation of the new heavy weight of humans. After the death of God the tragedy of being human fully sets in. On the other hand this possibility has always already been with us. Nietzsche by the way is also very clear what the result is if we do not properly respond to the challenge of this epoch, then a “total economic management is inevitably in store for us.” These are just some thoughts on the matter. But if there’s anything to take from this then to think “historically” means to think in terms of trajectories and consequences rather than influence and comparison.

      Anais you’re welcome and thank you most kindly for your response! It is not upon me to tell you or anyone else what to do. Yet, if I may speak just about myself, then what I am learning is that we all must push into our most authentic possibilities as far as we can, because that will recur in every moment of our existence. And if we fail to push into our authentic possibilities and fall for the inauthentic fashions of the day then that will recur as well and it will recur forever and will forever be our existence. Accepting this heaviest weight of all is to silently sing the tune of amor fati.

    • @theuniques1199
      @theuniques1199 4 года назад

      Anais Eternal recurrence means exactly what it means, nothing can or will ever change, the universe must be infinite to exist but it can only recreate itself as is or you wouldn't be able to observe and experience space and time because you are time and space. You must come from your own memory to be your own memory and you must be your own history to come from your own history, history and memory are the same concepts because they are defined by being finite and can infinitely replicate themselves which is why time and space can be defined as finite so they must infinitely redefine themselves through each other.

    Question--if we are supposed to love what is about to happen, then why should we want to change it? Why would we want there to be a reversal? If we desire a reversal, then it would mean that we never truly loved the events that were about to happen. Could you expand on this? It seems like either we completely accept the events that are about to happen, OR we wish to reverse/change the events.

    Time is the key to the dimension in which we exist, but do not master our being, thus remaining trapped at its doorstep, glancing inside every now and then.
    There is a clear relation between Amor Fati, the acceptance of fate and the transformation of all, to the Vedanta philosophy too, in the central figure of Shiva, the destroyer illusions and the one who allows creation. Dyonisis, the bearer of life, joy, terror, and death, madness psychic cure and relief is also an archetype pointing to the direction that where life and fate reside is a nonlinear, non-orderly “place”.
    Time is key to understanding, that if something has already happened, all events arise simultaneously, for there is no linear cause to events. Pratitya Samutpaya or inter-related origination illustrates this, but our time trapped minds and language have a very hard time thinking around this, precisely because of our language limitations. Maybe in the next civilization, the Chinese will do better.
    P.s. The Arrival is a non-static movie. One of the best I watched in my whole life. Thanks for the great lecture and insights

    I love your explanation. I will suggest though, that deep truths have layers of meaning, so instead of saying, so categorically, what eternal recurrence is not, to instead point out what it also is, or, what it is at a deeper level. It takes one to no one, my passion gets the best of me sometimes and I do the same thing! 😊

    I’ve never seen any of these TV shows mentioned in the comments. I had a near death experience, and began writing about memories I’m having and can not explain them because they have not happened yet. They are my memories, but in the future, I remember them vividly. Originally a baptist, I’ve come to believe we here on earth are stuck in purgatory because we didn’t get into heaven. Purgatory being the eternal reoccurrence of the same. Where my decisions are predestined and as much as I try to change them they still become true.

We each individually on this earth will die, and be reborn into the same exact life, reliving every single moment forever and ever for eternity, unable to change anything, unable to escape and unable to be certain either.
      Although, sometimes something can happen that reminds for a split second that you are living this life over again for infinity.When you realize this is what is really going on, you immediately come out of it just as soon as you went in. I think that's the devil, playing with us, laughing at us, whispering to us a reminder of our condition, of our eternal torture.
      It could be worse. And when I say that, I truly mean it. This idea might be wrong, and it could be far worse than we could ever possibly imagine.

    Quite an interesting interpretation. That makes sense to me only if one assumes the recycling of our elemental constituents upon death recombine in a form that has some linkage to the parent material source. Whereas, in reality, our constituent elements will be recycled into a myriad of other formats. Both living and inanimate.

    I came across this term, Augenblick, in Heidegger on Nietzsche. Yes it was as I recall it a radical YES, an ACCEPTANCE. It was a kind of CONSOLATION, but of course without the conventional "God" and the conventional Judaeo-Christian "peace." Soon, we have entered an Oriental mindset, a Zen Moment. This kind of thing also comes up in Heidegger's book, "Early Greek Thinking." I now have a renewed respect for Heidegger's "Being and Time," with its new world, so to speak, its Dasein or pre-reflective awareness. So, I'm wondering. Do we find an intimation of this "experience" in Rousseau's Fifth Walk? Where the great French genius invites the reader into the "pure feeling of existence"? And let's not be afraid to use another word, and English word, GRATITUDE.

      Sounds fairly reasonable but it is unrelated. Both phenomena you mentioned are described as "brain farts" when your bran messes up long and short term memory leaving you thinking what you are seeing has already happened before. Anyways, I've come to find amor fati and eternal recurrence as effective ways to live an eventful life with no regrets as a deep thought experiment, that's just me tho.

    I think certain beings were already conducting experiments on humans even as early as the late 1800s and Nietzsche was one of their subjects
    These experiments are probably the reason why he lost his mental faculty later on in his life , eternal return probably begin around the 1800s not prior to that because no one spoke about eternal return until Nietzsche in the 1800s or the timeline of whoever spoke about eternal return first
    Don't ask me the process or how it plays out because this is as far as I know

Rather amor fati “sublates” nihilism, turns nihilism into something else.

    Paradoxically, Nietzsche's Eternal Recurrence if understood literally and not as a thought experiment, is on the one hand, historically in one's life a tempting idea, the idea that all the utopia of one's life is not forever lost, that one might be immortal by simply living the exact same life over and over again, it's almost an incomprehensible enigma, that infact lacks any scientific evidence, and also on the other hand, Nietzsche's Eternal Recurrence is the most nihilistic idea and limiting system ever conducted by a single individual. No one, in his right mind, would want the same things to happen again and again without any free will to choose to disconnect further recurrence, it's nihilistic because it only deals with a finite set of combinations which can bring you regressively not only into the good experiences, but also the suffering, either physical or mental, which only a sane person would reason he would never want. This is very debatable if Nietsczche's Eternal Recurrence is even worth talking about in today's modern world with advances of modern science which clearly deny its validity. If there was ever an eternity i would want, it would be an solipsistic one.

    • @theuniques1199
      @theuniques1199 4 года назад +3

      Jani You clearly don't understand eternal recurrence, it means everything you've written on this page you've written and believed infinitely after and infinitely before, god and science are infinite beliefs because you must first exist before you can believe in science and god or anything but what else could you be if you didn't have those infinite finite beliefs of set memory. You can't prove eternal recurrence because you are the eternal recurrence, you must be your own history to come from your own history and you must come from your own memory to be your own memory. You really don't see your own thoughts, the universe is solipsistic, we are the pieces of time recreating ourselves as the infinite finite universe(space), the universe could only be intelligent of self which means intelligence is an illusion because it never changes but that illusion becomes our infinite reality. The thought(blueprint) must recreate the thoughts(repetitive pattern of thinking) so that the thoughts can recreate the thought.

I have pointed put all the other faults in his theory, as well.

      Mate, that would be way too much information for your brain or you to even handle! Just imagine remembering every single thing or alot of shit that occurred to you! Would be useless and even pointless, as you can never go back to the past, so to speak. Yes, seeing your loved to then see them all die again would probably hurt me in an emotional way, but remember, and yes they will die over and over again, but remember they will be alive, so at least you get to see them and that should happen for an eternity. I'm thinking that we're stuck inside some type of computer as reality is all highly strange!
