I love the way you said life changing stuff only to wrap it up with an „anyway“. Haha. You are a good teacher because you make things easier to understand without making your students feel like they are somehow worse or without hope of learning. I feel like an acorn taking the first measures to be able to grow into a tree, and im very grateful.
This is beautiful. Thank you so much for understanding my intentions 🙏
@@julianphilosophyIm amazed by the way the lecture was seemingly cut to size for me. But as you mentioned, this seeming exclusivity probably jumped out to most people.
Hey Julian - just wanted to send an earnest 'thank you' for sharing your knowledge on such a complicated and endlessly frustrating topic. I recently experienced a devastating break up that has forced me to regain my identity and purpose. As someone who rejects many of the toxic norms in relationships, I really value these talks. These videos are tough but so helpful. Thank you!
Love to listen to your lecture..l learn a lot from the lectures I'm from Pakistan
Greetings from İstanbul! I am a 17-year-old Turkish high school student with a weird interest in philosophy. Your lectures really inspire me to learn more and more about everything. Thank you so much for this series!
But what shall we do of this paradoxical problem: that love happens to us when we don’t need it, but when it happens to us it becomes an essential need. How can love subsist given this fact which makes it “set to fail”?
I love how you breakdown everything. You're an excellent teacher. perhaps the best I've had the chance to listen to.
Thank you so much!

In theory, "unconditional love" and "being your authentic self and not changing" sounds really nice, but modern (online) dating kinda screwed that.
Your knowledge is pure enlightenment, I send you love and thankfulness all the way from Mexico 🇲🇽
This is so kind. Truly thank you and greetings from Washington
The timing of this series has been incredible for me personally. I’ve been in the most unstable parts of the experience, and it has really helped me to understand what I’m going through. Thanks buddy.
The Third Body
A man and a woman sit near each other, and they do not long At this moment to be older, or younger, or born In any other nation, or any other time, or any other place. They are content to be where they are, talking or not talking. Their breaths together feed someone whom we do not know. The man sees the way his fingers move; He sees her hands close around a book she hands to him. They obey a third body that they share in common. They have promised to love that body. Age may come; parting may come; death will come! A man and a woman sit near each other; As they breathe they feed someone we do not know, Someone we know of, whom we have never seen.
Robert Bly
As someone trying to better unravel modern masculinity and its online forms, this was wonderful. Can't wait to listen to the previous ones!
Thank you! Truly appreciate it
it’s exciting
Loving this. Alan Watts also has great lectures on the subject of finding love/ yourself by not actively looking for it
Yup, this lecture qualifies for my sex playlist.
i found that the essence of being a man ( because of subjectivity of manliness ) effected and affected who and how i love in the wrong ways
Me and my friend have been trying to solve these epistemic questions like what is masculinity or what is a woman kinda like in a Socratic manner where he would bring his best definition and i would give situations where it can still not be applied and then he would do this my best definitions , i was not ready to accept the postmodern truth that Masculinity doesn't exist so i rather have taken the Wittgensteinian view that "masculinity" the concept is a part of language and hence cant really be defined but can only be shared in the minds of who engage in language.
Thank you Julian, i cant explain how much gratefull i fell for your vídeos and your insights on this Hard philosophical topics , muito obrigado
Thanks for keeping the simple simply complex best RUclipsr
Greetings from Gothenburg, Sweden.
The movie that comes to mind when listening to this lecture is Oliver Stone’s ‘The Savages’
That thing about not remembering love when together and longing for it when separated may well just be about delusionally overwriting the past experience so to justify the self taught story of having been in love even despite the truth being that the connection was made of a very different kind of bond. When strongly pulled towards a person despite ourselves and despite the connection being unhealthy, reacting with Stockholm syndrome might just be a very common coping strategy.
I find solace in hearing someone articulate intelligent and thoughtful positions that run counter to our dumbed down and toxic culture. I really liked that comment on men preying on newly single women. It is such a stupid and deeply unempathetic thing you hear people say, because the cruelty and insensitiviy behind that mindsett is just something.
Thank you so much for such a profound and inspirational lecture! Do you have any articles or books? I want more!
Thank you! I have a recurring ebook subscription service on patreon. The current installment is a guide to Hegel titled “The Night of the World.” www.patreon.com/julianphilosophy
I'm interested in your reading routines, if you have one or why not? How do you portion yourself between rereading the same classics (Kant, Hegel, Lacan, etc.) with new materials you haven't yet seen (secondary sources, journals, new books by contemporary philosophers) and other less philosophical texts (e.g. novels (Proust was mentioned in this video)), or even modern pop culture materials (Liver King, photos of Andrew Tate in videos, etc.)--What's your balance for all these and anything else that you've found?
Great great great stuff. wonderful! Thank you so much for this.
33:00 the question about the catholic relationship between love and sin reminds me of nothing more than Love Exposure (2008), the cult classic by Sion Sono
Especially the last 14 minutes were captivating!! On a side note, your last lecture is not included in your lecture playlist (just saying), it could be helpful for newcomers if you added it. Also, I still find myself baffled as far as the symptom is concerned, at least intuitively it sounds as an exclusively a posteriori phenomenon, but the way you used it as a premise at the end of the lecture seems kinda contradicting to that. Is there anywhere you can direct me to for further reading on this? Thanks, keep it up, can’t wait for more!
Hi! So I realize this is a plug, but my latest ebook is quite literally dedicated to discussing the symptom in the way zizek adopts it from Lacan. It’s currently on my patreon for another month. Thank you also for the kind words about the Ensd of the lecture, and I’ll make sure to get the previous lecture added to the playlist! Thank you for the comment and the time you t took to watch the livestream. Here’s the link: www.patreon.com/jenalineandjulian
Glad to find your channel! Good info
Can we get a book recommendation video?
Those books are making me hungry.
Miyazaki bit reminded me of a quote from John Lennon: Life is what happens to you when you are busy making plans
Truth event - story of my crushes:F Fiona Apple puts it like this:
"I've waited many years
Every print I left upon the track
Has led me here
And next year it'll be clear
This was only leading me to that
And by that time
I hope that
You
Love me"
Starts at 6:10
Ty :)
I love these thank you love from algeria 🥰
Love your videos :)
Greetings from Germany

The Mario example reminds me more of megamind LOL
I had no idea I wanted to watch the whole lecture but now I want to after taking a peek. 👍
If we can find ourselves through the daily repetitions of love why is that futile? And why is that Sisyphean?
That was perfect!!!!
Turn on the automatic subtitles please
Not sure how?
@@julianphilosophy I mean enable, is unavailable
Dont it always seem to go,
That you dont know what youve got till its gone?
Hola! From Paraguay
The Hamster reminds me of John Wicks Dog
Using sophistry to explain "psychobabble" (as you called it) isn't love
which year are u born and where?
So I am autistic and this is an interesting peek into the parallel universe lol
This man says more meaningful and insightful things in an hour than Jordan Peterson has said in his career yet jordy gets the big platforms and opportunities to shape minds. Weird
Also didn't Nietzche die a virgin?
Bro What's the next lecture series?
Haven’t decided yet 😅 but it will be starting soon!
Julian what’s your opinion Jordan Peterson
anyone with critical thinking skills knows he's a pseudo intellectual
@@actuallyondirt except that's not true, he's excellent when it comes to psychology. the only issues are where he delves out of his expertise where he falters a lot. however the people he engages with do not know any better so it's easy for him to dominate everything and it's also the reason why he's so popular.
next time when you answer a question be more objective, I could smell the disdain from a mile away.
@@waynewayne8419 Peterson is a psychologist. He uses Freud in a way that strips psychoanalysis of its 'analysis'. His work is less intellectual, and more self-help. That's fine - but his presentation as someone pursuing an objective analysis of the world, as opposed to a Christian moralist with a very strange and suspicious integration of Nietzsche and Jung and Adam Smith, is annoying. He's a pseudo-intellectual because his thought is riddled with contradictions and that new-age conservative soapboxing which, while capable of (correctly) attributing the horrors of 21st century communism to the underlying ideology, nevertheless fails to attribute the failures of liberal democracy and capitalism to any similar internal mechanism that may be at work. The answer to the excesses of capital is always a return to the dead body of traditional ""Western Judeo-Christianity"", according to Peterson. The problem is always an external infringement on an otherwise 'meritocratic' system of capital (haha). In so many words, his thinking can be described as reactionary.
Honestly, you don't need to really read any contemporary thinkers, such as Zizek, to find an answer to Peterson. You can just as easily go back to Marx's Capital to appreciate how far Peterson falls short as either a defender of liberal democracy, or a critic of Marx and Engels.
@@waynewayne8419 sorry Wayne. I despise Peterson and think he is a bad person.
@@mattyc6001 I mean I don't disagree with you but Peterson remains vastly popular than any of the figures mention with regards to western culture.
One of the problems westerns leftists fail is they think the average individual is interested in all this psychobabble. That's not how it works and people like Peterson understand that. A lot of you come off sounding like robots and unrelatable.
still seems overly ivory tower and removed from the actual world.
