Good explanation :100: :fire: Despite the fact that, death is the same path to us, we tend to conceive it in many different ways. You wrote that death...
It is book with three classic Spanish novels of XVI century. I did a quick research on internet and the English translations are these ones: The Life ...
Thanks NOS, for understanding what I wanted to share. Exactly, Yukio Mishima saw in a aesthetic view the concept of death. Despite the fact that all t...
You didn't show any argument but I would put some apart of what I wrote in the OP. Japanese see the perception of death more authentic because their c...
True. But it not the general opinion. Death is still seeing as terrible or even a taboo topic. Religion ensured during centuries to “refuse” the meani...
Completely. I would sound as a crazy boy but for me that specific act was so pure and authentic. At least the Nipponese died defending their thousand ...
I do not want to superimpose any culture and contrary from your view, I see the Japanese concept of death more authentic. Remember that in our "world"...
It is not necessarily connected to wars. You can feel stressed for whatever reason in our Western cities. I wanted to point out that while in Japanese...
It is true that we should not follow the same steps of our idols because they had a very different way of life from ours. Nevertheless, I think it is ...
Today is April 23th so Happy World Book Day! here we called it as "Sant Jordi or San Jorge (St. George)" The custom is give away a rose and a book. :f...
Interesting text and points of view. But I guess you end up with a contradictory conclusion: God being the first existent. Previously you have shared ...
Oh boy, you have a very optimistic view of humans. I don't feel myself more powerful than a pigeon since the moment when I have issues as depression o...
A big issue as depression it is not as simple as a "deficiency" on neurochemical serotonin. This is probably just the scientific explanation but goes ...
Interesting question. To be honest, I see it as a barrier. Since the moment that our lives are limited we tend to see everything with limitations in t...
The logical structure itself is made by us. In one side, we have a world or "universe" and, in the other side, we the humans make an order to live on ...
Yep, I am an atheist but I am agree that John Locke's empirical arguments towards God are so poor... §3 "He knows also, that Nothing cannot produce a ...
Sorry to disagree with you but I think that's only the basic principle of primary qualities as John Locke already written about. We all act with some ...
Agreed that it is so interesting the fact that God seems to be weak in terms of randomness. Wether we like it or not, improbability is part of our liv...
Understandable. But what if I do not want to pray at all? I no longer believe in future or luck either fortuna. I think life tend to be difficult and ...
But if we accept this criteria then we have to admit that God is just pure fortuna instead of mercy… and all the suffer or pain suffered by a priest o...
After a month of your post, I was diagnosed with several depression today as you in the previous month. I have not read all the answers of my friends ...
Hello Nick! Welcome to the forum. My name is Javi and I am (closely to the magic day :rofl: ) 25 years old. I am agree with you, it is difficult to fi...
Probably nobody would care but I want to share a random but interesting fact: The next Monday (April 25th) I will be 25 years old. I don't know but it...
Accurate list of books. Nevertheless, I think it is made for a West minded point of view. You shall not forget Asian books and culture, I think it wou...
As with Spain too. It has been a tough decade for us to stay in frozen public salaries, bad quality jobs, and sacrifice a whole generation which lost ...
Hmmm complexity... That's interesting indeed. I am disagree with him in terms that chemistry is more "complex" than social science. I don't want to so...
Sorry, I do not understand Anderson's view at all. So I have to questions: Why does it be hierarchical? I do not see why it is so necessary to put Che...
It is a mistery indeed and that's because it is very complex to achieve. We can say it is upon us what we consider as the path of Aporia (or doorstep)...
I always considered Trudeau as one of the most important Western leaders. What you are saying it is shocking me. I never considered Canada or their PM...
Both Aporia and Knowledge are pretty interesting states of mind but I want to put another element in these two: happiness. This is the real holy grail...
Like it or not I guess it is the system which fits our necessities the most. I don't say we have to live in an economical jungle but in a world where ...
If I want to join some obstacles to others, they need to be logical. We can have a few different points of view but this doesn't imply we can get an a...
I think yes. More than ever. I am living in a generation which is stagnant due to a lot of existential crises: Coronavirus, 2008 real state bubble, an...
180 proof, you are right. I did not use the correct word. Philosophers tend to be influential thanks to their theories and essays. Kierkegaard, in thi...
Wow! I would never imagine tandem like this one. Don't you think it could be contradictory? Capitalism has as a main goal to pursue wealth, so at leas...
