I have been a fan of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s since my early days of philosophical exploration as a teenager and it’s interesting to read Emerson Self Reliance now in light of the passing of time and to see just how much it has influence my worldview and my perspective on philosophy.
With that in mind, I thought that in this week’s video it would be nice to explore this amazing essay and to make a Self Reliance summary and review video. Hope you enjoy it and if you haven’t read it before be sure to check out Emerson’s work at the link below!

Without Emerson, there is no Jack Kerouac, Jim Morrison, or Emily Dickinson. Emerson is the American Soul. Good show!

Hi James. Great vídeo, great mind!
In my humble point of view, Émerson captures the balance between the need for structure and some conformity in a way to breed the conditions to ones express the aborígen... The balance between one and social its like Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity, action and thought and others. The key, I think, it's the in between, the mechanics of the Meta, as I call it, metanics and metanistic sistems. That is why I truly think.... Well, I don't Want to bore you. You're the best and thanks for making me feel so smart... 🤠

I am a writer and Emerson and Thoreau are a big reason for that.

Very cool. We are the only ones who can validate our Self.

And this is why I subscribe to your channel James; to have my ignorant prejudices challenged...lol. I have never read Emerson as I had always seen the Transcendentalists like him and Thoreau as precursors to the shallow New Age wankery of the 60's. I can't remember where I got this impression or how valid it is but even if this is true I should not blame a thinker for other people bastardizing their work 100 years later. He also sounds pretty readable so maybe I will give him a go. You presentation here makes his philosophy seem rather anti-social but I guess if it is seen on a psychological or spiritual level it might not be.

Das ultimate purpose of human existence is to manifest our divinity;
God is in us—
He is the light of my soul’s intuition

If a dual natured situation emerges perhaps it's a sign of a diminished point of view that oscillates between two states instead of relaxing and allowing more complexity - that beautiful third option - to emerge. Often people will have a good ideal to strive for, like feed the family, but also limit the way in which they can do that, which can be a bit slippery. Even better than just saying one should be self responsible at this point is to incorporate a deliberate third option like gardening that has self responsibility enhancing properties and you can eat it too.

I took notes from this video. My conclusion: "At last, Emerson basically represents the wild, the rebel, the outcast, the lone wolf, the punk, the hedonist, the free thinker". An obvious inspiration for Nietzsche's philosophy.
