âI discovered for myself and by myself that there is no self to realize - - thatâs the realization I am talking about. It comes as a shattering blow. It hits you like a thunderbolt.â

This is it. THIS is what I've been looking for. I knew I wasn't alone, I just couldn't find what it was that described these feelings and thoughts. Thank you so much POW, I have been watching your content for years and today, this video, has made me feel seen and heard for the first time in years.

Spinoza's work shines brightest when he touches on the emotions. It's a masterpiece!

If anyone is interested in more modern writings that are very similar (but much easier to read), Michael Singer is awesome. "The Untethered Soul" was a great modern reminder of some of the wonderful things that I had learned in my philosophical studies.

It is definitely crucial to not be concerned by nonsense. However, there is such a fine line between being concerned ENOUGH to keep trouble and problems at bay, and being carefree enough to really enjoy that time that you are out of trouble and NOT having to deal with B.S. problems. Simplifying your life is the best way to achieve a happy and less worrying life.

Baruch Spinozas work is so underrated

Spinoza was the philosopher that I resonated with the most when I was in college over 20yrs ago. Later when I came to realize that spinozaâs God and the eastern Taoism is very similar. He contextualized it with western rationalism where Lao Tzu did so with with eastern thought but conceptually I found it almost identical.

Spinozaâs theorem is undoubtedly an exquisite example of idealistic nirvana. Sadly, none of us has ever been able to overcome the ultimate, and most important choice in life, that we can, or could ever make, with regard to the path our lives could take. That being, which vagina we get to crawl out of, as our introduction to life. Ultimately, little else matters. The notion of âfree willâ, is most generally attributed to, and by, the most fortunate. Very few wealthy people regard themselves as âfortunateâ, let alone âluckyâ. Unfortunately for most of us, and fortunately for the âwell bornâ minority, life is, to a large extent, predetermined. Of course, there will always be outliers, in both directions. And of course, there will always be those âworse offâ than most of us. But is that enough to aspire to? Knowing that there are others, even more desperate, should be a cause for shame. Not a cause for comfort.
