Benefits of Philosophy

[BDParticipant 1146]

Hello Gentlemen,

Although it is good to rage a bit when first taking the red pills, I have found that philosophy, and health and fitness have contributed substantially to improving the quality of my life. I have to give credit to this website and all of the members for helping as well, a big thanks to all of you.

Here is a Ted talk explaining a bit of what I am getting at. The video starts out slow but the good content starts to unfold around the 4 minute mark.

I hope this is of benefit to someone.

I always endorse cognitive behavioural therapy that everybody even in daily life.

You must always member that venting internal emotional events like, frustration, anger and sadness is healthier than internalising it even within a rationale.

I also believe that if you have to consider that if the same event never progresses or lesson there is something wrong and it isn’t being addressed.

Emotional development is essential for mental health and well-being. For death and loss there are stages for healthy progression of emotion and the same can be said for everyday life.

Ultimately internalised anger and resentment does not hurt the person you are angry with, it just hurts you.

Same here.

Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?

Definitely raging or letting out the feelings from within is the road to control over your life. You need to scream at the sky.

Alternatively TRADCON would have you internalise your anger then cracking and going on a hard core shooting spree. They don’t see how damaging this is to men and our credibility. It’s half the reason why men to crack and KO some abusive woman.

You certainly need a free space where you will not be judged with other men that know what you’re going through. I suppose that is MGTOW psychology 101.

Thank you for that!

The answer is NO. “I could but I won’t”. Memini murum!

Once you find this key …. you are literally bullet proof. There is very little that can throw you from your course.

Physical is important but mental health is essential.

I am an advocate of Philosophy. I’ll admit, when I was much younger, I didn’t care much for the maxims of Roman orators or the treatises of the Age of Enlightenment philosophers, however I’ve always had a love of reading. The older I grew I was drawn closer to the works of the likes of Seneca, Montaigne, Nietzsche and Schopenhauer to name a few. The works of these men were in a sense our intellectual fore bearers. Much of what they discuss are relevant to our philosophy of what MGTOW represents.

I would encourage every brother of MGTOW to read some works from the aforementioned authors and not just them either. Delving into the men that questioned, reasoned, rationalised and struggled against traditional thought, teachings and conditionings to impose their own will to power (cheers Nietzsche) over their own thoughts and lives is something I find very inspiring – comforting even.

I once read somewhere that, “a room without books is a room without a soul”. The odd physical exercise never hurt anyone either. It’s good to get outdoors and just go for a walk. I always find that after a day of having to overhear the garbage that women call conversation and the pressures of the rat-race; a good brisk walk in the arvo, then dinner and sitting down at night with, “The Consolations of Philosophy” by De Botton brings me some quite needed piece of mind.

Clarity of mind, of body and of the soul lads.

Nietzsche brought death to philosophy with his “will to power” philosophy. It broke philosophy down to a “I’ll do what I want, because what I want is right” mentality.

Philosophy requires a great deal of self sacrifice because it requires one to look past themselves for a moment. One can loosely imply that to look for the truth is an intellectual form of charity in that we place emphasis on something greater than ourselves. Self-sacrifice has and will always be an important aspect of philosophy. It is this seeking something outside of oneself, that has therapeutic effects, as too much self focus can be destructive.

With Neitzche it became a “me, me, me” philosophy with many intellectuals strictly following it because of the fear it provoked through its chaotic/nihilistic tendencies.

An aspect of philosophy is the pursuit of truth, in one form or another, and it is this pursuit of truth(s) that all people have in common. In this respect everyone is a philosopher. However with Nietzche entering the vault of the mass subconscious, people became more obsessed with becoming divine rather than observing the divine.

This is the second part of philosophy which has beneficial effects: observation. People, by their very nature, observe things. It is what we do. We observe things with our physical senses, but we also observe things through our minds. This mental observation lends itself to abstract thinking, a critical component of our creative nature. And without this creative nature being nurtured we become mindless calculators driven only by appetite and ways to appease it.

To be run by an appetite is to be guided by a void, through by which its very nature is to consume with no basis for doing so. “The will to power” consummated the drive to seek the internal void of all men. The will to power is nothing other than the drive to consume everything and everyone, including oneself.

Philosophy will always continue in one form or another, however for it to thrive once again the “will to power” must first eradicate itself.

Self-reflection is part of philosophy and an observation as well. It gives you insight into inner thought and the facility to modify or predict human behaviour for the benefit of ourselves and quality of life of others.

That’s a very insightful way of analysing Nietzsche’s “Will to power”. You’ve given me a perspective that has broadened my own when reading through his material. For that, I thank you.

I don’t quite agree that “the will to power” philosophy brought about the death of Philosophy, but I won’t deny that it had an impact on intellectuals that had themselves chaotic/nihilistic tendencies and that it tended to resonate with those individuals.

Perhaps the concept of “the will to power” is an extreme train of thought that one has to grapple with. Many different schools of thought will often make an individual consider things beyond themselves as well as employing much self focus of which Nietzsche aforementioned concept is a part of.

I do very much like your comments in your second paragraph on self-sacrifice as part of Philosophy. You’ve given me much good insight and another perspective to consider.

Cheers.

I always annoyed about how philosophers would capitalize a random word and then go on forever trying to define it, Basically to waste the intellectual energy of intelligent people. Like morality versus ethics. Who ducking cares, they’re basicAlly the same.

When you name something you have power over it. Names inherently give definition to something so by default a form of creation takes place either concretely and/or abstractly.

That is a problem with many philosophers, they twist natural thought in an attempt to create something rather then let it be evident in itself.

It is a philosophy of misdirected force and in many respects resembles the beasts of the mind, savage forces with raw misused energy.
