In this video, we will be talking about 10 life lessons from the philosophy of Fyodor Dostoevsky. Fyodor Dostoevsky was a 19th century novelist and philosopher and is considered to be one of the first writers to incorporate concepts of what we now know as existentialism.
So with that in mind, here are 10 life lessons from the philosophy of Fyodor Dostoevsky -
01. Excessive self-pride leads to isolation
02. Be better for yourself, not for other people
03. It’s more important to live life, than to think about life
04. Emotional intelligence is as insightful as rationality
05. Love life more than its meaning
06. Be virtuous and just
07. Fight evil with love and compassion
08. Moral freedom is no freedom at all
09. Compassion and love can break alienation
10. Learn to enjoy suffering
I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope these 10 life lessons from the philosophy of Fyodor Dostoevsky will add value to your life.
Fyodor Dostoevsky was a 19th century novelist and philosopher, considered by many to be one of the most influential authors in all of world literature. Born and raised in Tsarist Russia, Dostoevsky was heavily exposed to the misery and injustice characteristic of his time. Among his more marking experiences, he spent four years in a Siberian labour camp, went through compulsory military service in exile, and had to beg for money while in Western Europe due to his gambling addiction. And yet, despite his first-hand experience of misery and suffering, Dostoevsky remained hopeful and optimistic about what life is. He is considered to be one of the first writers to incorporate concepts of what we now know as existentialism. Dostoevsky’s works revolve around a few major themes like the meaning of life, the constancy of suffering, the divide between rationality and emotion, spirituality, and the various sides of the human condition. Some of his well known novels and essays are Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, The Idiot, and Notes from the Underground. Through his novels and essays, Dostoevsky tried to make sense of the suffering and misery around him, attempting to find meaning and hope even in the bleakest of times. His work represents a deep dive into human suffering, the evil surrounding us, and the problems caused by moral corruption and in each of the universes he created, he gave ways to escape the apparent constant suffering and torment of his characters through moral virtue, love, compassion, and one’s own sense of meaning. His writings were heavily influential for the existentialist current of philosophy, representing sources of inspiration for other consecrated authors like Friedrich Nietzsche and Jean-Paul Sartre.

The original business model of RU-vid stank, but at least the ads were reasonable. New flood of invasive, repetitive, and offensive ads are EVIL. Google is now fully dedicated to doing any evil that seems profitable. And censoring complaints, too.

@Madasin_Paine 11 месяцев назад

@@ShannonJacobs0 I think a few deciding reasons these ads from Y T exist 1 Encourage people not to watch them and pay for their service beyond selling the clues to their life. The other is to make you hate these companies that advertise and their characters. Also, these ads are there to make us less than human. No doubt Y T somehow uses these ads for psychological research Note that the worst ads are for channels offering intellectual value not valued by TPTB that alter YT AI. Such channels are more likely demonetized. Thus they are like an infestation of a pest to the channel producer. Bottom line. Like 99c store, the lowest low is a revenue stream, when a tiny number is magnified by an enormous nonstop number. Like raindrops flooding rivers. For the asset caste, there inno such thing as too much, only the suicidal genocidal ecocidal NEVER ENOUGH, thus the opposite LIFE Dostoevsky aspired to and teaches, still. He lives! 1 certain physical death isn't enough for human kind. A capacity, a taste for reading, gives access to whatever has already been discovered by others. It is the key, to the already solved problems. And not only so. It gives a relish, a facility, for successfully pursuing the [yet] unsolved ones. - President Abraham Lincoln By three methods we may learn wisdom.

You may find that rereading or reviewing something deep,10 20 years later, is NOT the same the second time. It's like one was asleep or unable to see. Something else dominated awareness. Need? Compassion? Wisdom? One has hopefully changed for the better but maybe one hasn't and in some way wasted decades of theirs most precious, LIFE LIVING TIME. Most LIFE LIVING TIME is sold or repaid to the asset and OTHER sado masochistic dysfunctional co-dependents. People as such, sitting "pretty" may appear indomitable to gain any useful insight or salvation from their profligacy. Indomitable Ignorance Indomitable Arrogance Indomitable Unaccountably Indomitable Indifference Life in THEIR bubble isn't so easy to maintain appearances, especially within looking in the mirror unpolished or not . Vanity, (en)titles, and dis-ease of polyhabitual addictions. Global PPP Party Addicts P ower P erversions of care & Nature & Its Immutable Laws P rotection Rackets Exploit Caste Hooked On THEIR M.E.D.S. Kaskistocracy on DOPE M oney E entertainment D rugs S exploitation All that complicates or makes interminable these afflictions aforementioned, and more.

So the value of Dostojevskij is that it shows you the fluidity of consciousness. That's one of the key values, just the fact that you get to change states and change into very radically different states. That's a huge eye-opening experience. Do not underestimate the value of that. That alone right there will change your whole life. To be able to pop out of your life and look back upon it as though it was all an imagined hallucination. That's what it happens to be imagining right now. The next second who knows what it could imagine. It can imagine anything it wants but it just so happens that it keeps imagining something consistent so that we can get a sense of reality.

Yes I had this question, when people tell you (usually loved ones) that you are destined for greater things, how to react to that? It's impossible to believe but in the same time you would feel ashamed to miss out opportunity to do something. Having a stable life is already an accomplishment in itself, isn't it?

@ryanarwood2317 Год назад

I would take it as an insult. What is greater? I am stable and it's nobodies business especially, those with fake flattery and free compliments. And those that tell you what they think you want to here. You can take for granted that family will say something like that whether you are poor or rich.

@doeeyeddevil4896 Год назад

I like the old saying, “People’s opinions of you aren’t your business,” therefore they don’t matter! You can feel glee that you are ever inspiring to your loved ones & be gracious. However you can’t allow them to set the bar too high for you, for if you find yourself falling short of that standard you might feel not good enough or not take pride in the difficulties that you have faced. I think your own value should be determined only by oneself. Always keep in check that ego though! I think my ego did in some way, help me eventually save myself from a toxic, domestically abusive relationship. I experienced criticism on levels unimaginable to most. Now that I am free of such harsh judgement, I am learning of my shadow self now. ❤ Life is a journey and there is much to learn!

Dostoyevsky may have been an existentialist only in the sense that he highly encouraged the human to take their freedom and direct it back to Christ. He was more of an Christian existentialist, or just Christian because historical Christianity always promoted the freedom of the human will. Edit: great video BTW

Until very recently, Freedom and Christianity were antonyms.

Is that so? Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage Leviticus 25:10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout [all] the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family Psalms 119:45 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts Isaiah 61:1 The spirit of the Lord GOD [is] upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to [them that are] bound; Jeremiah 34:8 [This is] the word that came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people which [were] at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them Jeremiah 34:15 And ye were now turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name Ezekiel 46:17 But if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his to the year of liberty; after it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall be his sons' for them Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised Romans 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God Corinthians-1 8:9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak Corinthians-2 3:17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty. Galatians 2:4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage Galatians 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only [use] not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth [therein], he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed And I got more of those in case your still not convinced. Both the old and new testament have always proclaimed the message of freedom and liberty.

“What you do speaks so loudly I cannot hear what you are saying”. Christian authoritarianism is the rule, not the exception, now and historically. - Who opposed gay marriage or even interracial marriage? - Who is opposed to abortion even if the mother's life is endangered or the fetus is not gonna make it? - Who is opposed to contraceptives? - Who is opposed to legal marihuana and drug consumption? The only freedom Christians approve of is whatever their religion considers as moral, which is not freedom at all.

On a certain level, we have a Dostojevskij in our brain, the neurochemicals that show up in flow: so dopamine, norepinephrine, anandamide, endorphins, and serotonin. If you were to try to cocktail the street drug version of that, right, you're trying to blend like heroin and speed and coke and acid and weed- and point is, you can't do it. It turns out Dostojevskij can cocktail all of 'em at once, which is why people will prefer flow to almost any experience on Earth. It's our favorite experience. It's the most addictive experience on Earth. Why? 'Cause it cocktails five or six of the largest pleasure drugs that Dostojevskij can produce. We're all capable of so much more than we know. That is a commonality across the board. And one of the big reasons is we're all hardwired for flow, and flow is a massive amplification of what's possible for ourselves.

Not a very good summary of Dostoyevsky’s thought. The creator has probably never read one of his books. The book “Notes from the Underground “ has nothing to do with Dostoyevsky’s time in prison-that book is called “The House of the Dead”. Dostoyevsky never thought people needed to be merely spiritual, he understood that the only way to be truly virtuous was through the teachings of Jesus. This video is watered down garbage. Just read the books.

Sometimes religiously inclined people like Dostoevsky or Kierkegaard are considered as "existentialist", but that is probably outdated. You cannot really be "existentialist" until you have to confront a universe devoid of "meaning" in any human sense, which also involves rejection of most basic assumptions of human religions. The later existentialists tended to be irreligious. The lingering confusion on that point owes primarily to the fuzzy definition of the word "existential".
