You need money to travel and experience the world. You need money to be on top so you would never have to feel the insecurities due to shortcoming. You need money to retire early and enjoy your old life. You need money to access benefits that either made possible or to increase the efficiency in learning a specific set of skill.

Having been born relatively poor, I want to add that one usually needs some level of physical and financial safety before being able to consider anything else than day to day survival. I think it's borderline impossible to renounce the wordly goods if you've never known how it is when you don't constantly have to worry about money. You really can't imagine it if you come from a privileged middle or upper class background.
I don't think that they're asserting that you could do without money. Once basic needs are met, how much more money do you need ? That is the question.
believe me gypsies in the poorest country in the EU are probably a lot more happier than anyone you can think about at all... They are close to the epitome of poor, yet they save traditions and life better than anyone else. No one is saying you can do with no money... it is more about the way people get higher and higher standards as if these are also their basic needs... as long as you can survive your basic needs are met.
Eastern vs Western parents are opposite of Eastern vs Western ideas lol My Korean mom says " If you don't become a doctor you will never be happy in life." While my California dad says "Follow your dream of becoming an artist and you will be happy about your career choice son."
Sure, but there is a difference between culture and ideas. Just because society is mostly Christian or Buddhist that doesn't mean that people in that society understand it's own religion.
Well technically thats mostly cuz colonisation had entirely changed mindset of east, especially third world countries where in order to survive gaining material wealth is the sole purpose of life, whereas west has gained so much from colonisation that material wealth dont matter anymore.
Assuming your mom is an an immigrant, it probably is due to that. Most immigrants come to the country and readily subscribe to its rules- you gotta make money to be happy. Mostly because they come with little money and so the need to earn stable income is imperative. But someone who is born in Western culture and more privileged because of it (especially being from one of the richest states in the country), is more likely to have a Zen attitude because they don't have to worry so much about money. In the West, the wealthy privileged people are zen and healthy :) Just look at Los Angeles haha
You forgot to mention Western philosophers like Seneca, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Epicurus, Marcus Aurelius, and many others who said happiness was all but conquering, being famous, and so on.
Aristotle was anything but in the same boat as those losers lol. Plato, Aurelius, etc. were all very "Eastern"-ish in their ideals due to their incessant obsession with embracing mediocrity and "the realm of forms". Aristotle was the one to state that all of the obsession with spiritualism was stupid as fuck, and that yes; you *DID* need to achieve greatness in the material world to be a worthy human (The Good Life). It is the Aristotelian outlook which produced the very bedrocks of Western philosophy equating happiness to material success; and thank god it did, because we are fundamentally material creatures before anything else.
@@ogeo.8966 No, everything and everyone is material or it doesn't exist. These "people" you speak of, ask them to sustain themselves without being fed; and you'll see how reliant upon the material world they actually are.
@Eugenio. All those philosophers you mention are before 0BC. Before the current religio-political governments and cultural/social icons. Affiliation to the church is still inscribed in multiple European constitutions. Alexander of Macedonia is refered to as "Alexander the Great" and there are still TED talks about his greatness.
Why compare western political philosophy with eastern spiritual philosophy? It would have been more fair to compare western spiritual philosophy of happiness and eastern spiritual philosophy of happiness such as Christian mystic tradition or even stoicism. The west has produces many sages and holy people.
Indeed. The Rockefellers, Vanderbilts, Carnegies, Astors, Waltons, Kochs, Sacklers, Buffett, Gates, and so many other multi-millionaires-and-billionaires. The great work of the Western way has lead to the final and ultimate form of society - the Corporatocracy.
I'm sceptical about the difference being this stark between "Western" and "Eastern" philosophies on the whole. Were there not Europeans centuries ago who taught selflessness and humility? Were there not Chinese or Mongols who set out to conquer and subdue?
Hello Adam! Yes, you are right, for example the Stoics and many religions. I think, the focus on conciousness and the self comes mainly from the east, though.
U r right about the Mongols and the Chinese. But the east doesn't refer to these 2. India is bid school of thought. Thats where Hinduism came and from which Buddhism came and all these terms that this video talks about is from india
Indeed. This video is a silly comparison of Eastern philosophy and religion and the life of the general public in the West. They should’ve compared it to Western philosophy and religion. You could easily turn it around and demonstrate Western moral superiority by comparing Christianity and Aristotle’s views about happiness to fear and greed of communism and emerging markets in the East.
Agreed. Christianity and modern nihilism are both western philosophies and they contrast each other. Legalism is an eastern philosophy that contrast many popular eastern ones.
I personally never understood this whole West vs East concept. There is too much variety and complexity within each of the cultural parts that it seems to be too simplified a grouping of all the diverse and intricate cultures that live within them. The concept seems obsolete at this point we should be able to explain things in more depth than just East or West. It’s 2022.
Although what you’re saying isn’t wrong, it seems the video is using a common archetype that have characterized each civilization. This is also backed up by scientific research.
@@SuperTheafrican if may be a good conversation starter but the archetypes they used are only feeding into what is typically perceived as East vs West which I have never been a fan of. Because I am from South Korea, supposedly that makes me “from the East”. I never felt like it was ever accurate when someone was making a point by saying because I am Asian and therefore I must think the way I do. Tell me how many countries/languages you think there are in the East. Looking at countries like India or China or Vietnam in comparison to South Korea, they seem to be uniquely different with their own sets of values and somehow all of us are still grouped as a one huge place East. My suggestion is to start by looking at smaller regions or a country and try to learn about the culture and what people value. That would be a more interesting way to understand culture.
@@pruthvinedunuri2983 I’m just not impressed by either the concepts. They did not even talk about philosophies of happiness that exist in the West. They also did not consider the full spectrum of history of East where people sought happiness through expanding and invading. It just doesn’t convince me at all. Sorry!
I think the answer, as it often does, lies in moderation of both. We should strive to attain enough to be comfortable but also strive to make sure our minds are at peace enough to enjoy said comfort
I thought the purpose of this video was to implicitly show how both regions philosophies complement each other and have more value together than alone.
One of the Buddhist teachings is that apply these daily teachings and see how they work out for you but to never be afraid to change and questioning things. He calls it. Finding the middle way.
It's true - working on the mind needs to be something we do. And it requires consistent practice. I've recently come to terms with losing touch of my mind and neglecting it, almost thinking as though my circumstances in life now were the same difficulty, when they are not.
I’m Western. Our culture has a long and rich tradition of knowing deep down that material wealth is ultimately empty. It is also obvious that eastern countries have been in hot pursuit of material wealth in recent decades… just like the west. As was said above, you are ignoring the spiritual tradition of the west and looking only at its political/economic activity. You ignore the political/economic activity of the East and look only at its spiritual tradition. It is a false comparison. Look deeper.
I was about to comment on the same thing. It's ultimately about how we humans as a collective are losing touch with our ancient wisdoms of life. The more "modern" we become, the more likely it is that we will lose touch with spirituality and religious practices. Atheists often don't see anything else beyond what we have in life at the moment, so many are desperately striving to make the most of life, as most of them believe that there's nothing else beyond death. It sounds like a good advice, to live life to the fullest every day and make the most of it because there supposedly is no second chance. Either we succeed or we fail. However if we fail in life to obtain and experience the things we want, thoughts can get very depressing.
West is a pretty broad term though, for instance stoicism is a “western” philosophy that’s very similar to the eastern ones you mentioned and it was advocated and popularized by (among others) super rich people like Seneca and Marcus Aurelius 😊
People just don't get it. The author here is using a euphemism to get the Westerners to reflect on their criminal history of colonialism. No matter how many hermits or saints among them, the West as a whole has subjugated the rest of humanity to slavery, subordination, and even distinction through opium & slave trade, residential school, and genocide...etc. No matter how you whitewash it, these are kept in the memories of humanity forever.
@@leonal522 That’s an interesting way to see things and a rather interesting topic. There are not westward expanding empires in history besides the Mongols in guess huh? That is not to say the Eastern cultures / nations were peaceful by any means, they have been fighting for domination forever too, but not much out of their respective “borders” so to speak, I wonder why… 🤔
@@ioannisaliazis The Ancient Mongols and recently the Japanese is atypical amongst Asian cultures, just like the few rare stoic tradition remnants sparingly dotting the West such as the Swiss. The Japanese exception can be explained partially by a quote from Kakuzō Okakura's The Book of Tea (1906): "Those who cannot feel the littleness of great things in themselves are apt to overlook the greatness of the little things in others. The average Westerner, in his sleek complacency, will see in the tea ceremony but another instance of the thousand and one oddities which constitute the quaintness and childishness of the East to him. He was wont to regard Japan as barbarous while she indulged in the gentle arts of peace: he calls her civilized since she began to commit wholesale slaughter on Manchurian battlefields. Much comment has been given lately to the Code of the Samurai, - the Art of Death which makes our soldiers exult in self-sacrifice; but scarcely any attention has been drawn to Teaism, which represents so much of our Art of Life. Fain would we remain barbarians if our claim to civilization were to be based on the gruesome glory of war. Fain would we await the time when due respect shall be paid to our art and ideals." The legacy of the Mongols on the other hand is mostly carried on by today's Russians. Of course, to the West, they all are one and the same.
@@leonal522 not sure we can call the Japanese peaceful by any means, or uncivilized for that matter. I think it’s potentially overly simplistic to characterize the west as war mongering brutes and the east as peaceful and cultured, no? It’s a trend it seems of late since in the west we have kinda “killed our god” and the eastern philosophy is seeing a renewed interest because it’s easier to find spirituality in the foreign than to look within, right? In the end we are all one and the same.
@@leonal522 China is as 'Eastern' as it gets and they have territorial disputes as we speak, all over the south china sea, not to mention Tibet and Taiwan. Inner peace isn't exclusive to Asia, and subjugation/ territorial warfare isn't exclusive to the West.
peace is the basic tenet of eastern teachings, then how can you achieve that when youre always surrounded by people while doing your job? you always deal with people when you do wordly things and people are the modern stressors of our time.... can do western while being eastern.. work life balance by not being ridiculously ambitious and greedy
Sorry but i can't think of a western philosopher that said that one can find piece by materialism. Love the rest of the video and definitely agree with the message
i think they moreso mean the general Western consumerist culture rather than any specific philosophers. especially not any ancient western philosophers
@@justavine487 You realise hedonists were not the majority and was a simple current like many others in philosophy for its time? As someone pointed out there were materialists in Eastern parts too.
To the *incredible person* seeing this, I wish you all the best in life❤ don't over blame yourself, accept things and go forward. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn the skills needed and get after it, all the keys to a happy life is in your hands. Keep pushing.
I don't see on what basis this all comes from. You have western/Christian monks and you have eastern/Asian tycoons and billionaires. If this video would have focused on the difference between material and spiritual focus of happiness in the world that would have made somehow sense. All in all a good idea with some bd execution
The base is ridiculous prejudices, childish topics and a lack of knowledge of Western thought. It looks like a video made by a not very smart teenager. It's embarrassing
I think when saying Eastern it really means Budhist. But Buddhism is not the sole religion and way of living in Asia. Buddhism is indeed about understanding the mind and inner work, while in the West through religion or for whatever other reason, we tend to associate happiness to achievements. Of course this is not universal.
@@alonespirit_1Q84 Exactly. As the artist Jenny Holtzer set out to demonstrate in the 1980’s, for every seemingly profound aphorism that affirms one course of action, there will be another seemingly profound aphorism that affirms the opposite.

"The Irish Origins of Civilization" by Michael Tsarion shows an example. All Original Arian texts stressed peace and harmony. Western traditions were docile until the infiltration by the "bad" Phoenicians.
It’s a shame that “the west” is being represented and understood by it’s superficial variant, and “the east” by it’s deepest one. As if there were no greed and thirst for power in the east.. The comparison should be made between the west’s and east’s equivalent counterparts; if we use buddhism for the east, than it is not fair not to use Christianity for the west. And after we’ve done so, we will find that the “western” theory of happiness is far, far, faaaaar from greed or power.. St Paul said somewhere “Far be it from me to boast with anything, but if i should boast, let it be with my weakness. (…) ,for when I’m weak, I am strong!”… That is a very small part of what is the western deepest idea of happiness, so it should be properly represented, to avoid any confusion.
It feels like someone took a class in Buddhism, read Nietzsche (grossly misinterpreting him, like the Nazi Party did) and Machiavelli (also misinterpreting him) on the side, and then used those as a basis on which to generalize the whole of Eastern and Western philosophy.
@@jacobp1277 lol. Christianity is also an eastern religion. In fact all the major world religion, including Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism are originated from the East (Asia)
@@aap9490our modern understanding of what is the west is because of Christianity you fool. The Egyptians and Persians have a lot in common with us and should be considered western. What does Egypt and China have in common with each other?
I appreciate the coverage of these Eastern perspectives but I'm disappointed about the lack of diverse Western philosophical traditions on happiness, which here is instead boiled down to "world domination"
So why do all the immigrant parents of my Asian (mostly Chinese) friends only care about brand-name handbags, BMWs, paychecks, grades, and prestige-conferring universities?
Someone once said: Happiness is an attitude, you can either be happy and strong or sad. The amount of work is the same.” As we must work to be happy or sad, it is important to know that happiness is stated outside the body, mainly in the western culture toward “material world”. On the contrary, in the eastern culture happiness is related to joy, the feeling of accomplishment, no matter how materially rich you are or not. Great video. LOVE, LIVE, LEARN n LAUGH. MAC

There's also a split in Eastern philosophy between Buddhism/Taoism and Confucianism. Buddhism and Taoism emphasised conquering the mind, being at peace with yourself and not needing material wealth to be content. Confucianism put more emphasis on societal obligations and collective responsibility, which probably also contributed to modern Asian cultures being more interested in material wealth. Many of the Western philosophies in Ancient Rome and Greece such as Stoicism were all about finding inner peace and conquering the mind. There were also philosophies in Ancient Greece that were about living more in accordance with Nature.
This is a brilliant clip that hopefully would lead some people to investigate that path further and deeper. I was born in Russia and am culturally Russian although inherited some eastern culture’s features from my parents. I often use that perspective to actually acknowledge the middle way that Russian people subconsciously take between these two combining and walking the think red line. This is so because of the long history of development of Russian civilisation precisely between east and west and not having any ways to defend (no mountains or seas) and dealing with everybody openly, mixing and integrating. Even in this clip I’ve been seeing the middle scope between the two. So nice we are all different)

west and east are broad terms. Stoics does not give importance to money. The bible says "Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions" Luke 12:15.
But both cultural “philosophies” had warmongers and greed. Even now. Any religion or thought can be co-opted for evil selfishness. And both have helped others find contentment. It’s what works for you. Just don’t allow yourself to be stuck in one way of thinking.
The issue here is to approach Hinduism and Buddhism as theology that mirrors in functionality, Judeo-Christian doctrine. They do not operate similarly and so to assert that they have produced negativity is to ignore the fact that these systems of thought never laid out via any form of tenet, right or wrong. As the video states, the philosophy focuses on the mind and control of that mind, negativity being the inevitable outcome produced from a lack of control. And so morality, that is so often the focus of Judeo-Christian religions, becomes the biproduct of productive action. Therefore, this is a fluid concept of morality that recognizes all positive and negative outcomes as aspects of a broader lived reality, warmonger and monk being manifestations of thought not points levied in a system of sin.

0:10 The idea stated here is in direct contradiction to Platon's idea of happiness who is portrait at 0:10 as a representative (at least i assume that this is supposed to be Platon) of this tiny fraction of so called western ideas he never represented. In fact happiness through a balance of attributes as found by platon is the dominating school of thought of western idea of happiness as Platon was picked up by scholastics in the middle ages and christianity was dominant for the longest time also teaching modesty and the morality of being materially poor. The aquisition and accumulation of wealth was for the longest time viewed as amoral despite being a major driving force of euopean history. Right from the start this video is confused. Won't keep watching it as the "eastern idea" of happiness probably is as distorted or oversimplified as the western one. If there can even be an essence of so called western ideas this isnt even a likely characterization. What do you mean with western thought? Of european origin? Why call it western if western specifically is a cold war and post cold war era term making little to no sense outside of this historic time frame? Besides capitalism europe also birthed communism and various other ideologies. Later european ideologies were in part influenced by "eastern" philosophy as well making a strict seperation of the two to be questioned. In the first 15 seconds such grave mistakes where made that i am sure the world would be educated better by no information rather than by information distorted to a degree as by this video.
I would 100% agree there are things that were missed and judging them as “western” and “Eastern” just makes me feel like it’s either rushed or propaganda
I think their main aim wasn't to compare west vs east. They tried to share a message which is very good. The title or comparison may be full of basic mistakes. Hovewer, the message given here is very true and must be cared more.
Your qualms with the premise of this video requires that you crucially overlook the much more plentiful philosophical and ideological concepts of dominance and empiricism in Western society. I agree that Western as a term has it's limitations however upon examination of the world as we know it today, the abyssal line that distinguished the Western world from that which is the Eastern (a term itself coined by Western oriental thinking) is observably different, if not in its subjugation to 'Western' colonial powers, then its treatment as lesser entities by Western institutions of thought. To observe that difference today is to observe the many prevalent philosophies of expansionism, anthropological race theory, and empiricism, all of which are informed by Judeo-Christian principles and values. You raising an issue with such labels doesn't work when such labels were created by the Western world to promote its superiority over the rest of the world. Therefore yes, there are many redeemable concepts in Western philosophy BUT they must be considered within the context of Western thought at large and the outcomes of such thought, which has proven to be greedy, vain, lustful, and inhumane, not through theoretical discussion but through observable outcome. P.S. Capitalist Europe did not simply 'birth' communism and relevant ideologies, these were reactionary movements forged in the neglect and immoral treatment of the subjugated plebian class of European society. What you further fail to recognize is that such movements towards better social and political practice do depend heavily on thought that mirrors 'Eastern' philosophy, if they are not inspired by said systems of thinking.

Oh this is really a one sided video. There are a lot of western thinkers like The stoics, Nietzsche, Schoppenhauer, and a lot more which also belived in a happiness which cant be found by power and other worldly things.
As a person from east, what you say is very true. Stoicism, absurdism, existentialism are very interesting western philosophies. There are nasty parts in both philosophies, in the east and the west. I find wisdom in both the east and the west since intelligence and wisdom is universal among humans and its not geographical. This video is very biased. I mean differentiating the world philosophies as eastern and western is wrong and will lose accuracy.
Money is important to a certain degree. Peace of mind is absolutely important but in the modern world it is near impossible to achieve peace of mind when you are homeless, cold and hungry. I like a balance life between these 2 ideas of happiness. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is another important point of reference.

I like your output SoL, but the East/West dichotomy (as laid out in this video) is a little shakey. You only need look at work/life balance in Japan, South Korea, and also (to an extent) India, versus Nordic countries and it completely breaks down. You may say these countries are suffering under the weight of an especially rigid, routinised version of Western capitalism, but this misses deep cultural currents that have facilitated, even fostered, a hugely distorted focus on the material, away from the spiritual (or more correctly, maybe, the abstract) in many contemporary Eastern countries.

It's more like Western materialism vs Eastern spirituality. Reminds me of the Bruce Lee quote- " A man who is empty on the inside must decorate himself on the outside".
*Nietzsche's whole point was will-to-power and using your capability to enforce yourself on the world so you could get what you want to be happy...and he killed himself out of despair and depression*
Well done. With over 50% of Americans taking antidepressants while enjoying one of the highest per capita income, it tells that money doesn't bring peace and happiness. Eastern philosophy doesn't see life as just this life, it sees a soul taking a life form over and over again. That large scale view diminishes the value of what we get in this current life. That is how they undermine material prosperity that is limited to just this current life.
Where did you get that over 50% figure? Nowhere online says anything close to even 50%, the cdc number is 13%. Why lie about this when you can easily google the results?

The inclusion of cultural perspectives on happiness enriches the conversation, acknowledging that different societies may have unique approaches to well-being.
Western philosophy isn't inherently Christian. Christianity itself is an Eastern religion and it's unfortunate that the western world treats it as if it's not Eastern in its origin. A lot of people think of Eastern spiritual practices as merely limited to Buddhism or Hinduism. It couldn't be further from the truth.
The general mistrust of anything "Eastern" in these comments shows why racism against Asians is such a big problem in Western societies, in both America and Europe. The West will appropriate anything that interests them (Yoga, meditation, food) while not only giving back no credit, but turning back and condescending/looking down on those same cultures. The West has always had a colonial mentality that has bred hypocrisy, racism, and narcissism. It is an issue with the culture.
People in the comments generally hinted different thing than mistrust of anything eastern they are generally saying that western philosophy is about knowing yourself and your emotions therefore they said video is misinformation about west and propaganda for the east
West and East can learn from each other. In Western philosophy, Socrates Plato Stoics and so many others have expressed remarkable ideas. To praise one, we need not to belittle others.
Well presented video, but I don't really feel like it does things proper justice. Like many in the comments have mentioned, the western philosophy of stoicism is a lot like what was described in this video. Which has become very popular amongst westerners for the past few generations. Additionally, from my standpoint, western ideas of happiness comes from doing what you feel is right for you. Whilst eastern ideas of happiness, in addition to what was mentioned, is finding happiness in family.
A lovely idea, too bad it will never be implemented. People in the west have been warned against our materialism for centuries and very few people have actually listened.
I think there is a subtle movement towards mental health in the west. but keep in mind there are a number of so called spiritual eastern nations that are just as materialistic and aggressive towards other nations.
Thank you all for recommending Dr Akunda the great spell caster to the rest of us on here. If not for your recommendation I won’t have found help. He specializes in other stuffs like, lotto numbers, Abundant money, Bring Ex lover back, Banish Evil spell. you can be lucky too.
This ain't even a West vs East thing. History shows us that the East engaged in self-preservation and power displays just as much as those in the West. And plenty of western individuals came to the same conclusion as those eastern individuals who decided to exit the rat race of self-preservation by becoming monks. In the West we had monks too, just under the title of a different religion.
How can we achieve a good mind without good health, food, and quality of life? I can lie to myself to make me feel better, but it doesn’t make my existence any more less in peril. Interior state of happiness and exterior are both equally valid and thus must learn to work together to achieve harmony.

This video is not about the current situation, it's about the philosophy. Ofc many people in the West are now following Eastern philosophy as well. This isn't about the people at present, more about the concept/theory of the Western vs Eastern philosophy. Also, lot more people in the East still follow these principles

John Locke has a chapter entitled Of Power in his book Essay Concerning Human Understanding. He does not say the way to happiness is collecting wealth and gaining a high position in life. He asserts that the secret to happiness is making the right choices, where it was necessary to make any.
Meet Dr Akunda he will help you to solve your problems. Need help I can recommend you to a very and power spiritual man who can help you because you can't do this your self .....I have tried no result But this powerful man helped me manifest money and made my wishes come through by getting my Ex lover back too.
For lot of people who got this video little distorted here is the version. The eastern philosophy doesn't discourage materialistic life altogether, it preaches a balance.. It advocates awareness towards certain elements of mind like greed, jealousy, insecurity which can lead to crave for materialistic things beyond requirement. It doesn't preach renouncing family life and following path of spirituality.. It preaches to live life with awareness and acceptance... To live life with peace and happiness at the centre of our core being...
My point of view is that both at extreme are bad. If you focus too much on the outside, you will be an asshole and, sooner or later, feel absolutely empty. But if you focus too much on the inside, you are very likely to ignore that, no matter how enlightened you are, you are still a human, and as a human, you have human necessities , it's dangerous to ignore that we, as humans, need things to survive and live a fulfilling and meaningful life, things such as food, a house (I don't mean a mansion in Beverly Hills, I mean a place to live and feel safe), water, exercise, meaningful relationships and more. The sane point is when you focus enough on both. Working on yourself, but without ignoring that you are still a human, and as every other human, you have necessities.
*The eastern perspective requires one to give up all materialistic sources of happiness and concentrates on building happiness from within and the closest any group has gotten to that are the Jains not the Buddhist. There are jain monks who don't wear any clothes and eat only bare minimum food.*
