What is nourishment?
That which feeds the will to power, in one way or another.
Properly viewed, as the will is merely a name for something about the impulses, that which increases the metabolic state of an organism, is also that which feeds the energy and structure (which includes every impulse, intellect, etc.) of it.
Everything that is "metaphysical" must also have a metabolic expression; therefore the measure of a nourishing thing is its effect on metabolism, in every way.

"In intoxication, physical or spiritual, the initiate recovers an intensity of feeling which prudence had destroyed; he finds the world full of delight and beauty, and his imagination is suddenly: liberated from the prison of everyday preoccupations. The Bacchic ritual produced what was called 'enthusiasm', which means etymologically having the god enter the worshipper, who believed: that he became one with the god."

By creating something, you direct energy at something tactile, and in doing so you take away energy from numerous other things to which it was and would be directed towards. Thus creation is destruction; all things are one.

Every thing is an instrument, in nature and for nature, and every thing should properly be viewed as such.
Thus every thing that exists imposes itself, and even when it wills to be imposed upon, it is a way of willing to impose itself.
Thus every thing that exists is nature incarnate and thereby sacred.
Thus every thing that exists has no value in itself.
Thus the only way to direct energy is to arrange things - you cannot create energy, nor can you increase energy; you can only direct that which is already there.

"At man's core there is a voice that wants him never to give in to fear. But if it is true that in general man cannot give in to fear, at the very least he postpones indefinitely the moment when he will have to confront himself with the object of his fear..."

"Nietzscheโs doctrine of the eternal return is what makes moments caught up in the immanence of return suddenly appear as ends. In every other system, donโt forget, these moments are viewed as means: Every moral system proclaims that โeach moment of life ought to be motivated.โ Return unmotivates the moment and frees life of ends."

To die like a hero is to perish through desire.
"Why you are here, that you should ask yourself: and if you have no ready answer, then set for yourself goals, high and noble goals, and perish in pursuit of them!
I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and the impossible."

Absolute fear - free from desire presupposes death; and absolute desire - free from fear also presupposes death.
When one fears, it means that one desires to live - one still prefers life over death.
When one desires, it means that one fears that which would have already killed him - had the fear been overcome through desire, one would perish through desire.

But the enlightened mind knows that necessities belong to fantasy.
That which is called a necessity is a product of fear and of desire.
When a man fears, he ultimately fears death.
When a man desires, he ultimately desires to die.
