Meditative frenzy in awe for the chaos of earthly passions, yearning toward the mysterious
The Nietzschean Dawn (English)

Nietzsche was a German philosopher whose ideas on morality, culture, and human nature continue to inspire and challenge us to this day. This channel is dedicated to delving into his works, including 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra' and 'Beyond Good and Evil,' to unravel the complexities of his thought and engage in lively discussions with fellow Nietzsche enthusiasts. Whether you are a seasoned Nietzsche scholar or someone new to his philosophy, this channel provides a space for intellectual stimulation and exchange of ideas.

"What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger" (out of context) is a destructive and disadvantageous thought. I can tell you countless possibilities which will make you weaker and not kill you

"A typically morbid being cannot become healthy, still less make itself healthy; for a typical healthy person, conversely, being ill can even be an energetic stimulant to living... This, indeed, is how that long period of illness appears to me now: it was as if I discovered life anew, myself included; I turned my will to health, to life, into my philosophy...
The years when my vitality was at its lowest were when I stopped being a pessimist: the instinct for self-recovery forbade me a philosophy of poverty and discouragement... How do you tell if someone has turned out well! By the fact that someone who has turned out well is good for our senses: the stuff he is made of is at once hard, delicate, and fragrant. Only what he finds conducive is to his taste; his pleasure, his enjoyment stops when the mark of what is conducive is overstepped. He guesses correctly what will heal harm, he exploits strokes of bad luck to his advantage; what does not kill him makes him stronger."

"The day will come when the most solemn concepts which have caused the most fights and suffering, the concepts "God" and "sin," will seem no more important to us than a child's toy and a child's pain seem to an old man - and perhaps "the old man" will then be in need of another toy and another pain - still child enough, an eternal child!"

"In all our actions, including those that appear selfless, we are in search of some kind of pleasure, even if it is only the pleasure of self-esteem. But while our desire for pleasure is infinite, our mental and physical organs are capable only of limited and temporary pleasures..."

"Experience is, in fever and anguish, the putting into question (to the test) of that which a man knows of being. Should he in this fever have any apprehension whatsoever, he cannot say: “I have seen God, the absolute, or the depths of the universe”; he can only say “that which I have seen eludes understanding”—and God, the absolute, the depths of the universe are nothing if they are not categories of the understanding. If I said decisively, “I have seen God,” that which I see would change. Instead of the inconceivable unknown—wildly free before me, leaving me wild and free before it—there would be a dead object and the thing of the theologian, to which the unknown would be subjugated."

Dark, empty, raw, silent - in which every thing is revealed in nothing.

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.

"Nietzsche’s doctrine of the eternal return is what makes moments caught up in the immanence of return suddenly appear as ends. In every other system, don’t forget, these moments are viewed as means: Every moral system proclaims that “each moment of life ought to be motivated.” Return unmotivates the moment and frees life of ends."

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.
