Philosophies for Life

Are You Strong Or Weak? Nietzsche's Philosophy On True Strength (Existentialism). In this podcast we will talk about what truly makes you strong from the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. Friedrich Nietzsche was one of the main precursors of existentialism who spoke about Will To Power. Are you truly in control of your life, or are you letting the world control you? Strength isn’t just about muscles or toughness—it’s about how you face life’s challenges. German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche believed that true strength lies in your mind, in your will to rise above fear, doubt, and mediocrity. The question is: Are you shaping your destiny? Or are you trapped in a cycle of excuses, letting life just happen to you? In his philosophy, Nietzsche talked about the concept called the Will to Power. This is the drive inside of us that pushes us to survive, do our best, and keep improving. It’s about always trying to get better and being true to yourself. It's about overcoming your own challenges and fears. Nietzsche also talked about weakness. He said that weakness is the opposite of strength. Weakness is when people avoid challenges, stay in their comfort zones, and don’t try to improve. He didn’t like weakness because it stops people from becoming their best selves. In his book Beyond Good and Evil, Nietzsche explained two ways of thinking: master morality and slave morality. Master morality is the way strong people think. They believe in always trying to get better and becoming the best version of themselves. They don’t just accept their problems - they face them and find ways to change their lives for the better. Slave morality is the way weak people think. They feel stuck, and instead of trying to change, they blame their problems on others or on bad luck. Nietzsche called them “slaves” because they don’t have the strength to take control of their own lives. So, here’s a question for you: Are you the master of your own life, or do you let outside influences control you? Do you feel stuck, or do you want to change and get better? In this video, we’re going to talk about Nietzsche’s ideas about strength, weakness, and the difference between master and slave thinking. We’ll give you some ideas on how you can change and become the master of your own life. Let’s get started! 01. Individuality vs. Conformity 02. Self-Overcoming vs. Passive Conformity 03. Pride vs. Victimhood 04. Creative Energy vs. Resentment and Justification 05. Life-Affirmation vs. Life-Denial I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope that this wisdom on will truly make you strong, from the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche will be helpful in your life.  Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philosopher, poet, essayist, and cultural critic. He is considered to be one of the most daring and greatest thinkers of all time. His writings on truth, morality, language, aesthetics, cultural theory, history, nihilism, power, consciousness, and the meaning of existence have exerted an enormous influence on Western philosophy and intellectual history. He was one of the biggest precursors of existentialism, which emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent, determining their own development through acts of will. By his famous words “God is dead!”, Nietzsche moved the focus of philosophy from metaphysics to the material world and to the individual as a responsible person for his own life. Friedrich Nietzsche wrote several books like The Birth of a Tragedy,  Human, All Too Human, The Dawn, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Beyond Good and Evil, Twilight of the Idols, The Will to Power, The Antichrist, and many more. His teachings have shaped the lives of many people; from psychologists to poets, dancers to social revolutionaries.

In this podcast we will be talking how to stop overthinking, from the wisdom of  Buddha. Gautama Buddha was a philosopher, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who is credited as the founder of Buddhism. So with that in mind, here are 6 ways to stop overthinking from Gautama Buddha - 01. Understand You Are Not Your Thoughts 02. Return to the Only True Reality 03. Let Go of Attachments  04. Walk the Middle Path 05. Practice Vipassana 06. Practice Metta I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope these 6 ways to stop overthinking from Gautama Buddha will add value to your life. The Buddha was a philosopher, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who is credited as the founder of Buddhism. He was born as Siddhartha Gautama in India in 566 BC into an aristocratic family and when he was twenty-nine years old, he left the comforts of his home to seek the meaning of the suffering he saw around him. After six years of arduous yogic training, he abandoned the way of self-mortification and instead sat in mindful meditation beneath a bodhi tree. On the full moon of May, with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the awakened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realized in that moment. Around him developed a community of people, drawn from every tribe and caste, devoted to practicing this path. Nowadays, he is worshiped by most Buddhist schools as the enlightened one who has escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth, transcending Karma. Their main teachings focus on their insight into duhkha meaning “suffering” and into Nirvana, which means the end of suffering. 

Why Hope Won’t Make You Happy (And What Will) - Albert Camus (Absurdism). In this podcast we will be talking about why hope will not make you happy from the philosophy of Albert Camus. This video also talks about  how to live without hope and still find joy in the here and now.  Albert Camus is one of the most representative figures of the philosophy of “absurd” or “absurdism".  So here’s how to live without hope and still find joy in the here and now  -  01. Accept Life’s Lack of Ultimate Meaning 02. Finding Meaning Through Actions, Not Answers 03. Live fully, unapologetically 04. Embrace Struggle 05. Love life as it is I hope you listening to these 5 ways to live without hope and still find joy in the here and now from the philosophy of Albert Camus, and find these insights helpful in your life.    Albert Camus is one of the greatest French writers and thinkers. He was a philosopher, an author and a journalist. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957 and his most famous works are The Stranger, The Plague, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Fall, and The Rebel. Camus is one of the most representative figures of the philosophy of the “absurd” or “absurdism,” which is a philosophical movement having as its central hypothesis that human beings exist in a purposeless, chaotic universe. Camus considered that absolute freedom must be balanced with absolute justice - too much freedom leads to the situation when the strong suppresses the weak but too much justice kills freedom, and we need to live and let live. As a promoter of the philosophy of the “absurd”, Camus believed that life has no meaning, that the universe simply exists and that it is indifferent to people’s lives. We are like Sisyphus from Greek mythology, forever carrying that heavy rock to the top of the hill, although we know the rock will always fall down and our life's work is meaningless. Our condition might be tragic, but Camus considered that this exact condition hides a blessing in disguise: life does not have a meaning, but we are free to attribute it any meaning we want. His philosophy has inspired a lot of  people in dealing with the absurdity of life and even today, his philosophy is extremely relevant.

In this podcast we will be talking about how to focus on yourself from the wisdom of 6 different philosophers and philosophies for life. The 6 philosophers we will be talking about for finding purpose in this video are Albert Camus (Absurdism), Nietzsche (Existentialism), Sartre (Existentialism), Marcus Aurelius (Stoicism), Lao Tzu (Taoism) and  Buddha (Buddhism). Diogenes, an ancient philosopher with the spirit of a wild beast and the wit of a poet, saw through the illusion of civilization. Where others pursued wealth and honor, he saw vanity. So, he rejected it all, choosing a life most would call madness but which he knew was true freedom. He didn’t just talk about philosophy—he lived it, stripped down to its rawest form. He owned nothing but a cloak, a staff, and a ceramic jar he called home. While others debated virtue in grand halls, he lived it under the open sky. He mocked the powerful, exposed the foolishness of the so-called wise, and reduced life to its barest essence: harmony with nature, free from the absurd expectations of society. Then came the moment that made him immortal. One day, Alexander the Great, the most powerful man alive, stood before him and declared, “Ask for anything, and I shall grant it.” Now, most would have begged for riches or status. Diogenes barely looked up and said, “Move aside, you’re blocking my sunlight.” Think about that for a moment: The conqueror of nations stood powerless before a man who wanted nothing. So who, then, was truly free? Most of us aren’t. From birth, we’re shaped by the world—told what to value, what to chase, what to fear. We measure ourselves by status, companion, and approval. And in an age of endless screens and constant judgment, this enslavement has only deepened. How do we break free? Diogenes didn’t ask us to live like him—he wanted us to see like him. To strip life down to what truly matters, to stop chasing what others say is important, and to reclaim the freedom to be ourselves, without apology or permission. So what’s next? Turn inward. Let go of borrowed desires. Stand firm in your own life. The world will always whisper its demands—but whether we listen is entirely up to us. In this video, we’ll explore how to focus on yourself through the wisdom of the world’s greatest philosophers. Starting with 01. Albert Camus -  Accept the absurdity 02. Nietzsche – Be the Superhuman 03. Sartre - Take responsibility for yourself 04. Marcus Aurelius – Control What You Can, Ignore the Rest 05. Lao Tzu – Flow Like Water 06. Buddha – Understand the True Nature of Self I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope that these lessons from 6 Brilliant Philosophers on how to focus on yourself will help you in your life..

Indeed It is being said that he fought 60 duels, and never lost one. He fought for the first time when he was 13 against an experienced Samurai, and came out victorious. He took down the greatest swordsman at that time, one by one, until the throne was his, and his alone. However, Miyamoto was more than that. Not only was he a master of his craft, but he was also an artist, a cerebral philosopher and a buddhist. He sought meaning, wrote war and philosophy books, and his work became a blueprint for people who want to live a disciplined life. A week before he died in 1645, Miyamoto Musashi wrote 21 principles called “Dokkodo '' by which he expresses a stringent, honest, and ascetic or strongly self-disciplined view of life.

Although his stories seem surreal and unusual on the surface, they explore something deeply human: the struggle to find meaning, to be understood, and to stay connected in a world that feels cold and indifferent. His most famous works include: “The Trial”, “The Castle”, and “The Metamorphosis”. All of these books explore themes like isolation, loss of identity, the pressures of modern life, and the systems that shape and sometimes crush us. All of these themes come together in his most famous and perhaps most heartbreaking work, The Metamorphosis.

In this podcast, we will discuss 6 Easy Zen Morning Rituals To Boost Focus & Energy All Day according to the philosophy of Zen Buddhism. Zen is a way of seeing life clearly.  At its core, it’s about being fully present — whether you're watching the sunrise, eating a bowl of rice, or listening to the wind.  Philosophy Of Zen comes from the Mahayana branch of Buddhism, a path that values both wisdom and compassion — not just for ourselves, but for all living beings. But Zen is more than a religion or philosophy.  It’s a way of living. It teaches that truth is right here, in this moment — in the simple act of being awake to life as it is. Zen asks us: Can you sit still and simply be? Can you sweep the floor without needing it to mean more than sweeping? Can you drink your tea without your mind wandering in a thousand directions? Rather than chasing something better, Zen gently points us back to what’s already here.  That’s why everyday actions matter so much in Zen. In a Zen monastery, nothing is too ordinary to be sacred. From how you walk to how you eat to how you clean your bowl — every movement is a mirror. It reflects your attention, your care, your state of mind. Take the morning routine of a Zen monk.  It’s not just a to-do list. It’s a quiet way to reconnect — with the body, the breath, and the world. Not by force, but by being fully here. From the moment the monks rise, each action is performed with intention.  And in this video, we’ll look at  simple Zen morning rituals — small practices that may seem ordinary, but can quietly change the way you move through your day. So here are 6 simple Zen morning rituals -  01. Wake Up Before sunlight 02. Perform basic hygiene 03. Practice Zazen 04. Chant  05. Practice Samu 06. Practice Oryoki We hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope this video, from the philosophy of Zen Buddhism, helps you with your morning routine..  ‘Zen’ is a term derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the Middle Chinese word, chán, which means ‘meditation.’ It is also a form of Buddhism that distinguishes itself with its almost exclusive focus on personhood and the present. Rather than meditations on life, death, religion, or the world, ‘Zen’ urges you to focus inwards and on the ordinary only. Like all other forms and practices of Buddhism, Zen is not an ideology or belief, but rather a way of life. Buddhism was created in India but gradually travelled through Asia throughout the centuries - and in every country, it spawned multiple sub-sections of Buddhism. The Zen subsection of Buddhism was created in China, leading to the Chinese School of Zen Buddhism becoming the most successful school of Buddhism in the entirety of China, Korea, Japan and Vietnam.

In this podcast, we will be talking about 5 ways to stop destroying everything you love according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. Carl Jung's psychology is called analytical psychology and his philosophy is dubbed as “Jungian philosophy”. Jung’s most famous theory is ‘the individuation process.’  Carl Jung was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychologist who believed that most of our suffering doesn’t come from what happens to us… but from what lies hidden within us. One of Jung’s most powerful insights was this: We often sabotage the very things we long for. Love. Intimacy. Peace. Success. When something meaningful enters our lives, instead of embracing it, we ghost. We pick fights. We shut down. But why do we destroy what we care about most? Maybe because deep down, we don’t believe we deserve it. Or maybe because a part of us is terrified that it won’t last. Or maybe — and this is the hardest to face — something beautiful touches a part of us we’ve worked so hard to bury… and that’s unbearable. So we push it away before it can leave us. Jung believed these patterns aren’t random. They come from deep inner wounds — parts of ourselves we’ve rejected, hidden, or never even looked at. And our pain doesn’t vanish when we ignore it. It just finds another way to express itself — in self-sabotage, anxiety, depression, or broken relationships. We start to tell ourselves, “I’m just unlucky in love.” But maybe the truth is that something inside us is quietly afraid of love. We say, “I just can’t seem to find peace.” But maybe peace would force us to sit with feelings we’ve spent years running from. Jung believed that healing begins when we stop blaming the world outside and start turning inward.  It’s not an easy journey. Indeed it means facing the parts of ourselves we’ve exiled. But it’s the only way to stop the cycle of destroying what we love — and start learning how to hold it. So in this video, we’ll answer the question “Why do we destroy everything we love?” and more importantly, “How can we stop?” using the wisdom of Carl Jung. So here are 5 ways to stop destroying everything you love according to the philosophy of Carl Jung-  01. Recognize the Pattern Without Judgment 02. Meet Your Shadow 03. Befriend your Inner Saboteur 04. Embrace your Anima or Animus 05. Integrate Through Conscious Action I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope that this wisdom on how to stop destroying everything you love using Jungian Archetypes according to the philosophy of Carl Jung,  will be helpful in your life.  Carl Jung, together with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, is one of the 3 founders of psychoanalysis which is a set of psychological theories and methods aiming to release repressed emotions and experiences - in other words, to make the unconscious conscious. Jung was born in Switzerland in 1875 and died in 1961, leaving behind great works in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, psychology and religious studies. Jung had Freud as a mentor for a good part of his career but later he departed from him. This division was painful for Jung and it led him to found his own school of psychology, called analytical psychology as a comprehensive system separate from psychoanalysis. If classical psychoanalysis focuses on the patient’s past, as early experiences are very important in personality development, analytical psychology primarily focuses on the present, on mythology, folklore, and cultural experiences, to try to understand human consciousness. One of the most important ideas of analytical psychology which Jung founded is the process of individuation, which is the process of finding the self - something Jung considered an important task in human development. While he did not formulate a systematic philosophy, he is nonetheless considered a sophisticated philosopher - his school of thought dubbed “Jungian philosophy”. Its concepts can apply to many topics covered in the humanities and the social sciences. A good part of his work was published after his death and indeed there are still some articles written by him that to this day have yet to be published. Some of his most important books are: “Psychology of the Unconscious”, “Man and His Symbols”, “The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious”, “Modern Man In Search of a Soul”, “The Psychology of the Transference”, “Memories, Dreams, Thoughts”, and “The Relations Between the Ego and the Unconscious”. Besides being a great writer and a researcher, he was also an artist, a craftsman and even a builder. His contribution is enormous and there is a great deal we can learn from his works.

In this podcast we will be talking about how to discover your life purpose from the wisdom of 5 different philosophers. The 5 philosophers we will be talking about for finding purpose in this video are Albert Camus, Marcus Aurelius, Buddha, Lao Tzu and Krishna. Have you ever felt like life’s meaning is slipping away, and you’re left asking—what’s the point? You’re not alone. For most of human history, finding purpose was simple. In ancient times, people looked to religion, kings, or societal traditions to define their purpose. Whether you were a farmer, a soldier, or a scholar, your role in life was clear. You were part of something bigger, guided by divine forces or the rules of society. Life had meaning because it was shaped by something beyond you, something you were meant to serve or contribute to. But over time, this certainty began to break down. With the rise of science, reason, and secular ideas, many people stopped relying on religion or tradition to find meaning in life. The world started to look very different, and so did our understanding of purpose and this is where the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche comes in. He famously said that "God is dead." Now, Nietzsche didn’t mean that God literally died, but rather that the old beliefs that gave life meaning were no longer relevant in the modern world. Religion and traditional ways of thinking had lost their hold over people’s lives. What followed was a void—a space where the clear answers we once had about life’s purpose no longer existed and in this void, many people felt lost. With no higher power or guiding principle to follow, we were left to figure things out for ourselves. Some people found freedom in this new world, embracing the opportunity to shape their own meaning. Yet, for others, the void became overwhelming, leaving them feeling lost, disconnected, and adrift in a world that seemed indifferent, uncaring, and chaotic. This is the challenge we face today: we are free to create our own meaning, but it’s not always easy. The search for purpose can feel overwhelming, and sometimes it leads to frustration or emptiness. So, how do we find purpose in a world without clear answers? That’s what this video is about. We’re about to explore five different philosophies that offer ways to create meaning in life. This video is a mix of Western philosophy, Eastern spirituality, and ancient wisdom, all compiled to help you find your life’s true purpose. By blending these diverse teachings, we’ll explore how each philosophy offers practical insights that can guide you toward living a more meaningful and fulfilled life in a world that no longer provides clear answers.  So here are 5 Brilliant Philosophers on Discovering Your Life's True Purpose -  01. Albert Camus - Rebel Against the Absurdity of life 02. Marcus Aurelius - Meet life with Virtue and Acceptance 03. Buddha - Finding Purpose In Letting Go 04. Lao Tzu - Finding your Purpose in the flow of your life 05. Krishna - Surrender to the divine I hope you enjoy listening to this podcast and hope that these lessons from 5 Brilliant Philosophers on Discovering Your Life's True Purpose will help you discover your life’s true purpose.

Born in Russia, she moved to America when she was in her 20’s; there she wrote several novels, some of the most famous being: The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. Towards the end of her life, she focused more on philosophy, founding the philosophy of Objectivism, the four main principles of which are: Objective reality, which is the reality that exists independently of consciousness, Absolute reason, which means that the guidance of facts far outweighs the guidance of faith or emotion, Individualism, which means the proper moral purpose of one's life is the pursuit of one's own happiness, and Laissez-faire capitalism, which is a system based on protecting human rights and property rights. Her main philosophical view is that knowledge can be acquired only through the process of reasoning and she rejected religion and faith. She attacked many past philosophers, with the exception of a few, like Aristotle and Thomas Acquinas. She was inspired by Nietzsche and John Locke and she was against Immanuel Kant, whom she named “the most evil man in mankind's history” because she thought his ethics opposed the self-interests of human beings. During her life, she was involved in many political movements and made connections with journalists, economists, including the economist Ludwig von Mises, who referred to her as "the most courageous man in America", a compliment that pleased her because he said "man" instead of "woman", implying that she was more courageous, had more guts than any man. Through the Objectivism movement, her work became known more and more to the public.
