YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 124
What is the true nature of Being? That's one of those "big" questions that we probably cannot answer. Related to it is another huge question: how should we be disposed toward the fact of Being? That's a fundamentally religious, or even pre-religious, question, and it's important to answer. While we may not know the true nature of Being itself, of all of existence, we can say something about the mood of our relationship to it. In this philosophical episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay explores four essential dispositions toward being: the Prison of Being, the Tragedy of Being, the Comedy of Being, and the Miracle of Being. Join him to understand these views and what they mean, particularly in light of the Gnostic and Hermetic esoteric religions lurking within Woke Marxism.
