Our body has 2 fundamental sensations – Pleasure or Pain ;
two fundamental emotions – joy and suffering.. . … . .. . .

Choose what you need.

Have you ever asked yourself how many independent conclusions you have reached in the course of your life?

Why is it that wherever you look there are unanswerable questions?

Or why is your life torn by impossible conflicts?

Its is a wonderful thing to love one’s country. I think it is called patriotism. But the problem of patriotism is that it stops at the border of the country. How do you then describe brotherhood? Does it go along with patriotism?

Nothing is so repulsive, infuriating, nauseating & exasperating to me than a meddling government, which tells me what to see, read, say, think, eat, drink and wear.

Man is only a collection of conditioned chemicals. A man dying does not make him more different than an animal.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Man exist for the ‘attainment of his desire’

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Man has been called a rational animal but rationality is a matter of choice. The alternative that his nature offers him is : suicidal animal.

A desire to live does not give you the knowledge required to live. Man’s desire to live is not automatic. Your apprehension of death is not your affection for life.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Man has the power to act as his own destroyer.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Every man fabricates his world with his own imagination. He has the power to choose – but no power to escape the necessity & inevitability of choice.

The root of all troubles and problems is man.

So ? _ what is man?

A collection or fragment of chemicals. A miserable bit of protoplasm. Full of ugly little concepts and mean little emotions – and it imagines itself important – and that is the root of all troubles and problems in this world.

The purpose, & rationale behind philosophy is not to help man find a meaning to life – but to prove to them, that there isn’t any.

The raison d'être of philosophy is not to seek knowledge but to prove that knowledge is impossible to man

Do not look for common sense. To seek and demand ‘sense’ is the hallmark of nonsense. Nature does not make sense. Nothing makes sense.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

People make an error of under estimating each other

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Is it true that one’s life depends on one’s mind and one’s effort?
