Listen "8' - World as Will and Representation"
Episode Synopsis
The provided text consists of excerpts from Arthur Schopenhauer's The World as Will and Representation. Schopenhauer's philosophy, presented here, argues that reality is fundamentally driven by a blind, irrational "Will," a ceaseless striving for existence. This Will manifests itself in the phenomenal world, which we perceive through representations. He contrasts this Will with Representation, our intellect's structured understanding of the world. The excerpts likely explore the relationship between these two concepts and their implications for human experience and suffering.
