The business of the Philosopher is to study how to be dead. There is a twofold death. The one indeed universally known, in which the body is liberated from the soul; the other peculiar to the philosophers, in which the soul is liberated from the body. This of course involves Meditation. It is such a place which mortals may scarcely reach unless they are raised by Divine Will to the state of immortality; and then ever they enter they must put off the world, and hindering vestures of the fallen.
I just wanted to say that your videos have helped me out alot... I was trying to think of stuff like this while high of cannabis... but after a while I forget what I had learned and I keep forgetting that I have a webcam to record my thoughts... some videos help make sense of all my collective thoughts on the subject matter and others make sense on a quantum physics level and from a different perspective... I love it thank you for the vids bro... hope to 'wake up' soon.
Wow, my heart skipped a beat when I saw the title of this video. I cannot believe that someone else has come to the same conclusions as me through deep thought, I honestly thought I was alone in this world with these thoughts until I came across your video. The more I watch, the more I am liking them. thank you so much for sharing this. I honestly cannot express through language how much this means to me, lol.
Don't quite get it yet, because you can say "THAT statement is false" instead of this. But sorta I get it. I think language is limited because each word has a specific definition, so the definition is arrived at by reductionist means, and the whole is usually greater than the sum of its parts so reductionist meanings cannot explain the full picture ever
I understand what has been said but hopefully U won't totally dismiss philosophy = the love of wisdom/sophia, the study of philosophy is part of the journey along a great & sacred path... philosophy can induce thoughtfulness... even if you totally rejected it, philosophy has served its purpose for you to get to the next level. Which would serve the Ouroboros of constant regeneration, the alchemy of taking things like philosophy & learning from it, a greater wisdom. Peace...
@braithmorgan yes you are right on. i haven't totally dismissed philosophy, just re-evaluated my intentions toward it and realized that talking and thinking generally take a beat to seat action and practical application.
There's an alchemical symbol for overcoming the cycle of the Ouroborus, the only name for it i've found is the "Flamel" but it is a good representation of breaking out of that cycle. it's funny cause it's a pretty common design nowadays but i'm assuming few people are aware of it's meaning and significance
Guitar HERO. B AND (Ouroborus)....WEDDING of POLARITIES...leads us 2 DNA...hehehe. I practice MMA on letters AND numbers! w00t!!! Your videos are awesome Brandon - so practical and simple.
Would love you to give us a walking tour of your bookshelf. It seems so enticing just chilling back there in your vids. It would be fantastic to see what feeds your mind : )
Brandon, I totally love your videos... Just realized I hadn't watched your last few because I could see they were all filmed in the same place, from the same angle, same location etc. I loved the videos of you in the park. Maybe mix it up a bit? =D

This doesn't actually explain how to "break free from the limits of language" it just explains that there are limits to language.
