Transcendental Sith Lord's OFv2 Journal

[Shannon]

@Shannon Sorry about the other aspects of the video I didn't even consider. Didn't even think about the violence as I guess I'm used to it in such movies and also definitely forgot that we live in a age at the moment where people can't really comprehend and misinterpret stuff at the moment which then leads to them going to extremes. Ugh, unfortunately can't even have a rational nuance, philosophical discussion without people forgetting the underlying point of the discussion not the surface stuff. Anyway, removed it as you requested. One other question would you say his notion of Self overcoming has some overlap with your concept? Explanation of self overcoming:"

"Nietzsche's account of self-overcoming has a healthy dose of struggle with oneself and with others. It entails struggle with oneself insofar as one seeks to transcend one's limitations (physical and mental) and move toward ever more sophisticated, expressive, beautiful, and potent modes of action and expression."

I think Nietzsche was trying to explain something similar to what I have come to understand, but his point of view was not originating from the same direction.  To wit: I have found that indeed, one must "overcome oneself" when it comes to growth, because some parts of you are not able to understand, comprehend and cogitate the same as others are.  They have different levels of consciousness, different limitations to their consciousness, and different levels of comprehension of emotions and or logic.  Since the parts of the human awareness range from purely instinctual to purely logical, some of the conflict with others in both interpretation of shared experiences and beliefs that arise from such interpretations.  This naturally creates a situation in which some parts are trying to accomplish very different outcomes regarding the same option, which in turn creates a state of discord and unhappiness when one does not have the strength to overcome the other.  That is basically what my goal is with subliminals - to create a situation in which the conflict is removed, and the goal of the conscious is achieved. 

Struggle externally is another matter entirely.
