I appreciate that. I think I’m going to go ahead and toss out the one on Heidegger and see what everyone thinks of that format of close reading, going through bit by bit rather than a general lecture
Just checked the video out, amazing work! You have too much insight to fit into short videos, longer documentary/informative style videos like the Heidegger video that you just released are such a treat to listen to. Also, wish you’d collaborate with Let’s Talk Religion on a video, you two are by far my favourite creators! 🙏🏼
I really appreciate this, thank you! - I’m trying to summon the energy to return to video making. I really blew it out this summer with my new class’ videos and had to take a break. I have a lot of scripts ready. I just need to record..
This was the first sermon I ever read of Eckhart's, it blew me away and resonated so deeply. It radically changed my perspectives on Christ's story and I have been reading him ever since. Thanks for the analysis, it helped see even more in it.
49:30 Interestingly the word "individual" means indivisible, so by separating ourselves out of the crowd, tribe or family we become more individualized yet also at one with God. We transcend the group soul for an individual soul indivisible from God.
This is profound! Thanks a lot 🙏 I've been wanting to deepdive into Christian mysticism and am really lucky to have come across this channel. Subscribed and looking forward to explore more :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes… I talked about Heidegger’s aletheia in the recent video on Heidegger and the future of religion. But I think you’re right. It would be good to dedicate a video to that
I've checked: One of Eckhart's theses condemned: nr 14, and 15. "The good man should so conform his will to the divine will that he wills everything that God wills. And since God in a certain sense wills that I should have sinned, I should not wish to have committed no sins. And that is true penitence. If a man had committed a thousand mortal sins, and if that man were in a proper state, he should not wish not to have committed them.". An example of logical and theological idiocy in not even knowing by him a divine Aristotle's definition of evil: the privation of good (i.e., being)
A good reminder of the mystic on the internal life of a soul. U're wrong criticizing Eckhart for a claim that "Father" is both that of us and Jesus (ref."Our Father..., John 20:17). If I remember correctly he also just claimed (homily on Trinity) the classical (silly) explanation of Trinity as a paradox(i.e., 1=3- i.e. nonsense); he did not know the (present) Bible hermeneutics or symbolic logic since Frege (like all Father or of the Church) but he should see that Mk 10:18(@other Synoptics and the almost all the NT never claim (a few passages, one from a later time, 6th cent.CE-1J5:21 or St.Thomas's words in J20:28- it is a mockery on the Cesar Domitian claim; I discovered it by myself and not in any Commentary!) that the Son or Jesus from Nazareth, a man, was God!
@@goodtothinkwith Ow yes...that explains a lot! The more I study different tenets...and I have been doing that for 30 years...they actually all point to the same. Buddhism...advaita...kabbalah...suffism...alchemy...hermetism...mysticism.... But then still...to be able to fully 'be there' if you know what I mean 😊, to make the switch, the total transparacy or dissapearance of the personality...it seems to be beyond my 'grasp'....frustrating 😆 Thank you so much for these videos...I always avoided relgious teachings but Maister Eckhart...wow...🤯 A lot of other mystics talk a bit the same. A buddhist nun Samaneri Jayasara has different texts of differents tenets...including mysticism...on her channel. Worth checking that ou!
Missing your videos, looking forward to more 🙏🏼

Please continue to do these. I can't express enough how much it's appreciated

@goodtothinkwith All in time friend 😁 No need to rush them at all, I'm just happy knowing you've no plans of stopping 🫶

Excellent - thanks! I’m hoping to get back into the groove with videos soon. This summer was a lot..
Another great breakdown! Thank you :)
Great as usual. Interested to know a comparison between Heidegger's Truth as alêtheia (unconcealment) and Eckhart's Truth

*Can u make a detailed video on Advaita Vedanta and what exactly is the reality according to Upanishads?*
thank you
You’re quite welcome!

Hello Sir! How are you? Have you received my email? I am waiting for your reply. Thank you.
LETS GO
😄
This sounds exactly like what the buddha taught....amazing 😮
It does indeed! Eckhart was also a near contemporary with Dogen (Soto Zen), which may also not be wholly coincidental. Dogen b.1200, Eckhart b. 1260
