What If You Had to Relive Each Moment Of Your Life Again And Again (Forever?)
from Pneuma with Daniel Finneran · host Daniel Finneran
What if you had to live your life not only once, but innumerable times over? Would this be a blessing? A curse? Would you delight in the opportunity to live it again? Or, if you haven't lived such a good life thus far, would you bewail the prospect? In his work, "The Gay Science", Friedrich Nietzsche explores this idea. He does so through his doctrine of "Eternal Recurrence", of which the Pre-Socratic philosopher, Heraclitus, is acknowledged to have been the originator. In this meditation, we take up the doctrine of Eternal Recurrence and think about it deeply. Please send your comments to [email protected] affection,Daniel
