Bertrand Russell Philosophy: On Human Desire
Vložit

- I always liked Bertrand Russell because I see myself quite often in his writings.
After reading this essay (which is an abridged version of the speech he gave after winning the Nobel prize in literature in 1950), his genius became even more clear to me.
Realizing these four desires, as the main pillars, so to speak, of human motivation, can offer a lot of clarity in one’s orientation within a social ecosystem.

Always appreciate your content!
Thanks a lot :)
CZcams does throw some gems sometimes! Loved the animation!
I recognize my internal desire for acquisitiveness and rivalry often times. In the past few years of my life, I have fought hard to maintain a self awareness of these tendencies. I work to reflect on things before I buy them or accept them. When Ifeel disdain, jealousy, or envy towards someone, I ask myself why? Where is it coming from? These feelings never go away, it feels like an eternal struggle.
Appreciate your videos as always. Thanks again.
I enjoyed this video. I have not come across this BR work previously so I'm a bit smarter for you having brought it to me! Thanks!
Happy to make people smarter. :)
Great vídeo! I did'n know this speech! Thanks.
Dude, nice work! I keep re-watching this.
Keep it up αδελφε!
I like Russell's views on Hope. Hope might seem a bit simple minded at first but his belief in it means he believes in you and me and everyone else, almost everyone anyway. He knows we got the power to work on our problems and make this thing work. He's right about that.
As an introvert, inquisitiveness is my strongest core behavior. Being “Seen” just made me uncomfortable. Guess don’t really relate to competition, very much. As a younger person, possibly, for attracting the right love interest, but that’s about it. Power. If it serves to allow my independence. Vanity.. my desire to stay, Presentable?... how do think this list of Four, compares, to “The Big Five”,... personality profile? Thank you. I enjoy these conversations.
The desires are always there. They just manifest themselves in different ways and behaviors depending on your life and relationships. Also acquisitiveness means "wanting to acquire things." It's different than inquisitiveness.
@@metamorphosis_77 Ahh.... thanks! Desires. More subtle than, outright behaviors...nice. Can we ALL be running the same Four Desires?... fascinating. To be sure.
I just discovered your channel minutes before you posted this. Really cool seeing a fellow greek guy covering psychology and philosophy in so much depth. The quality of your videos is incredible, I'll make sure to stick around! Συνέχισε έτσι!
Thank you so much! Greeks have so much potential and I am sure more Greek voices will keep emerging over the next years. Love your music btw :)
Nice Content, little late this time watching your video. But as always It is par excellence. Thanks for sharing
I think my greatest motivation has been acquisitive. Probably from growing up with a single mum and having little growing up. A close second would be vanity. I think I felt inadequate and tried to win approval from other people for a long time. I am not even sure if I am completely over that either.
1-acquisitiveness
2-rivalry
3-vanity
4-love of power
Thanks
❤wow!
Muis bien..Very well put and very important that you focused on these key statements of Bertrand.
I think homo sapiens acquired a large brain that most of them cannot drive effectivly.Like giving an F1 car to one who just got their driver's licence.
A great blunt video... loved the whole thing... I do agree with the distinctions in desires & motivations... your comment on the speech was essential... thank you only one comment that I believe that’s not a result of capitalism ... it’s just the way things r & the natural order of things
A sentence about grieving from a movie got stuck with me “we are allowed to visit them in our minds & remember all the love they gave & joy they knew” the love part is the part that got stuck and I kept thinking if I wanna remember my late brother happy I actually remember him expressing love not receiving it and that goes for my self also cuz usually I get irritated from being loved... mother naggain girlfriend all over me while am not in the mood... u get the point hopefully... then I came cross the 5 languages of love and recognized that I use to consider and maybe I still do people that speak the act of service or gifts as malevolent..
so am curious about your view on the matter and what could u come up with.. where my own believe even though a person could speak more than one language of the 5 languages of love he or SHE ;)... has only one mother tongue...
again thanks for this video... keep it up & gd luck
It seems that there are 5 driving forces - with intelligence (wisdom) being the 5th.
Have you read about Gregory Bateson or Milton Erickson? By the way, I enjoy viewing your profound videos! Bravo!!!!
Haven't heard of them. Will check them out. Thanks a lot :))
I very much enjoy your analysis of philosophy and psychology, however, I am curious as to whether or not you think, culture effects the outcome of said virtues. While the modern era has enabled humans to connect across various cultures, intelligence is not just as simplistic as knowledge but how various cultures place value in what knowledge should be implemented in order to assist humanity while assisting the embetterment of oneself.
I am a firm proponent of morality = common sense. When someone is not supporting that statement they are either psychologically disturbed, or trying to serve some interests. We know what kind of knowledge serves humanity and so many philosophers and psychologists have been working on that for years. When people try to promote knowledge antithetical to this one, it's called propaganda.
@@metamorphosis_77 I agree with your statement but take for example the US psychiatry practitioners have valued Fruedian psychological theory of and in doing so have implemented some rather sick uses of psychological manipulation using propaganda. See Edward Bernays for further understanding of how false psychological or rather negative valued theory has been put into use. Morality and ethics have two very distinct outcomes in philosophical terms.
Epic content, well done Mr sexy voice
Thank youuuu 🙃
At the very end, he said "Adrien out" for his outro with no accent...
It's a trick
It’s a clear critique to our current capitalist system but, before capitalism, the means to acquire the objects of desired you mention was simply a system of a different name which operated how it could based on the historical material conditions - yet with the same desires as motives…
