@Juan Perez He was a hard worker who led us a lot of films. You say you saw some. If you don't like them or you are not able to understand its deepest meanings, ok. But if your reasons consists in call him "moron" or "dumb", probably you are showing us your emptyness (and maybe you are a stupid Spaniard Vox fan).
Life holds many gifts for those who are highly intelligent, extremely sensitive, artistic people, especially when they can feel also every emotion in words, when words and ideas have the capacity to make them intoxicated. The difficulty is, their radar for the sublime at one end of the spectrum doesn’t negate feelings and perceptions at the other end....the gifts must be taken with the curses, and we’ve heard the list of Inmarsat Bergman’s list of his own demons. The only way to get though the darkness which _ALWAYS_ accompanies the brightest light, is to find a therapist who understands. And the other huge gift is a naturally happy or upbeat personality....at least, that’s what I have found. So, I feel for Mr. Bergman, who apparently didn’t look for the therapist and only pretended to be happy. He seemed to be self destructive in his relationships with women, as evidenced by all of his marriages and infidelities (why then, get married at all??), and he couldn’t seem to find any perspective on ways to help himself. Like most overly sensitive people, he just appeared to move at a frenetic pace to keep his particular demons quiet, but this only makes them stronger and more aggravating-they thrive in the dark corners of our minds. Something as inane as being annoyed at a bird finding a way in the house became an enormous fear, an obsessive terror. *_The deal is, you can run from your anxieties, but you can’t hide!_* I find it very sad that he didn’t find any peace, and that he didn’t figure this out: When you force a huge anxiety into the light and scream, exposing it to the light of day and putting it back into proportion, it initially feels like you’re going to free fall from the height of a very tall cliff, only to find you’ve just stepped off of a low kerb. Very embarrassing. Of course, the biggest consolation for these people is that, though most are not famous, they will never be mediocre.
I'm swedish and he does NOT swear a lot. He says "Det går åt helvete" which means "It goes to hell" or "It goes very wrong". Then he says "Ett jävla humör" which means "A terrible temper", but "jävla" is actually "devilish". Our swear words are always about the devil and hell basically.
TheSoulSColours: Thanks so much for uploading this video of my number "one" person... Ingmar Bergmar, a great film maker. I miss him a great deal. Cheers to all Ingmar's fans. From New Orleans the city of jazz and the "Cajun" food mmmmmmmmmm....!!!!
I feel a relief come over me when I see such similar demons to my own articulated, but it is short lived. The nausea returns at the thought of our shared cruel bindings - tethered to one another like Bergman's characters' silhouetted dance with Death over twilight's hill.
I could relate to almost all of his demons, but only in a vague and far fetched way. When he mentioned the demon of nothingness, though, I got chills. When I am alone I am myself, but when I am with people I recognise very little of what's happening inside me. It is almost like I do not think rationally and can't form a comprehensive thought and put it into words.
I think he meant something else when he mentioned a demon he doesn't have aka the demon of nothingness. He was talking about not being afraid of ever loosing his creativity. Like some artists are or were. I have heard of comedians who had the fear of suddenly loosing their funny and inventive mind. And not being funny anymore. He wasn't afraid of this. Didn't have this "demon".
I watched this a couple of times and after awhile i realised he was actually joking. He has an incredible dry sense of humour, he has these demons and is not lying, but that he is aware of them makes this and wrote them down is great humour.
When you are lost and alone - alone within yourself, you become overwhelmed by that feeling of the acute lack of mind, creative sustenance so terribly underwhelming that it brings despair to you, and the emptiness engulfs you whole. The demon of nothingness. How do I vanquish what has already vanquished me?
The 'demon of nothingness' is in fact an angel or even God. He says he's glad not to know it but how can you be glad of not having something you don't know [although he's true to his never ending imagination and so, he can only imagine what 'nothingness' is like]. It is from nothingness that imagination and ideas arise but what is born in time, must vanish in time and only nothingness remains, as somethingness solid like a mountain, so full of peace, and stillness, to the brim. Nothingness is that, which if experienced, kills all the demons.
Wrong. God is not nothingness. God is the fount of being Who pre-existed all creation. It is not from nothingness that anything arises. That is impossible being cannot come from non-being. God is eternal. There was never a time God did not exist. Nothingness, in fact as the name implies, also does not exist. It is a figment of the imagination. It is a mental placeholder, but it does not exist in any ontological sense.
@@chadpilled7913 Counter WRONG!!! Proceeding by the way of conceptual logic takes you nowhere. God as nothingness can be known by being not by intellectual gymnastics. Nothingness is not the opposite of somethingness, which is a transitory notion anyway; nothingness is not not-being but being, that exists in eternity as God.
@@laoisemeehan They are afraid of that which they don't know but only can imagine, painting it in the darkest colors. Then they give reality to the imaginary and so, live afraid of their own shadow, which is... nothing.
Based on the video above, and for starters, he can articulate singular ideas and meanings which we usually don't see being articulated.@@rikardkaar3682
I think everyone starts with all demons, but overcome some without really trying. Then the ones that are left are your biggest challenges. And if you manage to be brave and courageous and overcome them all. That's when you get the demon of the nothingness. How do you overcome that one?
He's speaking as an orderly demon. "There has to be peace, order, tranquility". That cuts out a lot of life. particularly the fun parts, don't you think?
Bergman was an existentialist and tried to teach this form of philosophy through his movies. Notice that even his speech and the content is expressed in existentialist form. What a tortured man. He died in complete despair.

Religion used to be what brings all the disintegrated parts of ourselves together. Interesting that he was wise enough to call them demons to disassociate from his conscious self. But at the same time it hints at the helplessness of losing control when these forces swell up from the unconscious.
May be his vargtimmen really affected his artistic life(we can see painter's monologue in this movie). I think there are many artists around the globe suffer from many things and ppl just don't care.mother earth had enough it needs to end
i don't understand this to any extent. what do demons symbolically represent? who is this man? please be generous in helping me understand this. whatever being said I find it profound but can't understand.
Seems to me that he has resorted in externalizing and impersonating his flaws so he has an excuse to not work on himself, at the detriment of those who have to share a life with him. I know that move. It works until it doesn't.
*He was considered to be one of the greatest and most influential directors of all time. Being demonically controlled explains his fame and accolades. Jesus said, "what does it matter for a man to gain everything if he loses his soul?" Ingmar Bergman is a perfect example of this. May God have mercy on his soul.*
@@sorafimIt's not an empty soul, it's just not a whiny soul. This man was a celebrated and successful artist. He should have used his power to help people with real problems (war, famine, injustice, terminal illnesses, orphans, etc) instead of indulging in self pity over the most luxurious pet peeves and the mildest inconveniences.

The BBC are very "kind" in their translation of this. He swears a lot, a whole fucking lot.

När svär han?

While it might strike some as "weak", it is deeply brave to "own" one's demons in this way.
"Lanterna Magica", his autobio, is stunningly honest and give so much insight to this tortured, brilliant man.

Out of nothing comes new. All things that are once weren't. The vanquished no longer in anguish.
wow. so that's why i have an extreme attachment with Bergman films.. me n him r literally the same. thank you, Ingmar Bergman.
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful content with us 💖💖
He suffered from many mental ilnesses obviously. Pain makes great films sometimes, like in his case.
yay, my guide thank you, Ingamr
I think I like this recorded off a tv version better :)
Genius.
holy shit, my list is the same, with a little bit more in it
What is the full documentary?
What went wrong with the sound? Did you record this on a Super-8 from 1964...?
You speak to me directly tonight.
def. not from india
Sorry, Mr Ingmar, we can't hire you right now! Good luck on your ventures! We've found someone else who fits our vision: "Somehow, Palpatine Returned"

Nothingness is what the buddhists teach is the highest of all states, emptiness, to take life as it comes.
I'm just like him but without any creative outlook of any kind
"You can't waste time on irrelevant emotions"
It would be a mess.
Insanity, not art.
Isn’t that what all artist are doing though? All of the ideas are irrelevant and emotions that don’t get us anywhere
He's speaking as an orderly demon.
"There has to be peace, order, tranquility".

He spoke of demons in a very idiosyncratic way. He even spelt the word ‘demon’ (which is spelt in the same way in Swedish) as _dämon._
He also used the spelling 'Upsala', which is the old fashioned spelling but in this case the same as in modern English.
Bergman was an existentialist and tried to teach this form of philosophy through his movies. Notice that even his speech and the content is expressed in existentialist form. What a tortured man. He died in complete despair.
You talk like one of Ingmar Bergman's demons. It's time to cast you out!
