NIETZSCHE: The Will to Power
Vložit
- čas přidán 31. 05. 2024
- The will to power is one of the most fundamental concepts in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. It is also one of his most complex concepts as it was never systematically defined in his works, leaving its interpretation open to debate.
The central point revolves around gaining power over oneself, not others. It is the expression of self-overcoming, becoming who you truly are.
This video intends to shed light on this concept, tracing all the way back from his psychological insights of the "desire for power'" to the conception of "will to power", as well as its relationship with the "will to existence", "will to live" and "will to truth".
We will be focusing on what Nietzsche actually wrote and published himself during his active years, as well as making some references to his posthumously published notes (The Will to Power) where it is appropriate.

This is one of clearest and also fairest accounts of Nietzsche’s Will to Power. This concept is often demonized and misunderstood as some form of psychological or social Darwinism that exalts the strong and powerful over the weak. But as you explained the term “power” is actually very general and ambiguous and has a view to psychological power to overcome one’s own self. To Become one’s true self. Comparable even to self-realization or Jung’s individuation or Maslow’s self-actualization. It’s a very ingenious and comprehensive concept actually that shows the genius of Nietzsche. The Will to Power is the drive to continue to grow and better oneself which in turn will create growth in society.
3:11 "Ask yourself whether that ready complaining and whimpering, that making a show of misfortune, does not, at bottom, aim at making the spectators miserable; the pity which the spectators then exhibit is in so far a consolation for the weak and suffering in that the latter recognise therein that they possess still one power, in spite of their weakness, the power of giving pain.”
What an amazingly profound psychological insight. I'm very impressed
'passive-aggressive' is an attempt at power; but doesnt explain the root of suffering.
A freeman is a warrior because a warrior is not a slave.
He must require strength because otherwise he will never attain power.
Will Zur Macht
It’s a wonderful summary of the book! So difficult to put all of it in 21 minutes. Great job!
Is it me, or this guy was indeed brilliant? It’s just fascinating the rareties he is after. The level of curiosity. Most of which we do not even perceive.
The fact he didn't even want to publish anything relating to the will to power because it went against his philosophy of perspectivism is shocking. Even his bad ideas are great!
and he was willing to say what most are afraid of... the dark truths of reality
Here we (pen, paper, fellow learners) are again, learning essential concepts from a magnificent channel!
Thank you for making this inquisition, into the structure and mystery of life, slightly easier and drastically more entertaining!
I forgot my pen..
This does give a new layer of nuance and cohesion to Thus spoke Zarathustra. Now I am more compelled to read it fully now. Thank you.
🙌 👏 🙏 🤝 👍 DO IT ! Its a real win / win game ! ! ! Helped me tremendously . . .
This channel deserves way more views. Keep up the great videos.
Good job! Bravo for a very rich description box.
Power is indeed part of our Will, but essentially I agree with Frankl´s "Will to Meaning"
Being powerless can be meaningful, but meaningless is not powerful.
Understanding the Will to the Power is Power over one's self not over others
Power of Mind over Matter. of using mind to create matter
The Power of chouce of deliberate creation
Overcoming all that has come before been taught before ...
To BECOMING creating your own system from within one's self
That's true POWER
Thats what Makes the uberman !
Using "mind to create matter"? I would agree with "using mind to change mind". You might enjoy 'Closer To Truth' channel.
Great analysis and succinct 🧐. Well done very thorough. Thank you.
Thank you this is excellent. Great work cutting across the key works, I have just had them all out highlighting and making notes on your succinct interpretation. Thank you.
Nietzsche makes some very good points. The dilemma these days is power is regarded as being one others, not empowerment of self. Everything in a disempowering world is bastardised. Hence why I call what he is talking about the Will to Empowerment. Maybe we should call it Will to Being. What do I create/decide to empower the most people in the most sustainable way possible. Simple.
Great job , greetings from Argentina, love the channel !!
"indeed, the one who shot at truth with the words 'will to existanse' did not hit it: this will - does not exist! For, what is not can not will; but what is existence, how could this still will to exist! Only where life is, is there also will, but not will to life, instead - thus I teach you - will to power
This is brilliant
Greatly enjoyed this video. Good work!

Great Explanation! Love the in depth analysis! Just tried to sum it up under 60 seconds today on my channel, but boi was that a task! Nietzsche is too briliiatnt to fit in just one minute. Great video man!
Love Nietzsche work! Thank you for sharing 🙏
🙌 👏 🙏 🤝 👍 he is a own "Reich" on his own (like Osho)
Power leads to freedom
Its interesting to note in regards to schaupenhauer (srry for spelling) for the will to live it was necessary to exist in essence by avoiding suffering, and the contrast to the will to power where suffering is completely necessary and even calculated but yet nietzche died in a state of complete madness. Im not sure how the former passed or if he even lived by his own ideals, but my point is i can see where the pursuit of righteous suffering can have some profound consequences on the mind
You have done good work my good man
Bravo Bravo
You do very well on this Eternal; I wish you were my professor.
Love this channel. I hope to do some Nietzsche videos myself
Filosofy of das present=Congfu theory of self-mastery is das ultimate form of power-
Power itself.
Will Zur Macht
WILL to power is a never ending pursuit of "will to power". In this journey of taking power it's inevitable for us to face sadness, sorrow, depression and even nihilism. If we overcome all that and again embrace the WILL to power it's a never ending cycle of embracing sorrow along with it. I'm a Buddhist from Sri Lanka. According to my religion will to power will always put yourself in the middle of this never ending cycle of happiness-sorrow-happiness-greed-sorrow-resentment etc etc. If you are totally OK with this method of living you can embrace martial stoicism and continue to gain power by learning lessons in the way and minimizing sadness and sorrows along with that. BUT if you really want to shut everything down and enter into the ultimate bliss you have to do a whole lot more than that. You need to shut down all your sensory faculties and meditate, essentially focus your mind on one single little tiny minute minuscule thing, then shut down your mind also pertaining to this physical world. After that you continue to live but your mind doesn't wonder beyond that one single tiny point. Therefore after you die there will be no rebirth because your mind/soul cease to exist.
Buddhism is contradictory to the will to power. Buddhists believe in minimizing suffering and sadness while the will to power is about maximizing power to live the most rich life possible. If you're going to disagree in your philosophy at least be succinct about it
Just as ascetics/buddhists are suspicious of all instinctual feelings and thoughts, it is weird to me that they still see pain and suffering as something that should be avoided. This is based on an instinctual feeling and no real reason
The truth can be scary.
The truth is the Will to Power is real. If you're observant and objective (and yes, I understand 100% objectivity is rare if not impossible), I don't know how you can possibly think otherwise.
The evidence is everywhere... it explains everything from behavior in the workplace to global wars.
I am glad I got into Nietzsche is my early 20s (I'm almost 40 now). Prior to reading his works, I had been a Christian but had lost faith in Christianity after reading about some of the atrocities and contradictions in the Bible.
I followed Enlightenment morality for a while (still believe in it to an extent) and we can thank it for a lot. But we need a new morality for this modern world.
The modern world makes no sense in a lot of ways. People follow Christianity and other Abrahamic faiths, yet we live in an age of materialism and consumerism. It seems to be an age of Nihilism. What are we trying to accomplish? What are our true goals and ambitions?
Christianity tells you not to enjoy life's pleasure and to prepare for the next world. It is good in that it promotes the growth of character to an extent, but characteristics like discipline and integrity are only part of a strong person's personality. It does not promote making the most of one's talents or abilities. Doing so is essential to truly living life to the fullest. Instead, it preaches modesty and humbling oneself before God. If God does not exist, why should you humble yourself before Him? Make yourself the God of your world.
Belief in reason and science makes people inclined to suppress their urges in certain instances and to behave in a socially-acceptable manner (treat women with respect, don't be a brute, use your brain instead of your muscles to solve problems), but what is the goal of life for a person who believes in no gods, no afterlife and nothing transcendent?
Then there are the materialistic masses who are content with watching television and listening to music and playing on their phones all day. Sure, they have desires. They want money. They want nice cars and fancy things. But they are very shallow, and because such a way of living is very unnatural (what animals care about accumulating material possessions?), they are destined to remain unfulfilled even if they acquire vast wealth and a great collection of material items.
We need power and an understanding of power. Power is good. Power is natural. Power gives you purpose and makes you feel fulfilled. But the word scares people. They think of things like forcing others into slavery, sexual abuse, physical might etc. But true power is simply self-realization. It is developing and maximizing one's capabilities to the fullest. It's the capacity to make yourself the master of your world and destiny, which requires creating and adhering to strong morals. Certain Christian and Enlightenment morals are a good starting place, but a true Superman can bend morality in accordance with his needs and desires. In particular instances, it may be necessary to use force whereas in others kindness may be preferable.
Hopefully philosophy is not dead and a relic of the past. I believe the next great breakthrough in philosophy will be based on a synthesis of Nietzsche's theory of the Will to Power and his outlook on life in general with a proper understanding of Evolution and a revised theory of Evolution. Evolution is a thing, but it doesn't quite work the way Darwin thought. It's not driven entirely by random mutations and natural selection. There is something either intrinsic to the process or something transcendent guiding and driving it. I do not believe this force to be God or something else divine. It is more like the Will to Power itself (maybe a manifestation or form of it), but it seems to be more of an organizing sort of force.
Perhaps life is the duality of the Will to Power (the desire to grow, expand, dominate, flourish etc) and the Striving for Mastery (the impulse to impose structure, to adapt to one's surroundings successfully and to set required restrictions and limits - perhaps manifesting itself in human reason) and the Superman is the one who can achieve the ideal balance between both forces, creating a world for himself in which he grows, flourishes and lives life to the fullest while operating within a moral framework that adheres to the principles of the utmost discipline and self-mastery of his drives, desires and impulses.
Knowledge is powerful , like nature. It can not be tamed.
Thank you.
What's the painting in the thumbnail?
Keep in mind that if and when you achieve power you also win the booby prize of being forced by necessity to fight off with all means necessary all those below you who think they deserve the power more than you and who are willing to kill you to get it. It can be argued that power comes with a lifetime commitment to evil.
That doesn't apply if it's about power over one's self
@@ngaray55 Exactly. Majority of the people don't want to claim power over themselves since power over themselves means to be aware of one's mistakes, wrongdoings and to correct themselves, our ego doesn't usually allow that. Also when you make your internal fortitude strong (like knowledge, personality, mindset) which ofcourse others can't access or even do anything about it, there's no competition for power inside you.
But some people do suffer “meaninglessly”, like children in poor countries with painful illnesses and not all effort bears fruit. Meanwhile, some people do get “lucky”, like being born in the right family or winning lottery. Not all pain bring happiness.
People who win the lottery or are born into wealthy families are often some of the most depressed people.
Your assumption that having money = happiness is easily disprovable.
You wouldn’t have typed this if you’d simply applied relative correlation😂 I get devils advocate but this is like reading the Bible literally word for word and ignoring the virtue gained through metaphors
@@Selfconqueror7and you’re just blatantly ignoring the fact that our world runs on currency. I’m not saying it’s a good system but that’s just what it is a system. No crap money doesn’t buy the emotion of happiness, but in a world of greed where everything costs money it can and will give you the ability to gain financial freedom as well as necessities and luxuries. Again devils advocate cool but use some common sense so you don’t run around in circles and waste everyone’s time. Understand what logic is
@@Jayy2372mddlook at how putin rose to power... takes luck and hardwork..but this doesn't imply money cannot buy position but what is power if you are an idiot..look at the president of Russia vs the president of USA who do you think has more power under their state

Great video, as always. Would you, (or anyone in the comment section), recommend Thus Spoke Zarathustra as the entry point to Nietzche's philosophy?
Uh, maybe? It's a major deal in regards to basically reading Nietzsche as a character, but I personally recommend Beyond Good and Evil, or as said in the video Will to Power. But if you have what I must call drive, then Beyond Good and Evil is one of the best.
@@adhdasian1896 Okay, thanks :)
Where do you get the images for these videos?

You have to have a basic understanding of Schopenhauer’s ‘will’ to get the contextual framework for Nietzsche ‘will to power’. I see this as Nietzsche’s epistemological starting point in which his philosophy is a continuation of.
Taken in isolation to modern ears Nietzsche sounds a lot different to what he intended.
What's his intention, I take it as life affirming of self.

You don't will to survive, your body demands it. So will must be more than the ability to acquire necessities. But you know what I always called will... naivety. The old joke... "How do you make God laugh? Tell him your plans!" I'm afraid Yoda was wrong. There is no do or do not, there is only try. You can only try even when you don't know, ignorant of the outcome always. Your try is your meaning, while your naivety lasts.
Problem is: A planetful of powerful ppl. Who wants to stand in the shade? The essential dilemma, dont think Mr. N solved this.
In the Latin word malus [bad] (which I place alongside melas [black]) the common man could be designated as the dark-coloured, above all as the dark-haired ("hic niger est" [this man is black]), as the pre-Aryan inhabitant of Italian soil, who stood out from those who became dominant, the blonds, that is, the conquering race of Aryans, most clearly through this colour. At any rate, the Gaelic race offers me an exactly corresponding example. The word fin (for example, in the name Fin-Gal), the term designating nobility and finally the good, noble, and pure, originally referred to the blond-headed man in contrast to the dusky, dark-haired original inhabitants.
-Genealogy of Morality, Nietzsche
Essay 1, aphorism 5.
Neitzche gave birth to the higher human, the bridge between the great ape and something higher, that something higher is the Hyperian, the higher human, the over human, our new systems of philosophy and ontological mathematics will shock and awe you. Our systems have been in development since the first philosopher came on the scene, by Pythagoras and his secret school of thought that still exists today, it is through our system alone that the true nature of reality is revealed, and completely shunned by the religious, and the materialists, we have proven that reality is not material, this is also proven by quantum physics, reality is mind, it is thought, it is light, it is mathematical, humanity has lost touch with it's spirituality, most of us anyway, we are bringing it back and it will never be forgotten again, come join us and our fight to transform and change the world and ourselves as a collective!
Seems that the idea eternal recurrence of Will to Power in Living is clearer than the conflicts of these 2 men
the fight is of a self overcoming perspective as in ever transforming our eternal recurrence being the change one wants to be...
7:18
Power is given. If one gains power, it is because they have been given the right set of circumstances either inwardly or outwardly, and seeing that the self by itself is ephemeral and destined to die, power which can be taken away is merely an illusion of power. Therefore, only one true power exists... that which has the power to create existence itself. That which has the power to create power itself, and thus to bestow it. All other powers are subservient and conditional to the first power. Do not seek power. Seek true wisdom... even at risk of your own humiliation, defeat, and even unto death. Although I know of no one including myself who has the ability to do it willingly. It is abhorrent to us and we hate it. Seek first to be sought, not to know but to be known. Ask and ye shall receive. Just remember... you asked for the Truth. You can't handle it. Pray to be saved from this terrible burden because by oneself, it will either kill you or it will become you... the terrible knowledge.

I just wish Niesche hadn't gone nuts in the end, it'd be more believable everything he believed.
Even Paul the apostle had said, too much study and the focus on self intellects is harmful and brings many unnecessary afflictions to his heart mind, and soul (the self). This was thousands of years before Niesche.
He didn't go "nuts" he had syphilis that affected his behavior a bit towards the end and then ended up having a really bad stroke
I know it's stupid but when I see pictures of nietzsche he makes me laugh coz he's cute like a big cat
are now then in the times of the last man? 🤔 some days it feels like it
The will toward technological improvement seems like a pretty large subset of what could be considered power.

What I find the funniest about Fredric's work, If you actually read his philosophy you will realize that he was wrong, or in some way misinformed about. For instance, He disagrees with the stoics only because he didn't realize he actually agreed with them. Or his attribution to Darwin on self preservation, But also. He's the most misunderstood philosopher himself. Such as people attributing nihilism as a physical thing to him creating it, Or him personally believing in absolute worthlessness.
yes. it is a bad fate!

The 16th to 19th century Canadian pastoralist movement, the common horse. Peter Gast, let Friedrich Nietzsche know what had destroyed Europe and Russa. So Nietzsche penned this, a list of notes, on what Canada wanted.

Isn't the will to power defined by Schopenhauer ?
But you failed to present Nietzsche's own phililogical exegesis of the 'will to power' as a text. The 'will to power' owes its name to the political order. Only through the pathos of distance afforded to indivudals by castes and classes was the sense of a pathos of distance possible within the exhalted subject.
If you haven't read Sarah Kofman's Nietzsche and Metaphor, it is absolutely fundamental in understanding the 'will to power'.
Could you link another video that explains Nietzsche’s ‘will to power’ better? I’d like to dive deeper, obviously I should read his work but I don’t think I’m clever to understand it through text.

thats nice but its not true because from my perspective nature grows to live in symbiosis as seen evident everywhere
symbiosis doesnt disprove will to power
@@curiousmole6790 true. we live because our mitochondria gained the power to live inside our cells. and our cells used them to evolve to us.. so each is trying to take power from one another.
but its not its just random configurations from the most simplest to the most complex.
to sday life is based on power is to say God exists and exerts that on life.
its not, life is random numbers all working is a beautiful complex manner.
also tell me how a sloth is more powerful frome evolution lol
I don't really buy will to power being more fundamental than self-preservation and reproduction. It may very well be just a function of those two, evolved to ensure their realization. Animals that strive to control territory and increase their might survive longer and reproduce better than those that don't. But they rarely if ever "discharge their power" to the detriment of these two goals, there very clearly is a mechanism preventing that. Which means to me that "the struggle for existance" does indeed take priority over "the struggle for power".
An objection may be, that if we were placed inside a giant bio-factory that kept us always alive and made us birth as much children as possible, we wouldn't be automatically happy, since other desires, including desire for power, wouldn't go away. But these instincts have evolved to be always on, because in the wild there rarely was a situation when a need for, say, shelter could be left unsatisfied without it threating the organism's survival. Even if this hypothetical biofactory made these situations commoplace, the redundant drives wouldn't switch off - but that doesn't make them more fundamental than the drive to reproduce.
@@AvaloneDareios I was talking about biological drives and psychology, not metaphysics. And I think the section of the video I was responding to also did.
I'm not sure I get your interpretation. Do you mean that will to power is a fundamental force that makes matter exert its influence on other matter? The matter sort of "wants" to act a certain way? And because life is a result of matter interaction, all the drives it exhibits can be described in terms of that will? Because if that's what you meant, I disagree with you (somewhat on the existance of that will itself, but mostly on the point that this makes reproduction and self-preservation merely means to an end for organisms *themselves*). But I need to ensure I'm not putting words in you mouth first.
Man, I hate you. What the heck? You are too good..... Thank you sooooooooooooo much.
Neitzche antithises is not exactly his magnum opus and the title of your video frustrates me because it really belong to arthur Schopenhauer
Is Christianity in Europe different?? You keep misquoting Christianity The Apostle Paul compares christian life like a person running a marathon, that's strength expression. As christians we are working to be like Jesus Christ Who we believe is The ultimate Powerful Character that's will to power
Nietzschean struggle to power seems to have infected all lines of philosophy leaving a latent 'victim mentality'
Nietzsche loved Dostoevsky so there may be hope yet. Nietzsche’s unbelief may have contributed to his nervous breakdown. And his lack of faith may have resulted in no support when he brilliantly pulled away the illusions of all philosophy. Unlike Nietzsche, I would be led by the Spirit to say it is time to, “Let our souls magnify the Lord” -- and realize there are no borders, especially when we blow into the sails of another's boat.
Plato regarded democracy as little more than mob rule by another name-perhaps without the violence, at least at first. The distributism model of G.K. Chesterton that awakens reciprocal financial benefits along ALL PEOPLE is the only authentic Democracy of the Holy Spirit: African, American Indian, Asian, Australian, European, Indian, Melanesian, Micronesian & Polynesian.
Unlike socialism, which advocates state ownership of property and the means of production, distributism seeks to devolve or widely distribute that control to individuals (FAMILIES) within society, rejecting what it saw as the twin evils of plutocracy and bureaucracy.
Capitalism advocates 'corporate ownership' of property and the means of production - destroys families.
Socialism advocates 'state ownership' of property and the means of production - destroys families.
Distributism advocates 'family ownership' of property and the means of production - UNITES FAMILIES

Ok, boomer
@@andredelacerdasantos4439 I am old. My mind and attitude is not.
Imagine a colored guy, who used phrases and never defined them. Then went crazy . Would that guy be famous .
OK, let's say I dont like your upload. I want to write a comment saying I disagree with your interpretation. Obviously I was going to. That is my strength to affirm or negate interpretations. That causes you some harm, obviously. You say the weak man wishes to see signs of hurt or suffering in others, where the powerful do not. No, you are wrong, it is my revenge!
Ill give you a proper example. I go on r/AmIHot and I write a comment saying nah I wouldn't bang you. I then delete it because its mean for no reason! There is no revenge! It is cruelty for the sake of it. You are too general is your speech and my example has made that clear.
You have diluted the whole concept of will to power, so much prejudice
Dostoevsky retorted against this with the will to happiness. Which do you stand on viewers?
