It's more like Dostoyevski is Nietzsche's big brother. Nietzsche literally said it himself. All he ever thought Dostoyevski has come up with already and took the opposite stand with such knowledge, braking all of his conceptions. Such a shame he discovered Dostoyevski so, so very late.

The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.” Without a single doubt in my mind this small paragraph has had the most profound impact in my life. This made me fall in love with Fyodor writing

I'm not even sure that I yet understand why I was weeping so hard, but I know that this book as deeply affected me right down to the pit of my soul. I can feel it.

When I was a senior in high school, one of the 5 credit classes I took was solely about great literature, with 12 novels on the prospectus over the school year (this was in the late 70s, so there weren’t college level courses as is defined now). “Crime and Punishment” was one of those novels, and it absolutely changed my thinking….not about life, necessarily, but I definitely caught glimpses of the immense intellectual and psychological world; I felt my mind open in a way I’ll never forget and, thankfully, I’ve never allowed it to close. Dostoevsky’s thinking was so beautifully profound, that when I came to passages that moved me, I always had to share it with someone, something I’d never done before. I’ve never forgotten.

@@orlandovelez5412 I am not able to see it as a fact. It's not that I don't want to. But I'm not convinced of god and religion in general as a fact. To me it feels too contradictory to believe in a certain religion. Because every religion has a different god(s) and converting to one Religion feels like just choosing which kind of god I like the most. I would feel like a hypocrite if I accepted one Religion as the ultimate truth of the universe, when there are other religions which also claim to know the ultimate truth of the universe. That's religion, a human concept of believing in a very specific god in hope of a specific reward in the afterlife and guidance while still alive. So it's entirely possible that there is a higher being out there. But if it actually wants us to believe in it, then we would know for certain, like REALLY certain, right? If god is all-powerful he would for sure punish me right here right now, right? For sure other religions couldn't exist, right? On the other hand if he doesn't want us to believe in him. Well do I have to explain, that it's just as bad as if he didn't exist? Because how I see it, it would mean that he abandoned us. Especially the people who believe in him. Really explain it to me how can you can be so certain that you can call anything related to a higher being a truth or a fact? It's so contradictory to me. Oh I also wanted to mention that we don't know if every religion and everything related to any kind of god isn't human made. You already stated that we can't trust ourselves and our knowledge, since we are flawed. But how can we then not get skeptical if the possibility of every god being human made, isn't out of the room? If this is really the case then believing in the existence of some kind of god could very well even be one of the deceptions caused by the flaws of the human condition.

The best way to deal with negative and judgmental thinking-a horrible scourge of the mind which _must be rooted out_ if you’re to have any humanity in your hear and mind-is to help others much less fortunate than you. Find some charity or place which serves mentally ill or indigent people and volunteer, with the intention that you’re going to try very hard to connect with their humanity. Then find a good therapist to help you find out why your mind works in that negative and self destructive direction. People who judge others have an inflated sense of their own intellect and of their own importance….in conflict, they blame rather than try to find a solution. You don’t have to be remotely religious minded to takes quotes attributed to Jesus: “Judge not lest YE be judged,” and,”Let he who is without sin cast the first stone” (as in the practice of crowds who stoned people to death for some infraction).

Just came across your channel and this video and..... wow. Just wow, I can’t put it much j to words but this video is absolutely spectacular, one of the best I may have seen on KZitem ever. As someone who was starting out with reading Dostoevsky, I first read the idiot and while I did like his character’s thoughts in stuff like the painting of the dead Christ I must confess at other times I wasn’t really that invested and Myshkin is a character I have conflicting thoughts about. This video definitely helps make me appreciate it more. I read notes from the underground too and it was interesting to read too. I have to be honest I have started crime and punishment with the Richard pevear translation and I do enjoy the beginning I must confess I am worried I will not enjoy it as much. It’s the reason the brothers karamazov is something I have read so many user’s experiences of, but with that I may have tainted my own experience of it with so many preconceived notions. As a Muslim I too identify with his thoughts on religion, though I am doubting myself on my own religious affiliation and worry I may end up becoming a bigot, and I want to experience it as great as you, but I don’t know if I can. I hope I can but I must confess I am a bit afraid. But even still this video definitely shows me why philosophy in many ways especially here can be life changing, thank you so much for making this, bless you Update: I read crime and punishment and it probably is my favourite Dostoevsky work so far. I must confess though I wasn’t inspired by the novel like everyone else, and Dostoevsky’s writing style I have some problems with. I do fear again I probably won’t enjoy brothers karamazov, but I do hope I can get past preconceived notions

The Brothers Karamazov movie with William Shatner and Yul Brenner is a great movie and great assist to help with those who might struggle with reading the whole book.

Having a child taught me what it meant to love someone more than myself…it’s a special pure beautiful but bittersweet love.

I like how you stealthy-weaved a bit of wittgenstein into the part about the pointlessness of proofs for God. Your videos are always worth the wait and very much appreciated. 💗

Yeah, I can’t help it. That’s just my brain now. Wittgenstein was heavily influenced by Dostoevsky, so it’s hard for me not to read him at least a little tiny bit in that light. In fact, Wittgenstein could actually recite passages of The Brothers Karamazov by 💗!

Thank you, this is a wonderful video. I do feel a lot of sympathy for Neetzsche, because even though Dostoyevsky's love is true, it does feel scary and you really can't possess people and that leaves you vulnerable to them leaving you, always.
