No real progress so at the end of your life you will take with you all the intellectual knowledge but as far as reducing the distance that separate you from the goal of life nil.
Absolutely nil.

“A mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.”
-Plutarch


My studies have benefited me in countless ways. What the fuck do you know about it? Maybe you should crack a philosophy book once in while. Maybe you'd figure out that you're not saying anything that Rene Descartes didn't say nearly 400 years ago. Only his rendition was articulate and made some kind of fucking sense.

Another thing, before publishing Meditations, Descartes sent a copy of his work around so that his peers could respond to it. He published their responses (as well as his own rebuttals) with the finished product. In all seriousness, if you are going to accept Cartesian metaphysics, fine. But why don't you also accept his convention of listening to others and responding to their criticisms?

It seems that people take the time to read what you post and produce counterarguments to further the discussion. But you seldom return the favor.

IDK, maybe that's part of your charm, Rik. (Don't ever change.)

(And LOL @ Jor... hahahahahaha)


That is bizarre VL.  Smile

You present a thought from Plutarch which make sense unfortunately you do not follow his advise. Shake Fist
You fill your mind with a myriads of thoughts from a myriad of philosopher but at the end you fail to raise your consciousness.
That is what Plutarch is talking about when he say .............A mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.........
Why he tell us to kindle a fire?  Rolleyes
What does that means?
He simply mean to raise the consciousness.
Nothing less nothing more.
In those simple words he explain that there is no point in filling the mind with knowledge, instead we should activate the mind.
And how you do that?  Bird
Simple VL.
That is an internal effort which require self awareness by using a method that just fulfill that scope such as yoga.

So to summarize you fail and fail badly.  Banging Head On Desk
You just act like the guy that try to get the expertise to learn how to drive a vehicle only doing the theory and forget about the practice.
Until you will engage in practice the chances to reach any progress is zero.  Indubitably
