i just reading schopo "the world as will and representation" ( i go for four hundred more or less, in a book of one thousand, so maybe i missing something important) i like the guy and appreciate his sincerity.
but it´s not too misterious his vision of Will?.. it´s not just the vain and simple meaning of "will" that we commonly use.
i mean... i feel like it can´t be really be demonstrate that his vision of will was something different of some religious jerk talking about we are childrens of god.
i know im totally wrong for somebody who really admire to schopo and his pedestal in phily. but for somebody who read it and can understand my question.
he give a religious meaning and the beyond time and space cliche to the word WILL?. because for somebody so harsh in some parts sounds too naif his believing in all this.
gonna let you in on a little secret opif you want your question be answered stop using this dumbass picture

Isn't will for Schopenhauer just "Desire" or "Want"?
>>8665949
i doubt it. he go much deep with the concept. like the unnameable desire behind the desire or something like that.

Are you trying to emulate the writing of a black female?
>>8665991
yes. qualisha rodriguez... if you know it.

he should choose another word.
"the thing in itself" is shit. it´s like pushing a conceptualization for something unnameable.
>>8665949
He has a few kinds of will.
"Noumenal Will" or Will in-itself, which is just another word for Kant's thing in-itself.
"Phenomenal Will" which is effectively energy and is part of the will to life. It's the force that drives all things and can manifest itself in physical phenomena, (forces of nature etc) and living creatures.
It's awkward wording and can easily lead to confusion.
what do if i relate to the OP pic
>>8665926
Schopenhauer was huge into Buddhism and Hindu thought which informed much of his work. It explains his mystic undertones

What exactly would compel someone to make that image?
That picture is exactly like the monologues I have in my mind before I go to sleep every night
