Philosophy’s need to _“understand itself” is akin to understanding the self.(As persona) Nietzche overcoming has its roots in pessimism, that of Schopenhauer’s vanity. The vanity he talked about, and all derivatives, have to do with the eschalogical, and hermenautic development of the ego. The reduction (pehenmonoligical) is a reAction to the “willed” ego, the over comer, whose overcoming has come down watershed, disillusioned. The existential reaction, is like the aims of yogi practice. Existentialism for Kierkegaard( and I bring him in is because his religious notion “saves” the reduction by a hierarchy of values i-topped by aesthetics and God. Agnostics and Atheists would fall trough the redemptive nature of God,and fall through to the Nietzche abyss, was it not for further regressions into deconstruction. But that leads to valueless, and this is what is happening. for agnostics, the remembrance is retraced to schopenhauer’s Buddhism. With this in mind, its logical to eternally return to buddhism and in particular, Yoga, to tie in that line of reasoning, to salvage what remains of the original thought of what Heidegger called “Being” -which is a modern restatement (intent) of the triad -existence, essence, and being (coming from the pre Christian Arab philosophers Averroes, Avicenna). So, nietzche’s re-evaluation-leads right into the yogas–. The energy of Yoga on its highest level is all inclusive, and leave not much room for the ego, even with a rationalization–be at fear based, or the most obvious, —acquisition–whether it be worldly or, otherworldly. Buddhism and Yoga are immediately violated if any benefit arising will be used as some sort of sour grapes remedy, a compensation of failed ego effects. This field sur compasses all, and is very much like , in modern terms to the existential reduction and the modern “cut up” method utilized by william Burroughs. In this realm, God exists, and in many ways, and value is re-instituted, but in a way so substantially changed, that it becomes very much unrecognizable. Madame Blavatsky’s writings and Theosophy are the beacons which began this attempt to light up the course.
