Eternal samsara

1. Eternal samsara

The concept of "eternal return" can be understood mainly from Zarathustra.

For Zarathustra, eternal samsara is not an established fact, but rather a wish, hope and a tone of concession, which means love for life to this extent.

I am willing to accept even the cycle, and I am willing to live again. Love life to this extent, just say superman. Most people want to have an afterlife, holding the idea that the afterlife will be different, but the afterlife is exactly the same as this life, and so is the afterlife. Would you still like to have an afterlife?

Simon Beauvoir mentioned in "Everyone will die" that people are valuable because they only live once. If they don't die, they will lose all their motivation, and the goal will be meaningless to you. Immortality becomes the greatest punishment for people.

2. Eternal reincarnation

Nietzsche actually has three explanations about "Eternal reincarnation":

First, although life is limited, it is still meaningful: life is meaningful in spice of its mortality. Although this meaning draws a clear line with Schopenhauer's pessimism and the other side of Buddhism, it is far from enough.

second, it is because life is finite that it is meaningful. If it is not finite, it is meaningless: life is meaningful because of its mortality.

Third, people love life to the highest degree: I love such a mortal life no matter how many times it is repeated, even if it is exactly the same.

Eternalreturn/Eternal once again is the highest form of affirmation of life.

3. Eternal reincarnation

overman is life's own w1 as will to power, and wants to repeat itself infinitely.

in Nietzsche's philosophy, this is a unity and two sides, and the final will of will to power is will to itself, which is the highestyes affirmation.

Zarathustra finally accepted Iife is will to power very calmly, and the result was eternalreturn.
