I really don’t appreciate Schopenhauer.
He believes that intelligence (the most intuitive knowledge of human beings, which is perceptual and does not undergo rational logical thinking) is better than rationality (which is the processing of intellectual intuitive knowledge and the abstraction of intellectual intuitive knowledge in thinking). logical thinking) is more reliable.
I understand what he said is to show that intellectual thirst (the essential, perceptual, most intuitive understanding and desire) can make people get intellectual happiness (real happiness, from the heart) happiness, the most essential happiness), he always believed that human reason is full of desires, and everything done to satisfy desires is "pursuit and struggle", and the pursuit of struggle never has a final goal, so there is no end to pain. What the rational pursuit and struggle brings to people is only sensory enjoyment, and this kind of happiness will eventually make people tired. The only thing that will not be tired is the intellectual happiness based on intellectual desire. Human beings themselves are the source of all happiness. , the more you rely on yourself and the less you ask for anything from the outside world, the happier you will be.
It feels like nonsense!
