Features: A Guide to Blissful Living: Includes eleven lectures and an appendix to Lecture Six: Lecture on Life as Love, Hence Life and Bliss are Inherently Identical. Lecture Two: What is ultimately to be discussed here is metaphysics, particularly ontology. Lecture Three: Since life must be an organic whole, how could a necessary part of life be missing in real life? Lecture Four: For a blissful life, what is indispensable, and what is merely necessary under certain conditions? Lecture Five: A new principle in knowledge that does not directly apply to the world but to the reflection on the world, thus only offering different perspectives on a persisting world. Lecture Six: Proves the previously incidental assertion that this doctrine is also a truly Christian doctrine, found in the Gospel author John. Lecture Seven: Starting from the principle of mere illusory life, delves deeper into this illusory life. Lecture Eight: A deeper understanding of the ontology discussed here. Lecture Nine: The higher morality creates a new world within the realm of the sensible world, which is God's direct life in time. Lecture Ten: Grasping the entire subject of discussion from a profound perspective. Lecture Eleven: The general application of the entire lecture. On the Obstacles to the Heartfelt Communication: Lack of complete engagement, so-called skepticism, and the everyday external environment of our time. Appendix to Lecture Six: Connects with the basic tenets of Christianity, further explaining the distinction made between historical understanding and metaphysical understanding in Lecture Six. This book also includes: On Machiavelli, Addresses to the German Nation, Outlines of Epistemology, etc.
