we are nailed to eternity as Jesus Christ was nailed to the cross.
It is a terrifying prospect. In the world of eternal return the
weight of unbearable responsibility lies heavy on every move
we make. That's why Nietzsche called the idea of eternal return
the heaviest of burdens (das schwerste Gewicht).
If eternal return is the heaviest of burdens, then our lives
can stand out against it in all their splendid lightness.

发帖数: 492 | 2 The heaviest of burdens crushes us, we sink beneath it, it

woman longs to be weighed down by the man's body. The heaviest

发帖数: 492 | 3 Parmeides posed this very question in the sixth century
before Christ. He saw the world divided into pairs of opposites:

发帖数: 212 | 4 Good. :-)
Reminds me of some ideas and theories from books :

So, what's what ?
-- bye ^o^
whoa, gotta leave now. Meeting again with the group. :-(
See you later, bye ~~~ |
