This was a deep session, covering many thoughts that were new to me. Amongst them, we discussed:

  • The meaning of your life and how your memories never die
  • Is suffering a unique path to meaning? 
  • The path of the Buddha vs Christ
  • Suffering as impetus in Bernardo’s own journey
  • The individual meanings of our lives
  • How do you pursue your fate with the least resistance possible? 
  • How can there be meaning and purpose if time is not real? 
  • How the dead need us
  • Life as a research programme of self-knowledge 
  • Empirical observation indicates the reduction of suffering is not the goal

The recording is down below, and before that, some clips that discuss this in previous sessions.
