Buddhism, Hinduism and Schopenhauer's Voluntarism

According to the subjective idealistic dichotomy, the first half of the film is the appearance (phenomenon), and the second half is the noumenon (will). To be precise, the second half is a concrete person from the phenomenal world, stripped of social relations, and in this uninhabited tropical forest where all kinds of wild life are transpiring with the mighty omnipotent world will. Confrontation, the outcome of course can only be lost. This forest can be said to be a low-level objectification, closer to the real world. He painfully had to face the truth that he was only a phenomenon, that his daily life, which he regarded as very real, was only a phenomenon, that his own will was tied to the will of the world through the principle of individuation, which he did not know before. His love for his boyfriend can only have two consequences - pain if not satisfied, and boredom if satisfied. In the confrontation, the will of the world, which is the source of pain, is transformed into the image of the boyfriend who is the core object of the male protagonist's erotic desire. He tamely worshiped the Tiger God as his true god, and abandoned all his own will to achieve "self-loss". Subjectivity and objectivity, space and time no longer exist. From Hindu philosophy to Schopenhauer, the barriers between Asian and Western civilizations were broken down. Buddhism, the state religion of Thailand, has interacted with Hinduism in the course of its development, and the two are inextricably linked. Apichatpong's art made with religious and philosophical ideas from his own country has been recognized and praised by the Western film world. Does all this have a hint of "all things in one"?




(Attachment: Although these passages from Schopenhauer in Russell's "History of Western Philosophy" are universal, their personal feelings really coincide with the film's meaning:

... It can be seen that, in Kant's view, intention must not be It belongs to the world of phenomena and belongs to the real world.
The phenomenon corresponding to a certain will is a certain movement of the body; this is why, according to Schopenhauer, the body is the phenomenon and the will is the reality.
But the will behind the phenomena is not . according to Kant would be made up of many different intended to constitute the talk, time and
space are only part of the phenomenon of Schopenhauer agreed with his opinion on this point;. the thing itself which is not in space or in time due to
this, according to my will In the sense that it is real, my will will not be time-bound, nor will it be some simple
It consists of separate acts of will, because the source of the "multiple"—the "principle of individuation" in Schopenhauer's favorite scholastic parlance—
is space and time. So my will is one and timeless. But not only that, but also
that it should be considered and will of the entire universe is one thing; I discrete space-time sex is my perception is subjective aspects of
an illusion of official birth. The Real is a vast will, present in all natural processes, both animate and
inanimate.

So far, we may expect Schopenhauer put his universe will and God said to be one of Sri Lanka and to promote a
pantheistic doctrines Bin Nuosuo not without resemblance doctrine of pantheism, in this doctrine in the so-called morality it is intended to comply with God's
blog. But here, his pessimism leads to another development. The cosmic will is evil; the will is all evil
, and in any case the source of all our never-ending misery. Suffering is essential to all life, and
and for every increase of knowledge, suffering also will be deepened. If a will does not reach the meet will bring the fixed purpose
of. Although death will always triumph in the end, we pursue our unhelpful ends, "like we
blow a soap bubble as long and as big as we can, even though we know perfectly well that it will burst." Happiness is such a thing as I did not
have, because desire is not satisfied arouses pain, brought only after reaching satiation. Instinct drives offspring pressing aboriginal education, aboriginal education after
generation of new opportunities and give birth to suffering and death; this is the reason for sex and shame attached. Suicide is useless; reincarnation
, even if it is not true in its original meaning, conveys the truth in the form of myth.

It's all very tragic, but there is a way out, and this way out is found in India.
The best of all myths is Nirvana-myth (Schopenhauer interprets Nirvana as annihilation). He admits that this myth is not
Christian, but "the ancient wisdom of mankind will not be replaced by what happened in Galilee." Suffering is caused by a
strong will; the less we use our will, the less we suffer. So-called knowledge, as long as some kind of knowledge, to
the end, proved to be useful. The difference between one person and another is part of the phenomenal world, and when you look at the world as it
is , the difference disappears. Good man to say, "Maya" (Mirage) veil has become transparent; the good things have to understand
is one difference between his own and other people's, but the difference is on the surface. He reached this point of view with love, which is
always sympathy and is related to the pain of others. As soon as the veil of "Maya" is removed, people will bear the
suffering of the whole world . In the good man, the knowledge of the whole reassures all will; his will leaves life and denies his own nature.
In Ba Ye's heart, he
resents the nature of his own phenomenal existence as a manifestation, that is, the inner nature at the core of the world that has recognized the misery. "
