About this episode
Dennis and Julie begin with the topic of… not being full of yourself, and the rise of self-obsession and arrogance in society. What affect does being raised with a disabled or deceased sibling have on a one’s ego? “1. And yet I am convinced that man will never give up true suffering- that is, destruction and chaos. Why, suffering is the sole root of consciousness. 2. Suffering is part and parcel of extensive intelligence and a feeling heart. 3. To love is to suffer and there can be no love otherwise.” - Fyodor Dostoevsky. One should strive to be authentic and strengthen the core of who they are. Does having a healthy core negate the desire for fame or status? Can you develop a core, personality, or nature …or are they fixed at birth? Other topics include: Tyrannical parents; The miracle of “you”; Luck; Balaam’s Donkey; Are you a Dennis Prager Superfan?
