Produktbeschreibung

Religion, according to Schopenhauer, is like the god of death, Yama. Like him, he has two faces: a friendly and bright face, and a dark and gloomy face, a face of truth and a face of lies and deception. And the clergy, according to him, are a unique mixture of moral teachers and evil lies. He does not deny at all that religion, any religion, contains an abundance of useful truths. This is what gives it value and gives it a high status in what is popular metaphysics. Because it satisfies the thirst for the spiritual needs of all those who have no way to understand the naked truth or bear its burden. The value of this or that religion, according to the famous son of Danzig, does not come from the fact that this religion calls for monotheism, the other for polytheism, and the third for the doctrine of the Three Persons. Or pantheism, but from his perspective it refers to optimism or pessimism, especially pessimism is the true criterion of life according to Schopenhauer. That is why, in this book, he places the religions of Christianity - despite his extreme criticism of them - and Buddhism and Brahmanism at the top of his ladder because they are pessimistic religions that have torn down the curtains that cover the things of the world under false appearances and masks.
