[Nietzsche]: ‘God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Psyphoria podcasts: God is Dead: And That’s the Root of Your Suffering, Youtube 2025
Nietzsche was not celebrating the death of God. It was not an attack on faith but a brutal diagnosis of the collapse of the certainties that sustained the human soul for centuries. ibid.
You feel that hole. That sensation of being outside of your own body. A disconnection from life. ibid.
We live in a world where the ancient gods have died. ibid.
What was promised to you does not fulfil. ibid.
Everything is noise. Everthing is speed. ibid.
Why do we feel so empty? … This fatigue that doesn’t go away with sleep. ibid.
What is missing is meaning. ibid.
We continue to search for meaning as if it was still there. Nietzsche calls this nihilism. ibid.
It was us with our scepticism, our quest for autonomy, our refusal to accept ready-made truths. It was us who tore up the old maps, and now we are lost in a dark sea. ibid.
Nihilism occurs when all the values that supported your worldview crumble. ibid.
The raw pain of facing the truth, the loneliness of having no answers, the anguish of having to build meaning with your own hands. ibid.
Nietzsche speaks of a suffering that purifies, that transforms. ibid.
