Was hoping to create a little corner of the forum for people to share philosophical figures they admire or have influenced them.
I’ll begin with my personal shaman, Jiddu Krishnamurti

Im big fan of j.d., but i found more usable (practical) insights from this talk here: https://youtu.be/e3K5UxWRRuY
Its somewhat fast paced, and i like how its oriented towards creating new paradigm for an individual, instead of dissecting old ones…

Pop in some earbuds and go to bed with this one night. Sleep like a baby
Anyone interested, I’ll be starting part 1 tonight, listening to one part each night and reflect on them. Anyone interested, join me at your leisure 
“Corruption begins where there is self interest.”
Good fucking night lads that was enough for me to stop it at 10 minutes and ponder.

Love Carlin, Hicks, Bruce, Stanhope. Comedians really influenced my outlook on life from a young age. I think I started watching Pryor when I waw 7 with my dad.

I was 8 and I was supposed to be sleeping, but I stood in the hallway and watched Eddie Murphy Delirious. It changed my life. Smoked a joint inside the Comedy Store with Jeff Ross and Ari Shaffiir.
