Topic Scope And Freshness
Key Notes
Jiang presents two historical ways of overcoming the fear that splits the will: knowledge or gnosis, which removes fear by revealing death as passage rather than nothingness, and love, which unifies action because all choice becomes ruled by devotion.
Jiang says fear of death is the main mechanism that lets elites control human behavior by convincing people they are only material beings who disappear at death.
