The speaker discusses the use of Akita's book, which refutes the philosophy of existence and questions the existence of oneself. They suggest that anyone who claims to not exist is considered a fallible claim, and that one's claims are dubious at the same time. The speaker also emphasizes the importance of asking practical questions and bringing up knowledge about PETA to one's friends.

Let me give you another one that that is out there. That is pretty

00:00:02 --> 00:00:06

funny that we used to read in the books of Akita. And I mentioned

00:00:06 --> 00:00:08

this with Mufti Jose Medina Chicago, and he brought this to my

00:00:08 --> 00:00:12

attention and the old books about Peter they used to write, how kapa

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

haka it will move the saboteur to which means the reality of matters

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

are all firmly are all given right established in Givens. So what

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

does that denote? What does that refute? It refutes the philosophy

00:00:22 --> 00:00:23

that questions our own existence.

00:00:24 --> 00:00:28

And how does it do so? Because if you're, if we're debating, and you

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

question your own existence, and you tell me prove to me that I

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

don't exist, right, or that I exist, and you say, for example,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:38

that you have doubt upon your existence. So a claim must be a

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

certain claim, if you doubt your own existence, right? At that

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

point, then your claims are dubious at the same time, so you

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

can't make any claims. So nobody could actually claim that they

00:00:45 --> 00:00:48

don't exist, right? Because if you don't exist, then your claim

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

doesn't exist. And therefore there's no point in discussing it.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

Right? If you have doubt that you exist, that you also have doubt

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

that your claims because this is a philosophical thing, but I'm

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

telling you, some people that are out there that are intelligent,

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

that read, they come across things, and they need answers to

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

these things, right. So don't tell someone say, Well, let's talk

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

about something practical. No, this is the most practical thing

00:01:02 --> 00:01:05

is what kinds of things are going ideas are going to be presented to

00:01:05 --> 00:01:09

forget youth adults as well, when they enter into certain spheres of

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

the university setting or read or you have colleagues that work to

00:01:11 --> 00:01:13

bring up these questions and knowledge about PETA to me, I

00:01:13 --> 00:01:15

think is the most important subject, that we all have to

00:01:15 --> 00:01:20

really be aggressive in studying questions about the diving, it's

00:01:20 --> 00:01:21

every question and we don't even have to answer most of these.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:24

They're already answered in the books, right? We just have to get

00:01:24 --> 00:01:24

access to them.

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
