Beyond Good and Evil: by Friedrich Nietzsche | Complete Edition

“”Beyond Good and Evil”” by Friedrich Nietzsche, while posing as a scathing critique of traditional moral values, reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of true metaphysics. Nietzsche strives to deconstruct the concepts of truth and morality, which he perceives as human constructions lacking absolute foundation. However, this critical approach, although powerful, falls into the trap of relativism and the absence of any higher principle. By denying the transcendent foundations of morality and truth, Nietzsche deprives himself of the possibility of grasping the very essence of metaphysics, which is universal and timeless. True metaphysics, contrary to what Nietzsche seems to suppose, is not a simple intellectual or cultural construction. It is based on the knowledge of universal principles which transcend the contingencies of human existence. This knowledge, which is beyond simple discursive rationality, requires direct intellectual intuition, capable of grasping immutable and eternal realities. Nietzsche, in his effort to overcome the dualisms and moral values he critiques, falls into a subjectivism that, paradoxically, reinforces the very limitations he seeks to transcend. By rejecting any form of higher morality, it opens the way to a relativism where all values are equal, leading to intellectual and spiritual confusion. Such a position, far from liberating the individual, locks him within the limits of his own subjectivity. Nietzschean criticism, while seeking to shake the foundations of traditional morality, fails to recognize the existence of universal metaphysical principles which are beyond human constructions. True metaphysics, as understood in Eastern traditions, incorporates both transcendence and immanence, showing that these aspects are not opposed but complementary. Ultimately, “”Beyond Good and Evil””, although intended to be a liberating work, illustrates the dangers of a Western rationalism disconnected from any true transcendence. True metaphysical knowledge is not limited to the critique of moral values but rises to the contemplation of universal principles, thus providing a path to a deeper and integral spiritual realization. —- ISBN: 9789982471022 | ISBN10: 9982471023 | ISBN-13: 978-9982471022
