Although we feel that our actions are free, this freedom is merely an illusion. In reality, our will is determined by the laws of nature. We are free to choose how we act, but we are not free to choose what we want, as our desires are determined by our nature. True freedom does not exist; life is a process continually governed by internal and external forces.

The fundamental drive of life is the ‘will to power,’ the desire of every individual to dominate their surrounding world and others. Power is not merely external control but an inner force that drives individuals to surpass themselves and grow. All systems of morality, religion, and culture ultimately aim to control and tame this will to power, suppressing individual creativity and freedom. However, only those who courageously embrace their will to power can become the Übermensch, transcending the moral constraints of ordinary people and achieving true freedom.

Life, in its essence, is suffering, and desire is endless, for as soon as one desire is satisfied, another immediately arises. This traps us in an endless cycle of pain. Life is a constant pursuit of satisfaction that can never truly be attained, and death is the only exit from this absurd cycle. Any attempt to find happiness in this world is ultimately futile.
