After reading Freud’s “beyond the pleasure principle” i was extremely confused with the concept of the human instinct towards death so i decided to research it. After reading the wiki page for the text http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beyond_the_Pleasure_Principle, i realized that there was an actual instinct in our society which drives us to our own death. As weird as it sounds, it exists.

To be honest, after i read the wiki page i was more confused then prior to reading it. It says that this specific text from freud is the most confusing one so i felt a little better about myself. “the most unbelievably ambiguous text from freud. So obviously after reading the wiki page i was unsatisfied with the understanding i had of the text or Frued’s state of mind and meaning of the text, so i continued my research. I found this video on youtube which made things a lot clearer about freud. I hope you guys will enjoy it and find it informative. Freud discussion – [kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/S_AbTQ1gcMI" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]
