Epictetus on How to Be Calm (The Power of Indifference) (Stoicism) | Einzelgänger
Epictetus on How to Be Calm (The Power of Indifference) (Stoicism) The Stoics believe that regardless of our hardships, we have the choice of attitude. We should approach all things that are not within our control with an indifferent stance. Epictetus spoke of “contempt” toward things not in our control, in contrast to those in our control, such as our opinions, pursuits, and other actions originating from our ability to choose.By being indifferent to things not in our control, we take away the fuel that causes us to be emotionally disturbed. This enables our minds to be tranquil in all circumstances, as Epictetus called it, “in a state conformable to nature.”Check out the full video: https://youtu.be/1d2G7V_Oz5o#indifference #epictetus #stoicism Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.

The Philosopher Who Urinated On People | DIOGENES | Einzelgänger
The Philosopher Who Urinated On People | DIOGENES Diogenes strongly opposed social values and institutions, because, according to him, these are at odds with human nature.He believed that human society infused us with all kinds of unnatural desires that are not only obsolete but also prevent us from being happy. Therefore, we should strip ourselves of these corrupting manmade constructs, so we’re able to live how we’re supposed to live: in agreement with nature.Diogenes’ stance toward everything cultured was very obvious. He practiced what he preached, behaving obscenely, with no regard for convention. It’s no surprise that people called him ‘doggish’, doglike, or simply ‘the dog’. This video explores Diogenes’ philosophy, and what we can learn from his ideas.Cuts, voice, footage, script by Einzelgänger.

All I’m Offering is the Truth | The Philosophy of the Matrix | Einzelgänger
All I’m Offering is the Truth | The Philosophy of the Matrix Check out my novel The Urge: Fall of a Stoic: https://einzelganger.co/urgeThe Matrix, a science fiction film created by the Wachowskis, is probably one of the most influential movies ever made. The story starts when computer programmer Thomas Anderson, operating as a hacker under the alias “Neo,” discovers the truth about the world he’s living in, as he becomes aware of the existence of something known as “The Matrix.”The Matrix is considered a philosophical film that contains many existing philosophical and religious themes, like prophecy, love, truth, karma, the nature of reality, and living in a simulation. But there seems to be a particularly close connection between The Matrix and Plato’s Allegory of the Cave.This video (All I’m Offering Is The Truth | The Philosophy of the Matrix) is a philosophical analysis of the Matrix film. It analyses The Matrix through the lens of Plato’s Allegory of the Cave while exploring the following question: do we, as human beings, actually want the truth?Please note: this video contains spoilers that reveal the plot.Support the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?

Why We Are Weak | The Philosophy of Epictetus | Einzelgänger
Why We Are Weak | The Philosophy of Epictetus Full video: https://youtu.be/p2KHo95QknkWhat matters and doesn’t matter, according to Epictetus, is bound to the reality of our place as reasonable beings in an everchanging environment. This reality Epictetus makes clear in the underlying tenet of his work: ‘the dichotomy of control.’ Some things are in our control, others not. If we manage to concern ourselves with the things in our control, we are in a position of strength. But if we neglect these things and focus on what’s not in our control, we are in a position of weakness.#stoicism #epictetus #stoic Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.
