John Vervaeke on the Transformative Power of Stoicism (Episode 6)
Stoa Conversations: Stoicism Applied
The Appeal of Video Games, the Lack of Order in the Real World, and the Role of Religion and Science
This chapter explores the appeal of video games and how they provide a sense of order and meaning through clear rules, narratives, and opportunities for self-transcendence. It contrasts this with the real world's lack of order and meaning, discusses human self-deception, and briefly mentions a meditation app combining stoicism and meditation.
