Epictetus & The Dichotomy of Control | STOICISM | Einzelgänger

Epictetus & The Dichotomy of Control | STOICISM Full video: https://youtu.be/p2KHo95QknkIf we only focus on what we can control, and let go of everything else, then nothing outside of ourselves can harm us. Now, the question arises: what exactly lies within our control, and what doesn’t? Here’s what Epictetus stated in the first chapter of the Enchiridion, and I quote:“Some things are in our control and others not. Things in our control are opinion, pursuit, desire, aversion, and, in a word, whatever are our own actions. Things not in our control are body, property, reputation, command, and, in one word, whatever are not our own actions.”#epictetus #stoicism #stoic Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5star for new episodes.

We Worry About Problems We Don't Even Have | Eastern Philosophy | Einzelgänger

We Worry About Problems We Don't Even Have | Eastern Philosophy Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/In reality, problems cannot exist without a perceiver, as circumstances aren’t troublesome without someone or something identifying them as such.

Imagine the blue elephant represents our unhappiness – our dissatisfaction with life – hence the color blue.

When Life Falls Apart, Does it Actually Fall Into Place? | A Buddhist Story | Einzelgänger

When Life Falls Apart, Does it Actually Fall Into Place? | A Buddhist Story When we’re hanging onto a root that’s chewed away by mice with a hungry snake below and an even hungrier tiger above us, what can we possibly do to get out of this situation? What is the best course of action when there seems to be no way out? When life falls apart, we might want to remember that everything changes all the time. Like night turns into day, bad fortune turns into good fortune, and a curse turns into a blessing. So, could it be that, eventually, life doesn’t fall apart but... Into place?This video is based on a Buddhist story, that I originally heard from a Buddhist monk named Ajahn Brahm.

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.

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?
