A arma secreta para estoicismo
[1] The Stoics also held that certain destructive emotions resulted from errors of judgment, and they believed people should aim to maintain a will (called prohairesis) that is "in accord with nature". Because of this, the Stoics thought the best indication of an individual's philosophy was not what a person said, but how a person behaved.[2] To live a good life, one had to understand the rules of the natural order since they thought everything was rooted in nature.
But, I think thanks to books like The Obstacle is the Way we’ll start to see a resurgence of stoicism amongst the military and Veterans.
The single most important practice in Stoic philosophy is differentiating between what we can change and what we can’t. What we have influence over and what we do not. A flight is delayed because of weather— pelo amount of yelling at an airline representative will end a storm.
El cristianismo es una peste hoy dia, cualquier religion ortodoxa, muchos estamos buscando algo de sentido qual no sea el materialism actual y el nihilismo, pero los religions cristianas apestan.
Esta crença forneceu uma base teórica para o cosmopolitismo. Esta idé especialmenteia similarmente identicamente conjuntamente estimulou a crença numa lei conterraneo que se encontra acima da lei civil e estipulam crité especialmenterio segundo o qual as leis humanas podem ser julgadas.
Stoicism is a Hellenistic eudaimonic philosophy, which means that we can expect it to be influenced by its immediate predecessors and contemporaries, as well as to be in open critical dialogue with them. These includes Socratic thinking, as it has arrived to us mainly through the early Platonic dialogues; the Platonism of the Academic school, particularly in its Skeptical phase; Aristotelianism of the Peripatetic school; Cynicism; Skepticism; and Epicureanism.
In parallel with the above, Stoicism is, in some sense, returning to its roots as practical philosophy, as the ancient Stoics very clearly meant their system to be primarily of guidance for everyday life, not a theoretical exercise. Indeed, especially Epictetus is very clear in his disdain for purely theoretical philosophy: “We know how to analyze arguments, and have the skill a person needs to evaluate competent logicians.
They referred to this idea as prokopê (making progress), and they engaged in a long running dispute with Academic Skeptics about just how defensible this notion actually is.
Hay qual tener en cuenta qual son tradiciones qual perviven varios siglos y de que van cambiando (Acerca todo por influencia del neoplatonismo, como le ocurre también al cristianismo en la misma época).
The last discipline is that of assent, referred to as Stoic “mindfulness†(not to be confused with the variety of Buddhist concepts by the same name, especially the Zen one). I will get back to the concept of assent in the next section, as it is related to the Stoic treatment of the (moral) psychology of emotions, but for now suffice to say that the discipline regards the necessity to make decisions about what to accept or reject of our experience of the world, that is, how to make proper judgments.
Finally, there is also a connection between the Stoics and Kant, particularly in their shared concept of duty which transcends the specific consequences of one’s action. But as Long again points out, the differences are also quite striking: while Kant arrived at his system by a priori reasoning, the Stoics were eminently naturalistic and empiricist at heart.
Philosophy is not just about talking or lecturing, or even reading long, dense books. In fact, it is something o manual para a vida men and women of action use—and have used throughout history—to solve their problems and achieve their greatest triumphs. Not in the classroom, but on the battlefield, in the Forum, and at court.
El objetivo del Manual do Epicteto no es otro de que la enseñanza moral y ética al hombre para llevar una buena vida. Enumera una serie por reglas de que todo hombre deberÃa seguir para ser una persona correcta y feliz y qual en ningún momento se vea afectada por lo “externoâ€.
The best simile in my mind is that of a garden: the fence is the Logic—defending the precious inside and defining its boundaries; the fertile soil is the Physics—providing the nutritive power by way of knowledge of the world; and the resulting fruits are the Ethics—the actual focal objective of Stoic teachings.
