How the Stoics Taught Me to Find Peace With Mortality | Philosophy on Death 

After days and hours of planning, writing and editing, I've finally been able to release another video! If you enjoyed, please consider leaving a like to support the efforts of this video. Thank you very much!

close to my heart and what i believe about life and death and how one should lead life

Please never delete this video.

I lost my father a month back, he was the most wise and the kindest person I had in my life. Everyday I feel like walking with a burden on my heart. Thanks to videos like such which helps me find peace in my new reality. "Death smiles at us all, the only thing that we can do is smile back."

"death may be the greatest of all human blessing" ~Socrates Although it is a source of pain, I suppose I can see why the stoics thought the way they did

Awesome video, Love it. Weldone man

WOW! What a beautiful and thought provoking video you made here, my friend. I love how you've done a study of the Stoicism and matched it with the footage used. I have to say the narrations you've done is excellent. Keep up with this videos, because are so interesting

Welcome brother.

This video hit hard bro. As an ICU RN, ive seen where death should have happened and the prolonging of life because the family cannot fathom the thought of allowing their loved in peace because of not wanting to let them go. COVID has definitely pushed me towards this philosophy. Great video my man.

Thank you

Thank you for the video!🙏 You have touched the deepest fear in human existence- death! Thus this subject is still kind of taboo for many especially in the western world unfortunately... Keep your good work!👏👏👏

Thanks for the video. As a person who has anxiety and fears death, this video has made me feel just a bit better. What scares me the most about death is the nonexistent feeling of anything, just like what you said about "everything you built up is gone." But it really isn't about what i built it's more about having control over the consciousness and when that leaves us what do we have left? I've heard that "sleep is like a subscription to death" and that doesn't soothe me much but I believe at the very least when my time comes, I won't know and I take solace in that one day I won't wake up and won't understand what happened. But then again I will think about this for my entire life and worry, but hopefully I can overcome this fear.

Incredible work, m8. It really speaks to me right now. I've always admired the prominent stoicism figures (Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus) since I learned about who they were. I've been dealing with losing my close one recently, together with other typical life challenges. Philosophy of stoicism seems like a good way to get out of this spiral of never-ending obstacles and align my mind with a certain belief. I came to this video from one of your other videos, Gladiator, a movie that depicts strong dedication, mourning and calmness. All of this is slowly forming my new thinking of reality and sense of life, and I'm really grateful for that. Thank you once again for this video!

I highly enjoyed this video I am 33 and have been on dialysis since 19 so I know I don’t have much longer before it stops working and I have a hard time dealing with it

Great work man...awesome

Tremendous video, man. I am heartened to see so many returning to the wisdom of the Ancients. Recently I've seen many people I enjoy online have discovered Stoicism and are embracing it. "RedFrost Motivation" is another channel I really enjoy, and in the last few months all of their videos have been about the Stoics & Stoicism. A move I certainly applaud. When one fully embraces and practices the Stoic discipline: the ways the soul will grow are immeasurable. My father gave me Marcus Aurelius' Meditations 10 years ago. I was at my lowest point: lost everything & everyone that mattered to me (or so I thought), life completely destroyed, all hope for the future vanished. I consulted it's wisdom from time to time without really fully embracing it, though the majority of the books, tv, and movies (many of which you have featured in this video) that have spoken to me throughout my life advocate or hold up Stoic principles to one degree or another. It's been in the last several years, really since the pandemic started, that I made a point to truly learn and understand the Stoic Way. And to start applying those mighty principles in my daily life. I have found tremendous fulfillment in doing so; the practice of moderation and self-mastery is a fruitful undertaking. To move with dignity, honesty, and honor in all things. To see everything that occurs, even hardships, as an opportunity to learn & become a better man. To make sure that my words & deeds are aligned. To apply myself to every single thing I do, every activity, every chore, every adventure, every moment of joy and sorrow. To be a force for good in a world that advocates and rewards the opposite of all of these ideals. I seek to leave nothing on the table. And when my time on this Earth is done, whenever that may be, I will know in my bones and in my soul that I lived a full minute, a full hour, a full day...a full life. That I thrived, and hopefully helped others to thrive too. Keep up this awesome work man.

Wow! Such a great video on this perspective.

Great video my friend, after I've faced many problems throughout 2022 where my father passed away 1 week before my birthday, I had many difficulties with managing the succession, I lost one of my job, my girlfriend dumped me and now my last grand mother learned that she got cancer. I feel like everything is suppose to happen in this world to teach us lessons and make us grow. And that's what I worked through since last year notably on working and developing my physic, working my stoicism, building myself a solid business, learning to love me more and to build the foundations for a great life when I'll have a family. And now the fruits of this work have already started to show with my business, my body, my mind and my hapiness and feel of fulfilment. Stoicism is about death but also about stop being distract by things that don't matter around you and stay ground and keep working and advancing whatever comes in on your path. I love these kinds of videos that deserve millions of views. Keep up the good work man!

Great work!

Incredible stuff man! 👏

God has given us a sense to discern natural law with free will without religion. For lack of reason of love which brings only purpose through Gods divinity to our temporal lives in which only he can fulfill. Such divine creation can only derive from God Jesus almighty whom came as man of God died for our option at redemption to set us free from our sins. Letting go of one’s perception of control and bending a knee to worship one true God then only then can one truly be fulfilled with purpose and spiritual plenitude while effortlessly eliminating fear and anxiety through Gods intercession in our lives. thank you for this wonderful prospective.

Great video. Thanks for sharing such helpful words of wisdom. I also really like the music in the background. Is that from another source or is that original? It’s very soothing.

Quality video man I really dig the vibe

great video

Hey! It's an excellent didactic video. Can you share the transcript of the video. I wish to document it...

Love it baby

👏👏👏👏👌💖 Yes!!!!

When King David died-he said I go the way of all the earth… it’s a door we must all open… live to go through the door that leads to eternal life..that door ,that portal is narrow and difficult to find but it leads to life…. Jesus said -I AM THAT DOOR

Memento mori. 💀
