I didn't grow up religious, but Star Wars awakened something inside me that I've struggled to understand or channel. This video inspires me deeply. Even if this video has a criminally small number of views, please know that you really helped someone ❤

It's good, just be aware of nietzsche, the ideology that inspire the sith In Nietzsche ideology all should pursue ubermensch and self defeat through pain and suffering just like the sith

I just stumbled across this video, super excited. I have been looking into stoicism and attempting to practice it for the last year or so.

Stoicism is essential to current day PTSD treatment. The VA set me on the path to stoicism, although they never mentioned the actual practice.

So grateful for your in depth dive into stoicism, I haven't heard anyone else speak about it like you did in this video, love the perspective.

I probably spent a little too much time thinking about "what I would do if my favorite cup broke." I think it is a healthy practice when I manage it properly. Thanks for the video! I really enjoyed it.

If you have read Chrysippus of Solos and the other Stoics, you will know that they do not postulate a materialistic monism but an idealistic monism. The Logos is what we call God today (or Brahma, or Ik Onkar, the One, whatever your religion), it is part of nature and the universe but that notion is a form of panentheism and not pantheism. They do not say that God "will be created or destroyed along with the universe" or anything like that. The Logos subsists to everything because it is not reduced to matter - which is its subproduct. Thank you for such an amazing video.

i am really glad have found you. All of us, I think, perceived the correlation between Force and Nature since we were kid! I would ask you what do you think about the sentence of Master Yoda: "If you follow the Path of dark side, It Will dominate your Life Forever". Is it true? It seems there's no redemption if we do wrong choices. I don't know... I found this teaching a bit ambigous. What do you think? Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹 the force may be with you :)

@2327g1k Месяц назад

If you follow the dark side it will dominate your life forever until you decide to take a path out of it. Then comes redemption, which is closely linked to the concept of Oikeiôsis or compassion (disalienation). The "dark side" in Stoicism is alienation (allotriôsis), which is the opposite of oikeiôsis.
