I suppose, "philosophically," would it be any different than losing your entire work over any period of time? Would a length of time not just be an extended period of what would otherwise have been an instantaneous one? I don't know. That's just where my mind went.

Unless you are the target of unwarranted persecution, eradication. Something I'm sure Marcus Aurelius didn't have to worry about. Happiness is a state of mind yes but like a wave it comes and goes and could never be static because to be so would invalidate all other states of emotion. Imagine wanting to feel sadness and only being able to feel happy.

I never learned stoicism, I just adopted parts of it eventually after feeling embarrassed for those who overreacted in public. I’ve literally been hired for a job, because the business owner said I was more “even keeled” than the other applicants. I have used it to defeat depression early on and have been able to help a few others defeat depression. The easiest way to teach it, is using the line in this video about controlling how things effect you, vs worrying about trying to control everything that happens to you. Yes, you must attempt to control the world around you, to survive. But when things beyond our control happen, do not let it break you.

Isn't that a wonderful feeling? To find that the things the 'general public' point out in you as a character flaw, something that they see as something you should change and makes you feel a little bit self aware of being 'different' and not as a quality that sets you apart. This affirmation of my natural way I see and respond to the world, as a quality of charcter that makes me at peace with myself and accepting of the fact that I am different, in a good way. And it's ok if others don't get it.

The way you described Stoicism really resonated with me. I thought maybe I wasn’t emotional enough but now I realize I have a stoic mindset. Whenever I upload a video to KZbin I expect the worst, to lose a subscriber or not get any views. So when I gain a subscriber or get a couple likes on a video it makes me feel incredible. When you expect the worst, any other outcome feels phenomenal and fills you with gratitude. And to expect the worst and still go through with an action builds character and tolerance to the world

I have to agree with you about the complete "philosophy" statement. However, I would like to state that all the negativity nihilism gets I view as "passive nihilism", where one is ambivalent to everything. On the contrast though what I call "active nihilism", is more closely related to Zen Buddhism, The act of letting things go the act of not caring as much especially about what other people think of you, it requires taking some action, where as "passive nihilism" is when you become stagnant and stuck. The art of not caring has a fine line to it, but if you're doing it as a means of growth and coming from statements like "What other people say about me is none of my business.", it is powerful.

Everything we experience in life is from the perspective of the mind. Our mind has the power to make us happy or to make us suffer. When it's filled with chaotic, negative thoughts, we suffer. We have to understand that it's our mind working in tandem with the present moment that dictates reality. The quality of one's life depends on the quality of one's thoughts. -Aurelius

35:05 Doing a psychedelic indused ego death is lige playing that dark childrens game where you get your friend to push down on your lungs while your back is against the wall. When you come up, your friend takes the position. The cop out lies within the trust that the *two entities* share between each other, so that you can "get high" off of the near death experience. - the "buddy" represents the independent variable of you trip objectively being the good or bad variety. - the asphixiation symbolises how horrifying ego death feels like. - and I guess, the children represent how we must all approach boundry defying near death experiences with a heavy dose of humility, as children at heart?

We've been at each other's throats since our beautiful shaping of Earth.hink it has a bit of Quantum Mechanicsinvolved.

Man this was truly an incredible presentation and content that has a large amount of insight and wisdom. Well done. It is my goal which I've been working on knowingly to grow and become fully competent in Stoicism by the age of 50 years old but of course continue growing and learning until my last days very end. Even at 47 and lived what seemed 3 lifetimes over the last 7 years which ironically was the first time I truly got to know myself. My awakening at 38 I shall never forget. Part of me wishes to this day I would never have awoken. The other part is hyper aware that I'm super aware and so on. It definitely changes you and you are unable to see life the same way you always had and for me it literally happened overnight. I went to bed my old self and awoke the next morning to a set of silent unsaid unspoken instructions that I answered silently as I sat straight up in my bed but agreed and answered yes to instructions that were never said yet understood. Phenomenal content and it definitely didn't go unnoticed. I think it will take and impact all people different but one thing they will need is to have or be In process of having an awakening and totally and literally seeing thy ego appear to come out and I remember seeing it float away like a balloon but feeling no panic and being at peace. Some really great insight and I'm happy to have watched and listened to your awakening as it's not often I ever hear it spoken and I have tried before to those I know and they look at me as if one of these. I'm crazy. The look at me and their eyes read mass confusion to which I quickly change the subject with and or they will try to understand but I've realized that even if good with words, something's words cannot explain and can only be learned from real life experience. Thanks for sharing!

Zeno became depressed with the loss in his business and to come out of his depression he started reading philosophical books. Once he visited a bookstore and chanced upon a book on Socrates, the philosopher written by historian Xenophon. He started reading it and was very interested in the world of philosophy and philosophers. He asked the shopkeeper as to where he could find such men as mentioned in the books. Zeno was referring to finding the philosophers in flesh and blood. Incidentally at that time one famous philosopher of that town was passing by the bookstore. The shopkeeper immediately pointed towards that man and told Zeno that he was the philosopher type. In those days of Athens it was quite possible to find philosophers roaming the streets as ordinary men with their students. Athens was the hub of philosophy and their resultant schools and academies. Zeno immediately talked to him, became his disciple and started learning philosophy from him. He kept on learning philosophy from different schools of thought but still he could not satisfy his intellectual thirst. He thought there is something lacking in the philosophical world which can be of immense help to society. Thereupon he started thinking upon those issues that ultimately gave birth to the stoicism school of philosophy. Zeno talked about practical wisdom and how we must listen to our human nature and balance our actions with reasons. To bring himself closer to the people and to propagate his philosophical thoughts, Zeno started delivering free lectures in the open marketplace. People started listening to him and slowly he became famous in Athens. The name Stoicism comes from the word “Stoa '' which means open place. This is because Zeno used to talk about his philosophy in the open marketplace. Sometimes some people leave their imprint so deep that every moment of their action becomes memorable. This is an incredible story of self determination on how an individual converted his precarious situation (financial and mental catastrophe) into an intellectual revolution. Zeno of Citium is one of the leaders of the philosophical world who provided a fresh insight into the practical wisdom of philosophy. He is one of the few we can credit with the “leadership of the mind” in the annals of humanity’s intellectual journey.

I draw strength from your awareness and acceptance of responsibility for your own feelings and pain, but your awareness for NOT putting it onto other people and make them responsible for fixing you, understanding your pain, adjusting their lives to accommodate you. Your insightful awareness and acceptance that others have their own pain and path to follow, and don't need yours on top of it is very powerful. It's a hard thing to release the world of obligation for your emotional response to things. But once you get it, it is very freeing. Good job. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

My life was rescued by stoicism. Many thanks for this channel. I appreciate you bringing to my attention that my suffering is unique to me. I refuse to allow my pain to bring another person's misery. Life is difficult enough without our being able to understand another person's suffering. However, we can at least choose not to be involved. Knowledgeability guts Fairness and modality.

I'd say stoicism almost got it right. Instead of doing it for ourselves, do it for the sake of it. Helping others is helping yourself. Just as caring for yourself before you care for others enables you to help others. Just as by feeling good by helping others we can allow ourselves to be helped so that others can feel good. These principles lead past the simple boundaries of contentment and discontentment, and give rise to purpose and intent. To those who chase freedom, or pleasures, or creation, or knowledge, or fairness, we are all after something. Be it a sense of power, a means to feel secure, the desire for love, or anything you can imagine. For one of the best philosophical frameworks for life that I've found, take the ideas of buddhism, stoicism, absurdism, and everything by Alan Watts and Carl Sagan. You'll go down the path of wondering that if anything can have meaning, then nothing really does. You'll learn that the bottom line, the whole reason for everything, is love.

"Just as by feeling good by helping others we can allow ourselves to be helped so that others can feel good" what a great perspective. I have never thought about it like that. I tend to be of a mindset, "i need to do it all myself" not sure if it is to prove something to myself, or if i am hesitant of asking for help in fear of judgement or upsetting someone. But i love to help people, it feels good. and i never thought of letting others help me and allowing them to feel that same feeling.

Indeed, perspective is everything. We should do things for ourselves. We must also let go of so many things like material and ego, in other to focus on things that would help us in future. We must learn how to be supportive and help others in this life. We must be humble and ready to accommodate others because this life is so beautiful and so large to accommodate everyone. Philosophy teaches us about life and it's existence and we must continue to learn and take things easy in this life. Life is too precious, so, cherish it, love it and leave it to the fullest. Remember, your perspective is always everything, be conscious it and you will do well in this life. This is an amazing video. A good one to watch over and over again. I wish that a good number of people could come across this particular video, watch and share it to their lived ones and most importantly and learn more things about life and it's existence. Thank you so much for this great video and please, post more of it.

I don't particularly follow any philosophy I just go with the flow of life. I expect good and bad things to happen. I don't believe in disregarding any of my emotions and feelings. If I'm happy then I'm happy if I'm sad then I'm sad. If I want to get jump up and down with excitement then I will and if I want to cry and complain then I will. I accept all of who I am and what I experience. I am loner who can be social but I need to be alone alot because at my core that's me.

It's funny because I discovered stoicism for myself without ever hearing about it when I was 14. Introvert. Got bullied. Etc. And then I got very selfaware and reflective. I just imagined that every person I ever met could drug me, rape my relatives, torture me, torture and destroy everything I love. So at this point every person that doesn't do it, will just do neutral or good things to you. Now I'm happy at 28 because nothing can faze me anymore. I conditioned myself to solving problems. But I never experience a problem for myself. Just events to approach or solve

Stoicism was described to be turn negative experiences to positive thought. This philosophy is great and I love the fact that it is a way of life that is unavoidable. This is because what will happen will happen. This educative video is knowledgeable and has really changed my mindset. We should do things for ourselves and the fact that free things comes with a cost.

Nietzsche was doing what one should when thinking about something. The pros and cons. The positive and negatives. Which will leave one feeling ambivalent. Torn. Stop overthinking and over analyzing. Its putting expectations on things. Most of which, are unrealistic. Kegley's Principle of Change… It is easier to behave your way into new way of thinking than to think your way into a new way of behaving. And dude, this was a very broad video. It went into many awesome aspects of the conscience. Bravo💪👏👌 The death of the ego or transcending the ego is something I feel we are all going through right now. It's scary when the veil is lifting. You start to question your sanity. You start to disassociate from the reality or story you have been telling yourself. Detaching from all these attachments is uncomfortable, at the least. You start to see attachment is the root of suffering. And desire. The ego attaches to these material things as a way to give the identity some definition. We dont own these things these things own us. Its only when you lose everything that you can do anything. Forgive me for blowing these comments up but this video had stimulated a brain storm.

Good and pleasurable video, I miss the idea (for me experience) of reincarnation. I see life as an eternal school. Life is based on thoughts, thoughts are like invisible quantum particles. They exist from the past can come from others made by the body (hormones) and created and controlled by the mind. Life is transformation. Our cells are reused our mind reused - transformation is creation.

Thanks for sharing your experience with ego death. This is something that I have a goal, but not through psychedelics but actually "self-inquery" a form of meditation that involves looking for the one who is aware, the one who seems like it is the "I thought." There's a fairly large and growing community of "spiritual seekers" who are basically trying to "wake up" from the illusion of separateness. Although not a recent phenomenon, it has gotten more and more popular in the West I guess starting with Alan Watts and Ram Das in the 60s and 70s, and more recently by people like Ekhart Tolle, Adya Shanti, Gangaji, and there forerunners earlier in the 20th century (Ramana Maharshi, Nisargadatta Maharaj, and Jiddu Krishnamurti) among many others. I'm guessing you are very familiar with most of these folks. I'm not a spiritual person, I became an athiest as a teen and have always been very science-oriented, but recent exposure to some of the teachers to talk about this stuff, as well as scientists who suggest there is evidence for some of it (Sam Harris, Donald Hoffman, Bernardo Kastrup, etc.), have made me decide to explore this area. But it is much more challenging to do it via just meditation/self inquiry, then it is with taking a psychedelic - or so I've heard!

Hey there! We seem to have some of the same spiritual teachers. For a long time I was sort of in between atheist and agnostic, believing something was possible but that with so many differing opinions, certainly one can not KNOW. Come to find out, it isn't about knowing. It's about feeling. Psychedelics aren't a necessity for ego death. They are one of multiple vehicles, and likely just the one with the highest horsepower. If you haven't read the Tao Te Ching, it can be done in one sitting, and if done without any external distractions, you will feel it.
