  • Epictetus was a Greek Stoic philosopher. Epictetus taught that philosophy is a way of life and not just a theoretical discipline. To Epictetus, all external events are beyond our control; we should accept whatever happens calmly and dispassionately. However, individuals are responsible for their own actions, which they can examine and control through rigorous self-discipline.

    It's disappointing that in 2000 years, most people have become far less wise and more foolish, rather than building upon the foundation of the wisdom of the great thinkers and philosophers.
    When we look at the state of the general human mentality today, it's like all the valuable work of our forefathers was for naught.

    Watched a lot of these, and found this one. It's like every passage is spot on with what I have struggled with, instead of half of them being things I haven't as much. It is strange how different every person is, and then how similar they can be too. But Epictetus was certainly speaking to a particular type, definitely.

    It's always like this. Shortsighted people blame everything on others and send them destructive criticism. At the same time, they do not understand and do not want to realize that talented people will sooner or later leave them. I dream about my ancestors from the past distant generations and in one of the last dreams they told me that in the past lives, if to believe in reincarnation according to Buddhism, I was an outstanding scientist and alchemist with the world name. That's enough to ignore the unfair criticism of me. Fools are lazy, they do not read books, do not study philosophy and do not improve their knowledge. That is why they are envious of talents and versatility, multifacetedness of brilliant people.
