poor Epicurus. He was one of the least hedonistic philosophers yet Epicureanism took on the meaning of hedonism after his death.
Yes -the epicureans ... ( 1 year ago by triplesharp)
Yes -the epicureans were quite puritanical, e.g. Lucretius. I don't know how they got the reputation for being hedonistic in the normal sense of the term.
I must take issue ... ( 1 year ago by triplesharp)
I must take issue with the statement that Epicureanism lacks poetry and an overarching interpretation of human life. What about Lucretius, perhaps the greatest Latin poet, but also maybe underestimated as an original thinker.

I've heard that Emperor Aurelius tried to decree Life Day as a empirial holiday. True or False?

After failing to ... ( 1 year ago by subwaysleuth)
After failing to break a pesky binge-addiction, using therapy, groups, smartrecovery, Shubentsov (The Mad Russian), I stumbled upon Aurelius' "Meditations" in the library. They make a noble diary, and they will influence everything I do, now: my poems, my music,my behavior, even my Youtube use. Thanks for posting an easy-to-follow introduction to the topic of Roman Stoicism. It has much to say to us, today. ...Sylvester of Times Square

dont mixup hedonism and sensual pleasure i.e. pleasure of the senses the interpretation of mind.
Well Epicureanism ... ( 5 months ago by Stevehtegreatgr)
Well Epicureanism IS a form of Hedonism. Epicurus believed that eudaimonia can only come through the pleasure of the mind, be it short term or -in most cases- long term. Hedonism also tries the same thing, pleasure (which is being interpreted by the mind -remember), it's only that Epicurus found one of the best ways to achieve it and obviously it does not include lots of women, drunkenness etc (in fact those drive to great suffering in the long run, according to Epicurus).

the body language and manner of this guy are that of an 'exper't, quite the opposite of Socrates way of teaching.
i love 'freudian slips' he stumbles for the word 'articulate'
and then sais "I am the eternal 'EQuierer' instead of 'INquirer'
people are funny, "i think therefore Im spam"
philosophy {as a ... ( 3 weeks ago by JUNKYARDOGvideos)
philosophy {as a job-way of making money} defeats the philosophy. this type of 'philosophy' is simply 'labeling' things so that they seem to make sense to humans
it is no philosophy at all. just the gathering of thins to make you feel better before you die {a new adventure,perhaps?}
