Download or read book The Daily Stoic written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the team that brought you The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, a daily devotional of Stoic meditations—an instant Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller. Why have history's greatest minds—from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson, along with today's top performers from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities—embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers 366 days of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations from the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the playwright Seneca, or slave-turned-philosopher Epictetus, as well as lesser-known luminaries like Zeno, Cleanthes, and Musonius Rufus. Every day of the year you'll find one of their pithy, powerful quotations, as well as historical anecdotes, provocative commentary, and a helpful glossary of Greek terms. By following these teachings over the course of a year (and, indeed, for years to come) you'll find the serenity, self-knowledge, and resilience you need to live well.
Download or read book Lessons in Stoicism written by John Sellars and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can Stoicism inspire us to lead more enjoyable lives? In the past few years, Stoicism has been making a comeback. But what exactly did the Stoics believe? In Lessons in Stoicism, philosopher John Sellars weaves together the key ideas of the three great Roman Stoics -- Seneca, Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius -- with snapshots of their fascinating lives, to show us how their ideas can help us today. In vivid prose, Sellars shows how the works of these three Stoics have inspired readers ever since, speaking as they do to some of the perennial issues that face anyone trying to navigate their way through life. Their works, fundamentally, are about how to live -- how to understand one's place in the world, how to cope when things don't go well, how to manage one's emotions and how to behave towards others. Consoling and inspiring, Lessons in Stoicism is a deeply thoughtful guide to the philosophy of a good life.
Download or read book San Pablo el Espiritu y las Virtudes written by Nelida Naveros and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poniendo a Pablo dentro del mundo de la época helenista judía y griega, este libro examina su nuevo mensaje sobre la posición preeminente del espíritu en su doctrina sobre las virtudes. La pregunta central es ¿cómo el concepto del espíritu se hace la fuente principal de todas las virtudes cristianas en la vida ordinaria de los judíos y gentiles creyentes, y cómo se refleja en sus cartas? El libro examina las siete cartas indiscutibles de Pablo e ilustra la enseñanza fundamental del poder del espíritu en la adquisición de las virtudes y la evitación de los vicios. De hecho, se da un énfasis a las virtudes y vicios reflejadas en cada una de las siete cartas. También investiga como la vida de los creyentes en la comunidad cristiana fluye del Espíritu recibido de Dios. El libro ofrece al lector un estudio completo del entendimiento del término espíritu en las tradiciones helenista judías y griegas dando un enfoque a la manera como Pablo usa el lenguaje filosófico en su exhortación ética, un lenguaje que probablemente habría sido común para muchos de sus oyentes gentiles creyentes, con el fin de ofrecer un entendimiento persuasivo de su exhortación a la vida virtuosa.
Download or read book Lives of the Stoics written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instant New York Times Advice & Business Bestseller, USA Today Bestseller, and Wall Street Journal #1 Bestseller! A New York Times Noteworthy Pick and a "stellar work" by Publishers Weekly From the bestselling authors of The Daily Stoic comes an inspiring guide to the lives of the Stoics, and what the ancients can teach us about happiness, success, resilience and virtue. Nearly 2,300 years after a ruined merchant named Zeno first established a school on the Stoa Poikile of Athens, Stoicism has found a new audience among those who seek greatness, from athletes to politicians and everyone in between. It's no wonder; the philosophy and its embrace of self-mastery, virtue, and indifference to that which we cannot control is as urgent today as it was in the chaos of the Roman Empire. In Lives of the Stoics, Holiday and Hanselman present the fascinating lives of the men and women who strove to live by the timeless Stoic virtues of Courage. Justice. Temperance. Wisdom. Organized in digestible, mini-biographies of all the well-known--and not so well-known--Stoics, this book vividly brings home what Stoicism was like for the people who loved it and lived it, dusting off powerful lessons to be learned from their struggles and successes. More than a mere history book, every example in these pages, from Epictetus to Marcus Aurelius--slaves to emperors--is designed to help the reader apply philosophy in their own lives. Holiday and Hanselman unveil the core values and ideas that unite figures from Seneca to Cato to Cicero across the centuries. Among them are the idea that self-rule is the greatest empire, that character is fate; how Stoics benefit from preparing not only for success, but failure; and learn to love, not merely accept, the hand they are dealt in life. A treasure of valuable insights and stories, this book can be visited again and again by any reader in search of inspiration from the past.

Download or read book S lo Quien Se Siente Amado Puede Ser Educado written by Juan Bosco Abascal Carranza and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Se explica que para la salud humana la satisfacción de "Las Hambres Básicas" de Caricias, Tiempo y Reconocimiento es tan importante como la ingesta de alimentos, oxígeno y agua. Comprenderemos qué son las Endorfinas -la droga de salud, la alegría, el bienestar y el bienhacer. Conoceremos variadas formas de producirlas en nuestro organismo, pero ante todo la que nos proporciona las cinco ganancias más codiciadas: envejecer despacio, mantener un sistema inmunológico invencible, disponer de una gran energía, vivir alegremente, y poder superar cualquier dolor físico o corporal. Esta forma única es la práctica de las Virtudes: Prudencia, Justicia, Fortaleza, Templanza, Fe, Esperanza y Caridad. Queda demostrado que para educar a nuestros hijos en la Virtud, la receta no consiste en "hacer que ellos hagan lo que creemos que ellos deben hacer", ni mucho menos en lograr que "ellos hagan lo que los padres queremos", sino algo muy distinto: que dentro de un "Sistema Incondicional" de Caricias, Tiempo y Reconocimiento, les hagamos vivir la fuerza de nuestro Amor, para que "ellos quieran hacer habitualmente lo que conviene al Bien Común y al Bien Integral" de todos los involucrados en el proceso educativo. Para esto hace falta desarrollar un Liderazgo Transformador: sólo quien se siente amado puede ser educado. Se propone el justo medio entre los dos extremos en pugna: ni moralismo rígido, ni naturalismo hedonista o utilitario, sino del equilibrio entre esos dos extremos. Como estrategias auxiliares se plantea lo que es la Reingeniería de Valores y Virtudes, se analizan las Bases Filosóficas para Jerarquizar los Valores Operantes, Reales; y se propone la sana jerarquía de los Nueve Valores Universales, así como el rechazo de los Contravalores. El libro concluye con una explicación apasionante: ¿Quién Soy Yo? A la vez que se exponen los Fundamentos Filosóficos de la Dignidad de la Persona.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¡Despierto! La Auto-libertad se refiere a cinco elementos fundamentales: agua, tierra, fuego, metal y viento como una perspectiva simbólica y no una creencia sobre los elementos mismos. Simplemente representan una representación de las características compartidas de las cinco pautas hacia la libertad. Espiritual, Físico, Accional, Mental e Industrial son los cinco aspectos de la condición mental. Tener Auto-libertad es estar Despertado al hecho de que existen confinamientos físicos y mentales, y la libertad vendrá al comprender los elementos del confinamiento. Un encierro puede ser cualquier cosa que tenga control o limitaciones sobre alguien o algo. La base de los 5 Elementos son perspectivas simbólicas y no una creencia en los Elementos mismos. Simplemente representan una representación de las características compartidas de las cinco pautas para la Auto-libertad. La referencia a la libertad es la liberación teórica de los 5 estados de confinamientos institucionales físicos y mentales que se rigen por las tradiciones, la sociedad, los principios, las emociones y la identificación. Los elementos naturales se clasifican en cinco puntos de vista discutibles, que no pretenden ser el punto de vista de otra persona también, ¡sino que pretenden ser el impulso inspirador para comenzar su propio viaje hacia la verdad y vivir la mejor vida posible! ¡Poderoso! Pensamiento filosófico de la Nueva Era que cubre los temas principales utilizando elementos naturales y conceptos estoicos.

Download or read book Cause and Explanation in Ancient Philosophy written by Alberto Ross and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers an updated analysis of the use, meaning, and scope of the classical notion of aitia. It clarifies philosophical and philological questions about aitia and offers bold and innovative interpretations of this key concept of ancient philosophy. The numerous meanings and nuances of aitia remain difficult to grasp. Ancient philosophers use aitia to explain the existence and activity of substances, bodies, souls, or gods. Paradoxically, its own definition remains difficult to establish. This book reconstructs some of the most important uses, variants, and scopes of the term aitia within different philosophical perspectives in antiquity, including early Greek philosophy, Plato, Aristotle, Stoicism, and Islamic philosophy. The chapters analyze metaphysical aspects, epistemological issues, and logical implications of aitia. They engage with the most relevant critical literature generated in several modern languages. In doing so, they offer an inclusive and overarching re-evaluation of our assumptions about causation and explanation in ancient philosophy. Cause and Explanation in Ancient Philosophy will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working on Pre-Socratic philosophy, Plato, Aristotle, Hellenistic philosophy, late antiquity, and medieval philosophy.
