- There are certain things in life that are in our control, and there are certain things that are not in our control. But we humans have the tendency to attach everything to ourselves, leading to stress, anxiety, depression, and whatnot. Watch this video about Stoicism to find out what it is and how it changed my life.

Surrender what you can't control and Max out on what you can!
great !
Everyone keeps saying surrender but what is the definition of surrender ?
@@lonewolf8644 must be some punjabi guy
@@epedso4417 😂
Which is the same said in Bhagavadgeeta🙏🏻
I just realized I'm practicing stoicism without knowing anything about it prior. I came to this state of mind after facing a lot of disappointments and misfortunes in my life. I don't think people can start practicing stoicism by themselves only life experience can teach them.
You are right.
Well i did
same !
Same here
I did too 🙌
1) accept what u can't change
2) let go and go with the.flow.of.nature
3) imagine your death .. death meditation .. (it will motivate u to strive for work as u will have a pov that life.is so short)
4)
4th Is death ☠️

5) write a journal if u wish to express something
😮
Varun's not gonna read it but am far too happy to discover his work & thoughts !
Trifecta of reality was just marvellous and the content on his channel is way beyond appreciable !💯🤝
I used to be a stoic before but then I Discovered Bhagvan Gita ..the superset of all mindset
For real, these modern stoic trend will soon be replaced by Bhavat Geeta
Recently discovered you and I must say your content and knowledge is just out of the box and just next level. The way you talk about stuff and explain things I just love that. Keep up the great work
Really same!
The way you explain subject is awesome, i tried to understood it earlier but couldn't do it. Kudos
Such an amazing video dude, thanks a ton, I really appreciate it
Thank you for the deeper insights on Stoicism!
Amazingly explained, Stoicism is a great way to live life.
Changing the perspective is a way to peace. 💆🏻♀️
Thank you so much 👏😊
thankyou for making such amazing and wonder ful creation had been going around with some frustration and this really told me why feeling much better now thankou for much time
Loved it. Thanks you the crazy insights
I'm clearly a deep stoic. Thank you for talking about the aspects of this.
Tbh I am a very satisfied, uninterested, not influenced person who does not want anything from life.. now watching your video I realized there is too much of stoicism in me.. I didn't know the word but I knew how I am functioning. And this completely acceptance of situation of life is also not a good thing because this led to me disinterested in my own life and don't wish to live life because there is nothing to achieve it as I am already satisfied of everything... So actually I am trying to think opposite of what u are proposing.. I am trying to unaccept and change my circumstances and be more curious and trying to set small goals for myself.. trying to be little passionate about things than before.. trying to engage in my life and exploring new things.. I think thats the difference between a passionate and not so passionate person, a pessimistic and an optimist person .. beacuse for u Stoicism is a life changer Philosophy but for people like me opposite of that is what I need .. I think this is because passionate people are too restless they want to accomplish and concern new things while I am always in rest which sometimes makes me frustrated
This was so well put. Thank you! ✨
You just made soo beautiful video covering the basics so nicely........i love Stoic
A lot of things you said had been given in our Yoga and Ancient Indian Spirituality too...
But yeah good to see other places too such thought process and philosophy converge.... Even many Eastern philosophies too it is present....
Yes but the assumptions are different.
Best Example- Adhvaitha Vedanta's application to life leads to this stoicism..
6:36 i think i can describe what you're describing better. its not about not feeling sad or angry but to feel it in its entirety and focus on it and remember exactly how it feels so you slowly become comfortable with it. you seperate emotion and action and simply becomee comfortable with the emotions you do feel instead of suppressing them. just sit and observe your emotion and exactly how it feels and instead of suppressing it focus on it as much as you can and you'll start accepting and processing emotions in the best possible way
these are the learnings I have picked with my life experiences, without knowing it has a name 🙆 so stoicism it is!
Great insights varun bhaiya, Your content is awesome..

All time favourite movie.Songs, acting and story everything is awesome.
Thanks for the video. I am finding one of the biggest solution for life now.
You really added one more value in me , what to say no words bro. Just keep it doing dear . I think i want to meet you.
We have read similar philosophy in childhood in Kabir's poem.He celebrated death of his son and all his bhajan somewhat explain the same thing.
Varun is a gem
I just found out that I practiced stoicism without even knowing about it... Thanks for the perspective

Awesome
Dude, an stoic video with Goku. You got yourself a subscriber.
And if any one wanna know more on stoicism, you have your own "Desi Stoic" 👋🏻
Following this for quite sometime now, without knowing the name for the same!
Very helpful 👍
tq for this
Brilliant ! Rehash old, native wisdom and give it a big, foreign name, and our ever-distracted countrymen, always eager for some new crutch to grasp are game. But on the positive side, there is the hope that this just, might resonate and have some salutary effect on our people.
Very helpful ❤
So much zen!
The Cero soundtrack gave me a deja vu
Stoicism is bad for humanity but really good for one's peace of mind.
1. Acceptance for freedom of mind
2. Don't try to control the things out of your control
3. Write-outlet as punching bag
quality content ✌️
the thing he said about joe rogan about equanimity was written in bhagvad geeta it self. Bhagvad geeta contain everything.
So true
2/8/23
Sages already defined this so called stoicism with state of sadhana with equal reaction to all kind of situation
As the saying goes - Hope for the best prepare for the worst
i never thought u followed this too man cool
I didn't knew that something like this existed. I have been doing it since childhood without knowing that I'm practicing stoicism.
People call me crazy for always thinking worst case scenarios.
Lifelong learnings.
Baba Varun 😂, btw love your content and loved the video !!
Watching this video after AeVy TV. I can find a ton of resemblance in Achna’s and Varun’s delivery
Your content is very knowledgeable and amazing 💯♥️....u deserve more subscribers.....pls make podcasts also it will be very helpful 😊 ✌👍👍
I also strongly believe in Stoic philosophy ✌️🙃
Great video Varun! If someone wants to get started with Stoicism, a good starting point is the book "A guide to the good life" by William B. Irvine
loved

❤
I didn't knew about this but I do this thing lmao
There is a fly on your coke can at 5:25. You can't change it now.
WAS THAT CERO
BACKGROUND MUSIC
Varun you can do gaming we will love to see it please try heroic game
This is like daoism....read this book dao de jing , helped me a lot
The whole stoicism can be relatable to the teachings of bhagwat gita..!
And its amazing..
Or indic philosophy in general
@@sushil6509 yup..
vedanta be like hold my beer..
No matter what, you can't fill the void if you remove the only CONSTANT that innate human nature already recognizes.
On this topic if you want to go deep you can read vedas too which tells you the permanent answers of youur questions
Therapy is expensive, so i watch this video.
Read skepticism and solipsism
varun you should teach physics like for real children would never fear physics
Does this video have same bg music as CERO 2
I was completely catching up until the end part where u mentioned what Marcus said at the start of the his day, don’t u think that it’s completely in contrast from what the law of attraction teaches or at least preaches, that whatever we think and feel the universe will ultimately make it a reality by altering situations around u. What are ur thoughts on it?
hey where can i find the calm India CBT course now?

Need links for calm india
Please try and do a stream where you discuss and play the board game Shaasn.
Nothing is random. Your Karma decides your life. Which also means if we take charge of our actions 100 percent and consciously, nothing will seem random anymore.
There is another similar philosophy called 'wu wei' means 'do nothing'...i can kinda relate both stoicism and Wu Wei
It’s a year old video but if you’re reading my message, please answer this. Am I manifesting low mode around me by meditating upon it?
Your truly underrated.But then I love your content.Ik you won't see this comment,I'll tell again what your doing is different and unique.Valuable best quality content 👏👏👏🙌🙌✨💫💥🔥
I hope you can answer this. On one hand you are trying to practice stoicism in which ideally , you won't be unsatisfied with whatever nature is throwing at you , and on the other hand, you are celebrating the massive increase in life expectancy through human efforts (whose driving factor is unsatisfaction and hunger for more ) .
So which side are you inclined towards ? I know you are into Stoicism to some extent but I am sure not fully, else you won't have wanted and worked for a better life probably.
wow
WTF DUDE 🤯
I am practicing it since last 4 years without knowing I was in depression kind of state bcoz of COVID and backlogs and changes in life.
So I started accepting them and weighting then down only mistake I did was overdo it and not focusing on improving it like in a day I used to think atleast 10 times i have backlogs ,I have work to do . But not do it rather write it get off with it and start wasting time but soon i realised this is not working and then after i started working on it with writing and that habit continue till date .
i noticed no bell today
Varun sir I've been following stoicism for almost 4 years but I recently got a doubt that if u are always thinking about and preparing for the worst-case scenarios won't u be surrounded by negativity all the time? so I started experimenting on the other side of the spectrum like being positive and it tbh freed my mind a little but I think if u fail u do get demotivated but that's not the case for me cause I have good emotional resilience not the best. i just wanna know ur opinion on this and i strongly believe in the "care only about the things in life that are in our control"
For once try hindu philosophy or preach vedanta give that thing some time
