I will never be able to thank you enough for introducing me to Seneca
sen/&san=dream ..........
After you enjoy Seneca thouroughly I highly suggest giving Epictetus' Discourses a read!
It's called "Enchiridion". : )
@@andrewdong3875
There's two different works the Enchiridion and the Discourses.
@@MotesTV Thanks for pointing this out. I just looked the book up, you are right.
my god what a gold mine.
With that comment ~

57:52 - “so croak away, exercise your miserable tongues in reproaching good men, open wide your jaws, bite hard, you will break many teeth before making any impression” - Seneca
“No one can fall without drawing someone else down upon him.
And those who go before cause the destruction of those who follow.”
@2:46

Joy wouldn’t feel so good if it wasn’t for pain- 50 cent, a happy life is not possible, there are happy moments, but you will also be tested in the world with resistance, harsh negativity, tough moments, people will die, you will get older and things won’t work as good as they used to, joy/pain and suffering is like the daytime and the nighttime, sometimes there is joy, cherish it while it’s there, and sometimes there is intense brutal pain, realize it will pass
Well said. A bit of what you said reminded me of a quote of Kierkegaard's,
"People find a level of suffering that they can tolerate, and they call that happiness.
'they flock to the schools to hear the virtues of pleasure'
Better than Google translate for sure. Are there any lectures on Seneca?
Wasn't there a video for Aurelius' Meditations on this page?
I've taken it down due to copyright. I'm hoping to rerecord and upload a copyright free one over Christmas.
Good luck, thanks for the timely response :)

thanks.
Please make audio books on Psycho-Cybernetics.
Who the hell downvotes Seneca? Thanks for sharing.
Satanists.
I was cursing all along because I agree too much.
Can you do all ancient writings east and west?
Actually I have the Tao Te Ching ready to go, just not published yet. Is there any other eastern philosophy you would specifically like?
INTPWorld the Analects by Confucius
@@VoxStoica thank you for your amazing work. Maybe something that paints a picture of Jain philosophy would fit in with this theme.
Such a great piece, but a shame the ending is missing.
Missing?
46:42 - Seneca was just flexing at this point tbh, lol!
Too bad more people don’t spend time listening to this, then wasting their time on the stupidity of social media
Thank you kind sir.
Looked at the thumbnail and thought it was a videogame revolving around senece LMFAO
💘
He's got a real chip on his shoulder over people calling him a hypocrit
@Ed no idea what hes talking about.
Is there any difference from the paid version on audible?
No, same content just the convenience of having it on audible app with no adverts.
1:18:15 ✨ Ich Liebe Dich Socrates!
Black screen or changing images would have been nice. I don't want screen burn
Buddha Mack nice
I feel I have just been born again.
This is my favorite UA-cam channel :)
Not bad for a Seneca
Thanks, Robin homo! :)
Sustained happiness is impossible in life, there is no such thing as a ‘happy life’, that’s like saying you’ll win every hand in poker, in fact multiple obstacles arise based on the random cards you are dealt in this world, how will you play your hand?
I agree, to an extent. From a Buddhist perspective you are right. Happiness as we know it is not sustainable. However, I must say that, here, context is important. When the Stoic philosophers talked about "happiness" it did not mean what it means today. Happiness to Seneca and the like meant living in accordance with nature. That meant living by reason and, basically, cultivating the Tao, one might say, to accept equally the Yin and Yang and not allow the inevitable to disturb our frame of mind. It really is rather like Western Buddhism or Taoism.
Happy whatever happens.
BuUuUuUuT~!!
Trumps favorite Philosopher.
I think that would be Diogenes, except without the poverty

Cliff Notes summary (a/k/a spoiler alert): Epicurus sucks
Can you make one of sayings of Prophet Muhammad
Not much wisdom in the quran.
It's called Vox Stoica for a reason, why would they read the Quran/writings of Muhammad?
:)
Jordan Peterson two thousands years ago :D
no.
@dontzenyourselfout How so?
I too believe those who wear woolen clothes are vulgar.
(😂)
How DAAAAAAAAAARE YOU! :-)
Philosophy isn't even taught in schools
Well he shoots down the BLM liberals, and leftism/liberalism in general within the first two minutes. Of course the liberals out there, will foam at the mouth at what I said. That’s an indictment in and of itself. Prove me wrong, with facts, AEB, the words found in these writings, specifically Aristotle. (Seneca sounds a lot like Aristotle, to a point). There’s nothing you can say that I can’t negate complete via his writings. Again, this is why postmodern academia won’t teach the classics. Remember where these writings come from...The West. Take pride in the superiority of your culture and race, and I’ll say with that, the whole EurAsian continent....All great civilizations, and philosophies come from there....Not Africa, at least any part of Africa not touching the Mediterranean. When will you take pride in yourself, and stop the slow black rot that is corroding your civilizations. Which is more evil, a culture and race being taught to hate itself, or that culture and race fighting back. B L do not M, in terms of creating a great civilization, or great thought ( the former can’t arise without the latter). There’s a reason all great cultures come from Eurasia, India, everywhere, except Africa. And, geography is a poor excuse; it’s biology, not environment. If BLM, then they would adapt to that environment and overcome any of its hardships. But they haven’t, because they lack the brains to do so. That’s just fact. History and all existing culture proves it. If it where nailed to your skull, nailed between the eyes, it would’t make the facts clearer, but it would take that to get even a single neuron to fire in the brains of white liberals, and that wouldn’t be enough for them to see the self evident.
@Richard W. You are really a piece of work you sound like a real racist.
I'd say he shuts down politics in general with that statement tbh
