    Thank you! I so appreciate the creation and posting of this.
    I have been writing many of his quotes in one of my journals. I have been convicted by some of these, inspired by others and motivated by many. I suspect that I’m not the exception.
    The one that really “got” me was at 4:06 I fear that I have been living too much of my life as the third, though I am working on vectoring back to a more proper alignment.

    Platonic idealism is a major school of metaphysics, and their key idea is that of the logos - there is an intellectual/rational order to the world that's transcendent (independent of time and place) and that underlies everything in the universe.
    Thinkers like Newton, Einstein, and Werner Heisenberg and others saw this as a good framework to understand the laws of physics and the mathematical order of the world discovered by science.

    Many of these thoughts are actually from his teacher Sokrates (Σωκράτης) who never wrote anything himself. Besides his brilliant mind we also have to thank Plato for the wisdom he transcended to the world by revealing the brilliance of his teacher. Arguably these 4 people are the most important individuals in human history and were all teachers and students except for Sokrates.

      what are the main differences?

    • @hayden3774
      @hayden3774 4 роки тому +41

      @@SERGE_Tech You can subscribe to both schools of thought, but the main differences are that Platonism is a way to look at life, and Stoicism is a way to live life. Platonism deals with abstraction and idealism; believing that thoughts and ideas encapsulate physical things. I.e.; a tree exists because we know it does and can conceptualize what a "tree" is in our thoughts. This is opposed to Artistotle (a student of Plato) and his realist philosophy in that he believes that a tree exists on its own wether we conceptualize it or not. Artistotle is thought to be the origin of the scientific method.
      Stoicism has really nothing to do with wondering about the nature of the universe. All its concerned with is logical mastery of ones own emotional state by interpretation of perception.
