I was with my mom when she was taking her last breath and seeing that I’m not afraid of death anymore. I feel like she went somewhere maybe that’s just too calm my broken heart, but wherever she went, I will go and I am not afraid.
LOVED the empathy part. I never even thought about the whole language part and how we just had to rely on trying to sense or feel what are our peers felt. AMAZING
Stoicism is useful to anyone who takes the time to apply it's lessons. Only good can come from controlling your mind and not letting the emotions of others control you. Great collab and information... It's greatly appreciated
I found you after I have been listening to Robert Greene for so long. Thanks to the algorithm of UA-cam it was indeed Jordan Peterson's content that showed me Robert. I am now introduced to you. Each of you have so much to give to the world and have helped have a deeper impact in my life. Greetings from France to both of you, MERCI 🙏🏼
Death is naturally a bit frightening because we don’t know when, where or how. Greene says it so profoundly. It’s the ultimate freeing feeling if you can accept death as the certainty that it is.
MR. CLUTCH! What a way to put the team on your back and clutch it out last night in SF! Awesome lecture from a true Stoic. Guy Raz did an excellent job last night navigating the lecture. We will pray for Robert’s speedy recovery. It was an honor to meet you and to be in the presence of a Master and Robert’s apprentice. Thank you Ryan, you are indeed changing lives for the better. Thank You 🙏
robert green has the most soothing and calming voice i can listen him for hours and his books has really changed my life and my outlook towards life and people ❤
Ryan, in relation to your last newsletter "You Can Keep It To Yourself", I agree. I quote Schopenhauer: "From the tree of silence, hangs the fruit of peace.".
Everyone tells to be empathetic without really meaning it or being confused with other words but first time I am Listening someone who is telling how exactly to be empathetic.
Once I got into stoicism I realized that to bang in life, is just to use gray straight square techniques created by people from the beginning of humanity. So if you want to do something learn some of these techniques.
The Human species leaning deeper to learn about their own mortality I find is very important, not just to know as just some axiom stored somewhere in the brain library but to really feel the and reflect on. I highly suggest reading Ernest Becker's book "the denial of death" because it really humbled me and changed my perspective on what it is to live, feel and act. Modern society is very neurotic and hedonistic nowadays and I think it's party due to our ignorance of our mortality; We push our neuroticism onto others who we feel "lesser than" and we dilute the concept of mortality by covering it up by hedonistic pleasures and delving into worlds which our not our own... Books, movies, video games, doom scrolling, researching our favourite celebrities (not me but some people). It is good to understand the world as an abstract disconnected observation to gain insight but we also need to experience it with humility and mass realness... Carpe diem! Memento Mori! Ps: Yet again I thank you for your Wisdom Robert and Ryan, You seem to be some of the greatest minds of this era; I wish you people safety and protection.

Empathetic conscious intelligence is indifferent like a robot, like our cell intelligence is aware of itself and other cells, they even communicate. Empathy with compassion and sympathy is the ability to feel others suffering and the ability to place ourselves in their viewpoint/standpoint.
Robots and psychopaths are aware of themselves and surroundings, others and objects, they are able to navigate around objects etc. Even aware of others behaviour, but not necessarily their inner feelings. Empathy without compassion is awareness.
I'm almost positive without knowing for sure, but my assumption is that someone has already asked the question here before. What astrological sign is more prone to being Stoic? With Robert Greene talking about empathy, and it being such a key indicator to stoicism, my thought is that Scorpios might be the most classical stoic. Many of the astrological signs are very lacking in what it would take to be a stoic. What is everyone's feeling in this?
I believe Capricorn and Cancer may be the most empathetic. I was married and have been with a Scorpio man for 30 years and he is the least empathetic person I have ever met.
hello dave. as an astrologer i can answer your question. capricorn would certainly be considered the most stoic as saturn rules capricorn and saturn is the planet of discipline, structure, restrictions, boundaries, preparation, commitment, delaying gratification, and solitude. interesting that you brought it up because i have just recently become interested in stoicism being aware that i am enduring two major saturn transits at this time in my life. so i very much need to learn and integrate all of these qualities. btw, a person might not be a capricorn sun sign, but might have their moon in capricorn, or have saturn prominantly placed in their chart..such as conjunct the ascendant or sun.
I think you Ryan are on the path to someday being a wise person. Robert Greene does not impress me, Marcus Aurelius, YES, that is the tale of a truly wise man. Greene has drawn many suppositions that can easily be torn apart.
If you see how a pig reacts in an abattoir when it sees its peers going under the knife, it becomes immediately apparent that animals are VERY aware of their own mortality.
13:15 about fear of death... have to disagree with that... imho nowadays it is more the fear of aging... the awareness of death stops us living in the moment
The Prophet Mohammad (pbuh): Die before death! To achieve self-liberation and become free from worldly concerns while continuing to live in this physical life.
Someone said to me in my ancient philosophy course that ryan holiday is "commercial philosophy" - don't read ryan holiday or robert greene, read actual philosophy please I beg.
The kind of philosophy that Ryan and Robert are trying to share is practical and aplicable in our daily life, might be no for people who studies this area in a deeper way. Also, most of the Ryans philosophies cames from Marcus Aurelios, Seneca, Epictetus,etc. If you are saying this is commercial philosophy, then, all the lessons of this great man are too.
So are you basing this off of what "someone" said? Or are you thinking for yourself? Ive read almost all of Ryans Books as well as source material. Last year I read Meditations, Letters of a Stoic, and Discourses. All 3 major Stoic works and Ryan presents pieces of each and more in a very digestable way. My advice is to read the philosophy first then Ryans works. However, calling it "commercial philosophy" is a bit disingenuous and insulting to the time and effort he puts into his books.
And you are....who again? Get back to me when you've read their books, studied ancient philosophy authors, written a bestseller book or two of your own, and have a successful YT channel - I'll be all ears.
@Gruso I have read ryans book. He just regurgitates ideas in a simplier way. Which is fine if you can't handle the source material, but regardless he has nothing new to say and will not be read in future years as part of the philosophical canon. Which is fine - I was just urge people to get away from all these "self help" philosophers and into primary texts as soon as possible
Ryan and Robert make an ideal team when explaining how to apply Stoicism to our daily lives. Very helpful!
I agree .. life lessons like this is so useful for those that take the time to absorb the wisdom
Robert and Ryan are truly inspiring. None of us can choose who are parents are...but we can choose whose child we become. Thank you both.

I feel the exact same way🤍🤍
You and Greene are both huge inspirations. Thank you both. Every book from both of these authors is awesome.

Passion is attachment, Love is detachment
Robert Greene my biggest teacher 🙏🏻
The sad thing is that we often recognise the value a diamond after its gone.
10:20
That actually comes naturally to me. I've always had that. Weird to actually hear someone mentioning it as positive
Ryan, in relation to your last newsletter "You Can Keep It To Yourself", I agree. I quote Schopenhauer: "From the tree of silence, hangs the fruit of peace.".
passion without love has desperation to it, which can lead to other negative emotions, while love is unconditional and at peace.
❤
Not knowing your relationship with R. Green, I found both of you around the same time and have been following you guys within days.
Thanx Ryan For introducing Robert . Curently i am reading The law of human nature and it is such great book and i am not just reading but studying it.
Everyone tells to be empathetic without really meaning it or being confused with other words but first time I am Listening someone who is telling how exactly to be empathetic.

You're a pure inspiration. I'd be glad if you were my mentor.

@WAM Thank you for your reply. I find it interesting you had dealings with a Scorpio who was not empathetic.
@@elisaquinzi2021 Thank you for your detailed reply.

Well definitely since Biden.
