My life thus far: living in a large metropolis. Crowds. Traffic jams. Jackhammers. Crime. I never feel at ease. I am not living in harmony with my nature. Soon I will change my environment to one that fits my nature. Open spaces, the wind in the trees, animals around, woods, fishing, hiking, actually seeing stars at night, sitting in front of a camp fire. I will follow this path and I will be a better man for it.
I think that a stoic would say, you don’t need to change your environment to find peace. In fact, they warn against seeking solitude in nature as a means of finding serenity. Living in accordance with Nature has nothing really to do with the natural environment or that of a metropolis, but it’s living in accordance with the way Providence unfolds-not resisting what you cannot change.

There are similarities that thread throughout every religious and philosophical approach that focuses on awareness of spiritual reality.

Great knowledge! Sad that there are people who could change their life by developing the faculties that were bestowed upon them but would rather live in misery and ignorance with no growth only death...and a waste of potential
Currently learning the stoic ways. So much to absorb. Thank you for your videos its much easier to grasp the idea of stoicism. However the hardest part is to fully integrate it in your lifestyle.

Another great video! I don't know why exactly, but that dark, ominous music at the end is quite enjoyable. Maybe because I'm seeing the world right now in chaos, but also feel calm & peaceful because I know that I only have power over my own mind & feelings, and not external events. Therefore, whatever darkness comes my way in the future doesn't bother or frighten me. Stoic philosophy couldn't be more timely & useful than right now, with all the madness taking place as the world is on edge.
I have a question: what exactly is moderation, justice, courage, and wisdom, they are sort of vague terms and I would like to know exactly what they mean.
Novice Prince moderation is akin to self control; without superfluity, could be with food, or material possessions. Justice, is doing and standing for what you know is right without bias. Courage in your actions and in keeping your integrity. And wisdom in thinking about things before reacting irrationally, and thinking objectively as possible, also known as common sense. Hope this helps
Each is a particular expression of wisdom. The Stoics were virtue monists meaning they thought there was one virtue: wisdom. From this, the others come. Wisdom is the practical knowledge of correct behavior in a given circumstance ['correct' here means that which is in concordance with the nature of the agent]. Thus, Justice is the knowledge to deal practically with other persons in an appropriate manner; courage is the knowledge to put into practice one's moral beliefs despite the circumstantial dangers and moderation is the knowledge of how much or in what quantity we ought to do/have/use something.
my opinion is that we need to live sustainably & that will lead to happiness. most of people’s problems & unhappiness arise from trying to make money & reach their abstract man made goals. & also health is a big part of it too, you likely are not happy if you are unhealthy, it is very difficult to be happy when you are in pain/sick. & living sustainably/respecting nature is a big part of being healthy. most of the barriers to health revolve around not living in accordance with nature- pollution, meat/carbohydrate/sugar heavy diets(which contribute to pollution), modern jobs(which lead to lack of sleep, unnatural, chronic stress, etc), pharmaceuticals, etc
I literally feed on your videos! Thanks so much for sharing this gold mine with the world. I just finished reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius and am trying to pinpoint the concept of Nature as I find it quite complex too . Would love to hear more of your thoughts on this , are you considering picking up the subject again? Thank you ❤️
If you know the glass beach at california and vladisvostok in russia. The fact that those broken bottle glasses turns nature itself from distractive human waste to beautiful stones of nature.. See the nature itself is good and beautiful
Do a lot of things. Try many sports, hobbies, activities. Speak to people, engage with others. Try things you otherwise wouldn't. Do things which stimulate you, which you like. Personally, I tried my hand at many sports (at least 15 types) in my life, but I made a conscious decision to devote my time and energy to only one. This happened when I was in my mid-30s. My other passions are motorcycling, and creating art. Both of which I also started to do in my mid-30s. Don't be in a rush, experiment, try, persevere - when the time is right, you will know what to devote your energies to, in the final analysis. Also, remember, your interests will change throughout life.
I'd recommend the advice by Julian and Gerhard... try things! Find out what you like, pick something from that and kill it ;). When you're working on something and time flies by and you rather work on it some more instead of going to bed, you know you've found it (although, sleep is important).
The Joy is in the Journey, not the Destination. Have fun trying things until you find something to be passionate about. I read once that we should look to what we loved as a child. Everything we need to know we learned in Kindergarten...to quote an old book. Try taking the Yale Vark test that shows your learning style. There are nine types of intelligence. You will have more than one. Knowing your learning style may offer some insight into how you learn. That may be useful to know. I found my passion was simply Curiosity and a Need to learn. Try explaining that to a lovely bunch of female Sensors sitting around a kitchen table. And I do have one other passion for Ferrets. Hence, a Wynstan Ferret, a Ponce Ferret, a Roamy Ferret, a Juliet Ferret, a Mika Ferret, and a Keller Ferret...then I expanded to mentoring raw feeding and rescuing. Most of my friends and the people I admire are Ferrents. I do admire Einzelganger and his content.
@@Einzelgänger In days of old, when knights were bold, and toilet paper wasn't invented, they rubbed their arse across the grass, and walked away contented.
This material is vital to be taught to youth today. All they know from what they've been taught is to get a "good job" and do better than other people.

Sadly, I know a few, and know of many more, humans who act largely on their emotions. You think very, very highly of your fellow man if you think they act rationally… I would say that many philosophers have actually refuted the 'fact' that humans act rationally - Dostoevskii, for one.
Nature does not care about you! All that matters is consciousness and its contents and more specifically, mental well-being. Nature didn't not evolve the creatures on this planet with mental well-being being its primacy. Nature's primacy, its mandate is only for survival and reproduction. If you doubt this, just look really hard at nature and you will see suffering which is only to accommodate the mandates of survival and reproduction. A lion who experiences hunger pains because it has not eaten is suffering. A gazelle who runs from a lion out of fear and gets caught and eaten is suffering. Suffering of any kind is simply not worth it but nature requires suffering to accommodate its mandates.

Only, good master, while we do admire This virtue and this moral discipline, Let’s be no stoics nor no stocks, I pray, Or so devote to Aristotle’s checks As Ovid be an outcast quite abjured.
I wonder about fear and rationality. Somewhere I think there is an important point missing. Curiosity, I believe, is an instinct. I see that in all animals. It’s a precondition for survival. Fear and curiosity are in opposite dynamic relationship. (Curiosity killed the cat). In opposites just like the parasympathetic system. I think both can be cultivated, nurtured, released. Both are instincts. Both are in accordance with nature. Rationality is perhaps therefore not what separates us from animals only in the “logical” sense, but in a spiritual sense: we can aspire to become something else, another animal. We are not “logically” thinking about being someone else - we aspire to become someone else. Aspiration and rationality is therefore intertwined. And it is this, that perhaps separates us from other animals.
How To Live In Harmony With Nature And Reduce Pollution 1. Many Production Companies Which We Do Not Need Actually For Human Beings Has To Be Stopped We manufacture so many products and it is creating pollution. So if we minimise our products, pollution would be less. We produce so many things which we do not need, like cold drinks, leather products, potato wafers, chips, fruit juices, chocolates, biscuits, pickles, ice creams, etc. Cold drinks, fruit juices, chocolates, biscuits, pickles, ice creams, etc. should be cooked at home only. If we stopped producing this things which are not required for humans, so much pollution could be reduced. If we colour the clothes pollution occurs. So if we don't colour our clothes, the pollution resulting from colouring the clothes can be stopped. Let everything remain in white natural colour. 2. We Should Cook Foods In Its Natural Form We can cook rice and wheat in our homes and eat it. Rice and Wheat is produced in farms. Then it is packed and transported to big warehouses, then wholesalers buy from them and supply to retail shops. But if a manufacturing company makes bread from rice and wheat, then to make bread a manufacturing company has to be set up, machines and working staffs are needed. When a company is built many other things are also needed. Then at last a plastic pack is required to pack the breads. So if we start cooking eatable things in its natural form then we do not need many companies like bread manufacturing company, tomato ketchup, noodles, fruit jam, pizza, burger, etc., the things required for the company and the plastic pack, paper box pack and glass bottles. If done like this, so many companies will not be required and hence less pollution for the world. Also we could save our money like this. If you buy a packet of bread, it would cost you more money than if you cook wheat and rice in home. Previously before industrial revolution, we didn't have technology, but our foods were rich with nutrients. Now we have technology, but our foods are not rich with nutrients. If this is done, then many jobs would be lost. For that many peoples should do farming and they should be given loans if they do not have enough money to start farming on their own. Food, Medicines, Surgeries and Education's should be made free to the world till the world settles down with farming. After that food, medicines, surgeries and education's should be stopped free to the world. Many people should study botany subject so that they have knowledge of plants and they should do farming. Is their any another solution, that humans won't lose jobs and also pollution would decrease. Humans have to take this step certainly instead of going on polluting the earth, making wildlife extinct and also mass extinctions of humans in future. 3. Electricity Pollution We create electricity from many types of sources like coal, water, etc., but it creates pollution. If electricity created from windmill and solar energy then no pollution occurs in the creation process. But still to manufacture windmill and solar machines pollution would occur. As I previously said that if we shut down many manufacturing companies which are producing things which are not needed for humans, then the world would not require so much electricity. If less electricity required, then less pollution generated. 4. Could We Stop Drinking Cow's and Buffalo's Milk Whatever vitamins and nutrients we get from milk, if we can get it from other eatable things, then we can stop drinking cow's and buffalo's milk. As milk has to be packed in glass bottles and plastic packs and then transported to places. All of this can be stopped. For infants whose mother's have died or mother's who cannot breast feed their infants, only for them cow's and buffalo's milk should be given. We use milk in tea and coffee. Instead of milk we must use lime with tea and coffee or just plain tea and coffee. A lime should be cut into a few pieces and cooked with tea and coffee or something else can be used instead of lime.
Shouldn't the question be stated as such, "What am I"? We do possess an acute sense of self awareness but are we different at any significant level than the rest of the animal kingdom? We are capable of not only separating ourselves from nature and we see ourselves as above nature and in its control. Nature is perfect. It's only goal is to produce efficient killers capable of reproducing one another. Is man at the top of the food chain? Aren't we already living according to our "nature"? My two cents!
Maintaining raised garden beds is a great way to keep in touch with nature, improve your body and mind, and help save the planet from some of the destructive monocultures. "Self Sufficient Me" is the only youtube channel you will need for all gardening ✌(once you learn the art, share and help others if you are able💙💚💛)
Although I don’t think everyone should be vegetarian, the waste and gluttony created by processed meats sold by fast food companies should definitely not be consumed.

How did it go? Did you change your environment and feel better already?
I think that a stoic would say, you don’t need to change your environment to find peace. In fact, they warn against seeking solitude in nature as a means of finding serenity. Living in accordance with Nature has nothing really to do with the natural environment or that of a metropolis, but it’s living in accordance with the way Providence unfolds-not resisting what you cannot change.

Instead of milk we must use lime with tea and coffee or just plain tea and coffee. A lime should be cut into a few pieces and cooked with tea and coffee or something else can be used instead of lime.
This idea has Taoism written all over it
Wait, didn't you already tell us how to be stoic?

Surrender to the natural flow of life
Hey, I've got some awesome news that will make your day!
Did that walking man ever reach his goal
These stoics are so much close to Hinduism

Shouldn't the question be stated as such, "What am I"? We do possess an acute sense of self awareness but are we different at any significant level than the rest of the animal kingdom? We are capable of not only separating ourselves from nature and we see ourselves as above nature and in its control. Nature is perfect. It's only goal is to produce efficient killers capable of reproducing one another. Is man at the top of the food chain? Aren't we already living according to our "nature"? My two cents!
Maintaining raised garden beds is a great way to keep in touch with nature, improve your body and mind, and help save the planet from some of the destructive monocultures. "Self Sufficient Me" is the only youtube channel you will need for all gardening ✌(once you learn the art, share and help others if you are able💙💚💛)
Stay close to nature, so much wonderful things to see and learn.

Go vegetarian.. our nature is loving to animals
anonymous guitarist we are omnivores by nature, agriculture is bad for both plants and animals but the world is hungry.
@@Moth-ManRemasters Maybe, humans will have to re-think population levels?
Although I don’t think everyone should be vegetarian, the waste and gluttony created by processed meats sold by fast food companies should definitely not be consumed.
You still do creepy stories?
what creepy stories? I thought his videos were all about stoicism
@@HumansOfVR maybe some old videos he used to make, maybe he deleted them
