What is Stoicism? If we search, we may find phrases like: It is a philosophy of a good life, letting go of the uncontrollable, living life to overcome obstacles, and being the best version of yourself. All of the above are the main principles of Stoicism. However, there is another important principle that is rarely talked about, or is talked about but only in a narrow sense. What is it? And why has it been overlooked? This episode of Philosophy Shortcut invites you to get to know Stoic philosophy in depth and discuss why Stoicism in our society has been interpreted as a philosophy that is only interested in its own affairs. Invite you to think and ask questions with Pakin Nimmanonrawong and Fang-Rattharoj Chitpana. References: 1. Read the book “Handbook of Life” by Epictytus.
