Listen "05. Happiness and Philosophy"
Episode Synopsis
The episode explores the philosophical concept of happiness, drawing connections between ancient thinkers like Seneca and Socrates and later philosophers like Spinoza. It suggests that a focus on seeking happiness often arises from a feeling of existential lack. The author emphasizes the importance of self-knowledge, doubting appearances, and embracing challenges as pathways to achieving this state. Once happiness is found, the text argues, individuals become freethinkers, united by their newfound clarity and projects. The author shares personal experiences of crisis and depression as crucial steps in their own journey toward "waking up," ultimately concluding that true freedom and happiness lie in letting go of what cannot be controlled and focusing on what can.
