Can an ancient philosophy teach us how to deal with a modern life?
New Acropolis, Main Centre at Colaba hosted a talk titled “A Stoic Guide to Happiness : A Glimpse into Living Philosophy” on Saturday, 18th February 2023.
The speaker shared the philosophy behind Stoicism and how it remains relevant to our challenging modern times. The lecture explored how courage, philosophy and happiness were intrinsically linked and how each of us can learn to find this within ourselves. We all have an inner compass which can easily guide us if we know to listen to that voice and use it wisely.
Perhaps in a materialistic age such as ours, going beyond the accumulation of material wealth, the pursuit of Truth, Beauty, Goodness and Justice can help bring us one step closer to a more sustainable and inner Happiness.
