Memorize The Stoics

Memorize the Stoics! The Ancient Art of Memory Meets the Timeless Art of Living. The title says it all! Extolling the powers of God-given human reason, Stoic philosophers such as Roman knight Musonius Rufus and his student, the former slave, Epictetus, developed powerful practical lessons for living tranquil, virtuous, loving lives. These lessons were praised by such early Church Fathers as Justin Martyr and Origen. Epictetus's Handbook was later adapted as a moral guidebook for monks. A millennium later, Thomas Aquinas mined the Stoic Seneca's lessons on anger, gratitude, patience, and more for use in his Summa Theologiae. And in our own day, the psychological and moral teachings of the Stoics constitute an "art of living" that fairly cries out to act as compass for the nearly rudderless boat of our disordered contemporary world. But still, it is hard to live out important life lessons if you cannot remember them! In those same early centuries before and after Christ, Greeks like Simonides and Romans like Cicero championed a specialized "art of memory." Early Church Fathers such as Augustine and Jerome championed this also, as did, centuries later, Albert the Great and Thomas Aquinas. The unique virtue of Kevin Vost's book is its wedding of the ancient art of memory to the timeless art of living. In his Handbook, Epictetus exhorts us to "remember" his lessons a full dozen times, and in his own book Vost shows us how to do just this, thereby opening our eyes to unrecognized powers of imagination and memory, and to unrecognized capacities for controlling thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Even so, the Stoics would not mind at all if you found this exercise of imagination and intellect a rather fun thing to do. Enjoy!

Have you ever heard the expression that someone was very "Stoic?" Perhaps the individual had shown great courage in adversity, or managed to stay calm in a stressful situation. This is usually what we think of when we hear the term "Stoic." But the practice of Stoicism is much more than simply being cool under pressure. Stoicism is a means of unmasking all of the falsehoods in life to be able to see them for what they truly are. Stoics at their core are seekers of truth and reason. Stoics were fully aware that most of the fear, anxiety and confusion we have in this life is due to being fixated on the things we cannot control. We regret the past and worry about tomorrow when the only thing within our power is what we can do today. Stoicism teaches us to keep all of these things in perspective and use a rational approach to change and improve what we can, while not needlessly worrying about the rest. This powerful philosophy still speaks to us today, in regard to our own personal storms that we may face in life and helps us eliminate all of the self-deception and negative thoughts that cloud our judgement. In this book you will learn about: ✓ The most prominent characters of Stoic philosophy ✓ Analysis of the 10 principles of Stoicism ✓ How to avoid negative thinking ✓ How to utilize your judgment without being influenced by others ✓ How to overcome your fears ✓ How to be in control in difficult situations ✓ How to develop calmness and resilience If you would like to learn to take on a Stoic outlook when faced with hardship, if you feel you could benefit by being able to resist negative impulses in favor of careful thought and analysis-this comprehensive book tells you everything you need to know.
