In Episode 13 of Good Fortune I tackle death. Death is a huge topic and this podcast tends to come in at around 15 minutes, so please understand that I'll be covering only a glint of a facet of what the philosophy has to say. Also, this episode rests on the foundation of Episode 12, titled "Frightened of Change?" I'd suggest listening to it first. This episode's questions:
- What is death, to the Stoic?
- Why should we continuously confront death?
- How can we come to accept death?
As always, thank you for your support.
By the way, here's a wonderful resource for Stoically contemplating death. It's an entire chapter of Donald Robertson's book, Stoicism and the Art of Happiness. I recommend the chapter and the rest of the book as well.
