Irvine, a professor of philosophy at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, writes that Stoicism was one of many competing philosophies (such as the Cynics and the Epicureans) that ran schools to teach a "philosophy of life" to students in ancient Greece and Rome. The Stoics were interested in leading a life of "tranquility," meaning a life free of "anger, anxiety, fear, grief, and envy." To achieve such a life the Stoics developed, in the words of historian Paul Veyne, a "paradoxical recipe for happiness," that included the practice of "negative visualization." By frequently and vividly imagining worst-case scenarios -- the death of a child, financial catastrophe, ruined health -- the Stoics believed you would learn to appreciate what you have, and curb your insatiable appetite for more material goods, social status, and other objects of desire.

Reading the book, I had no trouble understanding how negative visualization could be an effective antidote against "hedonic adaptation." By imagining ourselves to be homeless, for instance, we can reset our desire for a more luxurious home and once again appreciate the roof over our head that we started taking for granted shortly after moving in.

读完《生命安宁》这本书,看着窗外阴沉沉的灰霾天气,心情都忍不住轻快了起来。这本书像个知己朋友,谈论的都是我们生命中实际的困境,并试着告诉我们该怎样去获得安宁与快乐。但它不是那种感悟式的“心灵快餐”,而是以古希腊的斯多葛主义哲学为理论基础,谈论一种关于生命内...

梦、现实与哲学 评《生命安宁》 我们人类真是个奇怪的动物啊,虽然是活在现实的生活与世界中,但经常会把梦作为寄托、慰藉或者动力。心情舒畅、喜悦的时候做美梦,情绪不好、糟糕的时候做恶梦,即便是平平淡淡的时候也经常有白日梦。哲学就是从现实延伸到梦里的一个工具,它帮...

MMM推荐书单。喜欢作者行文模式,还算逻辑严谨主题明确。这套Stoic哲学非常适合现在日常习练。然而不能同意有philosophy of life就比没philosophy of life强这点。尽信书不如无书同一个道理。

Live a stoic life. 1>Negative visualisation; 2>Trichotomy control & internalizing your goals; 3>Fatalist about past and present, not about future. 4>Voluntary discomfort. 如果没有第四点,我会给这本书一星的。

后面太啰嗦。也许是minimalism的始祖?预设价值是人应该追求tranquility,然后谈了negative visualisation等几个方法。消减了很多激烈情绪和欲望后,的确是和buddhism很像了,但也能感觉到christianity的影子,在倒数第三章的确谈到了二者的联系。因为相信有个god,我们的预设意义与价值就不必要随着本性放逐,而是要克服要逆向作为,为一个更高的预设价值努力

略啰嗦,但是理论还是很有意思的,写得也易懂
