In this episode, we explore Seneca's Stoic Physics and his understanding of the universe and our place within it. We delve into his belief in the rational and ordered nature of the universe, the concept of "pneuma" as the vital breath that permeates all things, and the interconnectedness of all things in the universe. We also discuss Stoic concepts like "oikeiôsis" and "apatheia" and how they can help us live in harmony with the universe. Additionally, we address common criticisms of Stoic physics and its relevance today, including how it can inform contemporary environmental and social issues. Join us on this journey to explore Stoic philosophy and apply its teachings to our daily lives.
