STOIC PHILOSOPHY
Stoicism is not just a set of beliefs or ethical claims, but rather a way
of living, involving consistent practice and training, and incorporating the
practice of logic, Socratic dialogue and self-dialogues, contemplation of
death, and a kind of meditation aimed at training one's attention to remain in
the present moment.
The term "stoic" was taken from the "stoa poikile" (meaning
"painted porch" or "colonnade") where Zeno of Citium used to teach.
In modern usage, the word refers to someone who
is unemotional or indifferent to pain, pleasure, grief or joy, and has little in
common with its philosophical roots.
