Invulnerability: On Securing Happiness

Více o knize

The book explores two contrasting approaches to achieving happiness: the Western method of optimizing desires and the Eastern practice of adapting them. Steven Luper delves into philosophical insights from figures like Buddha and Socrates, arguing that fear of death can be mitigated through adaptation. He outlines practical steps for this transformation while acknowledging its limitations, suggesting that while adapting can enhance resilience against life's challenges, it may also lead to a diminished understanding of true happiness.
