The Stoa Buddhist Philosophy Group is now meeting online. It offers a non-academic book discussion format where those interested in both Stoicism and Buddhism can come together and learn from the text being read and from each other through the guidance of a Stoic practitioner who is also an experienced Buddhist teacher. Our approach is to learn about the art of living and to strive toward the unfolding of our human potential for inner happiness, flourishing, and enlightenment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We will be hosting our first online Stoa\nBuddhist Philosophy Group Meeting this Wednesday,\nMarch 25, 2020, from 6:00 \u2013 7:00 p.m<\/strong>. We hope you can join us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The topic of discussion will be on Chapter 14: On Personal Values: Seeking Fame<\/strong>, of \u201cA Guide to the Good Life\u201d by William Irvine, and we will discuss Stoic and Buddhist views and practices on this topic. No experience or knowledge necessary<\/strong> with Stoicism or Buddhism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To join<\/strong> the Stoa Buddhist Meeting visit our main web site or click on\nthe link below. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/zoom.us\/j\/108351534<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Meeting ID<\/strong>: 108-351-534<\/p>\n\n\n\n Password<\/strong>: Not required<\/p>\n\n\n\n WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND<\/strong> that you give yourself time to sign-in before 6 p.m. meeting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note<\/strong>, this the first time we are using this platform so please bear\nwith us (there will most likely be some technical difficulties). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Stoa Buddhist Philosophy Group Rules<\/strong>: Practice kind speech, be courteous, and\nabstain from talking about current politics.
