What does it actually mean to live a happy life? A free lecture for new perspectives.
We are often sold a version of happiness defined by constant positivity, status, and the next dopamine hit. But the classical philosophers pointed toward something different: a happiness that is steady, deep, and capable of weathering life’s inevitable storms—uncertainty, loss, and difficult choices.
In this opening session of the Know Yourself series, we invite you to explore happiness not as a fleeting emotion, but as a skill to be cultivated.
We will look through the lens of philosophy not as an academic exercise, but as a "lived practice"—a toolkit for navigating the modern world.
In this event, we explore:
- Why we often chase the wrong things (and what to look for instead)
- How to build an inner foundation that external events cannot shake
- Practical insights from the wisdom traditions that help us find clarity in a rushed and fragmented world
You don’t need prior experience with philosophy. Just curiosity, honesty, and a willingness to look inward!
This session sets the foundation for the full Know Yourself journey:
- Living on Purpose
- The Art of Living with others
- Philosophy of History
Together, these classes form a practical path toward clarity, purpose, and deeper connection — with yourself, and the world around you.
