  A Lifetime Doing Nothing - Tales...

  • 0

  This book is a compilation of teachings told in short stories about the author's attempts to undo the done. He offers this little book as a more ardent, and hopefully lucid, attempt to explain the paramount importance of doing nothing as a way to undo oneself. 
   
  ----------------------------- 
   
  "In my experience, all our problems do indeed stem from this hyperactive and delusional thinking we have acquired over time. 
   
  There is a way to eradicate the light-speed, blind reactions and the habitual confusion. The way is very simple. It boils down to just two words: do nothing. That s it. Do nothing. Sit quietly in a room alone and do nothing. Watch the monkey mind and do not try to fix it or eliminate it or drown it out or engage it. 
   
  This is doing non-doing. Observe the mind, on autopilot as usual, screaming editorial comments from the sidelines like some frenzied play-by-play announcer and do nothing about it. Don't turn the monologue into a dialogue. Do nothing. 'Nothing to see here, folks. Let s keep it moving.'"

  EPICURUS and THE PLEASANT LIFE -...

  Haris Dimitriadis

  Welcome, seekers of truth! 
  This 619-page book intends to reintroduce pleasure as an innate guide to living a healthy and happy life—a simple yet powerful assertion based on empirical data, which stands up to the strictest scrutiny. 
  Along this journey, we will explore evidence throughout the historical evolution of philosophy up to the time of Epicurus, the ancient Greek philosopher who laid the foundations for a philosophy of nature. More specifically, it's the only philosophy that distinguishes pleasure as the inherent human guide to a healthy and happy life. 
  Author Haris Dimitriadis spent 15 years fervently researching the ancient Greek philosopher's teachings, a journey that he believes radically improved his worldview. In this detailed study, the author proposes that fear of pleasure characterizes contemporary society. Dimitriadis writes with open-hearted enthusiasm for his subject and believes that Epicurean philosophy has the power to change lives. With determination and perseverance, you too will find the happiness to which you are entitled. All the "goods" required for happiness are present in the natural world yet regularly overlooked or unappreciated. 
  This book is a labor of love, a vehicle by which to share my personal experience with you. Despite its technocratic nature, it is undeniably a deposition of my soul, brimming with emotion, pleasure, and pain throughout my quest for joy. I am pleased to present an empirically sound, well-documented philosophy of life that serves as a refreshing alternative to the prevailing idealistic culture. 
  And now, the caveat: happiness is indeed a choice. You are privileged to find it out through the lines of this book.

  Psychological Coercion - Using...

  Psychological coercion is a powerful and often insidious form of manipulation designed to force an individual to act against their will or better judgment. It involves the use of mental and emotional tactics to instill fear, guilt, or pressure, making the person feel compelled to comply with demands or expectations. While it does not rely on physical force, the impact of psychological coercion can be just as damaging, if not more so, as it leaves lasting emotional scars that can affect an individual’s sense of self-worth, autonomy, and mental health. 
  At its core, psychological coercion undermines a person’s ability to make decisions freely. It exploits their vulnerabilities—whether emotional, psychological, or social—in order to gain control or influence their behavior. This form of coercion can take many different shapes, including threats, isolation, intimidation, manipulation, or subtle forms of pressure. While the methods may vary, the common thread is the intentional use of mental and emotional tactics to manipulate or control another person’s actions. 
  Psychological coercion is distinct from other forms of persuasion because it involves the use of power and control to manipulate an individual into compliance. In many cases, the person being coerced may not even recognize the pressure being applied to them. This is due to the subtlety with which coercion often operates—it can take place in everyday interactions, with the perpetrator using psychological manipulation in a way that may seem harmless or even caring at first. Over time, however, the individual being manipulated becomes increasingly susceptible to the influence of the coercer, often leading to a loss of personal agency and a sense of powerlessness.
