00:00:30
Hello, I am Ibadia, and you may know
00:00:56
I devote my entire life to study philosophy and science.
00:00:59
Today we are going to meet some great philosophers that I always admired.
00:01:03
🎵
00:01:07
And now we are going to meet the Epicurus,
00:01:17
who explained that happiness is in your inflection.
00:01:19
Good afternoon.
00:01:22
Today in our program we have a special guest,
00:01:24
Epicurus the Philosopher.
00:01:27
Hi everyone.
00:01:30
Welcome Epicurus to our program.
00:01:33
We are so glad to have you here.
00:01:35
Today we are going to ask you some questions.
00:01:39
Are you ready?
00:01:41
Yes.
00:01:43
Okay, so let's start.
00:01:45
When were you born?
00:01:47
I was born in 341 BCE.
00:01:49
Do you have a philosophical school?
00:01:54
Yes, I have a philosophical school where I admit women and slaves.
00:01:57
Have you been in Athens?
00:02:04
Yes, I went to Athens when I was 18 to serve military training.
00:02:07
What is happiness for you?
00:02:14
For me, happiness is having pleasure and avoiding pain.
00:02:17
But for example, if you have an exam and you don't like studying, you have to study.
00:02:23
Yes, you have to study because sometimes you have to endure pain to in the future have a bigger pleasure.
00:02:29
But is it good to enjoy happiness all the time?
00:02:37
No, pleasure is not good, it is not balanced.
00:02:41
Like for example, if you don't like vegetables and you only eat candies and fat foods,
00:02:45
in the future you will be fat and you will have a terrible stomach.
00:02:50
So, I think that the most important thing is to decide how much and how do you enjoy pleasure.
00:02:54
And if you are hungry and you feel a very good fit, can you feel the fit?
00:03:06
If it makes you feel good, yes, but you have to be in mind that in the future you will go to prison.
00:03:12
So, I think that the most important thing is to use your brain to decide what satisfies you the most.
00:03:19
But isn't it a bit selfish?
00:03:28
Yes, it's a bit selfish.
00:03:33
No, it's not selfish.
00:03:35
But then how do you know when an action is good or bad?
00:03:40
An action is good if it makes you feel pleasure and not pain.
00:03:45
But sometimes you have to avoid immediately pleasure and endure pain to in the future have a bigger pleasure.
00:03:53
So, this is all for today. Thanks for coming and be cool.
00:04:04
Thanks for inviting me. It was a pleasure.
00:04:09
Bye, Epikidus. Thanks for coming.
00:04:15
Thanks. Bye.
00:04:21
Bye.
00:04:23
Bye, Epikidus.
00:04:25
And now we are going to meet a philosopher that has found a school.
00:04:38
Please welcome Epikidus.
00:04:43
Hello Epikidus, you are a very important philosopher. How are you?
00:04:51
Very good, thanks. I'm glad to be here.
00:04:55
So, let's start with the interview. How was your job?
00:04:59
I spent my job as a slave in Rome.
00:05:03
And when you were born?
00:05:08
I was born around the year 55 of the Thrice.
00:05:10
In what job did you work?
00:05:17
I used to be a teacher.
00:05:20
So, now we are going to make some specific questions and we want to know your opinion about it.
00:05:23
Perfect. Let's start.
00:05:30
What role do you take your intelligence in the arts and the literature?
00:05:33
I think our intelligence is a very important thing in our life because it lets us see what is in our control and what's not.
00:05:38
What do we do to be happy?
00:05:49
We should reach inner freedom and accept ourselves instead of trying to change things that are out of our control.
00:05:53
Perfect. I also think like that. Let's go to the next question. How do you define happiness?
00:06:03
I think that happiness is staying in accord with nature and unhappiness is the human's ignorance of nature.
00:06:10
Before humans think about nature, then we have to take accordance to nature. So, what relationship we have to keep with nature?
00:06:19
As human beings, we have to have a very good relationship with nature. If we don't have it, we will die. So, it's important to be responsible with nature.
00:06:27
Wow! I wasn't aware of that point of view. So, we are going to end this interview. Do you want to say something to the people that is watching us?
00:06:39
No, but thanks for this show.
00:06:48
Bravo!
00:07:19
We are here with Aristotle, a great philosopher of France and Greece.
00:07:23
Hello!
00:07:28
How are you?
00:07:30
I'm fine. Thanks for being here. We really appreciate it.
00:07:32
It's my pleasure.
00:07:36
Let's begin with our interview.
00:07:38
Okay.
00:07:41
In the first place, taking the right action involves thinking about it. While making a choice, you have to see which benefits you the most.
00:07:51
What should we do to be happy?
00:08:01
We have to enjoy good living conditions, such as good economic resources, health, etc. We also have to learn how to live following the moral virtue, such as temperance or courage. We also have to be as intelligent as possible.
00:08:05
Can we know if an action is good or moral?
00:08:21
A good action takes place when we make the best of our nature. As human beings, we are intelligent, and we know if an action is good because it is the best choice between other options.
00:08:29
What relationship should we have with nature?
00:08:42
We need to have a balanced relationship with nature, because we can learn from it. We know we are not to cut down everything of course, because it doesn't develop our intelligence.
00:08:47
Making a wise choice between many options is what determines your destiny, not chance or luck.
00:08:58
Making a wise choice between many options is what determines your destiny, not chance or luck.
00:09:07
Thank you, Aristotle, for being here.
00:09:27
No problem.
00:09:30
Now we are going to meet the father of philosophy, Mr. Opa Socrates.
00:09:38
Good morning. Hello, how are you, Daniela? Very good, and you, Maria? Well also. We are very impatient to meet our guest today.
00:09:51
Hello, Socrates.
00:10:03
We are very happy to be here with you.
00:10:15
Hi, I'm Socrates. I'm delighted to be here too.
00:10:19
Well, let's get started. Can you tell us a bit about your life?
00:10:25
I was married with Santi. I probably lived in Athens all parts of my life, apart from time that I spent as a soldier in Athens.
00:10:30
I married and I had three sons. After trying it as a student, I decided to spend my time about my life.
00:10:47
When were you born?
00:11:06
I was born in Athens in 470 BC.
00:11:09
So, what can we do to be happy?
00:11:17
The happiness is not physical or external conditions, but when living a life that's right for yourself.
00:11:22
So, can you tell us some of your beliefs?
00:11:32
I believe in the importance of reason to develop ideas and identify roots.
00:11:39
I believe in questioning everything and I am a man of principle who often I keep against the political system that operated in ancient Greece at that time.
00:11:46
I was sent to Trier in 399 BC.
00:12:07
What do you think about philosophy?
00:12:12
I think that philosophy should have universal definitions of common values.
00:12:16
Rejecting moral religions and what is right or wrong does not depend on someone's way or opinions. It is an essential rule.
00:12:25
So, well, that's it. Thank you so much, Socrates.
00:12:38
Okay, so thanks to come to Warsaw.
00:12:44
Goodbye and thanks to you for inviting me to this wonderful program. I hope to see you again soon, girls.
00:12:49
Bye!
00:13:01
Bye!
00:13:07
This philosopher is a man that shows us that to live good we only need a few things.
00:13:14
With all of us, Diogenes!
00:13:21
Hi, welcome back to our show.
00:13:27
Today we have a specialist, Diogenes.
00:13:30
Hello, I'm glad to be here. Thanks for the invitation.
00:13:33
So, we are going to talk about you, not about me.
00:13:35
Yeah, so tell us something about you.
00:13:39
I was born in July around 400 BC. My father was a banker. He and I forged coins.
00:13:42
Can you tell us your name, Ingrid?
00:13:50
Diogenes. And sometimes the people call me Diogenes the dog.
00:13:53
Let's start with some questions.
00:13:58
What should we do to be happy?
00:14:00
We should have less needs.
00:14:03
How do you define happiness?
00:14:05
I think happiness is living according to nature, enjoying the pleasures nature can give you.
00:14:07
Did you have any pets?
00:14:15
I actually live with some dogs.
00:14:17
What relationship should we have with nature?
00:14:20
We would have to agree with nature by enjoying the simple pleasures nature can give you.
00:14:23
Who is an honest man?
00:14:27
An honest man is someone who says what they mean, doesn't steal, doesn't lie and respects their responsibility to society.
00:14:30
How is your life in Athens?
00:14:41
I live like an honest man in the streets of Athens, turning extreme material poverty into a virtue.
00:14:44
I live in a yard instead of a house, and every day I walk the streets with a lit lamp.
00:14:50
What were your belongings?
00:15:00
A clock, a satchel, a leather bag and a bowl.
00:15:02
What is your motto?
00:15:08
What is your motto?
00:15:10
Being silent is how you learn to listen, hearing is how you learn to speak and then by speaking you learn to be silent.
00:15:12
We are approaching to the end. Did you like the show?
00:15:24
Yeah, that was good.
00:15:27
And so far today's program. I hope you like it. See you soon.
00:15:31
See you soon. Bye.
