What Jamie wrote
Babauta shares what he sees as five overlapping concepts between Stoicism and Zen Buddhism.
- What We Control
- Reminder of Death
- Loving What Is
- Contemplate Misfortune
- A Higher Perspective
Not a long article. The concepts are covered in simple and plain language. I truly believe if we could do all five of these on a regular basis — we will be happier. Personally I struggle with all of them. I do reasonably good contemplating what I control. Death terrifies me and "last time" meditations are about as close as I can get to that right now.
