Epicurean Philosophy

Welcome to the Epicurean Philosophy, the ancient Greek school of thought that's all about seeking the greatest pleasure for the greatest number. We're not talking about just eating more ice cream, but about living life to the fullest, you know.

Founded by Epicurus, the Epicurean philosophy is all about living a life of moderation and reason, where the pursuit of pleasure is balanced with the consideration of the consequences.

Core Principles:

• The Principle of Pleasure: The greatest good is to be found in the absence of pain.
• The Principle of Moderation: Avoid excessive desires and appetites, lest they lead to unhappiness.
• The Principle of Self-Improvement: Cultivate virtues and skills to become the best version of yourself.
