What are some good Greek books on self-discipline?

this tweet makes a lot more sense if you understand Peterson's definition of God
But boy is it a busted fucking definition

>> No.11401523

Daily reminder: Peterson's entire understanding of Postmodernism is derived from one book by Stephen Hicks

Start with his youtube, then once you're ready, move on to his twitter. Finally, when you have reached an advanced level of understanding, proceed to reddit.

Of all the ramblings I've read when he talks about God he never gives a definition, just vaguely alluding to Spinoza's defintion without knowing it

12 rules covers most of his video stuff with better clarity and in arguably superior textual form, without losing any of his delivery style (its so stylized you can basically hear his voice in your head as you read)

from there you will be pretty informed in deciding if you want to continue to the denser maps of meaning

He is quite literally right. The unproven axiom is filled in our models by Augustine’s first mover.

>> No.11401630

You can get some useful stuff from his 12 ruled book but I think the greeks and a simple and honest wish for self improvement are a thousand times better.

You start with a 30 second clip of him trying to justify his wishy washy pseudo-christianity, then you move on to actual philosophers and psychologists.

You might as well look for books that give an overview of Jung's work, because that's basically all Peterson does.

I'm on my phone but that older lecture where he's pacing back and forth and talks about everyone having reason to be resentful, is pretty good Peterson.
