Stoicism: Ancient Therapy for Modern Problems

This touches on spirituality, and it's interesting how Stoicism, independent of Indian thought, also had the idea of the Logos and Pneuma, which kinda parallel Vāc (though the Wikipedia article isn't great, the in-depth Vāc teaching is a bit esoteric) and Prāṇa.

I think it's also worth highlighting the idea that a "word" is what gives rise to material universe. As indeed is my experience, true reality is prior to words. Words are never the thing itself, except for the word "word".

(Also, Stoicism really needs to be washed clean of Broicism)
