Homer's Iliad is not just an epic narrative about battles and heroes, but also a profound reflection on human choices and their consequences. Each character, such as Achilles, Agamemnon, and Paris, represents a way of "Being" in the world, and their decisions are metaphors for the dilemmas and challenges we face in our lives.
In this video, Paulo Tarcísio, a professor and volunteer at Nova Acrópole in João Pessoa-PB, guides us through a philosophical analysis of the work, exploring the impact of living driven by desire, pride, or the pursuit of wisdom. You will discover how these ancient stories can bring valuable reflections on your own choices and paths in life.
What does war symbolize for our inner life?
How do decisions driven by desire lead us to suffering?
How to apply the teachings of the Iliad to our self-knowledge and personal growth?
If you want to better understand how mythological stories can help in your self-discovery process and in the choices that life presents, this video is for you!
