Of Human Freedom - Epictetus on Inner Strength and True Independence In Of Human Freedom, Stoic philosopher Epictetus offers powerful reflections on what it truly means to be free. Drawing from his own experience as a former slave turned teacher, he teaches that real freedom is not found in external conditions-but in mastering our inner lives. Through sharp, compassionate wisdom, Epictetus explains how to rise above fear, anger, and desire by aligning with reason and virtue. Freedom, he argues, begins when we stop trying to control the uncontrollable and start governing our own thoughts and actions. A timeless guide to self-mastery, resilience, and the unshakable freedom that comes from within
