Our Aims
At Epicurus Zone we have three main aims :
1. Achieve Happiness Through Tranquility.
His ultimate goal was to help people find ataraxia — a state of calm, stable peace, free from fear and anxiety.
2. Free People from Fear (especially fear of death and gods).
He taught that death is nothing to fear because when we die, we no longer feel anything.
He also argued that the gods, if they exist, are indifferent to human affairs, so there's no need to fear divine punishment.
3. Teach People to Live Modestly and Wisely.
Epicurus wanted people to recognize that simple, natural pleasures are enough.
By controlling desires and avoiding unnecessary pain, anyone — rich or poor — could live a happy life.
