The Isa Upanishad, in a broad sense, concerns itself with the quest for enlightenment and finding one’s self, or soul. It repeatedly emphasizes the importance of this venture and reiterates the plight of those who choose to remain ignorant, or in “blind darkness”; or even worse, those who delight in learning and find themselves in a “greater darkness”. These themes are also explored in various forms in the other extracts. In the Heraclitus of Ephesus extract, for example, there are numerous similarities that can be identified.

Epictetus I really feel that quote is deep I will explain on that topic later on in the paper. He was really ahead of his time. I chose Epictetus because he stated facts in my opinion, also he was a slave, and he stands on what he believes. I feel like as a result of his stoic philosophy teaching that his thoughts live on even in today era. Let me elaborate with the slave accusations.

Heraclitus was born in Ephesus, Greece, and was born between 500 and 400 BCE/BC making him a 6th century philosopher. Heraclitus was more than just a cosmologist, but someone who tried to see what to most cannot be seen. He was a man of thought, and lived life by pursuing experiences, which he perceived to be his only path to find what he observed as nature in his idea of the self vs. nature. When talking about the self and its partner nature, the deepest idea you can take away from the self is more of a task, but not an accomplishment. An example of this ideology is thinking of the task as parenting, using a set of skills to raise a child from infant to adult.

Oedipus the King is one of the most ironic plays ever written. Sophocles, the author, is a famous philosopher of the ancient times The Play is about Oedipus, the king of Thebes, who kills his father and marries his mother. An oracle warned Laius, the king of Thebes prior to Oedipus, that his son would murder him. Accordingly, when his wife, Jocasta, had a son, he exposed the baby by first pinning his ankles together. The infant, who was adopted by King Polybus of Corinth and his wife was then brought up as their very own.
Heraclitus Heraclitus is a Greek philosopher of which not much is known beyond his works. What we do know is that he lived in Ephesus, a city on the Ionian coast of Asia Minor, and that his character has largely been inferred from his writings on philosophical issues. Two philosophical theories come to mind when the name Heraclitus is mentioned: The Doctrine of Flux and the Unity of Opposites. In his espousal of these theories he managed to draw the ire of many -- even Aristotle and Plato, who believed that his hypothesis of the world was one of logical incoherence.
Heraclitus’ statement “You cannot step into the same river twice, for fresh waters are ever flowing in upon you”. This statement defines the constant changes that are being made over time, even if it’s one small change. It also means that things have been different than the day before and it won’t be the same because more or less are being added. Having that change is like being the same person but, with different ideas of thinking or different experiences being learned. From his example, I think he is trying to say that the river flows along the whole river, therefore it’s never the same water but it is the same river.
