Epicureanism is a philosophy based on the teachings of Epicurus.
It started about 307BC.
Epicurus was a materialist who believed that material was made of atoms.
The teaching about atoms was first started by Democritus.
Epicurus forcefully attacked superstition.
According to Epicurus, the gods are passive: They do not intervene in the world.
According to Aristippus, Epicurus believed that the greatest good was to have certain pleasures, and to reach a state of mind where there is no fear and no pain.
Epicureanism is a form of hedonism, which declares that pleasure is the only good there is.
Epicureanism says that the absence of pain is the greatest pleasure; it also advocates a simple life.
These ideas make it sufficiently different from "hedonism" as it is usually defined.
In the Epicurean view, the highest pleasure (tranquility and freedom from fear) was obtained by knowledge, friendship and living a virtuous and temperate life.
Epicurus spoke favorably about the enjoyment of simple pleasures; He also meant abstaining from bodily desires, such as sex and appetites, almost like asceticism.
He argued that when eating, one should not eat too richly, for it could lead to dissatisfaction later, such as the grim realization that one could not afford such delicacies in the future.
Likewise, sex could lead to increased lust and dissatisfaction with the sexual partner.
Epicurus did not articulate a broad system of social morality that has survived.
Epicureanism was originally a challenge to Platonism, though later it became the main opponent of Stoicism.
Epicurus and his followers shunned politics.
Many Epicurean societies flourished in the late Hellenistic perod and during the Roman era (such as those in Antiochia, Alexandria, Rhodes and Ercolano).
The poet Lucretius was its best-known Roman proponent.
By the end of the Roman Empire, having undergone Christian attack and repression, Epicureanism had all but died out, but was resurrected in the 17th century by the atomist Pierre Gassendi, who adapted it to the Christian doctrine.
Some scholars consider the epic poem On the Nature of Things by Lucretius presents in one work the core arguments and theories of Epicureanism.
Many of the papyrus scrolls unearthed at the Villa of the Papyri at Herculaneum are Epicurean texts.
At least some are thought to have belonged to the Epicurean Philodemus.
Tilopa (Prakrit; Sanskrit: Talika or Tilopada, 988–1069) was a tantric practitioner and mahasiddha.

Novaya Zemlya () is an archipelago in the Arctic Ocean in the north of Russia and the extreme northeast of Europe.
The archipelago is made of a north island and a south island; it separates the Barents Sea from the Kara Sea.
There is a narrow channel, called Matochkin Strait that separates the two islands.
Both islands together are about 900 km long; they are between 470 and 1150 km north of the Arctic Circle.
Today, 2716 people live on the islands.
2622 of them live in the capital Belushya Guba (on the south island)
Novaya Zemlya is the northern part of the Ural Mountains and the interior is mountainous throughout.
The northern island contains many glaciers, while the southern one has a tundra landscape.
In July 1954, Novaya Zemlya was designated the Novaya Zemlya Test Site.
It was used as a test site throughout the cold war.
In 1961 Tsar Bomba was dropped on the archipelago.
The Tsar Bomb was the largest nuclear bomb ever made at 50 Mt. By contrast, the largest weapon ever produced by the United States, the now-decommissioned B41, had a predicted maximum yield of 25 Mt.

A chocolate chip cookie is a drop cookie from the United States.
Small portions of the dough are "dropped" from a spoon onto a baking sheet, then baked 10-15 minutes in a medium oven until done.
Main ingredients in the original recipe are flour, butter, eggs, salt, vanilla extract, both brown and white sugar, and chocolate chips.
Variants feature nuts, oatmeal, etc.
Chocolate chip cookies can be made at home or purchased at bakeries and in stores.
The chocolate chip cookie was the accidental invention of Ruth Graves Wakefield.
She and her husband owned and operated the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts in the mid-1930s.
Wakefield prepared meals and desserts.
One day she was without Baker's Chocolate for a butter drop cookie recipe.
She cut a Nestlé's semi-sweet chocolate bar into bits and added the bits to the dough, thinking the pieces would melt as the cookie baked.
The bits did not melt completely, but they did soften.
The result was called the Toll House Cookie.
Nestlé printed the recipe on its packages of chocolate.
Wakefield received a lifetime supply of Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate for her permission to print the recipe.
Chocolate chip cookies are made by using white sugar, brown sugar, flour, salt, eggs, baking soda, butter or shortening, and chocolate chips.
Some cookies optionally add vanilla, milk, or nuts for more flavor.

The Congo rainforest in central Africa has one of the longest rivers in the world, the Congo River.
The tropical rainforest covers most of the eastern part of the Congo.
This forest and its river were the subject of a famous book called The Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad.
Hunting and poaching has endangered many of the animals there, but the jungle itself is not being destroyed.
The basin of the Congo has 70% of Africa's plant cover.
It makes up a large portion of Africa's biodiversity with over 600 tree species and 10,000 animal species.
Many unusual animals live in the Congo Basin.
The two species of chimpanzee, for example, live only in the Congo rainforests.
The large one is the common chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes), and the smaller one is the bonobo (Pan paniscus).
They live in different areas.
Also, gorillas live in the rainforest of central Africa.
The gorillas of the Congo rainforest are called "lowland gorillas".
The hippopotamus is another animal that can be found in the Congo rainforest, usually in the river.
Elephants also live in the rainforest, but only the smaller African forest elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis).
Another interesting animal in the Congo rainforest is the okapi.
The okapi is an interesting species.
It is related to the giraffe, but looks more like a zebra.
There are other endemic or notable mammals, such as Allen's swamp monkey, the dryas monkey, the aquatic genet, and there is also the Congo peafowl.
To the north and south, the forests transition to drier forest-savanna mosaic, a mosaic of drier forests, savannas, and grasslands.
To the west, the Congolese forests transition to the coastal Lower Guinean forests, which extend from western Gabon and Cameroon into southern Nigeria and Benin; these forests zones share many similarities, and are sometimes known as the Lower Guinean-Congolese forests.
To the east, the lowland Congolese forests transition to the highland Albertine Rift montane forests, which cover the Mountains lining the Albertine Rift, a branch of the East African Rift system.
The Congolese Forests are a global 200 ecoregion.
The Congo Rainforest is the world’s second largest tropical forest, spans six countries, and contains a quarter of the world’s remaining tropical forest.
With annual forest loss of 0.3% during the 2000s, the region has the lowest deforestation rate of any major tropical forest zone.
There were lots of important kingdoms in the Congo region before the Europeans came there.
The Kongo Empire was one of these.
The Kongo was a group of small states near the mouth of the Congo river ruled by a king.
That nation gave the river its name.
The Portuguese came to the Kongo for the first time in the 1480s.
Portugal was sailing farther and farther along the coast of Africa to reach India and China on the other side.
At first they made friends with the Kongo nation.
They sent missionaries and ambassadors.
Unfortunately, the friendship did not last.
The Portuguese were more interested in making money than making friends.
The Portuguese treated the people of the Kongo badly.
The king of Kongo became a Christian and took the name Afonso.
He wanted to learn from the Europeans and teach his people, but the Portuguese only wanted to use their friendship with Afonso to gain slaves to sell.
Many people were sold as slaves, and within 100 years the kingdom of Kongo was destroyed.
The Portuguese could not sail up the river because of the waterfalls about 120km from the mouth.
Also, the hot and wet tropical region was uncomfortable for Europeans.
So, the Congo area was not explored or claimed again by any European country for many years.
In the 1850s a reporter named Henry Stanley went to find one of the most famous missionary/explorers in history, Dr. David Livingstone, who had disappeared into the jungle.
Stanley became the first man known to have followed the Congo river across Africa to its source.
He proved that there were many miles of navigable river above the waterfalls.
His discoveries interested King Leopold of Belgium.
The king hired him to build a road around the waterfalls and trading posts along the river itself.
In this way, the king gained control of the river basin.
In 1885, Leopold used his control of the river to claim all of the Congo as his own private land.
The region was named the Congo Free State, but it was not free.
King Leopold only cared about making money from the land.
The people were treated cruelly.
They were forced into slavery to build roads and gather rubber latex.
When they did not do what their Belgian masters wanted, they were often killed.
Missionaries in the Congo began to write letters and articles about the things that were happening.
Eventually the anger over what was happening forced the government of Belgium to take the land away from the king.
It was renamed the Belgian Congo, but Belgium did not do very much to help the people.
Catholic missionaries did set up schools, with the help from the government.
But Europeans ran all the schools, businesses, army, large farms, and government.
Before World War II (1939-1945), almost all the countries of Africa were European colonies.
After the war, these nations began to demand and receive their independence.
Belgium did not want to give the Congo its independence, but after a fight in 1957, they made an agreement.
The Congo became a free nation in June 1960.
