FLEV (Epicurus) MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is FLEV (Epicurus)? FLEV (Epicurus) is an ISTP personality type in MBTI, 9w8 - sp/sx - 954 in Enneagram, RCUEN in Big 5, SLI in Socionics.
FLEV is not so abstract, ILI does not fit, and Si Rol or Si suggestive are rare for a concrete type like Epicurus: - "...those who claim that the soul is immaterial are talking nonsense: if it were so, it could neither act nor experience action, whereas we clearly see that both properties are inherent in the soul... the soul is composed of extremely smooth and round atoms..." - "He possessed the First Physics, which made him take with the utmost seriousness everything related to sensory perception." - "Every feeling, he says, is irrational and independent of memory: neither by itself nor by an external impulse can it add or subtract anything from itself. Nor can it be refuted... Reason cannot refute perceptions, because it is based entirely on perceptions; and one perception cannot refute another, because we trust each of them." - "The very existence of perceptions serves to confirm the truth of the senses. For, in fact, we see, hear, and feel pain, and from this we can deduce the meaning of what is not so clear, starting from the obvious." - "From Epicurus' statements, it is clear that his hardened materialism went to the limit: even hallucinations and dreams are true for him because they are visible, and the soul is made up of atoms, and even knows which ones they are. However, such a stance is natural for the first physics." - "If there is anything in which Epicurus' First Physics is clearly evident, it is in the crude materialism of his philosophy." SP5 and SP7 are somewhat far-fetched for Epicurus, his "hedonism" was not a life of excesses or gluttony as SP7 is often portrayed, but rather a tranquil and peaceful life, avoiding excesses and scandals, simply living a tranquil life. Epicurus wrote: - "...when we say that pleasure is the ultimate goal, we do not mean the pleasures of libertinage or sensuality, as those who do not know, do not share or misunderstand our doctrine; we do not mean the liberation from bodily suffering and mental confusion. For it is not drinking and banqueting without end, nor the pleasures of boys and women, nor the table of fish and other pleasures of luxurious banquets, that make our lives sweet, but only sober deliberation." It does not fit with ILE and Fe Mobilizador, it fits with Fe PoRL: - "Few indications of Epicurus' third emotion have been preserved, but they are there. First, his writings are characterized by dryness, weakness in presentation. Moreover, this type of lack of style was fundamental to the philosopher. In describing the true wise man, as he imagined him, Epicurus said that 'he will not deliver beautiful speeches'." - "Epicurus was sincerely indifferent to politics and even a little fearful of it, stating that the wise man 'will not engage in public affairs'. Epicurus himself, despite all his influence on society, carefully avoided all official positions. Se and Fe of no value.
Biography
The hedonism of Epicurus is so natural to himself that he does not notice it, and is not inclined to think about the material side of life once again. For FLEV, as for all productive physicists, a certain laziness, unwillingness to perform unnecessary actions is characteristic. Epicurus takes from the material world only what he needs, and in the amount he considers necessary. FLEV is a cheerful and resilient person, a little melancholy, passive in unfamiliar situations, sensitive, democratic and internally free.
