Sean Stone’s 10 Things to Learn: Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Soul

0:04AI is suddenly taking over the world, technology progressing faster than people can metabolize or understand.

0:11And yet the population doesn't seem to be thriving.

0:13People don't seem happier.

0:15So it's possible that technological progress isn't really progress if the cost is the destruction of our social fabric and an epidemic of unhappiness and loneliness.

0:25Maybe that's why we need to return to the truths that bring meaning to our lives.

0:30Our friend Sean Stone has just written a book about that.

0:33Here it is.

0:33It's called 10 Things to Learn, Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Soul.

0:37It's available now on tuckercarlsonbooks.com.

0:40He joins us now to tell us all about it.

0:43So, Sean, in some ways, it's kind of a striking claim that you're making.

0:46You're saying that the ancient world, a world without, I don't know, space travel or even flush toilets, was wiser in some ways than our world, this technologically advanced civilization that we live in.
