FEAR OF LOSS: EXPLORING CYNIC MENTAL CONTROL METHODS IN THE SANTIAGUEROS SCHOOL
Abstract
This study examines the psychological and philosophical foundations of the mental control methods employed by the Santiagueros School, focusing on their use of fear of loss as a central mechanism. By analyzing historical texts, instructional methodologies, and anecdotal evidence, the research delves into how the Santiagueros School leveraged Cynic philosophy to cultivate resilience, detachment, and self-control among its adherents. The findings illuminate the intricate ways in which fear of loss was utilized to foster a mindset of independence and strength, revealing broader implications for understanding ancient and modern applications of psychological conditioning and philosophical training.
