Epicurean Friends Image Gallery
Welcome to the EpicureanFriends Image Gallery, where our Level 3 and above participants post and share images for public use in the teaching and promotion of Epicurean philosophy. Please limit contributions to those which directly relate and support the philosophy of Epicurus. Choose the topic to display by selecting from the "Categories" listed ( at left on a wide-screen device or in the footer below on a mobile device). To view the Latest Images, click here.
Here is a list which shows how there are different aspects to a life full of pleasure. If you can think of things that could be added to the list, please add a comment here. This shows how life is a full rainbow of adding pleasure and removing pain. And just like they say that eating a rainbow of colors of fruits and vegetables is healthy for the body, we also need to "eat a rainbow" of things that bring pleasure and remove pain. Also, I am thinking about these things coming about due to a kind of "right effort" and taking action. But we aren't struggling painfully to "make" things happen in life, but instead we set an intention, make plans for actions, and move forward with optimism.

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com
What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:
- First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
- Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
- Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
