Upon being challenged for masturbating in the marketplace, Diogenes replied, ‘If only it were so easy to soothe hunger by rubbing an empty belly'. Upon being asked, on another occasion, where he came from, he replied, ‘I am a citizen of the world' (cosmopolites), a radical claim at the time and the first recorded use of the term ‘cosmopolitan'

Thank you for sharing those insightful anecdotes about Diogenes! His responses truly reflect his unorthodox and thought-provoking approach to life. His remark about masturbation highlights his disdain for societal norms and his focus on fundamental human needs. Similarly, his assertion of being a "citizen of the world" speaks to his rejection of narrow identities and his embrace of a broader, more inclusive perspective. It's fascinating to see how his ideas were so groundbreaking and ahead of his time. If you have any more anecdotes or reflections on Diogenes' philosophy, feel free to share!

Yes. It is widely known that we have millions of metaphysical pores all over our skin. So called "metapores". Diogenes through his vigorously ascetic lifestyle has transcended this concept and found a way to acively engage with those metapores. He quite literally opened them. Thus what you are saying makes perfectly good sense. He was metaporically ahead of his time.

If we can’t aspire to be even adequate Cynics, at least let us aspire to be good Stoics. Still let the example of Diogenes light the way to detach from conformity, luxury and pleasure for sake of the true good-even when his methods were radical and mostly unnecessary, but to be still admired for his courage, honesty, integrity and simplicity in his way of living; so to speak just being a master of himself in a sense of the word.

To live in unity with civilization is like clinging onto sufferings, where unity is like a mask to hide our vulnerability and identity. Yet without the mask of unity whole generations can collapse. But the truth is, with the mask we can develop a society at the expensive costs of a stunted character development that emphasise on the growth of our 5 senses - see, touch, smell, hear and emotions. The very modernisation that blinds our conception of a developed character to grapple on different challenges to who we actually are, a rat of small things or a lion of difficult things.
