Never considered myself religious and during my younger years even dabbled in Atheism as a developing mind is inclined to do in questioning the beliefs they were brought up with.

However, recently I've been exploring philosophy as guidance and found the ideas behind Zen, Buddhism, Stoicism, and others expressed by the likes of Alan Watts, Ram Dass, Marcus Aurelius, and Miyamoto Musashi.

Just curious if anyone relates and if there's an encompassing term for these similar philosophies and individuals aforementioned. Not sure if this the the appropriate forum but I have some free time and wanted to engage in some conversation :)
