Content

I am Epiktetos who became İros (a renowned destitute) from slave, invalid, destitute and poverty, however, being lover of the God. Real name of the philosophe which has been known as Epiktetos in history approximately since nineteen centuries is unknown. Epiktetos however is a word, not a name; it means a man who was purchased, slave, servant. Words of Epiktetos had been so convincing and seducing that even hopeless persons had been caused to return life.
