Meditations (150th Anniversary Collection Edition): A Classic History of Philosophy By Marcus Aurelius by Aurelius

“You have power over your mind \- not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” ― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations<\/b> Written in Greek by the only Roman emperor who was also a philosopher, without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius offer a remarkable series of challenging spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the emperor struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. While the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation and encouragement, Marcus Aurelius also created one of the greatest of all works of philosophy: a timeless collection that has been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers and readers throughout the centuries. Aurelius advocates finding one\x27s place in the universe and sees that everything came from nature, and so everything shall return to it in due time. Another strong theme is of maintaining focus and to be without distraction all the while maintaining strong ethical principles such as \x26#34;Being a good man.\x26#34; A True Classic that Belongs on Every Bookshelf!<\/b>
