In a not so distant future… you are going to die. So am I. And so will everyone else on this planet. That's a fact. I think about that every single day… and it's given me a sense of freedom knowing that I simply cannot lose this game. Nothing is mine. And I won't take it with me. So why do most people walk around this planet doing things they hate so they can buy things they can't take with 'em? Wouldn't it be more exciting to simply go after that thing your heart truly desires… knowing you simply cannot fail? Luca$.---

This week's series of meditations are based on the classic book, "Meditations of Marcus Aurelius," who was a Roman emperor who ruled from 161-180 A.D. You'll be guided in meditations from his book. His reflections are based on Stoic philosophy which emphasizes living a peaceful life by practicing self-control to attain inner peace by overcoming adversity, and honoring your true nature -- not forcing yourself to be a particular way.

Marcus Annius Verus, (born April 26, AD 121, Rome—died March 17, 180, Vindobona [Vienna] or Sirmium, Pannonia), was a Roman emperor (161–180). He was born into a wealthy and prominent family. Hadrian arranged that Marcus and Lucius Verus be adopted by the designated future emperor Antoninus Pius, who dutifully groomed Marcus as his heir. On his accession, Marcus nevertheless shared power with his adoptive brother as coemperor, though he himself remained the more dominant. His reign was marked by numerous military crises, all the major frontiers being threatened by invasion. Struggles against the Parthians (162–166) were successful, but returning troops brought a devastating plague to Rome. With a concurrent German invasion, Roman morale declined; the Germans were repulsed, but Verus died during the campaign (169). Marcus made his son Commodus coemperor in 177.

It is unlikely that Marcus Aurelius ever intended the writings to be published and the work has no official title, so "Meditations" is one of several titles commonly assigned to the collection. Marcus ruled the Roman empire from AD 161-180. He wrote the 12 books of the Meditations in as a source for his own guidance and self-improvement. It is possible that large portions of the work were written at Sirmium, where he spent much time planning military campaigns from 170 to 180. Some of it was written while he was positioned at Aquincum on campaign in Pannonia, because internal notes tell us that the first book was written when he was campaigning against the Quadi on the river Granova and the second book was written at Carnuntum.

Marcus Aurelius , in full Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustusorig. Marcus Annius Verus, (born April 26, AD 121, Rome—died March 17, 180, Vindobona [Vienna] or Sirmium, Pannonia), was a Roman emperor (161–180). He was born into a wealthy and prominent family. Hadrian arranged that Marcus and Lucius Verus be adopted by the designated future emperor Antoninus Pius, who dutifully groomed Marcus as his heir. On his accession, Marcus nevertheless shared power with his adoptive brother as coemperor, though he himself remained the more dominant. His reign was marked by numerous military crises, all the major frontiers being threatened by invasion. Struggles against the Parthians (162–166) were successful, but returning troops brought a devastating plague to Rome. With a concurrent German invasion, Roman morale declined; the Germans were repulsed, but Verus died during the campaign (169). Marcus made his son Commodus coemperor in 177. Though a man of gentle character and wide learning, Marcus opposed Christianity and supported persecution of its adherents. His Meditations on Stoicism, considered one of the great books of all times, gives a full picture of his religious and moral values.

On this episode of the Gnostic Deluge we continue to look at the words of Marcus Aurelius in his Meditations.  On this episode we look at books seven and eight.  We have really enjoyed learning about Marcus' thoughts and Philosophy and have found a lot to help us in our lives; we hope that our listeners have too.  Enjoy!

On this Episode of the Gnostic Deluge we are reviewing Marcus Aurelius and his Meditations. He was a Roman emperor that ruled the Empire through typical Roman mean, as he was continually working on ruling himself through Philosophy.  Enjoy!   Meditation- Marcus Aurelius Translated by Gregory Hays

Claire and I savor our favorite bits of the Meditations, and talk about the unity of all things, living in the moment, bearing our trials nobly, accepting pain as a part of life, how to think about change, what the duty of humans is, and much more. Also, Nietzsche somehow sneaks in to help us push back on some of Marcus Aurelius' claims, and to ask if Marcus Aurelius loves life enough, when forgetting is important and when it isn't, and how to find a balance between acceptance and hope.     

If you enjoy this podcast, consider buying me a coffee: https://adamstoner.com/support It is in our power to have no opinion about a thing, and not to be disturbed in our soul; for things themselves have no natural power to form our judgments. – Marcus Aurelius (Meditations 6.52) Marcus Aurelius was a Roman emperor and philosopher whose musings on life have transcended centuries. I'm not sure who came up with this next one but I'm sure it'll live just as long… Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and sometimes they're shitty When Jason and David announced changes to their company's culture last month, Basecamp trended in minutes. The key change was that ‘no more societal and political discussions' were permitted by employees on their work platforms. Since that announcement, roughly 30% of the company – one of tech's biggest sweethearts – has resigned. Ironically, Basecamp's announcement had me chasing my tail; I was annoyed at their lack of an opinion and formed my own almost immediately – I disagreed that this a good way to protect employees and do business – and thus began a thought chain that ends here, in this essay and this revelation: I don't need to have an opinion about everything. Opinions conveyed on the social internet tend to favour binary thinking: right or wrong, left or right, for or against. The social internet is optimised for this – even algorithms are just a set of opinions, of programmed biases – which is also why the social internet channels attention to a lot of things that don't matter in greater context. Opinions presented in modern media lack nuance because consumers have been trained to pull social media's slot machine handle, get instant and frequently emotional and visceral reaction to retweet or ridicule, and pull again. This is damaging for countless reasons but the weaponisation of opinion and people who have shot to stardom simply for having hot-takes is nothing new; there have been influencers and opinion leaders for as long as there has been civilisation. What is new is their ability to affect and polarise public discourse beyond what one would consider a reasonable level. Plenty of media space is given to people whose only qualification is that they simply hold vapid opinions: entire sections of newspapers, ITV's Loose Women… None of these people are experts, they're all influencers shooting from the hip. It is exactly this abundance of noise that is the problem with our current discourse. To use an analogy, it is unhelpful to know that individual pixels of a picture may be red, blue, white, black, or green. These neat squares are shortcuts, useful for explaining what's happening within them but they alone cannot help us identify what photo the pixels belong to. Get too close to the individuals and they become a distraction to the wider frame. Singer and Brooking write about the same thing in Likewar – a chapter titled ‘Inundation: Drown the web, run the world' is particularly eye-opening. Charlie Brooker, long before Black Mirror fame, used to write a column in The Guardian. Just before hanging up that column in 2013, he wrote: If a weatherman misreads the national mood and cheerfully sieg-heils on BBC Breakfast at 8.45am, there'll be 86 outraged columns, 95 despairing blogs, half a million wry tweets and a rib-tickling pass-the-parcel Photoshop meme about it circulating by lunchtime. It happens every day. Every day, a billion instantly conjured words on any contemporaneous subject you can think of. Events and noise, events and noise; everything was starting to resemble nothing but events and noise. ‘I don't need to have an opinion about everything' as policy I'm never a fan of policies like the one Basecamp attempted to implement but sometimes policies are needed because it puts in plain-text exactly what is and what is not permissible. I am urging a slow-down – a circuit-break in the flow of information > thought > speech – because, also in the words of Brooker, I've ‘started to view myself as yet another factory mindlessly pumping carbon dioxide into a toxic sky'. Perhaps this isn't a groundbreaking discovery for you but as I've already written about, I've seen friends die on mountains of opinion because having said something publicly they're then too afraid to change their minds. None of what I have written here should be taken as a suggestion that people are not entitled to opinions, that this means I am not opinionated, or that it means I won't continue to share strongly held and supported opinions. Instead, my new personal policy is that I'll only share my opinion when relevant to the thing I'm discussing and where those opinions are backed up by non-opinions: fact. No 3am ‘just ‘coz' hot-takes that are designed to provoke rather than inform and no opinion shared without a credible source to explain or educate about it. I'm doing this for all of our benefit; mine, because as character Erica Albright states in 2010 movie The Social Network, ‘the internet's not written in pencil, it's written in ink' and yours, because in minimising the noise pollution of the flock, we might just hear the beauty of a single tweet.

How should you live as a human being? How do you deal with other people? How do you get out of bed in the morning instead of staying in your blankets? When did corn come to Europe? People have been asking these questions for millennia, and a few have come up with some good answers.Marcus Aurelius (121 – 180 AD) was a Stoic Philosopher and Emperor of Rome. He wrote down his thoughts on the big questions in his journal. He never intended it to be published, the book was his reminder to live life according to the right principles. After his death, people liked it enough to make copies of it and keep it around. In this episode, the humans discuss Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations. Covering the most important lessons they learned and clearing up the confusing parts.Standard Humans is hosted by Aidan Dennehy and Evan.

Those of you who have followed my podcast for awhile know nothing excites me more than talking to people who've lived a very diverse life. I find there some of the most intriguing and best teachers.

In our morning Mishlei shiur (11/4/20 at YBT) we set out to refine our understanding of 18:4, which we've been working on for the past two days. Instead, we learned a new approach from Rashi which happened to tie into an idea we discussed in our Koheles shiur last night, rooted in the Rambam's commentary on Berachos Perek 9 Mishnah 5. This led us to Mishlei 12:25 (and Marcus Aurelius's Meditations 3:16 along with the story of Nachum Ish Gamzu in Sanhedrin 108b-109a), which we started working on and will continue tomorrow.

Marcus Aurelius was a Roman Emperor- and this quick podcast episode takes us through the #stoic philosophy that he practiced throughout his life and how we as creators can use it to get through these times and otherwise as well.   Through his book MEDITATIONS, he takes us through this philosophy. A few pointers that are important 1) Know what you can change and what you cannot ! 2) Keep a journal- to prepare, reflect, and remind. 3) Practice being humble, patient, empathetic, generous....... 4) It's all ephemeral.. what matters is NOW 5) Postpone nothing- you could leave right now...- that's true- we are MORTALS aHah! 6) Live a life of virtue 7) Every adversity is an opportunity PDF of meditations http://www.maximusveritas.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Marcus-Aurelius-Meditations.pdf You can follow us and leave us feedback on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter @eplogmedia, For partnerships/queries send you can send us an email at bonjour@eplog.media.
