Meditation is a book that can be best described as a Book, with the appropriate words to shake the foundations of your worldview. Written by the fifth and the last oRome’se “good” emperors, Marcus Aurelius, was a benevolent statesman who ardently practiced Stoicism, an ancient philosophy hailing from the Hellenistic school of philosophy. Marcus wrote his Meditations in Greek between the period of 170 A.D. to 180 A.D. while being at war, as a source of tranquility and guidance. It wasn’t initially written as a full-fledged book, in fact in the book he writes as if addressing or reminding himself, his morals, and principles. This book has been the guiding light for many great historical figures, like Bill Clinton, Goethe, and even Nelson Mandela who read it during his 27-years in captivity. With Stoicism still so relevant in the modern circles of motivational thinking, Meditations is also seeing a wave of young generation willingly reading these words of wisdom from one of the greatest emperors of history. With the amount of mental anguish that people suffer today, Marcus’ Meditations might just be what you need, to provide you a resilient and stoic state of mind.
