Summary

In today's episode, despite battling sickness, we delve into Meditation 24 from Book 5 of Marcus Aurelius' 'Meditations'. We explore the profound Stoic concept of our minuscule existence in the vastness of the universe and the flow of time. Marcus prompts us to acknowledge our tiny role in the grand chain of causation, reminding us of our shared substance with the cosmos. This meditation serves as a humbling yet empowering reflection on our place in the world. Additionally, we discuss the importance of practicing philosophy in daily life, moving beyond mere reading to active application. Join us as we dissect these timeless Stoic insights, offering practical 'homework' to truly embody Stoic principles in our journey towards virtuous living. -- Support my work directly on Patreon : https://stoicismpod.com/members Subscribe to my Everyday Stoicism blog : https://everydaystoicism.com Join the Actual Stoicism discord community : https://stoicismpod.com/discord -- Online copy of Meditations (A.S.L Farquharson) : https://link.stoicismpod.com/farquharson Online copy of Enchiridion (Elizabeth Carter) : https://classics.mit.edu/Epictetus/epicench.html Learn more about your ad choices.
