Explore practical philosophies, how they can shape your decisions, inspire growth, and deepen your understanding of the world
Thank you for this very comprehensive article about various forms/schools of philosophy. What is your take on Marcus Aurelius? I have a sign on my fence, "the best response to anger is silence....." It works.
That's amazing!
My take on Marcus Aurelius is rather simple:
-He was Stoic
-One of the best emperors Rome ever saw
-Knew the principle "better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war"
-Practiced a form of mental mediation
I've only read Mediations, but it's a work I find myself coming back to every year or so, as there's much to unpack in such a little book.
