課程介紹
"That all is as thinking makes it so - and you control your thinking. So remove your judgements whenever you wish and then there is calm - as the sailor rounding the cape finds smooth water and the welcome of a waveless bay."
- Marcus Aurelius
Study self-control, discipline, freedom and independence from the written notes of Roman Emperor, Marcus Aurelius.
Written almost 2,000 years ago, 'Meditations' is a collection of private notes never intended to be published publicly. But having survived until the present day, they form the basis of stoic philosophy, a code of principals millions of people live by in our modern world.
"Pain is an evil either to the body - so let the body give its evidence - or to the soul. But the soul can preserve its own clear sky and calm voyage by not assessing pain as an evil. Every judgement, every impulse, desire and rejection is within the soul, where nothing evil can penetrate."
- Marcus Aurelius
Beautifully translated by Martin Hammond, Meditations is also a fantastic tool to study high level English, far above the level you can reach by reading news articles or textbooks.
In our lesson we will discuss these short passages, clearly explaining any unusual vocabulary or difficult ideas.
"Someone despises me? That is his concern. But I will see to it that I am not found guilty of any word or action deserving contempt. Will he hate me? That is his concern. But I will be kind and well-intentioned to all, and ready to show this very person what he is failing to see - not in any criticism or display of tolerance, but with genuine good will."
- Marcus Aurelius
The words of Marcus Aurelius have changed my life, and have had a profound effect on the lives of many of my students. Don’t miss out, order your copy today and take control of your life.
