The Spiritual Teachings of Marcus Aurelius by Mark Forstater

The Spiritual Teachings of Marcus Aurelius by Mark ForstaterWritten as a personal diary for spiritual development, Marcus Aurelius''s "meditations" were not meant for publication nor posterity, yet the Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher has provided inspiration and guidance for more than eighteen centuries. Now, after nearly two thousand years, Mark Forster has adapted the ideas and principles relevant to the Roman world of the second century and has made them accessible to the twenty first century reader.

But what happens when winning starts to feel like losing

With Sally Rippin's characteristic lightness of touch and Eliza Hull's depth of knowledge

He is the enterprise professor in Indigenous Agriculture at the University of Melbourne

will delight all true-believers and fantasy enthusiasts

thoughts of this woman and others intrude - and the true significance of this particular date is revealed

When Anik tells Scarlet about his home far away and of all the things he has lost

he's not too broken up about it
