Stoicism gives us the tools we need to be able to endure the worst in life, and the presence to appreciate the best in life. Since ancient times, people have looked to the great stoic philosopher for direction on the way to live a good life, in accordance with reason and virtue. In his new audiobook, Alexander Clavell has compiled a year of wisdom from ancient and modern stoics.

Consisting of fewer than 200 verses written in an obscure if not impenetrable language and style, Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra is today extolled by the yoga establishment as a perennial classic and guide to yoga practice. As David Gordon White demonstrates in this groundbreaking study, both of these assumptions are incorrect. Virtually forgotten in India for hundreds of years and maligned when it was first discovered in the West, the Yoga Sutra has been elevated to its present iconic status.

The philosophy of the Stoics has experienced something of a rediscovery in recent years as certain individuals today, unable to ignore the virtually universal decadence, cowardice, selfishness, and ignorance of the human race as a whole, seek a more challenging and honorable approach to life.

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus was the adopted son of the Emperor Antoninus Pius and ruled from 161 to 180. His Meditations or "discourses with himself" were written in Greek between 170 CE and 180 CE, mostly while he was on military campaigns. Jeremy Collier's translation, while lacking the accuracy of the more famous translation by George Long, has a particular verve and color, imparting a vigor that is often lacking in the original text.

When a meditation teacher has few students, he or she can provide one-on-one instruction. However, with the advent of hundreds or thousands of pupils, it is impractical if not impossible to provide the same level of attention. In movements such as the Radhasoami tradition where there are hundreds of thousands (and sometimes millions) of adherents, the designated master can only spend very limited time with the vast majority of his or her disciples.

The West has taken to meditation with great enthusiasm. We contemplate. We concentrate. We embrace mindfulness techniques and a multitude of mantras. We have undertaken to “do” meditation. The Aspects of Meditation series is comprised of brief, precious texts in which Osho shows us the core of meditation is not about sitting silently or chanting a mantra. It is, instead, a question of understanding the subtle workings of the mind. In book one, Osho reintroduces us to our body, focusing on the “root” of the human, the soul.

The Meditations is a series of personal writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman emperor from 161 to 180 AD, which records his private notes to himself and his ideas on Stoic philosophy. A major theme of Meditations is the importance of analyzing one's judgment of self and others and the development of a cosmic perspective.
