About this listen

One of the most significant books ever written by a head of state, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions—a cornerstone of Western thought.

Translation by George Long revised by Duncan Steen.

The book is deep and sensible. Some things I don’t agree but the philosophical reasoning is great and very deep. Many true facts are clearly evolved
Definitely not light - not for bed time reading / listening

Lovely

Written more than 2000years earlier,it has timeless wisdom. If one can follow even few of timeless wisdom contained in the book, one can lift quality of life much above the other human beings.

A great book read out in a good voice and the deep message coming from a genius, who was an emperor and sensitive to the importance of understanding and forgiveness and the value of the mind in personal evolution.I would never have been able to complete the book but this audio book made it so easy to listen and learn.

very wise & true

I have not read any full-length book ever exclusively on Greek Philosophy. This one did serve its purpose. it introduced me to that great and very evolved thinking. Undoubtedly like many others I too found a strong similarity between the philosphy in Bhagwat Geeta and the Upnishads and this one. Going through the book was surely a fruitful journey. However it was too monotonous and robotic a narration which made the experience boring. I always feel should all philosophical expositions have always to bore you down? Well, this book surely does.

Very profound but boring
