Our final run through of our three-part series of excerpts from Marcus Aurelius' Stoic writings, "Meditations". This week we look at the pleasure/pain, yin/yang aspect of existence-- Aurelius says to yearn for pleasure and repel from pain is to go against nature: it is to blaspheme!

Is there anything in those ancient religions worth keeping? </p>
