Stoic Spirituality

How Can Expecting Negative Behavior Help You Stay Calm and Compassionate Daily?


Listen Later

Join us as we dive into Marcus Aurelius’ powerful morning meditation from Book 2 of Meditations, focusing on the Stoic practice of pre-meditatio malorum. We will discuss expecting meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous, and surly behavior from others because they cannot distinguish good from evil, while recognizing our own awareness of virtue. This episode explores not judging wrongdoers, viewing them as relatives of the same divine mind, avoiding anger or hatred, and embracing the natural unity of humanity like hands, feet, and teeth working in harmony.
