This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher and Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius' work, Meditations (or To Myself) It focuses specifically on a passage in book 2, where Marcus details a number of ways in which the soul "injures" or "degrades" (hubrizei heautēn) itself, suggesting that he and we ought to avoid those.
