On Saturday 4th January 2020, New Acropolis (Pune Branch) hosted a talk titled ‘Stoic lessons from Marcus Aurelius – Philosophy for Daily Life’. Delivered by Yaron Barzilay, National Director of New Acropolis India, the talk encouraged the audience to truly experience Philosophy through its application in day to day life.  Exhorting that Philosophy is “wisdom in action” this session presented insights from the works of the Roman Emperor and Stoic Philosopher which are as relevant in our times today, as they were two thousand years ago.
