Building upon many years of privately shared thoughts on the real benefits of Stoic Philosophy, Liam Milburn eventually published a selection of Stoic passages that had helped him to live well. They were accompanied by some of his own personal reflections. This blog hopes to continue his mission of encouraging the wisdom of Stoicism in the exercise of everyday life. All the reflections are taken from his notes, from late 1992 to early 2017.

Sayings of Ramakrishna 68
As a rope that is burnt retains its shape intact, but has become all ashes, so that nothing can be bound with it; similarly, the man who is emancipated retains the form of his egoism, but not an idea of vanity (Ahamkâra).
