Philosophy offers counsel to Man!
-Seneca
Everyone is restless:
Death calls away one man!
Poverty chafes another!
Someone worried by neighbor's wealth!
Another worried by own wealth!
Someone afraid of bad luck!
All of them leads to restlessness
To such a man, Philosophy offers counsel
Through clear light of Truth
To Live according to Nature!
For she has demarcated necessary from superfluity
Live not according to opinions
That waver, hither and Thither
Live according to Nature
Spending your limited time here , on Necessities!
And not on frivolous Superfluity!

Seneca
