""224 MARCUS AURELIUSof man to the beast ? Ifsuperiority this colourless absorptioninto Mind again seems but a poor travesty of an immortalhope, let us at least not find fault with Marcus. He believedthe soul returned to God who gaveit and not one of us;to-day can say more. "He whom the gods lent us, hasrejoined the gods."
CHAPTEK VTHE UNIVERSE, ETERNAL AND DIVINE, ANDTRANSIENT AND CONTEMPTIBLE(A) THE PEKPETUAL FLUX AND MONOTONY OF THEWORLD-PROCESSANALYSIS1. Hard to reconcile his devotion to God, and his hate or scornof the universe which embodies Him (how can whole be goodwhen parts contemptible ?).2. The One Imperishable Nature, both transient and ever thesame ;dignity and vanity of the world.3. His manifold titles (does it betray vacillation from personalprovidence to scientific fatalism ?).4. Texts on the fleeting yet monotonous character of the CosmicProcess.1. DIFFICULT as it is to sever the objective scienceof Marcus from the subjective survey of his own nature(for the former is but the reflex of the latter), we mustnevertheless attempt now to examine with dispassionatedetachment his views on the Universe and the Sourceof Being. We see that Marcus, in common with thegreater number of speculators in the second century, isat heart a Gnostic. He is only saved by his otiose andtheoretical Monism from the conclusion of St. JohnJohn v. 19 :lâîev Be OTI etc rov Seov K.eVyu,ez>(1 O
