[@Chrysamer77]

10:38 start of audiobook

[@kashigi3573]

We need to all work together to get the time stamps for all the chapters

[@ImaginarySusan]

Don't skip to 10:38! The preface is absolutely significant to listen to! Skipping ahead is an indication that stillness and patience are not being valued! Please start at the beginning, the words are wise and you are lulled by the calm voice... it is a good preparation for listening!

[@Nanaknickers3]

No matter what I’m going through, this audiobook calms me.

[@FloatingCastle]

[@OceanLove69]

It is not KZbin But rather individuals that seek Wealth Over prosperity

What if I told you I've eaten a whole barrel of figs? Would you believe me? Would you even care?

[@gayleblake4482]

I own many copies of this book and I'll stop and listen to it anytime I come across it.

[@samframe3779]

Why would you need more than one copy?

[@Chrysamer77]

I like playing Chinese instrumental music in the background to this book. It makes listening more dynamic

[@SusanSummer]

A nice intro soft voice exudes kindness and calm

[@godwinamaechi9771]

I can never be tired of listening to it everyday❤

[@williamjustason1374]

Thank you for the pieces of nuggets ❤️

[@randiswin]

[@opalmoxy]

Who's listening during the lunar eclipse?

[@sunrequiem]

me, how did you know 😂

[@sumethingsumething]

In a few days the eclipse

[@IIImobiusIII]

It was so lovely. I even saw a dog run towards it and stop and adopt the classic "Pointer" stance. It was completely in awe. I was like, OMG, doggo, don't look, your eyes will turn to stone!

[@trainwithty8627]

Upset about the remake? Put this at 0.9 speed and it's basically the same as the original before it was remade.

[@svsrp0712]

How to put it in 0.9? I can only choose 0.75 & 1

[@tomakissy]

Why was the previous video withdrawn from Yo tube?

[@trainwithty8627]

You gotta view it on a PC or put it in desktop mode in browser not in app. Mobile YT can't do 0.9

[@timothyhill5140]

This is what I needed to know. Something is not right with this

How come it has been remade?

[@anoncentur]

Forgiveness

[@paulpierlott8461]

Is this only available as an audio book? I so appreciate his version especially deciding to use “she.”

[@mattmcdonald8736]

No, it's available as a book too. It's the Stephen Mitchell translation!

[@Whoistheselfeyesee84]

Oh thank god this is here bless your heart and soul being of light Who is the one who narrates?

[@tomakissy]

I wonder the same!

[@taylenday]

It's Stephen Mitchell. He is the one who rewrote/interpreted the Tao Te Ching from Mandarin to English. This is his version of the book, and he is also narrating it here.

[@tomakissy]

Oh, thank you, thank you very much!!!! 🙏🏻

[@2671ajim]

Hé is also husbend of Byron Katy 😊

[@brankozeljeznjak]

thanx

[@soundtrek_]

Who is this narrated by?? I’d like to find this and download it.

[@nsmninja]

[@AshsFool]

I wish someone knew the original reader of this recording. Anyone?

[@thebritishbushman8389]

37 is the 1

[@megm.c4026]

How do you know Lao Tzu is a male? Could the author have been female? Thanks.

[@phantomblindsight907]

Tao Te Ching, must be 'how you hit'

[@operationgoddess]

Please, provide the publisher and date kf this version so I can buy it in print. Thank you.

[@LuciMourningstar]

[@traciodea]

It's Stephen Mitchell's translation.

[@BehrangAzari-gc3ct]

[@traciodea]

Stephen Mitchell. It's the best one.

[@paulpierlott8461]

Is this a book that can be ordered?

[@johnsloyan4209]

I think it is the Stephen Mitchell translation.

[@tomakissy]

Does anyone know whose translation is this? I want to translate It to spanish, but It doesn't say who the author of the interpretation of the text is 😢

[@juliogarcia9738]

Just do it

[@juliogarcia9738]

He says the name at 6:12

[@tomakissy]

Yes, but I don't want to overpass the one who narrates, and I don't know his name

[@drorbenam]

Maybe this could help.. it’s this version written docdrop.org/download_annotation_doc/-Perennial-Classics-Lao-Tzu-Stephen-Mitchell---Tao-Te-Ching_-A-New-English-Version-Harper-Perennial-Modern-Classics-2006-2-4--pDMw9.pdf

[@yoshimitsu4]

This particular version is called "A new English translation, forword and notes by Stephen Mitchell" :)

[@sheba19]

Why the revision, it was unnecessary

[@mikemittas263]

33 for me

[@TeaGardenRecs]

1:07:30 #50

[@hayleyngan8514]

Please explain in verse 46: how can there be mention of tractors, which weren't invented when this text originated?

[@user-fu4zj2rw8o]

It's probably a modern translation for a word in Chinese like a plough. Those are very old.

[@anthonywnuk-frank3754]

The book is a poetic translation in modern verbiage. It's not a direct translation. Their are other versions on KZbin like that those are good too...

[@Btonrorychannel]

I might be wrong but sounds like the person who is reading is Taiwanese.

[@CortneyHindman]

😂 that's your question about this video? Lol

[@konsumekel]

Same question here. Also 'warheads' etc. Sounds very different from other translations

[@lallenlowe]

Does anyone know the name of the narrator?

[@AnnaStoller]

Type in Google TAO te Ching audio 1989

[@MoizRafay]

I was wondering the same.

[@lallenlowe]

@@MoizRafay Anna Stoller was right

[@traciodea]

It's narrated by the translator/author, Stephen Mitchell. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3fMemyFipVgi7s

[@anoncentur]

Counter, forget diability

[@guillermoybiancadguez7057]
