I'm so glad this channel is still in operation. Thank you so much Carl

[@bobbybee2975]

Glad you got back to putting stuff up on this channel, always nice to hear old wisdom.

[@shoa4566]

This is a absolutely wonderful gift, thank you.

[@violenceislife1987]

Shadilay 🐸 Sargon has gotten so good at this, and it's awesome that he has kept this channel going. Thanks Carl!

[@notchbeard9007]

A wild Ancient Recitations appears! Thats a rare Pokemon that is!

[@chachieb]

Nothing ruins this like commercials coming out of nowhere

[@yorozuya2898]

this channel getting an update is a miracle. glad don carlos is at it again.

[@Raigan_Avalon]

This is a spectacular text and a good choice for a recitation. A text everyone should read/listen to at least one, if only to think about it.

[@calumhenderson9404]

Glad to see a new upload.

[@bashkillszombies]

Do The Turner Diaries next.

[@ShortbusMooner]

[@INRamos13]

[@JG-vh6oy]

We’re so back

[@evolassunglasses4673]

More great books please!

[@reedenrite7950]

Woooo

[@reedenrite7950]

Way

[@JTPQuinn]

I would be that one guy to say "its pronounced 'dao',"but really, if they wanted it pronounced a certain way, they should have spelt it that way.

[@AEsir_Goji]

Ah, yet another I've read before. Yes!

[@peppolobuondelmonte]

Bravi tutti 🤙

[@GrimrDirge]

What translation is this? It's very understandable, which usually comes at the cost of fidelity.

[@violenceislife1987]

It seems to have tried to maintain the poetry

[@MatthewShute]

Nice! The Fragments of Heraclitus would make for a good recitation, if you take suggestions. There are some similarities (and of course some marked differences) with his thought and that of Lao Tzu. It's a relatively short read packed with some absolute gems.

[@violenceislife1987]

Many thanks fren

[@fedyno4reviews]

Carl these video mean so much to me, thank you. I'm going to upgrade to gold on lotus eaters.

[@annyonny1224]

Virtue? Virtue where are you? Has anybody seen all of my virtue lately?

[@marvbordello6047]

Which translation is this?

[@checkmarkdatter1785]

[@Tex_Killer]

[@pipedreamteam4184]

Sargon reading taoist philosophy? What's next, Moses reading the koran?

[@The_Babe]

If only you had always done this instead of getting involved in politics and online discourse 😞

[@rotisseriepossum]

what?

[@The_Babe]

@rotisseriepossum I'm saying that I like when he reads history rather than tries to make it as Sargon of Akkad

[@Dave-ks9fi]

Lotus eaters is doing well though.

[@Liodegrance]

Who's text are you using there? It's excruciating. Not only for the cringeworthy rhyming, but also the interpolation.

[@MrAlexanderLang]

Wait a minute is this Sargon?

[@dire-decadence]

No

[@koanbonwa]

Is dis dee way?
