thanks for all this work, I have listend the Marcus Aurelius one like 20 times already, It's part of my every day now, thanks!

good one for me from Thailand, in Thailand we have a lot of person who does meditation both monk and normal people, they can achieved the purpose like this advice but I'm is just starting and do it everyday, all day, welcome to visit Thailand especially some temple in north of Thailand.

Thank you for the audiobook. The reading is superb. About "Meditations": It is repetitive and naïve. It has a few tidbits of wisdom here and there, but not much. The overall impression it gives is that it sounds like a juvenile self-help book. Thankfully, I heard than read it. Reading it as a written book would be an ordeal.

Thank you Thank you Thank you 🙏🏻

It's a great audio book, the voice and the translation are the best. I listened while driving or when i have insomnia it helped me to fall asleep, thanks a lot.

It’s read too fast. And I enjoyed the intro

So Glad i listened to this

Truly enjoyed this. Thank you.

wisdom comes in all kinds of time lines

This is a very high bar to live by I’m not there yet

Beautifully done with superb AI imagery, and if I only have one quibble it is the modern, dumbed down language which makes Marcus Aurelius sound like some graduate intern on NYT potificating on grave subjects using their limited and infantile vocabulary.

Thank you for creating this great work of Marcus Aurelius. Is the physical book exactly like what you read here?! Appreciate your response. 🙏

I had to slow this down; you talk too fast and without human vocalization....and Aurelius is more human than the terrible voice expressed here. What a travesty to speed it up. Blah!

Not sure how to take the line: “it’s like in movies when someone might want a simple toy”, 59:13… Now I’m not sure what Marcus Aurelius wrote, and what is a loose interpretation by the translator 😰

To be honest, he was writing this while spewing fire.

I think its ok to lean on others for support , this is the only thing I don't agree with

Is the voice AI too? Sounds too perfect.

Great stuff. Thanks 🙏🏽

"Corn" mentioned by Marcus Aurelius means "cereal", not "maize" as on the video, this wasn't known in the Old Word then.

I appreciate the modern update, but I have one major critique: Marcus Aurelius was not a New Age mystic, and the word choice made to "modernize" his writings detracts from his original message by making him sound like a douchy New Age mystic.

These are gold ? GEMS 💎 got Free ! Thank you 🙏 🫡

Today a fool I was...I had weed and time and energy but chose to waste it all... no studying no meditation nothing of great value except for exercise which can't be counted for its life in if it'self

How do you create those pictures? AI visualization?

Those visualizing pictures are very good interpretation of the text ❤👍

I love how this narrator sounds like Russell Crow haha

Thank you 🙏🏻

2:11:41 I'm pretty sure he did not mention movies in his books. Makes you wonder how much of this video is B.S.

THANK YOU.

I’m not gonna lie. Kinda just sounds like a bro hustle culture podcast.

is there something interesting in this? give timestamps... no time, I have tiktoks to watch

KZfaq should add AI translate so I could listen to this in my native language.

he would make a great tiktoker these days

I am so annoyed the KZfaq keeps recommending these long-ass videos that don't want. I know it's not your fault but I'm blaming you f*****

go

Thank you! This is a great audio version. I also have a physical copy but it's good to be able to listen to it while walking.

Do "The Nicomachean Ethics" next please. Keep up the good work!

this modern english is a plague upon humanity. and this translation is a crime. But not a serious crime, like public urination or petty theft.

Apologies if you have already answered this somewhere in the comments. What translation are using for the narration? I have the Penguin Classics and the Gregory Hayes editions. Neither are what is being narrated here-though I really like the flow of this version! Thank you for the hard work!

Great voice...powerful. Graphics really complement narration.

At age 44 and feeling my moral compass is relatively centered it was great hearing this! “Every useful thing needs change”

The simple life is the great life.

Thank you! 🙏

Repetitive.

Please make more videos!!!!

Stoic stage 1: stop writing KZfaq comments

ΜARCUS AURELIUS WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST ROMAN EMPERORS, A PHILOSOPHER, WHAT YOU DO NOT KNOW IS THAT HE WROTE ALL OF THESE MAGNIFICENT BOOKS IN HELLENIC (ANCIENT GREEK) HE, HIMSELF WAS A PROFOUD PHILEHELLEN LITERALLY DEVOURING HELLENIC PHILOSOPHERS SUCH AS EPICTITUS, HERAKLEITOS, ZENON, EPICUROS, PLUTARCHOS AND MORE, OF COURSE HE ALSO COPIED ROMAN PHILOSOPHERS LIKE SENECA AND RUFUS. THE ELITE IN ROMAN EMPIRE, SENATORS EMPERORS WEALTHY ROMANS ALL KNEW VERY WELL HELLENIC AS A TOKEN OF THEIR ADVANCED SPIRITUAL LEVEL AND MENTALITY
