Some Quotes I liked:
Chapter III: Thought
35 It is good to tame the mind, which is difficult to hold in and flighty, rushing wherever it listeth; a tamed mind brings happiness.
36 Let the wise man guard his thoughts, for they are difficult to perceive, very artful, and they rush wherever they list: thoughts well guarded bring happiness.
Chapter IV: Flowers
50 Not the perversities of others, not their sins of commission or omission, but his own misdeeds and negligences should a sage take notice of.
Chapter V: The Fool
69 As long as the evil deed done does not bear fruit, the fool thinks it is like honey; but when it ripens, then the fool suffers grief.
Chapter VI: The Wise Man (Pandita)edit
80 Well-makers lead the water (wherever they like); fletchers bend the arrow; carpenters bend a log of wood; wise people fashion themselves.
81 As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, wise people falter not amidst blame and praise.
Chapter IX: Eviledit
122 Let no man think lightly of good, saying in his heart, It will not come nigh unto me. Even by the falling of water-drops a water-pot is filled; the wise man becomes full of good, even if he gather it little by little.
Chapter XI: Old Ageedit
156 Men who have not observed proper discipline, and have not gained treasure in their youth, lie, like broken bows, sighing after the past.
Chapter XII: Selfedit
158 Let each man direct himself first to what is proper, then let him teach others; thus a wise man will not suffer.
163 Bad deeds, and deeds hurtful to ourselves, are easy to do; what is beneficial and good, that is very difficult to do.
165 By oneself the evil is done, by oneself one suffers; by oneself evil is left undone, by oneself one is purified. Purity and impurity belong to oneself, no one can purify another.
Chapter XV: Happinessedit
197 Let us live happily then, not hating those who hate us! among men who hate us let us dwell free from hatred!
Chapter XVI: Pleasureedit
209 He who gives himself to vanity, and does not give himself to meditation, forgetting the real aim (of life) and grasping at pleasure, will in time envy him who has exerted himself in meditation.
Chapter XVIII: Impurityedit
252 The fault of others is easily perceived, but that of oneself is difficult to perceive; a man winnows his neighbour's faults like chaff, but his own fault he hides, as a cheat hides the bad die from the gambler.
253 If a man looks after the faults of others, and is always inclined to be offended, his own passions will grow, and he is far from the destruction of passions.
Chapter XX: The Wayedit
280 He who does not rouse himself when it is time to rise, who, though young and strong, is full of sloth, whose will and thought are weak, that lazy and idle man will never find the way to knowledge.

As a student, I lack the money to buy audio books and the time to read. I listen to your audiobooks while at the gym to expand my horizons. Without your videos I would never have read Socratesā€™ apology or Meditations. Thank you for your hard work. Iā€™ll make sure to like and comment in the future so you can keep making these videos.

Robin, thank you so much for doing this. Doing an audiobook is a huge task, and I don't think many people understand how long it takes to research, write, perform and edit videos like this. I am just beginning my journey into Buddhism and I appreciate the fact that people like you care enough about the philosophy to spend countless hours doing these kinds of projects. Again, thank you very much for doing this. I can tell you with 100% assuredness that you have helped at least one individual along the path.

Nice!!! As layman buddhist, I have read countless versions of the Dhammapada in 3 different languages throughout my life. I always enjoy reading different versions by different translators because they all have a different "flavor " to them even though it is the same teachings from 2,500 years ago. You did a terrific job with Go Rin No Sho, Tao Te Ching and The Art of War, so this is a real treat to me. Thank you!!!

Thank you friend, Getting me my own Dhammapada and apply the suttas of Gautama. Tried stoics but man that can lead you to stagnation, a tedious process and very detrimental in many ways. No fundamentals on money and time management, no counsel and a battle between solitude and isolation, stoicism doesnā€™t work for me. The Bibleā€™s teachings are leaps beyond the stoics, a rythem, modem and with many fruits of counsel, principles and fundamentals that work like gears, once they get running smoothly there is much to let it flow, Buddhism from what ive read so far really flows well with the Dharmachakra, 4 noble truths and 8 fold path is much more beneficial, with fundamentals of their is learning in teaching and vice versa, stick to going to mysticism to practical. Stoics and epicureans from practical to pragmatic. Buddhism from mysticism to practical. Biblical and Quranic from Practical to mystical. Hindu Mysticism to more mysticism. All good in their own ways, but for me, Iā€™ll stick with Bible and Buddhism. Good pairing and very compatible.

To be honest I didn't take too much from this one, not enough to be able to summarise it concisely. So I've left the parts I liked most as quotes in the description. I intend to start the Discourses soon, but I need a clear period to do so start to finish. Chapter I: The Twin-Verses - 0:13 Chapter II: On Earnestness - 4:15 Chapter III: Thought - 6:45 Chapter IV: Flowers - 8:51 Chapter V: The Fool - 11:53 Chapter VI: The Wise Man (Pandita) - 15:05 Chapter VII: The Venerable (Arhat) - 17:53 Chapter VIII: The Thousands - 19:57 Chapter IX: Evil - 23:02 Chapter X: Punishment - 25:43 Chapter XI: Old Age - 28:51 Chapter XII: Self - 30:48 Chapter XIII: The World - 32:51 Chapter XIV: The Buddha (The Awakened) - 34:57 Chapter XV: Happiness - 38:20 Chapter XVI: Pleasure - 40:39 Chapter XVII: Anger - 42:46 Chapter XVIII: Impurity - 45:19 Chapter XIX: The Just - 49:14 Chapter XX: The Way - 52:16 Chapter XXI: Miscellaneous - 56:28 Chapter XXII: The Downward Course - 59:24 Chapter XXIII: The Elephant - 1:02:14 Chapter XXIV: Thirst - 1:05:06 Chapter XXV: The Bhikshu (Mendicant) - 1:10:59 Chapter XXVI - The Brahmana (Arhat) - 1:15:28

Thank you for sharing this Masterpiece!! Our world is entering a new phase, and we are all about to witness Karma play out like never before - The Dhammapada is a wonderful guide to all of us who are complex, confused, searching, wanting, needing or simply altering and changing with the times. To those who care more about good intentions and less about good impressions - Welcome to wisdom - Ushta-te!!
