Listening now! Can’t express how much your reading of the enchiridion has helped me in the last year . Thank you!
Thank you for this, your work is insightful and I enjoy these videos.
Awesome to see you posting again. Thank you!!
A true gem for seekers of knowledge and those striving for excellence
Good to see you back! Great video as always
This is amazing, thank you for these two videos!!
Glad you are back , thank you for your great work. ❤
Outstanding! You're very good at describing these great books.
Thank you so very much for the time and energy you put in to upload this material. Keep up the great work. ✍️
I appreciate you doing this; your work is thoughtful and I like the films.
I really enjoyed this. Will listen through again
SUBBED!!! Keep up the great work, this is the stuff I need right now. Bless you.
Truly appreciate your videos. Wonderful pace of narration, tone and apt analogies to present-day examples. Thank you so much for bringing us closer to these masterpieces.
Thank you so much for this. I have listened to your readings from the very beginning, and I supported you by purchasing the summary of Meditations on Audible when it was published. You are really good at what you do, because you fundamentally understand and enjoy the philosophies, which creates a passion that the listener can feel.
Thankyou for this man I always play your morning routine and I love your voice,your passion and interpretations!
This video represents an exceptionally powerful and brilliant piece of content on CZcams, which I haven't encountered in quite some time.
I was just looking for this, thanks
i listen this book in your voice. and i love it.... thank you so so so so much.
Brilliant content, brilliant voice. Thanks! 🙏🏽
My daily meditations over the past few years have been a conjunction of your works, such as Practical Stocism and your summary of The Meditations.
Your ability to reflect on another’s work, and provide a stoic grounded reflection/insight on it is so valuable.
I’m elated to have another meditation companion, I appreciate your time and effort.
Glad you're back with a quality vid .
Crazy good video, much appreciated your effort!!!
So glad to see you. I’d hoped you hadn’t left for good. I have listen to every one of your videos more than once. Your Aurelius Meditations I must have listen to 100 times. I either listen to that or your Seneca or Will Durant’s The Story of Civilisation (on Rockys channel) as my bedtime routine. Your voice is calming. You have a fantastic voice for audiobooks. I look forward to more. I am now studying Philosophy at uni and you helped me understand. Thank you.
Amazing organization & narration 💟
The knowledge is profound 😊 thank you for posting
Good to see your back. Great channel 👍🏻
I still listen to the Enchiridion read by you almost on a weekly basis (as a reminder) and your readings helped me, as I'm sure they've helped a lot of people. Thank you!
THANK YOU for this
The best musashi video. Please continue to dig into this samurais philosophy
blown away. my deepest thanks.
Great stuff, as always
Fantastic, your reading of the book is my favorite so this is a welcome addition.
Book of five rings incredible book. This is amazing, thank you for these two videos!!.
Great video thank you
Great video! ⚔️
great work!
You are a master 🙌🏽🙏🏼 Thank you 🌪🙏🏼
Thank you,Great work brother.
I found out your channel recently
Good precise video
Thanks Rob
I'm new to your channel but I've watched almost all of your videos in the past couple months. I was wondering if you'd be back, good to have you here again. Your work is superb and surely helps a lot of people as it has helped me.
I me i me ... isn't that kinda myopic?? Pffft
A book of 5 Rings is so much better than the Art of War because it looks at life from the perspective of an individual.
Yes, but I would say that the two books are too different to put them against eachother as opponents. They both have merit.
Powerful valuable knowledge to cope with Life lessons. Will be supporting the channel. Thank you
First time listening, this was brilliant, from Seneca to Limbo slice hahah, what an enjoyable way to learn and grow! Love the voice talent or if it's you, kudos! Subed and thumbs up! Now on to part 2 ❤
Beautiful story 📜👏👏👏
Thank you brother
Thanks!
Book of five rings incredible book
Hey what's up you're my favorite audio book maker. Thank you you really helped me on my early journey for stoicism
Glad to see a new upload from you, I still listen to several of your readings every week.
The legend has returned!
Welcome back !
Excellent 😊
Yaaay he’s back
I’ve been read this for years now
It’s in my. Top 10 books
Cnt wait for pt 2
Just completed and took notes of it superb work brother.I have pdf version of this book even I was reading through it I didn't got the meaning of many things that you just revealed.For god sake I found you.if not may be I would be wandering over some swordman techniques 😂 Thanks a lot🙏 Great work,I appreciate it
Ty ty ty ❤
Righteous Conan reference. Great recitation and annotations.
THE BEST
Nice Conan reference. Musashi and the Samurai trilogy started me early on the path to not be a knucklehead and help others learn to farm before they pick up their chosen "weapon".
I'm American and first read The Book Of Five Rings when I was in the early 2000s. Every word made perfect sense. I still read it to savor the energy and essence of Musashi and reflect on his principles. It is most exquisite, as is its first cousin in Bushido, the Hagakure.
A book that should be required reading for any student, ANYWHERE
The manga Vagabond by Takehiko Inoue is worth checking out, a historical fiction seinen series about the life of Miyamoto Musashi during the Warring States period for anyone interested.
Victory over myself I had this during a 5 hour 5g dose of mushrooms had what people might refer to as a bad trip. But only after did I understand that it was not necessarily bad it was just a trip. And each trip is different something I needed to learn obviously. Feeling like I was in purgetory trapped I could move but I really rather lay down and contemplate everything it's hard to put into words the feeling other than total dredd but the experience was useful learned allot about myself in the trip learned I am much stronger than I thought learned nothing lasts forever no matter how bad it might feel.

00:38 📚 Summarizing Miyamoto Musashi's "Book of Five Rings" involves interpreting its 17th-century wisdom and applying it to the modern world.
01:33 ⛰️ Musashi's book is organized into five scrolls, representing grounding, adaptability, combat, perception, and practicality.
03:32 🌊 Mastery requires continuous practice and maintaining a combat mindset in daily life.
04:59 🌊 Physical posture and mental state are interconnected; maintaining a centered, balanced mindset is crucial.

21:40 💪 Core compound lifts deliver significant results in strength training, highlighting the importance of focusing on fundamentals.
22:07 🚀 Recognize that progress requires action, not just knowledge; the challenge lies in taking initiative.

30:12 📚 The responsibility for progress lies primarily with the student, who must embody principles through practice and self-driven research.

Wow man, I’m so grateful. I’m having my tea with this
I feel ever drawn to this book even though I do not get it nor think it is true. I have been drawn to the samurai ever since I was a boy. Thank you for doing this. It's better than the actual text!
Give it a rest...I boy!!
Love Joe and live by Musashi’s philosophy “know the way broadly”
Hilarious to see him pulling up his shirt to show us a tattoo artist depicting a painters cartoonist version of a man that once lived like I did when I got my first tattoo in high school 😂😭✌️
1 from 10000
After this i recall this incident: i played basketball for fitness only a player wanted a game with me.
I won this game without skills.
"You played real pretty, I want the ball in the hole " That was my final game. Age 55 at the time.
What app do you use for the icon picture?
🎉 TY 🎉
Musashi was a scary warrior. This dude would be a monster to fight agaisnt
Oh my God, Vox. I thought you left us!!! Welcome back, my brother in reason!
Are the 5 dimensions of personality, that of which being OCEAN, underlined or remiscent of the 5 rings?
Very valuable information. Almont got into a fight while listening. Cooler heads prevailed. Drugs ruin lives.
Sweet Conan reference.
Took me a sec to get it.
I have a question, Sir
what does it really mean when Musashi said "think of the principles as emanating from your own heart"?
what does it mean practically?
I'd be grateful if the video had subtitles in Portuguese. It may seem like I'm lazy, but I've been studying English but I have a hard time keeping up with speakers. Thanks from Brazil
Hi, I don't speak Portuguese but I've translated it with GPT4 and have just added them. I'm relying on CZcams to sync the timestamps up automatically though! Not sure if it works in a second language. It will probably take 24 hours for us to find out.
@@VoxStoica thank you very much for your attention
Dude, nice fucking work
Hi Robin!
Hey Justin!
Yeah Conan the barbarian reference. Ding. Ding. Ding. Silliness aside. Great work here. Thank you so much.
I started laughing so hard when he said TPS reports. I literally just watched the movie office space the other day. Right right so can I expect that TPS report by the end of the day
You in Houston?
1000 days to forage, 10,000 days to refined 😮💨
5:00 go for walks keep back straight shoulders back head up ect
Why did you remove go right no sho from your channel?
Classic
Considering the fact that in his culture, failure to live in accord with The Way (and realizing one has failed) generally ended in suicide.
36 years old and fell off the path for years. Buried in bad habits. Errors have compounded.
….
I’ve listened to this over and over again. Excellent job. When will you make the PDF available?
Thanks, that's amazing to hear. I should have the pdf online in a couple of days. Need to adapt the video script to a book style and format it properly.
Awesome. Thanks for the work you do! I wish you more success to come. It’s well deserved.

The moral of the sum is, dont lose your self worth to destroy those who have already believe tey have destroyed you.
What is best in life!?
Samuraized
Would you ever do full audiobook of Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa? It’s only over 1500 pages, print so small you need a microscope to read and pages thinner than sliced onion.
I'm familiar with it, but as a recent release it's copyrighted. Not to mention 50+ hours long as you point out. There is a good audible version though
@@VoxStoica I think my favorite part of the book was when Musashi was about to be executed but realized he didn’t want to live like an animal but as a man. And when he also helped a village with their crops and protect it from bandits.
Great video please add your notes next time
I pressed thimbs up on one should now be 2 but stayed the same ????
