I'm a chinese myself, been living in china for 27 years, and never set a foot on another foreign county. and i never found that our philosophy can be so interesting and intriguing like this. thanks to stephen, your briliant interpretation is guiding me to a wonderful philosophic world.

Thanks for keeping active by uploading these videos. You are a friend, and a scholar.

We wouldn't need to be governed if we acted in accordance with the dao.

I feel offended and fluttered at the same time with the hippie analogy.

When Yang becomes extreme it turns to Yin. When Yin becomes extreme it turns to Yang.

I really like Daoism. It's all about now.

Stephen Mitchell did not translate the Dào Dé Jīng.

[@DianaStevens42]

I got into Taoism after listening to Beyoncé’s album Cowboy Carter.

I used to listen to your show every single day during highschool, and ngl, it’s the best education I’ve ever gotten lol

Fantastic podcast! So glad to hear Stephen is based in my home town Seattle! However, I lived in China for over half of my life. Even with my deep love for philosophy and a degree in intellectual history, I still find "Philosophize It" an indispensable gem. It's a foundation of self enlightenment.

god, the more i try to understand what makes a good life and a good person, i get more questions than answers.

[@awanqutabshah7559]

Thank you Stephen. I love your work. This is a wonderful source of knowledge.

[@TheKalazar]

Thanks so much for uploading these older ones, i started watching on roughly ep 90 and i love being able to listen to these older ones!

I found the Dao de Jing... confusing. It feels a bit like a rorschach test. Depending on when I read it, it's hippie mysticism, libertarianism without capitalism, the world's first self-help book, ruminations on epistomology and qualia ... or an intution of Gödel's incompleteness.

[@josephalmazan4805]

Jesus Christ your really banging these out I'm still on prehistoric philosophy episode 1 but I'm not complaining honestly

[@gabrielofficial7859]

Thank u for this!

[@ervingbujanda9217]

I loved the metal music transitions and wish you kept it

[@scrambles6669]

"Before the heaven and earth existed..." That portion, to me, sounds like the singularity at the "beginning" of the universe.

[@johnnyrockdog]

I remember the first time I heard this episode ! Lazy hippy, indeed!😂
