NO ads please who cares about the screen or the music when there’s ads every few mins! ONE MINUTE INAMD ALREADY AN AD..I’m out.

Modern library edition of the wisdom of Lao Tzu translated by lin yu tang

I came to think about a different take on Wu Wei than Alan Watts. Instead of our choices being like a flipping of a coin, that God doesn't play dice, and that God (or the Tao) is the only power in the universe! Wu Wei is then the realization that we are already doing nothing. God is doing everything. "The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord." - Proverbs 16:33

I’m sure this never used to have adverts

Too many ads destroying beauty

Ads. So obnoxious.

Mr Watts gave no indication in talks or behavior that he was awakened or enlightened. But, that doesn’t mean he didn’t have something valuable to share. His talks on Buddhism are way off base but he also admitted he tried Zen for a week and left it alone because he found it “incomprehensible” or something to that effect. As I have experienced Watts, his most profound effect is that which results in you striving forward, deeper into the subjects of the contemplatives. And for that we can be grateful.

Alan Watts cures my anxiety and calms my mind.

😊

thank you for uploading these, i love that they have no music

Black screen ok but we can’t see what he’s writing. I wish we had the words with the writing on the screen. Thank you I enjoyed it

And all is well with the world!

Coin is just 2 sided but you can use dice or seberal dices

Excellent discussion of the tao...

Let there be light and let the light be divided by night, was not referring to rotation of planets.

omg, finally a one without that tedious overplayed "emotional" music! LOVE!

@43:35 not a wise idea to turn off the engines in a typhoon - a ship needs steerage in a storm in order to avoid broaching...& thus turning turtle (upside down)...philosophers probably don't make good sailors!!

I so very much love this awesome spirit. A while ago someone called him a hypocrite at an afterparty of a friend of mine....because of his struggles with alcohol. I believe that he saw how our planet could be and how it is...and had great difficulty with this. Everything comes from nothingness, in art/music we start with nothing and carve out "somethingness" out of this...this is art./musc....love/beauty .....I believe Alan does this with words. His amazing words are at the "border" of thinking and feeling...a "place" where the real magic happens (jmho). I wish everybody a happy, loving, and magical life 🙏 🍄

Love Terrence.

Thank you for sharing the wisdom of Alan Watts.

Has there been a better speaker?

mama mama

Listening to Alan Watts has become an obsession. I'm ready to learn now... 🙏

The more I listen to Alan Watts the more I'm inspired by him

Bu xiang qing?

lovely seminar, thank you for sharing. funny how videos of his lectures tend to attract such ,uh, odd comments, hopefully thinking too much about these topics won't make me go crazy :-P

Probably my favourite talk of his so far

Spleep

I do prefer the black screen no unnecessary things noises music and such, I also think that Mr Watts wise man but right at the around 6 min mark he already changed some maybe all of the ways of menaing int the Tao Te Ching because he prefers to not take the meaning Tao as the way but tao as the course which is much different to me and changes most meanings i nthe Tao Te Ching again I personally think that Mr Watts was a very wise man but there are many thigns I never agreed with in his interpretations of things

Alan Watts? More like Gavin Butts

The best ❤

The great Alan Watts.

Wu wei should be studied away from alan watts because new translations have become a better guide that werent available.

🙏

Alan watt's a true master
