You don't need to know everything. Everything you need to know will come to you when you need to know it. If you fail or make a mistake then you needed to know that. Alan watts is awesome
yes but you obviously have to worry because if you don't worry who will? its life c'mon guys.. thats why there is anxiety and depression hitting people right in the face for no reason they did nothing wrong. God is testing us and if we are at a state right now that is really difficult, god gave that to test us because god knows that we will get passed the situation we are going through. god wouldn't give us these hard situations if he didn't know that we couldn't succeed.
Alan Watts has this strange way of making me feel horribly lost in the universe and at the very same time found, like he has the meaning of life completely determined.
Every single time i come back to this, my body and mind always tingles when he says “you are like cloud and water” it momentarily releases me from everything
Alan Watts has expanded my mind so much and has opened a whole new paradigm of thoughts and a way of being one with life. Thank you so much to everyone for posting his speeches and letting me and everybody listen to them!
Paradigms are illusions. He did not show you a new paradigm, but showed the futility of thinking of concepts as real objects, so you can experience life, without wobbling, as it is.
Firstly. I love Alan Watts, when I'm on the mood I listen to it and lay on my bed on some sort of a "trip". Sometimes I even put it on a kind of ambiental sound. His speeches and quotes definitely changed my life. Here's why: So, I'm 17 and I have a way of thinking very similiar to what Alan Watts says on his speeches, that are present on TH-cam. Sometimes he helps me find myself too, because even though I kind of acquired my way of thinking by myself, being surrounded by the system and people that aren't like me could probably influentiate me to be just another one. Please, don't get me wrong, I don't want to offend anyone, I respect everyone and their opinion, but fuck, I would find or think that I was alone if there was no Alan Watts. My native language isn't English, but even in my native language there are somethings that I can't describe. Alan watts sometimes transforms my thoughts into words. I find myself fascinated by the fact that people spend so much time watching bs on television, seeing celebrities lives, following them then again on smartphones, just why? I can't idolize the supposed "celebrities", I honestly couldn't care less about what the fuck they are doing, much less run like a bitch or pay for an autograph or something like that. I mean, I think that everyone should see some Alan Watts's videos, and not the everyday shit that steals their time. Afterlife? I have no idea. I believe, yes. But while I'm here... I'm going to enjoy this trip, and not waste it, come on people wake up. Like, why stare at a screen 24 a day? People and especially my generation are completely blinded and this shit scares me. Just some digress, Peace :)
VeniVidi Vici you're not alone buddy. I'm here too. 22 years and shit scared of the ignorance of my generation, but hey there is you and there is me, so that's two who see through it already. keep your head up and enjoy the ride! :)
+MrSupernova111 One thing I have about the internet is that almost no one does anything but insult. I admire the great voice of Mr. Watts. I also appreciate the great message. You assume too much. Plain Sad.
Your voice vibrates through your skill as well as your mouth causing a different pitch compared to what others hear. That's why almost everybody says they hate their own voice, the same as how you see yourself compared to how others see you. Self perception. Maybe you have an awesome voice and maybe not.
Mr. Nobody was such a good movie. I just watched the extended edition yesterday and it felt as if someone had made a movie specifically for me, addressing my own worries and fears. Just for me. My late 20s are turning into a philosophical awakening for me personally. I'm about to turn 30 this year and the last 2-3 years have been full of discovering Alan Watts, free-will, and similar concepts. I'm so glad I learned it, as it has definitely impacted me and the way I look back at my life in my early 20s and teenage years.
SillyBehavior Yes ... there is is only now and it keeps moving to now and now and now. Being human and living on a planet and having to function thereon ... we have constructed time ... past and future. Remembering things that were now NOW and calling that the past. Planning things now for a later NOW is called the future. When one works and has to show up at 9am, then we function in time and space as need be. You are so right though ... NOW is where life is always.
How can that be seen as profound? Why does he never mention Jesus? Surely our only right path is the one that God seeks us to take. All new age philosophy “Everything is fine just shut up, quiet and accept it.”
@@timwhitmore7 The path you're taking is the one God/Universe (whatever you want to call your higher power) wants you to take. No matter which path you choose, that's the one God wants for you. You can make no bad choices. There are no errors... no mistakes. It's ALL (you, me, and everything) in perfect harmony whether or not we believe that as individuals. The higher power has a master plan and we are simply a part of it. but that's just my honest opinion... we're all entitled to our own. Religious freedom.. Gotta LOVE it!
Listening to alan is like a journey to the lonely world to me. I just listening and going and both are like an endless path. His words are flow like a fountain on my head. Iam so wet and drenched by his words. During this flow oftenly i smile and feel so relaxed. Great man.
Whoever is reading this now, remember: You are the light! You are unique and worth it! You are blessed to be in your body and experience all that is! Feel your endless power within your heart! Blessings to all beings! Love and Light!
More than 5 years have passed now since you left. And I moved on. Found myself again, took a leap of faith and grew further into being myself. I'm happy and grateful. Lost something, won something else. Yet still there are those nights when I just miss you. And probanly not even the person you've evolved into, but that one that you were for me. And then I'm asking myself what you're thinking of all of this now and how you'd see me now. But it's for the better, right? It is. I guess a certain part of my heart will always be yours. Zyanya. Always. We just couldn't bury all of it when we buried our little fox. Zyanya. A to S
Alan Watts, you were (and through you're recorded work, still are) a gleaming and stellar example of the embodiment of something so sacred, so rare, and so absolutely fundamental to every facet of life, especially the human race. The depth and vastness of your wisdom, and especially the ease at with which you communicate it serves as irrefutable evidence to me that we indeed do have a creator and this entire reality operates by a level of intelligent design that to me is inconceivable. You never fail to help guide me to whatever answer I currently seek and you manage to leave me in awe every single time! The chances of possessing such an extraordinary gift that fundamentally applies to every single person who exists, has ever existed, and will ever exist, transcends not only the odds of probability but also the physical world itself. Therefore, it must be from another place, which would have to be the non physical realm. I can't help but feel like all the truly important ingredients of life that represent things like inclusion and timelessness and compassion do as well (i.e. Love, Truth, and Joy). Thank you so much for existing and sticking with what came natural to you, and thank you to the divine intelligence that graced us with your presence. I can't fathom a better example of unconditional love from what assuredly must be an unconditionally loving creator. ❤️
@Present Moment Consciousness : Now you Sir tell me something about this present moment :______ When you start doin so, you'll find out that all you do is talking about the past. Using memory only... By that : *THERE IS NO PRESENT MOMENT* .•°
One of my absolute favorite Alan Watts lectures (part of a lecture)! The music paring is prefecto! Every time I listen to this, it not only lifts my perspective, but it makes my soul tingle. Alan Watts, a man no longer of this world, has expanded my mind, philosophy and helped me to recognize "the self". Cheers
I listen to this every morning. And, everyday I try to be the cloud. I crash and burn each time of course, and I'm sure I'll run out of time before I'd even come close, but, what a beautiful thing to aspire to. I'm grateful for you posting this....
This is so true! Make important decisions from your heart and your soul. Don’t use your brain too much. You can “over-think” things. Trust the universe and you don’t have to make any decisions with your brain at all. I am living according to these principles and I’m happy about it. 😊
the very end... where alan is towards the end of his life...struggling to talk...up until his last breath he didn't stop trying to make the world a better place. today, more than ever, his words ring true and we need to pay attention! love each other! were all equal members of this #OneHumanFamily
I heard it as: Each of these lives is the right one Every path is the right path Everything could have been anything else And it would have just as much impact (But I’m not sure about the last word, was hoping someone here might have transcribed it!)
I dig this belief system. There are no wrong decisions because in the end, here we are and we're ok. I'm also on board with the concept of anxiety. Thinking comes before feeling - feeling comes before behaviors. Good, good stuff.
I can't believe that all my conscious life is with this kind of a thinking - like everything he says in every lecture says what I've ever been thinking for myself point... I'm so amazed of not knowing but knowing everything .. even I cannot explain it.
Arrin Mixon you do its yourself love yourself trust yourself I hope you have an amazing journey thru life I hope we meet again brother spread love and positivity 👌🔥💯
this is one of the most beautiful and inspiration things ive ever seen in my life...... thank you so so so much for making this, you have no idea to the degree that this has just saved me.
today im making a big desicion about my life and i dont know what to do im lost. then i remembered this so i listened to it for 5 hours straight. somehow it helped.. thank you for making this
What is the name of mr. Nobody's third wife? He fucked her up didn't he. Kinda ruined her life: trapped her in a shitty relationship whit his auto-pilot, leave her pregnant twice, barely speaking to her. Ha, bad example of "no bad choices". Did he love her?
I love this video, Finally something that puts our actions into perspective beyond our immediate time frame. I.e. what will happen now if I do this today. Long term every path is correct except for those that harm others.
If every human would listen to Alan Watts and take his message to heart, that would be the right choice! But, of course there are many who disagree with that, which just confirms his message!!!
I hope I will remember to read this in two years from now, because I always go back to this video. I hope then I'll be already a little more happier and figured out an escape from the darkness I am currently living in
I'm at a crossroad in life. I don't know where to go, what to do? There are but only so few options, but so many outcomes. I don't know if I'm right, but im walking down the road that I think is best, but its scary. Not knowing is scary. When I listen to this, to Alan Watts, the fear subsides, and I feel I can keep walking. All choices are scary, but it's okay, there isn't a right one, just those I didn't pick. This video is amazing.
Every path is the right path. Something to really think about and made me realize the mistakes, the bad experiences of the past are part of my right path.
Wish this Channel still made videos. The first time I saw this video many years ago 5 years plus it changed my life. I've studied eastern philosophy, carl jung, nietzsche, ect. stemming partially from here. Whoever you are thank you for this beautiful crafted mix of philosophy, exceptional music pairing, and proper emotional visual representation.
“People have a lot of anxiety about making decisions. When you think it through you find you never could have enough data to take into consideration.” Reminds me of the 90% rule.
My courage to start and stick with my company started with this video... to lean into something because there isn’t any mistakes when doing business just how you look at it. We try everyday to be better then we were yesterday. Allan Watts has some truth to his videos.
Even now, as we sit and watch the wisdom of those who came before to better orient our own search for truth, we are an integral part of all around us. What the trees breath out we breath in what insights we manifest out of the collective maelstrom we feed back So that another might fish them out. Unity solves most problems. Iv always liked the ‘Morality of the hand’ conceptualization: “Look at your hand, did anyone ever tell you not to hate, harm or discriminate against your little finger simply because it is the least among them? Does morality work like this? Or did you need no tutelage, no rules, no moral principles to avoid cutting it off? Because anything you feel is a part of you transcends these concepts.”
+Eve Lister Why do you think that? A mistake can be quantifiably defined, as an action which was inteded to fulfill its purpose, yet it didn't. Of course, you might say that in the larger picture, this mistake is to lead you somewhere else, where you could learn more and experience what was meant to be achieved. The truth is always subjected to the point of view, don't you think? : )
+Maytane Winner but at times, mistakes can turn out to be one importance to obtaining one's own happiness. In which, the consequences turns out to be a positive thing to the future
mlongpre100 Hitler is my dude. He makes people became aware that in order to make peace and to never experience let the tragedy that they've experience happen again. They've created the united nation and other peace laws where ones were to go against. Will have to face the world's military. Which avoid a nation to nation conflicts today. atm
Jeremy Francis internally? lmao. How many years has it been since man kind was born? millions. And how many in accordance to years and time period has any of the civilization create a peace law between each other? 2 to 8 different country between 1000- 1900 century. Then eventually, World war happens, and bam, killing, greed, treating world conflicts as a war, game and opportunity to be placed in their history as being the best land conqueror of the century. Check it out man, during WW1 they had a sport competition in the olympics against other competing nations, where war was ceased. While at the same time, christmas was the only time where war was also ceased to celebrate holidays. *It's not possible to stay, or let alone doing nothing and wishing for a miracle or a coincidence to occurs through non human's action* Humans are responsible for themselves, war has lead us humans to the society of globalization that we all have today. And that's thanks to Hitler. While North korea, China, Iraq, Syria, Cuba and some others that are still against the idea of world peace and globalization.
Applied Alan Watts since I was 20. I am 35 years old and I can definitely say that this does not work. The music is beautiful but what is being said here isn't the truth. Our choices, our decisions and our actions always come with consequences. Its an unavoidable truth of life like 1+1=2. The evil you do is really easy but the problem is, it comes back to you, your loved ones and future generations one way or the other. The good that you do is hard but the consolation is, it comes back to you, your loved one's and future generations one way or the other. This is why your choices and decisions constantly matter. You decide the direction which you will take by your choices. Hating and avoiding one thing (preferably evil) and loving and going for the other (preferably good). My aunt gave me some great advice. It was practical. It didn't have any fancy music connected to it -- Happiness is a direct result of making good decisions and choices. Be careful people. There is a lot of lies on the internet.
To truly understand ourselves we need to transcend the most basic ways we think about reality. We need to see reality as it IS and not how we think about it, BUT that is only a paradoxical loop because our experience of reality IS determined by how we think about it and likewise, what we experience, the ONE experience is fundamental to create our thoughts. they are the same thing yet we split them up, jumble the experience into judgements, numbers and measurements through thinking and get a false created view of reality, that one beam of light then gets fragmented by the prism of the mind.
The more you think about it though is the less time you have to fix it. So you need to teach your self a lesson to figure things out faster and faster and always make the right choice.
This video editing is close to perfection. The way the people's faces and emotions are intercut adds to the depth. Allan Watts masterfully narratives our lives as clouds. Thank you a million times for sharing this with me.
I come back to this video once a year ..
You don't need to know everything. Everything you need to know will come to you when you need to know it.
If you fail or make a mistake then you needed to know that.
Alan watts is awesome

hannah hussain i really wanna point out what's wrong with what you just said but i don't even know where to start.
"Did you ever see a cloud that was mishapen" ...Superb quote by the great Alan Watts.
Alan Watts has this strange way of making me feel horribly lost in the universe and at the very same time found, like he has the meaning of life completely determined.
His whole point on the meaning of life is that there isn't one. And that is delightfully wonderful.
He makes me feel at home.
Same here! Makes all the problems seem insignificant in the grand scheme of things ❤
It's the sad music they always play with the video.
Careful☯️
I needed to hear Alan say this right now
SAME!!!!
Hope you feeling better, little cloud
Me to man
Every single time i come back to this, my body and mind always tingles when he says “you are like cloud and water” it momentarily releases me from everything
same!! and you describe it perfectly - i come here every few months and 'weighed-down' and it releases me

this is one of the most beautiful and inspiration things ive ever seen in my life...... thank you so so so much for making this, you have no idea to the degree that this has just saved me.
Holy schnitzel this editing is amazing. Who ever did it, take a bow. Very impressive
today im making a big desicion about my life and i dont know what to do im lost. then i remembered this so i listened to it for 5 hours straight. somehow it helped.. thank you for making this
Im from 4 years in the future, how did it go?
just found this guy , he has a soothing voice I can listen to 💞 blessing to all hear.
Mr Nobody, what a brilliant film, fits this video perfectly!
The voice of this legend!
goes in your nervous system!
Brain and drive back to your heart and stay there with the sound of his lovely laugh!
" Choice is a act of hesitation before decision "
And there goes my mind 💣💥
@Redresseny Mine too and I only learned of him three months ago.
I read this as soon as he said it😂
only just stumbled across alan watts. his talks are so spot on
Using Mr. Nobody in this video was an amazingly well done choice. c:
+Pewpewsaur What's Mr. Nobody?
+Jacques Fournier The end quote from the gargling old man
Exactly what I thought, as soon as I saw jared Leto I knew it was Mr nobody and realized how it all goes together.
That was a great movie an very fitting combination for this video
What is the name of mr. Nobody's third wife? He fucked her up didn't he. Kinda ruined her life: trapped her in a shitty relationship whit his auto-pilot, leave her pregnant twice, barely speaking to her. Ha, bad example of "no bad choices".
Did he love her?
So many people miss out on how amazing Alan is. This man is litterally my god.
my god, too! so, so calming
I want to learn how to live in Alan's philosophy and thrive in this fast paced world. 🙏🙏
Watts always brings confidence - many provoking thoughts on such as life
Mr. Nobody (movie) is the essence of this video or vice versa. Watch it on Netflix, I highly recommend it.
+Tyler Iccarys that movie was so confusing
not on netflix
Wish I could like Alan Watt's videos more than once... wish I could like them a million times....
I don't think you could have chosen a better track to go with this video. So perfect
Thank you to the creator of this video. You have made something amazing and helpful to so many. Very talented.
if had the one free wish i wouldnt take wealth or eternal life.
all i want is to say to alan watts 'thank you for changing my life'
Why?
@@michaelcondrey3510 : "Why?" wrong question is.
*HOW?* lol .•°
i think, even Alan Watts, would slap you for that _choice_
You have both
There's something about his voice, it's so easy to listen too, there's so much wisdom.
I love this video, Finally something that puts our actions into perspective beyond our immediate time frame. I.e. what will happen now if I do this today. Long term every path is correct except for those that harm others.
This fragment has always been there for me to bring calmness. Thank you very much!
Alan watts and Mr nobody, what a combination!!
We need more men like this.... 40 years after his death and Alan Watts still inspires
"It’ll all come out in the wash" It’ll all be washed away with thoughts taking over, which is really bliss.
Chante’ Renee’ well said :-)
Yessss
If every human would listen to Alan Watts and take his message to heart, that would be the right choice! But, of course there are many who disagree with that, which just confirms his message!!!
Mr.nobody is such an awesome movie, love
I hope I will remember to read this in two years from now, because I always go back to this video. I hope then I'll be already a little more happier and figured out an escape from the darkness I am currently living in
clouds never make mistakes; waves always do "the right thing"
mlongpre100 ?
mlongpre100 ok
mlongpre100 stay on your meds, stay in school. living with an autism spectrum disorder is difficult, but you can make it work. good luck.
Love it.
What did he say the comments are deleted?
I'm at a crossroad in life. I don't know where to go, what to do? There are but only so few options, but so many outcomes. I don't know if I'm right, but im walking down the road that I think is best, but its scary. Not knowing is scary.
When I listen to this, to Alan Watts, the fear subsides, and I feel I can keep walking. All choices are scary, but it's okay, there isn't a right one, just those I didn't pick.
This video is amazing.
"Through confidence you will be able to trust your intuition"
I will listen to this until my dying days. I always come back to it.
These are the most optimistic/positive youtube comments I think i've ever seen.
How have I never heard this man speak before??!!! Powerful!!!
i'm a big Alan Watts fan...and I would like to say well done on the editing, it goes nicely with the talk.
Every path is the right path.
Something to really think about and made me realize the mistakes, the bad experiences of the past are part of my right path.
@Life Eternal MOVIE LIST, PLEASE!!
Wish this Channel still made videos. The first time I saw this video many years ago 5 years plus it changed my life. I've studied eastern philosophy, carl jung, nietzsche, ect. stemming partially from here. Whoever you are thank you for this beautiful crafted mix of philosophy, exceptional music pairing, and proper emotional visual representation.
Your videos are incredible, revolutionary really, inviting us to question the meaning of life using movies as the modern-day parables. Thanks so much!
Yea, that Alan Watts is hard core when it comes to far out reality
“People have a lot of anxiety about making decisions. When you think it through you find you never could have enough data to take into consideration.” Reminds me of the 90% rule.
My courage to start and stick with my company started with this video... to lean into something because there isn’t any mistakes when doing business just how you look at it. We try everyday to be better then we were yesterday. Allan Watts has some truth to his videos.
Love the message!! Alan Watts .... the video is perfect for it. Amazing job!!
I love his wisdom. Thanks for sharing Horty. Thinking about maybe using it in a post.
Go ahead ... it's an awesome video. I already used it this morning! Hugs ....
Even now, as we sit and watch the wisdom of those who came before to better orient our own search for truth, we are an integral part of all around us. What the trees breath out we breath in what insights we manifest out of the collective maelstrom we feed back So that another might fish them out. Unity solves most problems.
Iv always liked the ‘Morality of the hand’ conceptualization: “Look at your hand, did anyone ever tell you not to hate, harm or discriminate against your little finger simply because it is the least among them? Does morality work like this? Or did you need no tutelage, no rules, no moral principles to avoid cutting it off? Because anything you feel is a part of you transcends these concepts.”
You can't make a mistake, no matter what you do.
+Eve Lister Why do you think that? A mistake can be quantifiably defined, as an action which was inteded to fulfill its purpose, yet it didn't. Of course, you might say that in the larger picture, this mistake is to lead you somewhere else, where you could learn more and experience what was meant to be achieved.
The truth is always subjected to the point of view, don't you think? : )
Maytane Winner Exactly. Mistakes can have consequences far greater than their initial intention or relevance. :)
+Maytane Winner but at times, mistakes can turn out to be one importance to obtaining one's own happiness. In which, the consequences turns out to be a positive thing to the future
mlongpre100 Hitler is my dude. He makes people became aware that in order to make peace and to never experience let the tragedy that they've experience happen again. They've created the united nation and other peace laws where ones were to go against. Will have to face the world's military. Which avoid a nation to nation conflicts today. atm
Jeremy Francis internally? lmao. How many years has it been since man kind was born? millions. And how many in accordance to years and time period has any of the civilization create a peace law between each other? 2 to 8 different country between 1000- 1900 century. Then eventually, World war happens, and bam, killing, greed, treating world conflicts as a war, game and opportunity to be placed in their history as being the best land conqueror of the century. Check it out man, during WW1 they had a sport competition in the olympics against other competing nations, where war was ceased. While at the same time, christmas was the only time where war was also ceased to celebrate holidays. *It's not possible to stay, or let alone doing nothing and wishing for a miracle or a coincidence to occurs through non human's action* Humans are responsible for themselves, war has lead us humans to the society of globalization that we all have today. And that's thanks to Hitler. While North korea, China, Iraq, Syria, Cuba and some others that are still against the idea of world peace and globalization.
True...Thank you for sharing the views of challenging life situations with confidence..
This was wonderfully made, and I highly appreciate it because I know how time consuming this would have been. amazing work, and wonderful message.
Applied Alan Watts since I was 20. I am 35 years old and I can definitely say that this does not work.
The music is beautiful but what is being said here isn't the truth. Our choices, our decisions and our actions always come with consequences. Its an unavoidable truth of life like 1+1=2.
The evil you do is really easy but the problem is, it comes back to you, your loved ones and future generations one way or the other. The good that you do is hard but the consolation is, it comes back to you, your loved one's and future generations one way or the other.
This is why your choices and decisions constantly matter. You decide the direction which you will take by your choices. Hating and avoiding one thing (preferably evil) and loving and going for the other (preferably good).
My aunt gave me some great advice. It was practical. It didn't have any fancy music connected to it --
Happiness is a direct result of making good decisions and choices.
Be careful people. There is a lot of lies on the internet.
To truly understand ourselves we need to transcend the most basic ways we think about reality. We need to see reality as it IS and not how we think about it, BUT that is only a paradoxical loop because our experience of reality IS determined by how we think about it and likewise, what we experience, the ONE experience is fundamental to create our thoughts.
they are the same thing yet we split them up, jumble the experience into judgements, numbers and measurements through thinking and get a false created view of reality, that one beam of light then gets fragmented by the prism of the mind.
The more you think about it though is the less time you have to fix it. So you need to teach your self a lesson to figure things out faster and faster and always make the right choice.
R.I.P Alan Watts. Legend
This video editing is close to perfection. The way the people's faces and emotions are intercut adds to the depth. Allan Watts masterfully narratives our lives as clouds. Thank you a million times for sharing this with me.
Einaudi and Alan Watts is a divine combination
This video makes you plunge so deep in your memory
