If you are reading this, you are going to celebrate something really special really really soon, you will be full of joy and happiness sharing your good news. It will almost seem out of this world how suddenly it all happened for you. Be ready, expect it, it’s happening ~ Much love from a Law Of Attraction TH-camr💜
Im one those folks who arrived at 40. What Alan Watts describes is exactly how I feel. It's all con. I'm so glad I'm beginning to wake up. I feel so much better already. I'm excited about this new journey I'm embarking on.
I very much like this speech. It is so true that when we take life not as seriously and see it as a game we can accomplish our goals and stay young and cheerful like children. This is actually how I live my life.
I dont like thinking of it that way, its not a game. Pain hurts some ppl die horrific deaths its sad a.f I do get it tho when u pass the test you smile with joy and that smile is earned now if u laugh when someones dying youre hysterical or psychotic. Its easy for a white man who probably had a hella privileged upbringing to say lifes a game. Try getting raped then tell me "lol lifes a game". Disgusting notion. Lifes not a game its a war zone.
@@HighPriestess-mq5hc those people who see life as a game and live like that hurt me so much. The adults who never grow up and pretend to be a baby are horrible. Life certainly is not a game. Millions die from starvation. There are struggles like unable to walk or loss of love ones.
@@callensapelak6370 but he’s speaking more of like a conscious aspect and when he says game he doesn’t mean you laugh at death rapes etc he means when you look at life like it’s a Game it basically mean you look at life differently from other ppl and you use it to your advantage because some ppl let certain things in life stress them out til there sick then they die from it But it if you don’t take things so seriously and try to see things differently than other ppl you can make your life better and live longer and healthier I think you guys are missing the whole point of the lecture ~
I've lived my life this way, I have never 'grown up' , I'm 57 now, married and have 2 sons. Life has been a challenge but the child in me has never left.
This made me cry because I have felt even cheated out of all of this stuff the world told me I needed to do to have money and help my family but it's really just about letting what we were taught go....let it go. It takes a long time but it's worth it. ❤️🌼🙏
@@birke571 your reply is pure evil with no good in it. Is that who you are? A person who possess a soul would not, could not, deliver such a cruel blow to another soul. Flesh wounds heal, leaving a physical scar that is forgotten when we die. Soul wounds? They heal too. It takes a lot longer. They leave a spiritual scar. Scars on a soul are not erased by death. They are eternal. Your evil hate will return to you. Eternally. When it is returned to you, remember this deed you have done. The evil that you recieve is your fault. You did it to yourself. It is coming. Wait for it....
Cindy, you are NOT a loser. Your tears prove that you have a soul. Having a soul, makes you a winner! The real losers are those who walk among us who were born without souls. You go ahead and cry those tender tears. The angels weep with you. Jesus wept! I, and many others, feel what you are feeling. Now. Dry your eyes. Blow your nose. Get busy. You have a lot of lost time to make up for. Get out there and LIVE! LAUGH! LOVE!. Savor every moment like it is a fine wine. Peace be with you.
This made me cry too. I’ve understood this without even knowing it. I am playful like a child, but get angry with seriousness. Deadlines. People wanting to one up each other. People wanting to always be better than the other. Be playful. Live your play. My personal thing is being in nature. Nature is peace. The city is seriousness. I find true harmony when I’m in nature.
What I love about Alan Watts is that no matter when you were born, who you are, or where you are, you can relate to what he says. Almost everything he utters, is thought provoking . Venerable philosopher 👍
Wow. Just learned about this through my journey. Things just got a lot more exciting! I don’t think I’m gonna sleep tonight. ❤ everyone reading this. 💪🙌
To be playful. That is the key. Relax and take it easy. Life is like music. Has no begining and no end. We have to take life easy. It is a musical thing. We have to let it play.
We don't have to do anything. Just stop drinking fluids and die in a few days, if you want. If you can. I really would, if I wasn't so afraid of what awaits me. The evil I know is better than the evil I don't know. Life does have a clear beginning and an end. Unless you're telling me you remember before birth, that you have been living in a present moment since before you were born, forever and ever never created? It's all well and good, until you live a life like mine. Where one day you're moments away from a Heavenly state of being, call it Nirvana or being one with Buddha, if you will. The very next day you get raped by an invisible entity. That won't leave you alone, ever, day or night. For many years. Always there, a worm squirming in your ass, in spirit. Manipulating your spirit and your thoughts and your beliefs. Is it my fault for being too playful? I tripped on an intentional drug overdose of an antidepressant (for the sole reason of investigating the answer to "why am I?") I left my body because it hurt so much, fought dying, and came back. I learned how to separate myself from body while sober soon after. Now no exorcists of any faiths, nor pills doctor prescribe can fix me. Dancing all day hasn't fixed me. We have to take life easy? If I have to do anything, it's take the hard life I was given. As is written in the Tao Te Ching - "easy and difficult define eachother." I have to see it through, because there is no other choice for me. Suicide is not an option. Be playful? Life isn't serious? Hey let's play the game - throw a knife into the ceiling. All fun and games until someone loses an I. According to Buddha, life is suffering. Growing up, hurts. Growing old, hurts. Just my experience. You have no idea how much life can suck, neither do I. It could be worse, it could always be worse. The question that nobody living can answer with any degree of certainty - why am I? Not to be confused with the question - how am I? The most common answer I see to "why am I?" Is to be "happy". How am I supposed to be happy when there's very many, very real people experiencing very real suffering? If you can't tell me why am I, you can't tell me anything. The only one I can trust is Christ, but I can't even trust the Bible! It is full of inconsistencies. The Lord purportedly said as inscribed in the Bible - "Call no man your father or teacher, for I am your Father and Teacher". The Holy Spirit, another aspect of the Lord. Maybe? Maybe not? I can't even trust my own sense of "spirit" "prana" "chi" thanks to this unforgivable evil entity attached to me! Or maybe I am the unforgivable one, considering my pleas to any who will listen to me, yet here this evil thing remains. I did see the Lord's face, where the sun was supposed to be, smiling. In one of my very real (for me), not a dream, not on hallucinogens, not a lack of sleep, no lapse in consciousness, out of body experiences. It freaked me out and snapped me back to reality. That was months before I was raped and lost the ability to leave my body. I wasn't even a Christian at that time, nor before that! I don't know if I am one now. I have to believe there's a point though, a reason for this existence. Music exists for a reason, doesn't it? The reason for suffering, no good reason to begin with, to lead us *all* to a point of no more suffering. One way or another. In atheistic science, life is accidental, and everything dies. Stars die, light dies, the universe itself is predicted to die. Life is meaningless, if it is totally transient, with none left to remember any of it. There is the possibility that the whole universe is born again, possibly in an even worse configuration. If that is the case, we're all in Hell already. In Eastern thought, you're trapped in an endless cycle of life and death. A trap of suffering. The only way to escape is to transcend your individual existence. Become "one with the universe" or however you want to phrase it. Meanwhile, the rest of the universe that you have become continues to suffer. Being born into your fake self, to return to your true self. Over and over, on and on, forever and ever. In Hinduism, it's all a cycle, and the "period of darkness" we're in is the longest one, if I recall correctly. Where is the peace and joy in that? Sounds like Hell to me. My only hope is God, which is indeed separate from me. I did not create me, because I would not create me. I do believe Christ died for us to save us. But maybe not in the way that other people think. I don't know, I don't know what to believe anymore. Just a loving whisper of vibratory wind within, juxtaposed against the evil serpent worm and its influence. The love telling me one day it'll be ok, beyond that I cannot discern. Somehow, in some way, someone or something out there cares about me. I would've died of an infection spreading to my brain this year from my teeth. I had to have 3 different antibiotic prescriptions, it was so bad. If it was not for hundreds of points of energy vibrating inside my head. Helping to heal my physical ailment. But why help me stay alive and physically well, if I cannot truly heal? We will see...we will see...
Clutching or as I lovingly refer to it, white knuckling life (imagine gripping the bar of an amusement ride so tightly you can see the white on your knuckles) is a way of playing the game of life, but it is an impoverished way. Throwing your hands up into the air and allowing yourself to be taken by this ride is arguably more fun. When I find myself holding on too tight, Alan helps me relax & let go. I have a philosophy, whereby I fundamentally believe that the universe likes to help itself so of course the universe would pattern as Alan Watts for the ages.
Sharing ur time with others are MOST important in ur life , seeing facial expressions when u share time with them , remembering the laughs and joys of one another , when u get older u will remember them , and some are heart breaking , because they are NOT here anymore .
Well I still remembered my mother's laughter and she has passed away when I remembered the memories, I smiled and knew that I was loved and she was loved
No, the most important thing is to become self-fullfilled without the need for external influences. Those same people that can bring you joy can also ruin your energy/life. If you are self-fulfilled, you can appreciate positive experiences with people, but also let them go if they become toxic to you. People come and go, it's important to learn that.
I’d almost forgotten ho much I appreciated Alan Watts. One thing I have loved to see is when highly respected minds let go with joy and laughter. Particularly recall a video of Desmond Tutu and The Dalai Lama sitting next to each other; the narrator was droning on and you could see the two men in their red and pink robes burst into hearty delicious laughter.
This is beautiful. I have been living in the now, for quite some time...others tend to not understand. That's okay, hopefully whey will understand, eventually.
This is some of the best stuff I have ever heard! I can only hope that others will get the same joy out of hearing this because I do believe life in general is always taking way too seriously! It's more about all the little things that most take for granted each and every day! Enjoy the simple things in life and watch your life change for the better right before your eyes!
I truly love this man, the knowledge he conveys to us. I've not in my 56 years on this plant earth been pulled in completely by another as Mr Watts He says we don't die instead like sound or water waves we just continue on forming a new. He's truly correct in saying this, right now I'm being transfixed not by a recording but by a man and what he's saying. Live on forever especially when you find yourself in the above and beyond. Life on earth is touchy those who are giving the gift to touch, move both physically and mentally and spitually the masses are those with the shortest time to do so. There is probably others like Mr Watts alive today but as I said my time will run out before I'm able to dive in . Thank you Mr Watts for everything.
I loved this speech. It makes you slow down and think of our daily lives that we are missing. It reminds me of my husband. He buys a new truck and before he gets home he is planning his next truck! STOP! Enjoy the moment.
The meaning of life..... in my mystical years I think it's about living life as you want to that will bring you laughter, joy and peace between the demanding work times. You have to be able to enjoy life as hard as that may be for many of is. But find your laughter, find what gives you joy. ENJOY your life🤗💕
Anything and everything this man spoke was truth!!💯💯... Talk about having the gift of gab... He was able to explain such deep concepts in a way that is untouchable. Brilliantly spoken every time
You never failed to amaze us, Alan .. you answer the most sophisticated question with a simple and profound statement . It seems as creation is God’s favorite game and we are part of it . Let’s play .
This is truly amazing! It perfectly encapsulates the essence of life. We are living in a world where Alan Watts’ ideas are becoming a reality-working from home after COVID, the concept of having two places become one, and the disruption of traditional rules of play. While the pursuit of rapid progress may seem appealing, it’s important to remember that the journey itself is what truly matters. Just as music is a beautiful experience, life should be enjoyed and appreciated for its own sake, without the constant pressure to reach a destination.
Just like a bar magnet has 2 opposite poles that cannot be separated, we are the same. I use this very premise as key to my latest free program Breaking Through Depression that I'm furiously working to complete before the end of this month. Love Alan Watts.
Don't focus on the times. This works for my personality. Just focus on observing your own habits and behaviour. Don't criticize other, just work on yourself. If you work on becoming good (by your own standard, not expectations) and wise, by focusing on what you think, do and say, then you will have a wonderful life regardless of what what tragedies befall you.
Nothing can exist without it's opposite! Without Fwd there can't be a backwards. No such thing as a cup with an inside but no outside. Because the two are One! 🙏🏼
The smaller visible finite material realm universe exists within/beneath the bigger invisible infinite spirit realm universe. This makes you and i speaks of the infinite all/god, however, we are not the Infinite Spirit Realm Godhead while we exist as finite material realm beings. If true, consider the Hubble UDF observation of one hundred and seventy-six billion galaxies with the possibility of multi/bubble/parallel universes too. Next, consider millions of earth-like planets in different historical timelines to our planet earth. Consider reincarnation, or completing the reincarnation process to merge into the Infinite Godhead. IMO the endgame goal is to remain infinite without beginning, ending or suffering. To stay at our true home as to be one with Godhead. *A Complete Macrobiotic Yin Yang Philosophic Understanding Combined With Its Practical Dietary Discipline Is Timeless Universal Law.

Now this is truly one of the first youtube videos where the inserted video scenes DO support and even enhance the magistic spoken words. Great video and SO true!
An utmost extremely powerfull speech that we should really pay close attantion to. I feel it contains all the truths about how I perceive the universe and he just has a way of formulating it so beautifully. It is what you know once you understand the fundaments of spirituality, more straightforward and simple than one might think. That the world is made out of two primal energies (female and male is what you could call it). We can create with these energies and that's what life is about. Living and creating within dualism. Goosebumps.
I learned to put it that opposites define each other and wouldn't exist without each other; this being a relative universe. But this is more elegant. Thank you.
Short story - There were two people jhon and shane, Jhon and shane got very sad the same day, Jhon went out and spent all his saving to feel good, Shane was aware of his sadness, did not spend anything to feel good. Moral of the story - Happiness and sadness comes out of set set judgement tackle the judgement not the feel.
My face is very serious all my life because I was tough this way, I learned life is not serious how can I undo this ,,I love Alan watts and I just met him 💙 ❤ I am very thankful
“now you see it, now you don’t” sir that explains most of my psychedelic trips leading up to my current state of ups and down seeing “it” then me letting it slip
Another great video by you, T&H...thank you. I remember one of your first "What If Money Was No Object" (the original one) and I've loved all of the ones following. Thanks to you (and of course to Alan Watts) for making a difference in the world.
Alan watts throws me off to straight out another kingdom apart from of this world. I can not hide it from anyone when he touches me. I have to avoid him when time is not enough
As humans, we have got to have more of a sense of being less poignant from velcroing ourselves to our unbenevolent sore pasts. Drown the past and make sure its dead and has an unmarked grave so you can rest assured that you do not visit it again. Set your mindset to present and future instead. These functions are the optimistic ones. The mistakes you have made for life's growth can no longer be corrected, manipulated or should allow your mind to be obtainable. Instead, let it be aspiring, humbling and rejecting. For we flourish from wisdom for every experience of life's suffering to succumb to us to be the diamonds that truly shine only if you allow yourselves to accept the rugged flaws you go through first. Alan Watts is a genius and we should learn from him.
“The Universe has a tendency to creep up upon itself and shout…Boo!👻” - Alan Watts. “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from Magic, including time travel, and that’s called a quantum leap of faith.” - Me. ❤
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could all realise the musicality in the way that we live life. Perhaps then, we would learn to live in harmony with one another. 🙏❤️🙏
Omg so powerful! Thank you. I recently escaped domestic violence ran for my life with just me 2 small dogs. Been in my car two weeks , right before Xmas no where to go. But this THAT I JUST HEARD MEANT SO MUCH TO ME 😔
I was thinking about everything this man just said, and, almost out of instinct, searched the words "duality of the universe" in youtube to see if someone, anyone, had already realized it all. Thing is, they did!
What a refreshingly different approach to life. Deep inside something in me always knew this, but it got overlaid by today's social outlook. Thank you for reminding me of the truth of our existence.
It is all true. From a 65 y.o. woman who raised 3 children and worked 40 of those years. I am totally drained. I have a comfortable life but no Joy. No surprises. I missed the Music. I missed the dance.
Please do not despair - There's much more in front of us: "There's More to Heaven & Earth than Are Dreamt of in Man's Philosophies..." Be Kind - Especially to Yourself 💜♾️🗽 Today
This is why everyone needs a large amount of money given to them say 10 million per person, so they can live out their lives (working of course to a certain age) but to have the funds to buy things they’ll enjoy and be able to afford experiences such as traveling to beautiful places. People are put through schools to be able to get ready for the work force. Life is not about working, however most of society is always focused on end goals like graduating from high school or college, and that’s why lots of people say their childhood flew by. Life should be about enjoyment however you may do that. Not about progressing to new technological advancements. Not about politics. Not about reaching end goals, but enjoyment. Sooner than you know it death will consume your consciousness and you will be nothing but a lifeless body eventually decomposing, and it would be a shame to die with the fact that you did not enjoy life and worked for most of it only to grow old wishing you were younger.
£10 million. A person working nmw for 40hours a week won’t earn £1million in their whole lifetime- minus rent, bills, food, clothing. You have to EARN a life not just assume you deserve one. The population is far more than jobs/food/water available- do some expect to live for free? Or from rich people charity? It’s designed to only allow the rich to live and enjoy. Poor people can’t- they are seen as different people all together. People are too obsessed with money to climb the ladder of society. The rich will always rule the world and get away with murder.
Wow, this really spoke volumes. At the same time, I couldn't help think this is going to be an informative video on what us humans used to be like for A.I in the future
We take our thoughts so seriously and that gets us tied into knots that don't allow us free movement. We think, well, these are my thoughts coming from my self and I have to take them seriously if I am to take myself seriously. And assuming that leaves no room. If we can even for a short while not take our thoughts seriously then we are simply aware of the show while we are the show.
Om Namah Sivaya, very interesting. Thank you. Allan Whatts, on duality: The only disagreement I've got, is that people don't laugh in churches, or temples, eg cause laughter is of the mind; smile is of the spirit, spirit is peaceful and blissful, silent. Same as senses is of the mind; and transcendental wisdom with intuition is of the spirit. Omtatsat)
this happend to my son in church....the preacher was talking about petrus.....my son was young at that moment....and my son said....yeah my dad is the best friend of petrus....my best friend is peter and i always call him petrus...just for the fun of it....the church starts to laugh....so you see kids have there unic way of seeing things...i was not there at the moment but it was great fun to hear it....and so there are always exceptions.
So crazy these messages from you good people I have been waking up everyday qnd now I'm breaking down just outta no where tears of joy I feel sumthing in my stomach everyday I feel sumthin coming but fear is way down there but I know it's the one it's our time to rest qnd go home I wanna cry cause how long we all have been here waiting and what has been doing such a thing to us all I'm glad God made u all so now I don't have to be all e anymore when I go home I can have q big family again :*)
I don't know everyday what I'm going threw but the feelin is so strong on me now I don't know what to do my whole body is changing I don't know why I'm breaking down and feeling how I do and animals i love more and I love more and more i I'm awake all this is over whelming but at the same time I'm smiling I see paradise in my image it's beautiful equal for all..... bless you all

I tripped on an intentional drug overdose of an antidepressant (for the sole reason of investigating the answer to "why am I?")
I left my body because it hurt so much, fought dying, and came back.
I learned how to separate myself from body while sober soon after.
Now no exorcists of any faiths, nor pills doctor prescribe can fix me. Dancing all day hasn't fixed me.
We have to take life easy? If I have to do anything, it's take the hard life I was given.

Be playful? Life isn't serious? Hey let's play the game - throw a knife into the ceiling. All fun and games until someone loses an I.

I have to believe there's a point though, a reason for this existence. Music exists for a reason, doesn't it?
The reason for suffering, no good reason to begin with, to lead us *all* to a point of no more suffering. One way or another.
In atheistic science, life is accidental, and everything dies. Stars die, light dies, the universe itself is predicted to die. Life is meaningless, if it is totally transient, with none left to remember any of it.
There is the possibility that the whole universe is born again, possibly in an even worse configuration.
If that is the case, we're all in Hell already.
In Eastern thought, you're trapped in an endless cycle of life and death. A trap of suffering.
The only way to escape is to transcend your individual existence. Become "one with the universe" or however you want to phrase it. Meanwhile, the rest of the universe that you have become continues to suffer. Being born into your fake self, to return to your true self. Over and over, on and on, forever and ever.
In Hinduism, it's all a cycle, and the "period of darkness" we're in is the longest one, if I recall correctly.
Where is the peace and joy in that? Sounds like Hell to me.
My only hope is God, which is indeed separate from me. I did not create me, because I would not create me.
I do believe Christ died for us to save us. But maybe not in the way that other people think.
I don't know, I don't know what to believe anymore.
Just a loving whisper of vibratory wind within, juxtaposed against the evil serpent worm and its influence. The love telling me one day it'll be ok, beyond that I cannot discern.
Somehow, in some way, someone or something out there cares about me.
I would've died of an infection spreading to my brain this year from my teeth.
I had to have 3 different antibiotic prescriptions, it was so bad.
If it was not for hundreds of points of energy vibrating inside my head. Helping to heal my physical ailment.
But why help me stay alive and physically well, if I cannot truly heal?
We will see...we will see...

Clutching or as I lovingly refer to it, white knuckling life (imagine gripping the bar of an amusement ride so tightly you can see the white on your knuckles) is a way of playing the game of life, but it is an impoverished way. Throwing your hands up into the air and allowing yourself to be taken by this ride is arguably more fun. When I find myself holding on too tight, Alan helps me relax & let go. I have a philosophy, whereby I fundamentally believe that the universe likes to help itself so of course the universe would pattern as Alan Watts for the ages.
Alan Watts. What a legendary orator with a great (and often very practical) message
Sharing ur time with others are MOST important in ur life , seeing facial expressions when u share time with them , remembering the laughs and joys of one another , when u get older u will remember them , and some are heart breaking , because they are NOT here anymore .
true 🙌
Well I still remembered my mother's laughter and she has passed away when I remembered the memories, I smiled and knew that I was loved and she was loved
No, the most important thing is to become self-fullfilled without the need for external influences. Those same people that can bring you joy can also ruin your energy/life. If you are self-fulfilled, you can appreciate positive experiences with people, but also let them go if they become toxic to you. People come and go, it's important to learn that.
@@catsaregovernmentspies being self fulfilled sounds like a Buddha thing , no one is perfect so ALL we can do is remember the good things about them
I’d almost forgotten ho much I appreciated Alan Watts. One thing I have loved to see is when highly respected minds let go with joy and laughter. Particularly recall a video of Desmond Tutu and The Dalai Lama sitting next to each other; the narrator was droning on and you could see the two men in
their red and pink robes burst into hearty delicious laughter.
This is beautiful. I have been living in the now, for quite some time...others tend to not understand. That's okay, hopefully whey will understand, eventually.
Happy are those who expect nothing for they never be disappointed.
Yep, that's one of the best way to achieve hapinness
The message never gets old, Alan Watts the master!
I could spend a life time in this man's wisdom. In his music of life.
Yes. So. Right. Thank u. For this. Video hugs everybody❤️
This is some of the best stuff I have ever heard! I can only hope that others will get the same joy out of hearing this because I do believe life in general is always taking way too seriously! It's more about all the little things that most take for granted each and every day! Enjoy the simple things in life and watch your life change for the better right before your eyes!
Love Alan Watts he has a gift to simplify the complex while giving you so much inspiration to walk a different path.
I’ve rarely heard anything more profoundly true as this lecture. Thank you. 🙏🏽
I truly love this man, the knowledge he conveys to us. I've not in my 56 years on this plant earth been pulled in completely by another as Mr Watts
He says we don't die instead like sound or water waves we just continue on forming a new. He's truly correct in saying this, right now I'm being transfixed not by a recording but by a man and what he's saying. Live on forever especially when you find yourself in the above and beyond. Life on earth is touchy those who are giving the gift to touch, move both physically and mentally and spitually the masses are those with the shortest time to do so. There is probably others like Mr Watts alive today but as I said my time will run out before I'm able to dive in . Thank you Mr Watts for everything.
This one speaks from a place of undeserved comfort.
I loved this speech. It makes you slow down and think of our daily lives that we are missing. It reminds me of my husband. He buys a new truck and before he gets home he is planning his next truck! STOP! Enjoy the moment.
very inspirational indeed
this is why it is important to find who you are, that being that lives within you,
One of, if not "THE"...... best Alan Watts speeches ever. The simplicity of how he speaks is the beauty of it for me.
The meaning of life..... in my mystical years I think it's about living life as you want to that will bring you laughter, joy and peace between the demanding work times. You have to be able to enjoy life as hard as that may be for many of is. But find your laughter, find what gives you joy. ENJOY your life🤗💕
Anything and everything this man spoke was truth!!💯💯... Talk about having the gift of gab... He was able to explain such deep concepts in a way that is untouchable. Brilliantly spoken every time
You never failed to amaze us, Alan .. you answer the most sophisticated question with a simple and profound statement . It seems as creation is God’s favorite game and we are part of it .
Let’s play .

Everyone should listen to this and really think inward of what they really are doing with their lives!!
This is truly amazing! It perfectly encapsulates the essence of life. We are living in a world where Alan Watts’ ideas are becoming a reality-working from home after COVID, the concept of having two places become one, and the disruption of traditional rules of play. While the pursuit of rapid progress may seem appealing, it’s important to remember that the journey itself is what truly matters. Just as music is a beautiful experience, life should be enjoyed and appreciated for its own sake, without the constant pressure to reach a destination.
I love the analogy of music and dance. Perfect.
This guy has such amazing insight a true genius.
When your ears are ready for the truth here come the lips to fill them with wisdom.
I just feel I'll cry ,whenever I hear your voice 🙏🏻
What an enlightening and uplifting spiritual podcast. Thankyou, Merry Christmas...
Just like a bar magnet has 2 opposite poles that cannot be separated, we are the same. I use this very premise as key to my latest free program Breaking Through Depression that I'm furiously working to complete before the end of this month. Love Alan Watts.
The best 10 minutes of life explained
all inclusive consciousness theory on my channel...it's shorter and clearer...you'll find it refreshing anyway
This is the "good times creates weak men" part of the cycle. Don't get complacent
Which creates tough times which creates strong men
Don't focus on the times. This works for my personality.
Just focus on observing your own habits and behaviour. Don't criticize other, just work on yourself. If you work on becoming good (by your own standard, not expectations) and wise, by focusing on what you think, do and say, then you will have a wonderful life regardless of what what tragedies befall you.
I started getting recommendations about this man from TH-cam and now I know why after finally listening to this. ☺
Nothing can exist without it's opposite! Without Fwd there can't be a backwards. No such thing as a cup with an inside but no outside. Because the two are One! 🙏🏼
The smaller visible finite material realm universe exists within/beneath the bigger invisible infinite spirit realm universe. This makes you and i speaks of the infinite all/god, however, we are not the Infinite Spirit Realm Godhead while we exist as finite material realm beings. If true, consider the Hubble UDF observation of one hundred and seventy-six billion galaxies with the possibility of multi/bubble/parallel universes too. Next, consider millions of earth-like planets in different historical timelines to our planet earth. Consider reincarnation, or completing the reincarnation process to merge into the Infinite Godhead. IMO the endgame goal is to remain infinite without beginning, ending or suffering. To stay at our true home as to be one with Godhead.

Now this is truly one of the first youtube videos where the inserted video scenes DO support and even enhance the magistic spoken words. Great video and SO true!
music makes the world go round and round and round...
An utmost extremely powerfull speech that we should really pay close attantion to. I feel it contains all the truths about how I perceive the universe and he just has a way of formulating it so beautifully. It is what you know once you understand the fundaments of spirituality, more straightforward and simple than one might think. That the world is made out of two primal energies (female and male is what you could call it). We can create with these energies and that's what life is about. Living and creating within dualism.
Goosebumps.
🥺😭❤️ I keep preaching this but no one is listening…
That's becuase people will only see it when they're ready to.
Live Long and Prosper Friends and Family 👪 in Life and the Infinite Universe ✨
I learned to put it that opposites define each other and wouldn't exist without each other; this being a relative universe. But this is more elegant. Thank you.
Acceptance of mistakes you've made shall make you lighter. Accept each mistake as a chance to learn and do differently. ❤

"you were supposed to dance while the music was playing" had me in tears
i danced last weekend and someone called an ambulance.
I told my Elementary teacher this and she laughed and said yes, time to play, and she turned on music 🎼 ohhh the days of delights in learning....
Brilliant graphical depiction of these words. Exactly how it happens. Thank you!
Short story - There were two people jhon and shane, Jhon and shane got very sad the same day, Jhon went out and spent all his saving to feel good, Shane was aware of his sadness, did not spend anything to feel good.
Moral of the story - Happiness and sadness comes out of set set judgement tackle the judgement not the feel.
I am always stuck dumbfounded by his wisdom.
My face is very serious all my life because I was tough this way, I learned life is not serious how can I undo this ,,I love Alan watts and I just met him 💙 ❤ I am very thankful
“now you see it, now you don’t” sir that explains most of my psychedelic trips leading up to my current state of ups and down seeing “it” then me letting it slip
WOW! This is simplicity in motion!🙏🏿❤️❤️❤️
Another great video by you, T&H...thank you. I remember one of your first "What If Money Was No Object" (the original one) and I've loved all of the ones following. Thanks to you (and of course to Alan Watts) for making a difference in the world.
Alan watts throws me off to straight out another kingdom apart from of this world. I can not hide it from anyone when he touches me. I have to avoid him when time is not enough
The perfect song is the one you sing, and move your feet.
Great Lecture......Live Life Simply.....
That's All...
Excellent! Thank you.
As humans, we have got to have more of a sense of being less poignant from velcroing ourselves to our unbenevolent sore pasts. Drown the past and make sure its dead and has an unmarked grave so you can rest assured that you do not visit it again. Set your mindset to present and future instead. These functions are the optimistic ones. The mistakes you have made for life's growth can no longer be corrected, manipulated or should allow your mind to be obtainable. Instead, let it be aspiring, humbling and rejecting. For we flourish from wisdom for every experience of life's suffering to succumb to us to be the diamonds that truly shine only if you allow yourselves to accept the rugged flaws you go through first. Alan Watts is a genius and we should learn from him.
I literally was thinking the same, few days ago. I watched this video now😭 I swear to god! What a coincidence of thought!!❤️😭 Two sides of life.
Holy shit same!!!
“The Universe has a tendency to creep up upon itself and shout…Boo!👻” - Alan Watts. “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from Magic, including time travel, and that’s called a quantum leap of faith.” - Me. ❤
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could all realise the musicality in the way that we live life. Perhaps then, we would learn to live in harmony with one another. 🙏❤️🙏
🎉222🎉
Keep life in love and gratitude and slow down and look around at Oneness. 🧲💙
🥂Thank you Alan Watts🙌
Omg so powerful! Thank you. I recently escaped domestic violence ran for my life with just me 2 small dogs. Been in my car two weeks , right before Xmas no where to go. But this THAT I JUST HEARD MEANT SO MUCH TO ME 😔
God bless you dear,
Hope everything stays alright for you!!!

Listen to this guy , inspirational 😊🏴☠️
I was thinking about everything this man just said, and, almost out of instinct, searched the words "duality of the universe" in youtube to see if someone, anyone, had already realized it all. Thing is, they did!
Thank you ❤️ all this anxiety isn’t necessary.. just let go and let SOURCE move through me as it naturally does.. flow , don’t resist. I am guided 🌟

What a refreshingly different approach to life. Deep inside something in me always knew this, but it got overlaid by today's social outlook. Thank you for reminding me of the truth of our existence.
Thank you for this kind reminder of how to live life with joy...smashing 🤗
Glad I came across this video. I needed to see this. I was lead here for a reason.
Swing on the spiral of life my friends. Let go and jump in. The water is fine
Love Alan Watts, everyone should listen to all his videos
It is all true. From a 65 y.o. woman who raised 3 children and worked 40 of those years. I am totally drained. I have a comfortable life but no Joy. No surprises. I missed the Music. I missed the dance.
Please do not despair -

This is why everyone needs a large amount of money given to them say 10 million per person, so they can live out their lives (working of course to a certain age) but to have the funds to buy things they’ll enjoy and be able to afford experiences such as traveling to beautiful places. People are put through schools to be able to get ready for the work force. Life is not about working, however most of society is always focused on end goals like graduating from high school or college, and that’s why lots of people say their childhood flew by. Life should be about enjoyment however you may do that. Not about progressing to new technological advancements. Not about politics. Not about reaching end goals, but enjoyment. Sooner than you know it death will consume your consciousness and you will be nothing but a lifeless body eventually decomposing, and it would be a shame to die with the fact that you did not enjoy life and worked for most of it only to grow old wishing you were younger.
£10 million. A person working nmw for 40hours a week won’t earn £1million in their whole lifetime- minus rent, bills, food, clothing. You have to EARN a life not just assume you deserve one. The population is far more than jobs/food/water available- do some expect to live for free? Or from rich people charity? It’s designed to only allow the rich to live and enjoy. Poor people can’t- they are seen as different people all together. People are too obsessed with money to climb the ladder of society. The rich will always rule the world and get away with murder.

@@paulsawczyc5019 really????? Uneducated and kept uneducated for simple reasons- money- funding.
Imagine no one had to work what things would be like
@@remee4685 I think people have gratitude for things earned, versus entitlement

This is so deep.. brings 😢 to my 👀 eyes .. thank you for this deep understanding.. 🙏
I became serious so young I don't even remember what it was like before.
TODO DEPENDE DE NOSOTROS Y LO IMPOSIBLE SERÁ TODO POSIBLE BENDICIONES GRACIAS PEDRO X DESDE MIAMI
Thank you for this very much. 🙏💜
Always, I learn so greatly from Allan Watts.
Great video I feel like I need to watch it again though I won't dare waste that kind of time after watching it for the first time here
I see life as a soul fulfillment such as when you experience nature and it’s calming effect. Let life in and the people that are in your life .
Wow….. he puts everything in prospective ❣️❣️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I absolutely love you sir thank you for the inspiration in my life
Wow, this really spoke volumes. At the same time, I couldn't help think this is going to be an informative video on what us humans used to be like for A.I in the future
The goat! Alan watts
When the angles gather around and encamped around those he delivers to comfort them through healing pain or sowrrows Ect they take them home!👁️👁️🙏🙌
We take our thoughts so seriously and that gets us tied into knots that don't allow us free movement. We think, well, these are my thoughts coming from my self and I have to take them seriously if I am to take myself seriously. And assuming that leaves no room.
If we can even for a short while not take our thoughts seriously then we are simply aware of the show while we are the show.
Om Namah Sivaya, very interesting. Thank you. Allan Whatts, on duality: The only disagreement I've got, is that people don't laugh in churches, or temples, eg cause laughter is of the mind; smile is of the spirit, spirit is peaceful and blissful, silent. Same as senses is of the mind; and transcendental wisdom with intuition is of the spirit. Omtatsat)
this happend to my son in church....the preacher was talking about petrus.....my son was young at that moment....and my son said....yeah my dad is the best friend of petrus....my best friend is peter and i always call him petrus...just for the fun of it....the church starts to laugh....so you see kids have there unic way of seeing things...i was not there at the moment but it was great fun to hear it....and so there are always exceptions.
So crazy these messages from you good people I have been waking up everyday qnd now I'm breaking down just outta no where tears of joy I feel sumthing in my stomach everyday I feel sumthin coming but fear is way down there but I know it's the one it's our time to rest qnd go home I wanna cry cause how long we all have been here waiting and what has been doing such a thing to us all I'm glad God made u all so now I don't have to be all e anymore when I go home I can have q big family again :*)
I don't know everyday what I'm going threw but the feelin is so strong on me now I don't know what to do my whole body is changing I don't know why I'm breaking down and feeling how I do and animals i love more and I love more and more i I'm awake all this is over whelming but at the same time I'm smiling I see paradise in my image it's beautiful equal for all..... bless you all
