I don't think I'd be here without Mr. Watts. I'm okay with not being okay now because of him. Yes life is quite shitty at times, but those shitty times showed me the bliss of now. Yeah even now I have worries, but here right now, the trees sway with the wind. The buzzy bee goes to kiss the flower and the spider eats the fly. The things that I can observe in a moment help me to not worry about the past or future as much as I used to.
OK and not ok is subjective it's all just time needed to understand if you were never unhappy how could you understand someone else who is unhappy by the same count happiness. But with happiness it cause jealousy why are they happy and I'm not but if you celebrate there happiness you in turn become happy I do hope you are not happy or sad but just you
If "the guru" is the one who helps you wake up, then you, sir Watts, were mine. I am 100% sure that I would not still be alive if Alan Watts had never existed. He was a modern-day prophet. The Mr. Rogers of philosophy. The fact that he would even attempt to explain God, the universe, consciousness, thoughts, dreams, and everything that we see and hear and are and experience - in short, every topic science still cannot explain - was what made him exceptional. The fact that he could do it so simply, so elegantly, and all while laughing at the simple joy, absurdity, and delight of being alive is what made him truly one of a kind. I'm sure that he is still out there, wiggling and waving his way around the great "what is," laughing and dancing and cheering for us all until we re-join him.
As well as the playing hide and seek with ourself. That helped me remember how light and fresh i can be, and how playful. I love listening and gaining understanding, clarity. ❤
I experienced a pretty good shift at the point of discussion when Alan was talking abt the guru, and the question who are you? And i said in my head i am you. Allen describing the photo he walked past every day, and i got rhis moment of understand what it really means to see ourselves in eachother..Also, perceiving cash as trading paper for substance, or service. That really clicked for me. THANK YOU FOR PASSING ON KNOWLEDGE!!!!!
What a beautiful comment, to celebrate a very beautiful man,,quite frankly I wouldn't be here myself,,and I'm so very grateful to the late,GREAT,,ALAN WATTS,,WHAT A MAN,,ABSOLUTE GEM,,GOD BLESS ALAN,THE WORLD THANKS YOU FOR CLEVER,BEAUTIFUL, AND MOST ELEQAINTLY DESCRIPTION OF HUMANITY AND UNIVERSAL CONCESNES, AND OUR TRUE PLACE IN THIS WORLD ❤😊
Life is A lucid dream ‘ Since we all Know ‘ we’re Not our Minds or Thoughts or Thinker or Past Stories ‘ we Are The Watchers That watch The Silent Wittness The observer of All ‘
This is quite prophetic, when you think about it. In 2024 we record everything on our phone. Ask yourself to...when was the last time I looked at that recording? Automatons. Sad but true.
I love this lecture; such a refreshing optimism. I'm troubled by the music. The mysterious minor drone and shortness of its repetition is in complete contrast to the expansiveness of this awareness. It's ominous and heavy and does not support the content.
I Am Huckthai I Am Good!! "If you bring forth what is within you, what is within you will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what is within you will destroy you." Amen_Satu ♾️HS♾️
Very interesting talk, sometimes seems contradictory (rely on others/our consciousness is all) and of course mythical flat vs real round earth. Thank you.

An eye isn't an eye if he is alone. If another eye is watching another, they both become something. Life is point of view X point of view. Result is creation.
Incredible man, but it's disgraceful that in this video, he expresses his belief that a father has no moral obligation to support and raise his children. In actual life, this man was a philanderer, and that is something that I believe hurt people, including his family. Watts is incredible and profound, but sometimes his glibness reveals a shallowness of character, and a lack of integrity not in keeping with the rest of his teachings.
To tell a father that there isn't an obligation to raise a child is also telling the child that they were not hated or abandoned. My father shouldve stayed gone. He is not a good influence. A father forced is a forceful father.
I've learned A.I draws the strangest pictures. Extra arms and hands where there shouldn't be, legs that are too long for a seated human, joints that bend abnormally. Listening to Alan is great but viewing the pictures really ruins the authenticity of the video for me.
He sounds so wise, doesn’t he? This wise man was a hopeless alcoholic who drank himself to death because he was horribly depressed with life. The surety with which he speaks on all these spiritual matters is well practiced, though it seems that the man himself fell well short of true actualization.
Yeah I agree he probably didn't have the realization. Although the reason why he is so sure in his lectures isn't because he is well practiced but rather it is the same reason he was depressed and alcoholic, which is that he intellectually understood all this stuff but he couldn't stop operating in the illusion of it. So talking about it was the only relief he could get other than alcohol and women. The reason why I say that is that I'm kind of in a similar position now where all of this makes sense intellectually, and all I want to do is talk to others about it instead of actually doing the work and the practice in order to dissolve it.
Btw, if anyone is interested in this stuff, it's also known as awakening, enlightenment, self-realization, satori, etc. Here is a clear, thorough and non-spiritual explanation of it and how it happens: th-cam.com/video/F_8hbv3G1Q8/w-d-xo.html In my own words: Self-realization/awakening is the complete understanding of who you are that results in dissolution of the "self." It's the ending of identification with thought, which results in there no longer being any internal conflict because all "problems' are fundamentally a result of a misunderstanding that we are thought and can be hurt by other thoughts. Also good channel regarding inquiry practice that I found helpful: th-cam.com/video/_OvavYNNW5U/w-d-xo.html

I was just wondering why you didn't put your many comments in one comment? It would make more sense to anyone reading if they were all together instead of split up as sometimes the context of what you are trying to say is lost.

That's what i thought too. If one paid attention to spoken words the music is not a barrier at all
@@Guvnor6 I love the music
For years now, I've listened to this man. His words and wisdom has pushed me to understand things differently and changed the way I view life

Everything is everything and something to infinity except nothing
Always living in groups requires communication then language. But we are still each alone
RIP Alan Watts
The point is, the body does not die, but the mind goes on telling the opposite
What's name of the background music? mystically melodious!
Great music
The music is distracting and unnecessary
I agree. It's nice to see that this channel's newer videos don't have music.
AMEN,,,
and now, if your mind is not quiet like a still water, everything is a catasrophy hunting the next
I wish I could've met him. I'd have so many questions😊
I won't write my story. I live my story
Thank you for the video, what’s the name of the composer or music in the background?
In dead, only the present moment exists
True✨️
Background music us divine ☘️🌻🍄🧡💛💚💙❤️
Can you please tell the name?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ty ganga white night for sampling this. You don’t know how much this means. Lol or maybe you do
Music ruins this master of speech....
Interesting

So better you use your living days to calm the mind
only sat
Brilliant Alan Watts, as always! Such a pity about the intrusive, distracting 'music' and images. Totally unnecessary! Nevertheless, Thank you!

What song is in the background?
Tag you're it
then, once you were alive, so once you have to be dead
27:06 Part 2 nature of consciousness
This would be better without the high-pitch suspense music...
Once you were young, so once you have to be old, and then?

then then ends
Where does ones consciousness originate from?
Major rushes 🤌🏽
I wish there wasn't the annoying music.

He's been honest about a human frailty of which judgement of others is also, " judge not lest ye be judged" !
To tell a father that there isn't an obligation to raise a child is also telling the child that they were not hated or abandoned. My father shouldve stayed gone. He is not a good influence. A father forced is a forceful father.
the mind goes on telling you, that your body will die, which is not true
The mid video transition was extremely jarring. I hope you stop using it in the future
Then the best of is not as advertised
So true
I've learned A.I draws the strangest pictures. Extra arms and hands where there shouldn't be, legs that are too long for a seated human, joints that bend abnormally. Listening to Alan is great but viewing the pictures really ruins the authenticity of the video for me.
I like better with out music!
Duck the music
