- In this powerful and inspiring video, the legendary philosopher Alan Watts challenges how we ignore a fundamental cosmic truth that has the power to transform our lives. Original Audio sourced from: "The Web of Life, Part 1” by Alan Watts
►“Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence.”

T&H Inspiration is on a mission to share inspiring wisdom. The goal is to have you pause, think, and reflect. Many of our videos revolve around the extraordinary teachings of Alan Watts that we produce with permission from the Alan Watts Electronic University.
T&H also films and releases original interviews with iconic people who have experienced successes, while also persevering through life's highs and lows. We look forward to sharing more of these perspectives and insights.
Our hope with these videos is to push your thinking. As Alan Watts said “No one is more dangerously insane than one who is sane all the time: he is like a steel bridge without flexibility, and the order of his life is rigid and brittle.” - Alan Watts.
It’s a nice thing that Alan Watts is still talking to us.
Awesome that his voice and teachings live on like this!
It's a Present 🎁
I honestly don't know what I'd do without him.
You will always find wat your looking For
Alan Watts give the answers
Yes it is 😊
I’ve been listening to him for over a year now. How was he years ahead of his time. Everything relates to our world today. One of best gifts in my life is his teachings.
He went back in time to help us get ahead 😊
He just never lost the awareness we are all born with. That's why what he says resonates because we know it in our souls 🙏✨
Never shared the earth with this man, but he’s given me such great advice ❤
He's a sage, in every sense of the word. Lifted me from the dirt more than once.
❤❤❤❤❤
U have u just haven't spoke to his physical form
He is you and you are him. I am you and you are me, as well. Love you! I'll try to make you proud while you're busy over here being me and I'm proud of the me that is over there, busy being you.
He’s around
can't express how much I love this man ❤️.
We were so lucky to have him.
It’s not about the man it’s about the message. He isn’t telling you anything you don’t already know when we came here we forgot but as you start to remember the truth and reality of what is you are mesmerised and drawn to him and not even sure why you love him so much but yea that is why.
We still do have him through the medium of media.
His message still lives on from the heart of the 60s because for all we know, the people of the 60s were right.
The music, people, and art of the era still have a certain edge on today's modern world.
What was then is still very relevant today, in other words.
Alan watts is a beautiful man from this era.
@@chrisjarmain I agree 💯 💙
you can say that again.. he helped me out allot.. love you mr watts
Very
Im honoured to have spent hundreds of hours with Alan Watts, even if it's just his voice . I'm thankful. ❤
I’m so in love with life! Thanks you Mr. Watts. ❤ you left us with so much to contemplate!
I Can literally listen to all his teachings over and over for the rest of my life.
God is everyone of us.
Everyone of us is an aperture through which God looks out.
We are more than a small hole. We are the whole works.
But we ignore the background and oneness.
We can hear the music only because we can hear the tone, the interval.
Existence is the function of relationship, as basic as yin and yang.
The two are one.
Thanks Alan. 4 July 2023.🦓🎯🤡⛩✈🎅🦅😇💖🚈🐘
Our World would be so much better if Alan watts teachings is aggressively shared with all.
The heaviest line to me was "existence itself is relationship" as it is so simple yet so true. nothing exist that isn't effecting and being effected by something else. World works in many mysterious ways, but to fear it is folly. The most important thing is to try and see a bigger picture and how none of us are an island, entire of itself; isolationism at its' core is antitheses to existence. You cannot act in a way that doesn't change the world. It may seem overwhelming. Just know that everything is, in some small way, a reflection of you. You are everywhere in the world, and the world coalesced to form you. Wars had to be fought, oceans had to freeze to put anybody where they are right now. The Universe must have wanted us pretty bad considering the myriad of nearly unimaginable circumstances that plops us, here in the now.
I think you and I understand Alan in ways that most people don't. Reading this, I had to check to make sure I had not written it myself.
Sounds like a bunch of after the fact coping for why we are here in the screaming abyss to me, but if you didn't have a cope then what would you have? Not anything useful to say.
Such flowery imagery. While "coping" is an incredibly useful tool coveted and paid for by many, I don't think it's the goal. If by useful you mean tangible I think you're missing the point to life.
I could throw those words right back at you, Mr. Glass house.
@@u-mos8820 I don't want to cope, all you people do is cope, you can't throw anything at me and you're coping about that now too. This boomer never shut up about how life had no point, so I don't know how you could miss it if he's right, which I hope he's not because I don't want to be in an existential relationship with some stupid coper who can't even do better than this.
What a beautiful mind you have, I enjoyed listening to this✨️
How lucky are we to have the wisdom of this man at the tips of our fingers?
Allan Watts has been very much undervalued. He only speaks truth in such a clean way. It gets you to the core. And he had nothing to sell.
Alan has changed my life for the better. During my darkest days he's led me forward as a friend. I wish I'd met him ❤️
Wish I’d heard of this man when I was younger. Wish I’d listened to and loved my parents more, learned more loved more, learned how to interact with the world.
We are all connected. We make act like we are so different from each other, but we're not. Peace Profound to you all.
It's a blessing that we have Alan watts.😊
A sculptor does not make the stone he carves, but he creates the space which gives the sculpture its beauty
That was awesome!! The two are secretly one that’s it!!
👍 That’s part of it yes because one without the other doesn’t work. It’s unlimited. Existence is the fabric of god and we are the fabric and structure of existence itself which means we are the system when we recognised it.
❤
No separation 💙🌌💙
As you chase a fantasy your reality dies.
It is replaced by imagination and we are sometimes less happy
How much I love Alan, I can’t explain. I found him by chance years ago, listened to him for some time thinking it was just some philosophy. An awakening later, I now know what he was talking about. Existence itself. ❤
God damn fuckin growing pains. They hurt now just as much as they did 38 years ago. Alan always accelerates them.
Thank God most of his lectures are on good quality tape. I can't find the words to say how much his genius has helped me.
In the dream of life, there's only one and it's you.
Thank you, Us.
Nop. Very wrong my brother, don't be decived.
Colossians 2:8: "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."
@Ned-ICXC-Shuput Why would you think the Source of our being isn't in us to begin with?
There is only two things, eternal life or nothing at all, both equally terrifying!
Alan whatts has come into my live just when I need him and that’s now !!
I don’t know about religion but if there’s a haven or place for his soul to reside in peace and some sort of loving place I really hope he is there ❤❤
Think about this... when a baby is born and you contain love, caring and awe that is an example of The Fabulous.
All that busy life all those gorgeous faces
Do not specialize in distraction. ❤ 😊 That experience is precisely how you find your people, more importantly you. Isn't that gorgeous... Absolutely. Alan bravo love. He's always present. 😊 The steps between the tones is precisely what Gai was striving for recently. 😊 Deafness the interval is Felt. 😊 ❤
❤ you just reminded me of this beautiful saying I saved a while back
In a mother's womb were two babies. The first baby asked the other:
"Do you believe in life after delivery?"
The second baby replied, "Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.
"Nonsense," said the first. There is no life after delivery. What would that life be?
"I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths."
The doubting baby laughed. "This is absurd! Walking is impossible. And eat with our mouths? Ridiculous. The umbilical cord supplies nutrition. Life after delivery is to be excluded. The umbilical cord is too short."
The second baby held his ground. "I think there is something and maybe it's different than it is here."
The first baby replied, "No one has ever come back from there. Delivery is the end of life, and in the after- delivery it is nothing but darkness and emptiness and it takes us nowhere."
"Well, I don't know," said the twin, "but certainly we will see mother and she will take care of us."
"Mother?" The first baby guffawed. "You believe in mother? Where is she now?"
The second baby calmly and patiently tried to explain. "She is all around us. It is in her that we live. Without her there would not be this world."
"Ha. I don’t see her, so it's only logical that she doesn't exist."
To which the other replied, "Sometimes when you' re in silence you can hear her, you can perceive her. I believe that there is a reality after delivery and we are here to prepare ourselves for that reality when it comes...."
At one time you couldn’t see your Mother and yet she sustained you.
Oh, how much more real is our God.
We are programmed, from childhood, to look deeply for perfection so much so that, as adults, we miss the perfection in our very flaws. Each and every one of us, from the best to the worst, is in a constant battle to promote the best parts and demote the worst parts of our personalities. This is an incredible battle that requires great strength of character and resolute resolve. We are brilliant and we are terrible in equal measure. This is the human condition and it is a journey that never ends until it finally ends.
Wow, this is one of the most mind expanding parts of Alan's lectures I've ever heard. This genuinely does make it click what he means by "existence is a function of relationships".
This man changed my life
me too, it's like he existed for me. 😄 I say that in the most none clinging way possible.
The divine spark.
Thank you my friend.
Cometh the day
Cometh the warrior ⚚
This was one of the most beautiful
Alan watts is an inspiration, very helpful calms my brain god bless
when you master the art of words & languaging … you have a special way of tremendously expressing what the ears hear, eyes see, heart feels, what a beautiful spirit…thank you Sir 🫡
The people vs shelled sea creatures part made me think very heavily
Existence is a function of relationship.
Great upload thank you. Shows us so much!
Quantum physics, mechanic, relativity etc
you cant have one by itself 2 really equals 1 eg physical & spiritual go together you can’t have one and not the other because one without the other doesn’t work. 1 not in number but as a whole. (The meanings are endless)
Understanding the relative point of View is not necessary the point of view of the absolute!
Therefore relativity is only a tool to the absolute.
What everyone sees is relativity instead of the absolute. Religion is a good example. Religion is only relative to the absolute. There is more than one religion therefore it compares its self. while the absolute which is singular lies within all unlimited one not in number but as a whole. We have Judaism, Christianity, muslim/Islam, Hinduism, buddhism, science and the alike. Which are relative to each other but with a twist. But are the same family but different opinions. Making it a relative truth. As we look deep in, past the smoke Screen we should see the absolute. Which is singular that no one wants or can’t see.
Didn’t really want to add this bottom part but thought it’s relevant for who ever wants to read it. Sorry it’s quite long but it’s the shortened version hehe
Are we not supposed to believe in the 10 commandments? Well one of the commandments say, Thy shall not make to thy self any graven image, of anything that’s in the heavens above or the earth beneath or the waters of the earth, thy shall not bow to them nor worship them. So what’s he saying? It’s about the destruction of IDOLS! Because the most dangerous graven imagines are not those which are made of wood and stone, they are those made of IDEAS! It is we’ll known if you look, as said by the awoken ones, the only way to truely find/recognise God is by destroying all ideas you have of God. For all ideas & perception of him are all illusions/veils/limitations we put up for ourselves. They are relative which makes them limited, they are tools to guide you while the absolute which is singular lies within them all unlimited! One not in number but as a whole!
So beautiful thank u
Beautiful 😍
Outstanding video! I view it often. Thanks.
So very insightful. Thank you!
Beautiful presentation ❤
Thank you, thank you, thank you.🌸

Life is 3 parts,

That was beautiful.
Its beautiful art in all ways and i love it
Thats exactly it the building and seeding that the seeds do not percieve
Yes, agree All the best
Thank you sir
I love you Alan , thanks for everything you do 💕🔥❤️
Thanks for the endurance 🤚🏽
He's proof that the absence of the messenger's body does in no way subdue the message.
Consciousness itself, is when something experiences something...that something can be itself.
Like looking into a mirror so as to become conscious or aware of the color of ones eyes.
We are the reflection of god, created so god could reflect upon itself. Become aware/conscious itself.
Great video, editing and selection! I'm always happy when I see there's a new T&H video uploaded. Thanks! 😊
Alan Watts. 🎉🎉🎉
Love this!!
❤ this is beautiful
Epic
Awesome
How true!
Incredible
Exactly
Thanks
We are FRACTALS of Source.
Religion and government have always been the enemies of humanity.
Spirituality as Children of God is the path to follow, not religion and their rituals, doctrines and dogma.
Meditation is necessary, with introspection and self-evaluation and self-transformation. We each must "unlearn" the narrative we've been led to believe. From our parents, to school, to church to government, all of it must fall under suspicion since these institutions have each shown their hostile intents towards humanity as a whole.
The Age of Aquarius, which began in 2012, is bringing the frequencies and light-codes to help humanity break free of Kali Yuga and its curse.
We are educated to remain asleep.
This man's gives me chils
Quantum physics explain
❤❤
Sometimes I think he’s trying too hard.
We are the manifestation of the universe, God, experiencing life.
We, everyone of us, will bring our experiences in this existence to the whole.
When you look into a mirror to observe your eyes, is it you as the source that is doing the looking or is it your reflection that is doing the looking?
In a reflection, the One becomes as two, so the one can observe itself.
Or you can think that both the source and the reflection exist to observe each other.
🙏❤️🌏🕊🎶
Its teaching each other and if one place existed at one time for no reason and that means another could of already or as well than whos to say we all dont just exist and if we all work and build and teach together some mixed and who knows if others mixed and it all just dances
It’s quite possible
👍😁
😎👍❤
Everybody’s eyes are a piece of jewelry beyond compare.
I've listened to dozens of hours of this guy talking about all manner of stuff and I can't imagine being motivated or inspired by any of it, maybe ending up depressed in a mental institution. Listen to someone who wasn't a buzzkill, even if he's right you'd be better off. This philosophy of everything is one and nothing matters leaves you with very little room to have a reason to care about anything or do anything, and it leaves us all with an infinite well of meaningless suffering for innocents that is never accounted for really. Only accounted for by some cope that we/the victims are doing/causing it (just basic victim blaming) even though we literally are not as egos embodied in nature, we are basically the prisoners of a self-hating godhead if he's right. What's the benefit of knowing that, even if it were true? I will deny it for my life even if it is true, and let's see the godhead do something about it, he won't because it's all BS. Come at me demiurge.
The only stuff he's really useful for is his advice about distancing yourself from things and not overthinking everything, when he starts trying to justify the existence of the worst atrocities within the universe as being a meaningless game the victims are responsible for being part of, then I as a human being must react with revulsion and reject the very idea on principle. It is almost as anti-life a philosophy as the rigid Christianity he often criticized, and I'm not part of anyone's death cult, thanks.
What someone says is a reflection of their character. How you respond is a reflection of yours.
I am glad, my character is the most interesting one to me. I'd love to see the stuff I actually said addressed but it's a big ask for a youtube comment I know.
@@OrgusDin Personally, I think it's hardly fair to generalize his work as being single minded, or as having the potential to affect large groups of people in an overall depressing way. I mean, unless I'm missing something, a quick look at the comment section of this video alone shows quite the contrary to be true.
None of them are in here weighing in because they don't know jack, they aren't motivated enough to really think deeply, they aren't inspired enough to come up with a reply other than "lots of brainlets like this guy's slop." It disgusts me and I have great disdain for it, but I expect absolutely nothing from the combined efforts of all of you. It's a youtube comment, it doesn't have to be fair, what is Alan going to do about it? If he's right then the world's unfairness is so thoroughly baked in as to make the whole game not "worth a candle" to use his useless boomerism and indicate yes I have wasted hours of my life listening to this depressing message of nihilistic death worship mixed with eastern woo woo and cope.
100% right... exactly atomic dance at its finest true love but what it a word? Lol
Unless they are willing to help seed along the way
2:23 I m sure I do not hear regardless there, ¬godnes¬ is what I hear. (subtitle)
0:20 manifestation of words??
The works
Shhhhh ;)
What makes a living one a living one saying the right things don't be all knowing but lacking gospel of Thomas
If I drop a pencil perfect or not 😮
@ about 2:15 *ME MY SPECIFIC EGO MY JOHN JONES.* Is that why the pejorative azz - hole is SOOOOO accurate in many cases ????????
Being a twin i know all about 2 being 1 😂
Rapatimpom
The music is toooo much irritating, I can hardly hear the speach
He can talk in riddles for hours and hours..
There is only one Truth, One Way, one Life. If you don't know Him, you are not going to be saved. Amen.
Colossians 2:8: "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."
Or WEBMASTER of the entire everything universe!
Powers that be = god = ETC. = whatever! = holographic WEBMASTER!
Do you mean conductor?
UNI = ONE
VERSE = POETRY IN RHYTHM
UNIVERSE = *ONE SONG*😊
Why do we need a music bed under Alan's voice? It's distracting and usually utterly insipid. Please don't direct our attention away from Alan's Message.
i make millions frank.....
TURN THE BACKGROUND MUSIC DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE CANT EVEN HEAR ALAN OVER THESE HIGH BACKGROUND MUSIC
Thing about old Alan is that he just tells people what they want to hear. It's all wishy washy new age nonsense. People need to repent or perish. Get right with God and his son Jesus now, while you still got the time.
He says what's right it must be if it resonates if religion is right why are there so many why can't anybody decide on which1 is right ? Maybe religion is just saying what you want to hear. Forget what religion and alan says what do you say what do you fee deep inside is the truth you can have your own opinion without subscribing I lean more towards what alan is saying because its a way felt all my life.
Imagine listening to some random rag-wearing desert mongrel that got nailed to a piece of wood 2000 years ago for having schizophrenia and entertaining the idea his delusions may have been real for even an instant, how stupid could anyone possibly be?
There is no such thing as a "god". Religion is just a manifestation of ancient leaders used to control people
Ah yes. The old "My way or the highway" claptrap.
@@jackmabel6067 do you care to elaborate?
GOD ??? WE ARE GOD??? I am God? no... what an embarassing feeling to know that i am God. , alan calls me a God? I am a son of a PSYCOPATH.
So was Jesus coincidentally.
You misunderstood he says God because we have given the universal energy a name .
What lmao
One becomes one 🤍💎🩵
