Thank you. I know that for me and many others, Alan is our wise old friend we can always count on. So grateful and blessed to have these talks available. 🙏
I was 11 years old and I randomly found a book called the world of the Buddha, laying on a desert wash under a road in Arizona. The next book I bought after I read, it was Alan Watts The Way of Zen. Still listening at 64.
I accidentally fell asleep listening to this and I dreamed that I was in a college lecture being given by him. I remember hearing and understanding the points he was making, and he even did demonstrations for the class to reinforce his points. It was crazy.
@@Dude8718you take the form of Alan himself, sounds great doesn’t it, no. I found myself as a baby Alan in preschool pondering whether I had left my oven on in the life preceding the shift in reality, and if I had, the probability of retreating back to my normal self was virtually 0. This thought occupied my mind to the point where my surroundings took the form of my deepest fears, and so I was surrounded by nothing because man’s is not scared of anything, I’m him 🤫 fetch me opioids fetch me opioids, weenack
So i know how much people enjoy Mr Watts without music, however listening to his lectures while listening to the ambience of Skyrim or Oblivion is truly an experience to behold!
That honestly sounds pretty bad ass. Another good mix is alan with rain sounds, it's pretty relaxing. There is a bu ch of alan watts chill step out there that's pretty cool as well. Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙂
Thank you for watching! This is the first full long talk I've posted, I have access to a rather large collection for the moment so if you have anything of Alan's you would like me to post and you know the name of the talk I could probably make a video for it. 🙂
Thank you! Make sure you check my playlists out. I have most of the retail collection of alans work on this channel. Alot of it is copyrighted so I apologize for all the extra ads, I don't get paid for them but I can't control them all I can do is delete the copyrighted ones. Most people who watch this channel have youtube premium so I leave them up.
@@MeekersMadhouse for real it's amazing, the more of talks you listen to the more it seems like he knew a lot about what was coming. How he still can remain relevant so many years later is pretty crazy. 🙂
I feel like no one stops to actually think and possibly predict the future bc theyre too busy thinking what their parents told them to. @@TheMysticalCompass
@@jessicathrasher2692 I agree. Just being born into a society like ours, you are basically indoctrinated. You're told how to act, think and be and who you are.
@kobrabushcraft536 this is on of my favorites, this and the joker. So much packed into them you can listen over and over and still pick up new things. 🙂
It should really be hammered in, that these ideas only be used to better understand oneself. Otherwise by clarifying problems with the world - especially when they're so spot on - that can really send one into a deep depression. Because no matter how right it is, it won't change anyone else. And the more right it is, the harder it will be to accept that it can't be changed. That can lead one down the path of Sauron and Morgoth, wanting to change what can't be changed. And the more one heads into the light, the darker things that aren't start to look and feel. Which can have the opposite effect of creating a very dismal experience! Just a friendly reminder.
@@kayweiss7207 I'm working on it 🙂 I have three more videos to complete the religion of no religion talks and I'll start uploading the long format ones 👍
I have a definably peculiar experience in life, but I am not really into definition, I enjoy the curiosity of the syncronic happenings, for this, I often review the situational occurrence as an occasion to review, as if, life were a book, what are the possibilities of meaning or not

@@slim-n-wavy9041 if I do use ads it would only be the normal ones, people using ads every 8 minutes are why I made this channel that and music, ruin the talks for me. Thanks for the sub and the comment 🙂
I love it when people in the audience start giggling and laughing like they're in on the big joke. As if they understand LOL. And then I giggle at them like I know something they don't know. 😂 like I'm in on some bigger joke!? Instant Karma's going to get you baby❤❤❤❤
Sorry they are copyrighted so I don't have control over the ads. I only put the standard before and after ads on them. If you look at my most recent video it has no ads, it's long like this one, the complete seminar. Sorry.
I often contemplate life as if it were a book with character relationship. Mostly due to the surreal experience being of a majority, along with coincidence beyond normal standards of rationalization, more in the sense of what, Jung, called synchronicity. But , as far as, if it were a book, I could not put the story together better, or embellish an extreme, past its present
@@luzikii823 Thanks for commenting, I'm 40. 🙂 I think it's hard for people to initially find Alan. I listened to Terrence McKenna's stuff for a couple years and then Alan popped up in recommend, that's how I found him. I never heard anyone really talk about him otherwise except for in psychedelic communities.
I found Alan when I was 19 and I’m now 27. It’s a real blessing to find out about this completely different way of looking at life at such a young age. I know it changed the course of my life completely - as of now I’ve listened to hundreds of hours of Alan’s lectures, and plenty of Ram Dass as well. These people really knew the truth and spoke the truth, we truly are blessed to get to hear it, amidst all the nonsense, lies and illusions around.
I'm 51 and find him fascinating and calming. I have listened for a few years, but I could REALLY have done with his words when I was young to get me through (for me) those difficult years!
Thank you! I've already been copyright struck a few times 😅. I'm wondering if monetizing the channel has anything to do with people getting shut down. Three of my videos have strikes but TH-cam hasn't hit me with anymore since.

@@TheMysticalCompass you are truly amazing and humble. This quickly became one of my favorite channels. I will be revisiting for years! Super high quality. And alot dialogue that is new to me... THE GOODIEST OF GOODIES 😂
Sorry most of alans lectures are copyrighted, I don't have control over the ads when they get flagged. Originally I only put the standard ads on, before and after the video, no mid roll. Once they get copyrighted they put a crazy amount of ads on them. I don't get paid for them at all, I know it ruins the lectures. If you look at my most recent videos, or the play list section. I have a list of lectures with no ads. Feel free to check them out if you can. Again, i apologize for the inconvenience.
Thank you for commenting! You can follow along word for word on the Alan watts website. Nothing is altered or added. I remove the background noise and increase the volume, that's it. Here's the website with the transcript of the talk. alanwatts.org/transcripts/world-as-play/

@@sourcetext he died from really just not taking care of his self, smoking probably contributed a great deal to his declining health. Alan never claimed to be the Messiah or to have all the answers, he said in many of his talks that what he says shouldn't be taken seriously or literally, he was an entertainer. Yet still to this day people have this weird connotation that he thought he was God or something like that, people seem offended just by his existence. It's usually some sort of projection, or taking a small audio bite out of context. 🙂
This is an AI generated audiofragment from Alan Watts. Parts from other talks have been combined into sentences that make sense, for most fit together quit frankly.

I discovered Alan Watts in ‘73… he is a wonder and I never cease to enjoy and be soothed by… thank you!
Your welcome! I don't remember exactly when I found Alan but life has been better since. 🙂

I remember the moment he brought me Satori. If only I had heard him twenty years sooner.
My first Alan Watts book was
The Wisdom of Insecurity… I still read it.
I love that there is a community out there of people like him.
✌️🌀🧓🌀👍
Yes, please. Upload any tape of his, especially those without background music. Cheers, it's alway nice to listen to the man.
@@manir61 Thank you! I'm trying to upload as much as I can, when I have time. 🙂
Yes. No background noise is needed
