- In this inspirational speech, Alan Watts addresses one of the most disruptive concepts that the ever-shattering human mind fails to grasp in very simple terms. For those who are familiar with the works of Alan Watts, this is “nothing new under the sun”, yet they would sit there, like myself, totally spellbound and listen to him speak as if they would listen to him for the first time. Such is the special magic of Alan Watts. For those who listen to him for the first time, congratulation! You have come across one of the greatest teachers of the highest truth. Your journey might start here, so make sure you check out the next Alan Watts videos. Watch and enjoy!

Speaker: Alan Watts
People live in their head.. always reliving the past.. or anticipating the future.. neither of which are real.. only the moment is real.. and how our heart feels in this very moment is what will create the potential future.. if you feel love and gratitude in this moment despite your circumstances your future will be full of things to love and feel gratitude for. You can choose this or dwell on negatives.. at which point you will draw the negative into your future.
Choose wisely.
Alan Watts had the most beautiful voice.
I hear Strength in his voice. Very powerful sound.
@@rickleitch1036 Yes, you're right.
I love how I always blunder into these videos when I need it the most.
It's not actually a blunder...it's the universe that guided to to what you need at that moment....Namaste
Yup
I've been told to Shut. Up. I needed that.
Hackers deliberately posted it on my feed. They’ve manipulated all the content. They are present in the comments section, what isn’t their bots, anyway.
@@jackallen6261 Indeed now truth being told :)
I was crying today in the morning, rating myself, my skills and how I think I wasn't good enough and this video just made me realize how it's all just in my head and not the 'reality'
Definitely needed to hear this, thank you for sharing!
Walk out the door and look around, you are more than enough Radzy, you are overqualified when it comes to "enough". I pray that you are delivered from all self-doubt and experience the love God wants you to experience, I pray you lay the burdens at his feet and have absolute faith that you are going to achieve everything you set your mind to and experience blessings on top. Keep going!!
@@johnnylongshlong3677 nice one
Much Love to You......
Of course you are good enouh and measure up- noone else can be a better YOU than YOU can be YOU. You were created to be you, not someone else. When you stop to think of it, everyone else is also trying to evaluate how they measure up. Relax- be confident in who you are, how you are, and pretty soon you will feel at ease no matter who you are around because you set aside the anxiety of "not measuring up", and you will find that life is sll about just being you. We all mostly allow self doubt to chain us down, but if we can come to,the understanding that this world was created for us to enjoy, and can learn to stop not enjoying it beczuse of self doubt , then we will start to know the joy of being who God created you to be without the constant worry that we aren't smarter, thinner, heavier, taller, wiser, better looking, not as good looking etc. We need to stop,being so,harsh on ourselves for not being what we think we should be I stead of what we actually are. Anyway- this is already too long, so God bless, and relax, you are just fine- and if others don't think so, then find new friends who do, and fill your life with positive influences who build up instead of tearing down. Those that don't accept us have artificial expectations of how people should be- and are constantly stressed about Mai training an artificial appearance th3mselves, in order to fit in to some certain group who Oddly enough feel,th3 same way they do, and so don't let their distorted view warp your view of who you are.
@johnny longshlong. You already missed the point when you invoke a God as a "he". It only shows you are not ready. There is no God in reality. Any God in your mind is purely a concept.
Please don't offer advice to mislead others when you are not ready yourself.
We shut up. We stop interior talks.
There is the real world as is. There is another world of symbols in our head.
Meditation is like music and dance: no ulterior motive, no future. Only enjoyment in eternal now.
Thanks Alan. 2 April 2023.🌹🌴🤪😎🍁🍍🌛🔥
Reality is a scary thing but once you work it out you can see beauty in little things that most people miss
Thank goodness.
One way that helps me see beauty in little things - literal beauty - is having a toy camera that prints out little tiny crude black and white pictures on thermal till roll. You never really know what you’ll get, what setting will produce what.
Two out of three times I get variations on a blob - but it might be an impressionistic mood, some exquisite detail or something that really does look as if a human sketched it. It often catches some completely different aspect than I anticipated.
Now I look at things and think, “I wonder what that looks like?”
Do you think this is a river flowing or a mud slide?
@@TheRaymanRipple life? a bit of both. I'd say more water flowing down a hill and hitting every rock and branch on the way down
Next time I get asked that casual question "whatcha been doin'?" I'm going to say I've been grooving with the eternal now.
If we taught this kind of meditational approach to life in schools, I wonder how more peaceful this world would be ?
Remember some ideologues say we need God back in schools. What we need is this.
Kids live in the NOW we adults dont.
We should have psych ed classes, just like we have phy ed classes. Classes focused on mental health and hygiene where we teach students meditation, and teach them about typical cognitive biases that can trip us up as well.
Most of the time we believe the "real world" is really about independency, employement & how to take good care of our bodies. But there is more to life than just how Allen Watts is explaining. Like Meditation is to improve the mind itself & there is no such thing as tomorrow. Thank you Allen Watts for giving us a big understanding.
Just read the Conversations With God books! For people to think God went silent 100's of years ago, never to speak to the human race again is as insane as it gets. To think Divine inspiration stopped 100's of years ago is also incredibly insane. We don't need old writings or books because God has spoken to us in our day and time.....of course......there are millions of people living now who feel they are qualified to speak for God on any subject. They are all around you.....and me.....if you want to know all about death then go quick and get the Conversation With God book titled HOME WITH GOD IN A LIFE THAT NEVER ENDS......you can thank me later.....unless YOU are one of those who knows what God does, when God does it, how God does it and with whom God does something. If you are one who knows what has been inspired by God and what has not......then just ignore my message here.....Much Love!
@@cheryledavis3580 Hmmm...🤔🤔🤔🤔. That's interesting that you put it all the information that was very understandable. Thanks for explaining.👩🎓👩🎓👩🎓👩🎓👩🎓
Forget trauma and be natural towards one a other.. one person at a time
If you could post a version of this without music, that would be great!
Absolutely.
There is nothing more beautiful than undecorated words of wisdom.
The music only distracts.
Idk why everyone feels they need to add a music score , it almost ruins the video.
@@MrOnelegnick The problem is that there are a lot of amateurs on TH-cam who think they're professionals and they don't know what they're doing. They think they're enhancing a video when really they're just butchering it. They should just keep things simple and allow the useful content to stand on its own.
@@Steve197201 Or maybe he just liked the video with music so put it on the internet. Lol
Shout out to the chad!!!! God bless the cult.
I agree totally. Being silent and still within.
HalleluYah!!!
Yes, absolutely! So many people just want to talk about the past - what they did yesterday, or last week. Or while walking in the countryside they talk at length about a book they've read. This is the opposite of coming alive to the here and now. To be alive to the here and now is moment-to-moment exhilarating, even in an empty room. And living in the here and now, one is never lonely.
We are way for the universe to know itself, Carl Sagan.
Life* perhaps we aren’t meant to comprehend and know it all!?! Let go of control! Embrace the good and do “your best!
Listening to his voice whatever he says simply gives me alot of hope and light to shine❤❤❤
Things are so fucked in this world and despite Watts being gone for so many decades his words still hold true. Listening to him gives me hope too and reminds me I have my own wisdom.
Hope is just a symbol. It's not reality 😂
Thats because you resonate where he's comming from.
😎🙏🎶💓”Ditti‼️”🌟👍🏼
This is soothing and enlightening. I love the music, serves to enhance what is being said.
I find the music very distracting. Would be better if it was much much lower in volume.
Thank you universe and God for this guidance and wisdom, support and encouragement ❤ thank you to this channel and thank you to all the viewers who are here in this "reality" :)
Thank you! Beautiful! The music was perfectly paired with the speech ❤
This is the deepest spiritual video on TH-cam right now if we get it ❤
not even close
I think he drank himself to death.
Probably only one feel the music touch my soul as I analyse deeply onto his words. Embrace the unknown your journey is a special one. Dance to the song of life Kings & Queens 💙
Alan Watts is great . He keeps coming out with more good stuff .
All the time
It's amazing how he keeps doing it.
Tomorrow Never Comes is such a powerful truth.
Thank you so much for all the videos you have created. With this beautiful music and Alan Watts teachings it's a bliss ✨✨✨🙏 it's beyond words.
Alan Watts has gotta be the greatest guy
Don't be hard on yourself, you are great too
Instead of showing love we want to judge the art and the work that was put behind this video. An I do understand we cant make everyone happy or please them. That why we must accept the fact that when there 2 or more people in a room there will always be a issue.
This is so true. Meditation brings me into the now, which is all there is. I sleep really well because I meditate just before falling asleep. I have no thoughts. You might try it. I remember in a philosophy class, the professor pointed to a desk and asked us what it was. We said, a desk. He said science says everything contains atoms. If you look under a microscope the atoms, supposedly in this desk, are too far apart and their distribution could never form this desk. Nothing is really here. This desk is a symbol we have made up.
The point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.
Not one single angle that can be arrayed against us, has been ommitted by this reality
Nice one, the music and the narrator are in harmony, i like it
Narrator is Alan Watts
Music is Alan Watts
Alan Watts is Alan Watts
I received this message at exactly the right time.
Always love AW. TY
Beautifully expressed!
Beautiful! ♥️
So Beautiful. Thank You.
❤ oh how this stimulated my mind. LoVe This.
Simply lovely 💖
Awesome! ❤🎉
Thank You ! Love his voice and philosiphy . .
For everyone who find the music distracting - I've listened to both versions now and prefer this one! 😅
That's cool. I personally prefer all lectures without music. It interrupts my own orchestra.
What a beautiful talk - lecture …….thank you …very pleasant and clear to look at …….🌞
Well said, young man!
Thank you for sharing.

Cool! I'm groovin on the here and now 🌞
str8////one should listen to this until memorized love it
That is so beautifully said Alan, thank you 😉
Thank you!
Great talk again. And share.
With the music behind this speech, it seems to imbed itself deeper.
With his reference to meditative practice (likening it to a dance or to making music) I just closed my eyes.
Rarely such speakers can get through correctly, but the eternal Alan Watts 🌟
Reading, hearing piano music and listening to his knowledge is hard to ingest at once though I must say! 😂
Love the video! The music thanks 😊
Thank You 🙏
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Truly Beautful.
Alan is amazing
He certainly was!
Watts of power in his speech.
@@SharkFishSF lmfao
@@SharkFishSF 1.21 gigawatts.
Beautiful ❤
So good!
It's true to say that in any week, if i just quietly get on with my life with minimum interraction, i'm happier.
Worst experiences were sitting around in pubs. It was constantly counting my money, batting off creepy men, not enjoying crap, popular music. 😅🌱
Just as we confuse money with actual wealth….I have actually been thinking about this concept a lot recently. Had a discussion at work about over working yourself and things attributed to “getting that green” as one dude put it. My job was pushing for overtime and working “mandatory” Saturdays. I had vacation planned( for like two years) and this popped up. I had to decline. Work was totally understanding…🤣🤣🤣🤣no they weren’t I got into a heated argument with my Supervisor. I’m a great employee. I work my 40. I’m on time and reliable. So I have no problem standing my ground on my deserved time off. As a couple of weeks go by I noticed everyone I work with slowly looking miserable. I asked a close working friend if he was ok. He said no. But my paycheck will be great… I thought to myself at what cost? I wasn’t struggling with bills. Got to spend time with my family. Make love to my wife Saturday mornings and was overall happy. True wealth.
It is not only "shut up", it's also "listen carefully to others" as the video says. You can be a silent guy, but being unable to understand anything, just because you don't care about others, but only about yourself.
Well done - music and visuals a great pairing with Watt's voice and pacing - well done and ty
For me meditation is the practice of just being!
Thanks for the video. I love listening to Alan Watts.
Glad you enjoyed it
Bravo
Thank you so much for sharing this and the way you have put it together in your way and style, with the music. That’s your expression and I honour it. Thank you 😊 I enjoyed this message
Thank you for your kind words. I am happy you are receptive to my interpretation of the way Alan Watts' words can be made more digestible for a larger audience.
@@inspireAS It is beautiful ☺️ and you have a beautiful soul just for putting this out there in the first place and sharing all these messages. You can’t know, from this physical perspective, what an amazing ripple effect your videos have on the world. Thank you again on behalf of everyone… and even the ones who aren’t in the vibration of being able to say thank you just yet… 🙏🏽
3:21 Meditation is the way in which we come to feel our basic inseparability from the while universe.
Thanks.
I know that " Motorcycleing" Definitely belongs on the short list along with meditation, playing music and dancing!
mowng the lawn...with my little Johnny Dear. :)
@Will Wilde That's the whole point: Total "Life or Death potential" invoke intense mental focus, which is simply exhilarating but combined with a small remembrance of fear, deep in the back of your mind,
Develops riding skills and intense " in the moment" awareness.
Combine all that in one Skull 💀
And the result we call: " FUN"!! 😆 🤣
Nice!
That was amazing. I am
Much appreciated❤
Excellent! Some superb and helpful analogies given!
It is forever, this moment, as it is still now. Forever is a long time coming, but let's not forget where forever has been! Now where do we go from here? Now is all therever will be, forever...
I’ve heard this many times and it never gets old
I like the video a lot.
Gracias
To God be the Glory 🙏🏾
All of a sudden there's me on my 450mxr ripping through the stream...BRAAPPPP 😄 JP I can't help but imagine
Great song
What song is it
Or as poet, Kenneth Patchen, wrote, “The laws of grammar rule the minds of men.”
Thank you Alan Watts for making a beautiful wisdom video to educate everyone! I have some thoughts about the "Meditation", which the physical movement could elevated in brain circulation and stimulated never, and speed up in regulating on transmissions. Therefore, it will be formation some positive thoughts, to be understand in reality of today's world....
Grooving with the eternal now
I like that one Alan. "Here" 🧘
Life is YOU. Do not add or minus anything. That's the enigma.
Some people around here are really gifted at not thinking at all. No meditation necessary.
