  • “Speech extract from "Jesus: His Religion" by Alan Watts, courtesy of alanwatts.org”
    This summarised lecture by Alan Watts is from the Alan Watts Library at alanwatts.org.
    The image of Jesus is owned by the church traditions and authorities. He has been moulded to fit the interests of the church patriarchs for centuries, so much so that the prevailing image of Jesus is now so far removed from what he truly represented.
    Namely an energy from the future who came to earth to bring illumination and knowledge to humanity.
    The reason why the Jesus/Jeshua personality came to earth was to create an opening or doorway to a different state of consciousness.
    He wanted to set an example of the possibilities that are available to each human being. He wanted to hold up a mirror to human beings and remind them of their own divine origin and the dormant potentials they carried within.
    The potentials for peace, freedom and mastership over oneself.

      I've been there. Now I enjoy them all or only the popular ones so far. I'm trying to learn, read, watch as much as I can. One thing I feel in my soul to be true is that there is Good and Evil. And Evil can be helped to be good and good can be tricked into being evil. If I have free will than I'm able to come to my own conclusions. Religion teaches us to much to discuss here but one thing it teaches is to be kind to all living beings. To forgive, because God does. Intelligent humans from the beginning of time wrote down these prophecies.. I don't think we will ever call something we say a prophecy ever again lol. So I humble myself to all religions and respect people's beliefs because of those who went out of there way to bring this kind of education on how to live your life in peace. It is us who chose to use these ancient writings to divide us. But to dismiss such brilliance is a sin in itself.

    Thank you for sharing. I was raised Catholic but always questioned it’s teachings. I’ve never felt comfortable or felt like I belonged. I’ve read the Bible several times and still questioned it’s teachings. I then started reading and reading about different cultures and their beliefs. All concepts are similar yet different in different ways. I believe in a higher power of good and oneness. Blessings to all.

      I’m Also Catholic and have read the Bible and I’ve questioned all things since I was very young, and again in my teens and late teens and very much in my 20’s & 30’s, and even more in my 40’s thru now in my 60’s…. I’ve found that to be a very good thing, maybe we found different answers but my experiences are on the whole it has brought me closer to Christ and with a deeper understanding of why I carry and build a stronger faith in our Lord and Savior, and with the Blessed Virgin Mary…. Today we have Medjugorje and I admit I had to question this as well and 1-2 years later I find that I also believe the messages are from heaven and The Blessed Mother and are also true.
      As we have knocked on many doors and opened them is what God wants us to do, and not be a robotic tool that doesn’t think or come to him with that attitude or mindset
      As we’ve heard n known “that we must have the faith of a child”, which is easy enough yet very challenging at times, and we all get dry sometimes..
      I know most people then ask or say, that’s dumb or why should an adult have the Faith of a child…
      Very simple, cause like the change in your pocket, there’s 2 sides, Good n Evil. And for most people it’s just natural to become syndical with age, experiences and becoming desensitized due to life. So once your weak in faith wouldn’t someone make an easier target for the evil ones to destroy that faith you known makes sense in your heart n soul ?
      Again everyone one of us is different in all ways of our center and it’s decision making so we will come up with different answers and ideas and more questions
      Take care and don’t loose your faith in these most wicked of days

      My spirituality is in the eyes of a baby or a child’s wonder. To be in nature, surrounded by the life force. As removed as possible, from our deconstruction of life.

      Correct, I also felt that way. Each and every religion professes their god is the only god. So how many true gods are there? Is it like the Greek gods, one for water, one for land, another for the sky ! If there is a supreme being and maker of humanity, it's not going to be like a club of gods competing on which one gets the most love and admiration. What kind of supreme being would allow babies and children to be slaughtered as is being done right now in the middle east??

  • @cvillelister
    @cvillelister Před 7 měsíci +278

    Seek and ye shall find. Knock and the door shall be opened. I've been seeking for about 6 months because I had so many questions that I was afraid to ask due to my 47 years of Christian background, and I am completely blown away by all of the information I am learning as I continue to dig. I honestly feel that I am seeking in my heart and I am being shown the truth. All of this makes so much more sense and answers many of my questions compared to the answers I get from any religous follower that have more experience than myself or any preacher both local or all those on CZcams.
    Here are a few questions I had after "trying" to get through the first 5 books of the old testament without being confused for the 2nd time (the first time I tried to read , it scared the crap out of me, I put the book down and went back into my box.) Here I am, 7 years later trying again and I feel no different than I did back then:
    1.) How or why are we automatically born into sin? An innocent child coming out of the mother's womb with no sin is still considered a sinner? What makes this so?
    2.) Why was God favoring a certain group of people? Aren't we all God's children? Aren't we all created by God?
    3.) Why isn't the Rapture talked about in Revolations? I always thought it was, but it's not. Where did this come from?
    4.) Why in the New Testiment is there so much talk about food and sacrafice? There was so many references to sacraficing animals.
    5.) Why were so many people, including children murdered by God? The reasononing I heard preachers state was that God created life and it is a privlage to be alive, so he can do what he wants. Those children would have turned out to be awful, murdering, and corrupt people, so he did a good thing. I find this hard to believe. There is so much corruption now, so what's going on with that? Why aren't the current corrupt being destroyed by God now?
    6.) God spoke so much of being fruitful and multiplying yet suddenly we are to spend our entire life with one person, yet so many men had several wives. Most all men back then and even now can't go an entire day without thinking of sex at least once per day. If the purpose of sex is to pro-create bringing children into the world, why did God allow sex to feel so good? Why is an orgasim one of the best feelings a person can experience? Some may say that it's the devil making us feel like that, but I say it's a sensation that was given by God in our body and the devil had nothing to do with that feeling. They may also say that people wouldn't pro-create as much to populate if it didn't feel good, but most have this desire to start a family at some point in their lives and would do it regardless of the feeling in order to start a family. I don't like to work because it doesn't really make me feel good, but working gives me something I want (money), so I do it regardless, however sex feels so good and is a beautiful experience, so why is it looked upon as a sin if you aren't in a union with someone? Why would even thinking about a person sexually be considered audultry? Everyone for the most part has felt this way about someone else at some point in their life. Is this something created by the Romans to make us feel guilt and shame?
    I could go on and on with the questions, but my main questions that lead me down this road was "How do I pray properly" because so many of my prayers go unanswered. This is when I learned about the lost gospels that weren't accepted in to the biblical cannon. The others were "How was the bible created?" and "When was the bible first distributed?".
    When I realized that the Romans were the main people that "decided" on the scripters permitted, I was super confused and unsure of so much. The Romans were violent dictators. They killed for sport. They were huge sinners and did un-Godly things, yet Constantine decided he wanted to be a Christian so everything changed after that??? Hell, the first thing I think of when I hear the words Roman Catholic Priest is "child molester". How many have gone to prison for this? Many....how many Christian leaders have turned out to be scam artists, rapists, and sexual molesters?
    During my search on the history of the bilble, I learned about many other texts that were not accepted and wondered....why??? I wondered if any of these texts could have been edited, altered, or changed. Many may say, "of course not"., but I say "what if?"....is it possible??? Yes! This is likely why there are thousands of different denominations in Christainity. Why so many? Are we that far apart on what is right or wrong? I am now at the point where I just love Jesus and I love God as the creator. I believe that Jesus was awake and understood God and creation and was a messenger and taught us how to be in oneness with God and the way we should live and try to be, but I believe God is loving and wasn't as harsh as the old testiment says and is accepting of most all people. I don't know what will happen to the corrupt and evil people, but I feel I only need to keep myself happy, strive to be a good person, take care of my family, be fair, and most importantly, to LOVE all. I am so confused on this because I do attend church and I feel as though I don't belong and I don't want to raise my children in a belief that could be false as I believe I was through my family. I feel now like I did when my parents told me Santa wasn't real. I feel betrayed but I still have faith that God is everywhere and in all of us. Maybe I'm just crazy, but I have a feeling that when I die, I will still go up to be with God because God loves all of us more than we realize and God wants us to do the same. I feel it's really just that simple. Great video by the way!

      It is more beneficial than you can ever imagine. You can't imagine it helping because you refuse to hold yourself up to God's standard. I feel the guilt of not being good enough to reach His standard, but I feel the responsibility of trying to reach it anyway. I don't shy away from something because it is difficult like other people do. I don't pursue what is easy, I pursue what is worthy. Until you start staring into the abyss and recognizing your own failings, you'll never understand just how much it helps.

Davy Flett ( a drunken wretch through life,) Jesus is my Lord . His Holy Spirit is with me daily. I'm not a god I'm but a wretch. We'll all soon be in death.

      and whats even more funny to me that all religions are obviously written by men, just think about our primitive ways of living "eating, sleeping, reproducing" are literally all these religions talk about, in the so called after life.

    Greetings! I'm a septuagenarian who was raised in a secular household and encouraged to simply look around and study and make up my own mind about religion, and I did. I was a pilot in Vietnam and got shot down and stood in a rice paddy with bullets hitting the water around me and simply hoped they would miss. I've always considered all religions to be the product of fear of death and they belong somewhere between silliness and superstition. Best of luck to all of us and thanks for sharing the video!

    Raised a Christian all my life, forced into it since I was a baby, never really fully believed and didn’t know why. I tried to lie to myself I did but I couldn’t. I felt it was all about control, fear, and guilt rather than love, compassion, no judgmental. It’s hard to shake off but I feel closer to God (the source) now more than ever. I’m still growing spiritually (just started a months ago) but I feel more calm and at peace

      I’m 35, what helped me shake it off was realizing that I was holding on to others beliefs not mine, once I let go, I felt free, and the guilt, shame, and fear of going to “hell” or God punishing me for being me (how I was created). But what really helped was watching countless of Near death Experiences (90% said the exact same thing)

      Scripture tells us the noise of the Spirit was so loud that people outside the Upper Room heard it, too. A SOUND of Violence Roaring, with

You have already been pruned and purified by the message I have given you. Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me. “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned. But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted! When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my Father. “I have loved you even as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love. When you obey my commandments, you remain in my love, just as I obey my Father’s commandments and remain in his love. I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow! This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you. There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn’t confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me. You didn’t choose me. I chose you.

That you can’t repent from sin, so why believe it if it damns you. You need true faith, few are blessed with the faith without any difficulty in their lives, especially nowadays. But most of us have to see the hardships of this world and reach lows we never thought possible and see truths for what they are, to connect the dots and not fear the reality but embrace it for what it is, the lord Jesus is coming and it is very soon, sooner than we realize.

His profound teachings invite us to let go of our rigid perceptions, dive into the depths of existence, and dance with the ever-changing rhythms of the universe. Through his wisdom, we find liberation in accepting the impermanence of life and discovering the beauty in every moment.

      Of COURSE there are problems in this world that NEED to be solved. Dancing w/ the universe is not the solution. Jesus's life & teachings are, & his presence is. All people are interconnected, but it's not people or the rocks or trees that save people from themselves. Mankind very much needs saving from itself. As Jesus said that God would do, God sends the Holy Spirit of Truth in Jesus's name & as Jesus said, the Holy Spirit is a teacher. The Holy Spirit is very real & is *Amazing.* I have much direct experience w/ the Holy Spirit. People don't know what they're missing & what it's supposed to be like on Earth. God sends The Holy Spirit to those who truly repent of sin, ask God's forgiveness, & accept Jesus as Lord & savior. Many people who consider themselves to be followers of Jesus actually don't understand him & aren't following him. I feel sorry for anyone who has no idea that they have a soul & that it's the most important thing they'll ever have & that the most important question in life is where your soul will go after life on Earth. Do yourself a favor & read a red-letter, modern-language New Testament w/ Jesus's words in red. Focus on Jesus. Not on what a student or apostle of his taught. Focus on Jesus. People who are dismissive of him make a huge mistake & don't know what they're missing out on.

      Early Christians, after John wrote Revelation (into the second century AD), were not Catholic but attached still to what First century AD Christians (Jesus' followers and disciples) taught and believed. The straying had begun then, but not all strayed. Those who strayed became Catholics, those who apposed the straying slowly faded overall, even though some withstood the test of time at least according to their times. Catholics' attachment to Peter as a claim for an inheritance is unfounded in Gods word (more on this when anyone responds). And yes, God has USED people of the world to have his word or prophesies fulfilled, and those early "Catholics" were used in the same way. The Dead Sea Scrolls gave new light to True Christianity as Gods name was re-introduced into Gods word as it was suppose to: Gods name was never ever meant to have been replaced with "LORD" or just God in many places. The Dead Sea Scrolls gave better light to the Christian Scriptures as Jesus and some apostles quoted from the Hebrew Scriptures where Gods name is found so "LORD" and "God" and such titles have bee correctly replaced with Jehovah. Jesus is by far and away not like any other man mentioned in any other religious or spiritual book ever written. God did not send his only begotten son, the second most powerful and holy being in the universe, to be spat on, mocked, humiliated, imprisoned, beaten, tortured and killed, just so that it would be okay for everyone to have their own way of thinking spiritually. That is not how it works. God is a God of order and his word, The Bible, has been proved true and accurate time after time and again: only those who want and wish to do their own thing will believe what this shameless and uneducated video said. "The Great Tribulation" will without fail come soon enough, just take a look around the shameless and unholy world, Gods word comes to fulfillment every day. The time is short, as spoken in Revelation 12:7-12, but you still have time to beg God to help you find his True people before the end. I chose to live on a paradise Earth for ever and ever, as guaranteed by God himself--a paradise Earth everlasting.

Jesus presented himself as a paradox, just like the Cretan paradox of Epimenides. (All Cretans are liars because a Cretan told me so.)

      Alan watts you are wrong bro now I'm not saying that you are totally wrong with the Catholics adopting the idea of Christianity but the real truth is the devil has them to take it partially over to corrupt the masses to mislead the youth and the general people of the public becuz if you have that CZcams caption that reads that they made it all up then you are also mainly saying that they made up the whole existence of Jesus Christ and if you deny Jesus you are basically denying the the creator God which is Jesus father .and you are also denying the events that lead up to Jesus being born into a manger.becuz look at it like this from my perspective I'm talking about God the creator having the ability from simple train of thought in the back of Gods mind to think of Jesus being born into Marys womb and it can to be this is why in the bible God has rested the seventh day the bible says .so if God has this type of power to create his son in the virgin Mary then God is infinite he is inside of everything every living thing the trees he is embedded into the core of our DNA so to deny Jesus is to deny God himself .God is an extension of our selves.now I'm not saying that the Catholicsl churches didn't try and take over Christianity but some of Catholic people also have been misguided by the devil and all and what I mean by that is the devil can manipulate and deceive the people of the public .becuz he doesn't want the real truth to get out about the real holy bible .me Alan watts I'm going to ask you this very one question if that story is all made up then why would the virgin Mary lie about her pregnancy being born with jesus.when the CZcams content creator had wrote a caption that says: and I quote they made it all up .well if they have made it all up then the very existence of God the creator is also none existing and the big bang theory also never happen too as well .everything around you is created by no other then God.and time was ideally already though of and created by God the creator himself .to me in my opinion time and motion is the same thing that's just my opinion becuz we cannot see the wind but we know that the wind is there .and again we can't see God the creator but we know he is there .and sometimes the devil's people makes false doctrines to also throw off the people of the general public.thst is basically what u are saying in your caption or the CZcamsr is saying in the caption inside of the CZcams video they made it all up .the devil is mainly using the media when u break down the word m-e-d-i-a take that word and apply it to another word of the same origin m-e-d-i-t-a-t-e,just like the word m-e-t-a -v-e-r-se everything within the confinement spaces of the origin of those words has the same similarity of that word.and marker Zucker burge is the one who created the metaverse and he is the CEO of Facebook and all.let that sink in.

      What is love without God? God is love. The Bible is an historical document. This man opens up with lies. In Jesus day, they read and Jesus quoted from the Septuagint LXX of the Old Testament. Hebrew translated into Greek (the language of trade of the day). And we did not get our english Bible thanks to the Catholics. The Catholics read the Bible in Latin. KJV was translated in english from Latin in 1511 but that was not the first english Bible. Ultimately, that doesn't matter because we have over 45,000 manuscripts of the Bible it the original Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic. You can put the New Testament together alone based on the sermon notes of first century preachers such as Irenaeus, Justin Martyr and many more. More evidence on Scripture that your very existence. You can reject it but you have to be a deliberate simpleton to deny it. I preach Jesus Christ of Nazareth not denominations or the demonic roman catholic church.

      In Catholic theology, the concept of personhood is intricately tied to the understanding of the Trinity, where God exists as one essence in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. This divine unity underscores the relational nature of personhood, emphasizing the interconnectedness and mutual dependence within the Godhead. When individuals open themselves to Jesus, they not only enter into a transformative relationship with Him but also embrace a broader connection with everyone else in relationship with Jesus. This inclusive love mirrors the expansive nature of God's love, which extends to all humanity.
      This relational understanding extends to the concept of eternal life. In the Christian faith, eternal life is not merely a continuation of existence after death but rather a dynamic communion with God and others. It is a state of perfect union and intimacy with the Triune God and the entire community of believers. This eternal communion transcends time and space, offering a vision of everlasting joy, peace, and fulfillment in the presence of God. Thus, embracing the relational aspect of personhood opens the door to a profound understanding of eternal life as a boundless journey of love and communion.

    Thank you ❤ for posting this. Alan Watts is a master. I have recently experienced what he just described. In my early age, I was Catholic, then in my teens a born again Christian. I’ve gone through so much pain and suffering (health related) and have this tremendous curiosity of life, of it’s purpose and if there is a creator. 6 years ago I saw a sign about meditation at a cancer center at a clinic. That journey led me to science and eastern philosophy (Buddhism, Psychology, Evolutionary Psychology Neuroscience, Hindu, Daoism, Confucianism)). That’s where I ran into books by Alan Watts, Robert Wright and others. Videos like this are amazing. I have started to see without the lenses or tint of my human nature. I can see clearly like never before. I Can see what ppl call imperfections but now. I Can see the fleeting nature of feelings and understand why they arise. I Can identify the inner chatter in mind and recognize it’s not me but my Default Mode Network (part of the brain that plans, left hemisphere). Despite my health issues, I accept them as part of this beautiful and miraculous life. And its only the beginning. I know I sound crazy but I can see and definitely experience what Alan Watts is describing. I wish with all my heart you all do as well. I wish you all my success, health, love and no suffering. 🙏🏻 I’ll be sharing this wonderful video with others.

      @connorpayne2671, the ones who make you think that only your religion can free the human spirit, like "Jesus is the only way"... The way to where? Leading to what? These are the chains. Christians believe that the human spirit is somewhat sinful and needs to follow Jesus to become free from sin. True freedom would be to say: there's no sin. Therefore, there's no condemnation and no specific path. All paths are possible.

    I’m grateful to have understood this from a very young age. For all her faults, my mother managed to teach me the truth of this, and I took up the task to learn more about it. As a musician, I started performing for all kinds of churches, learning their procedures & most of their various teachings. This is why I am of all religions & none of them, and perfectly comfortable worshipping anywhere, with anyone, regardless of their beliefs. If there is an humanistic religion, surely I practice a credible version of it.

      WRONG. Early Christians, after John wrote Revelation (into the second century AD), were not Catholic but attached still to what First century AD Christians (Jesus' followers and disciples) taught and believed. The straying had begun then, but not all strayed. Those who strayed became Catholics, those who apposed the straying slowly faded overall, even though some withstood the test of time at least according to their times. Catholics' attachment to Peter as a claim for an inheritance is unfounded in Gods word (more on this when anyone responds). And yes, God has USED people of the world to have his word or prophesies fulfilled, and those early "Catholics" were used in the same way. The Dead Sea Scrolls gave new light to True Christianity as Gods name was re-introduced into Gods word as it was suppose to: Gods name was never ever meant to have been replaced with "LORD" or just God in many places. The Dead Sea Scrolls gave better light to the Christian Scriptures as Jesus and some apostles quoted from the Hebrew Scriptures where Gods name is found so "LORD" and "God" and such titles have bee correctly replaced with Jehovah. Jesus is by far and away not like any other man mentioned in any other religious or spiritual book ever written. God did not send his only begotten son, the second most powerful and holy being in the universe, to be spat on, mocked, humiliated, imprisoned, beaten, tortured and killed, just so that it would be okay for everyone to have their own way of thinking spiritually. That is not how it works. God is a God of order and his word, The Bible, has been proved true and accurate time after time and again: only those who want and wish to do their own thing will believe what this shameless and uneducated video said. "The Great Tribulation" will without fail come soon enough, just take a look around the shameless and unholy world, Gods word comes to fulfillment every day. The time is short, as spoken in Revelation 12:7-12, but you still have time to beg God to help you find his True people before the end. I chose to live on a paradise Earth for ever and ever, as guaranteed by God himself--a paradise Earth everlasting.
