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.
Life at 46 is so different. Alan is pivotal at this point in my life.
How did he change your life? Did you know that we are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
im 48 and im finally starting to understand his words and that we are not bound to this world.
@@jeff_forsythe you werent talking to me but i looked up falun dafa and he seems interesting
@@zandrokos No, you are not correct. We fell here from Heaven because of the black karma on our souls and must continue to reincarnate here until that karma is worn away by our suffering. Falun Dafa can help us do exactly that.
I love the metaphor of being born and then growing up being like starting to watch a sports match and taking it too seriously! 🙏
His knowledge and kindness to share it comes to rescue in times of great need. He had the courage and wisdom to go against what everyone else thought it was common sense, and put it to question. And with that we found that this existence is much more magical and is way more profound than what we thought, and you are doing it. From nothing, you produce something, isnt that amazing?
From nothing you produce something… yes, it reminds me of my high School experience and what happened afterwards!

💚
Speed is not a virtue is a much simpler way of putting it. Why do you call thinking courageous? Most people are asleep and a few are a little more awake.......................Falun Dafa
Alan, it's not over because you just told us about the ages of every age. Thank you. Bless you
and thank you to the video author of every youtube video on Alan watts for repackaging the content and adding the usual lifestyle footage fluff for their own for monetization agenda
I wish I could only understand Alan Watts better than I do. I think he is highly intelligent and was capable of leading people to a more understandable life. I only wish I knew of him early on in life. Now I'm at my end of life and feel I have missed out on so much.
What is it your not understanding ?
I believe that we come into this life with a main task we set out to achieve. It doesn't have to be anything monumental. It's just something that we as a soul want to experience. As long as you are alive, you can still attain that goal.
No Regrets!! You are right there where you meant to be. Next Gens are prepared trough feedbackloop and they Spread the new and natural Mindset.
If you feel you missed out on so much, then you're not living. I have no time, just constantly changing while watching the world change with it.
Become timeless and you will see you have all the time in the world. Attention not needed 😂
@@sircuddlecakezhow might one find their task in life?
Time is the greatest killer of them all!
These always leave me feeling at joy with the eternal now
Time is a distance and distance is a space.
Well said. Made my wheels spin.
A measure of distance. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
We are here to learn to love and treat everyone the way we want to be treated. We are all connected spiritually. Watch some near death experiences they will really turn your mind around and take some meditation (mindfulness) courses. They are offered through most hospitals or ymca’s. Or just look up Jon Kabat Zinn, he helped a lot of people in chronic pain and with PTSD etc.
This.
thank you TH for continuing to make these videos. i love all of them
From Brazil 🇧🇷, thanks for the video!
Thanks Allan Watts for so much wisdom!!! ❤❤
Much love and appreciation for your work🎉🎉🎉 I am forever grateful for his teachings❤❤❤
Reminds me of Dr. Joe Dispenza’s speaking of ‘the void’ and his meditations which help you enter the void
Love It
Presence Is Life
Gratefull
You can always choose wherever you are. but you get crazy by not completing your chooses, so go all in till you find the truth because it will make you feel peacefull for a moment, but when that time is over you will need to find another truth and another answer to come up with to make you feel satisfied for the moment, everything is a bout finding moments to take time for life by completing goals and you need to find these goals all the time so you dont get bored by having to much time.
We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
I love you Alan Watts. Thank you again. 🤍☯️
In order to play and survive in the game of life we have to take on identities and abide by rules, otherwise we will die or lose the game.
Our parents arm us with the identity and tools we need to survive.
The trouble in this world today is that mankind has cast out the Divine, Falun Dafa is the Way.
I live every day like its my last because we aren't guaranteed tomorrow that being said tomorrow cant be ignored either because there are severe consequences for ignorance and flippant behavior
How? How does one live like it's their last? Never understood this 🤷♀️🙂
I don't believe it... You can either live as if it's your last day, which inherently means you do what you want... Consequences be damned.
Or you worry about tommorow and consequences, and never live, simply existing.
I'm curious what it is like to drive a motorcycle at 160 over a cliff... But, I'm here, alive... And yet, not living the imagined possibility
The experience of the eternal present moment of bliss and wonder. To see the world again with eyes like being born again is a state of being beyond all description 🙏❤️
As long as we exist here, time is relevant. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
@@jeff_forsythe If none of it was relevant, then we wouldn’t be able to experience it…
I have had a good life not perfect but good and if i die tomorrow i can be at peace knowing i tried the best i could with what i was given
We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
Great music in the background. Wish I knew the name of it.
especially in the middle, the one with the violin
“I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.”
― Alan Watts
We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
Past and future are simple thoughts not life
The clock ticking is really irritating
It wasn't until you brought it to my attention. Now it's really getting on my nerves. 😂😂😂😂😂
It's only a tiny bit of "TIME". :)
@@jewel2022now 😁
Time is simply a measure of distance. Did you know that we are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
@@jeff_forsythe Never heard of Falun Dafa but I agree with everything else that you posted.
The present is the gift we have.
We have no free will at all. You know what I think the truth is? And I do think there is an objective truth to reality. We live in a super deterministic universe. Everything has been pre-determined. We have no free will. We are all watching what is happening.
You had the free will to write your comment, you didnt have to.
No, we most certainly have free will, God did not create a bunch robots. We have lost our way and become gluttons, very sad. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
Agree it’s just cause and effect causes have causes have causes. Once you hit the white ball on a snooker table ( equivalent to big bang) the balls will scatter how ever they will. Their path is set from the que strike just like all atoms are just following cause an effect from big bang. The future is a set as the past.
Quantum physics is disproving this
We can change,what would have been unhappy consequences by having the right thoughts.
If they made 5 years as 1 year we would all be younger ..🥳
Muito obrigada.
Reflexão tão importante!
7:15 I love your channel and your audience, I'm gonna comment on ALL your videos for years until I reach your level of subscribers.
Part of my business is transmitting Reiki energy distance It’s just one once you understand these metaphysical principles don’t make sense to you
It is just a concept, a little bubble in our heads. No way can we predict or control all the variables out there, of which, we are just atoms.
No, we all have immortal souls. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
Retired I’m living with life not time clocks
Interesting...
Because my heart has that feeling
With us there were two hearts. You have the Left one, which really is the right choice. Keep it that way. Keep yours. My heart is dead and you know it's true. I'm okay with that.
Thanks
You were mistaken
I have never worn a watch , I beat to my own drum..or rythm .💥
🖤
That anger is the only truth in me. I'm keeping that. YALL HOLD ON TO YOUR LOVE. IF IT'S EVEN. I AM NOT EVEN. CAUTION.
8:00 visual space/time.
Hello
If everything is 'now ' or the present moment, then how we get intutions in dreams about the incidents happening in our future
It is not the future. It is an other now.
@@user-mz5yu3gg4l bhahaha love the mental gymnastics!
But why did I say bless you
Because you been taught to say...
If the Future is a hoax then why does it happen separately from past
It doesn't🎉
Time exists, there are many dimensions and time is different in each. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
I think it’s time for me to go to bed.
Nonsense. Time exists in this dimension.
Time, meaning a measure of intervals between events.
Or the measure of events between events.
I had that thought 20 thoughts ago.
Yes, time is a measure of distance. He should be saying that speed is not a virtue, in my opinion. . We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
I hope you find a different opinion in the living room, a clock and retiring. I hope you can do that and not have to worry about time.

People usually listen more when one whispers, just a hint. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
Love your vids but I wish you wouldn't embed subtitles. YT has built-in closed captioning for those that want to turn it on.
I disagree. I tried the automatically generated subs on this video first and it was very distracting how out of sync they were (not to mention there are always mistakes in them) - so I was really happy to find that there were actually perfectly timed subtitles in the video itself. Good subtitles are really helpful for non-native speakers...
Bills still need to be paid 😭
How to avoid bills is the question ?
I owe Bill nothing. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
Time and money, two and one of the same! Neither exists! Stop living their LIES!🧐🤔
✨🫂💚✨
Hallelujah!!! I’m the favorite, $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and also support the work of God and the church.
Oh really? Tell me more! Always interested in hearing stories of successes.
Enthralled by tales of triumph, I share with you the marvels Ana Graciela Blackwelder has wrought in my life. Through her expertise, I have ascended to heights previously unattainable. With earnings from her counsel, I have secured a new abode and vehicle on American soil, and most profoundly, I have financed my son’s essential surgery. Praise be to God, shalom indeed.
Verily, the name Ana Graciela Blackwelder resonates with success.
I know Ana Graciela Blackwelder, and I have also had success. I, too, have tasted the fruits of her wisdom.
Indeed! I Witnessed the transformations of those who, armed with naught but determination, have emerged victorious under the tutelage of Ana Graciela Blackwelder.
"One of the greatest hoaxes is the future."- "This is a game." "You have a role." THIS IS YOUR LIFE. You need shelter. You need food. This is not a game, its your life. You have a role, okay, what do you enjoy, feelings matter, its not a con job, feeling is how you know that punching you in the face, hurts. Then it makes you angry. Just deny that anger cause its not real. Future is a hoax, so don't buy that food you need tomorrow that you learned from your past, that you'll need it, instead shame people for working a job to buy food and shelter and apparently in this man forsaken world, you have to buy or breed your women to do what they are told. I hate time too, they worked me to death and its needed for farming for food, but hey, you ever try farming in the snow...
i dont think alan watts was implying we should disregard the future and become an unstrategic animal. our ability to be strategic and use our understanding of time seperates us from other animals who don't keep track of time. thats one of the reasons we are the most successful at survival. but our excessive emphasis on time makes us miserable. based on what ive heard from alan watts, he seems to have a problem with the aspect of culture where we are taught to delay gratification for our entire life. school prepares you for the work, work prepares you for retirement, and by the time you are retired, you don't feel as healthy cause you are old, so you cant enjoy retirement. and because of that, the reward you were taught to work so hard for pretty much never comes, but we spend our whole lives being serious and stressed out so one day the reward will come. so its true. the future is a hoax. if you want to work hard towards something and plan into the future because its worth it for yourself and others, good. hard work and planning often benefits us all. but if you want to work hard towards something and plan in order to obtain something to fill the void, that isnt going to work. my conclusion is we should live for today as much as we can, not for a hypothetical reward in the distant future
Ooh
This planet is a very serious place. We are here to seek the Divine and to return home to Heaven, Falun Dafa is the Way.
John 14: 6 - _"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me"_ - Jesus
John 8:31 - _“...If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”_ - Jesus
John 3:16-17 - _"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved."_ - Jesus
Thanks for the putrid intrusive 'music' ... and clocks ticking (FFS!)
so HOT 🎉
Pathetic, of course time is a thing, shit moves on , day turns to night, the seaaons change and people and animals get older, so if their is no such thing as time then stand still and see how that works out for you, ridiculous
