He is 100% right about everything in this lecture. The full experience of an emotion is the resolution of that emotion
which comes colorcalibrated to person to person.
Heck I’m suffering extreme depression and anxiety the moment, he says to go in to it. I’m already in to it. I want io escape this
One of the best Allen Watts lectures! I try to listen to him every day. What a treasure
all the lectures by Alan Watts should be given with this kind of video having no background music.
👍☺
Yes
Yes thank you!!!
So simply yet powerfully explained. Thank you Alan Watts and thanks for uploading his lecture
Listening to Alan watts can be addicting....i love listening to most of the topics food,spirituality ,death,life taoism ,reality, and nothingness.
Addicted to the thought or topic of ‘nothingness’. I think you are seeing a reflection
I always come back to this talk from him. One if the best ones
❤ Thanks 🙏
My pleasure! 🙂
Suffering is the best teacher 🧑🏫
He is the only one I know who gets somewhat close to truth, anyone else seemingly still enjoys the ride of ignorance. I feel alone with this profound understanding, the most intuitive thing for me is starving to death, that would fill me with joy, not responding to this environment of ignorance anymore and just fading
Yes... He is good. I especially like the way he explains complex issues in such a simple manner.
yeah he has a natural, simple mind. What would happen, if you have little to no barrier of expressing your natural thoughts and feeling you have ? Would be more interesting to experience than starving to death i guess

To me the sauna is, almost ironic,like a physical metaphor of what he describes as the oven. To me the message of this video. ‘ I’decide way before my body does in a way of how i will interpret the induced ‘pain/physical struggle’ as positive and most often even excitand ‘negatively usually’ in the first place.
Its actually changes everything now i can put these struggle puzzle pieces together with the right mindset. Or ‘right’, let i say ‘more freely and as desired’. I wonder of this is actually where i broke through and i get moving
Very glad I’ve found your channel , great stuff 😎👍
Glad you enjoy it!

Thanks for posting this, but why the incredibly loud sound at the end smack in the middle of the monk story?
Kids these days trying to be cool.
Thank you for your feedback. Will be more careful.
@@Inspirational.Libraryto teach you to appreciate all the moments there isn't anything distracting lol jk
Yeah that scared the hell outta me hahahaha
So this is what the Cenobites in Hellraiser/Hellbound Heart were teaching and exploring.
I'd like someone to explain how this applies to the infants vivisected alive in front of their mothers in Unit 731 in occupied Manchuria during the Second World War.
What is the meaning of the last zen story?
It goes on, who knows the last
Theoretically and intellectually I agree with Alan, however when you are in front of a drunken, violent guy that has decided to harm you, all theories about diving into or accepting the moment, are worth absolutely nothing. Your instincts of fight or flight will run over whatever intellectual theories you may cherish.
Give you another situation off the top of my head. You were born in North Corea, you have a wife and 5 kids, and you see them one by one dying of starvation, what theory from Buddha or whoever can save you from horrible suffering?
Put into that situation, anyone would wanna live because life is beautiful where we are at right now so we aren't prepared for the opposite this doesn't mean go and live reckless. This just means you can try and survive as long as you can not because you will never die but because life is beautiful where you are currently at. I hope this helps
Sad situations... Will remember you in my prayers. Everything is temporary... it will pass.
@@Inspirational.Library Please do not expend your precious time in prayers for me, instead use your prayers to beg that you never ever be in situations as I have been.
@@MrTetsukobusorry to hear that brother, I wish your suffering is temperoraly and you ascend higher ❤
@@kaelzvibey3878 I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and great compassion!
My soul melts under the fire of your great understanding of my comment. Ah! if all humans could have your level of understanding human race will be in a much deeper hell.
