We know we don't know anything even ,what we may think.
"Its a common misconception of sentients to see reality as limited by their own senses"

Better? It basically means the same as the original comment
@@TheFreedomBay better.
quotation marks or hyphen to denote book title would be even better. and 's after author's name.
the only remaining question is who butchered what? you're afraid you're misquoting (butchering) macros?
thanks
Oh Mr. Alan Watts, God has spoken most eloquently through you. May your words touch all individualized souls of all time and may we evolve as a collective consciousness of highly evolved beings.
@mrswomanfacelel Ah yes, you are completely right! I should have said "The expression of God through the individualized soul of Alan Watts"
Thank you for catching that :)

Precisely the case that in a way there is a problem but in a way there is none
@@MichaelMunn-sd3eb maybe, maybe not. I would prefer to listen to people who walks the walk, not only talks the talk. Speaking of enlightenment is not the same as the experience of it
I loved reading your comment. Thanks.
When one discusses religion with people, they say they need a religion to hold on to, that is not the way to use a religion because if you use religion as something to hold onto, your religion is an expression of unfaith, faith is where you let go not hold on. When the cat falls off the tree, the cat relaxes. You see, soon the cat lands with a soft thud and doesn't get hurt, because she has faith
I am nothing, appearing as something, now enjoying both.
I like when the bells chime, and when I hear the giggling and coughing; sort of puts me in the room with them, in a sense... 50 some years ago when people interacted spontaneously because they were in the moment - no phone, buds, laptop, or I pad; just a room of life interacting with itself.
Are you sure they were in the moment? We romanticize the past due to our inability to be with what is🙏🏼 i would know..
@@StriveNotOne day your comment will be considered to be in the past though, have you ever tried to be entirely present in an ever fluctuating Universe. You'd have to be completely mummified to be Still. Life is born out of silence ❤
@@bunchofgrapesorafigto sin means to miss the mark, it’s an archery term. And you my friend have missed my point🙏🏼 enough said.
@@StriveNot stop talking nonsense. Your comment has nothing to do with reality. As Alan Watts quite rightly stated, ' From the bath tub to the bath tub we utter stuff of nonsense' hahaha 🤣 archery and sin lol what are you bumbling on about
I use to think the coughing was a sign that it all was live. Now
This is his most important talk in my view. I have listened to it so many times it does not get old. You did a wonderful job for visuals. Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it and I greatly apprechiate the kind words! 😄🙏
The visuals so exceptional that distract me from listening to the lecture. English is not my native language
jokes aside
i lovehow he is all over the place with info ❤
it helps keep me focused aaaand opens doors like crazy 🎉 mr watts ❤❤❤
great feeling to hear this ❤
Alan Watts is still alive ♥ Thank you for this an for the fact that there is no music in this video.
Death does not exist. Life is infinite.
Yes I find music extremely distracting ❤
Pinksteren. Uitstorting van de heilige geest.

Je bent geen leraar als er geen student is...
Nothing can harm a pure soul .
At times I find it a little difficult to follow Alan's logic, but when I do understand it just rips my mind to pieces.
I know that if portions confuse me I am not ready to understand it yet.
One day I will return and it will make sense.
Thank the cosmos for Alan Watts
Nice talk, nice pictures (most of them).
I'm fully enlightened. I don't care if others can't see this. I act correctly and think correctly. I'm an intelligent, thinking, compassionate person, who has empathy for his fellow humans. I practice kindness. I am nothing and completely anonymous. Bliss.
Spiritual gold!
Buddhism is finding peace and happiness.. this is what we seek the most in life!! Every religion has its own unique benefits..!
Monica Furlong wrote a deep searching biography of Alan Watts .
It's called Zen Effects .
It's worth buying . ❤
The day I felt out of myself
One day, I was doing an exercise of pretending to be someone else, like actors do when they’re preparing to interpret someone, because I had to write about a very controversial historical figure.
I was on the third day of this exercise. I had to feel what he felt and therefore think as he did. But on this third day, I forgot to turn off my phone, and I received a very unpleasant message that I had to reply to immediately.
However, I was so deeply immersed in the other person that I couldn’t return to myself right away, so something really, really weird happened: I left the character and did not return to my ‘regular’ self.
In less than a blink of an eye, I saw the world and my own existence in a very different way, much clearer than a second before.
An incredible sense of joy invaded my soul, and I remained in that state for three days. Meanwhile, I felt that many blocks that were the foundation of my blindness were dissolving; many of my small identities just vanished.
I have never felt anything so powerful in my life. I had a glimpse of what the great masters say, and now I want to feel that again, as I want to remain in that state.
such beautiful photography , thanks for the upload.
I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
All is ONE! Know this, FEEL this, BE this. The rest is just chatter for the mind (which is also the ONE appearing as chatter of course!)
My response to somebody that asks me if I am saved is, yes I am, and thank you for your concern about my soul.
I would caution you against such notions pride is the most insidious of sins and can worm it's way into our hearts
Church is a place for people to gather and help people who are lost spiritually find there way back to society
Church did the opposite for me. It's when I left the church where I found my personal relationship with The Christ.
If only.😔
Potentially.
But as most things its a two edged sword.
Then again as usual we humans tend to have a hard time understanding anything but absolutes so we end up discussing of something is bad or good endlessly never realizing both sides are both right and wrong in most all cases.
This is possible because its always relative.
In this case its relative to the intentions of the induviduals going to church.
nope
I think it's a place where people who are lost spiritually get fleeced.
I'm listening to Jesus right now, but he is trying to convince me that he does not exist.
How do you know it wasn’t just YOUR mind (thought) claiming that it is Jesus? From the Biblical scripture I have read, Jesus identified as the one essence or Holy Spirit, not a body/ temple or its thoughts.
Sweet 😔☯️🙏

It is not a good thing too be "Awakened" In this time period. It makes for more sadness for our world,but it is still better than being illusioned and being content.
"Everyone is a philosopher", we need more doers
I got Nothing ❤
Why not exist and try to be good to people who are you. Simply existing is pointless. Hell even
that's why people so scared of it)
What an evil way at looking at the world
if you have an opinion..you still don’t get it. And to those who do get it-it’s funny. What’s the point? All “points” are imaginary perspectives..which is debatable at every level. The point is there are no points :)
That's your point is it? Don't worry I can easily concede that in a way there is no reality and I definitely find the word consensus funny
Yup. If you get it, you get it. The key is to not try to grasp it, its not able to be understood by finite mind.
yall my folks in Alabama sent me a coffee that I used to drink in college before moving up north, it’s really good stuff. Great processing too, it’s called Lucky Goat, based in Tallahassee.
I think some points are in a superpositional state like a hyperdimensional crystal of unfoldingness
Such as love, heat, pressure, surrender, …

That's awesome Brother Jerry! Thank you 🙏
I need something like the Twitter filter words thing but for CZcams so I can filter specifically and basically exclusively "Alan Watts".

I know right? Good thing I’m not!
Wish he had bothered reading the catechism befored crossing the ocean to study foreign religions.
I enjoy very much listening to Alan Watts. But there are always these snippets of inherited religious dogma lurking around haha
There is a profound plot twist in all Religions, Zen, Buddhism, Hinduism included etc...
You are looking up to someone or something or some deity to give you the answers. They cannot.
You are the full Answer, You always have been. We are all One, timelessly just experiencing itself.
No need to go through all the fruitless nonsense and ego driven (here including that spiritual ego as well).
If you are willing to really dive deep inside yourself and find out who you are and surrender, you will understand what all the Masters and Religions really mean...
Terence McKenna once quoted a beautiful Van Morrison's song that talks about this:
"No guru, no method, no teacher,
Just you and I and Nature"
Fallen angel knowledge. Distraction and separation from Christ.
Then perhaps it strengths your faith of knowing so. Not a slam on your perspective at all. May your faith continue to be strengthened and you by it. 🕊️
@bluesteelthunder plenty of good information. Alot of people know alot of good things but it is not what Christ showed us. I've been saved by Yeshua so I personally have to stay aligned with that.
what do u mean don't be a saint?
There was plenty of sun today! 🌤

Listen to the talk… its self explanatory
Try listening to the video, it makes perfect sense
I had a smoothie for breakfast
I'm not a saint, a devil, a god, king or queen, a Buddha, a Shiva or anything, just an individual loser in the sea of sour milk. Everyone is under the same casino dome, perks or not. there's a heavy price to pay for any good or enjoyable "life" under the dome.
Hmmm, there’s not being a saint and there’s being an ass hole.
Zen master should be getting themselves up in the morning for one, getting rage full at the perceived mistakes of others only to realise it’s your own mistake but not own that mistake or apologise for being rage fully wrong. Sounds a lot like something else, pathological narcissism.
Nothing to teach sounds about right….
There is something inside you that you should let go. May you find peace.
lol wut?
I don't remember Watts EVER saying that he was trying to 'teach' anything. For that matter Buddah his self said: "these are only my opinions and you have your own. Don't follow me".
But why would you even listen to Watts in the first place?
What is the mistake you memtion? Without telling us, your critique is empty.
blah blah blah
Hahaha exactly.. does what he's saying really matter lol
Alan blew it at the end. The Zen Master doesn't know shit.
Thanks for the watt 💡 age.
