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.
Wish this man was still alive today. He is an amazing human being. His talks have been beautiful to listen to. I'm 51 and only cane across him in the past year. His talks should be played in every school.
True i listen to him daily, you cant imagine how much he helps me with my strugles
Don't forget him.
Wow I'm the same age and have just found him in the last couple myself. This is PROOF of The great awakening happening on earth. The lies are FINALLY being destroyed by the veil being torn. Thank you God for that
@@Spiranic89 The more I listen the more I learn. Some of these videos I have seen repeatedly but now they are starting to provide me understanding of who and what I am with this video especially. I really wish there was some sort of chat for this stuff sometimes.
Totally agree... Been listening to Watts for about 10yrs and still listen to him every single day, have quite a few of his books. It doesn't get old, his philosophies are timeless. For me, he's kind of immortal thanks to the work he's left behind for us. He's always giving me something to think about and reason to go each day being anxious/excited to see what happens next. Wouldn't want to have it any other way.
God I Love this man.
His voice soothes my soul
Thank you to anyone who makes videos with this man.
For as all our Humanity is challenged during this dark time of history .
It's those that shine a light on what it means to be Human that Guide us along our path.
Just the Universe Experiencing life Conscientiousness
Thank you Mr Watts.
Beautifully said ✨
I really wish videos like this would go viral instead of the ones that do 😏
♥️
In time, my friend.
Well... let's make them!!!
Why? :)
Spread and share pal copy and paste and send to one who will then to two then it will blow up in a chain reaction
Whoever you are who can't sleep tonight, is tired or sad, believe that there will be tomorrow that will light up your beautiful days.
You just need to endure a little more, a little more, and a little more ...
Thank you for being patient, thank you for being able to survive. And as you read this, promise yourself that you will be able to get through your toughest days in the future.
Promise to keep smiling, no matter how you are ...
You deserve to be happy :)
My opinion is, we all need someone that can explain it so clearly. He seemed to have that special gift, the gift of communication
I have been saying that. Ironically all he teaches I seen and felt on a few mushroom 🍄 trip few times in the mountains I seen and understand everything he is saying. He does say it in a beautiful way,powerful
What? -It's pretty much all bullying and brainwashing!!! - Hypocritically speaking? - Maybe, because I've been harmed and conditioned to do so, for the most part anyway; but my children and I are being forced to live in a perpetual state of emergency because the majority refuses to stop torturing people and ruining lives nor even acknowledge this ugly truth.
This is a very good lecture and as always Alan Watts brings it very well to the point. It’s all about our pattern of thinking and seeing life. When we focus only on fear or on bad happenings, we will automatically be fearful and become depressive. But if we put the focus of our attention on stillness and the beauty of the world there wouldn’t be anything troublesome in life.
Thank You For Teaching US. Even Though you are Gone WE still Learn From You!
Nicely put.
I believe that most of humanity is driven by their personal fears.
If I recognize this simple fact and consistently move further from my personal fears and courageously embrace consistent change in all forms the better off I am.
I can't serve The Universe and my fellows well if I am fearful.
Thanks for your comment.
I agree with part of your statement, and disagree with some of it: no matter what you do or how positive you are, there will be instances when life will bring blows that will leave you gasping for air.
OMGOSH D....SOOO PROFOUNDLY AND POWERFULLY SAID!
That was an amazing point you made 🙂
After unintentionally raising my kundalini nearly 4 years ago now...this now makes perfect sense to me...This man has helped me greatly
I always know these are going to be good... I look forward to these videos they are uplifting I've dealt with anxiety on my own for many years but these are more than just videos these are a tool to help deal and I've actually grown a bit from these videos... So thank you T and H!
The power to know this is already in all of us. If we just get silent once in a while. Life keeps us to busy but once you really get it not just intellectualy you will find real peace. Wich for me is the best way to be. More important than being happy, because when situations change you can just feel peace with in. Take care 😊
Have you read The Power Of Now ? This can really help you with your anxiety. I talk from experience!
Really powerful lessons in Alan Watts. I’ve also struggled with anxiety. Daily breath work (pranayama, ocean breathing, Wim hoff) and meditation has really helped me get thru the symptoms. I recommend trying this if you’re not already, and I hope it helps.
Please listen and read Eckhart Tolle too. You will see different world and suffering willbe gone
Alan Watts, you’re my hero...
Dear Alan...deep gratitude to the Wisdom you brought to this Earth. You certainly had brought Cosmic Wisdom of many Lives...
The wisdom has always been here. He just made it more aware to the rest of us.
My relatives used to go to Alan’s talks at Books In Review in LOS Angeles. This would have been in the 50s and 60s. They also had small home gatherings. Lots of cigarettes and booze. But they loved Alan.
This one of the best explanations about what is going on. I spent years listening to so many videos but this one is hands down on Point.
Alan Watts... listening to him makes me laugh with joy. I like his music.
You put my thoughts into words 💫❤️
His videos always wake me up. He is a wise great man with lots of wisdom and love. Peace n blessings
I love this dude ! He has awaken and enlightened me more than any human being ever has 💯💯 he speaks truth at a infinite dimensional impact to one's vessel !
I can't stop listening to him.. I learn alot ... Thank you.. love from 🇹🇹 Trinidad
Love listening to Alan Watts PERCEPTION of life's true meaning 😇 🌎 🌻
What a fantastic video. I feel Alan with his wealth of understanding of all the main cultures of the world past and present, is only scratching the surface. As per the Kybalion and Tao Te Ching everything in the universe is vibrational and frequencies only differ by degree. Everything has its' own recipe. After many possible incarnations we see the frequency patterns as images.
Perceptions never seemed this wonderful before making this realization. I could just imagine Alan chuckling to that one.🙂

Negative thoughts are equal to constantly conveniencing yourself to give up....
This help me get through a depression stage

Listen up humans,,allen your one of a kind than you for your presence,but to all the rest koodos for giving this poet props but just as well each and everyone of you are so much as beautiful as to understand and how his voice hits our hearts and all the beautiful things that make us laugh n cry,remembering our own paths listening to him confirm to most that we never wer crazy,just eccentric in our understanding,,so from me to yall,your beautiful.....
SUSTAINED BROTHER! I LOVE IT! THANKS LORD JESUS! GLORY TO GOD ALMIGHTY IN THE HIGHEST!
Namaste thankyou thankyou thankyou infinite love light blessings to all

"He is a wise man, who understands colours made off".
Thank you Mr. Allan Watts for your beautiful Magic ✨ presentation.
Grateful for Alan Watts.❤️❤️❤️⚡️⚡️⚡️
Ajahn Bram likes to give the "simile of the tadpole" - you do not realize what _wet_ is until there is no water, same for the self!
Wow 👏
Much appreciate these teachings. Thank you eternally
these talks makes living more peaceful, fun and i don't get wrapped up into the traps of other people.
I always feel better after me some Alan Watts... thank you.
Such an inspiration Inspire and exhale. Inhale and Exhale💝💝💝💝💝
to the 8 people that disliked this video. Who hurt you?...
Ya mum
and when we can determine what another perceives as "important," we can connect so much more deeply; our language, imagery, metaphors all adapt to what they will "see." Alan Watts has been my adult Mr. Rogers for 35 years. :)
This is what makes life worth living being able to find this connection and understanding. Thank you this is another way to view what Watts said that I hadn't seen before.
Thank you for making this... making me vibe in just being
7:10 molecular structure is not a discription of what something is made of, its a discription of what dance it is preforming
I think many are missing how profound this quote was and what it is referring to. Who and what we are never dies.
T&H always drops that fire for ya mind & soul
Def saved my life
The title to the the thumbnail its just fits to right for me, really appreciated

Uncle Alan made my life better. Allowed me to see in a lighter light.
Ah yes, the table is made of table. Just as it should be.
You define your own happiness and your own reality.
I don't know where I'd be without this man; I was so lost before I found him.
A true wordsmith
i hope you enjoy this lecture as well ua-cam.com/video/nTj71SgkAPA/v-deo.html
Most humans are never fully present in the now, because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now.
-Eckhart Tolle
A man far ahead of his time. i love listening to him.
Great job. All the best to you 🙏
I finally have some clarity in my life because of this man. I wish I could have met him.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
This entire video could be looked at as a beautiful metaphysical approch at attempting to explaining P-Branes (quantum physics)
ua-cam.com/video/nTj71SgkAPA/v-deo.html i hope you enjoy this lecture 🌍 on time
Powerful words💪🏾
So many times I felt like this was more speaking about how the neurotypical mind works, because I kept thinking about how many times just EVERYTHING just presses in for attention or I end up in adhd hell, but also fair because neurodivergents too often have issues with just random things demanding attention, not just "rocks and other boats".
Pretty much our radars can have everything showing up, or very specific things show up but not the things that should be.
Or something blipped but then immediately it was lost and forgotten about.
When we make the movie of this Amazing Man 💥💥💥💥💥👏🏽
ALAN WATTS SEEMS ALWAYS TO MAKE A COMPARISON TO GET YOU SPACED OUT TO THE PRESENT TENSE.
Wow!! That was an impressive nonsensical jumble of words. And the calming background music made it much more powerful and meaningful.
There is no you, just patterns you've fallen into.
Even that patterns are not there, all illusionary
Just like the ego ,
Some say ego death , there is no ego in the first place to die
The concept of this used to scare me so much. I don't fully understand yet but the fear is now gone.
He is so Clear 💝💝💝💝💝 love silk
My illusions and imaginations of inanimate objects, people in my life and self will listen hard to this advice and take heed to apply it to the nothings and the negative
Apply it to the positive. This is how we can miss the good as well.
This was incredible.
What a brilliant man
Amazing teacher, you are god bless! 😊 🙌 🙏 ❤️ Respect appreciate you.
Amazing. This is it. Period
Wow wow it's very inspiring
Perfect!!!
Thanks

Divine light that be me
It’s all about inner engineering
Control of inner being will make life happen the way you like
Watch Sadhguru video it will open your inner eyes
Who is the inner being ?
Whose inner engineering?
How can you control inner being who is beyond any control , life needs just to flow . No one can control life except life .
"All phenomena of life are musical"
Whoever is watching this video may your parents live 1000 years 🙏
Not my father for God sake, not him
@@Nathanclementnoah what he had done man? Feeling dark
@@himanshumishra7718 he done something bad to me
@@Nathanclementnoah man just hang in there everything would be good soon . He will pay for what he had done.karma always returns sooner or later.
Is this his best speech ever?
Very well done video!
Thanks for contributing at times with forced evolution through mental and emotional shifts. Awakenings we have regularly are often tough. We have them when we are prepared at our own time. R.I.P well that's not likely. Your energy is still here no doubt. ❤ ✌
Reflection is key. In everything that effects us emotionally. 🌏
THANK U
Thanku another great seer
Sooooo smooth speaaasch?💝💝💝

Thank you
Besides the minor seizure around 7min, great video
Good energy gang let’s fucking go
Yes yes yes!!!
Very good.

"Once you know the way broadly you see it in all things". From you to the whole cosmos and the mutual relationship from micro to macro, there are no separate events only an Apotheosis of everything. The Universe sends waves of change, your actions send waves of change. Your inaction sends waves of change. Like Alan watts puts it, the universe is a like Billiard board and the balls go toktoktoktoktok all over the place.
My "scanning system" is busted.
Everything gives me anxiety
Does it do it for you or are you doing it? Is your will to choose actual a choice or is it part of the simulator?
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
cool video..!!
TYVM!
No words to offer
LOVE...
Yeah you are right
Not all radar operates in all wavelengths of measurement probability either, IR,sound, X-ray, our bandwidth is just too small for the universe we exist but trying to grasp it all is a challenge. It’s hard to believe “everything is connected” as this would infringe on our ability to choose too.
Excellent
Not Alan, but i need to add due to this subject:
""Your only guarantee in this life, lasts long as your next heartbeat.""
Nice to be nice
Second? Omnipresent👳♂️🧙♂️🎸
I encourage all that are seeking the truth, or some kind of meaning in their lives to know the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, through Christ.
"Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him." (Psalm 34:8)
Christ is the only way to true freedom and salvation.
With love and kindness for the hurt, lonely, and troubled.
YES INDEEDY BROTHER! THANKS LORD JESUS! GLORY TO GOD ALMIGHTY IN THE HIGHEST!
I understand the point you think you are making here but Watts made his life about not confining himself to the limitations of abrahamaic religions and ideology and thought. We are so much more than that.
Blowed stat
PASS IT ON...
How does one know one has distorted thinking if one has distorted thinking?
we all have distorted thinking because we think
@@Creator-of-None I think ….therefore I distort (….& generalise …….& also delete lots of stuff too😉👍🙂)
Yes
Great video xxx
I drink and o listen and he is still so ???? My Friend💝💝💝😀😀
Every living body is something like the flame of a candle, this living thing that you're feeling like the gyroscope top it's your own life, because you can see very simply that you would not understand the experience that you call “voluntary action and decision“ being in control and being yourself unless in opposition to that there was something else, you couldn't realize self and control and will unless there was something other out of control and instead of will won't, it's the two together only that produces the sensation that you call having a personal identity, only there is a funny thing about human consciousness which has been worked out very carefully in “gestalt psychology“ which is that our attention is captured by the figure rather than the background by the relatively enclosed area rather than the diffuse area and by something moving rather than what is relatively still and to all those phenomena that in this way attract our attention we attribute a higher degree of reality than the ones we don't notice, that's only because for the moment those are more important to us consciousness you see is a radar that is scanning the environment to look out for trouble, just in the same way as a ship's radar is looking for rocks or other ships and the radar therefore does not notice the vast areas of space where there are no rocks no other ships so in the same way our eyes or rather the selective consciousness behind the eyes only pays attention to what we think is important and so in this way we have this uh rather myopic way of looking at things and we screen out from attention anything that is not immediately important to a scanning system based on sensing danger but quite obviously you as a complete individual are much more than the scanning system you are in relationships with the external world that on the whole are incredibly harmonious.
going back to this illustration of every living body is something like the flame of a candle the energies of life in the form of temperatura, light, air and food and so on are streaming through you all at this moment in the most magnificently harmonious way and your all of you far more beautiful than any candle flame just sitting in these chairs just going you Know.
only we are so used to it we say about that so what show me something interesting show me something new because it's a characteristic of consciousness that it ignores stimuli that are constant.
when anything is constant it says okay that's safe it's in the bag, need to pay attention to that anymore and therefore we eliminate systematically from our awareness all the gorgeous things that are going on all the time and instead only become focused on the things the troublesome things that might happen to upset it which is all right but we make too much of it and become we make so much of it that we identify our very selves i ego with the radar with the troubleshooter and that's only a tiny fragment of one's total being so that if you do become aware that you are not simply that scanning mechanism but you are your complete organism then very swiftly in turn as a consequence of that you become aware that your organism is not the way you think about it when you look at it from the standpoint of conscious attention from the standpoint of the ego from the standpoint of the ego your organism is uh your kind of vehicle your automobile in which you go around but from a physical point of view your organism is again like the candle flame or the whirlpool it is something which is a continuous patterning or activity of the whole cosmos the key idea here is pattern let's suppose i'm going to borrow a metaphor from buckminster Fuller suppose we have a rope and one section of this rope is made of manila hemp the next section is cotton the next section is silk the next section is nylon and so on now we tie a knot in this rope just an ordinary one over knot you find by putting your finger in the knot you can move it all the way down the rope now as this knot travels it's first of all made of manila hemp it's then made of cotton it's then made of silk it's then made of nylon and so on but the knot keeps going on that's the integrity of pattern the continuing pattern which is what you are because you might you know be for several years you might be a vegetarian and you might be a meat eater and uh so on and you know your constitution changes all the time but people's your friends still recognize you because you're still putting on the same show it's the same pattern that is the recognizable individual but we are trained in our language the very structure of the language we talk deceives us into misunderstanding this because when we see a pattern we ask what's it made of like you see a table is it made of wood or is it made of aluminum but then when you inquire into what is wood and how does wood differ from aluminum the only thing a scientist can tell you is the different patterns that is to say the different molecular structure of the two things and a molecular structure is not a description of what something is made of it is a description of what dance it is performing what motions what kind of a symphony this is because basically all phenomena of life are musical and uh gold differs from lead in exactly the same way that a waltz differs from a mazerka it's a different dance and there isn't anything that's dancing that is a deception we get into because we have two spots of speech in our grammar we have nouns and verbs and verbs are supposed to describe the activities of nouns and this is simply a convention of speech you could have a language with only verbs in it you don't need any nouns or you could also have a language with the nouns only and no verbs and it would perfectly adequately describe what's going on in the world so if you were used to speaking the part with a language that had one part of speech you could say just as much as we can with two and be a lot clearer only at first it would sound awkward but you'd soon get used to it and then when you got used to it it would be a matter of common sense that the patterning of the world is not some kind of stuff that's patterning you don't have to seek for a substance underlying the whole thing it's just patterning and we're all that you
Woah, much thanks!
