Can you tell me what music this is in the background of Alan's talk in this video?
Don't bother. The site is bs.
@@11mauck11It's Yanni.
Sure is...guy can talk lots of shit...if he believes it he's giving himself lots of self importance.
I did die 40 minutes after suffering a cardiac arrest and I had the most amazing experience,when I came round I told the paramedics I know I’ve just died ,it freaked them out
If there is no life after death, then those who believed there would be life after death will never known they were wrong, and those who didn't believe there would be life after death will never know they were right.
I'm a deep thinker, but this poignant thought has never entered my head before. Absolutely true though.
Maybe when their lights went out they would have a glimpse of the truth.
Yep!!
Ha ha.... I've been saying something like this for decades now...with ONE caveat..... I _know_ what will happen when I exhale my last breath....I'll be in the same place I was before I was born.
Complete, total eternal rest & bliss. I'll be sad though.... I wanna see what becomes of my daughter & her daughters..... I'll never know, that is the sad truth of death. Never to know what becomes of the future.
I just can't fathom that Jebus will be there after saying.... _Ah ha Gotcha!_
There has to be something else after this. There’s too much unexplained stuff happens to lining people- seeing a ghost for example. I’ve seen one. Many people have. Poltergeists that move things etc. there’s SO much that we have no clue about.
As the Roman philosopher Lucretius said, "the thought of not existing after my death gives me no more trepidation than the fact that I did not exist before I was born".
How does he know he didn't exist before he was born? Because he doesn't remember? I guess because he didn't remember a dream then he never dreamed right? Or even acknowledge that he's ever slept because he doesn't remember existing while sleeping. He could never have been 2 years old because he doesn't have a memory to prove it. Consciousness, is the entire point of the universe. Consciousness is why everything down to the smallest of chemical reactions happened perfectly for us to be here right now. One degree off and nothing would be here. The big bang banged into existence at the perfect rate of speed. Too fast and nothing would have came together, to slow and it all would have collapsed in on itself. Life would never emerge from lifeless rocks and gases if not for consciousness. If we were to all remember what tf life is, the universe is, then the point of now would be lost. A meteor hitting earth tomorrow doesnt make us or the universe meaningless. It makes the point of life more meaningful. If the big bang is indeed the beginning of this universe, and all matter, all atoms were contained in a singularity the size of a subatomic particle, that means, you and I, were there at the beginning of it all. Consciousness, and the bodies we inhabit were contained in a microscopic point. I don't remember that either. I don't remember dreaming last night although everyone dreams every night. I don't remember anything at 2 years old. I don't remember a past life even though countless kids in earth do. I'm not scared of death. Whether it's close to what I know to be the obvious truth or if it were "not existing." I wouldnt exist to contemplate not existing anymore. As ridiculous as that notion is. You were there in the beginning, you'll be there long after earth is gone. Were the universe experiencing itself. Ourself.
@@MosDefnIT88You totally get it wrong way around ^^
Look up "anthropic principle", You've been proven wrong 67 years ago x)
Markus Twainius 😂
How will that pay my bills
@@MosDefnIT88for existing he has existed, he exists now, and will forever be existing. For the breath we still breathe in and out we are not breathing by ourselves but by existing we don’t control ourselves “our body’s” if we could then we would never fell pain or even die. But what ever has been created the breath of life brings everything into existence. So without the breath there no existing no consciousness of nothing.. it goes hand in hand by the saying “which came first.. time or thought? Whelp if you think it’s time no, it was never time.. what about thought? No.. because the “words” came second.. you have to come up with the words to produce any time or thought.. but before you can come up with words you have to be breathing before anything.
My brother died 5 years ago ..his memory is fading...what was important is that he experienced life..that was his meaning..
🥺 sorry to hear that. May he RIP 🙏
So true... life is nice feeling and wonderful.
My brother passed 19 years ago and his memory it's not fading one iota as a matter of fact, I'm remembering more and more about him
@@tim59ism _The brain doesn't produce consciousness_
Gotta love the internet for the amazing & astounding lack of evidence containing commentaries.
About 99.9% of all things that have ever lived on planet earth are extinct. That means, the .1% left, is everything we can see today...all plants, animals, see creatures...anything that utilizes the energy of the sun.
That's as astounding & mind boggling amount of death planet earth has seen.
Once you die, that's it. There's no seeing anyone or anything again.
All the more reason to celebrate & enjoy the life we have before us....and to keep those dear to us deep in our memories....as fading as they may be.
@@jasguy2715 Same here. My brother passed in 1995 from a drunk driver. My memories of him are alive and well.
Instead of thinking of us as a "body with a soul" change your perspective and you'll see we are "spirits or souls with bodies". We're occupying our current form and when it wears out, onto another vessel. At least that's my hope.
Just remember to put your soul in the recycling bin when your done with life. ♻️
My God that sounds exhausting.
I think that scares me more than anything. Cause that would mean, we will HAVE to be here in the future, experiencing everything that happens, until the end of humankind. And then one? We transfer into AI robots scaling the universe for other life forms? Then what, drift until the universe expands to a point of not seeing another star, then watching all the stars die one by one, after that watching black holes die, til all the atoms fizzle out amd all that's left is radiation? What if the next vessel is in a third world country plagued by famine and more suffering? Then the next is worse yet? If we die and just go into another new vessel, it seems as if we will jist have to keep experiencing different levels of life, and there's an absolute certainty some will be WAY worse off and some will be way better off.. and it WILL end at some point.. I wouldn't want to be in the generation of mankind that has to find a way to get off world or be engulfed by the sun when it enters its red giant stage.. also if we are just a spiritual entity hopping to new vessels, maybe we are just ONE being, experiencing ALL of human life, one at a time, until ALL human life has been lived and extinguished, then at the end maybe we merge into the one Tru spirit form that we are. A god? A star? Mere energy without the ability to experience anymore? The idea of death, afterlife, nonexistence, reincarnation, or the like. All are terrifying. All are just as beautiful at the same time..
Define what you mean by "spirits or souls".
I think we just go to consciousness in a different reality where we didn’t die until we ascended
There’s a consciousness that keeps going........my dad passed away about 10 years ago. ...... I talk to him every day.... and I get answers........so many things happen around me daily........there’s more to life after “ death. “ than he indicates. ❤❤❤❤
You you suffer from trauma? Or fine living in a universe devoid of your loved? Mmm at least he ain't got to be a slave here.

Great. My father has given no sign, I used to for years try to communicate somehow. Absolutely nothing.
@@wascopI Not even the slightest dream that felt potentially real?
I come back to this every time
I have anxiety about passing, he explains it in such a calming way
I'm terrified
It's entirely natural to fear death. It's our survival instinct. Everyone is anxious about it.
@@michaeladvs224it is quite scary I just came back to the video today and it really does help, really think about everything he says about what we are and how we grow, it all makes sense and it sounds peaceful although I know that’s not gonna entirely help because I’ve been on this journey of fearing death but I know that eventually I will overcome it just like you will and everyone else going trough what we are and worrying isn’t gonna change the outcome so go out and smell the flowers and enjoy the sunshine :)
@@michaeladvs224the fact that so many people share this fear I feel like just reinforces the main message in this video as in we are all one sharing experiences and things
@Otree859 except the one's who commit suicide, light themselves on fire, suicide by cop. They don't seem to fear death.unless they were thinking they weren't going to die.
My uncle just passed today at 6:20 Apr 17 2024. Death is something that will come to us all so the best thing to do is to not fear it but embrace it. God bless
Yes
I am sorry for your loss.
Science is saying now that the universe is intelligent.......a collective consciousness that we return to after physical death.......🥰🥰🥰🥰
Deepest condolences for your loss
@lindamclean8809 love this. Truly fascinating
As a retired Hospice RN, I have been honored to see where my Pt's went, and it is a beautiful place, it smell's so clean, and it is bright,
🙏
May I ask how you saw where they went? Did you have a near death experience yourself?
Thank you, Mark Watts for following your father around and taping his lectures
A prolific author and speaker, Alan Watts was one of the first to interpret Eastern wisdom for a Western audience. Born outside London in 1915, he discovered the nearby Buddhist Lodge at a young age. After moving to the United States in 1938, Alan became an Episcopal priest for a time, and then relocated to Millbrook, New York, where he wrote his pivotal book
What are the odds of me and you being here alive on this planet.. it’s crazy ..
we should all feel very privileged..
For what? This place is obviously some kinda hell. A trap. A huge form of slavery…

I just lost my grandpa, and thank you Allan watts for being a beacon of light in the darkest of times.
Lol I'm pretty sure Alan is dead
Feel mentally better after listening to this. Thanks a million
We are the way the universe gets to look at itself. Take a good luck and enjoy it.
Just like Carl Sagan said. Conscienceness is the way of the Universe to know itself.....or something like that. Written in May 2024.
"Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world...."
I hope luck was a pun.
Does anyone else have a voice like this anymore? It's almost like our vocal chords have changed. He is like the wise sage grandpa who you gather around to listen to his stories for hours on end
Accents....
I believe it's a combination of older microphones and what's known as a transatlantic accent. It was common back in the day, especially amoungst actors and media. Check it out youl hear his accent in it.
@@JUNGBODHISATTVA so then you would say this accent is disappearing ?
@@renegadezen7841 Yes. It was mainly created in the first place so the tone of a Human voice would be able to be picked up from old microphone technology, which would amplify a higher-pitched voice much better than a lower one. That's also why a lot of them sound like they're talking from the top of their throats. Microphones are so good now that we don't need to speak a certain way for our words to be heard. Hope that helped.
@@StrangeScaryNewEnglandhis accent is more Received Pronunciation. The trans Atlantic accent was created by Americans.
People fear death as they feared birth. Here you are!!! And....with birth comes the concrete sentence of death. Stop fearing death and a long life!!. Live a memorable life and have fun. We all will die. Some choose the gamble of quantity of years versus the quality of years . Wanna see your grandkids with a colostomy bag, sitting in a wheelchair?? Not me!!!
Amen
Beautiful answer
I hate kids. I just live for me.
Clearly thoughts of a young man, Mitchell? Hang around a few years and see how you feel. Maybe life plays out that that is the only way you can see your granddkids - if you are lucky enough to have them. I wish I could post a photo of my Dad holding his Grandson for the first time. He was not disabled btw but the expression on his face speaks volumes! Who among us would you deny that pleasure?
I didn't fear birth - who does, I had no memory of it. I feared death as a child, as an adult it will happen when it happens, I hope it won't be in prolonged pain but I've experienced that in life and didn't know when it would end hoping one or the other. As I get older my death will be quicker and I won't fight it as well as my strength is less - that is how we all go - if we are lucky. What is is.
It only happens once, but always. There is no time, you are happening now, everyone is happening now, only once❤
I don't talk about this a lot, but in these days, I will.Ive have seen death 4 times, and the last time I experienced death.I was stabbed 3 times ,one right above my heart.I was ready to go and I wasn't in shock.During my surgery I saw the light in a distant.I couldn't walk or run like i wanted to.Long story short,when I woke up I was in serious pain.But I'll never forget that light.God is my reason, my life, my faith, and my destiny.
You're brain was in shutdown, surely god would have known you would survive and not shown you the light?
BRO, 4 times? the las one being stabbed? who are you and what are ya doing....
If we go somewhere. That somewhere would be the place we came from to get here to earth.
Says who?
My dads balls then😂 great least he did one for me
@@tylerrobibero ...he literally just wrote it above your comment.

Loved it!
Truly the most amazing mind in history. Alan Watts had the power to put into simple words extremely complex things.
You have him highly overrated.
@@yankee2666 watts only provides a lubricant if thats what you need. a banana peel will provide the same treatment.
@@yankee2666nah he’s right
I''ve never heard him talk about a single complex thing. Come on, it's all basic stuff about life.
You've been here before... You will come back... You are the observer.
All is a reflection of consciousness that never dies, when you look out and see this reflected consciousness, this is One and the same within everything.
You are as much the universe as that is of you, pure reflected consciousness.
Meaningless word salad..
@@cnault3244 To each their own.....
So we can't leave this corrupt madhouse shithole - f**ck that.
I could listen to him for hours!!! I’ll be honest, I couldn’t take all that in, and I’m pretty intelligent, but will watch it until I do! Fascinating!!!
Exactly that for me too ! He says too many simple things that I have never looked into but which make sense. He has a non-duality approach which I believe is the beginning of truth
What is your IQ?
As living humans I believe we no nothing about what really happens after we die but I do believe we go on somehow
But if we "no nothing about what really happens after we die" doesn't that mean we might end up "know-where" .....?
@@rogerbianchini2982Larry doesn’t “no” 😂the answer to that question 😂
The impression I get from the video is the Buddhist concept that the ego is an illusion of our true being, so when the ego dies, the only thing lost is the illusion. I like his observation that if we formed out of nothing when we were born, it can happen again. Certainly thought provoking.
From death comes life, and we all go back to the eternal unity of universal consciousness.
I call it the “dual existence” - here on this beautiful planet called Earth, where we are trying to survive as long as possible, and there “on the other side” as an immaterial, timeless spiritual being with heightened consciousness, essentially our main existence.
And then at some point our soul has to go on the next adventure and slip back into a body and withstand all adversities and strokes of fate...
Perhaps that is true also maybe some of us don't come back we graduated so to speak depending on circumstances interesting
In other words a perpetual cycle of hell - I hope you are wrong.
This is one of the most profound things I have ever listened to. I will be thinking about it all day. I feel a sadness and peace, and I can barely distinguish the two.
"I feel a sadness and a peace, and I barely can distinguish the two," - that line is damn POETIC! I hope you'll keep that line and write some sort of poetry with it, Whoever you Are!
I wonder if it is comparable to emerging from a dream when you die into another reality. 🤔
life is but a dream on the way to death and when we die the soul is reborn.
@@robertwalker4930that is a claim.
"Death is nothing to us. When we exist, death is not; and when death exists, we are not. All sensation and consciousness ends with death and therefore in death there is neither pleasure nor pain. The fear of death arises from the belief that in death, there is awareness." Epicurus 341-270 BCE
We come from the stars and when we die we return to the stars
"Everybody is a Star " Sly and The Family Stone '69
Sounds good to those that want to believe that we are just a collection of particles. But it's not so, there's so much more.
I hope so
Miss Carl Sagan. As a child he really opened my eyes (I's).
You don't need to be born on Earth.
Either way, we are going to be okay.
Death is the same as that moment just after falling asleep and just before waking up.
Forever

Interesting Ernest Borgnine who was playing a centurion in Jesus of Nazareth during a scene himself said he Saw The Lord Jesus when he was directed to look up he stood by that the rest of his life he cried
Saying there isn't anything after this life is like saying there isn't intelligent life on other planets in our own galaxy, let alone the universe. There is something after this and I believe it's paradise. My mom came to me within a week of her passing. I was sleeping and she said hi Tim, I said hi Mom are you in heaven and she said yes. Unfortunately I never heard from her again. But we will unite again.
I’m glad to hear it...... I talk to my departed mum and dad all the time.....if I ask a question I get answers.......my family think I’m a kook....but that’s ok...... I once asked my dad what it’s like where he is now..... he said it’s very complex,,,,, I didn’t pay much heed to it at the time but the more I learn about quantum physics and other dimensions the more I’m starting to take notice of what he said........ I don’t think humans have the capacity of understanding all that is.........keep on keeping on. Blessings to you 🥰🥰🥰🥰
There is lots after your life but based on the evidence so far you won't experience any of it because you will no longer exist.
It's the state of nothingness that terrifies me
@@AlmostReady504 "It's the state of nothingness that terrifies me"
How much did that terrify you before you were born?
@@cnault3244 Your perspective doesn't help me, unfortunately. I was unaware of my non-existence before I was born. But now I have been born. Now, right now, this very present time is the time that I'm terrified of the thought of going back into non-existence. Absolutely pertified. I think I will continue to be afraid of death as long as I live.
Death is the exact same experience you had before being born. Billions of years of time instantly go by until you are born. Then another multiple billion years after death.

Would have loved to see him live into is 90’s and to see him in person.
An interesting presentation and the captions are most helpful for those who are hearing impared.
I see this life as a dream. A dream i love and enjoy. When i awake from this dream life will begin. Ive lost to many family and friends to believe this is it. Thats just my thoughts, and my thoughts give me comfort so im ok with my thoughts.
Yess me too. Theres gotta be more. I rlly think we have souls because how different everyone is🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@Pdizzle0.
At the end of the day, nobody really knows. So everyone believes what brings them comfort. I will see my mom again. Parents who lost children from cancer will see them again. That's what brings me peace and that's what I believe
Facts... It's finally nice to hear someone state the obvious.
Beautifuly explained. Thank you ❤
Energy never dies. We are energy. . Define these meanings. N then. Dying. Becomes nofhing, and absolutlt everyrhing. Into nothing. But its always love, light, frequencies, vibrations, and.. that thing we call love.
You took energy from the universe to be born and it will take it back - I despise you optimists, you are the reason why religion exists - to create hell.
Energy can not be created nor destroyed,, only our consciousness is temporary ❤
Our energy goes into bacteria unless we are burned - same to us either way. stop making yourself special.

Wow that was deep! And it all makes sense!
What wonderful insight the man had, I felt every word of this. ❤
At my dads funeral 10 years ago a fireman was doing roll call during the service said my dads name several times, another fireman stood and said he was present but unable to speak, hit me hard i haven't been the same without my dad. Hope to see him again on the other side 🙏
i concluded this myself some time ago and i am so happy someone else has also thought about this exactly the same
My teacher ❤️ I am happy that I am worthy.
Best line on death was from Movie "LONESOME DOVE" Someone asks the Mexican cook guy. What he thinks happens when we die. He replies.." Nothing much, were just dead"... Loved that response. We dont know it, we dont feel it, like no big deal.... Thought it was profound from the moment of some guy stirring Frijoles!..
Great series.
The problem is that most people don’t want that SO BADLY they accept silly kids stories as true.
Selling hope is the second oldest profession 😂
A profound elaboration that brings about clarity or offers clarity of some sort that removes some doubt on the normally ambiguous nature of life and death 👈👈🤠
Goosebumps, indeed.
FINALLY! An explanation for the "afterlife" that makes sense.
The video may sound nice, but it is NOT true! After a human being dies, THEY WILL MEET GOD. “And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment” -Hebrews 9:27
@@ronbusby3335 So what? This is as much possible as any other option. Jeez that's what's most annoying part about Judeo-Christian beliefs, that they feel like owners of the only right and absolute truth, just because someone long time ago once wrote it down in a book 🤣
@@Mihau0794 my dear friend, it was not just some random person who wrote The Scriptures, it was The Lord Himself and He says in His Word “I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me” -Isaiah 45:5, and He lovingly warns humanity of EXACTLY what will happen upon a person’s death “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” -Hebrews 9:27, please do not take my word for it, read for yourself what the Lord Himself says in Luke Ch16, about someone who is CURRENTLY in Hell. That person is still THERE right NOW! That is the awful consequence of dying without having your sins forgiven. “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” -Hebrews 10:31, But the Lord IS kind and He has made a way so that you do not have to go to that awful awful place. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” -Romans 10:13

@@munkeeboi1982 Your spirit is locked in the here and now. That is where the lessons come from. In the spirit world there are no definitions of space and time, of pain and suffering or trauma or even a longing like here.
This is refreshing to hear such thought. Absolutely enjoyed this ✌🧡👍
Wow, what an extraordinary philosophy. This is non-God-related spirituality of the highest order. It sculpts thoughts and visions about reincarnation (in the broadest sense of the word) into a work of art. It reminds me a little bit what the great Indian poet, writer and philosopher Rabindranath Tagore described in his masterpiece "The Religion of Man". Alan Watts was a Zen Buddhist and in that respect was actually very close to a rather agnostic/atheistic view in which spirituality played a very important role. What a great man he was.
Their are many paths Buddhist Christian Atheist Hinduism However the one constant being alone thinking meditation awareness we have to be aware regardless of our personal beliefs that their are many dimensions many realities and many spheres never ever make assumptions based on possibilities or for that matter the limitations we as humans place in ourselves at times unconsciously of course depending on definitions there in
The quote Joni Mitchell "WE ARE STARDUST"...👍🦋
“Starstuff”………Carl Sagan
We all originate from a cosmic jar of peanut butter. We never really die, we all become a collective peanut butter and jelly sandwich, God eats us for lunch (or perhaps just a snack) so that He (or She) has enough energy to make more stuff. Very simple.
I look at it this way;
Everyday above ground is a holiday;
Every meal is a banquet;
Yesterday was a memory;
And tomorrow is just a rumor.
WE HAVE A SOUL .
In an infinite universe, every instance of consciousness is the center of it, just like every star.
“I've often thought that there isn't any "I" at all; that we are simply the means of expression of something else; that when we think we are ourselves, we are simply the victims of a delusion.”

There are alot of things that we need to explore about death. As humans we are covered in fear of death.
True
🤌🏾
As ego* you are indeed
such as ?
Well, before you speak for all humans, maybe take a poll? I, for one, am completely fine with it. And not because I believe any silly religious life after death stories. But because, if nothing else, it will be the end of suffering.
This is very internal. And it is difficult to conceptualize and much less to try and explain it to another, yet I do indeed see how Alan is seeing... the grand illusion
nothing lasts forever is different than saying everything has an end. burn bright while you can ✌️
If our atoms came from stars then we have already burned as bright as we can.
We are all one. Everyone who is born to life, and there will be eternal births. So YOU never die really.
Eternal is just that both forwards and backwards in time (if it exists). Who is the worrier ? Who is the observer ?

@@quinnmorgan28How can you be certain of that? You wouldn't know because you haven't experienced it
@@quinnmorgan28That is what a person that wants to rule the world and rule over other people would say.
Or maybe you're just asking the wrong question. Nobody knows what started It.
What if 'it" has been here for an eternity..
Once a child is old enough to fully understand and communicate what they remember accurately, it would be interesting to ask them how far back they remember. I for example can’t remember being a baby, I remember very spotty back to maybe 7 or 8 but imagine asking someone when they’re 7 or 8 how far back they can go while still fresh in memory
Thanks God there is philosophers like alan watts alber camus who saved my life ❤
Every heartbeat is a new start at life. Every sleep is a mini death.
Bullshit.
It's so true
Explain your statement@@yankee2666
Every orgasm is a mini death, the french call it la petite mort" or "the little death"
I like to sleep. And I also like to breath, so I'm in a loop. I belive in reincarnation. If it will not happen, then I'm also at peace, because I like to sleep and rest.

Have you reached enlightenment yet ?
@@sanik1171 not quite
😊🏴☠️
The thought of Parallel universes, and this being a simulation gives me many goosebumps
Or, as Bucky Fuller put it, "I seem to be a verb."
When people ask what happens after we die, my first response is that we rot, because that is the one outcome of death for which we have empirical evidence. A more polite way of saying it is to say that we decompose, and a still more polite way is to say that we return to earth (or Earth). And that gets nearest to the heart of it, returning to that from which all life comes, to be reborn again as part of any number of new lives. Your personality matters mainly to you and a relatively small number of beings in situations similar to yours -- it was formed on the framework of your present body and will dissolve when the framework of the body no longer supports it. To dream of holding on to this personality forever is a rejection of life forever in transformation.
True we are physical beings we decompose interesting what you are saying I think I understand at least a little that your point I think is that people have to go beyond those limitations and transform into a higher more evolved form of themselves
Wonderful, I have always felt that we didn’t know anything before I was born, so it will be the same when I die. No worries! Brilliant man!
I just want to see my mother, hopefully. ❤
Me too I lost mine 10 years ago she was deeply spiritual Methodist we'll take anyone in she always said had the big picture you and I will see our mother's again

I belief we come from something infinite. We come to earth in this vessel not knowing we are infinite, to experience a tangible/ meaningful period of time.
When I died 20 years ago I was dead for only a couple of minutes. I was in a dark room at night when I died but the dark after dying was a dark I could see as opposed to the dark of night or closing my eyes. I also realised there was no bedroom furniture anywhere. And I was next to my bed and facing my bedside table. My wife who was shaking me said I'd inspired aas someone who had been dead.

I don't think you understand the nature of my comment. Your reply has nothing to do with what I wrote.
We learn how to hurt and we learn how to cry, like Humans do.
A chap I worked with said that he couldn't wait to sit on the right hand of God for eternity. I asked him if it was that good, why doesn't he go now? I asked him if he thought he might get bored struggling with the rest of those who also wanted to sit at the right hand of God. Who will God choose to be closest when it gets a bit crowded? These were all legitimate questions from me which elicited no answers...

Brilliant ta
I have never heard of Alan Watts. Never known any of his beliefs or ideas. All my life I have had the same ideas and beliefs on death. This is bizarre. I'm 66 years old. Not long ago, I had a conversation with my younger brother about death. He said, " I wonder what happens when we die". I said without hesitation, what happened before you were born? There is no difference. You are not alive on either side of your life. There was nothing before you lived so why would it be any different after you've lived?
Reminds me of a lecture by an astrophysicist who was asked “did you say the Sun will go out in 5 million or 5 billion years?” The astrophysicist said 5 billion years. The questioner said “oh, that’s a relief!”
Quando não se tem nada não se perde nada..........
Im still scared 😢
F...k!! Me too!!
Me too!
He doesn’t know . He is not God
It's natural dude.
If it helps let's look at it logically then;
...We will all inarguably die one day. So f@#k it.
So am I, but hey it is going to happen. Just do what you gotta do.
I think this video answered all of my questions!
When we die, I hope we are gone for good
Only the physical body dies, get over your bitternes and live your best life!
@@Undertaker257If we are going to be rude why don't you get over your childish delusion of your consciousness trancending your physical body and live YOUR best life.
Why who wants to be gone for good at the same time I somewhat share your sentiment this plane if existence with the exception of music literature and some other enlightened experiences is based on carnal desires materialism selfishness greed and basic corruption and if course animalistic tendencies which of course goes to my point we are higher more evolved forms of animals some more evolved than others
The absence of TIME and the absence of SPACE are both inconceivable. Therefore they do not exist and are constructs of consciousness.
Why is it that because something's absence is inconceivable then it means that thing does not exist?
@@africanpoet2134 imagine the end of space and time. You cannot IMHO. Now imagine an infinite space and time. You cannot even imagine it. ergo they are constructs.
I'm guessing that means the only reality is right here and right now as it's the only thing that is happening and therefore conceived?
We’ll be gone, as will all our problems. The only things that will live on are the things you did in life, which will ripple through humanity and the universe forever.
Rest in peace aunty. You will be missed.
NDE’s near death experiences suggest consciousness continues
NDE’s are only of this world. They don’t suggest that consciousness continues because that person isn’t fully dead. I mean mentally. They are still somewhat aware. After they are completely dead, there hasn’t been any proof it continues. Or else you would have recollections of before you were born
Near death is not actual death. Nobody knows
NDE is hallucinations totally different from death.
Im frustrated that we were born with no memory then left to navigate blindly through this life with constant attacks from demons, not knowing whats gonna happen next, striving, hitting brick walls, life being a constant struggle & then before you know it 50 yrs has just flown by & you still dont know where your going or what your doing, you dont know what your lifes purpose is, you feel like you messed up all the way & you dont know whether you will go to heaven or not.
That’s the whole point of life
@@discospiders if that's the whole point in life like what you say, then there's no point in going through this life at all
Don’t worry about any of this. Life is as difficult as we make it. Enjoy the now and when the now no longer exists you’ll be gone. And when everyone who ever knew you, and every piece of documentation about you is gone, it’s like you never were, except for the good or bad you did in the world and how those actions changed reality and people who they affected. The ripples of what you did live on, but your body and mind will be no more.
@@julzhotti5466 of course there is! This life is a classroom for our souls/spirits/consciousness. There are no failures, just lessons. Pain is necessary for growth.
@@discospiders I feel ripped off
I get your point ❤
Alan Watts - my hero of over 40 years and counting. How I would love to have met him in person.
I don't even want to think...about being nothing...
You already are.
If your nothing there,s nothing to think about ..😁
Does not give me goosebumps , it just makes me depressed.
hehehe
hehehehehe
You might have died thousands of times already. You might die thousands of more times. It’s the attachment to our persona that we fear loosing. But it’s only a play. It’s all good my friend 😊
He offers another perspective where this is one of many lives you can live but only one at a time. So go out and do, experience, live for the experience of newness and wonderment, strive for fearless, then when you're thoroughly ready,....Love.. and love unconditionally. Live how you love and love how you live, fearless. Depression be damned, the past no longer exist. We got this. Let's go.
Try to expirience everything in this life so u dont have the need to come back again ^^ depression is also one of those things.. but dont dwell on it, move on to the next experience!
