This is the real secret of life - to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.-Alan Watts
When I was young I never thought about life. I just enjoyed everything and lived in the moment. At age 50 I started to think about time passing. I wondered about purpose. I wish I could live like in the past. I miss that.
bassie bassie it’s weird , I’ve stopped thinking about purpose and such for a while and I feel weird , like I don’t know empty it’s like I want to have these thoughts on daily basis and I can’t live without them ...
@@hiimlivas8286 hahaha i get you bro i am also just very intruged by those thoughts its easy to feel shit if you think to much about it so i think it is healthy to take a break from thinking that way. But still i feel like that is part of me i want to do sometin with the way i think but what hahah 19 is difficult...
life is a game. whatever happens in life or at work, dont take it too seriously. this is the message that I get after watching the video. thank you, you made my day Alan Watts ! :)
Sylph Natural People fear death because they have identified themselves as an isolated image, which is the soul/self/ego. "I" is usually what we give our status, our roles, our ideas and concepts about ourselves, none of which is the actual organism as it is in relation to the environment, the biosphere, the universe, and ultimately, the cosmos itself. If one feels other than what there is, they will surely be scared at the idea of being cut off from what there is, but the cutting off is merely changes of form and process. Such a thing - the ego - does not exist, so there is no 'other side' to go to. For there to be an other side, things have to be isolate, standalone, but if there's one thing science has shown us, it's that all things are interconnected, interdependent, and impermanent in their form; all things are change in a non-dualistic cosmos.
Destin Fate What do you mean? The realization of the loss of ego? One is simply a pattern of existence in nature that goes with the cosmos. When the pattern ends, it goes into other things. This is literally a natural kind of 'reincarnation. The spook is that by feeling like a self or feeling a separate "I" promotes that things are cut off; they are not. I'm kind of confused by the proposition here. It hasn't brought "me" anything because the whole point if the illusion of self is that the "me" I identify as does not actually exist in nature. One is an organism in combination with environment, and most people feel the "I" that exists are ideas, labels, statues they are. This all might sound confusing to explain, but getting the experience of ego death really brings this to clarity. Alan Watts talks about this a lot, but if you're looking for someone from the sciences to show this isn't hogwash, I'd suggest Sam Harris.
ShakinJamacian if it brings you happiness and some one rejects your ideas just dont care we have freewill we are all different no one person is experiencing the same reality as the next person its the way they view reality , dont care what others say if its not to youe liking dont argue just ignor
Alan was one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. You are performing a great service by keeping his words alive on UA-cam and promoting his books. Thank you very much. And thank you Alan; you're needed now more than ever!
I don't know why but this video makes me feel both happy and sad, happy due to the logic and simplistic truth in the amazing Alan Watts words and wisdom. Sad, well sad because when you hear his words it makes you realize that the world could be used in such better ways when compared to the badness that happens. Happy because when you hear his words it makes you realize that no matter what, no matter what evil or badness may be out there ruining it for others, that there are people just like Alan was, whom have such a clear and better view on the world and it's (goodness).
I remember first time listening to this around 2014 at a very low point in my life. I downloaded it so i could have it with me everywhere i go. This is how important this was for me. I always come back to watch this again. But something strange i noticed is that i remember the editing of the video a bit different back then. I tried to look for the other one but couldn't find something similar to this. Maybe i just misremembered it..
I always think about those who have suffered and whom were murdered and it makes me appreciate life more and more. life is short .... don't end it while u are alive.
The secret of life is to be completely engaged in what you are doing here and now, and call it play! The real reality of you is existence and joy. Thanks Alan. 🎀🕊🍾🌲✔🏅🤡🎯
I just stumbled upon this channel, and I simply love the words of Watts, the gorgeous artistic design, and the music that follows. It's something worth watching before going to bed and waking up.
The secret of life is to be "completely engaged in what you are doing now." I can take this further by expanding on it, "to feel passion and to be in love with life." To not look too far ahead in the future or dwell in the past, it is to be conscious of your awareness now. To feel your heart opening and surrendering to the sights, sounds and images that excite our senses. To not think with the mind, but feel the energy of life. There is life in everything around us…in nature, music, words, busy streets, etc. To be awake and to breathe in the oxygen of living in the now.
Life is a celebration a show-off, it really is. Energy in many different forms all play their part, a purpose. Humankind is the back-end of it on planet Earth. I think we can do better, much better!
I'm glad I had life figured out long time ago then, because I had been treating lots of things in life as a challenges, as a game, including work. As I've always say, life is like an RPG, get experience, level up, and is game over when you die. LOL :D
I realized this in a meditation a few weeks ago, but in the words I needed to hear, were “you can’t do anything wrong” - and it meant by by finding and following my life - or not finding/following it. What matters is to have this human experience, whatever shape and form it has. Because it’s all information which will be brought ‘home’. I asked further, and was told, the only person this experience matters to, or matters the most, is me. Me as this 3D character. So I shall decide to live a life that’s meaningful TO ME, and only to me. My higher self will value any path I take, even if it’s deviates from the initial intention of the incarnation (the game). It’s all an illusion, all this fear. It’s all to keep us trapped in their power play to make them feel important. Guess what, they are not.
As Sallam Allaikum We all have problems even God is having problems with all of us! Why not try helping Him to solve yours by simply praying praising Him n exalt Him! Live one day at a time forgive n forget n figure out what you want in life whether if you want to be heard as a singer or just go on public n sing sing sing!!! Sigh.... people are people so.... just do what you think you love and pls fo it now!!! Allah kareem! God bless you all!
"I can't help loving you. I love you so much. I could eat you." Hmmmm... Beautiful! Where could we hear those lines, from who? All I can say is, Life is so so so wonderful!
Last week enjoyed skiing as much or more than any other day skiing in my 46th year of it. I calmed myself and then thought of this video's red flower and the concept of "that which happens of itself."
This video makes me feel as I did when I learned that the atoms in my right hand could have came from a different star than the atoms in my left hand. In a sense, I feel more connected than ever.
"The secret: Most people know you do not need “things” or things to happen to be happy (be fulfilled), but most people do not know how it works. The secret is opening your mind. Without thought and negative emotions, the same thing happens that happens when you get what you think you want. You become as sensual as you can possibly be; you become your senses."-an excerpt from "The Present" on *the truth contest site* (google it). What it says can turn this word around.
After watching a selection of Alan Watts videos, I'm finding it difficult to carry on, because of the music on most of them......I don't need some piece of music to affect my emotions while listening to Alan Watts, the words are enough!
+ theJourneyofPurpose TJOP I totally adore this video and have been using it for the past year in the youth facilitation work I do but am sad to see that the music doesn't play from 1:20 through till the end? I'd love to know if you removed it, TJOP, or if it's a bug on my end? And if there'll be any other music added? It was a really great song selection, as I recall and fitted right in with the sweeping visuals. Please and thank you!
I also miss the music very much! This is one of my most favorite videos and it helps lift me up and inspire me to be the best ME that I can! I sure hope the music can be restored somehow! 💕🍃
***** I begin watching it since 1 year and the music was alright, but some months passed and the music stopped in that period. It was perfect with the music.
T- Willy Ok, what would happen if everyone decided to enjoy themselves, look out for number one, and play all the time? What would happen to the world, specifically?
We would become like every other species on this planet. That's not the point I was trying to make though. I'm just saying that's your perspective. Someones life might be all about hedonism and having fun. And that's ok.
Sadly few in the Earth Program know and understand the DIFFERENCE between the species and "The Living One" or LIFE. The Real Self (NOT human) is LIFE, experiencing the human species ,other species and what humans believe to be the Universe.
+Empz Lal Yea, I was just browsing the comments to see if anyone noticed this, what happened to the sound here? It used to be normal and you could hear everything but now you can only hear small pieces of the music. What gives?
Happened that the music authors and youtube eliminate the sounds of some of the music themes that had the video. That topic was about 3 years ago, I still remember when the video and music was perfect. :(
As a gamer/procrastinator I think I can make a difference between work and play. It's nice and all, but he didn't say there was a reason to live he even went on and said there isn't a reason to live. Therefore I have not become enriched by any information or advice that would get me out of this emotional crisis. Not very inspiring. He is pretty much stating the obvious with piano in the background. I can't base my future on the spontaneity of life.
Arvid Aasa True, it's better and simpler. He does state that death is not your only true freedom. Living in the here and now is too. But then again what is your here and now? I'm supposed to be studying right now yet I'm answering you. Tomorrow I will go to school I'll be happy to be with my friends and make jokes. Right now I don't want to make homework if I stay true to my "now" I'll waste an other day of my life not preparing for the future. After school I'll be going to work so I make money to eat, live. That work is my now in a way. To live i need that job. But in few years ill be miserable because i don't love that job. But I don't like school either. Again. He doesn't give reasons why things should be different. Life is random.
Yeah, it is. Thats sort of the point in this video. There is no right and wrong to me made. Life is life, things happen, some you plan and some you dont.
You shouldn't need someone to tell you what to do with your life. He is merely explaining that what we have been brought up to believe in western society isn't the only way of looking at life. In the end this is play not work, that is meant to invoke a positive response as existence is amazing! Listen to his other speeches, he is an incredible motivator and philosopher.
You sound like you want to be dissatisfied. Alan is referring to the world as seen from a different state of consciousness, the type of spontaneity that you have no part in. Letting yourself happen, without worrying over the details.
Life is now when you wake up you open your eyes and find out your alive... It doesn't have to mean anything but simply give thanks and walk on... Just be present in everything... Feel the pain the pleasure the love etc... You would understand life... Life is not a word because you are not words it must not mean anything because that question is completely irrelevant... Life is like a grass in a field it is significant on itself, later wither or eaten by animals but it doesn't not question itself but simply existed it doesn't mean anything... To have a meaningful life is simply to stop questioning and just start of living, feeling, loving, etc... To add something intellectual questioning to that is to not understand it at all...

Living is the experience to participate in an indirect creation, guided by the universe.

But we r the universe way of experiencing itself so basically we guide ourselves thru a indirect god seems legit.

Exactly. You are being a responsible and moral human being because life is not just about hedonism and enjoying yourself all the time.
+Olivia Selvig that's just your logic to justify your own actions in life. Not a bad thing, but that's definitely subjective.
T- Willy Ok, what would happen if everyone decided to enjoy themselves, look out for number one, and play all the time? What would happen to the world, specifically?
We would become like every other species on this planet. That's not the point I was trying to make though. I'm just saying that's your perspective. Someones life might be all about hedonism and having fun. And that's ok.

Again. He doesn't give reasons why things should be different. Life is random.
Yeah, it is. Thats sort of the point in this video. There is no right and wrong to me made. Life is life, things happen, some you plan and some you dont.
You shouldn't need someone to tell you what to do with your life. He is merely explaining that what we have been brought up to believe in western society isn't the only way of looking at life. In the end this is play not work, that is meant to invoke a positive response as existence is amazing! Listen to his other speeches, he is an incredible motivator and philosopher.
You sound like you want to be dissatisfied. Alan is referring to the world as seen from a different state of consciousness, the type of spontaneity that you have no part in. Letting yourself happen, without worrying over the details.
Excellent music and video.
I just don't understand life
Ask Jesus to help you. Amen.
Don't worry. .nobody else does either. ....it's just a Ride. ..
Cause your a fucking knife bruh 😂🤣
Life is now when you wake up you open your eyes and find out your alive... It doesn't have to mean anything but simply give thanks and walk on... Just be present in everything... Feel the pain the pleasure the love etc... You would understand life... Life is not a word because you are not words it must not mean anything because that question is completely irrelevant... Life is like a grass in a field it is significant on itself, later wither or eaten by animals but it doesn't not question itself but simply existed it doesn't mean anything... To have a meaningful life is simply to stop questioning and just start of living, feeling, loving, etc... To add something intellectual questioning to that is to not understand it at all...
