- Alan Watts - The Illusion of Reality (No Music)
Alan Watts often spoke about the illusions of reality and how our perception of the world can be distorted by our thoughts and beliefs. He believed that we often create mental constructs and stories that we mistake for reality, leading us to misunderstand ourselves and the world around us.
One of Watts' key ideas was that our sense of self, or our ego, is a construct that we create in our minds, rather than a fixed or objective reality. He argued that we often identify with our thoughts and emotions, creating a sense of separateness from the world around us. According to Watts, this sense of separateness is an illusion that creates suffering and prevents us from experiencing our true nature.
Watts also spoke about the illusion of time, arguing that our perception of time is a mental construct that we use to make sense of the world. He believed that past, present, and future are all part of a larger reality that is beyond our normal perception.
In addition, Watts often discussed the illusion of control, pointing out that we often have a false sense of control over our lives and the world around us. He believed that this illusion can lead to feelings of anxiety and helplessness when things don't go as we expect.
Overall, Watts' perspective on the illusions of reality was that our perceptions of the world are often shaped by our thoughts and beliefs, and that we need to be mindful of the mental constructs we create in order to avoid suffering and experience a deeper sense of connection with ourselves and the world around us.

About Alan Watts:
Alan Watts was one of the very first philosophers to interpret Eastern ideologies for a Western audience. Alan Watts was born outside of London in 1915. It was in his youth when he first discovered a nearby Buddhist lodge. In 1938 he moved to the United States where he became an Episcopal priest and relocated to Millbrook, New York,. it was here that he wrote his most pivotal book The Wisdom of Insecurity: A Message for an Age of Anxiety.
Alan later moved west to San Francisco in 1951. It was here that he began to teach Buddhist studies, and in 1956 he started his well-known radio show “Way Beyond the West.”
By the sixties, his radio talks were aired nationally and the counterculture movement had truly adopted him as a spiritual genius. Alan continued to write and travel until the end.

always disliked the inspiration music everybody puts on top of alan watts, distract me from the words
That exactly was my first thought after the video started.
Agreed!
Best Alan Watts channels are without the distraction of music or slideshow images. 🙏🏾✝️🕎✡️☪️☮️☯️🤙🏾
This is why I still use youtube, because when I look for Allan Watts without music. I will find a video uploaded by a person that thought the same. Thank you for the upload.
Thanks Alan.. where ever you are.
Massive Kudos on this audio cleanup, it's extremely high quality.
Much appreciated!
Kudos is Finnish for "weave".. like Indra's web. Just one of those things that make me smile.
Such good audio. Such wise words from a legend 🙌🏻☮️💘🌌
The real thing no MUSIC OR DOODLING!!! 💓✌️👍
Beautiful audio. Thank you so much.
How refreshing...no silly music, thank you !
Thank you 🙏
This audio quality is so clean
"who you think you are is dependent on what others tell you you are" thats why I spend most time in solitude.
Beware: Samsāra is Nirvāna. Avoiding the world may be a step in the learning process, but the goal is to fully be in it.
@ngs8022 I have to be in it within my own way. I look upon this plan of existence and all I see is facades, people thinking said facades are real, thus all I see is filth
@@Mr.CreamCheese69Most of my time is spent in solitude also. There is no person here that wants anything from a person there. All is one - so the apparent I and apparent others are The Absolute Infinite appearing as separate but never being anything other than The Whole. However, within The Whole are real illusions. The sky really does appear to be blue. But if you fly up and open the window of your plane to fill a container with the air up there you’ll find when you land that it isn’t blue. But the blueness is a real illusion. If your painting a picture of the sky you’d be silly to not paint it blue, because the blue is not real. Apparent humans believing the sky to be blue cannot really be termed “filth.”
@@Mr.CreamCheese69 by labeling and judging how people view said facades as “filth” your ego has come into play. The universe just is, nothing else. But if you take relative reality into account, you would not see filth, but suffering. Other beings clinging to ideas and facades is suffering, and you should never judge them for experiencing this suffering.
Gorgeous ❤
Thank you for the clean up on the audio.
Wow this is extremely high quality
One thing I noticed: at 10:00 minutes he strikes a gong as he says "this". Only not too loudly, so he can talk over it. Your noise gate erased it. The second gong is audible. I suggest you use it to replace the gong that was erased. Otherwise perfect :)
Thank you for no music
The Cosmos is one I would love to hear without music since your page seems to be the only one
When realizing what a complex sensation boredom is one's breath is taken away.
damn, that audio quality
Thanks for noticing!
Could you also please make a clear high quality audio of “Nature of consciousness” ?
Will do!
One suggestion:
Make the "gong" louder a bit. That is supposed to grab the attention and if you're simply wandering, bring you back. Louder sounds would work much effectively.
May I compliment you on the audio restauration?
Thinking or being thought
i wish i met this man.
Same!
You are this man
If this lecture resonates with you, in a sense, you have.
Alan Watts so clearly explain that is all one big energy.
INZO heard this and said.. hold my beer
Hey. Are you allowed to sample this on a track?
I have.. you can't sell or profit off anything used though, free releases
He would be a great dr. Strange.
The real Dr.Strange
Tanks not adding music
feels like it'[s a little AI along with it, a bit to precise.....
Did you mess with the audio? It doesn't sound like him any more.
Yeah I clean the audio and take out the "crud" as another viewer commented recently. It's more about restoration and making it easier for a wider audience. It's not for everyone, some people prefer the "IRL" in the room with him and everyone else vibe
Yea, so much of Allan Watts appeal is his voice. And I like how you put it, "in the room" with him. That's exactly the feel I get from his tapes.@@sublime_minds
“You never pick up after yourself!”
“You never pick up after yourself!”
“You never pick up after yourself!”
“You never pick up after yourself!”
“You never pick up after yourself!”
Is not DINGGGGGggg
you missed the point but its okay. Nothing really matters.
This is an AI
It's really not. We just scrub the audio
Everything that comes from the mind is a.i.
This comes from the heart ♡
@@sublime_minds can you provide a source to this specific talk? Seems far too crisp for audio that would have needed to be at the latest in the early 70s to get such quality for radio before he died.
@@spacelung Appreciate the compliment. it takes about 4 - 5 hours for me to clean up a single hour of his recordings. The original sounds as you would expect.
@@sublime_minds Can you provide the original source?
Sounds like AI
now, just drop the silly animation, then it would be just perfect.
Mr Watt’s opinions of music gave me a huge pause. He’s absolutely wrong.
What do you mean?
