I would too but your comment made me think. Through UA-cam we can all sit with him for a few hours. We can't ask him questions but we can listen to his wisdom any time that we like.
Love Alan but I do find it a bit ironic how the titles of all these clips are never really precise descriptions of what Alan is saying, but more like a dumbed down interpretation of the person posting. His stuff is much deeper and typically too circular for these specific kinds of titles. Not sure if that’s clickbait but it is annoying.
When he said that every creature and every race believes it needs to go on, I paused the video, and just thought about that on my morning walk home, we all believe that we ought to exist forever, and my conclusion is that this belief was born from a fear of death, but without death, life becomes meaningless in the first 2 centuries, nothing is precious anymore, because eventually you'll experience everything that could ever be experienced, and nothing disappears forever, the truth is, to me at least, that we ought not go on, because that would be the end of bravery and the end of meaning.
Why 2 centuries? Why not 20 years, or 2 years? Why not 2 months? As long as life and history continue, we'll find new things to experience. And if time can't give us those things then we'd run out of new things to possibly ever experience in far shorter time than 2 centuries. Also, one could say that the point of life is to take these experience and embrace them fully as they are, without regard for time or history. Then it doesn't matter how long (or short) your life is, it'll always be as good as it could ever be and maybe it's a decent reason to want for life to continue forever.
Alan Watts always has a way of bringing perspective and peace. His words remind us that happiness comes from within, not from external circumstances. What’s a piece of wisdom from him that resonates with you the most?

They are all distributed networks: fishes, bee hives, families, cities, countries, organizations, corporations, entire ecosystems. In other words slow neural networks as a whole who have their own levels of consciousness and intelligence that interact and react to that without :) Even the internet and subunits of the internet, like social media complexes. Think of how they react to massive DOS attacks, power outages, or large news events.
Oh that's the zen teacher. Yeah there's tons of his lectures on UA-cam. I downloaded some. He's funny and witty. But the problem is you can't fix your problems by ignoring them or not taking them seriously. Changing location is the key to changing your life. Not changing your thoughts. That's the big fallacy with the new age and spirituality movement.
Just feel, get relieved, entertained, enlightened through feeling. Remember Dao❤🎉😂. I can't say that I understand a thing of what this brother is saying. But I love him. I love you too, 'bro. 😅😂❤🎉😊
Yep, but I don’t think Alan has a way of knowing what he said about animals(nature) feeling they are the ‘center’ of the universe. Seems to me that’s a characteristic unique to a human ego.
In Buddhism the intelligent were called bamans which was sanskritised as Brahmins and bikkus came to be in Buddhism from bamans so correct your research
I wish i could sit with Alan Watts for a few hours

They are twisting his thoughts and some have put their thoughts and used AI for this great man's voice and spreading wrong notions
@@aj_wuwei like a piece of paper that has been painted over and painted ove. Read his books don't miss the book
Click bait..all liars...wished they just be truthful
I just put my headphone in and listen to his words ❤
@@lemongrabloids3103 the problem is some of it is not even him. Read his books
Truly. I hope something good happens to you all today!

So that's why I can't create miracles. Hmm.

I love Alan Watts ♥️ ❤️ 💙

Perfect morning sauna meditation.

harsh for a buddhist
My dear fellow Human, please forgive him, his research was done in the 50s and 60s. Correct books on Buddhism were hard to find.
Yeah, Alan Watts! Fool should’ve researched properly instead of clicking the first few google results
