This video is about a talk given by Alan Watts about what people desire in life The speaker Alan Watts argues that people suffer because they desire things. People desire things because they are aware of time and know that everything will end. This awareness leads people to want to control everything and avoid unpleasant experiences. However, the desire for control is a futile effort, because true happiness comes from letting go and trusting the universe. The speaker says that the more you give up control, the more connected you become to the universe. This is because the universe is constantly flowing and changing, and the more you resist this flow, the more anxious you will become. Letting go of control allows you to experience the present moment and appreciate the beauty of the universe. The speaker concludes by saying that the more you give away the more you get back. This is because when you let go of control, you are no longer wasting energy trying to defend yourself. This frees up energy that you can use to connect with the universe and experience true happiness.
Alan Watts is like a big bag of rice with a hole in it...
Each word falls out of his mouth and leaves a trail to nourishment and substance.
Nice analogy
That was very Wattesque.
Well said!!
This picture tho! I've had this dream a thousand times
