This happened to me in 2014. My life has changed so radically, since then, that I still fail to understand. Magic exists. Believe… with your heart. It becomes a natural reflex… like blinking. That’s not to say you will not suffer; the difference is, it makes the suffering meaningful. Love to all.
Hey, i am kind of going through same phase as per your description. I feel like to talk with someone who understands the spiritual life, rather share i would say not talk. Intense suffering is being going on from last 10 years, where i put my actions for doing good, everytime it has turn around and hit me back. Meanwhile, i am trying to find the answers “why” its happening despite all connection with (rparents, friends, well wishers) are doing and hoping best for me with their Gratitude….despite ther is still suffering. Loving this diving of inquiry, making suffering little less hurtful…
@@jenishmodipodcast you must relinquish control, my friend. That is the best advice I can give. Don’t think! Shut you brain off… think with your intuitive heart and you will find your path. It might not make sense… but there will be messages along the way that guide you. I really don’t have the words to capture it.
March 1984. I was 19 and I experienced Cosmic Consciousness: that everything is One, that everything is made up of the same energy but it can manifest in literally billions of [apparently] different forms. I felt at the core of this energy was pure absolute love. I feel very blessed to have had this experience and it has helped me a happy and giving person - after all: We Are All One!
something happened to me when I was 17 ( now I'm 28). I felt like connected to everything and that I understood existence. Never happened again though. It's an undescribable experience
@@Marwan-fz8nx you might enjoy reading the books by Robert A Johnson, in his ‘autobiography’ for e.g. he describes his experience akin to what you seem to have encountered - that at age 16… he called it the ‘Golden World’ , his ‘Grail castle ‘experience. RAJ was a Jungian analyst who met CGJung in Switzerland in the mid-40’s as I recall. - Can recommend all of his books. No worries if it doesn’t resonate. What truly resonates w/ you will find you sooner or later. Greetings. C
Same applies to money,love,there is no end to what we are capable of accomplishing, I have been following Alan and his son for years,and his words entice me.I Ave a dream where I am flying,past the clouds pass universes,if you look for these things you will not find them,live in the moment,I do good with my Duncan yoyo and a spinner,am always wondering what's the 90percent of our brain we don't use
Watts said something to the effect that: …if you don’t chase ‘It’ (the universe), It won’t elude you. Because, ‘It’ is you-‘tat tvam asi’ (that is you)-manifesting the universe in the place you call here and now. It’s like a dog chasing its tail. This explains, why God is as much a mystery to me as I am to myself. Understanding both as One, is in the void.
Execellent reframing! Thank you. At one point in my life, I thought I was a “seeker,” that that was what I was supposed to be-on a quest for some kind of fulfillment. Now, gratefully, I know to simply trust the Universe. Tis better to be a Finder.
I felt like this all the time in early childhood, they called it autism. It got supressed and I forgot. Yet I felt a deep nostalgia for some time or place long long ago. During the virus idiocy, I broke, I was fully teared apart , falling on my knees in the mud crying my guts out, screaming. In the middle of a thunderstorm. It was at that exact moment, I experienced what this man described, and afterwards the memories came back, from my childhood.
I had a few of thes moments and more! I was in a grocery store and just lost it as everyone was glowing source love. I live at the base of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. I look out my patio and sometimes just bust out into tears at the beauty. Grateful, grateful for the grace 🙏😇🤗🦋🐬💜❣️
I'm from Longmont and I have witnessed the same beauty. I miss the thunder and lightning storms. We don't have them in the Pacific Northwest where I now live. Beauty surrounds me here as well. Peace and ❤️ to you.
I have this strong feeling that there are no errors and all fits together as a puzzle. Just like a puzzle that is in pieces, we see only one piece and not the whole picture. We want one piece but another piece we want not. But like that the puzzle would not be complete and the puzzle must be complete
Alan Watts discusses the nature of reality and the illusion of the self. He begins by talking about how we perceive the world through our senses, and how this perception is limited by our physical bodies. He then goes on to say that the self is also an illusion, and that we are all part of a larger whole. Watts uses a number of analogies to illustrate his points. For example, he compares the self to a wave on the ocean, and the universe to the ocean itself. He also talks about how we are all connected to each other, and how we are all part of the same process of evolution. Watts's message is that we should not take ourselves too seriously, and that we should enjoy the ride. He says that we are all just actors in a play, and that the only thing that matters is how we play our part. I found Watts's video to be very thought-provoking. I agree with his point that the self is an illusion, and that we are all part of something larger than ourselves. I also think that it is important to enjoy the ride, and to not take life too seriously. Here are some of the key points from the video: The self is an illusion. We are all part of a larger whole. We should not take ourselves too seriously. We should enjoy the ride. I think these are all important points to consider, and I would encourage everyone to watch the video and think about what Watts has to say.
Covid almost killed me 6 months on 3 forms of life support in an ICU ward I was put in a drug induced coma and I went somewhere I have very vivid memories of it. I also had a NDE. I've been struggling with who I am and what my purpose is. I've also been struggling with my faith, and Alan Watts somehow popped up in my suggested videos and thay have given me a new perspective and outlook on life.
How do you expierence things differently now? I feel like that in society a lot of people play roles and that life can be very fake like that, because people are not genuine.
Look for advaita vedanta( non duality ) hindu religion is the oldest and first religion to talk about non duality enlightenment in detail via yoga and meditation. Read autobiography of a yogi by paramhansa yogananda or books of ramakrishna mission
I agree with warrior that the Advaita Vedanta school of thought is superior. Truth is found scattered amongst all of the religions and wisdom traditions, but Advaita Vedanta condenses it all in one place. As does the Hermetic wisdom tradition, which is the foundation stone of all the world's religions, when traced back far enough. ("The Kybalion" is recommended.) Truth is Truth and is absolute and changeless. And when Christianity is truly understood (as taught by Christ, not men) it is the same as Advaita Vedanta and the Hermetic tradition at the core, with an added "cherry" on top: the capstone of the Great Pyramid of Life; the Perfect Example which is a "sacrifice" only in terms of MAKING SACRED; not relinquishing anything of value - the relinquishment of that which HAS NO value and obscures the true Treasure. "Spirit is life, the flesh counts for nothing." - JC (John 6:63) ("A Course in Miracles" is recommended.) Elijah has returned, as prophesied, and testifies. And yes, Paramahansa Yogananda had it all together. Get his two volume set: "The Second Coming of Christ."
As a youth, I experimented with whippets (nitrous oxide), which usually results in about a 30 second, mini acid-trip like state. Waaaw waaaw waaaw for those who know. One time, for only a few moments, I truly felt like I had a comprehensive understanding of how Time, Space, and Nature fit together. Everything made sense. That was nearly 40 years ago, and though I have never been able to reproduce the sensation, it still resonates with me today.
They have changed the word feel to fear to control us, but thanks to Alan the passion is still alive and well in many of us.. God bless. I've had the feeling for years and it's getting stronger now., 💯
Beautiful words by Alan. One has to understand that there is big difference between belief and knowingness. One has to have grace for experience this. It needs higher dimensions of consciousness. 🙏🙏🙏
November 16, 2020. When a moment of immense grief out in the woods turned into a miraculously improbable encounter with what I can only call God or the Infinite at this point. Whatever it is, it's nothing like what the religions describe. It's not this vindictive, judging external entity. It's Everything, happening in every moment. That's the only way I know how to put it into words without applying my own idea of its nature to it. But whatever the truth of it may be, I wish this type of encounter for everyone. It changes everything, while persisting as it ever did. Life is beautiful, and I want nothing less than that for you, dear reader. 💕
I don’t think that anyone can really deeply understand and appreciate another person’s religion or faith without one to completely emergence themselves with it and into it and to go as deep as one possibly can do. And even then you may not fully comprehend it. You have to make it your own, you have to own it and feel it and experience it, then perhaps you can comment on it. Bless always.
Every single speech spoken by Alan, this guy just makes me feel that feeling of being a child at home, absorbing everything around and everything being said. Much like a parents words to a child. Priceless, life-long, far reaching with so much relatability only home has such profound credentials..
23rd November 2004.. i can remember every detail. It changed my life. I can't put into words the feeling i experienced except pure love, orgasmic and peace..
That fourth minute: Pseudo mysticism as the notion that the belief that everything is one harmonious being will lead to the feeling that it is so. But it doesn't. And I've told so many people that the way to end a mystical experience is to try to tell someone about it; but he's right; it is fundamental to our nature to do so. Because there is so much on the line - everything really. This one is perfect - so very dense with value.
I feel like this all the time. Alan watts is as close to a real prophet if there were one. Same as tolle. Once you have that true realisation our religions and doctrines are wrong, that all is one and you you grew like an apple off an apple tree 🍎 🌳 then you'll be free.
People always laughed at the Double Rainbow Guy, but I’ve always been convinced that was a perfectly documented case of a spontaneous mystical revelation. He even said in later interviews that he looked into the eye of God.
I've never been able to transcend the feeling of being an individual. Not meditation, not Psilocybin, and not LSD ever made me feel like I was part of something more than me
I realize whoever published this probably feels they want to add a cinematic effect, but I'd say most people that like Alan Watts would love to hear this without blaring and distracting music.. Thank you anyway for lowering it a bit in the middle. Much love 😎
Experienced the holy spirit years ago, a few drops that entered from the top of me head , about 4 and than each exploded with absolute Ecstasy, never forget it.
Mysticism means your personal identity is transcended. The external world feels like your own body. Everything feels in harmony The sensation of universal harmony cannot come when it is sought. It hits you. No doubt about it. The meaning of being alive is being alive. Thanks Alan. 25 April 2023.🦋😇🦋🎈🌻🥁🥅🏇🐘🔔☯️
I remember as a child, I once had an out of body experience. I was watching myself wake up, and it was a blissful feeling observing myself. The moment I realized that it's not normal to observe yourself, I snapped back into my own 1st person perspective. I've thought about this a lot. Maybe it was just a dream, but maybe it was more. Maybe I was able to relax my being into the expansive universe beyond myself. It was fine when I was relaxed but the moment I realized I was living outside myself, I panicked and withdrew into myself. I wonder if I can ever get back there.
There's a saying in Zen about "the stink of Enlightenment." It means there is a tendency to turn around, to look back at experiences such as you describe, with nostalgia. I'm not saying you should not remember it since it is proof of a much greater reality, but don't get stuck in the past. When another experience happens it will be different.
@@franceshaas8255 I see. Thank you fro that, I have adhd and struggle really finding that control / focus. Have any advice for that as well? and may God Bless.
Love is honoring the reality as it is: Some people desire to awaken. Some people don't know how to awaken. Some people do not desire to awaken at all is the rhythmic scale of reality at vary degrees.
I believe I got one of these experiences because i felt like he said in the video that i had to tell everyone about it but i was then made fun of and labeled as crazy which I didn't mind because how could they understand what i mean when they hadn't had this experience, words are inadequate to explain what happened, I've never felt as confused and euphoric my entire life. after a while the experience faded and i got very depressed, they said i had a drug induced psychosis, maybe i had but it felt amazing, i couldn't go to sleep because i feared the experience wouldn't be there when i woke up, I don't know what happened but a lot of what he said in this video i have also felt
Ive had some thoughts i feel no one has had before. Ive thought and philosophised so much that some days i couldnt even sleep. I become wolly aware of the observer, he who sits in-between the lower and higher self. For we are 3d beings, are we not? I could go on and on, i believe i am walking close to razors edge of genuis and insanity.
I've had thoughts that no one's had before. They are all my very own thoughts and I'm not sharing them with just anybody. They would think I'm mad, or even crazy. 🤯
@@phoenixrising5088 That's true, abnd I respect your decision. You would, however, be in good company, albeit likely postmortem. The craziest sounding ideas are likely the only ones which might be useful.

“Yet here is everybody rushing around in a great panic as if would necessary for them to achieve beyond all that and the funny thing they’re quite not sure what it is” -Mystical Mind-Allan Watts- “Very Weird Very Absurd”
2017 when I was trying to learn councious dreams, then I had my first out of body experience. For at least 2 weeks after that I felt so differen, like I would be looking through someone elses eyes. I had to share with my parents friends that there is life after dead, I felt like I would be not human anymore just someone else like alien out of space sent on earth so weird feeling. Like I immediately gained knowledge not in words so then I didn't even know how to explain that to others. I had to stop talking about this as people at work started looking at me in a strange way😅 Be careful to whom you are telling about this. Thanks to Allan I understood what had happened and he talk about this so beautifully.
Could this be the exact reason I always feel, ( no matter where I try to settle in one place ), as if I have just been dropped off into nowhere ? Is this why I always feel closer to animals and nature, as apposed to people ? 🤔😐🐎🐘 Very grateful 🌎🌍🌏
Would people agree in the comments, that if you are not conscious of this feeling that you are stuck in the illusion of your own importance, identity and search for meaning?
Happened to me in Winter of 2006. Was on a business trip, driving alone very early morning, light snowfall, no one else on road...out of nowhere had an out-of-body experience where i was floating above a large valley of wheat. There was a presence like some sort of wind blowing around, over, and through me and moving the field below me. It felt like something whispered a secret to me that removed all my anxieties and desires.. I felt as One with everything and started weeping uncontrollably. All of a sudden im driving again... One cup of coffee and a numinous experience triggered by solitude of early light, snow falling, etc... Still makes me tear up
its okay to be overwhelmed by what is its always going to be a great suprise to itself thats wht makes it worth while. the only truth you need is that it takes nothing to have someing and you just get it.
After this experience, the synchronicity becomes unbelievable! The universe starts showing you things and the more you learn, the more it happens. Just beware of darkness.
We are exposed to the actual truth through all things. In the end it is *up to us* to find the path. Reality doesn't bend around us, that is selfishness. One must see the root and route of the stream
I did wake up in 1997, I was 31 year. I died for over 2 minutes and it's the best thing ever happened to me. Before I was all about Money and job, big Tv and so on. After I did feel alone in the world, because I was changed. I now was hating money and most people....Sorry good people.. It was about nature and animals. I do wish you all the best.
All my life it as been like this from year 8to right now the present 62 suffering is the key and then the Devine comes sometimes months sometimes hours both same suffer devine
Mystic.. the trap and stopping point of the vainglorious and power seekers. Once you attain it, if you cannot let it go? You will never find what is really the end goal.
One must use methods to get to “the end goal”. All methods are traps but the method is still essential, however, it is key to not get caught in the method as I previously stated, all methods are traps. It seems you understand, but your message is too simple, it will seem complicated to those that do not already understand. If you wish to help others see, you may want to consider making what you say a bit more complicated so it seems simpler to them, if that makes sense to you 🙏
I always love it when Alan calls things absurd, its fucking funny to me because it is absurd and he says ot so plainly like yes. We are all insane people lol!
I so Love my creater my mother Earth that gives all that I need I breath air it give me food and water how simple t is to live!!!... I'm Choctaw Cheeket and German and Black Dutch and live in so many worlds
As A Course in Miracles states (paraphrased): Absolute Reality - Truth - cannot be described or explained, but must be experienced. A universal theology is impossible. But a universal experience is not only possible, but necessary. The biblical prophet Elijah has returned, as prophesied, and testifies.

I've never been able to transcend the feeling of being an individual. Not meditation, not Psilocybin, and not LSD ever made me feel like I was part of something more than me
Same.
Until ayahuasca.
The rest of the psychs were childs play in respect of enlightenment, for me.
Good luck.
aya blew my world together 10 yrs ago
I’m glad someone recorded this!
And yet, Alan Watts was a recluse
I realize whoever published this probably feels they want to add a cinematic effect, but I'd say most people that like Alan Watts would love to hear this without blaring and distracting music.. Thank you anyway for lowering it a bit in the middle.
Much love 😎
Sometimes I get afraid cause my family think I’m crazy but u know lol can’t stop knowing what u know love yall
Beautiful.
Oh wow, this was just fantastically beautiful! Excellent! 👌🎉 Thank you❤
Experienced the holy spirit years ago, a few drops that entered from the top of me head , about 4 and than each exploded with absolute Ecstasy, never forget it.
Many thanks again for the confirmation that I am on the right path... ❤
Found Alan watts 12 years ago. Neither him or I have left each other.
i found him like 5 years ago but his words are always nearby
It seems like miss half of yourself and never find but you can not avoid of never give up to find it outside the other half
Nothing is a coincidence
It’s not magic, it’s spiritual, you’ve connected with the creator.
Mysticism means your personal identity is transcended. The external world feels like your own body. Everything feels in harmony
The sensation of universal harmony cannot come when it is sought.
It hits you. No doubt about it.
The meaning of being alive is being alive.
Thanks Alan. 25 April 2023.🦋😇🦋🎈🌻🥁🥅🏇🐘🔔☯️
I remember as a child, I once had an out of body experience. I was watching myself wake up, and it was a blissful feeling observing myself. The moment I realized that it's not normal to observe yourself, I snapped back into my own 1st person perspective.
I've thought about this a lot. Maybe it was just a dream, but maybe it was more. Maybe I was able to relax my being into the expansive universe beyond myself. It was fine when I was relaxed but the moment I realized I was living outside myself, I panicked and withdrew into myself. I wonder if I can ever get back there.
me too thats what Im currently trying to get back to, good luck
There's a saying in Zen about "the stink of Enlightenment." It means there is a tendency to turn around, to look back at experiences such as you describe, with nostalgia. I'm not saying you should not remember it since it is proof of a much greater reality, but don't get stuck in the past. When another experience happens it will be different.
@@franceshaas8255 I see. Thank you fro that, I have adhd and struggle really finding that control / focus. Have any advice for that as well? and may God Bless.
VERY precious 🙏
Thanks!
Thank you
2019 I had a NDE and was in a coma for 3 days on a ventilator for a month and a half and had an emergency liver transplant and this happened to me. ❤
Mark, please re-post without the background music. Thank you.

2:14 had to pause, just to say. Why do i feel like the rest of this video is going to be exactly what I feel like every moment of every day.
Neuroscience is catching up to these teachings
I struggle not to feel like a stranger in my own body, most of the time.
I know what you mean, I have the same feeling
Love is honoring the reality as it is: Some people desire to awaken. Some people don't know how to awaken. Some people do not desire to awaken at all is the rhythmic scale of reality at vary degrees.
I believe I got one of these experiences because i felt like he said in the video that i had to tell everyone about it but i was then made fun of and labeled as crazy which I didn't mind because how could they understand what i mean when they hadn't had this experience, words are inadequate to explain what happened, I've never felt as confused and euphoric my entire life. after a while the experience faded and i got very depressed, they said i had a drug induced psychosis, maybe i had but it felt amazing, i couldn't go to sleep because i feared the experience wouldn't be there when i woke up, I don't know what happened but a lot of what he said in this video i have also felt
It’s all part of the process 🙏
¡Qué grande Alan!
I had my first experience when I was about 9 years old. I remembered that I could be anyone else except who I am. That I am me..
Another great video 👍🏻
Great video! Cheers!
Ive had some thoughts i feel no one has had before. Ive thought and philosophised so much that some days i couldnt even sleep. I become wolly aware of the observer, he who sits in-between the lower and higher self. For we are 3d beings, are we not? I could go on and on, i believe i am walking close to razors edge of genuis and insanity.
'Tis a thin, yet relative line, eh?
Maybe share your thoughts; they may engender other's thoughts/actions?
I've had thoughts that no one's had before. They are all my very own thoughts and I'm not sharing them with just anybody. They would think I'm mad, or even crazy. 🤯
@@phoenixrising5088 That's true, abnd I respect your decision. You would, however, be in good company, albeit likely postmortem.
The craziest sounding ideas are likely the only ones which might be useful.
@@Eric-tj3tg sorry, my comment comes with my Scottish sense of humour. I wasn't actually being serious.🤣
@darthvader8253 I wasn't actually being serious. My comment came from my Scottish/British sense of humour.
JAN 1ST 2020 woke up with a bang.
3 years ago broke up with 10year relationship,sitting home alone with energy that used to go to fighting,explaning...accidently open watts,after some 20min,such happynes,explosion of energy...cca 8min was looking trought out windom with completly "cant even say view"without words,such sensation like floating,without any weight. "Where do you go if you allready there"

-Mystical Mind-Allan Watts- “Very Weird Very Absurd”
2017 when I was trying to learn councious dreams, then I had my first out of body experience. For at least 2 weeks after that I felt so differen, like I would be looking through someone elses eyes. I had to share with my parents friends that there is life after dead, I felt like I would be not human anymore just someone else like alien out of space sent on earth so weird feeling. Like I immediately gained knowledge not in words so then I didn't even know how to explain that to others. I had to stop talking about this as people at work started looking at me in a strange way😅 Be careful to whom you are telling about this. Thanks to Allan I understood what had happened and he talk about this so beautifully.
Been happening to me since birth- 61 years. I have never felt like I belong here
I believe Alan speaks about being confident in what you do but explained it like to a 3 years old :)
Thank you for sharing s nice video
Could this be the exact reason I always feel, ( no matter where I try to settle in one place ), as if I have just been dropped off into nowhere ? Is this why I
always feel closer to animals and nature, as apposed to people ? 🤔😐🐎🐘 Very grateful 🌎🌍🌏
Same, when i feel most content is alone in the wild. It's so healing, and brings you back to you. So in love with this place we call home.
Same feeling i thought i am the only one

Would people agree in the comments, that if you are not conscious of this feeling that you are stuck in the illusion of your own importance, identity and search for meaning?
I'd give my right eye to feel this, but paradoxically, that means I likely never will experience this.
Happened to me in Winter of 2006.
Was on a business trip, driving alone very early morning, light snowfall, no one else on road...out of nowhere had an out-of-body experience where i was floating above a large valley of wheat.
There was a presence like some sort of wind blowing around, over, and through me and moving the field below me.
It felt like something whispered a secret to me that removed all my anxieties and desires..
I felt as One with everything and started weeping uncontrollably.
All of a sudden im driving again...
One cup of coffee and a numinous experience triggered by solitude of early light, snow falling, etc...
Still makes me tear up
Awaken...
its okay to be overwhelmed by what is its always going to be a great suprise to itself thats wht makes it worth while. the only truth you need is that it takes nothing to have someing and you just get it.
After this experience, the synchronicity becomes unbelievable! The universe starts showing you things and the more you learn, the more it happens. Just beware of darkness.
Why, Why, Why the need to put music to this man’s brilliant mind. His mind is music !
Yes, people don't understand that they are creating a discordant vibe with music. No music or very low is best
If you see eternity what's the rush?
Does anyone know the song that starts at 2:57?
We are exposed to the actual truth through all things. In the end it is *up to us* to find the path. Reality doesn't bend around us, that is selfishness. One must see the root and route of the stream

I did wake up in 1997, I was 31 year.
I died for over 2 minutes and it's the best thing ever happened to me.
Before I was all about Money and job, big Tv and so on.
After I did feel alone in the world, because I was changed.
I now was hating money and most people....Sorry good people..
It was about nature and animals.
I do wish you all the best.
Everything happens for a reason..
I always thought that as a child
Did you. 😁

Once you attain it, if you cannot let it go? You will never find what is really the end goal.
One must use methods to get to “the end goal”. All methods are traps but the method is still essential, however, it is key to not get caught in the method as I previously stated, all methods are traps. It seems you understand, but your message is too simple, it will seem complicated to those that do not already understand. If you wish to help others see, you may want to consider making what you say a bit more complicated so it seems simpler to them, if that makes sense to you 🙏

Being in tune is that important? Maybe so. Strenght I know!
Life is beautiful. What more would you want
once realised... for it to never end
It's a gift that this life ends. I for one am looking forward to moving on.
@@deadreckoning6288 that sounds a bit worrying. Hope you are ok
Not for me. You heard what Alan said, if you must say it is beautiful than it is a lie.
Alan talks a lot of contradictions @@donsandrano1429
I always love it when Alan calls things absurd, its fucking funny to me because it is absurd and he says ot so plainly like yes. We are all insane people lol!
The music detracted from the message. It was not necessary to have the backing music that was a distraction.

As A Course in Miracles states (paraphrased): Absolute Reality - Truth - cannot be described or explained, but must be experienced. A universal theology is impossible. But a universal experience is not only possible, but necessary. The biblical prophet Elijah has returned, as prophesied, and testifies.
…the faster you understand „amor fati“…you are on your way!
True - But does all that not fu*k up 'The Game' experience?
