Alan Wilson Watts was a British philosopher, writer and speaker known for interpreting and popularizing Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism for a Western audience.
Wow! Great message
Amazing.
Thank you for these incredible videos
the closest english speaking word that I can find to mean "zen" is "flow"
Wu Wei and Satori also guide the way 🌌☯️🌌 Not English words, but as to help in the understanding.
Attention
@@9one9Music zen is not an understanding, to me. It is a state of being. and it is not static. It can't be pinned down to one definition. It is, to each, a unique experience in this now moment. undefinable. Ever flowing into now
All I could think of was the phrase of being in the zone.
Edit: but being in the zone actually is contrary to what Watts is saying here overall, because the phrase is so specific that it refers to ignoring a lot and cutting a lot of things out.
Zen is short for sarzen I'm pretty sure, sar means seated or sitting and zen means meditation so seated meditation.
Vibrations lead to resonance, which in turn leads to Knowledge. Knowledge to reason. Reason leads to judgment, and judgment leads to will and will leads to wisdom and compassion. Wisdom and compassion lead to the ultimate state of the FULLNESS = ZEN = DIVINE WILL.
Thank you 💞
If you try to catch it, it will elude you.
If you stop trying, like REALLY stop trying, somehow it magically appears.
@@vision3691 sounds like how subatomic particles behave once they are being observed ... electrons behave as waves when they're not observed .. f you try to catch them (measure it) I will elude you ..
It's like trying really hard to go to sleep. Only when you stop trying do you finally fall asleep.
@@JazzzMonsterr and sometimes you don’t lol
I don't understand.
If I don't try to catch it but rather stop trying to-
I will obtain it?
that feels like a paradox...
could you help me understand?
It's a wild ...lasts for about 15 sec then it goes! Love it!
This is a superpower.
It's only words & words are all I have.
When a person is curious and asks me what I’m thinking, my immediate response is contemplating
I pray life and joy,
and complete provision
and hope over your life.
I pray good friends,
people who are interested in you, wanting to do life with you,
someone who loves you, cherishes you, to enter your life, and to stay.
I pray you heal and let your defenses down
and that you treat others, and yourself: with kindness
and that you become full of life: to do exciting things
and that even the mundane things
give you life-nourishing happiness.
In Yeshua's name, I pray.
What am I hearing at 8:32?

I enjoy zen principles and generally approach life this way...
finding it harder to do lately though, as I see people pulling this planet through their ...
its torture watching mother nature withering away, raped and pillaged by humans for selfish gain.
I never though I would witness the absolute destruction of this natural word in my lifetime.
Our unique planet, the only one we could find that supports life, doesn't matter how far we send our probes into the cosmos.
Yet civilization doesn't grasp it.
Every day that goes by one more species is closer to extinction at human hands...
how do you approach this malice in a mad world the zen way?
We human actually think that we are mighty enough to destroy this whole planet .. we wouldn't be capable to such task even if we managed to explote all our nuclear power at once ... Give it 50 years 100 years whatever... And this planet would heal so fast .. time runs different for celestial bodies..our " distroction " history will be a blink on earths eyes ...
@@djensoer you're right. she survived previous extinction level disasters. bitter pill to swallow though is that humans that claim to be "intelligent life forms" are busy causing the next one. sad to think of the loss of biodiversity and time it will take to recover...I love these lifeforms that she created and unfortunately starting to despise our species for what they are doing to this planet...
So zen is just who plays the i guy best
✌
When you think about nothing, it becomes something and something then becomes everything.😉
So no conceptual self.
Listening to Alan watts is a lot like reading a national enquirer magazine, some truth mostly bullshit but entertaining nonetheless 😅
The man talks in contradiction. Ive heard him say inattention is attention and then say the total opposite in this video. Im done
That’s because Life is a contradiction one big ass paradox 😂
In other words in not getting attention is attention in itself... try listening to him slowly...allow what he says to sink in...
From of nothing comes something ( stars. We see them cause of nothing - black )
Remember ALWAYS
this process is all about YOU!!!
Not him. He is just a catalyst.
Consider, he may be your twin flame. Look into that.
After initiating your trauma, you're now left to heal all that comes up.
Major advice!!!
Listen closely!!!
NEVER CHASE HIM.
He will run further and you will lose yourself more. You are the feminine.
You just be, and approve who comes along.
It's a yes: you meet my requirements, or: no you do not.
Be clear on what you're accepting as a partner
and DO NOT settle for less
(or you just delay what's meant for you, down the pipeline).
Accept your struggle, anxiety, fear, sadness. Whatever comes up.
It's all human, and in need of your attention.
If you push it away, block it, or run from it...
You will just have to deal with it later...
Twin flames is the idea of two manipulative multilevel marketers.
There a documentary out about it.
I am me and that's all I am ...
And that's I'll ever be is me.
Now you is you and that's all you'll ever be.

I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together... John Lennon
@FreeDom-dh5mf not here. Here we get to explore individuality
@@AIXITstageleft I Am ALL, as an individual.
I could strive to be that, yet I would never be that nor the old I.
Getting lost somewhere between I and that ,
but then again I begun the journey of an other worldly that,
which I never completely be nor the I that begun the journey.

A duck is a duck is a duck-

Sounds like " whoever tells you they understand quantum physics , they don't understand quantum physics "
.
What if they say they understand that they don't understand quantum physics?
It doesn't even understand itself, so much as a none cogniscent mechanism of the universe can have any degree of comprehension of its own function.
"Life is because polarties are. Just that simply" Mr. Alan Watts inspired and taught me to write that, albeit quite small. His vocabulary is the most broad and far reaching that I have ever heard in my nearly 49 years here on this earth. A remarkable, brilliant man.
@@TheDiveWatcher Terrence Mackenna, Alán watt's, ram Dass vocabulary.. wordsmiths
I am you and you are me but only one is the rider and the others is the mule one is the shepherd and the other is the sheep. Maybe that's why a thief immediately recognizes another thief.
Dozen (Of God) is a one word explanation of Zen.
The dodecahedron is Zen as one facet .. IMO
Twelve is used in the Bible dozens of times. In the last supper Jesus shares the time with the complete group of 12. He is the thirteenth sign and complete in himself. Most numbers in the Bible correlate with 12 ie 144,000 is a derivative.
= 12,000 ( example)
12 months of 0ne year
12 signs of zodiac
12 days of Christmas
Etc..
So much time with this knowledge at hand yet it has changed nothing in civilization. I feel as if the universe keeps the chaos that is humanity to teach us.
Universe wants you to acknowledge these things but it’s we poor conditioned human who don’t want to know reality as we are so indulged in dreams of achieving another dream and so on. We are running away from the WHAT IS which is why nothing has changed
I am that what I am.
...language is like tuning a piano with a bulldozer...
Exactly! Unless you are wise enough to understand the paradoxical, be careful what you wish for, especially if you meditate upon earthly desires; otherwise, take into consideration the power of one's own words therein. (as exemplified from the lyrics in the music by Henry Purcell):
"I Attempt From Love's Sickness to fly in vain,
Since I am myself my own fever and pain.
For Love has more power and less mercy than fate,
To make us seek ruin and love those that hate.
The piano sound in the background of the last moments of the video... Please can someone tell me the songs name, I want that as my medication song
Hi. I liked the "driving a car" analogy, it becomes second nature, like flying on "automatic pilot". Habituated thoughts, words, actions, and relationships, that do not need constant conscious monitoring. Like a married couple who've been happily married many years, and don't need to discuss everything, they just "know" what their partner's thinking. They have become "as one" with each other. No stress. "What's for dinner darling?" "FroZEN chicken with froZEN peas. Ah, peas at last. Cheers, P.R.
Dhyana means the combination of focus, concentration, meditation.
No= its not Zen= me...being deluted in my own mind...thats all.
Words use us as much as we use words. This video is an example.
No one is right, and yet everyone is right.
Sheer Awesomeness.

I want to die
I'm in hell
no escape
you need a mission that's greater than you, save a whale from being harpooned by an idiot with "research" on the side of the boat so that he's protected internationally because he's killing whales for "research"...protect something that will bring joy to your life...
@@bengrahamvandersandt2477 When a mind is in turmoil, not understanding itself or the world around it and therefore feeling lost, overwhelmed and depressed, it can certainly distract itself from this turmoil by losing itself in some self-congratulatory "mission", yes. That's the ego wanting an escape and to big itself up again. You should NOT mislead lost minds with this childish escapism and some new subtle form of egotism. Such minds need to stop, calm down, quiet down and observe themselves and their total relationship to the world. Only when a mind is really at peace and understands itself and life can one then help society.
However much you may trick yourself into thinking you're some sort of justice warrior, you're always, in some form or other, going to end up causing more conflict, more problems and making everything worse, however subtly. It's profoundly complex. Don't push your aggressive do-gooder agendas on poor lost minds like that, you're causing more harm than you realize. Be quiet and watch and understand yourself fully before trying to help anyone.
I am concerned about you. Did something really bad happen to you?
@@vision3691apparently and hrs giving up on him and life very sad.
I may sound strange but
Stop trying to scape and everything will be allright❤
Thank you for posting. The piano.
Hi SDACOP. The cardboard box must have been HUGE. How much for postage?. Cheers, P.R.
Hallelujah!!! I’m favored and blessed with $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and also support the work of God and the church.
Oh really? Tell me more!
This is what Ana Graciela Blackwelder does, she has changed my life.
After raising up to 60k trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the US and also paid for my son’s (Oscar) surgery. Glory to God.shalom.
I know Ana Graciela Blackwelder, and I have also had success...
Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Ana Graciela Blackwelder.
I remember when I was deceived and I watched this guy. Shortly after I got saved by Jesus Christ. Repent of your sins and believe in the gospel before it’s too late. This guys is leading you into confusion, call upon the name of Jesus!!
🥱
Wrong room.
Many people used to be you but now are themselves.
Please, cut the music.
Because you never stop talking
He was a lecturer...these are recordings of his seminars and lectures. The vast majority of his life was spent in silence and doing other things, but you don't know anything about that because all your mind knows is these cherry-picked seminar recordings from social media. Pay attention to yourself instead of blundering around judging people you know nothing about except for what you've seen/heard on the internet.
