I played this to my 9 year old son. It's great to watch him absorb these ideas.. You can almost see his mind expanding. Anyone who has kids should share this with them! Love Alan watts.. I must have listened to hundreds of his lectures
I asked my mom at 5 y.o why Are we here? She replied "to play" i still remember it was yesterday
@@Matty94 that fucking awesome
Hopefully he’ll be an atheist just like daddy
@@realMelonTusk There always has to be a Redditor lmao
@@praise7925 redditors are malding 24/7 and it’s great entertainment.
Life is just a dream...death is just an illusion. The ultimate truth is Consciousness. And there is only one consciousness of which we are all a part.
This
Oh yea. This
is it odd that, that actual statement scares me? not to where I'm afraid but I start to doubt reality and for whatever reason I become distant unconsciously to protect myself. because I don't know what other people think? it is something that gives me anxiety for days at a time.
I agree with you Charles Micheal
Charles Michael it's but not true at the same time
This has to be the deepest thing I have ever heard.
This explanation adopted from Vedas. If you listen Alan's other audios you will know.
You should listen to some of his other lectures. He's absolutely amazing
It is
@@akkoXD this is the best it has a longer version called when masks fall I think it's a way of trying to explain Hinduism
😀
I've had a few psychdelic trips where I feel like God, like I'm finding out this reality is just my own creation and all my problems are also my creations. And if I want a better life I need only focus towards it and I can achieve it.
Gain an understanding of yourself before you use psychedelics.
Without that foundation, you will not gain any perspective.
Yes..
Yes, you can.
And, it works.
There is only one present, beside other presents.
Not ahead, or behind, other presents, those are illusions.
BESIDE.
Every moment you slip to the side, and reality collapses around you.
Probability becomes Possibility becomes Reality, the current present.
That ahead and behind is to the side, there is no ahead or behind.
When you take that step "forward", collapse that probability, it collapses and becomes in that direction.
The "past", insofar as it exists, is mutable, and is always collapsing to arrive at the current present.
You manifest laterally, to the current present, and the illusion of the behind and ahead collapses again.
It need only lead to the probabilities of the Current present.
Probabilities of 'previous'(other/beside) presents need not be referenced.
Mutable.
so if we are God why would alan be telling me?
We/God dream up infinite countless adventures within ourselves to keep us infinitely amused.
It is a most exquisitely ingenius and magnificent game that we are playing with ourselves.
To experience being something other than the infinite creator of all things that we ARE...
The adventure of it. There's nothing quite like it you know!
It's absolutely genius!
Pat yourself on the back!
You smart Alec you!
The essence of the heroic mushroom trip.
prove it
Dougie Quick there’s nothing to prove to anyone if you believe in it good if not move along and believe what you want.
Its hindu religion
It's not for the sake of amusement. The demons of lust and desire spawn from Vishnu's ear and Brahma gets Shakti to release her power which keeps Vishnu in deep sleep so that he will awaken and defeat the demons upon which he returns to the state of deep sleep prior to creation.
He is genuinely incredible
When we wake up out of a dream, we realize, well that it was just a dream.
As we dream, we think this is real.
Even if you fly in your dreams and strange things happen that outbounds the rules of physics, your mind still will keep this as the ultimate reality.
When you wake up, you are sometimes sad, you are sometimes happy that it ended and you realize it all was just a made up "thing". But then again there one can realize the power of the illusionary mind. The mind can create worlds for you to life in with persons and events that can think, act and behave as normal and you would believe it as reality itself. Now comes the fun part:
The dream you are living in is quite almost the same as the one you dreaming at night, its just a bit longer.
nicely phrased
SaithMasu12 but if this is true why do you forget about it
@@locky4067 why do you forget certain dreams you've had through your life
Expect if you go lucid in your dream. (It's called lucid dreaming)
@@locky4067 so we can experience things that we want to experience again, as if it's new to us and the first time we experience a dream.
To dumb it down for some of you helmet wearers, "Eventually in GTA you get tired of blowing stuff up, running people over with fast cars and planes, getting head in the alleys, etc, till the point you say fuck it and continue on with the missions"
You can't beat a bit of head on a computer game it fells so good!
lol thats such a funny analogy!!! awesome bro! we've all had fun getting 6 wanted stars hahaha!
I’ve always thought of gta as a reality like ours, every system benefits rockstar just like the bankers and government. Oh and our so called reality is a matrix. What you hold in your mind always manifests.
Brilliant analogy.
😂 Love it
My mind just exploded with a never ending grin.
Since I'm god I ll chose to kiss you in ont next life
Are you alive?
after years of listening to alan watts what he says in this video is probably my favorite out of everything hes ever stated
Same here. I'm guessing it's because it is just the truth, but we will never allow ourselves to fully know it. Otherwise the whole thing would be ruined. Just like someone spoiling a movie, or even the actors in the movies being like "well it's just all fake, it's all play; so we might as well stop it". Imagine Russel Crowe doing that during Gladiator, we would have never had the beautiful story. It's all drama and for as long as we're alive, we will be inclined to be involved in it. Maybe, from the moment we die, we will immediately realise how silly and beautiful it all actually is. Like quitting a video game and returning back to you peaceful room, where everything is just fine and there is no danger whatsoever.
This man was a genius! I can sit and listen to him for hours.
ever dream you were awake, felt very awake, then realized, whoa, I am still dreaming?
welcome to lucidity
Just woke up from a dream and this happend. I'm a lucid dreamer sometimes. It really is fascinating
-@@goodrapgod5595 welcome bro, you gettin' woke
This theory is called “the splendor of Recognition”
My favorite video of all time this is how I discovered spirituality . I love Alan watts
dude. im in fucking tears. this is so good
This video brought on a spiritual awakening last summer. it could make me cry that I just found it!
Blessings.
No other speaker have moved me like him, awoken deeper thoughts.
Brilliant video. What a fun way to look at life
"A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities"
What if one day you randomly wake up as a baby and realise that your whole life was just a dream?
I would cry on and off until I am raised to forget that dream
A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities" im trying to understand but dont get it but hey ....not understanding is key
Glory Paredes ;)
perhaps we have already died, and in that instant have replayed our life. The life you think you are living now. And when this recount gets to the death it flashbacks and starts all over again, and again...
Anything is possible. Any idea has as much validity and absurdity as any other. But I'm glad to be here reliving/experiencing life.
What if someday randomly you just die and then nothing happens? What if you die and then be born again in another life? What if you die and then you notice this was just a computer simulation? what if? what if? what if? What if you are just lying to yourself only because you can not find the answer?!
She was the dream.
She was the emptiness I found within myself.
She was the parts of me I wanted to forget.
She was the help that never came.
She was the hope that doesn't remain.
She was all but everything.
She is the pain that doesn't end.
Consciousness is a reality I no longer want to take part of. I would rather sleep and let my dreams dictate reality. Even if nightmares, they are fare better than feeling empty & alone.
You probably have more connections to people than you realise, hope a year has got you feeling better.
So in another life, you could be living the life that you dreamt of in another life? Crazyyy
This is the most deep and beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. I’m literally in tears
I'm watching this movie over and over again. It's just so powerful and it moves me deeply
What if I chose to; during the 70 year dream, to dream another 70 year dream, every night of that dream, and so on and so on. Before I knew it, I would be in multiple upon multiple dreams, one within another within another. Now waking up from the original 8 hour dream, would that collapse all other dreams within that certain set? Or would you just continue outward like dominoes. Are we part of a never ending cycle of dreams, all coming from the original dream maker? ...... Nah .. silly rabbit, That is the movie "Inception" .. or is it???
Define "dream". I think it is a poor word to use because it made you doubt yourself. Perhaps we are not in fact "dreaming", but rather existing in a never ending cycle of "lives". Basically, there's no difference between a dream and reality. At least we are not able to tell the difference.
like mirrors facing one another
Thx Alan...You are not here in physical but you are making alot of people wiser and strong 🙏
God is eternal and blissful. What fun is that? - Being aware that all that exists is you. So god made himself appear as a dream - an illusion. He did so to forget himself ..to forget who he is...to forget that he is eternal. This makes life exciting..thrilling ...having a limited life with death in your mind - this makes experiences feel worth it...we make it count. This is what life is. To forget who you are. But one day you wake up and realize what it all is. I’m at a time now in my life where I enjoy this play but always know that it is all but just a playful dream.
brilliant visual edit, no copywriter should take that down, Alan Watts - more like a wizard than a philosopher, maybe the deepest...
I honestly cried when I watched this.
It was quite the revelation.
Reality Is Wrong, Dreams are real. Nobody can take your dreams away from you! ❤️
This is explains why the most realistic dreams can be the most powerful dreams and give you a huge sense of reality check when you wake up
TJOP you did a beautiful job illustrating Alan Watts' voice in this. This was perfect. This brought me so much peace and joy tonight. Thank you. I found you by way of Heather Noёll's The Giving Game. ♥.
A good while ago I went through a dark time I'm my life , so dark that no dreams at night were better than the daytime experience. After some time the problems that I had during the day ended but a feeling of guilt snuck up on my mind and when the days kept getting calmer and nicer my dreams kept getting darker and more horrible, so horrible that every day I woke up for 6 months I would say to myself having just woke up: I'm so relieved this was just another dream. After some time during those months life was so calm that it began to look like a dream and the horrible dreams reminded me of the past reality. It never escaped me. It made me think that life is not real if you are not suffering. Now I am mostly ok . Many years have passed and my dreams are peaceful and my life is as calm as I want to see it.
A great point of view with a great video! It' the 3rd time I listened to it and only now I payed attention to it and understood it ! BEAUTIFUL !!
The movie "Inception" was fueled off this.. Beautiful!!! open your mind is to live!!! I love his thoughts and teachings
This gives me the chills
No words to how much i love this... Thanks for feeding my ego. 😄
I hope people understand that this is a metaphor. Alan Watts isn't talking about God in the sense of being able to control everything and being able to will things into existence. Some quacks like Deepak Chopra have taking this pantheistic idea of God and claim that you have supernatural powers. This isn't what Alan Watts is saying. Think about how we as a people always want control of everything. We want to be God in the sense of having control of everything and making everything go right but the problem with that is that life would be incredibly boring if we lived forever and we were always happy. So then we think about how we would love to live an adventurous life filled with danger but then even that would become boring because if you always slay the dragon then there is no sense of danger it's just you always slaying the dragon. Then we have the actual reality that we exist in. We can die, we can lose all our money we can experience the worst pain imaginable but this is what makes life so amazing. The fact that we can have such intense experiences that can make us cry, make us scared, and make us happy. We are God and there is no external reality because there is just this universe and not some sort of afterlife like heaven or hell. We are the ultimate reality because we are the universe.
Chopra is no "quack". All of his theories are backed by scientific facts. He is merely trying to help open our minds to the limitless potential that exists within us. If you ever actually read any of his work you would know that. None of his work has mislead me into thinking I have super powers. It is a proven fact that meditation can slow the effects of aging, if our minds were conditioned to be used to their full potential instead of being constantly told that we are incapable and that we are so weak and limited. Perhaps we could heal ourselves. Narrow-minded people like you ensure that we never move forward because you put limitations on yourself that don't have to exist. Anything is possible. There are things I read about in his 1993 book about Quantum Healing that scientists are proving true today. Is that 'quackery' to you? Sometimes a little faith and positivity is all it takes to give you that extra edge. Cancer patients with negative attitudes are far less likely to survive than those who stay positive. is that quackery or do you think our outlook may play a small role in our body's effectiveness at healing?
Tyler Robison "Quantum Healing" Yeah if you were to ask any actual scientist about quantum healing they would tell you Chopra has no understanding of quantum physics. In fact look at the video where Leonard Mlodino the actual physicist is talking to Deepak Chopra. Look Deepak Chopra is just a quack that wants to sell his new age views and he tries to put them under the guise of quantum physics so that it sounds scientific and backed up by science but it's not. You're not going to find any physicist agree with the stuff he has to say because it's not anything rooted in reality.
I agree that cancer patients are more likely to survive if they stay positive but that doesn't mean that positivity is the cure for cancer. All it shows is that we just shouldn't give up hope if things are looking down.
He clearly shows signs of aging and he doesn't seem to be any kind of expert of reversing aging. It's not going to be Deepak Chopra that finds the cure to aging less it's going to be western medicine.
who knows
A truely spiritual person does not namecall another spiritual person. The ego does that.
AirFiveR only a spirtual person talk about the ego
Alan Watts, you are so very loved... thank you brother for this gift. I know you can hear me- you have brought such beautiful clarity and peace to this infinite existence in which we all believe we are wretched limited beings...
so how do you know this alan if theres only one person dreaming?
I don't know what to make of this, or life. It's scant comfort if you're unhappy, as I have been for years and years. Paint on the face. Then you watch this, and even if this is chosen, it doesn't compensate. I'm still stuck here, living this, possibly for another 50 years for me. The only thing left are my parents whom I love, but they will get taken. Then I am left alone in a meaningless world. I feel like I want to go home somewhere, I dont know where it is. All the while we have to watch those living the fantastic reality, the famous, the attractive, the wealthy. While others get "lessons". Winners have more fun, and human nature means they stamp on your face while doing it. Even if we begin again, its not me. It's someone else. Life must be even worse for the disabled etc. The more I study Alan Watts, I am struck by the truth, but I also am struck by the unfairness of the world, and the pain of having to experience the world inside this perspective as opposed to another's. Some lives aren't much fun to lead.
We live for the small moments. We live to be memories. I two live a weird life ,filled with interesting stuff that I cannot do anything to change or control to have for myself. You will always depend on another's opinion of you. You must instead learn not to be afraid of loneliness. I've fallen in love as many times as I've been refused. But has it ever been really hard ? No, not really. I'm 27 now and afraid that I don't know how what and why do anything next. It's like I've tasted chocolate only once and I crave it until I die. Could I love without it ? Yes . No doubt. But life is so much more interesting when you suffer for everything. You're just clinging on to people. You must find feelings and memories. New dreams. Do you think you know yourself that much to say that you were meant to have a clear path? Would you take it if it was that clear and concise? Wouldn't it be more fun just to take another small step in the wrong way. Just out of curiosity.
rafer Jefferson iii There is no coin with only one side. There's nothing which does not have an end. You're time will come if you know who you are.
I thought of this theory too! damn it really means something to hear it from someone well known.
Now I see my Life and The Reality in a Diffrent Way. Thanks!
He explained it in a wonderful way really ... his presentation skills are beautiful as he said he is an entertainer i wish he was my math or science teacher
Particles can be in two places at the same time. In its totality, therefore, nature is dual. None of its components can only be considered as a particle or as a wave. To understand this fact, Niels Bohr introduced in 1923 the Complementarity Principle: simply put, every component in nature has a particle, as well as a wavelike character, and it depends only on the observer which character he sees at any given time. What if? When we sleep a part of us goes some where else or to multiple places,which in part produces some of our rather odd dreams,the mind wandering the existence when its free to do so when we sleep,rather than just playing back a contrivance of previously experienced events. Just wondering for now,just a thought,all be it a bit of an odd thought.Taking a trip but never leaving the farm (so to speak). Thinking of you.

starview1 what if real life is dreaming? But the only way to dream is to stay alive in this universe. Maybe animals know this already but they can't tell us.
What is your definition of mind in this case? If its our brain then no it does not travel anywhere else we dream. But our consciousness now thats interesting. We are dictated by Our superconscious aka unconscious mind, (I believe it should be called superconscious rather than unconscious because it dictates our lives)
So God is inside each of us-- as manifestations of the one conscious universe. We spend our time distracting ourselves with all the human created definitions/labels of what "I" am----a doctor, lawyer, priest, trashman, good, bad, loser, winner, atheist, catholic, buddha, a success, failure and miss that which is inside of us all along=loved by God for no reason except we are his/her/its child. Buddhism calls it emptiness or shedding all the thoughts and finally we get down to the bottom of the empty cup=our true self=a piece of God. Boy this takes a lot of pressure off and makes life just happen naturally. Thanks Alan, Buddhas, Hindus, Taoists, Christians, Muslims and all others I think all have one common thread underneath the human defined parts ;) The present moment void of any human ideas/content/thought/definition=God.
This as close as it gets. But it’s even more fantastically not close.
Excellent work.
I have day dreamed consistently another world since I was a child. It is and has been as watts describes. And as a grown man, I do less dreaming and more engaging with where I am.
Gorgeous video to accompany Alan Watt's discourse.
Alan Watts is my role-model.
his voice makes it all the more soothing
This speech has really helped me understand both sides of the Goddess. Why She began all this creation and why it is by Her grace that we awaken.
Breathtaking
Thank you, Mr. Watts.
Love this. Thank you for sharing!!!!!
I will go for it. From today... ❤️ Thank you for great speak.
I've always thought to myself it was like this, now I heard it and someone else.
The basis of creation is indeed Boredom. True: God got bored being alone and so It created fractals of Itself who embodied and believed they are human beings: with no memory of their Divine Spiritual Origins and hence the adventure began to this very day.
An absolutely magnificent video. Thank you so much.
About 10 years ago this came up as an add for me and it was my first into to Allan Watts. Still today I love it.
"And finally you would finally dream where you are now" 2:52 This quote was especially startling to me as the video started playing a clip of a car driving the down the main road of the suburb I live in. Literally where I am now.
If you could answer, where did you get that video TJOP?
I get it totally, but for some reason when i fully went inside myself and thought 'i am God', it scared the shit out of me. The only way i can accept it after dwelling on it and going over it so many times in my head is that i was seeing it through my eye's as an individual and it was confusing. How can we be lonely if there was never anyone else, and how can we have fear, if we are capable of creating it, we are capable of eliminating it also.

Resonation.
I have been reading and listening to this man for almost fifty years, always with the hope that eventually, he will get to the (any) point, say something new or evocative or revelatory. I am still waiting. I am always left with the same question running through my mind...And?
only the One within you can answer that.
Wonderful thinking.
Thank you. Thanks Alan.
Im going to resign after this. Just so you know
+littleAlex44 Did you end up resigning?
+gcola12 Yes. He also got divorced and pays child support.
I love these videos
life is an april fools joke that got taken to sirious
This video, together with lots of the comments here, sums it all up. Of course the implications of the idea behind this video (and behind Alan Watts' philosophy) will upset many who have other idea's about life, reality, the after life, etc., but that's just because you have already reached the exciting part of your dream, while 'they' are still acting out the introduction. By the way, the vast and overwhelming implications of the idea that there is no real reality are only a problem for that part of you that 'needs to know', that bases its choices/actions upon facts and knowledge; that's why you can only get to the exciting, fulfilling part of your dream by following the desires of your heart :-)
up to 00:34 is what God intended for us, and what evil has robbed of us. No blood ever has to be shed (simply God's way of saying you can't have anything without them) for life to be perfect. Heaven, the utopia that God created for us is right here. And the cost for this gift is nothing but a stipulation, in order that we may maintain and keep it!
Omg imagine if what we see now is just a dream and when we dream we are dreaming within a dream
So deep and beautiful🙏
Interesting point of view.....
Thank you so much for painting and sharing this idea!
Excellent video, thanks for posting, much appreciated : )
boss battles - one of the primary contemplations of the philosopher type
i can dig it. oh lord, how i can dig it so.
Alan Watts really knew. He’s the only person I’ve heard that really understood what it’s all about.
Awesome.. ❣️❣️❣️🙂that’s true. God created all of this / us little gods and goddesses, because in a sense he would b lonely / there would b no purpose just to exist. We r his fuel ...
I remember after my OBE I was in Heaven with our creator in pure bliss ... didn’t want to come back. Was told that I have to. After a while I had a profound realization - I thought - would I b happy sitting on this throne in this bliss with powerful heavenly music and love doing nothing?? Being in this extasy all the time?
And realized - It was an Epiphany that - o God I said - I would b so bored after a while... lol
🙂❣️😘😘
This is Awesome, video! Works almost perfectly with the content that alan watts said. Thanks you! ; )
Reality is a state of mind and state of mind is reality. And what can be more real than reality?
Please keep going. Actuality maybe, as cliche as that sounds.
All that I am
Is that which I am
And that which I am is I
And whatever I am
I'll be what I am
The infinite, eternal I
His laugh ;D haha yes. Just yes.
If possible, I would dream for all eternity where there is no dreaming. Perfect bliss of nothingness.
Yes please :^)
Hey +neppermint, I was waiting for your update from your Sunday post. Hope all is well. :^)
Mike G Indeed. I responded when I was very drunk. I've been headed down to the bottom for the last 22 years and have decided that it is time to start the ascend. The past is holding me in misery, it is time to start moving forward and up.
Your post linked me to this video at a very uncanny moment. I've started to notice over the last two years a lot of synchronicities. I always chalked them up to simple coincidences and ignored them. The more I become aware of my reality the more open I am to the possibility that this world isn't what it appears to be.
I am starting to finally see the indoctrination and propaganda in our societies that have generally been misguiding us for the last 5700+ years. I am more inclined to believe that this reality is a deception and or illusion. That is what originally brought me to this video.
The only thing I am certain about is my consciousness. Everything else is open to interpretation. I have been taught by my parents and our social structure that if you can see it or science can prove it then it most be real. But if the people who created said science are lying or have twisted the truth due to an all controlling oligarchy then who is to say what is real and what is not?
A great deal of our knowledge has been warped. How much do we really know? I know what the ruling class wants me to know. The same goes for my parents. I was a blank slate coming in to this world like everyone else. When I tried to show my true colors society shot me down and imprinted the ruling classes ideals on me.
I use to see energy beings as a child. Science deems that impossible while religion deems them demonic or angelic in nature. I say they're life forms. We are kept from developing this skill for one reason or another and eventually most forget how to use said ability. Those life forms have always been on the edge of my consciousness keeping me curious. I can no longer accept that something I was born with is considered evil or none existent. I know what I saw. Those things are very vibrant in my memory.
While I was drinking I was losing hope and was about ready to just let it go. And then your post showed up linking to this video. I thank you for bringing me back from the edge. I cannot leave yet, I have to stay here for my family. Even if they are just a reflection of my self. Whether that is true or not I do not know, but it makes more sense to me then a lot of things science tries to indoctrinate you with.
Take care Mike; and thank you again. I needed You that night and you delivered.
Mike G
If you like we can add each other to the Google+ circle and chat through the hang out option. You won't have to worry about prying eyes, at least not from the average Joe/Jane.
Unfortunately the internet was created to weed out trouble makers. We are data mined (spied on) whether it be RUclips, Yahoo mail, a porn site, Toys R Us or some private website.
All our phone calls are monitored as well as spending habits, medical, education, likes and dislikes. They essentially know who we are, what we are and what we like doing along with the patterns of our daily lives.
We have RFID or rather tracking chips in our cell phones, credit cards and various other sources. The average 4 way stop light in my home town has 6 cameras. Most stores are layered in cameras and now they are convincing people to install cameras in their own homes. My Uncle did it for his "protection."
They are installing smart meters all over the country. These meters have the capacity to monitor and turn on and off equipment in side the house at the push of a couple buttons. You could also script a monitoring computer to do all of this automatically thus cutting the human element out completely. Spending too much time watering? Your water gets shut off and you are fined. Reading something the people in power don't want you to read? Your connection is lost or the television/monitor is shut off.
In short Big Brother is quite real. It has slowly been introduced over the years. A lot are either in denial or oblivious to the system. Some accept it and others don't see a way to stop it.
This system has been in the works for nearly 6,000 years. The ruling class has been fulfilling Bible prophecy. I cannot tell if Armageddon is being fulfilled through the media or if there will be a limited nuclear exchange in the future.
Or perhaps something natural occurs every few thousand years that is predictable but the ruling class has kept it a secret from us in order to control us. It would be like a shaman or elder that knows that angry fire God coming from the heavens is just a falling rock. But his people don't know that so he uses there fear and ignorance against them to further his goals.
The United States, Britain, Rome and various other empires are nothing more then tools for the ruling class. They all belong to the same group that has been ruling us for thousands of years. Maybe longer but they stop the history at a certain point so its nigh impossible to figure out. I can't tell if the world is being slowly turned in to a single empire over thousands of years. Or if the earth is already the empire the ruling class desires. Keep us separated by Nations, Races, Religions and a plethora of other methods.
The major religions look to all be the same religion. But with enough indoctrination and changing of the scriptures they have convinced the majority that their religions are unique. Thus creating segregation and very dangerous numbers of fanaticals in each group. It is actually an ingenious system to keep the control to a *_very, very, VERY_* small number of people in power.
Serene Spring In Hinduism God sleeps for an eternity before he wakes up and then he plays life for 100 years of Brahma and sleeps again for an eternity but then he wakes up again.
Brilliant
I cannot explain how attractive in all way, always Alan is.
I am in love.
Ok, I sound crazy.....
what is the song that starts at 2:50?
Do you know the answer? Cuz i am looking for 1 year now @hiimphishy
"Reality"--- I came across this word many times reading the other comments without coming to a final conclusion to what that is....
Hope I can have a conversation with Alan, it's interesting.
This is another idea to unconsciously play with until the pieces fall together one day and I fully and deeply understand
This is why i don't take life seriously enough
Great video.
I find it fascinating that Microsoft used this talk from Alan Watts in the new Xbox commercial that will be released next year.
Beautiful video!
I heard this in October 2013 and then turned down a medical school acceptance because I was so miserable. Never looked back
How are you doing rn man
To postulate that God "gets bored" would be to project our own human emotions onto him/her/it.
According to Alan Watts, everyone is a god head in the universe, only we don't know it. He's not speaking of the Christian god or anything.
And yet, the notion of a god is a human idea. So to postulate that we are only human beings is counter-intuitive to the notion of a god.

It's interesting that we project our human emotions onto God.

I know someone who went to Burma for 6 months to become a monk. He has a blog called "fratty monk", if you care to check it out and read his experience becoming an ordained monk. Anyways, he says that the master monks will talk about how the real power is what's right in front of you, staring you in the face. It seemed like colorful and cryptic language until he had a moment while meditating, that lasted for about 10 seconds, where he felt that oneness and bliss. Where he was part of the mountains miles away.
I think it's interesting that this is a real phenomenon, recorded by many people, yet it doesn't get any attention. It also begs the thought that this is the existence that these master monks spend most of their time in. What that feels like is impossible for me to imagine.

Check out Robert Monroe and William Buhlman on RUclips. William Buhlman is a student of Robert Monroe and has 30 years experience in self-initiated Out of Body experiences. He has written three books so far about his experiences. He is now an instructor at The Monroe Institute.
