Sleeping is nice. It's the waking up that kills me...
Ignorance is bliss😢
I agree with this statement
Same here.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dont worry after you die you will sleep forever😂😂😂
To me it's another life. Full of surprises I love sleeping
Likewise.
Sleep is when we return to our home universes.
I had a serious cycling accident in February and passed out due to my injuries. I was awoken around 5 minutes later by a Good Samaritan performing first aid. I have to say it was the best 5 minutes sleep I’ve ever had. I don’t fear death as I had a near death experience and it was beautifully peaceful. My revival and awakening were painful. Six months later I’m still in recovery but making good progress.
Sorry for your plight - hope you're getting decent rest now.
Hey, I am a Nurse and I am glad you're gettting good progress. I wish you well , love , and peace.
Cycling?
@@javadose317 Yes, took a very hard landing having fallen off my Cyclocross (CX) bike. Helmet saved my life but broke my femur and hip. Danger of bleeding out from my femoral artery. Nasty and painful experience.
@@javadose317Yeah it’s where you pump your legs up and down on pedals thus rotating the rear wheel propelling you in a forwards motion. Try it some time it’s a good way of keeping fit but be careful whilst doing it.
The body reorders and heals itself...it take's what time it needs, don't fight it...go with it
When you go to sleep, the mind returns to where it was before you opened your eyes .A different mind lets say ,but its still you .
Makes no sense
@@Xheasor let me try one last time so you will have understanding .
When one is a baby in the womb ,the baby has awareness ,psychiatrists would call this the unconscious mind .
Fair enough .Then after birth and for a little while after it is the same unconscious mind thats in operation .
Now slowly the baby begins to hear the mother talking and in order to grapple with this the baby must learn .
This new learning brings forth a new mind and the unconscious mind fades away .lt is the same, you ,of course but now one begins to talk to oneself ,so much so that you have forgotten that you had an unconscios mind at all ,for now your mind is the conscious mind .
When you sleep the mind goes back again to what it was the unconscious mind .Thats it . Lets hope that that makes sense .
If you see a flaw in this thinking let me know , but bear in mind that this is what they teach to the Oxford graduates and this is how they talk about and differentiate the 2 minds, the unconscious mind and the conscious mind .
Do you believe in the collective unconscious?
@@ShEDDiNgmYSkiN This is what l believe and know .
The Power that sustains Man comes from outside ourself , it strikes us every moment of our lives . This we call Will or lntent or Power or Awareness and it is the consciousness of GOD .This Power is exactly the same Power that is inside ourself ,our consciousness . It can be said that the entire consciousness of Mankind is a unit and does function as a unit but it is also the case that what we may call the collective unconscious is also a unit and can function as a unit . We call the unconscious mind the 2nd attention ,as we call the conscious mind the 1st attention . These are 2 different typesof awareness but it is you who is experiencing both ,i.e. something inside of you is moving from the 1st attention to the 2nd attention .That something is called the Assemblage Point 💚
Life. An unfortunate interruption to sleep.
The sweet ecstasy one feels as they slip from one state to the other so good
It's really the ultimate high
Allan watts is hitting all the right places this morning. I feel like I am being enlightened.
I suffer from high functioning insomnia caused from ADHD. I have to say I follow that slumbering law and just keep going or read something hard. It actually works. Worrying about insomnia makes it worse.
The same truth lies within beLIEving the concept of having ADHD.
Twenty years ago, the term didn't exist, because the man hadn't created it yet. The man who coined the diagnosis has since revealed it was only a made up term.
Free yourself. Know that you are created in the image of the creator, perfect.
What you neeed is a hard labour work I guarantee you will sleep
I am a Nurse. I got that coverd@@armageddon1403
Not even bro. I have injuries
That resulted in lots of nerve pain . I have not been able too sleep in 34 years.
Sleep is the rest we get from our own consciousness. Our brain puts together movies from our stresses, memories, hopes and fears to keep the machine working while we take rest. Body repairs itself as well.
Lucid dreaming is the reason I like to sleep. You can perform magnificent magic during sleep, and those who "can't" or won't sleep thoroughly are really missing out on the window into the soul that is dreaming.
Your arrogant
@@dverygrateful1 Then that would make you jealous.
I've slightly learned how. I can do it maybe once or twice a year. When it does happen, it's the coolest experience you can imagine.
@@ShEDDiNgmYSkiN Awesome. I can say that the more intention you put into it, the more dream-signs that can recognize that reoccur often that you can use to que yourself to become lucid, the more daily affirmations that you "will become lucid if you see_____ in your dreams" or "if I ____ (ex: fly, float down stairways, reappear in elementary school, etc)" the easier it will be to make those experiences exponentially more magical. Good job, keep it up!
@trentp151 I always try to look for those signs in my dreams, but they're usually so hard to find. It's usually the last part of my dream that I start to realize that I can actually control this. I'll lucid dream for like a minute and then wake up. I definitely would like to train my brain to be able to recognize those triggers more often and learn to do it longer.
Sleep is the downloading of your memories to your storage Banks.
I had a Dream where I told the person that was standing next to me I know I'm dreaming and that person gave me the Is such a surprised look? I remember it so vividly.
who was the person? You need to find out.
Trying to go to sleep never works,lying down feel your muscles in your body relax,just lie there,your brain might be working overtime, When this is happening remind your brain you are also relaxing every part of your body, it’s not about going to sleep it’s about relaxing, your mind plays tricks on you and it can’t be trusted all of the time, sometimes you feel like you haven’t had a wink of sleep if your body is relaxed it’s enough strength to get you through the next day however after time and it may take time your mind your brain will follow your relaxed body and then have some peaceful reinvigorating And some sort of reset sleep.
I believe that when we go to sleep we visit different dimensions of our self's and the lives the other self's live no matter how small or different. The solar system is so giganticly big these dimensions can easily fit in space and then there's time which never stops and drives everything living .
We are all asleep all of the time ,we are yet to awaken but we surely will and when we do we will be awake for eternity
Every time this man amazes me in new ways and he's not even alive anymore :(
I have many dreams where I never want to leave from
The best dream is the one you know when it begins, you have total control ova it.
Lucid dreaming yeah.
After mom crossed over my insomnia kept me up for 23 day
You should have recorded that. The record is 18 days and 21 hours.. Sorry to hear about your mom. 💔
I bashed my head on my pillow giving me 10 hours of concussion 😂
I can't sleep like most people. Sometimes i am awake for 2 or 3 days and not even tired. I sleep when my body just gets exhausted ,and i can tell i am falling asleep. It is like i am still awake up to and sometimes after i fall completely to sleep. When i dream i always know it is a dream and that i am asleep. Always aware of it. Most of the time i can control events in my dreams ,and even stop that dream and go into a different dream. can teleport in dreams. Jump for several miles and land without harm. Been like this since i was a small kid. 5 or 6 years old. 60 years old now. everything is the same when it comes to sleep.
Fascinating Thomas, can you tell us more? What do you do in life? How has this pattern helped or hurt you?
Wow. That is high intelligence surely
Sleep is charging the battery ...
What battery? The physical one?
Sleeping is when your self gets out to play without asking for permission.
A Traumatic Brain Injury has me only sleep 2 or less hours out of every 24 for over 30 years now but after all this time maybe I was just trying to Sleep to Hard. Finding Alan Watts has been such a Blessing, Thank You for Sharing 😇
You don't take drugs to help you sleep? If I were in your place I'd be begging for a sedative.
Sometimes I wake up, having not dreamed, but remembering hearing the last couple bits of me talking to myself in my mind, with the most fluent and thought provoking words, and my creativity and visualization in such a state is almost fluid and completely altered compared to how I am when I'm fully awake, I wish I could harness such an ability like that in my wake, maybe it has something to do with the subconscious, but I think I'll keep seeking further..
The only thing worse than having to fall asleep is having to wake up.
I've got really bad anxiety , PTSD and I have severe panic attacks I regularly get sleep paralysis especially when I fall asleep on my back and even when I'm asleep I know I'm dreaming and feel as though I can never turn off because my fight or flight body system is hyper aware and hyper sensitive. Being asleep and knowing your in rem mode but aware and conscious but cannot wake up is sheer terror and even when u do wake yourself up u know u cannot go straight back to sleep because u will go straight back to rem sleep paralysis. So I know I need to sleep on my sides. Yeah it's a nightmare to be honest.
I have nightmare also not easy 🐎💤🛌🕊️
I feel you bro same here till I started antidepressants,every night use to wakeup in terrifying panic attacks and nightmares.take care bro 👍
I get that too bro your not alone 🖤
Thanks!
This man was one of the greatest teachers ever
I practice sleeping and therefore I sleep
Mmm yes… this floor here is made of floor
Excellent video timing of me seeing it upon release impeccable. I'm very much into Freud & Jungs work I don't believe are thoughts mean nothing we dream for many reasons, and I think Mr Alan Watts knew more than he's saying. lol
Im aware im sleeping and im aware something is contacting me. Very tall very bright.
I just discovered your channel. I love it and subscribed. Powerful things to think about as we all have been programmed by family, society, peers, etc. Aligns well with my channel.
I loved this video !
I just found your channel today. Great Videos. Love it !!
Dreaming is, like Life, the best gift we've been given.
Normal perception interprets the world from a single point. While sleeping, perception wanders.
Bliss= no dreams 🙂
I absolutely love the stuff. ❤
beautiful
Well put
Conscious awareness needs to be re-energized.
Not to people who live with Circadian Rythm Disorders... what would you like to know about sleep? Don't have all the answers, but definitely have some.
Sleeping is pretty simple. Just focus on your breathing only.
Damn, this is mind-blowing 🤯
What's interesting about sleep is when you wake and realize you were astral projecting (out of body experience) or seeing a moment in another persons life, then find out that happened.
Can we say for sure if dreaming or being Wake is reality..
interesting question...what we think is the dream state could be reality an reality as we know it could be the dream state
Is there such a word as forgettery? I stayed awake for 21 days once, it was torture I felt terrible. But I did have an amazing out-of-body experience.
I want everybody who sees this to know, that as a person born in a muslim country, I didnt find peace in islam, or any other religion, I didnt have a wise (to any degree) father, and I was lost, badly, I knew muslim and christian philosophers, they couldnt help, psychologists couldnt help, even god (abrahamic) couldnt help. But Alan watts did, when he speaks I am silent, when he's silent, I speak, I am blissed, I want everybody to be blissed as well ❤
I experienced something very similar except I was born into Christianity and when I went searching for truth within my religion, the amount of mental gymnastics I had to do to try and make it make sense is what made me go within. It is there where I found the answers I was looking for. Thx for sharing your experience!
Religion is your weakness and excuse, grow up
Sleep, deep sleep is not out of consciousness, it is just consciousness, it is not absence of experience, it is experience of abscence.
Because when awake we recall a phase where we slept sound, slept like a log, as the phrase says... Then who knows that phase of complete blackness, it is the consciousness...
I like your thought 👍 💤 😴
Really. Do U know what “Hate” does to your reality. peace+&-🎶💥
Sleep is you get older everytime you sleep....facts
But I'm absolutely sick of crazy dreams and nightmares. Really, I'm sick of them.
Try pot took mine away I barley ever have dream
Drugs are not the answer
Weed will take your dreams away. No joke
@@voetballuh488 i know. I used to smoke it.
I don't know about the whole forgetting part, I've essentially created an entire extended universe in my sleep with new stories involving the same characters popping up all the time (or a continuation of previous dreams).
Beautiful .. Zzzz
Sleep is actually mechanism of body control over your/ mine devine nature. It was created by ego. We need to sleep because world created by our ego is flawed and our body which is mechanism of universe reception is flawed too. We can tire, so we need sleep. World is dream too. So we sleep within sleep actually. Sleep will be removed when we will stop identify with our bodies.
Dreaming is the soul
Interesting video. Pertaining to our being conscious, subconscious & super conscious. When we fall asleep we are in the subconscious & we Design the Dream Sequence : A one minute of 4 dreams lasting 15 seconds per dream. The 3rd_ dream is real & serves many functions, mainly Astral Travel / Astro Projection. The 4th_ dream is absurd to ensure that our conscious will pay attention to it & wake up. Once the Dream Sequence is Designed we wait to initiate it. The delta cycle is the best for healing where the brain cycles 10 1/2 cycles per second is optimum.
It makes sense. But in the same note something also makes sense to me. - That the world as stored so many historic milestones, or even every day more and more information is stored thanks to technology milestones. - For example, so many eureca moments have been achieved by humanity already. The road of society as been locked in a historic rush hour, crowded and stored forever, as the good also the bad. - From this perspective, even if you believe in reincarnation for example, i guess its hard to really reset to a actually 'Brand new bright day'.
When you get a little dirt in your eye and all day you try and remove it unsuccessful you tired and fall asleep while asleep that pebble wiggles down your eye so when you finally open your eye said Pebble
Ah! Sleep, little snatches of death.
I have been trying to find out what exactly sleep is for a few years.
Slumber time
Back to my body
Every night when we sleep, our soul leaves our body. Physically we are still alive but really, when we sleep, we die and our soul returns to our body before we are able to wake
Where on earth do you get that idea about the “Soul leaves our body.” That’s interesting. Share, please. peace+&-🎶💥🌸
@@mut8inG 39:42 of the quran
This is 100% true! We commune with sauce, and all of our friends in the Astral!
@@mut8inGit’s true
@@SB-zq4rg BS.
Sometimes I feel my spirit coming
I use rain sounds and stuff like that to calm and put my mind at ease is that okay?
Hello 🤗
@4:17 - bad smells triggers disgust, for survival, not just social conditioning.
😊
The universe is spirit
I love achieving hapnagogia.
What are dreams, sleep is resting recovery. My dreams can be bizarre some nothing. Used to think they were clues trying teach me but nah they a mystery 😮
Who are you, in deep dreamless sleep? 🤔
Not true. Sleep is not spontaneous. I can go to sleep at any time anywhere.
Du u feel me
Sleeping is a physiological process...like breathing, digestion, dessication...try not going to sleep...or not doing any physiological process.
Hello
I have yet to beat my 64 hours without sleeping.
good for you
Most people spend there life's sleeping even while being awake
Maybe reincarnation is forgettery and elimination.
I hate to dream! It brings me back all the bad decisions into my mind! That's why I just want to sleep, totally unconsciously, once my brain becomes active in the background starting to dream and to make plans and so on, i just bounce on my feet i look for something to do... I cannot stand my inner thoughts!
You dream physicality into being awake or asleep since you are an eternal being. Period. Period.
peace+&-. Read or listen to a Seth book, if you dare-on YT by Tim:Unknown Reality is one.🎶💥🌸
Pot helps that I have really bad dreams but when I smoke I don't have them or atleast don't remember
Answer: Missing time.
Since I've been a "professional sleeper" since I was born, I can "try" to go to sleep and i go to sleep
I've heard it's death being shy
Sleep is death in waiting!
3:17 sounds a bit like the stock market and trading.
Psychological and Emotional Repair
Which sleep do you mean, Alan?🤔
Sleep is so that they can reset the program. When you go to sleep the program can purge itself. So when you awake, the system is fresh and you can do it again, without all the cookies and searches bogging us down.
We need sleep because deep sleep produces melatonin which can cure problems throughout the body.
People who think they know it all but don’t even know what they do for roughly 8 hours a day
All organs rest
Ur part of it
By the looks of things I don't think we have a say in anything . It makes more sense that we are part of a interesting game. The other suggestions like religion are way to complicated and messy. ✌️
🚨 Two words, recharging and death ….no need for Alan’s breakdown 🤣🤣🤣🫡🫡
I hate when I’m having a sexual dream and my alarm clock goes off for work just as it’s getting good.. 😢
