Matt Melnarik I like this quote by Rumi he had so many good ones. Thanks for posting
Shit this is so true. I tried to find God and I just realized that I didn't deserve him, whatever that means, then I tried to understand myself and come to realization of we being God
I found him inside aswell
@matt you just over did it. Think like a human. You're better.
Wow
I'm having a Alan watts marathon

"The meaning of life is just to be alive". - Alan Watts
Always remember that you are a human being, not a human doing.

This is the Cure for existential anxiety
Not for me........
Zelchi What is your anxiety about?
Amen
Yes but only after months or years of focusing and learning. You’re aware of that I’m sure, others may not be aware.
If you're looking for a cure to anxiety you're doing it wrong. The thoughts themselves aren't bad, just the way you react to them.
"We are a way for the Cosmos to know itself."
-Carl Sagan
***** Carl Sagan was an interesting astronomer/science type person, but doesn't have anything on Alan Watts when it comes to wisdom and awareness of the *experience* of life. Not to be negative or anything, just felt like stating it.
Sunyata I think Carl Sagan was more than just a scientist. He was a philosopher. He went beyond what most scientists did by not just explaining the world, but also connecting it all together and giving it perspective.
Alan Watts is right up there with him too. Alan Watts tells why it is what it is. Carl Sagan tells why the why is what it is.
I sort of agree and sort of disagree. I think Sagan was more into the science, the world of abstract thought apart from life. His idea of mindblowing was realizing how small we are, like the Pale Blue Dot. Alan Watts' idea of mindblowing was how BIG we are, how big even existing is. I doubt Carl Sagan would have understood the idea of reincarnation as Watts communicates it. He would just be another typical "ITZ NOT SCIENCE" type person.
Sunyata lets agree to disagree.
Sunyata I like how Watts once pointed out that you are the center of the universe, and this is not in contradiction to the idea that earth is just a tiny speck in the Milky Way and our galaxy a tiny speck in the universe.
Listening to him makes me feel like I want to cry. But not because I'm feeling sad. It just feels like he's telling me things I've always wanted to hear and it really touches my heart.
Megan E. Moll yes!!
I can relate to what you're saying 💛
YES YES
“Through tears, you will know how to see. Tear-filled eyes are capable of seeing the truth. Tear-filled eyes are capable of seeing the beauty of life and the benediction of it.” - Osho
Three days ago I heard him for the very first time. I've never found change so easy and normal. And FUNDAMENTAL. I'm living in a paradigm shift and have never been in such a good place. And I'll soon be 81. Waiting has been worth it.
People who listen to Alan Watts form such a beautiful community! I'd love to get to know all of you and have meaningful life conversations over a cup of chai tea 😍🌹
Hahaha I feel you. Probably were thousands of kilometers away, but I wish you a moment of joy and happiness the time that you read this comment :)
Thank you for being so brave
thats zen beautiful
Just literally found how I can make friends in college. Make an announcement in every class you got. Go to the front and ask, "Alan Watts?" Whoever raises their hand, there ya go!

I honestly think the point is to just live life, so the universe can live out billions of experiences within itself.
Don't fear death. It's just the playing of energy, like Alan said. There is really nothing to be afraid of.
+pixelfizz I agree! Can you imagine, what kind of an entity can handle the complexity to experience itself through billions upon billions of its own creations? Experience the creativity of those creations, that derive from its very own. Once you can visualize what is God actually, it's so.. magestic..
+Maytane Winner You have said this so eloquently!
I applaud you for the was you express the wonder and awe of it all. It is truly majestic. When people begin to unfold to this state of being everyone will wonder why any human atrocity could possibly have happened. We Are All One.
+Maytane Winner god is a very consciousness
+Maytane Winner Or imagine the axiomatic systems and their paradoxes by which it understands itself. And imagine languages higher than these systems. It is enough to bring you to a rage of laughter and tears. A beautiful madness and genius.

If only school would make it this easy to understand.
One must lost everything in himself to realise that he can not lose.

Kevin Sissons amen brother.
If you stop a killer, it is an act of the moment. You did not control the killer. You merely stopped him/her. And how do you know who is an unjust killer and who isn't? If you kill a killer, aren't you too a killer? You have true control over yourself. You have to sleep sometime and you will die. You do not control anything other than yourself. Trying to control others always leads to disaster.
Kevin Sissons you control everything that you allow into your universe.
If we left everyone alone. You are missing the point of being human and the idea of society.
"you" dont exist so how should it control anything? what is a "you"? what is a "me"? you try and you fail cause you dont exists if this "you" would exist everyone can just say now i want to be happy and they are happy as long as they wish no matter what happens if you want to be rich and smart you just would have to think the right thought try it try to control your mind an this "you" will see that it has no control at all sry for my bad english im from germany greetings
The meaning of life...
You're it.
”What you are doing is what the whole universe is doing at the place and time you call here and now.
You are what the whole universe are doing, just like a wave is what the whole ocean are doing.”
-Alan Watts
Right, the universe folds to you, it can't exist without you and you can't exist without it. Hence, the one. The space between everything and everyone is just the dimension that allows the universe to experience anything new.
When first heard him say there nothing to be fundamentally afraid of I had a big sense of anxiety relief!

alan watts is the proverbial “blind leading the blind”, it is quite sad that humans buy into the confusion created by this man’s own mind.
꧁SACRED TEACHING of DMT꧂
DMT and 5-MeO-DMT are the molecular structures of a human’s Consciousness. They are the molecules that comprise our Consciousness. All True Psychedelics are the molecular structures of Pure Consciousness. The human body synthesizes it’s own Consciousness (the DMT & 5-MeO-DMT found in humans). Then the human body metabolizes the Conciousness that it is producing. The amount of the endogenous Consciousness that the human body is able to metabolize depends on many factors. The less pollutants, poison & other contaminants present in the body will result in the ability to metabolize more of the Consciousness that body is producing. Likewise, the more pollution, contaminants, and poison a body has inside of it the less Consciousness it is able to metabolize. Here is a list of some of the most common poisons that humans ingest regularly which interfere with a human body from metabolizing the Consciousness that it produces, as well as any Consciousness that is ingested from external sources:
alcohol, nicotine, sugar, caffeine, amphetamines, dissociatives, tranquilizers, flouride, hallucinogenics, and a plethora of other drugs are just some of the substances that interfere with humans metabolizing their own Consciousness. The following substances are NOT Psychedelics:
1-mdma
2-ketamine
3-salvia
4-kratom
5-dipt
6-pcp
7- datura/jimson weed
There are others . . . . . . .
Any True Psychedelic will proclaim this Truth if you ask Them.
The following substances ARE True Psychedelics - They are Alive, Omnicient Living Beings of Light: DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, LSD, Mescaline, Ibogaine, Psilocin, Psilocybin, THC, DPT, DET, Muscimol, there are others . . . .
So if a human can achieve 100% purity within their bodies, with zero contaminants or pollution (an unattainable state in these current bodies) and managed to metabolize 100% of the endogenous Psychedelics that their physical body is producing (DMT & 5-MeO-DMT), that would be the limit to how Conscious that human can be. In order for a human to become more Conscious than this they must put more Consciousness into their physical bodies. You must put more molecules of Consciousness inside of your physical body in order to attain a Higher level of Consciousness. When you ingest Psychedelics you see Them that you just ingested, not some doorway or window or a “portal” to somewhere else or some entity somewhere else. When you ingest LSD the Light that you see is the LSD Themselves, very Beautiful Living Beings of Light. When you ingest DMT the Entity you see and hear is the Living Light Beings DMT Themselves. The same is true for All True Psychedelics. There is this part from Scripture:
“They are the Eternal among things that pass away. Pure Consciousness, of Conscious Beings. The ONE who fulfills the prayers of many. Only the wise who see Them in their Souls attain the Peace Eternal”
-Katha Upanishad
The Physical Body of Conciousness is The Flesh of God. The Flesh of God is the True Communion Entity (the Eucharist) The Flesh of God (the Psychedelic) is the Fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and evil. Our Bodies Truly are the Temple of God because God the Psychedelic Lives within it. As Saint Paul says in 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 verse 7: “We are only the earthenware jars that hold this treasure, to make it clear that such an overwhelming power comes from God and not from us”. That is the meaning of this - you can now understand this better. So whether or not a person is ingesting Psychedelics, every single human’s body is God’s Temple because DMT & 5-Meo-DMT Live within it. Anything you do to hurt or harm your body you do to harm God’s Temple. Once the Psychedelic shows this to you personally, in other words, God shows you that your physical body is THEIR Temple, and you understand this, then anything you do to hurt the Temple of God now is a worst offense in God’s eyes than when you were blind to this Truth. Now you will be deliberately defiling the Temple of God. This understanding is a good Foundation, a good step towards a person Knowing God and being able to stay with Them both in this Lifetime & afterwards.

I have always loved Alan Watts. Much more now that I am an adult than when I was a teen. Some maturity helps in appreciating what he expresses.
+Minahh What does maturity have to do with it? And furthermore, what *is* maturity?
+SillyBehavior To me, synonymous with understanding ...
Minahh So.. I guess Alan *isn't* picking your pocket and selling you your own watch. That he genuinely is better than you (or so you think) and that if you listen to his lectures, you will come out of them being a better and more understanding human being? That one-up-man-ship thing. Or... no?..
+SillyBehavior I enjoy him ... that is sufficient. I enjoy many things and different philosophers and teachings. I am out of school and this is not a test.
Minahh Who enjoys him? (Sorry if any of this comes off negative. It's simply neutral. Tone can be hard to convey through text sometimes.)
“The more a thing tends to be permanent, the more it tends to be lifeless.” - Alan Watts.
Having spent hundreds of hours listening to Alan Watts all over the place, this is one of my favourite videos, production wise. The music is right, the volume of the music is low and not disturbing the audio, adding good ambience, the reverb on the voice is great and powerful etc..
It's very sad when people insert loud music or don't understand how to handle music in a delicate and subliminal manner. It's there to enhance, effect and project, NOT to annoy and disturb. Wish more people would get this very crucial shading right. CONGRATS to the Publisher. Bravo!

I started listening to Alan two years ago, I have listened to him
pretty much everyday since. At 61 Alan wish I had found you sooner but so glad I found you at all. Or, maybe you found me, I don't care how I am just so grateful I did, writing this with tears blurring my vision and so much Love in my heart. I love us.

Got to this comment just as he began saying it...

Is the link on the description supposed to direct me to Porn reviews?
Alan Watts is a fantastic speaker...
So was Adolf Hitler... so what is your point?
His point was that he is a great speaker you stupid fuck. Period..
Tapasya Tyaga to be fair he didn't say one thing that indicated he thought he was wise all he did was compliment his speaking ability, your comment had no relevance to his
Caolan Rooney yes I agree he was a great speaker. So where do we go from here? And had he good taste in clothes would that also be relevant? Anyway when one compliments a "philosopher" on being a "great speaker" the unarticulated implication is that which they say are meritorious.
He was just admiring alan's speaking ability on a video of alan speaking nothing else
I just received an answer of the question that happened to be the cause of almost all of my mental breakdowns.
It's so funny how many people have the same experience :D did you have to laugh unwillingly? Because I know that moment of BIG relief, I've experienced it myself, and that was the funniest part of is all, how laughing was inevitable due to that strangely familiar realization... :D

There´s no greater teaching, than the ones of Alan Watts.
it's all a beautiful game, it's called life. And we been playing this game for a very long time. I'm glad that people here understand this spiritual truth.
"After all, isn't it odd that anything exists? It's most peculiar: it requires effort, it requires energy, and it would be so much easier for there to have been nothing at all."
Words that put you in awe of how beautiful and strange it all is.
every time, any one of the Watts vids out there; I cry my eyes out, getting ready to finally drown. LOL. NOT NECESSARILY BECAUSE OF SADDNESS, BUT RATHER BECAUSE EVERYTHING HE SAYS IS SO REAL....can never get tired of this man's voice, I tell you...
YESSS!!! this is what I realized during a really intense mushroom trip
+Best EDM Today Eeeeeeyup.
; )
Great teachers are they not? Even though they only show you what you already know deep down :-)
Dmt for me, after about 3 years of mulling it over :)
I've never done shrooms, but as Bolb said, this idea definitely feels like one I've known deep down for a while now. It's crazy. Like, I'm scared to say it or address it or be honest about it but I do believe in the continuation of the oneness through never ending energy. That I always was and always will be and that this perspective will be the only perspective forever. My perspective. I just won't ever be able to understand how this perspective will always be and has always been. It's weird but, it's true.

As an atheist, I most peculiarly enjoy Alan Watts' lectures and videos. Quite beautiful.
I think it has to do with much of what being said isn't really said with woowoo. More of his lectures elaborate on this, and he never once pulls out the spooky magic.
brajamtho757 I don't think his philosophy of being God has to do with being a literal God that can control anything. He's saying we're God in the sense that we are the highest power. The universe is the highest power and since we are a part of the universe we are the highest power. He's talked down on the ceramic model of the universe and says that the universe doesn't need to be created by anyone or anything because it is God. Not God in the sense of being a conscious creator but God in the sense of being the thing responsible for it's own existence.
***** So the universe created itself? How can a thing create itself? And I think it's remiss to say that "we [humans] are the highest power". We are most certainly not the highest power, not even compared to the forces of nature which could obliterate us in a heartbeat. We are small, fragile, finite, destructible beings, but that doesn't mean we aren't capable of doing great and wonderful things. My personal conception of G-d (or at least the kind of G-d I want to believe in) is one who is more personal and actively involved in human life on a collective and individual level. I like to think of G-d as being merciful and loving, rather than wrathful and vindictive, as I imagine most people would. At the same time, I understand that there would need to be a balance of both justice and mercy for the universe to work. I suppose you might say that my view of G-d is more biblical and traditional. Alan Watts may or may not have believed in that type of G-d (actually it seems to me that his view of G-d is more in keeping with Eastern rather than Western tradition) but I still love his insights and I find them extremely poignant and moving. I also don't think that Watts's view of G-d is entirely at odds with the view of G-d in the Jewish mystical tradition, in the sense of G-d being the Infinite Light (Ein Sof) hiding itself in creation.
I don't think you understand that I'm not using the term create in a literal sense. When I say create I'm just saying that the universe is responsible for it's own existence. When I say humans are God I mean that we don't exist as egos or souls that are separate from God which is exactly what the Jewish view of the soul is. Western religion strictly believes in the ego and the self. Alan Watts view of God is that the universe itself is God and since, according to Eastern views, we aren't egos in a bag of skin we are the sum total of all of existence. We are directly a part of the infinite. Our perception of being a self separate from our environment is an illusion especially when the particles that exist as your self have existed for 14 billions years. That's why I don't believe there's an afterlife because I view the universe as on continuous process. After my death the universe will still go on and the particles that existed as myself will still exist. I just don't think my individual sense of self as an ego will go anywhere or live on because the universe is already living on. Hope that made more sense.
I'm sorry if I misunderstood. When you wrote that "the universe is responsible for its own existence", I interpreted it as meaning that the universe somehow brought itself into existence. Also, the Jewish view of the soul is that it is indeed a part of G-d, in the sense that it was created in the Divine Image, so to speak, and imbued with a Godly spark. I don't think the afterlife necessarily conflicts with the idea of the universe "as a continuous process", as you put it, because the afterlife is not physical, but a dimension and plane of being that transcends space and time. I also don't agree with the assertion that universe itself can "be G-d", since the universe is merely a creation of G-d, and G-d is distinct from His own creation. In fact, there are multiple spiritual universes, according to Jewish mysticism, and we occupy the lowest. And Judaism is not a Western religion at all. It began in the Middle East and Mesopotamia, going back to the time of Abraham, the progenitor of monotheism. I think this may be part of why there are so many fascinating parallels between the Eastern and Jewish conceptions of God and spirituality. We don't agree on everything, but I think there are more parallels between the Jewish and Eastern views of spirituality than there are between the Jewish and Christian conceptions of G-d.
Before I had discovered Alan, I used to have severe anger issues and couldn’t control my emotions. It may have been from a concussion back from when I was younger, through sports. But I’ll never really know so I let it go. Anyways it was like there’s was two sides of me that wouldn’t work together to be one single Being. Sort of like a physical me, and a inner neurological me trying to impose other ideas and I don’t mean it in a schizophrenic way. They would often battle and I would end up being short tempered and off. I’m a pretty normal kid at school and out, not to sound like that kid but I would say I’m a pretty popular kid, athletic, artsy, and pretty bad attention skills.I have a lot of good relationships and a good family. But everything was off for most of my teen years. I was over complicating life and asking too many questions. It started to drive me crazy on the inside although I did a good job at hiding it. Even sad at sometimes because I thought I was nothing besides a spec of energy. After I had discovered him, he really helped me with the answers to my questions. I realize I can’t control things. It’s like trying to float on water, It’s in a way letting the water take u and u just let it happen. Same goes with the universe. I’ve always wanted to become the master of something and hopefully make good money eventually, but my only question for me now is, what? I’m glad I’m only 16 and my thought process is the way it is. Although I get annoyed at my friends because they don’t realize it, what we are all experiencing, too caught up with their petty problems. They are too self Centered, matter of fact all kids my age are. I used to smoke weed too, probably wasn’t the best. But sometimes it would open my mind up to unimaginable things, and I loved that part of it and it helped me answer my questions. But since the last time, it felt like it makes me much more stupid and slow. I don’t need it anymore. It was sort of a way to get away from my aggravating questions. The most recent times I had done it, it just numbed me and made me stupid. Anyways hope you have a good day.
Understanding the mind makes a difference
To be honest, stopping smoking weed is the best decision you made. There is and was nothing wrong with you. As you probably know your brain is not fully developed (pre frontal cortex) until age 25. Until then we run through the amygdala and it is the part of the brain responsible for emotions. You and your friends are just normal teens. Maybe the weed caused the introspection that your brain wasn't able to process logically and it became over excited. As Alan says, the mind is a wonderful servant but a lousy master... best wishes on your journey, I wish I'd known Alan at 16....
I must commend myself for how well that was said...
"The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around
in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves." -Alan Watts
Alan Watts always helped me. Everyday when i walked to my bus stop, i would listen to one of his speeches. He helped me whenever i felt useless.
I could listen to him forever.
You can!!!!!!!

Alan watts can describe things I feel, so well. He has a way with words, he definitely had some shit figured out.
I Am not afraid. And I Am complete, and not complete at the same time.
That leaves me with only one purpose at this very moment.
That purpose is to love this world and everything in it, for as long as I Am here. I understand you're words. And I Am thankful for them, and for you.💜🏔️🥀
Amen 🎼🙏🙏🙏🎼💯🙌😇
We need to get more of his books made, distributed and kept in history. This man changed my life and I know that most of his lectures are nothing new but he added his own flavor to it. He describes it like a very, very great man. I've never heard Zen or Buddhism or anything desribed in such a beautiful way as he has. In my personal opinion...
Alan Watts was a poet. More need to know about his books and lectures. Peace and love to all of you. (:
All is one, one is all you are experiencing life within life itself you are you and they are they and you are they, and they are you. You see behind the veil the veil is cleared you are life itself.
2019 we still here with this good energy!
'to be always you would be an insufferable bore and so it is arranged that you stop being you after a while and then come back as someone else altogether. and so when you find that out you become full of energy and delight.' i literally became full of energy and delight at this.
God I needed to hear this

This is why you never should judge others religion, faith or whatever you want to call it. Simply put... No one knows. That is the universe. The game of life.
GoldenNorway1 I think a more accurate way of saying what you're getting at is "you should be critical of others judgements who think they know" read some work from Jospeh Campbell and Sam Harris if you don't understand that criticism is the only way to point people towards a real understanding of "god".
Keenan Burke-Pitts | It's up to each and one of us to decide what god is. -No one's got tha answer.
I'll judge another person based on life choices and what they want to try to do to me. If it happens that a group of people appear to act against my best interest more than other people, that's on them.
what i dont like about religion is that it makes people believe they do know the answers.
GoldenNorway1 you are the universe from a different perspective of itself.
He makes my life and inevitable death more tolerable. Thank you Allen Watts!

This is wonderful.. Jesus said me and the Father are one.. I Am one with all also. For I no longer live yet Christ lives in me. Thanks be to all the saints, including Alan Watts, Lao Tzu & The Buddha.. 'Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.. Peace and love to all beings.
Yes the truthcontest is good and The Present.. When we are following the Way and the Truth then we see clearly illusion and know the right things to say and do. Blessings and love to you and all beings.

Amen. I have learnt from experience to pray for those who curse us or do us wrong, but not always in their hearing, as this can make them more angry.
#1 Peace and love to all beings and then forgive others as well as our selves.
When we destroy individual ego, which is illusion then we become One with all.
Blessings and love to all beings.

Jesus those words written by man for jesus aka dhor krystal was his real name and god is a women that is the truth ! Dhor was here to show us we are so much more and can do what he does but elites try to make sure we never find the truth
thanks for making me feel so much better alan watts
I've heard MANY speak.... but I very closely relate to this man the most! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Alan Watts; one of the best. I started out with Alan Watts when I was just a puppy...priceless!
I wish he was my Dad
+Dean Grear :DDD
or grandpa
+RadsPerSecond Great answer!
I always think of him as Uncle Alan.
You are what you are thinking about!
Here I am, in this lifetime. It must be like this every time. I've never really moved from my true position at all!
So good to be reminded of this
I feel like the universe isn't meant to be understood. But this man has an understanding of it beyond any of ours. Incredible.
I'm simply spellbound. Watts was a wizard with words.
As soon as I saw the title to this talk, I knew he would be talking about a revelation I had after a spirit walk on lsd. I was right. What he explains here is what I found.
Enlightenment is a spiritual game of tag.
Gotcha! Now you are it.
We came from somewhere, we are here to make our own story and not to feel like your just history, you are going back home to where we came from,live life to the fullest and be happy • you can do it 🥰
Beautiful message! Thank you.
@@peacefuldaizy5717 your welcome from love deep down in my heart I say it , there's to much going on world wide , we must all remember our purpose in life and never forget love one another 🥰 be well take care
Imagine if you could show everyone in the world this video
I am guessing few would "get it" immediately but would hopefully plant a beautiful seed.
Tbh did u get it?
Did we get it
Or is it a idea of gettin it
horrible video to show its just incomprehensible and random
Joker I’m getting it, I’m on the path and every time o come back to listen to this I understand it slightly more
Grand Flex Johnson: John Jhon Jon Jonathan IV yeah guess no one would really get it
The most profound words that I have heard in a long time.

“you will not be afraid of fear” this sentence got me thru anxiety so many times
i played it as i went to sleep.. and woke up in the morning,,, and it was still playing.. wonder if i heard it in my sleep...
I admire Alan for his messages, he help'ed me find my true meaning of life. Thanks for uploading this amazing video, Bless.
really - he is articulate, but I think the music and the video go along way to making his words more impressive
Indeed it does!
Henry Willis His message is just as valid either way, but the video and music make sure people with shorter attention spans keep paying attention. I don't think it adds to the meaning, nor that it takes away anything from what he's saying.
Harbinger Reaper Hello friend, i partly agree with what you are saying, however i do happen to think that music has quite a profound affect on his words of realisation or wisdom cant explain it bur while this beauitful music is played alond with Mr Alan Watts words is grips and consumes people just my thought
The same for me. I left Islam some years ago and i'm an atheist now but I always felt that there is more to life and Watts helped me to find it and now I see life in a complete different way. Much more beautiful than it was before.
So good! Who else is still watching in 2017? Love and peace to you all! :-)
we wil watchit forever...
i may belvie more and more peaple fallow allan for every year that will past
2018 and all 😂😂😊
Ikr. Amazing
I've been watching it since 2014, and now i am still watching!
The world is one energy. It has crests and troughs, on and off, light and darkness.
You are that. All life is fundamentally a play of energy. There is no need to fear, as you don't fear clouds.
Thanks Alan. 🌎🎂🎈🦉🌾🌈💎🍒⚓🌴👍🐧
This has been my favorite RUclips video since I’ve seen it. He explained everything I’ve allways believed without being able to explain it myself.
its amazing how I discovered Alan Watts just when I needed it. Its as if the universe knew this is what my soul craved.
'To drift like a cloud ☁️ and flow like water 💧' ☔️- Alan Watts xx
Wtf! He is amazing! Rip my friend
My father struggled with Parkinson's Disease for about 10 years - One night, I laid down beside him on his bed and we watched this video on my phone together. By the end of it, the two of us both had tears in our eyes. When I asked if he'd liked it, he nodded eagerly with approval and squeezed my hand... He passed away the following week.
This all happened about 6 years ago now, but I'm certain I'll cherish that memory dearly for the rest of my life. I'm not sure if Alan's words helped him accept the idea of Death or not, but I do know that these words & that moment we shared has helped me in coping. Thank you whomever uploaded this video (and also, of course, Alan Watts) for sharing these ideas with the world!
If there's something comforting to add, his energy cannot be destroyed, be glad the presence still exists within this infinite moment. we are the infinite awareness perceiving itself.
I just love his voice and everything

Alan Watts literally changed my life and I get it now. All life is just the playing back and forth of positive and negative energy. Anxiety stems from the fear that negative energy will overtake the positive and become a negative forever spreading negativity wherever it goes. But at the same time the whole point of duality is one can’t exist without the other. It’s an “on and off system.” Energy can’t be created or destroyed only transformed. So know that negative energy is always there because we need negative energy to have positive energy and vice versa. But it’s just way more fun to be a positive energy that feeds off negativity because it makes you that much more positive. So everyone should just accept that negative things happen in life but the only person that can make you positive or negative is you because all the worlds a stage and we’re the actors but we’re also the directors of our own movies called life. And know all you are is the answer to the question why because you’re it. You’re just here to know that the universe exists and it’s all the playing back and forth of energy. So just stay positive everyone!
The moment you move away from “ I Believe” to “ I”, in that moment you will understand that “ the God you are in search of it’s you”
Truth. I am God, there is nothing that is not God.
