The voice from the skull is Alan Watts, and this fragment is from a lecture called "The dream of life". Awesome philosopher from the 70s and 80s. His lectures can really transform the way you appreciate reality and your life
"What I am saying then is just because you don’t know how you manage to be conscious, how you manage to grow and shape this body of yours, doesn’t mean that you’re not doing it. Equally, if you don’t know how the universe shines the stars, constellates the constellations, or galactifies the galaxies - you don’t know but that doesn’t mean that you aren’t doing it just the same way as you are breathing without knowing how you breathe."
C0mm Not really man, most people never think about life implying death or “being present” in their daily life. Some just do it without thinking about it, some do it when they think about , being aware.
@Daniel Jangthanong Nah man I love Alan Watts and agree with 75% of the shit he says. I was referring to OP saying "its common knowledge to think like how the skull thinks. Maybe I misinterpreted what he said, if so my bad.
This is such a perfect symbolic representation of Adventure time as a whole. The show often when went into existential philosophical places. But it was more focused on being an advocate of being present in life and the world, and being invested in it, as opposed to being disconnected and unattached to it. Finn smashing the skull is him saying "be here now! Concern yourself with and care about your immediate experience!" It's not a message that older stories/pieces of media focused on much, because people didn't used to need to be reminded of that. But it's perfect for our modern age, in which many of us live so much of our lives mediated through digital tools that we can forget what it's like to experience the real world directly, and know how that experience is valuable.
@@littlemoth4956 I don't think that Adventure Time had a "technology bad" message. Critically, the show was non-judgemental. It was like "wow, being in the experience of life is really valuable, and we want to share that with you, but you can of course do your thing, whatever that is." And that message hit harder for the generation that watched it because being in the experience of life was something we tended to be more deficient in. If I remember correctly, even when the show did represent technology specifically as something that was separating people from life (when Jake and Finn found the atrophied humans living their lives in a virtual reality world), rescuing BMO aside, their response was more or less one of "that's not for us, but you guys do you."
That’s funny how he said who’s jake and good ol watts starts talking, he says that we don’t really know who we are we are given things like a name a birthday and a career. But it’s not who we really are deep down, they are constructs
The easiest way to get into the meditative state is to begin listening. Simply close your eyes and allow yourself to hear all the sounds that are going on around you, listen to the general hum and buzz of the world as you listen to music. Don’t try to identify the sounds you are hearing, don’t put names on them, simply allow them to play with your eardrums. Let them go. In other words, let your ears hear whatever they want to hear. Don’t judge the sounds: there are no proper sounds nor improper sounds, and it doesn’t matter if somebody coughs or sneezes or drops something - it’s all just sound - pretty cool allen watts quote
thanks bro. look I've been looking for good quotes but all that I find either edgy or funny. I want quotes like (absence of the mind proves the presence of one) (abandon all hope ye who enter here) do you know I a way to find some?
