Alan Watts was an incredible philosopher and speaker who had a unique way of exploring Eastern philosophy and spirituality. His captivating lectures and books have inspired countless people around the world.
Alan Watts was born in England in 1915 and developed a deep interest in Eastern philosophy from a young age. He studied Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism, and became a renowned interpreter of these philosophies for Western audiences. His ability to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western thought made him a popular figure in the counterculture movement of the 1960s.
One of the central themes in Watts' teachings was the concept of "the self." He explored the idea that our sense of self is an illusion, and that we are all interconnected with the universe. He encouraged people to embrace the present moment and find joy in the simple act of being alive.
Watts had a way of delivering profound insights with a sense of humor and playfulness. He believed that life should be approached with a sense of wonder and curiosity, and that we should not take ourselves too seriously. His lectures often included anecdotes, stories, and metaphors that helped illustrate his points in an engaging and relatable way.
In addition to his lectures, Watts wrote numerous books on topics such as Zen Buddhism, Taoism, and the nature of consciousness. Some of his most well-known works include "The Wisdom of Insecurity," "The Book: On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are," and "The Way of Zen."
Alan Watts passed away in 1973, but his teachings continue to resonate with people today. His ability to distill complex philosophical concepts into accessible and relatable ideas has made him a beloved figure in the world of spirituality and philosophy.

I believe our purpose is doing what it takes to support the ones we love, ie usually our family. Many people do not find happiness in this as they do not like what they have to do to support their families, ie they hate their jobs. I come to this conclusion because for the first 50 or so years of my life, I identified as a programmer, my career, which I absolutely loved and a family man. Even though I had some medical issues and had made some mistakes in life, I hustled at work, but I was happy, happy, happy. Still a programmer, but now I work full time from home, put in maybe 2-4 hours a day. My medical condition has rectified itself. I should be happy, happy, happy, but I am not. Still making the same money, all this new found free time, but I am bored. My chosen language is aged and learning anything new is difficult. That for me was the meaning of life, being able to do something you love to support your family well.
The Universe is infinite, no beginning, no end, no Big Bang, no centre, no time, unknowable, we are an essential part of IT
Like a spiral in a circle a wheel within a wheel never ending or beginning on an Ever spinning reel! The big bang? What did it Bang into more like the big happening for everything came into existence all at once and it's been expanding ever since then? Like sound comes out of Silence existence comes out of non-existence, endlessly cycling back and forth without beginning or end because the beginning of anything is the end of a previously existed and the end of anything is the beginning of something new and creation and destruction again two sides of the same coin because whenever you destroy something you create something new and whenever you create something you destroy what previously existed! Extreme poles of the same process! Non-duality!
Very well said
This is more of a feeling, instead of a knowing.
@@dustinbreithaupt9331 Unknowable
@@geraldhansen2227 agreed.
"All that is mortal and perishable is but a symbol"
Hehehe, he ends on the line "everybody likes to swing!" Lmao!
Alan Watts´ German pronunciation is excellent. Almost like a native speaker.
This is not Alan Watts speaking.
@@chrismurraymusic No? Who else?
@@howardpope3932 AI
@@chrismurraymusic How do you know?
@@howardpope3932 i have listened to many hours of Alan Watts and know his voice.
Like the bee gees said... 🎶 you should be dancing yeah🎹
Is it just me or does this sound like AI, I could be wrong
Yeah! It's unpleasant to listen to compared to the thousands of other real recordings.
Yer not wrong.
Keep going with that.
You always know.
We all always really know the difference.
Nevermind having to explain yer guts.
MuchLove
AI sounds like Alan Watts
Yeah it's definitely AI it seems to be spliced together from many of his different Seminar lectures, So as far as I can tell it is his actual voice it's just been cobbled together
I know most lectures this is genuine not ai @@viciousliberal2327
I know my comments are dumb, but its actually the right attitude, this is the comments section game, the game being; who can come up with the best comment, and according to alan watts you guys hella lost, because your taking it too seriously, trying to sound all smart and scholary. The right approach is to be zen in every aspect of life and to never lose the feeling of fun, hes not trying to say something philosophical, hes explaining something very simple and pure that is beyond philosophy and religion.
Cheese can be different colors and the yellow ones tend to be harder while the pale ones tend to be soft.
I guess your comments aren't so dumb after all, huh. Anyway I think you're wonderful if only for the fact you really get Mr Watts.
@@tonyjohnson8929 Someone who says they know Mr Watts does not know Mr Watts! The only real way to describe his ideas would of course be silence, but even admitted that's a bit boring...Anyway, everybody loves a good review so thanks for the comment - Have a good play whatever you do.
@sergiocampanale3882 lighten up, Francis!
❤❤❤❤❤
I didn't plan I lived one day at a time
The most zen thing you can do is to make light of serious things, and the dumbest thing you can do is to turn things that are fun into something serious. Thats why jokers and comedians are the guardians of truth, because when you say something true with a detached irony, like you mean it but not really, thats usually pretty funny. But if you say something true with frankness and complete seriousness then your just preaching. Alan watts has the ability to say truths without sounding preachy, its almost like hes saying jokes
One Name Springs to mind George Carlin!!
The AI work is shabby.
Wersh!!!!!!!
Your suppose to laugh and say, WERSSHH!! Alan watts is like if god was a stand-up comedian
Denger😊
A.I generated bullshit

It's a real speach.

Swursh
Alleluia (Halleluiah) in Hebrew means "Praise be to God". lol - Alan doesn't know everything.
I am not in agreement with this..this analogy make it seem as though you are control of time.. you are not.
Blursh
Yep. AI 🤦🤦
Τhe *The meaning of life* , whether rearranged title on various books, head of articles, life pursuit for meaning, in all cases it is utterly nonsense.
