I wish u could do daily videos...with multiple creators of the drawing. Different mediums. Maybe crayon, paint, or even have a video where different creatora do a secrion of the video each there own style. Just make that one like 3 hrs long lol

Keep up the great work! Have you considered featuring Joseph Campbell? Thanks!

please bring more speech of Alan Watts

This was absolutely brilliant, the mind of Alan watts was truly something to behold. And the way you animate breathes so much life into his words!

Excellent talk and video. 6:20 ''What you are, basically - deep, deep down .... is the fabric and structure of existence itself.''

Except in a debate, probably.

But is this quote taken the wrong way? I feel as though we are constantly wanting to change in order to improve ourselves rather than expecting who we are which is to say, the universe. So in realizing this we are free from worrying about being any different than we are at this very moment.

But alas I'll remain evolved tubes lol. Tubes with no obligations, only guidelines that I'm pretty sure are best left unfollowed.

People with Schizophrenia felt this.

@@dallas1891 there’s never an end to discover who we are and to evolve

Damn this hit hard

Life is about the balance between solving problems and and enjoyment being mentally healthy. There can't be any "but" - pretending problems don't exist and aren't worth paying attention to is a false and dangerous philosophy.

Fantastic quote ... 👏👏👏

@@Anton_Sh. You are taking a 13 word sentence and trying to find a way to "debunk" it....don't dig so deep at it. Of course there are problems in life and some worth paying attention too, but way too many damn people are depressed and have anxiety problems and are always worried about something...even, and often, crap that is way out of their control. Life is too short, experience it the best you can, ignore most of the bad crap you think is out there after you, handle the bad crap you can that is actually something you can control, but just live your life to your best ability.

@@Anton_Sh. Life being a "reality to experience" will also include problems to be solved. It is a matter of perception.

Alan Watts is the reason I survived that one LSD trip.

@@ElephantWhisperer222 facts

Same bro same...

You are the reason you are okay. You found Alan Watts

imagine if everyone has and applied this mans insight

Offtopic, but yes. Alan means that all your actions, intended or untended, is you. If you were ordered to do smth and you did it, It is YOU who did it. You cant just say I was ordered. If you wanted to become a singer/businessman at youth, but your family went against it, you cant blame your family for changing your mind. You can blame only yourself.

@@nurikkulanbaev3628 Blaming things on yourself or not. Even though an occurrence might be someone else's fault, if it affects you it will be your responsibility how to deal with it. Rather than blaming anyone for actions that a person took. It is more fruitfull to investigate what motivation you had that made you do those actions. Linking back to what was told in the video. Do we even have choices? or is it all a flow actions and reactions.

wow yeah thats so true

Or they don’t love themselves, they love what their body can do for them

Nothing I’ve gained in life material or economic has brought me to the decision to love self this has been since birth I’ve felt this way I always felt not believed but felt that self love was very important to my SURVIVAL

@Dao the Eternal Nameless Beyond Thought Have you considered typing in a comprehensible Manor?

I haven't accomplished shit nor do I have great possessions, yet I know I don't fully love myself

This idea kinda scares me sometimes, i dont wanna be smth as cruel like a pedophile or worse ; a politician If i watch a horrormovie, then it is also me

I keep it way simpler, just breathe... Experience the air and that's it. Even scientifically, the atoms and molecules that we breathe all have been circulated trough other humans, animals, plants, trees etc. It's an constant flow. And all I need to do, to remember that everything is connected is just feeling the air I breathe.

@@UKnowURRetarded I agree, it is scary; and it is an important realization, motivating mindfulness of what we support, in this example, supporting scary movies. Life takes dedication & a willingness to particpate

@@UKnowURRetarded everything around us (good and bad) are manifestations of the whole spectrum. Though there are ugly parts, you have to accept them along with the righteous ones because everything depends on the balance 😌

@@UKnowURRetarded Read the short story "The Egg" by Andy Weir. In it the main character dies and has a conversation with god. “Just me? What about everyone else?” “There is no one else,” I said. “In this universe, there’s just you and me.” You stared blankly at me. “But all the people on earth…” “All you. Different incarnations of you.” “Wait. I’m everyone!?” “Now you’re getting it,” I said, with a congratulatory slap on the back. “I’m every human being who ever lived?” “Or who will ever live, yes.” “I’m Abraham Lincoln?” “And you’re John Wilkes Booth, too,” I added. “I’m Hitler?” You said, appalled. “And you’re the millions he killed.” “I’m Jesus?” “And you’re everyone who followed him.” You fell silent. “Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”

False.

sounds good.

That's just a saying to sound smart but very false

No it makes sense. You did C because of B. You did B because of A. Only in reflection can you understand the reaction to any given action. But in life the action comes first.

I cant explain everything I do, but I can explain everything I did.

Which means that, fundamentally, you and I are the same. Hello me! How does the universe look from where you're standing?

@@lilrudie5194 this is the sweetest experience I’ve ever had on KZfaq. Thank you for asking! I’m better 😌I hope you’re doing well too!🌻🤍🌻

@@gic8849 I’m depressed too, I also have severe anxiety, I understand this unexplainable feeling of dread and sadness and fear. I don’t think anyone can really understand what it is like without going through it. We can’t blame them but it is really beyond words. And sometimes even in the lowest lows it’s beautiful if you can take a step back and see that even this is just a ripple in the universe, completely meaningless and non influential to the big picture. And most likely if we really come to terms with that even the anxiety and sadness will be nothing more than a faint memory.

Ah, irony, at last.

Nice one 👌🏾 can I use it?

thank you

When I did psychedelics a while ago, I had a thought expiriment (thought about it a few times but on psychs it made me 'feel' the most). Think of this. You are you, and you came into the world the moment your mother gave birth to you. But did you really only exist from at that moment? No, obviously you came into existence when your father and mother convieved you by merging of their 2 cells. But then. Doesnt that mean that you existed even before you were born? Because you didnt just suddenly exist. The things that made you, the things that literally *_are_* you, already existed. Your parents already contained you in them. But then we might as well say that the moment your parents were concieved, you started to exist. But that would mean that the moment their parents existed you also existed. You existed the moment the first human ever existed. But thats not true either. When the first dinosaur existed, the first fish, the first multicellular organism, when the first cell ever existed, you existed with them. You may live only a few decades. But you have existed since life exists. And I find that a pretty cool thought. One can even say that we all existed even before life. Life had to emerge from the lifeless. The big bang set in motion a chain of events, creating matter, forming galaxies. forming planets and the earth. Eventually that chain of events created life, and you and me. Does this mean the big-bang contained information, an accidental, random, maybe intended blue print to create us? I dont think we will ever know.

@@bas_ee wow thank you!

@@princessruth9155 they’re thanking him for making the words accessible for a newer generation! A lot of people prefer to watch a pretty visualisation while listening rather than just a blurry video or some such. It helps keep focus I find! Art’s always a nice addition.

beautifully written. Amazing channel

Ah, you feel trapped while I feel free. You have the "real" view and I am stuck with delusion. But you feel trapped? Are you really trapped or do you just feel that way? Am I truly free or do I just feel that way? Which would you prefer? That's obvious, isn't it? Enjoy your prison.

Actually, we are NEVER separate from nature/God/the Universe, it is just our limited human Ego that creates the PERCEPTION of separateness, numerous mental stories, pointless labels, and false identities that almost all of us buy into and defend like a dog defending its bones due to our ignorance of our True Nature.

@@chokispokis If you insist he "was" simply because he passed, you completely missed his teachings

I was thinking about the same thing while watching this vid

Amanita Muscaria are the most beautiful mushroom imo.

I just had a trip that was explained by this video, connected to everything and all of reality

@@acraze2287 yeah most people discover this stuff after they awaken, like me. Goes to show it’s probably true seeing how many people come to the same conclusions

@@thedeviousduck8027 this stuff landed in my YT feed after I first did mushrooms and I didn't search for it. Universal consciousness at play?

Bible thumpers maybe🤔

you do you and let others be themselves. it is hard enough to be yourself.

Its definitely people who have different high strung religious beliefs. Some would say Alan is a hippie and they would mean it in the old sense cause they are all boomers.

Too much ego leads to greedy capitalism, while not enough ego leads to communism, which is just as bad. We need the golden middle in order to thrive.

@@au9parsec NOT REALLY. Any one can have too much ego. Perhaps you are equating ego with surplus goods or consumerism or riches. there are plenty of poor people with large egos.

@@mizzle2 haha ok cool. It was more of a reminder

Right. For the most part these are peoples projections based off of their level of perception of his teachings. He never said he wasn’t a rapscallion.

@@Awakenedmind333 Agreed. I've just seen many people throw the baby out with the bathwater so to speak because Watts had some personal issues that some may not agree with.

Sometimes being a deep introspective thinker has its downsides. The phrase ignorance is bliss is very true. When you make it your life purpose to ponder deep philosophical questions about consciousness and the nature of reality then you are inadvertently opening yourself up to deep existential anxieties too. Nietzsche went insane trying to understand the human experience. I guess the secret is to try not to get lost in content and try to focus on being mindful and living in the moment

@@andybrown3016 Listen, the beauty about the human life is that everyone has a different story to tell. It would be a shame if people followed the exact same rope of a different individual. Life is out there for humans to experience and grab but over the years we have become slowly enslaved to technology which is not a living being. Life can't be experienced through soullessness. But indeed we have come to a stage where our soul is completely stripped. Alan Watts speaks from the soul. And your soul is your experiences/what you make out of life. And honestly that is the way to live but rather we are not heading that way anymore. Lets keep our heads up people 👍

Well alan watts is an ENFP philosopher his entire philosophy revolves around individuality, self efficacy, and personal growth.

You’ll get it in time friend.

The ego never grasps anything. The trick is to quit identifying with the ego, which is nothing but an irrational idea of who you are.

@@tomrhodes1629 ego is needed in order to process the things of this world, including this video by using Langland comprehension. I get what you mean, generally ego gets in the way of our well-being.
