What an excellent analogy!

GOOD POINT

I like this comment lol

Yes!

That analogy was hilariously brilliant.

B Ko

Thats why they dont

The powers that be cant control a world full of intelligent human beings

They do in other parts of the world...

I always say this, _philosophy_ should _never_ be _taught_ anywhere. It has to be _learnt._

Pff

Dr Artemis Morris check out Raymond Karczewski KZfaq channel. These are the Christ Consciousness beings not to worship but to understand the energy not the being.

The Nameless nope

And thankfully there are numerous recordings of him on KZfaq.

Namaste 🙏

UDimwit not really because he makes you thinks a lot. And the key to meditation is not thinking at all. I get what you mean but no it really isn't....

Though to think is not to think if you can get that concept of things..You listen to what he says, you think about it, then you apply it in the form of meditation which is not thinking.. just applying the conceptual values in a different form or state... and it is when you don't think that real and true ideas come from out of no where...

The key to meditation is not "to not think" , indeed in one of his talks Alan Watts says exactly this. Meditation is a whole state of being, I can meditate going about my everyday life, it is an inner calm of sorts and a perspective only you can be aware of. To apply a maxim such as you have is to put it in a box , it is like trying to explain love, it cannot be explained by something which it is not, you cannot explain love because it is so very personal and indeed everyone will have a different view which also cannot be exactly felt by another. Meditation is not tangible, Alan Watts does make us think a lot but that is not to say we cannot be in a meditative state whilst thinking. In Savasana in Yoga I ask my students not to empty their minds, indeed that would be impossible, but rather to try to slow down thoughts ; to try to create spaces in between them to calm a busy mind, this to me is how anything and anywhere and any place can be a meditation,they can then take that with them and their inner calm shines out in their interations with others and has a beautiful knock on effect of compassion and acceptance. I would explore this open view of meditation as it is very interesting to oneself. Peace x

Very true, many ways to meditate! You can guide your self or you can be guide by another :D

A Js on point :-) xx

I find trying to quiet my thoughts is so hard... 😐

for most of us, unfortunately, it happens through living a traumatic childhood. Become your own best friend or you sink.

@@Owlobserver stop "trying" and it will happen

Wow that's powerful

John if only the world can understand this..

John ,this is not to be understood but to be experienced. The key is to bring this reality to your beingness on a daily occurance.The truth is yours to do with as you wish. What will you do?

AUM

...that means: reality is vibrancy, frequency, (electromagnetic) oscillation, represented by that gong-sound and the moment of now ...

+Robert that is not what he is saying, that is your idea that of the sound. The only reality is in the moment of now when you hearing it. No idea no thought no belief. At least i think that is what he is saying maybe im wrong maybe im nottoooooooo

Truth finds it way in chuckles and smiles.

Shhhh stop talking in class. Lol But i know right. Freaking ads..

Was gonna like this comment, but.. 333 likes. Nah it's nice lmao

@R F I haven't thought about an add in months. Haha. Best money you can spend.

Yes 👌🏽💯

nicely put

Its important to keep in mind that our brains evolved the concept of "past and future" because it helped us survive at a time when we were prey (we learned to plan/organize). Our close cousins chimpanzees and other monkey species don't have this ability, because their ancestors stayed tree-living. But on the ground we were more vulnerable. When our brains got the concept of time, we traded that brainspace and sacrificed other traits that has to do with understanding the present (like reacting fast to something we see). Today this time-perspective still helps us, but like most traits there's an obvious downside to it. We tend to focus too much on future and past. (Based on research mentioned in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/odqbnbibyMDNlGQ.html)

@@s.b200 great point we keep looking beyond the present

now can not be replicated nor relocated. its now yet we are listening to the words of a dead man.

I would say, no matter how thin we slice Tim, it will fall either in the past or in the future.

listen to your own voice

Imo yes actually that does incorporate a large part of you

When the quotes speak louder than the teacher, it's infinityly finite🔄🔃🔯

He at the same time is TELLING YOU that you are NOT what people say you are. If I’m told I’m not what people say I am then What am I? What I say I am? But I’m told to define myself. I’m also told that I am what others say. What do I subscribe to? GONGGGGGGGG *silence*

Hello

CHRIS ROACH Consider all these videos on the net to be an online course. Pretend he's still alive. Imagine him old as dirt in a wheelchair.

Well considering he's lived his live and has departed from our points of view, one could very well consider all of his work that is on KZfaq right now, is one giant online course lectured by yours truly, Alan Watts ;)

CHRIS ROACH he's only one proponent of the message

The closest u can find today is jordan peterson, the biggest differences is jp uses religion as a lever to stay true,out of practicality. Watts did not like religion for the amount of guilt it put on someone out of control

omg, someone thinks as i do. that brings hope

Nah man I expierenced that myself quite a few times albeit on LSD haha but i know exactly what youre talking about i could thinksee everything aroung me the birds in the trees what color they were and everything. I wrote it off as imagination the first few times but after a while and actually seeing the things afterward that kinda changed my perspective on the matter. There probably really is something to that especially considering so many govermental agencies around the world did extensive research into this matter....

@lisa gaye This is fucking fantastic. Thank you for sharing that. Hope you are well.

@lisa gaye wishing I knew you

As the commenter above I am blind and I think what you did is truly incredible because thats exactly how it is. The same as sight. You don’t look around and label, you observe passively and everything you need to see is there which is exactly what you have to do with sound when you don’t have any sight, all the detail and richness is there if you just shut up and take notice. Its harder with sound though because its very easy to shut down your visual imagination and just see through your eyes but shutting down your inner voice and just listening is more challenging. Sounds to me like you are a very empathetic person and I appreciate you trying to imagine what my perception is like.

@lisa gaye much love to you

I'm happy for you. Really. Stay strong. Stay safe. Progress.

Amber Levine Don’t give in to them negative thoughts, it’s just an old collective program. You are doing amazing! Keep faith in your heart. Keep listening to these tapes everyday, be around like minded people.

Know that you have love in your life from friends and family, and it would break their heart if anything happened to you. STAY STRONG!

Amber, i found him because my 17 year old daughter did commit suicide and it has utterly devastated life for me. Since then I've been obsessed with near death experiences in an effort to find some comfort in where my daughter is (even though I've been a faithful Catholic all my life) You posted 4 months ago - i hope things have gotten better for you since then whether through listening to AW, sleeping better or through some other catalyst. And, just know that people love you without ever having to even meet you. Hang in there and try to focus on seeing life from a different angle.

Stay blessed im sorry for circumstance's 🙏

uummmm a whisper is not silent i love it when people just say shit as if its fact to try to sound knowledgeable or relevant theres enough nonsense to weed through as it is maybe it would be best if we let the intelligent people or at least the people without mental dissabilities to do the educating in the mean time may i suggest you take a bath hippie wwaaagghhh or not i dont really care this has allready taken enough of my time just thought id let ya know that in my meaningless opinion that was some ignorant hippie dippie bullshit just thought youd wanna know so you could save yourself future whateverness but maybe thats your thing so im just gonna shut up now maybe. hey maybe ill hear my soul whisper to me in "silence?"

maybe im just climbing the sign post hard to know

Mine always tells me to "get outta me swamp."

@@joegrizzly999 lol what ya doin in my waters boy. you ever drink bailys from a shoe?

Anthony Pope so hateful toward someone you don't even know. Talk about a mental disability, MFs have an inability to treat each other with respect. Who cares if the guy doesn't know what he's talking about, he's expressing himself. Perhaps you should focus more on yourself. Maybe then you would actually face your own self doubts and insecurities, rather than trying so desperately hard to ignore them that you must distract yourself by putting others down and insulting them as a means to make yourself feel better. Let the guy spout his nonsense and keep that negative energy to yourself, or perhaps let it out into a punching bag or something. Make it productive

Right on

i thought the point is to not think oh shit im doin it right now oh nooooooooooo. but yeah nikky is a bad mama jamma i cant help but wonder where 369 fits into energy frequency and vibration and dang isnt frequency and vibration dangerously close to being the same thing and obviously energy is present in both and all three so its all energy its all frequency its all vibration because everything is what 99.999999999%energy and all energy vibrates at a specific frequency

Wowwwww! I hv learned something 4rm this statement.

Wowwwww this is the MOST Enlightening statement. Thanks so much sharing ur intelligence.

No my friend, you see reality is..... GONNNNNGGGG!!!

Love back to you!

some others doing it for prophet.

ALL of YOU

Alan watts? hehe

Gayyyyyy

Me too

Ditto

I would love you,,,

Same

Ty Hardel shouldn't common sense, be common?

Every knowledge that we sense through our perception is nothing new.

Most of us have common sense. But we lack common interpretation. And thank God for that. Variety is the spice of life.

Over course nothing would be this way, unless someone wanted it that way

It takes time to remember things sometimes

Mountain wow, I was just thinking how different life would be if we didn’t have language... so much more authentic... like the animals💗

@@moony77 The beauty in your comment is that The Natives also listened to the animals and watched their behavior. Even the tree's gave them knowledge. Everything is connected and they understood that like no other humans have.

I always listen to the sound of words. Either they hit a wall, fall off, or they go somewhere

I have the ability to hear what people don't say.. I tried explaining it before to the people closest to me.. but they don't understand.. lol.. so I stopped telling people.. now I just "know" things without being told.. I've always been able to do it.. but only figured out I could 20 or so years ago now

Yep I am listening with a coworker at work

Yupper thanks for these

@Gary Russ mannn, great practice.

Time/Space Continuum is a LIE found only in Life/HELL. Mind Control is all words for words exist not in Reality. Form exists not. Emotions and Spirituality exist not, mere words of Mind Control. Dissolve all knowledge, all Mind, have an empty Mind and Silence Knows itself as Absolute/TAO, the UNKNOWN. This is Eternal, Simultaneous, Immortal, Peace, Freedom.

One foot on yesterday, one on tomorrow. Means you shit on today.

When the time is right.

Derek Barton Never forget :)

Derek Barton , Money isn't " a measure of wealth" it's mostly a measure of survival. you can't " eat money", but you certainly can't buy food without money.

grow food with no money. one just needs to want to. All supplies free, just need to research. start at extension services. end at seed festival.

Lol respect 💯

I can imagine Bruce Buffer announcing this

once you notice people's eyes slowly look down as you talk, you know they are no longer listening. I call it ”Deitering out” cause I knew a guy named Deiter and he thought he knew everything.

@@Sammasambuddha yep

I have lol

Only days? 🙏🏽🧘‍♂️🇦🇺

I have been listening now for days

There is no Alan Watts, that is a Lie. Names exist not. Form exists not in reality. YOU ARE ABSOLUTE/TAO, all else is unreal.

I say same 💗💗

Is it possible to live life without comparison? Here and now. Cannot enjoy anything in the moment if comparing to or thinking of something else. Perhaps a past experience. Seeking pleasure. Pleasure, enjoyment, joy, happiness. Does anyone get past seeking pleasure?

It was very painful when he passed.

He's given me better advice and helped me in more ways than anyone else has. So I'd have to agree with you.

Marcus Garvey, Malcom X Bob Marley just to name a few. Peace and Power to Alan regardless

Words do not exist in reality. Words are Mind Control, dissolve knowledge and Know The supreme One.

Absolute Dao Yes, Word’s put a “spell” on us.

@@g49613 I don't really think it's pretentious. It's really just a matter of saving face. Worded pretentiously sure but it'd be different if he said I think on another plain from others so much so I don't bother acknowledging anyone else. I get what he means because take an open minded person and a close minded person and put them alone in a room. That won't boad well and heads will butt. It's to avoid that situation really although sad the two can't respect personal opinions.

I think the main message portrayed all humor aside, is that we all are the universe literally the same as animals are part of nature. If we don't all get on the thought track we can't thrive as loving and caring people who make our world better.

I Strongly Disagree 💯

Be blessed always :)

I think they were actually listening to understand rather than listening to respond. I just think they were quite because they wanted to hear him speak lol

There is no mistake.

There are NO MISTAKES!!!

Same here. I just discovered Alan Watts about 6 months ago. I found out researching his professional history and discovered he had a daughter who has the same name as me. Epic!

If it doesn't flow is it balanced?

That's how you know it's a real blessing - at first you think it's a curse.

I struggle with the same thing. I do wonder if it's just inner insecurities revealing themselves though. What other people think shouldn't matter so idk why i get so much anxiety about it

unless you don't feel good vibes ... that inner you senses you cautious of itself

The exception would be in laughter at someone’s expense. In my circle of friends we find much humor in putting each other down with no filters only truth. Because the truth hurts and it’s funny.

Be still and know

nothing good to say say nothing at all

Greetings far in people, If there was never the pain of listening to anything "bad" that is said, what pleasure would be derived from hearing or speaking anything "good". And what of jokers, do they not often purposely speak what is considered "bad" the stupid, the offensive or the absurd, just to give people an alternate viewpoint as well as for laughs. Sincerely yours, a far out person
