Watts begins with scholarship and intellect and proceeds with art and eloquence to the frontiers of the spirit. A fascinating entry into the deepest ways of knowing.” - Los Angeles Times

Around 15 years ago I discovered Alan's lectures. The only way I've ever been able to explain his impact in simplicity is that Alan Watts has made me think the most interesting thoughts I've ever had. I met an old friend of his name Gerry and her Dog Karmalita in SF area , sweetest lady. She gave my friend & I a ride while we're hitch hiking on our backpacking trip. She told us a lot about Him, the wild side, the friendly side, and everything in-between. Ever since my discovery, I truly believe I've never seen the world, my life, or energy in the same way again. I found Alan's work when I was in a dark place in life and it helped pull me out and here I am 15 years later going through something similar as the past and what decided to pop up today... a beautiful lecture from the man himself. Thank you Alan I wish I could personally thank you for your life's devotion to enlighten the world, as still to this very day your impact has grown larger than you may ever had imagined. Thank you Alan 🙏

So today I think of as stardate 1332024428 With '13' representing a rough count of 'aeons' '3' a complete guess at 'epochs/eras' - & then down to the calendar system we recognise currently. All rather arbitrary - would love to be doing it better - but I prefer this to the much more suffocating constructs such as 'Monday morning'!

Yes, but to obtain that awareness, one must go through stages of true, discipline to a daily spiritual process, amongst other things, which is ironic bc, once you reach the plateau of those efforts, you realize it was all right there in the first place. Always has been. 🙏

Its not something that is permanent or a constant sadly and hate can unfortunately sneak back in especially in this "new normal" i need to 're centre' myself they call it.. It seems like once attained it would be easy and its easy to remember what you know is true but even though we sometimes will react still.. Its ok though you never forget the truth so you are able to re centre yourself and if my preferred sacrament was still available id be able to do that much easier so i guess its a sign to train my unassisted meditation up that would be understandable ✌❤️

"A human being is a part of the whole, called by us 'Universe,' a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." - albert einstien

Some of the stories are so beautiful still while others are very scary and extremely difficult and too powerful to understand and there are others that are not to be talked about. Rituals are extremely sacred and are practiced for centuries for many reasons, not only for our Hopi Tewa people but, for the entire human race and our MOTHER EARTH. Social dances ,men's and women's own separate ceremonies and also together in so many different ways.

38:00. The crowd laughed when he said" so the smart kid commits suicide". That's very real and happens everyday

The first time I was exposed to Alan Watts was 1967. I am 68. Every once in a while, I find myself needing to go back to listen yet again so I can remind myself that I truly belong here, because I am living with so many that either are living only for their life after death, or are making all of our deaths more probable due to their own blind greed, or both. I wonder sometimes how many endless numbers of worlds in this universe have already died from their own collective madness. I wonder if there ever will be a time when we can all say that we all belong here, and, still in our stupidity and our ignorance, can say that we permit everyone else to say the same as well.

Why does ignorance persist? Humans have had thousands of years to learn from experience yet still make the same fundamental mistakes.
