Teacher…, Why do these FREE MASON Lodge Members lie to our faces about everything.?.?.? Had you done something that was so wicked, and so vile, and so upsetting, would you want others too know whom could hurt you back for hurting them first??? Let us take a look at the LOT of [their ways] #QANON /_\ where the Demolay - Jobs Daughters - Rainbow Girls, and Eastern Stars to Shriners like LISA HAVEN and AMTV have all they could want “with money” as they Denied PizzaGATE when it first came to the attention of we The nonmason Populations of Father Earth and Mother Heaven??? Why would she and he say these things “are not” True in Hollywood of the MTV FREE MASONIC Lodges??? Surly Comet Ping Pong, and the release of so much damming images and conversations all they way up to OBAMA and Hillary Clinton would have given any Honest Person some pause…. Moreover, how can RICHIE FROM BOSTON the Road Man give out $500.00 [to viewers] Q’ when none of us are WORKING??? He sounds just like them STIMULUS CHECKS U-Tube channels always saying WE GOT MONEY to give away to you if you will but {Like My Channel} and watch our Malfeasance!!! There is one thing Christ Jesus taught us about The EVIL ONES known as Angels called SATANS not SATAN Singular…..., and that is They Live for this world….., and when you live for this WORLD that is just a REFLECTION of what happened to our Real Celestial Sphere Home World if you have not been a Nice Person……., but one of Deceptions…….., and Misdirection no matter how convincing your “ACTING” as Actors and Actresses……..., there is always this one thing that if your really gave a damn about We nonmason…., you would say: The FREE MASON Lodge Members are “U.N. Troops” of JADE HELM 15 in all U.N. FLAG Territories for WE THE PEOPLE surely have no rights under our U.N. FLAGS even though WE pay all the Religious Military Government TAXES that allow people like Trump…, and Pence.. and Putin. and Xi, and Macron, and the Queen of England to LIVE OFF OUR Welfare as THEY LIVE Tell WE ARE what to do!!!! And even though I have singled out LISA HAVEN - AMTV - RICHIE FROM BOSTON cause they say they love Me, they still DENY that I Christ Jesus “have returned” in this Body known as The Host of the Spirits, and your body is the Host of another spirit, as is theirs, but what SPIRITS do these people whom LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING “have” for it is not the NARROW PATH of Honesty where you must say: The U.S. Government is doing high treason, Sedition, Treachery, nor do they talk about the ACT OF 1871, nor do they talk about THE MUD FLOODS, or our Celestial Sphere, or that we are all BORN into Purgatory for Redemption or Damnation!?!?!? Once you have this knowledge, and they speak it not, then people [like them] Q+ are just doing the work of THE WATCHERS to condition you to accept the Vaccines, the Mask, and that Christ Jesus will “never” return when ALL this Written Works PROVE That The Oracle Born of a Dead Wombman, and Touched by The SWORD of the ROMAN CATHOLIC God did so [choose me] Q’s to be the one to get us home... They don’t want to go home, or they know they can never go home for they too are The “unrepentant” that we call The Racka, and they have no hope for We The People of Pak-Toe… You know how to think things through, and these people might as well be more ALEX JONES “types” muddling the waters, but never actually speaking the TRUTH, nor the word of Our God, and Their God, and My God, and Your God… The Book of EXODICE!!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ereAZqyiv9vVkn0.html Since these people whom have EVIL SPIRITS in their SOULS do not care for the Mercy or Grace of Our God of Gods, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords from the Book of Enoch, they say: No NEWS is Bad NEWS “as long as” it runs Traffic to feed your KZfaq Hollow WOOD lives of Worldly FAME!!! Vanity Vanity, all is Vanity with these FAKE PEOPLE and “nonhumans” in the Spirits of their minds, and bodies, and Celestial beings… The Sentinel… #ProectFrance [///|||\\\] ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

A few years of drug addiction leading to being homeless changed my perspective on life. Prior to being homeless I was a workaholic. Too much work and stress helped me become a drug addict. One day I was sitting by a canal and it occurred to me that everyone is racing to work and for what reason???? Money? I have been sober for 3 years now and own my own business. I work when I feel its necessary and play a whole lot! Alan is the man!

As someone who has always spent a ton of time in their own head, this was oddly comforting. I have often found that I am most peaceful...the most MYSELF when I am sitting in the woods listening to the birds, or out on a walk admiring the sky, or in my room creating an art piece or listening to music. There's a comfort in the now, just as it is. Regardless of what is going on in the world, the various versions of 'now' for each individual; our now is where we have the greatest influence. The 'then' or 'when' is where we slip into chaos and become unhappy with the burden of things that either haven't happened yet, or have already happened, so there's no possible way to go back for a cosmic "do-over".

I agree. If you haven’t experienced a silent meditation retreat in which you sit in silence for a certain period of time, I highly recommend it. You will find the present moment like you never have before. I’ve been on two and I am going on a third one for 18 days next month. They will change your life, I promise. There’s a place called spirit rock in Cali and one called the Rocky Mountain ecodharma center in Colorado. I’ve been to both. Sitting with others in silence while meditating and while eating is one of the most beautiful things we can experience in life-from my perspective.

Introvert and extrovert are just ideas. Its all the game of past experiences. If you had good social experiences in childhood, you naturally grow up to be a good social talker. Otherwise, you become socially awkward just like me. The key to switch between these two natures is not sticking with your past. It is hard to do that, because we are the embodiment of past memories, ideas and thoughts. So, the struggle arises the moment you are not satisfied with your nature. This struggle keeps changing up and down in amount throughout our lives. So, to conclude, if you want a permanent solution then completely get rid of your past or short answer "get rid of thoughts". That is what mostly works for me in social situations. I try to be in a thoughtless state where i can't remember any previous awkward interaction and thus, remain in the present manintaining my composure.

I came here to listen to Allen tonight hoping it would make me feel better.. my little brother who suffered from Autism passed away because he had drown in a lake thinking he would learn how to swim. He was on a field trip and the people who were supposed to care for him lost him in the forest. I took care of him his whole life and suddenly now he’s gone. Allen has helped me through a lot of my hard times in life where I didn’t think I could go on. And now .. I feel the need to share my story with anyone who cares to listen because the reality of life and people around you and the places you go and the things you do with what you have is what makes life and consciousness itself a living gift from God & Universe. Everything is connected, not everything is love.. but we can choose to love one another and take care of each other.

My fight with depression is over. Alan Watts was a big help for me. I can write an entire book (I will) on how I conquered it, but to cut to the chase, the 2020 pandemic is what made me overcome it -- as ironic as that sounds. The virus deprived us of the things we valued everyday -- be it jobs, mobility, people, leisure, or money. And so, plenty tried to bend their lives to seek the happiness they've lost. In my pursuit to mental freedom, I've subconsciously thrown these standards of "happiness." My promotion, a better life in USA, a bigger circle of friends, and the stability provided by my family. I realized these "blessings" that people tell us are oftentimes the things that dictate our lives. What is a promotion if I am unhappy with work? What is migrating if it's just an excuse to be richer? What are anti-depressants if their only permanence is artificiality? What are relationships if they are just conveniences? What is an ambition if its only purpose is to cause anxiety? What is money if it's just a measurement? When I stripped away the things that ran my life, I became the one who ran it. I became free. When the dust settles, what's left is only ourselves. No time, no dream, no person. Happiness was never a pursuit after all. Happiness is me. -End-

do you now know that you are God though? What Alan is saying there is far deeper than you may think, he is not just repeating some empty platitude there. He is referring to the mis-identification of the "self" with the body/mind/sensations (5 skandhas or 5 koshas). We do this because that's what we have been told - you are this body, you are your mind, etc. etc. None of it is true. That is what he is getting at there... he knows that "atman is brahman" (self is God) check this out, if you care: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLake6Z0uZe3ioE.html I highly, HIGHLY urge you to watch it... if you like western traditions (Christianity / Judaism) more, what must you answer when asked "Who is God?" "I AM". Yes, you are. There you go, its occulted in the western traditions, but if you must, go use them. Eastern traditions are way better, there is no occultation (hiding in parables etc.) its plani and out there.

I only had social media for memes but I realized that the constant feeling of being connected to all of these people and pages was overwhelming. I didn't realize how much time it would take away from my day until I finally deleted it. Whenever I want to have a good laugh I just put a podcast on or watch some stand up, so I don't really miss the memes. Most importantly the extra time I use for sleeping more and I have never had a healthier sleep schedule since my pre-teen years. This definitely changed my life for the better, hopefully some of you also find this useful. Quarantine brought me down so hard, and honestly it's the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me. 😁 We are not alone, life is beautiful!

This is a powerful perspective. The concept of time really bothers me in a way that I'm always thinking of my timeline. Worrying if I ever will become that person that I'm always wanting to in the future. Worries of everything that will happen in the future, that I'm constantly fading and not living for the present moment. It's always my dream to be in the medical field and somehow it makes me feel that my time isn't enough. Rushing to achieve things that I forgot to live in the present moment. This video made me assess how I'm living my life. I always say "Carpe Diem" but I guess, I never really lived a day in my life. I'm afraid not to be the person everyone expects me to be. But now I thought of how precious life is and shouldn't be spent asking for validation from others. There's this different level of happiness when you keep living in every moments of your life and not living for people, money, and everything that this harsh world expects me to be. To everyone reading this, live life well , not thinking much about unnecessary things, after all life is short and should be spent wisely. Live for love, peace and joy .

I always aim to live for the simpliest things in life but I always worry if my way of living is boring (because most people believes having a simple and peaceful life is boring or that I should go chase for things that will make my life "less" boring) but this video and your comment calms and reassures me that I'm living the way just as I want it to be and there are people who like me prefer this kind of life 💓

The point of letting go of materialism is to free up psychic energy from desires and wants. If you are addicted to desiring to change, desiring non materialism, you will suffer just the same. Think of time as a journey that you may take a snapshot of, or string snapshots together into a narrative. Time, space and gravity cannot be separated. A photon of sunlight exists from its release from sun until infinity trillions of years later, at the same "time" because it is a wave. So this is your snapshot life. It already exists forever because it happened. You are the part of time that you are. Every baboon born, from when the first mammal evolved to the last, is equally part of the evolution of baboons. It's nothing personal. Yet only you can make your contribution to the process and flow of time.

@@drebushby9085 you can do that without being quarentined tho. We are social creatures in general and too much isolation will destroy our mental health. Before covid there were paper on papers on isolation and confinement and how it eventually destroyed people. And than as covid hit....those research papers just got pushed down into a void. In fact, several states tried to pass laws banning solitary confinement in prisons because 99% of the inmates committed suicide or were never the same after.

Man that picture of the ego you drew of the green man putting on a mask (ego) is my exact experience on shrooms. I saw everyone as just a mask and even my self. This body will mean absolutely nothing when we “die”. It will be decomposed into thin air until it’s absolutely nothing. This body would not be something if it wasn’t for the you that’s inside it. As in the same way the peel on the orange is the thing we do not eat but we throw away. It’s the fruit that grabs our attention and we work hard for. So find your self and you get a great deal of satisfaction from the bs of this world
