I don't mean any disrespect to anyone but the comments under these videos complaining about the background music are the bane of my existence Edit: just finished the video and it is another masterpiece. The incredible words of Alan Watts accompanied by the perfectly selected images and music

Alan is my most favoured speaker on the nature of existence. I find others who dismiss him as not being sufficiently patient to see through the veil of phenomena and emotions. The idea of Zen, is as Thomas Berry was wont to state: "Nothing is itself without everything else." Alan very simply explains in his own way, that our humanity is entangled and intertwined with our essential underlying nature of being; that they are as inseparable as a crest is from a trough, to create a wave.

that's all i needed - just some words of encouragement. very insightful, but also very fleeting. the philosopher himself is aware of the impermanent of things, such as himself, you, or me. aren't we all ultimately the same, in that sense? we come and go like all things. it may be the middle of the week, but have a good weekend, guys. this next one, and the many ones ahead.

Sitting here, awake too early and doomscrolling through my feed filled with bad news about politics and climate issues, I felt a deep sense that “I don’t want to be alive in this world.” Then this video appeared on my screen, like a response to my unuttered thoughts. Are KZfaq’s algorithms really that magical or is magic actually at play here?

my wife of 45years got a death sentence. They even gave her a date, like an execution date. It’s called a prognosis. My family, being two adult children, snatched her away and got the landlord to send an eviction notice. My daughter, now 45, is a nurse in a major hospital. What did i do? Nothing. I did nothing to deserve this. Now I live in the back of my car at a dog beach in australia. At my age, with a heart condition. It’s tantamount to murder. The government takes it’s sweet time to process the marital assets with no duty of care. That’s reality. It’s cruel and random.

God is NOT. The real God is a Oneness, the Absolute. Everything. It does not judge, it allows. It is given to You, this tiny fractal of Onesness, to choice how you flow, where you flow, or indeed if you do not. The Oneness does not judge, simply gives you Life, to play, to learn, to make mistakes (sin! In aramiac to miss the mark), to love, to do “bad” things and realise how you destroy your best self that way. You are not your mother, your father, your school teacher, the local priest. You are You, a wee part of Oneness. You choose the journey. Watch what happens when you choose to do it in positiveness, joy, agape, giving and receiving freely.
