This will make you rethink your perception of life. Alan Watts' powerful and profound lecture on the mind. Original audio sourced from: Alan Watts - Still The Mind
#alanwatts #t&h #mind
"“A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts. So, he loses touch with reality, and lives in a world of illusions. By thoughts, I mean specifically, chatter in the skull.
Alan Watts (1915 - 1973)

You can’t hold on, but you can’t let go. You desire to be somewhere in life, but this somewhere is always changing. Desire isn’t the problem, the problem is thinking that it is and trying not to desire, or continuing to desire, thinking you will get to this somewhere, which once again, has changed. For there is nowhere to go, there is nothing to be gained, and nothing to be lost. This seemingly hopeless process is necessary, for you cannot make a mistake, you cannot make a wrong decision. When you are ready, you are ready. When everything around you seems to be crumbling, it is the sandpaper, from a spiritual point of view, that is awakening you. Life is not a journey, it is an experience. You will get to where you need to be. Everything is unfolding the way it must, the universe is a constant, interconnected process, it is a happening and we are a part of this happening. Don’t forget this 🙏

We have more power than we realize. It's not what happens to you in life, it's how you respond to these experiences that counts. In 1970, 10 days prior to my 14th birthday I witnessed part of the beating my father gave my mom which killed her. When my dad came to see me and my siblings before going to prison, I stood 10 feet from him so filled with hate that I was shaking. Then I felt someone touch the top of my head and heard in my mind "don't judge him, God will do that. You love him and he is the only parent you have left". I felt all that hate flow out of my body in seconds. I went up to my dad, hugged him and said I love you and forgive you, please hurry back to us kids. I realize it was the Divine which helpd me and that experience strengthed me and enabled me to care for my siblings. I let go of religion in 1976 and have followed an abundant Spiritual path since.

His book "The Way of Zen" in 1967 while I was in juvenile solitary detention up in Wayne, New Jersey, I was sent there after smashing 4 black kids in woodwork shop with a wooden mallet, they were spit bombing me and as soon as one hit me in the cheek I calmly walked to their bench and went full Thor on them, I was full of violence after an abusive childhood, tormented with demons. But that book was a doorway to higher levels I could ever imagine existed. In ascending fashion level by level and still to this day travelling. 🙏

About 3 years ago, my wife started changing. We’ve been together for 11 years and have 3 kids. Her approach towards life become YOLO and her mantra became “it’s never that serious.” This transformation hasn’t come without its share of hardships; and leaning ways around it has been most beneficial. Mindfulness is key; and realizing that only you can bring yourself peace.

I believe there is a way out of being stressed and full of anxiety. Ive been there, but ive also gotten myself out of it and on my way of being 100% healed from anxiety. The way i did it is finding my purpose in life and walking my life path. I found my purpose here on earth. When you find your passion and your purpose for existence, things come to you a little bit easier and as ive experienced as im going through this journey is that no matter what happens, i know that things always work out for the better so i know now there is no reason to be stressed and worried. But the key is to achieve this, you got to find your purpose. Find your passion and walk that path, and life will become a bit easier for you. That is all our purpose in life.

@yougaming6461 what helped me find my purpose... the dark times. The dark times helped me find my path. I dont think i ever complained. I tried to appreciate the lesson being taught. Dark times for me were blessings in disguise. When you're backed into a corner and what feels like no way out can either put someone down deeper or you can try to let it inspire you and make you use your brain. Theres not a lot you can do when times are rough. I mean I couldnt do any meaningful work and i wasnt making any money but you can always think and research. So i researched, researched and researched and i found something i can build around which is my purpose. Thats the short version of how i found my personal path. But i do think that for anyone with a vision of their future for something good or great, your going to get taught. The universe cant give you the things you want in your mind if youre mind isnt prepared to handle it, so it trains you. Hope it helps in anyway to find your own path.

Luckily, I’ve known my passions starting in childhood. I recognized early on that I was “meant” to be a writer, meant to be a visual artist and as time went on meant to also be a psychic advisor. These are all natural passions I have no control over stopping or starting. They just come naturally, every day, and full my life with joy and, yes, frustration because, like children, they each have “minds of their own.” Sometimes I am annoyed by them when they don’t “behave” as I wish them to, and at other times they ate gloriously satisfying and everybody asked them as I do - my precious darlings, pouring out delightfully. Part of the fun 🤩 s having little or no control over them. They delight and entertain me. At others, they can disappear for days and make wait, biting my nails, for their hoped-for return. I feel the same way about friends and lovers. I seem to have a knack for choosing passionate, good ones, including my darling soul mate husband of 25 years. But there are no guarantees in life. One day he left home to climb a mountain and never returned, leaving me a sorrowful widow. But I believe in a probability: that no one ever dies and that wherever he is, he is in peace and joy and that we will probably be together again. Today I will write another chapter of my current novel, unless the Goddess has other plans for me.

I needed this right now. I've been away from listening to allen watts for a while. I had my first son and found out that through unfortunate events, he will be my only child. Everything has been well for the last few years, but I have found out that my son has autism. It's a little early to find out to what degree. I am ashamed that I have let fear get the best of me. I fear so much for his future. If I could live forever, I would care for him forever. Never before have I been afraid to die. For the first time, I can't imagine dying and leaving him on his own. Letting go has never seemed to be a problem for me. I've never been attached to things or even myself. For the first time in my life, I have found the attachment that I don't think I can ever let go of. I wish everyone well. ❤❤❤

That's impossible. As long as humans exist, we'll have different cultures, religions because people can have different views on how the world should be run. And how do you decide what's the right way to run the world and what's the wrong way? Not everyone will agree and that's why we have authoritarian or totalitarian regimes. People who believe one vision of a society is the right one will then try to impose their view on others, as the Nazis did in Germany. Those who dissented or not part of their vision for the future of Germany were sent to concentration camps.

In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. You're the eternal house, and the rooms are infinitesimal. The house sees itself through these rooms (a physical form is a room in this case) and is constantly redecorating itself, like an automatic update, although it's happening totally unconsciously to see more and more and more of itself in a better way. It's a process which has its own intelligence almost like the heart knows exactly when to beat without your command.
