I've always heard all my life; an artist can't make a living. This is usually said with a sneer and they look at you like you're hopeless. Value is in the material. I love cleaning, cooking real food and gardening. I don't make a living with it, but I enjoy my life. Alan Watts is my go to for the reminder of what's real in life.

When you are an artist; They wait til you are dead then sample your work, and leave your loved ones crazy or dead. You can put suave words over the situation if you’d like. Even though art has deep cultural value, and financial value, the business aspects feel they deserve the money more cuz they look at what we do as musings and play. Imma -- a record exec throat over it ---. You hire and pay TOTAL LAMES, to play solos. -- that.

Listening to Alan Watts has helped SAVE MY LIFE 💯🫂☯️🦋

An excellent talk by Watts, as relevant today as when it was given--perhaps even more so.

THE BEST ALAN WATTS LECTURE. EVER.

There can’t be many Alan watts you tube videos I haven’t watched but that was the most meaningful ,the way food should be served and eaten for one but how many of us do it😢

Thank you for uploading the lectures in full. Like life itself, Alan's ideas are free to unfold when left uncurated.

Wow what a profound truth, especially but especially about the families with children. In Cuba since I was 8 yrs I learned the trades of working with my father in construction and mixing concrete with a shovel in the sidewalk, not some concrete machines oh no, we had to mixed it up with shovels, placed concrete in a bucket and Carry it up to the house to rebuild our whole house in concrete blocks, he also taught me how to crop Many of the plants we had for food in our yard and I used to LOVE to help him in mechanics as he repaired his Company Truck, as for my mother at10 yrs she taught me how to cook full meals and Sow and Wash the clothes with my hands for we didn't have, laundry machines like in the western country, it was all by hands and to clean the whole house well before me and my brother would go out to play, otherwise we would not be allowed to go out and play with the kids of our neighborhood street... So I says Huge Amen to this Principles in which I will always Carry in my heart mind and soul for my kids.!!! Beautiful speech of truth. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you Alan Watts Project

Good choice recording this over the U2 tape.

Thank you for sharing this, it speaks directly to me at this time of life and is so important for modern millennials to hear. I will share it with my teens so they can understand.

@OG Steele : Try reading history kid and learn, please learn, that millenials are THE most spoiled rotten generation EVER to be in the West, you obviously know very little about the World at large so try getting out of mummies basement and travel far away. If, or when, the Internet crashes, or is turned of by some fascist Government, you will be in deep doo-doo, as your generation doesnt even know how to light a camp fire and you will be unable to do google search for the information needed.

It is thus that the world goes round.

They made us miss everything.

If it’s meant to be, then so it shall be , wether you do or don’t contribute its already happening exactly how it’s suppose to! Even if what truth you see is everything you’ve denied it will be completely forced on you just like the sheer existence we question an deny to our own narrative! If you understand then be an example for those who reject the truth of our existence! We will never understand ourselves we just have to try an allow ourselves the option to give life to thoughts without weight of necessity an importance!

So excited to see the AWP put up this channel!

Wow! Nailing it!

Any way of making the audio a little better? I love this lecture, but it's pretty hard to hear even with volume turned up all the way.

Alan watts-the businessman to out business men.

8:45 "supposed" WONDERFUL!!!

22:37 a synonom for "agrarian" is: relating to or constituting an ideal rural paradise: the region was not quite the Arcadian idyll he had depicted" Originating from Greek; so I assume here Plato. Play 1 of Socrates was played maybe 12 mins ago.

What a pity the recording is quite muffled and definitely other sounds going on not related to the original recording. Excellent lecture.

Money is an abstraction - yes, but it buys food, and as much as I love Alan, I'm sure he never suffered for money - even on his ferry boat talks.

Does anyone else hear Bono wailing quietly in the background?

U2 songs are in background or am I hallucinating Alan?

I Have Always Enjoyed Listening To 🕊RIPOWER 🕊Mr. Alan Watts, I need To Express My Sincerest Gratitude To Who Created This Channel and Posted The Many Videos. Please Know You are Very Much Appreciated. Have A Blessed Safe, Healthy, Content Life, Filled With Abundance In Positivity Health- Contentment with everlasting L💛VE - & Prosperity. Peace, Carmenlidia13

What ever happened to the live stream? I miss it. I like to have something playing all night to help me sleep.

Is U2 playing in the back ground?

did someone convert this to digital from a noisy cassette tape inside a primitive consumer all in one stereo system? I can hear a radio broadcast and U2 in the background...then someone starting and stopping a tape. A tape of a tape recorded with a microphone? Ah the journeys Watts stories must have went thru...

💙🙏💙

Alan Watts quote highlights from this video: “The only jobs worth working at are those which you thoroughly enjoy.” “The thing that has to be understood fundamentally in the whole process of education for life is that money is an abstraction. It cannot of itself buy any pleasure whatsoever because all pleasures involve skill and love-enough love to discipline yourself to enjoy the pleasure.” “An education in the real sense is not preparation for life, it is actually living.” “There is no point whatsoever in making plans for the future except for those people who are capable of living in the present.”

I can hear U2 playing in the background

wish the videi was a bit louder

Why is U2s With or Without You playing in the background of this video very faintly? Its such a distraction from his words.

his works says about the indian caste system in which childrens are associated with fathers occupation

Précieuse parole

Bleak, but recognizable.

13:34 okay can anyone hear a voice before Allan? Or am I going crazy

These seascapes are just too ruddy obvious. How about a travel log of cities, wars, poor people going about their everyday business etc. The contrast will complement the words I think. Maybe a camel at an oasis. The sun tanned face of a proud elderly woman. I could go on of course.

Sebi. There is a devil.
