50 years since he passed fyi. - but i agree this man is timeless & it makes his precise commentary on the modern society we inhabit even more mystical, he could clearly see where humanity is heading & so much more... i love those last words: "i wish i could figure out how to do all this without my body" the humour and insight in those words is pure magik :) - and here we are with this Jedi illuminating & even more powerful once death cut him down

Incredible. Even to the point where he says we will be able to plug our brains into a computer. To say that in the 60s is amazing when there is only talk of its possibility for the last few years
This man has become immortal.
Thank you, Mark, every day for your father's wisdom.❤ I love his laughter (giggles), which moves me with joy. Blessings for you by being by side and being involved in his work as a young man. Ah, Krishnamurti!!!❤
AN intelligence and wisdom that has proven prophetic, with a voice that draws you in and demands attention. Thanks old son.
Watts is prophetic in the first few sentences.
I love how this cat gets lost in his own thoughts. It's like walking on a path , he goes from one sight to next, hey look at that butterfly, then a bird, hey there's a tree, but always on the path traveling the same direction.

This man could save humanity from itself from the otherside.. Every school college university etc & every corner of the globe needs to hear this wisdom from loud speakers. Absolutely Incredible life & world changing higher wisdom from a true mystic sage philosopher legend.. Thank you Alan & your son for sharing it with us all on planet earth with our modern technology that thankfully we have now if only for hearing these lectures... I wish i had a true teacher like you at school..Your still here without your body Alan & your really helping me & i truly hope the whole world will eventually hear your incredible inspirational life & hopefully one day world changing wisdom 🎭🧘♂️🦋🌎🕊
This man explained to me everything my own mind had been telling me my entire experience here. As if he had been tapped into my mind years before I was born. Thanks Alan.

He was human after all. It's an experience for sure lol
This is exactly what our lives are. His view, his perspective of getting out of humanity, and being able to look back at it and explain it. That is a beautiful gift, and I'm thankful he shares it with us.
I have become dependent on his voice each day. He was so brilliant and had the ability to eloquently convey his thoughts. He has raised me up in vibration by educating me on a deep level.
Ive listened to a lot of Alan Watts. Personally, I think this his best lecture.
What a beautiful blessing this man was. He was so very influential on my awakening..❤️😊🙏
His last words hit hard
Shouldn’t surprise me but it’s incredible how prescient Allan was. That he was able to predict microchips implanting into the brain is so bizarre and extraordinarily foresighted.

It’s hard if not impossible to find someone that talks like him, though I myself am him himself as though he is me himself. Yet it amazes me that start of waking up I’ll listen to him, when I work, when I almost do a lot of anything due to how it puts me in a state of zen, a moment of peace or understanding without understanding it will make sense. It makes sense, thank the gods which is Alan and the above all gods of gods I appreciate this man as a genuine human being just as I do Jim Carrey, Andrew Tate and so forth.
Gratitude beyond words 🙏🙏
in awe as he predicts wifi and the internet

Whenever I've been sure I've connected with the divine, every time it has felt light and humorous
18:50 Thomas Moore in "Care of the Soul" talks about the same thing - going into the feeling completely and not dismissing it. I had an experience where I was in terrible grief, and threw myself into it for 3 days and after that, it was done. We live in a culture that tells us "it's going to be okay" "you'll get over it" "don't cry" and so on. It does us a disservice.
Love to listen to these lectures. Thank You Very Much Mark for sharing these with the 🌍 Bless You
Alan was a prophet
I Love how he predicted the concept of Neurolink.
Thanks for doing these Mark. It's great to have some context.
Thank you 🙏
trying listening to his podcast with End memory playing in the background. Its friggin awesome
I read Alan's "This Is It" in 1970 at age 18. If I had to live my life again and could only read one book, it would be that one. The title is the closest, most succinct English-word phrase that describes the Ultimate Reality.

@@chrisbennett6260- The Ultimate Reality is the present moment. It's the realization that we live in an eternal Now ("This Is It") and that the self does not end at the skin. Or equally, one could say, there never was a self to begin with. Once this is realized, all philosophies, religions, gods, concepts disappear. One would certainly become (like Buddha, Zen Masters, Taoists) an atheist because one has realized something much bigger. It's like realizing a creator is unnecessary. Or another way to phrase it would be: creator and creation are the exact same thing.

It would be an honor to meet you someday Mark, I'm sure you get this all the time. But just to sit in nature and speak of your father, what he was like... That'd be an astonishing event. Thank you for this post, his talks have saved my life.
Alan was a Bodhisattva and I am in line to follow him.
He is so right about the building a human brain and interfacing with a computer. Artificial intelligence is actually a model of the human limbic system.
Your dad is awesome. Thanks for keeping his message alive.
For now ...we as humans have Scattered mind .... which needs a way of CONCLUSIVE INTELLECT which takes us to Wisdom.💙🙏
Listen to lectures by this guy most nights as I go to sleep, a loose track quit a lot. But something about the voice and content ZZZZ
What an incredible capacity of prophecy and anticipation Alan Watts had!
Excellent Advice and a good message.
I appreciate you more then you know. I enjoy Manly P Hall however your messages have now propelled you past him and on to The G.O.A.T 🐐
Thank you for sharing this!! ✌❤🔥
Amazing how on the money he was on his talk in the intro completely knew what direction we headed in
Appreciations …. This is really amazing ….🌞
Omg! I love him! He was so amazing. I love this talk! 🥰💗
This is fascinating background information. I’ve listen to public radio sense the late 70s and I only came across all of the lights in the last two years. Thank you KZread algorithm for taking me away from “human design“ and to the guy that that speaker was heavily borrowing his cadence from. Full circle.
Such a topic …. Sometimes the sensation ( no matter good or bad upon its measure and receiver’s perception of that energies ) can destroy the body or do a dramatic accidental change in the body …..🌞
Thank you !! Your father was a great teacher and great man 🪬❤️🔥
Alan watts is for sure an Emanation of Manjushri
He could see the internet before we ever thought of it... wow
He predicted the future!
Thank you, Mark, your father has been a great favorite of mine and a great influence on me since I first read "This Is It" in the 70s when I was maybe 14 years old ...
🙏🏼 thank you
At 9:00 he preempted the internet as we know it now. Plugging our brains into a computer
Awesome! ❤

Alan conveys as Dante & is as the same to me
Our emotions are triggered when our desires are not met or satisfied. Intellectuals avoid social gatherings due to fear of being out of control. Meditation has its limitations; enlightenment is possible when our mind is awake, its desire is to understand the causes of our emotions. Freedom from hate and anger is possible when we understand them. The teachings of Spinoza’s and Gurdjieff’s will help develop a deeper meaning to your life.

This man was amazing down to his Bob Dylan impersonation....
the everything else feeling and the you feeling are two poles of one and the same process, so that the real you is what lies between these poles and includes both of them. ... the knower of all things (the knower in all of us) doesn't know itself the same way the fire doesn't burn itself and knife doesn't cut itself -> nothing to God would be more mysterious than God we can experience ourselves as something that just happens ... there's no self without the other
Why abandoning the potential in our own temple ? Crazy but is it a lesson part of evolution or devolution which are one thing ? I think so but not from direct observation.🙏🙏🌞🌍
Any info on what year this one was recorded?
How do you comunicate so much beauty? It's Incredible. I just look at it and it brings me to tears. Because I'm looking at it and I'm looking at myself. Yeah you've never really seen a computer until you've seen it on 5meo DMT. Until you recognize that it's you and that's basically what Infinity is. Sort of like I love you, no I love you, no I love you, no I love you, no I love you more, I love you more, I love you more. Who can love who more? And whoever can love who more is God. You see that long laundry list of stuff about you that you don't love. God loves all of it. I'm sorry for not loving more, that's the only thing you have to be sorry about. Thank you. Thank You For Love! And at this point you realize that that's it, that's the point. That's the only lesson in life. That's my only job. Is to love. Everything else is idiocy and then what you do is you say I love you. For the first time in your life you say I love you because you really understand what that phrase means and you fall in love with God. But as it throws it out there, it's gentle so he throws it out there but then you say oh I can't love it and then what God will say in return is, it's okay. I love that you are not capable of love. I love that. And when that hits you. That's what fills you with enough love to overcome your resistance to love even that next level thing that you could do. No it can't be love. Of course it's love! what else could it be! It's love! No oh my God this is impossible! Of course it's love how could it be anything else!? How could I be so stupid as to think it's anything else. And God is like of course it's love.
