There's Nothing Left To Do But Let Go - Alan Watts On The Real You

A profound speech on the universe by Alan Watts. Original Audio sourced from: “Alan Watts - The World As Just So"
“Self-knowledge leads to wonder, and wonder to curiosity and investigation, so that nothing interests people more than people, even if only one's own person."
- Alan Watts. (1915 - 1973)

    This video is brilliant, thank you. It has given me an answer that I have been searching for: "A response of a no-deliberating mind is the response of a Buddha mind, or an unattached mind... but you must not imagine that this is necessarily a quick response. Because if you get hung up on the idea of responding quickly; the idea of quickness will be, itself, a form of obstruction."

I believe it should be seen as a mutual confirmation. The truth can be seen in any and all scenarios. It remains the same truth, it remains the same tao.

If y would see how silly my desisions still often enough are... but I deal with it in a most relaxed way possible and forgive myselves and I AM decisive to improve in different ways every day...different breathwork, practises.. loads to work on the Self! check out NDE's, will learn so much!

    Thank you a lot for making these videos. Alan Watts speaking with no music is already wonderful but if you add a good tune behind it and images, it becomes majestic, it feels like a perfect dream. With every video of Alan I discover more and more, but it has been in the last recent weeks that I really started to understand everything so clearly. Dont feel guilty for anything that you do. Let your emotions happen and dont think for a second you have done something wrong. This is the true liberation. Thank you Alan.

    But walking through a mirage,is a bit like riding a horse through a rainbow,when you get there,it's moved on down the road,just like the ego does ie sometimes it seems almost impossible to pin down and identify ,having admitted its existence within myself,I see it for its actual non existent nature,like Alan knew 51 years ago,so the trick with egos is as eckhart tolle recommends is first admission and recognition of theoretical existence, and keeping this in mind,control over it can to some degree be achieved, but total removal of it will never be fully brought about,because at least a fragment of it necessary for the human condition,and that was quite a mouthful,for me a casual observer.
