Complimenti, ottimo lavoro..ma fammi capire: uno dovrebbe fare mansioni senza neanche che gli siano richieste e senza retribuzione? A casa mia si chiama sfruttamento..questo punto non l'ho capito..mi assumi per fare il centralino e devo pulire anche i bagni senza che nemmeno me lo chiedi, e alla stessa paga?
I'm an beginner listener to Mr Watts, if anyone knows more about him, has he ever taken any mushrooms/ayahuasca.....? He must be to to have this kind of philosophy, he is unreal, one of the tops with Terence Mckenna/Jung....
I think he did experiment with psychedelics. But you do not need to do so to "have this kind of philosophy"... When I found Watts, what blew my mind the most was that We had the "same philosophy", ideas ect ect... He passed away almost a decade before I was born. Listening to Alan Watts has helped SAVE MY LIFE 💯💯🫂🕉️☯️
The name is Chuang Tzu, a Taoist philosopher in his own right. He is, in fact, the 2nd most popular Taoist philosopher. Where the Tao Te Ching seems dry and sober, Chuang Tzu's Inner Chapters uses humor and a sense of the absurd to illustrate Taoist principles. Sometimes his name is spelled Zhuangzi. There are uploads on RU-vid using both spellings (including some by Watts).
Thank you :-) . Do you have access to the follow-up lecture in which he will talk more about art - and the artist - in Chinese/Japanese/Buddhist culture?
38 m. Freud to Jung in NY: "forget it, I am a married man" - what a hypocryt he was! he had an affair with his brother's wife and both he an Jung had an affair with that brilliant Russian psychologist who studied with them and then, let her go back to the Soviet Union to die. That is the reason a philosopher friend does not like either :(

Individual early 15c., "one and indivisible, inseparable" (with reference to the Trinity), from Medieval Latin individualis, from Latin individuus "indivisible," from in- "not, opposite of" (see in- (1)) + dividuus "divisible," from dividere "divide" (see divide (v.)). Original sense now obsolete; the word was not common before c. 1600 and the 15c. example might be an outlier. Sense of "single, separate, of but one person or thing" is from 1610s; meaning "intended for one person" is from 1889.
It has been stated that Watts liked his booze. So what? Many, many throughout history were drinkers. Churchill for one. Watts was a brilliant man. A legend.@@realburgergod
@@realburgergodAikido is only being used as metaphor here though, I feel this is barely relevant to the lecture. I don’t see how being punched in the face factors here.
@@charliedigby7719 nah. Also, the uploader has a choice on how many ads are on something, and they chose way too many. Plenty of other uploaders that don't do this stuff.
~@10 min: A good talk about Kegon, Avatamsaka sutra, interpenetration - everything is connected with each other. ( and why no mind / samadhi will help connect brain and heart (ie the laws of nature). Or go beyond ego @ ~@48 min till end to find you (no sef - everything) is at the center of the universe.

We always act spontaneously, because what we think we are (the mind) only ever experiences thoughts and sensations. As Watts reminds us: "You don't control your thoughts. You don't control your feelings." We learn, thank God. And we have a conscience. But we're not in control. We think we are, and that's the source of our consistent clenching in our bodies. Start paying attention to the clenching (dare yourself to feel your anxiety at all times), while beginning to admit that no: nothing could ever choose its thoughts. It can only ever have them. Even God. What do I mean by this? Thoughts occur. Desires occur. How would you choose a thought? By looking in a bag of thoughts and picking one? How would you pick? By looking at each and admitting to yourself at least the thought or thoughts that make you feel desire (for the thought). And yet you don't choose if you feel desire. You just do, or you don't. And hence we're not in control. Of anything. Nothing could ever be. And yet everything is in accord with something (God, the Tao). We never know what we'll think next. Life is therefore the constant surprise that Chesterton talks about. And finally, since you're not in control, you can't choose to see this, you can't choose for my words to resonate with you. They will or they won't. And in that same way we can't choose to have faith (trust in God, or the Tao)... and since we can't choose to, we can finally relax about whether we have it or not. And that relaxing is faith.
I see what you’re saying.. as UG krishnamurti once said “there are no thoughts… what you are experiencing is not thought but about thought” Thought is always in the past. The thought MUST come before the recognition of that thought. Absurd Sounding I know… but impossible to deny.
The parable of the Chinese farmer was my introduction to A. Watts. That parable is mind expanding because you realize what little (if any) control you have over outcomes, as good or bad as they may be. That one really helped me to settle down.
Imagine a genuis philosopher like alan watts recommended an other great philosopher Laozu , yeah everyone here knows what its means 😊just mindblowing, i feel so lucky in life to discover ancient great wisdom. The pleasure of knowing and discover new ideas is princeless in my opinion.
