Alan Watts: Psychology of Mystical Experience - Being in the Way Ep. 13 - Hosted by Mark Watts 

I expanded my mind on LSD in the service of my country and realized that I didn’t want to be in the Navy and my desire to be anti war and to be my true nature a loving human being not consumed with hate. My point some drugs in the proper use are very effective in straightening out your mental state. Thanks be to God for this great man, I am in his debt for the wisdom he has given me.

Allen Watts has impacted my life in Elegant & soothing therapeutic way to the ultimate truth= We are spirit having a human experience.Thank you, Mr Watts.

Iam addicted to listening to Alan Watts.....he has changed my life already.....thanks for the video!

What a gift to have these talks available to us for free… what a wonderful being.

This is fantastic! I always feel uplifted when I listen to Alan Watts. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Alan Watts is a one of a kind teacher. He has changed my life. Namaste and ty

Thanks Mark! I miss your father. .. listened to his lectures for years. I recently came back to Australia after 20 years living, working - and studying the Dao - in China. The Dao de Jing, though very simple in meaning, can be very difficult to truly understand. As you would know, "the Dao that can be told, is not the eternal Dao" Yet, your father managed to navigate a course around and through it in a manner that helped me understand 'my meaniing' through understanding the Way. And he did so in his uniquely light, concise, amusing and infinitely insightful way.

Allan has changed the way I think on all things. I appreciate the availability of these lectures so much. We are so fortunate to have them all these years later. He was a man ahead of his time. Thank you Mark.

Thank Nothingness for Alan Watts who has helped me have more awareness and peace of mind throughout my adult life. And thank you, Mark, for keeping his talks continually available to everyone.

Incredible Jnana Yoga! Not, to me, for the intellect to muddle over, but the heart to feel its way through. What I'm ready to integrate will stay with me and guide my next steps as my Soul dictates. Thanks to those who share these 😎💝🙏

I came across Alan Watts about a year or two ago. I absolutely love all his wisdom(s)!! I can relate to him and he brings me the answers I seek when in need. Thank you for putting all his works together. ❤

I hang out with Alan Watts on a daily! I love that you are sharing his words! Thank you so much 🙏.

Alan has given me so much peace.

It's not that this is IT. Words are words and IT is IT, including the words. But words can point to and inspire. Alan's way... his comparisons, descriptions and surprises inspire me like only a very few can. I'm feeling gratitude and thank you for making it possible to hear these words.

I can’t begin to tell you how much these lectures mean to me, thank you.

Im so glad you have brought your fathers talks to us Mark. I could not ask for more. Thank you.

Thank you Mark. Years ago I was at the houseboat when your father hosted a meeting with Krishnamurti. What struck me most was the childlike/maturity , awe and understanding of your father. You are doing important work. Thank you.

The fear of death and search for an answer has brought me to discover Alan Watts

Mark I can't tell you the impact your father has had on my understanding of spiritual experience. he was the first ever spiritual philosopher I discovered. He's so articulate. I listen to him every day. I do believe that his purpose and legacy will impact humanity for all the days and years that remain ♥️

I loved this today. Alan is a treasure to all seekers, all beings. Thank you!

Recently (at 54) discovered this brilliant man. So grateful his voice from the past brings me so present. The timing was sublime. Like finding that another piece to the puzzle in this game.. Thank you Alan, Mark.. Eckhart, Ram Dass ❤ Jeaus ❤ God ❤

I loved this!!! I love Alan!! Thank you Mark!!

I remember being in a psych ward almost catatonic… and then i suddenly realized where I was and I started to remember some of Alans commentary and then I just laughed a little and started to behave myself until I was released a few days later. Its funny how inflated my ego got before getting commited.. I wanted to change the world and was lost in magical thinking, at times time would sort of speed up and slow down at the same time (i realize now i was standing still on the side of the road for hours) or id make up stories and go on quests 😂 cleaning up the house or the hiking trails near the house and performing funny little rituals getting rid of my belongings or organizing tables outside of the house so that things would be balanced (pingpong tables full of typical garrage stuff but to me everything meant something different like ferrilizers and sheer’s were opposite so i had them on the same table 😅. At one point my friends convinced me to go to a hospital and get help and I remember surrendering and although I was convinced they were witches or something like that and I would be sacrificed or something, I accepted it and went along with it. The time at the hospital to the psych ward was probably the most intense visual and audible hallucinations and to be honest alot of them are kinda funny now and my attitude the entire time was sort of between terrified and exited. I went through several ups and downs for a few years trying to process everything that happened that lead up to that but looking back on it… im so happy that that happened to me and I was able to come out of it I was weak overweight stuttered and had an inferiority complex and my mind was foggy beforehand and afterwards although i was a bit traumatized and depressed that most of my fantasies were just that. I slowly started to accept reality and my shadow (before I refused to accept that I was capable of being bad although I was really just afraid to be) started to become myself and yeah

Thank you Mark.. Comment for algorithm.

Psychedelic are just an amazing discovery. Is quite fascinating how effective they are for depression and stress disorder. Really saved my life.

I Love Your Dad, a Truly Magnificent Light * I Love You Mark, for sharing him with generations, yet unborn! Thank You! ❤️

What an amazing lecture …. Masterpiece Interpretation …. Thank you for playing this lecture …..🌞

Mark grateful you sharing! Your father was amazing man

«Nothing is what brings something into focus. And this nothingness symbolized by the crystal, is your own eyeball, your own consciousness and the clear space in which all the stars have freedom to be seen.»

I’m just discovering this and am so very mesmerized. Thank you 💜

Thank you very much, I'm always on the search for new recordings of your father and never came across this one. I wish you and your family all the best! :)

I have been following Alan Watts for years. Huge fan. 24 months ago, began a deep-dive into Kabbalah (Chassidut, not RU-vid Kabbalah), and the similarities are so beautiful. Thank you for making all of this available!

what a wonderful talk indeed.

Strange to think that Alan died shortly after the first lecture as he mentioned that he was 57 at the time and that was arouhd the age that he passed away. He was so full of verve and so full of life.

Best Mentor Ever. For Sure.

This is brilliant. Thank you for sharing this.

Ur dad is LEGENDARY

A brilliant mind, and beautiful laugh. Very attractive human. Can’t stop listening. ❤️ Thank you for sharing

He's awesome! I was -5 month when this was produce

Mark was there ever a lecture where your dad made good on his threat to subject the audience to an extended silence? Always thought that would be funny and profound.

Alan Watts is always good when I need to feel some existential dread.

26:20 - Wow. How pertinent this comment is to the American, Russian, Chinese debacle right now!

Very good. Thanks for speaking your mind about the military (not only those in the so-called West, but all of them).

Who else shared a moment with Alan Watts across the gulf of half a century by humming with him at 31:05? 🤚

I just realized that i heard it again. Kind of important to me

26:33 - so relevant now with the war with Russia and focus on defensive technology. ❤

Loved it. Screwing the plastic doll🤣

I liked the part when he was asking the question: can the observer observe themselves during the act of observing? I found that I was able to do so

thnank you mark may god bless you and your family

Thank You, Allen, thanks for preserving and sharing this material. Michael Jeremy Leavitt

Thank you Alan, miss you...

Oh wow the original recording I’m seated and fastened thanks for the original upload

That photo... He is so young there!

Thank you

Watts is a master

brilliant thank you.

Wish i could find a genuine teacher who has not used psychadelics to get insight mystical experience etc. Im not in a position to cheat or fastrack myself into such wondrous realms.

Without contrast there is nothing.

wow thank you

Excellent. Thank you.🙏

You rock WATTS ! !

At the end before thunder a light flashed behind me so bright like a flash on a camera….twice, even my dog looked back💯

"Watts" is profound and "enlightening"...

Thank you❤

☁ Puff Puff Pass ☁ Namaste all

The most original thinker in these days (and thisahere country) of talent impoverishment

❤A BIG FAN HERE!

OM

Thank you young My Buddha always bless you and Abide with you and yours.

Are there CD’s available

❤❤❤❤

What is that word he says at around 11:45 about ancient world passing something onto you on the "QT"(autogenereated subtitles say that abbreviated letters). He keeps using the word multiples times....however I cannot seem to make sense out of it. Thanks in advance!!

❤❤

So that's why we want to know about nothingness, the beyond, because that's us, nothingness is that right?

❤

I am having a spontaneous illumination now. 3rd eye opening, visit from the holy Spirit, Christ consciouness, the Dau, Nirvana, oh, I am turning off now 😵‍💫...now it sucks again 🙃

World Peace. One Piece at a time.

7sharp..listen to it✌️

It's like he knew he only had a few months to live😢

While plyin piano Very fast In far part of room An object topple over

Thought I'd been born before

I’m psychedelic enough Holographic universe is my game, no time, place just creations. I have addenda beyond your imagination. Stay awake my friend.

Mark? Yr dad thought alot.,...do you feel the same imposition or has his thinking brought you around to a place where you don't have to think so much?

The last section seems as if it were a part of a video…is this true? Would have dug to see where he chose to live. I too have always been called strange by people who loved their boring lives. Heheheh.

@ 38:10 He mentioned there is no single pole magnet. He is wrong. Proof? Can't see the forest for the trees. The negative can be replaced by the neutral for the same reaction. The same is true of the positive. Great stuff. Thank you for showing science and spiritual to be the same.

🤝🙏🧘‍♂️

Profound Not mentio ed in any psych or philo class The known and the unknown It makes sense

Ear ringing is you starting to activate your dna it’s not “tennitus”
