You Are Playing A Game - Alan Watts On Reality 

"I'm a human being, not a human doing." - Mooji

my experience largely sucks i want a refund :)

@@zandrokos can't say you're wrong here...

@@_the.awakening_ i will still keep trying to get what i can out of my life experience though

@@zandrokos just don't give up, things will get better if you do something about it

I didn't even know him until know. Wow. That last section invoked so much inside me: Death is always a guy who comes into a bar at 2 o'çlock in the morning and says "Time, gentlemen, please". And you say "Oh please, one more drink, not yet". Because you haven't really had the feeling that you ever had it, that you ever got there.

And after 10 years what have you learned, The man speaks in riddles. The only piece of advice I remember is "Don't chase the money" being single all my life I have worked the minimum and spent my life with family and seeking what interests me.

it is one of my favorites as well and try to listen to it every so often so i dont get distracted by bullshit. also i am currently living with one of my brothers who had a kid late in life who is now 9 years old. his mother is a fuckng bitch to hiim and loses her shit whenever their son doesnt get perfect grades or doesnt want to do the things she expects him to do. i hear her scream "shut the fuck up" at him numerous times a day because like her he likes people to know where he stands and she is blind to that.

@@Breca Love it. Would you say that you probably live the least stressful life among the people you know?

@@AnomalyBelleza Yes I have told people many times I have "Lived the life of Riley"

good luck to you♥

congrats 🎉 you’re lucky when you got 2 little ones

Congratulations. The best gift you can give them is your full presence.

If you try to be happy, this means that you presume you are not happy now but you will be happy by trying, by putting faith in future. This point of view is doomed to fail. One can not try to be happy, just as one cannot try to be sad or angry. In order for someone to be happy, one, first of all, should not try to be happy. Then happiness may come. For me, happiness is absence of suffering. Suffering is the result of desiring. If one stops desiring, may happiness come.

@@Falas5898 it can only be felt in the moment. People are in trance and expect the future to bring them happiness. Happiness has to happen in the present moment. It’s the only time we feel anything. What we do matters, being conscious of ourself through mindfulness and meditation is the key.

There is no future, and there is no beginning nor end.

Very profound!@@JonasAnandaKristiansson

Because when you make plans for the future & they MATURE, you are, if you can't live in the present, you are not able to enjoy the future for which you have planned. 💯

things like this make me regret not having kids. sort of.

@@zandrokosdon’t ever regret not having kids. This world is going to hell in a hand basket, you don’t want to watch your children suffer all their life.

@@WatchtheWaters12 be aware of the unconsious anti human narrative playing out in your energy space, cause it's litterally demonic to put it nicely. Light pierces darkness and the world is waking up. Find yours

Im still jealous of you...

Absolutely amazing!

I am not sure what you mean. Are you ok? You wrote that as if you are ending your life. Why would you feel you need to do that? Please reply. I am worried for you.

@@Musika1220 I wasn't asking you. I haven't seen anything else written by you anyway.

@@angr3819Calm down weirdo

😂​@@thorodinloki

lmao@@thorodinloki

If I could sit down with any person from history, Alan would definitely be in the top 3.

living in the moment is literally how i survived homelessness.

I have lived life to the fullest, and then somehow I got caught into life as most people live it. I can tell that what most live is not life, is not good, is just a set of instructions that are followed until you die. Since most people never saw the other side, it must feel so dark and lonely. And I can honestly tell that it is, it is dark and lonely, and I am glad I had the oportunity to really live life

I just subscribed.. I hope you reach your goals in life. Just remember desire is the route of suffering.

@@shiftinggears9896 Whoever you are, I don't know you personally but I can say that you're one of the non-judgmental and open-minded people who is not fixated on tangible or external factors in order to learn from someone like me. Just because someone doesn't have a piece of paper as a credential, doesn't mean that person is not entitled to share personal experiences with the hope & intention to inspire others. Keep up with whatever it is that you're doing to improve mankind or improving your life even to a slight degree each day. This is just one part of a bigger puzzle for creating my RU-vid channel about holistic health. I literally could have died back when I was 14 years old due to major depression but here I am right now replying to you, a RU-vidr, who's full of fulfillment and dedication to help others to be a better version of themselves. I ain't better than anyone else but my old self. That's all that really makes this RU-vid thing more meaningful and enjoyable. Thanks so much for your support! I am hoping that you can join me with this endless personal development journey! :)

It's setup like that so you can be an excellent consumer and taxpayer.

We know nothing. Dont act like you do

There’s so many people that parrot these same things but none of you ever actually try to change.

@@comradecameron3726 I certainly have 👍

I want to know as well so bad. Someone tell me pls

Alan watts is the man. I recommend When You’re Silent it Speaks

@@seanh0123 Thanks! I will listen to that.

Right 😂

😂I see where you're coming from

Makes sense for the feeling of suddenly realising Me & You are God. Always been friend. Life is not that serious. Its just a play. A Way for God to Experience Himself.

@@ebenwrogemann2512 I was god, but i chose to stay there. God is literally just an aware vibration in infinite void, there is nothing besides being aware in the presence and not knowing how you came into existence. And there are no others, it's all you.

@@mistervova11 i agree. Tho not the same sentiment. But the same principle view of what we are . Meaning what ever God is, he is everthing so. We as Human might get it but we can never understand it.

@dalepointer9414 - a thousand likes for this comment for you my friend!!

Religion is not the same.

Btw. He is Me. He is You friend. We are all, Everything, God Experiencing Himself.

this is likely closer to the truth than you realize.

And what is the purpose of just accumulating the experiences? This is like accumulating “ things”.

​@@tam-tam1970 God or higher power created these "things" for us to experience them so why not live a full life and experience more things that fulfill you as you play the game. Death is the only thing absolute here on Earth so would you want to die still dreaming or die happy that you experienced a great life.

@@KISSTRRADESto live that “greater life” depends on how we understand it, I guess.

Nothing wrong with a big promotion or whatever that is. The most important bit is what is there before us today. You can definitely put in the work, but there really is never a guarantee that you will even get to 40, let alone get that promotion. Life really isn't a straight line with definite checkpoints. Things change when we least expect it.

@@blasiomuhinda5913 that’s why it’s about the progress more than the goal itself. Even if you don’t reach the goal, the fact that you moved towards it and are better than you were yesterday is what’s really important. You might not reach level 40 but level 32 is pretty damn good when you started at 12

jesus sais have i not said ye are gods?

@@invertedexistence that doesn’t invalidate what I said.

Click on the link under the title, that says 'more' you will find a link to complete lectures. Or just do a RU-vid search for 'Alan Watts'
