Alan Watts

38 posts in this topic

As many of you know, Alan Watts was a very wise philosopher. Personally, I've benefited a great deal by listening to him. I don't know of many teachers/philosophers that get right down to it like he does.

You can type Alan Watts into youtube, and almost anything that comes up will be pure golden nuggets of profound wisdom.

It wouldn't be right to not mention the official holders of his IP, and curators of his work, the Alan Watts organization https://www.alanwatts.org/ 

Please add your favourite Alan Watts videos and so on here!

 Cant get enough of his lectures !

Agreed, I've listened to many of them over and over, and still get stuff out of them. 

Your video seems to not allow streaming as an embed, maybe you can find another source?

Love Alan Watts, I have all of his lectures downloaded on my mp3 player. He has some great books too, "The Way of Zen" was the first spirtual book I read in this life. 


The how is what you build, the why is in your heart.

true, it's like endlessly falling through groundless floors

the art is to surrender and not to grasp onto anything <3
