He was a lazy so-called mystic. Used to love him. I outgrew him.

I've achieved that essential realization of what experience is, how it is independent of the memories and yet memories inform it. It's perfectly logical, just takes some rational thought over a while to understand it. Maybe some people have a better analytical intuition than others and so get there sooner.

critique: needs more flare, don't just talk in the same cadence and and tone otherwise it is harder to differentiate between the beginning and end of your sentences. IMO

4:47 I have also come to the conclusion that life is pointless. I hate that conclusion, because of all the pain and how I'm trying to find a reason not to off myself.
7:59 Or rather what would or would not produce income, productivity and survival today are completely unrelated.
Most excellent video!

Alan Watts reminds me of a wise old turtle who once said: “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.”

CIA level brainwashing. I saw a video of him where he drew a butt and a dick on the board and spoke about buddism with NLP inserted euphemisms for anal sex

I'm certain Watts would be a great fan of the "It is what it isss" mindset.

I dont like the way he explains things,he sounds exactly like a priest. Also he abandoned his family. Some people are realists and some people like their ears to be touched by phrases that sound beautiful and impose that everything is great. This is the methodology for justifying yourself. Good role models do more,talk less nonsense. I swear this could be your average politician. On the other hand,the nature thing i wont disagree and the organism theory.
