  • I really like the background music.... what is the tittle?

  • TITTIES!!!!!! :DDDDDD

  • @CobaltSlayer42 You got distracted by the pot of gold and missed a completely beautiful rainbow, sir. :P

  • I'm fat and I'll never get a girl friend.

  • @beepyepyep "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." Do this and I promise you everything else will fall into place.

  • @beepyepyep Have you tried eatin less and exercisin? Or just bein more attractive to women?

  • @beepyepyep theres just more of you to love, the right girl won't love your for your body, she'll love you for your heart, your mind and your unique essence.

  • I AM!

  • You are me and I am you, I'll always be with you

  • There's been a bunch of QUALITY Alan Watts tribute vids on youtube lately, which is freaking awesome! Two of them struck me as particularly good - "The Real You" by melodysheep is very hip & "The Way of Waking Up" should've been called "shazam", or "Satori 101"...both we're EXTRA good! And after all, Alan's echo needs to be heard - NOW more than ever, folks.

    The Ego, Fear & Desires - transcendence of these is the pathway to the temple!

  • If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a RESOUNDING GONG or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am NOTHING. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain NOTHING.

  • I am patient. I am kind. I do not envy nor do I boast. I am not proud, rude, self seeking, easily angered and I keep no record of wrong doing. I do not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. I always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres and never fail. I am love.

  • WHO?....AM...I!?

    who.... am ...i?

    FUUUUCK!!

  • I think, therefore I am.

  • Boobs

  • I am - a force of my desires(!), passions(!) - that's love and hatred to surround people, instead of thinking and words about them.

    When the person grows spiritually, he starts to take responsibility on himself - begins to love and hate himself. But when he come in area of final self-knowledge - he understands, that more material people(relatives, neighbours, chief, the father and mother - most important (!)), are responsible for evil. Then he starts to hate them, and to love himself.

  • who the hell am I

  • @ISt0leTheCookies NO-THING

  • U2 sucks... Over rated

  • One leaves the ocean of love to venture through the womb of life, so as to forget one is loved unconditionally. No greater joy is there, then the surprise of finding this ocean again.

  • We are god but god doesnt even know what it is, how can it with no beginning no end truely is a pointless question to ask, so just 'let it be' as Paul McCartney would sing. Other words... stop looking and you will see all you need to know.

  • I didn't consciously hear anything he said from 1:00 to 1:10.

  • Dont dwell on the question, the only reason it interests you is it has no answer. You can only BE the answer. Dwell on the answer, Nisargadatta's "I am that", like he said, by completely disregarding everything you are not, which is anything describable, anything with any label or property that the mind attempts to give it.

  • The song name is ??

  • That was a nice clip.

  • Very nice indeed ...

  • 1:03 BOOOOOOOOBBBBBIIIIIIEESSSSS

  • Ah, footage from Baraka, a great movie.

  • 80k Brah

  • In Lakesh.

    I am another you.

    I do not know if God exists but i know this...we are all equal in the eys of God...In Lakesh

  • Even that twat "Bono" can't spoil this.

  • lazy, all this footage is stolen from baraka

  • The answer to the question "Who am I?" is a lot more simple, than a lot of people think.

    The essence that you are is consciousness itself. Everything is consciousness or energy. You are the "I Am that I Am". You are birthless and deathless consciousness, you are quite literally infinite.

    And yes, it is indeed mysterious. We cannot see our true essence.

  • Beautiful but I don't see the need for naked women :-)

  • I am part and parcel of everything that has ever existed and everything that ever will exist. To experience life, even for a fleeting moment, is to know the truth of existence.

  • You are nature. You are you're thoughts (every..single...one)

    And you are the actions you perform and witness.

    In a nutshell. :)

  • who am i .. a horny bastard did you see the tities .. on tube naked women alert !!!

  • testing 123 testicles 321 ...

  • who am i?...whats my name...oh yeah say my name "John Jacob Jingle Heimer Schmidt,

    Thats my name too"

  • Okay I'm buggin out lol Did I take something?

  • If you don't understand yourself how can you understand everyone else? Your 3rd eye can look inside you without a mirror. haha the naked chick was shocking...jk

  • Great video footage ! thanks... check out the krishnamurti video, who am I ?

  • If you are they then why do you insult yourself?

  • Who am I? This question was answered over 40 years ago. "I am he As you are he As you are me And we are all together Coo-coo-ca-ju" As Scootman leers at the belly dancer, he wonders,"Am I bored or enraptured?" ZB is still searching for an answer, but he won't be content until someone ELSE tells him he has it. Okay. I'll play along. "You got it right, ZB." kosai19's eyes are deafening. STFU, will ya? phil's sis=NO-it-all Baba stirs the pot and licks his lips like Pavlov's dog. Arf! Arf!
  • Who is asking the question?Why all these stupid games,are we soooo bored ? Just love those belly dancers !

  • Beautiful collage. Thanks!

  • Holy books, diet books, self help books, guidance councillors, religious leaders, politicians and mystics exist so that people can avoid to confront the very things in life they say that they want.

  • I am that I am....

    I am the silent observer that watches.

  • alan watts + baraka = !!!

  • Alan Watts 1915-1973 He sure made a diference to my life.

  • @Bobcat952 mine to maybe this can help with my book i'm writing.

  • @Bobcat952 The best teachers in one's life, always do.

  • nice music. anyone know what it is?

  • R.I.P. Alan Watts

  • If I ask myself "Who am i?" i only need to understand that this question is irelevant for me as long as i realize that "I am, I exist" and nothing more. If i realy understand that there is no need to understand anything else ever.

  • very simple isnt it . the hard part is getting i to believe that or i should say to know that . nice comment .

  • Sure sure, but who is it that is realizing "I am, I exist"?

    It's kinda like the movie The Matrix. How to explain to someone in the matrix that the you you think you are, isn't. It's a computer construct. Similar idea.

  • I am my own creation, parly shaped by my history and my environment.  It's not so very mystical and mysterious.

  • it may be mystical and mysterious but it actually its much more basic and therefore closer to the real truth of it all

  • You are most certainly not your own creation, and had nothing to do with your being. No more than a tree is responsible for its being, or a cloud, etc. Even science has finally admitted the existence of a life energy that is beyond the collection of cells that appear to form your solid body, which is not solid. The belief in self creation is an attempt by the ego to define something it has no clue about...

  • xfd

    I control me. I create my destiny. No other can tell me otherwise.

  • I totally agree with you - We each control every thought and action in our seeming physical existence, but that has NOTHING to do with how we came to be...you had nothing to do with your creation, and if you don't believe that, that's fine - truth will make itself known and cannot be altered by our beliefs to the contrary.

  • I'm talking about the creation and cultivation of inner self, FYI, not physical things.

  • my little sister could have told me that!

  • I am interested in what you are saying....It seems that almost everyone says that you are your own creation. All new movies and books... can you tell me anything more or anyone to read to learn more?

  • Among other books, you might look at:

    The Four Agreements - Don Miguel Ruiz

    Autobiography of a Yogi - Paramahansa Yogananda

    A Course In Miracles - JC

    Thought: You did NOT create yourself, though you create with every thought...as you were created in the thought of another. Be responsible in your thoughts...

  • Agree!! A C I M !!

  • I would have enjoyed this but bono was in it - that was wack. bono is toolbox

  • sell out corporate bitch sob bono? then im outta here...

  • Lol, great comment, I felt the same way.

  • Most people listen to a voice and before it end they are already ready for commenting.

    listen without judging, do not say I agree or disagree just listen.

    allow it to sink in, let your heart decide.

    stop the rattling in your mind for just a second and see.

  • Sorry, but I fail to find any profundity in these words and I see fail to see how  the fact that I "can't touch the tip of this finger with the tip of this finger" bears any relevance on the philosophical search for self. I searched here for answers to very deep questions but found so much fake philosophy.

  • dont down on alan

  • *you* are fake.

  • "I can't touch the tip of this finger with the tip of this finger." He's just reiterating how intangible we are to ourselves, therefor explaining why we often ask "Who am I?"

  • Accidentally hit "Post Comment" before I was ready, but I also wanted to add that it seems like Pinman made this video to be all 'new age-y' and motivational. Seems like something someone would make/watch while stoned and being all... Hippy-ish. >_>

    Alan Watts' other stuff that I've looked at throughout the night is pretty good, but as far as 'searching for answers to deep questions,' you'd probably have better luck 'googling' than YouTube. Good luck finding your answers, either way.

  • maybe he just likes alan watts and wants to share... either presumption of ours is a reflection on ourselves. he who sees the beauty in others sees the beauty in himself. he who sees dark is dark. but we all have shadows. im seeing my own as i bother to post this.

  • If you're looking for answers to questions about yourself you're sure to be disappointed.

  • Please explain your response in your best Zen fashion.

  • If you're looking for answers to questions about yourself (that is to say your past), all you will ever find is more questions. You'll never get to the root. Not ever.

  • would you ever really want to? if or when you do you would stop and to stop is to die. i guess we'll all get to taste that too, eventually.  maybe death is a kind of root. perhaps there is a kind of ecstasy in death in the stillness and knowing within it. and then you maybe at that point say, lets do it again! i want another go! haha :)

  • I think you could be right, queglay. At the end, at last, there will be a 'stillness' and a 'knowing.' In my heart, that feels like the truth.

  • Oh, man this is the most perfect follow up to the last video I just watched, like instant karma = D

  • yes

  • Beautiful..

  • bodley joys are short lived, food, sex, security....

    Find the one that enjoyes this things and focus on it.

    I is universe, all in one, I am LOVE

  • I is the one doing the enjoying

  • I am You

  • I just am.

  • amazing isnt it

  • Who am I .... I am life in decision with

    0ne who moves from one form to another Its who we are not ...............

  • Comment removed

  • Stop searching.

  • You will never escape the feeling of who you are when you were a child. Remember what it is you loved to do most when you were a child, and do it.

  • and if all else fails... try psychedelics

  • all those parts of our identity, "the goth" "the smart one" they're just the images and things we've seen and like and try to hold on to, by then they're just dreams that we try to wear like a suit of clothes. it's sometimes hard to let go of some of them, but being is possible when we stop trying to be something, and whenever we are being, well... :)

  • Thou art so close to the eyelids that thou art closer to the eyelids than the eyelids themselves, and therefore you are more mysterious than the eyelids... to an extent... o Self.

  • We search and we seek and all the while we miss the point. --ZB

    Well, who am I to disagree with your observation; BUT, the point is-- does anyone know that model's phone number? (.55-1.10)

  • I slept with the most beautiful girl I ever saw in my life. Wasn't anything great about it. Seeing her for the first time was better. Seeing her for the first time was everything.

  • We are not a problem, therefore "the problem of who we are..." should not apply. We are the answer and solution to our life, who we are.

  • life is a mystery

  • and thus should it be

  • let it fall over u half wits.

  • i am who i am. i can be nothing, i can be everything. i am the 'filter' of what is manifestating as me, my thoughts, my feelings, my whole reality.

  • Who am I? well... I Am.

  • yes

  • I am WHO is, not what I imagine myself to be.

  • I am WHO is, not what I imagine myself to be

    Yo soy QUIEN soy, no lo que imagino que soy.

  • We ask such questions because we can know stuff to be true. Otherwise we wouldn't ask the question. We are creatures who are reasonable. But if all we are is a species carried by survival then we cannot know anything to be true. Survival is not the same as truth...only useful. SO we have to assume that there is a part of us that was not created by nature that helps us to grasp that which is true. Therefore there is an ultimate Reason at the center of our lives and the universe.

  • I challenge you to discover it.

  • already have :-)

  • we are but a mist in a brief second of time

  • yay Baraka!

  • Happiness is the most important "thing" in mankind.

    blow bubbles,

    listen to music,

    call people,

    laugh,

    forget the bad in the world,

    think positive,

    smile.

  • Are you sure about that?

    You dont know how it feels to live,

    till you know how it feels to die :/

    but i do think that us, humans, are very strange, because we force out imagination to new levels, and we rise in technology, and knowledge.. Its like stairs, but where is the top of the stairs? does it end? some day were going to fall off the top of the stairs.

  • Our ability to use language effectively is a function of consciousness and mind together. Consciousness is viewing or reading the mind, and the mind is thinking or speaking the words.

  • Our sentences are egoic expressions of naming-states. Ifeel-hungry means: I am (the state of) feeling-hungry. The name feeling-hungry is the stimulus, expressed as the moment in simple terms. The name is now. A moment, expressed due to an observer and intelligence, is my present state of being; therefore it is me that is expressed. Language hence, is a mechanism of the mind, not consciousness; one can experience events without language to describe them.

  • ... if there were a "one" to experience something ;)

    Actually "one" cannot experience anything since it depends on the "anything" to exist. It's the dependent origination thing.

    Not realizing this, we keep on believing Münchhausen and his story about pulling oneself up by your bootstraps.

  • Your message is unclear. I am therefore I think, this means that we are here, reality exists, the only detirmine left to be understood is WHAT. What are the principle characteristics and essences of reality. Space and Time. Time is both matter and energy, or the motion of that matter. But since physics has shown that matter is energy condensed, then everything is energy. Therefore time is only energy. So reality is composed of Time and space. And space is Nothingness, endless. They contrast.

  • space isn't nothingness, because you cant have nothing without something, the universe must have both to exist

  • Thank you for proving my point. Space is nothingness as matter (atoms) is somethingness; the two are contrasting in nature and help to measure eachothers distinct infinit potential. The depth of their relationship is great, as selfsimilar patterns exist to show us the way to understanding. Eg. The consciousness vs the brain and intelligence (which is dependantly determaned by physical means). This is poetically divine, and evokative of the notion of god, which to me is simply Reality Divine.

  • I is not important when death comes. I, ego, is not important in death, but I is very important in life. Life is the time of the physical, in the existence of existence. After life, I will not exist in its divisive form. I will be They.

    I is experience. Experience is gods reflection; we are the mirrors to reality—whatever is inside of us is important, if only to existence: for there to be an ear for the falling tree in the forest to be heard and appreciated.

  • im clearly no my naval : )

  • me myself and a higher self???

    our inner buddha,or christ , that nondual and very aware part. Yet, we are rushed off to school and head-ucated and become sometimes so left brained and overly mental ,lacking the full spectrum .... yet we reflect where we are historically , at the cusp of pisces and Aquarian ages... soon enough enlightment will be common as man evolves. the AQ age will be liberating.... as we become one with the whole, sorta bee hive mind set ,all-one .

  • Listen carefully. Underneath is a subliminal message being played.

  • We are what we want to be.

    Change the world!!!

    Take Your Soul back!!!!

  • I -my self - searched a song called "who am I" and found this. And now I find my self listening to this every night, it s so illusive...PAX

  • for real nobody knows what we are, who we are we search as long as we are here but no answer

  • We search and we seek and all the while we miss the point.

  • Everpresent beyond timespace and not timespace already.

  • We are made in his own image Lord Jesus Christ lives in all of us!!!!!

    Seek thee first thy kingdom of God.

    Ask and ye shall recieve.

  • We are the universe`s eyes and ears and brain trying to figure itself out.But even the universe can`t bite its own teeth.

  • i love this video. i watch it everyday. it makes me relax and think. i am who i am.

  • bono ruined this whole damn video!!!!!

  • The mind and the universe create each other through the union, or yoke.

    Without both, both cease

    Who am i is not as important as who are we or we are one

    who are you?

  • I'm an organism functioning with--and depending on--the whole environment. I am what I am. I just am.

  • I am (a wiggle) of the Universe. So because a wiggle CANT exist alone. We can say; I am (implicitly) the all Universe. and I am (explicitly) myself, a mind and a body in a bag of skin. Both are true. Timeless Wisdom of the great philosophers & mystics. Be well to all human brothers & sisters. Alan Watts was and still is an awesome philosopher. Thanks for sharing
  • simply change 'who am I' to a statement rather than see it as a QUESTion and then you will understand the meaning entirely. for you see the concept of 'I' is merely an extension of all WHO cometh before me, myself and I. so it is WHO of all people that makes me for who I am. I'm still not through yet, I didn't say that I meant to invert the question. rather it is the collective 'who' that I am a part of, and not apart from. JUH GIT IT??? THANKUHVURMUCH

  • I am who.

  • wonderful vid, thanks for sharing

  • Very well done, pinman.

    P.S.: If you want World PEACE, then please Read and Recommend "THE ART OF PEACE" by Morihei Ueshiba, (founder of Aikido - the martial art of love), to Everyone you Know and Love. Thank You. (So Be It.)

  • I love that it ends with an iguana. I love lizards. Cool video.

  • Beautiful. Amazing use of Stock/Archival footage. Love especially the timelapse of the tree growing. And in the end where the clown wipes of his make up and you cut to the little native girl staring in the same way. There's a connection. Quit your job, or school, or zen training. Make more videos. Please share more. Only through creativity will we be able to end corruption. Only through sharing our insights will we be able to ungrasp from our desires. Youtube was made for moments like this!

  • what song is playing in the background?

  • I am

  • Hilarious!

  • There is a wonderful seminar i went to,, where you just sit around and answer this question, Who Am I, with another person. It was the most powerful thing. the seminars are called "enlightenment intensive" google it if you want to go further.

  • Thats Incredible.

  • i am a pervert cuz i just paused at the naked ladieee :D

  • lol did you see that awesome boobie lol

  • What movie does that nude woman come from? Most of those clips are from "Baraka" by Ron Fricki

  • "i think, therefore i am"

  • I have thoughts, so I must exist. Or am I thought itself? Do thoughts just happen of themselves, and naturally come to the conclusion that there must be a core, an "I" that creates them. Can thought not accept itself as a lone entity that exists of itself, independent of physicality? Thought definitely exists. Thought is not sure if "I" exist. Or, thinking is not sure if "I" exist. But thought most definitely is sure that thought exists.

  • I Am that I Am. I Am that I BECOME.

  • I am

    thats all

  • You are what ? you say i am but what is that I am you say thats all but who put that thinking in your head who ?

  • well you are catching on eh?

    and who is that who is catching on?

    27 more years of this where do you think this would take you?..Hot balls of iron caught i the throat..You may never get rid of them hehe

  • Any reason why the video lenght is exactly 3.33? :D

  • yes you know why

    read job 3:33

    remember I am That

    If and when you see 333 just remember that :-)

  • sorry its actually Job

    33:3 My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.
