From 2:40 to 5:00 on this post - fantastic; would be nice for all in the Western world to be reminded of this.

It's simple, true and it can set you free.

As humans we will come back to our habitual thoughts but even the knowledge of what Alan says here is nice to have in the recesses.

Sometimes it feels easy to be in touch with the present moment, for days even, and it's when the grabbing and forcing are vacant.

Alas it slips away.....but it comes back again.

I find myself listening to the second half of this repeatidly, as if to try and get te point, even though he says theirs no need to get the point. Such a paradoxical world...

Interesting video!

This is an invitation to anyone or everyone see an artist theory on the physics of light and time!

This theory is based on two postulates

1. Is that the quantum wave particle function Ψ represents the forward passage of time ∆E ∆t ≥ h/2π itself

2. Is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the w- function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event that we can interact with turning the possible into the actual!

I like to listen to Alan Watts so much. Great teacher. Great lecture.

But I will never understand why you guys add music to it.

It is so distracting and makes it hard to concentrate on the words.

Why do you spoil what is so good?

@jameshanley40 thats funny, but i think this dude has a good point, sharp not dull. And i agree with his views, because i can relate to them. As with all study, i suggest repetition, it is after at the heart of learning. And good things get better the better you are.

@runforbodyandsoul

I've only a little idea of some of what Alan Watts is talking about, and i've no idea what you're talking about.
