So much of religion and other groups of spiritual practice becomes a "mine is better" or "I'm closer to the truth" game. I played that game for years as a Catholic doing apologetics which is exactly that. It's all a kind of theater that I eventually got tired of. So many people are concerned about image and being right about everything.

All that matters is what you believe, you cant change anyone but you namaste

I revere Mr Watts AND Krishnamurti, but when I watch K’s lectures on KZbin, he doesn’t seem to go on much with questions about “Why “ do you ask, etc. But he does reject methods as a way to Enlightenment, etc. Both men are such beautiful gifts to people like me. Stay tuned America! ..LOL!!>>!

We must not think we know better because we listen to Alan Watts. He's great at delivering concepts, but if we subscribe to concepts we're trapping ourselves like everyone else. Noone will ever have the answer for us, no striving will ever get us anywhere but where we are now. In a state of desire to be something else than what we are currently. Even me saying this is me thinking I'm more right than those that follow his advice. And yet I also follow his advice and feel as though it's opening my eyes. Seems like the mind is just one giant cycle. How can mind debunk mind? If not by questioning oneself. Getting rid of concepts rather than applying concepts we view as being more right. But getting rid of concepts is also a concept. And no concept is better or worse than another. Isn't it all funny 😄

I think this is the deeper truth, which is difficult for the self to grasp. You cannot get rid of the self for two reasons: 1) the self isn't really there in the first place and 2) you cannot use the self, a collection of thoughts and concepts, to get rid of itself. The deeper truth, as I understand is, is just to recognize that the self isn't there... but you can't DO anything to recognize that. There is no technique because every technique and method is still based on the self. Thats why recognition is the key, to just watch it and find its absence.
