[@Edessa_G]

If only Alan Watts were alive today. Even though his words are timeless, I’d love to see what he thought of todays world ❤️ Namaste 🙏

[@tmalonso]

I imagine he would say “it takes all sorts to make a world, and what a world it is”…before smiling knowingly and chuckling ;)

[@Edessa_G]

@@tmalonso you’re not wrong 🙂

[@lyonsheartmusic]

From his books, he already knew what the world would be like. However if people LISTEN, and put words into ACTION, than these issues would be no longer. He wouldn't be surprised at our current situation.

[@danielemignano5]

That's a great question but yes I do believe if you listen and listen until the point that it becomes that you don't even know you are you can then understand that he's saying what he talks about is relevant for the infinity of Infinity in time ❤

[@CryptoiNNERG]

But YOU ARE ALIVE TODAY, learn to love to hear what YOU have to say of todays world. YOUR opinion and view is what truly matters to you. Don’t let another man’s outlook become yours, form your own opinion within yourself. We are all one consciousness

[@felixmoyoedonmi]

The meaning of existence flows effortlessly out of the mouth of Alan Watts. It's such a blessing listening to him.

[@mateerdei3218]

There was no effortlessness to be heard. He was troubled by himself as every other human being

[@felixmoyoedonmi]

@Máté Erdei I wouldn't know his troubles, and quite frankly, I wouldn't care. I have the all-consuming need to know mine. Each individual must carry his/her own cross. Jesus carried his own, Buddha carried his own, I am carrying my own, and I suggest you carry yours.

[@mateerdei3218]

@@felixmoyoedonmi nice of u to suggest 😻

[@pauladavis1220]

Beautiful summation of knowing who we are: Spirit, Soul, and Body. HalleluYah!!! 😇🕊🕊

[@gagandeepsingh2518]

You should not listen to him being a Christian. He is Satanic

[@JamieMckaye]

The mention of Freud and Haeckel was amazing.

[@mauriciososaherrera4660]

This is deep... So Hard to keep track to his concept of self.. And yet I feel so much identified.

[@debbiesingh7880]

I would just be pure again body and soul, if I meet that creator. That's good enough that's will be a blessing:

[@samtaj2810]

"Hey god, this is your idea of fun?! You idiot. "

[@stevenaxtell7643]

Continously explained

[@pattern18]

"Hey there, trape-tastic viewers! So, here I am, diving into the deep philosophical pool of Alan Watts' wisdom. It's like trying to balance on a tightrope while juggling existential questions. Just remember, if you fall off the trapeze of enlightenment, just laugh it off and embrace the cosmic circus of life. Let's keep soaring together, folks!"

[@Champingcom]

Thanks

[@Pebbzor]

I wonder what the spirit of Alan Watts is up to these days.

[@adbrooks95]

I wish I could've met him

[@hoonhwang4778]

The closing chapter of his life(if it matters at all) still puzzles me.

[@christophergrigat1156]

Sehr gut 👍

[@stacywarren4739]

why does there have to be so much pain

[@JohnDoe-ew1dc]

Without pain we would not know comfort.

[@andreasfehlau4965]

I have been traveling quite a lot lately and I can say that "I" is repeating itself everywhere. For instance, if I had a time machine and I could go back 4000 years and pinch a baby and let it grow up in this time, it wouldn't be different than anyone else. In other words, our technology, coupled with knowledge, is our tool, mentally as well as physically. Unfortunately, we all obsessively cling to the past, even though the future is Hier. So help the future to thrive or keep your mouth shut.

[@MrZart]

None, not even one of these "this will give you goosebumps" KZbin videos has ever given me goosebumps! I yearn for the day when I happen upon a genuine "this gave me goosebumps" video. Do the 'content creators' not realise that their false promise of a goosebumps experience is just cheapening their channel and putting off new watchers, subscribers and seekers of that elusive bump from the goose? ☺️

How are you doing God?

[@josefkosmalski373]

Amen to that

[@Marci92xyz]

I'm good and you, I?

[@EvergrowingYT]

This speech is the answer to people asking flat earthers the question "but why would they tell us this (ball earth) story? Why would they lie to us?"

[@gt-c-]

[@heather1985october]

The question I would ask God is: "Who made you?"

[@timenobodygets1153]

Is there perfect society?

[@chrisjarmain]

A perfect society is up for debate or is just an opinion. Let me put it this way. Flowers are beautiful. Even I agree with this. Therefore, lilacs must be beautiful. Which is then an opinion. It's seemingly straightforward, but it is, in a way, a contradiction. A perfect society is just an opinion, therefore. I'm not saying I'm right here. But it just opens the possibilities.

[@00ruva00]

If alan saw the state of our world today he would be like oh yup i called it

[@120dbdavid]

Does Gravity push or pull?

[@DJBou0407]

My question would be simply "WHY?"

[@chrisjarmain]

Why. He answers this with how people listen to music or dance. When you listen to music are you listening to it to get to a particular destination. If music was, then the best composers would be the ones who got to the end the fastest. Or when you dance, are you dancing to end at a particular place on the dance floor. With both music and dance, the point to both is just to listen to the music or dance just to dance. Why life. Well, to be alive is simply just to be alive. The same as these two analogies. ☮️

[@heather1985october]

My answer would be "Why Not?"

[@jodystephenson6306]

Holy shit! I though I was the one to coin doctors and dentists just are body mechamics...LOL

[@charlesmark231]

i don't think I'd have any question to ask

[@mcds54]

what happens after death.... if anything?

[@Aceofspades737]

Why am I here? Was the first question I thought of.

[@behelith]

Simple: "How did I do and what is my next job?"

[@DartsGondel]

The simple problem with this is that "God" does not have to answer. It just says that you have 30 Minutes to ask "him" a question.

[@charlesfountain3946]

Well bless my soul (what ever people think that is) this man speaking has unequivocally put the lid on the jar or the cork back in the bottle as they say when nothing else makes sense... He would have had some interesting discussions with Solomon no doubt when he (Solomon) started putting his thoughts on paper (as if that were even possible) : it would be clear somebody here has left out the major part of the solution of the equation... I'm here, somebody put me here and somebody can take me out of here... What a radical concept to have to grapple with every time you put your feet on the floor each morning the Sun comes up (from where ever it has been resting out of sight)...

[@Abdominal65]

People need to understand allegory. God is real, Mr. Watts is wrong about God. What he's perceiving is correct, but it doesn't eliminate the possibility of God. He's recognizing Gods hand, is all.

[@IanBroadmorePsychic]

The question would be why ?

[@heather1985october]

The answer would be "Why Not?"

[@zatgerrard6853]

Ok

[@akaitv6606]

Why was the universe constructed , that is the question I would ask .

[@paradigmshift9]

So that it makes sense of it all through you. We are gods senses , perhaps throughout all the universe there are different life forms evolving and expanding faster than the speed of light so we haven’t seen it yet because it hasn’t arrived. Just here to upload and download information

[@asyourattorneyiadvise9063]

Simple. My question would be "why do you hate us?"

[@chrisjarmain]

How would you know love without pain. Or better understood. See both love and pain as two ends of the same pole. If all you had was love... how would you know it was love. Thought-provoking and possibly wrong. But an open debate.

[@chloebob4943]

DO YOU WNNA KNOW WHAT GOD IS? GOD IS THE INSPIRATION FOR YOU TO TRY A NEW THING

If the answer is 42, then what is the “ultimate question” God? & it better not be what is 6 x 7.

[@markpaddy3280]

Well,the answer, my child is ...what is 42x1. You are welcome,now give me 42 hail Marie's for being petulant.

[@Vince_Paul]

How can you ask a question to something that has never existed? An no proof to they existence? Alan Watts speaks a lot of sense, but he should of known better to ask a question about asking god, knowing himself that it never existed in the first place. Alan Watts was a very clever man, wonder what he would feel about todays world and the way people now act.

[@WhatDoesEvilMean]

It’s a ridiculous and idiotic position to say that most people don’t believe in God.😂😂😂😂

[@bukvalnocvik]

But I would ask "Who/what is your God?"

[@PureGames...]

I would have no questions at all....because all my questions have answers that nobody else other than me knows...

ATTENTION!!! i am here to proclaim that Jesus Christ is the only true savior for the world. Jesus loves you and He died on the cross for your sins, three days later, He arose from death. Jesus is alive and He has defeated death. REPENT and put your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will be saved from the fires of Hell. ROMANS 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.

[@nathanboyer80]

i would ask God how He dies. if He is all knowing all powerful, certainly that must include death. Dear God, how is that you die?

He didn't die, human says that.
