Hooked on Alan Watts

[dalebert]

I've become such a fan of Alan Watts, that I figured he deserves a thread and this section seems the appropriate place for someone with such an outrageously optimistic outlook on life and the nature of our reality. Please post any Alan Watts material you like here. You are not allowed to criticize! JK

Music and Life - Alan Watts

Alan Watts - The Ground of Being

[Ryan McGuire]

The Music and Life video is fantastic. I wrote about this a few years back, and it's inspiring every single time I re-watch it.

Here's a YouTube channel that uploads a lot of Alan Watts material.

He has another channel where he talks about anarchy and stuph. I discovered that one first and it's how I discovered his murdered2death channel.

Alan Watts: Multiple Personality Order

[dalebert]

This isn't Alan Watts (I don't think) but it's Alan Watts-ish. About 7 mins in, he starts talking about free will and it kind of expresses my own frustration with people arguing for or against free will without really even knowing what they mean by it. We spent the last hour of FTL one recent Thursday night trying to nail down my frustrations without much luck. It is, after all, a very cerebral topic.
