Alan Watts: The Conception of Ourselves as a Skin-Encapsulated Ego

[Mister Obvious]

Well...

You are going to know whatever it's in your co-ordinate point/individual perspective to know...

And you will know absolutely nothing you're not supposed to.

But as far as knowing that we live again (and again, to infinity), it's well known by a whole lot of people, so I would guess it's more like one of those 'common sense' sort of truths.

See that's the thing about truth...

It's like an ever-flowing fountain.

One you're set and passionate about receiving all truth (that is there to be received by all who ever want it, with no limits), it's a snowball effect...

It just keeps coming, it just keeps piling on, it just keeps collecting, and because the force of truth around you just grows bigger and bigger, it starts to get attracted like a magnet and eventually you can't NOT know.

Yeah I feel this too. Even though it to me is kinda weird, like logically when I think about it, it should just go black when I die but, somehow I have this strong deep sense (in my soul I guess you could say...) that death is not the end and that it would be simply stupid to be born, have a soul, then die after some decades, only to never be anything again. There simply is no point to life being that meaningless. There has to be more I feel.

It´s really interesting to think about. Maybe the most interesting thing there is.

[Mister Obvious]

Yeah it completely goes against common sense to think that there's nothing after death.

There is nothing in existence that lasts forever... not even death.

Alan Watts: Why Your Feelings Are Never Wrong

[Mister Obvious]

0:58 so true... that's exactly what we're doing here.

I don't know if I agree with the 'stages' of dreaming and all that kinda stuff, but in general the message is accurate.

8:52 so true... that's what I was talking about the other day:

Thanks for that, I enjoyed it.

[Mister Obvious]

Yeah it was one of his best.

A tad whack how many of the OP videos are missing.

[Mister Obvious]

I don't always get much out of listening to Alan Watts, but when I do, I post it here.

I think a lot of those vids were removed by the people who made them, doesn't look like YouTube's fault.
