The Lie We Live - Alan Watts On The Acceptance Of Death

A clarifying and powerful lecture from Alan Watts on life. Original audio sourced from: Alan Watts, Inevitable Ecstasy “When you die, you're not going to have to put up with everlasting non-existence, because that's not an experience. A lot of people are afraid that when they die, they're going to be locked up in a dark room forever, - Try and imagine what it would be like to go to sleep and never wake up. And if you think long enough about that...it will pose the next question. What was it like to wake up after never having gone to sleep? That was when you were born...you see...you...you can't have an experience of nothing so after you're dead the only thing that can happen is the same experience or the same sort of experience as when you were born.”Alan Watts (1915 - 1973)Speaker: Alan Watts (1915 - 1973)Follow the Alan Watts Organization:Speech courtesy of alanwatts.orgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/alanwattsorg/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlanWattsAuthor/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AlanWattsOrgSpeech licensed from https://mindsetdrm.com▶Subscribe for New Motivational Videos : https://bit.ly/thyoutubesubscribe▶SHOP Motivational Canvases and Apparel! - https://bit.ly/motiversityshop▶BECOME A MEMBER of our loyal community-https://bit.ly/thmembers Hosted on Acast.
