OMG... an intersting subject I'm certain of... but I just couldn't make it through more than 5 minutes!! Is that opium he's smoking! His words seem to go 'round & 'round & make time go ever soooo s l o w l y y y y y y.
Jeeeeez... anyone see it & can summarize this dude's point for me? Does he suggest that time is linear & that the present does in fact influence the past? If so, why couldn't he just say that? Instead of making me laugh talking about not needing to respond to hunger or lust... I very much wonder how true this is!! :D When he was talking about the size of the sun being this or that he kinda lost my interest... oops.

Not to worry, he's not for everybody. Try coming back to listen to it at another time. :)
:rolleyes: was talking with Alan Watt yesterday and he mentioned that Alan Watts was a Anglican Priest at the time of his departure ! { and of course he thought Alan was quite a man }
Sooo, if you try to listen and 'focus' for 55mins, you will see that dear Alan must have changed his view on going to 'nothing' by being a Priest of the Playwright Jesus ! { who of course would say, when the f are u guys, producers, directers,writers, cast, etc going to get the wonderfull show correct/right??? }
Ave Maria ! omg ! Infinity
;) :) :o :cool:

Thank you Montag,
for this link.
I really, really loved it!
And (Unicorn) I don't think it is slowly at all.
You can even laugh with him.
