NO! not Alan Watt its Alan Watts! Since a lot of people have been talking about Alan Watt I thought I should mention the other guy Alan Watts.
Very good video on Meditation, I thought it would go nicely in the matrix section since meditation plays a big part in cancelling all thoughts and the whole thinking process. ENJOY! :)

'like loading the Universe into a gun and firing it into your brain'. - Alan Watts decribes DMT :p

"When you've got the message, hang up the phone." - Alan Watts on drug use.

"Meditation has no purpose, no objective," he says, "but to be entirely in the here and now - All memories and expectations exist now and now only, because now is what there is and all there is."

This experiential video captures Watts at his best when he extols laughter as the best form of meditation and, laughing heartily, urges his audience to participate.

You guys should go and find the art of masturbation. The pair of you could have a mass debate over it.
Whats the good guy to a fraud? you know the opposite. There are so many of these things its hard to keep up at times. "He's a this she's a that" name calling just like in school. You can not use words to get across what someone is and who they are. Your view on reality won't allow it. Your brain will protect you, as it doesn't want to stop taking the drug known as "life" addicted? everyone is!

Alan Watt stole his name with Alan Watts but he dropped the "S"
Misleader? whats it with leaders? they lead you no way, watch the meaning of life. "Come with me, come come come with me"

Having watched the video my self I think it wud be a very useful tool for anyone starting there own meditation practise, but I wud suggest that if you wur serious about a long term practise that you find sum one to teach you in person, that way they can point out things you might not spot on your own. Like pure posture witch can cores physical problems over years of practise.

I practise Soto Zen meditation, and have fond it to be a grate help.

Iv just looked up the definition and think your right, I am pleased im not just going mad.

Phosphene: the sensation of light produced by electrical or mechanical stimulation of the visual pathway of the nervous system.

Could also be tachyons, anamolons or other higher/interdimensional particles of light.
