Alan Watts - The Real You
“A philosophically oriented remix of the late Eastern Philosopher Alan Watts’ 1971 special “A Conversation With Myself” combined with visuals from the great art film “Baraka”.”
“We confuse ourselves as living organisms which are one with this whole universe
With something we call our personality
And what is our personality?”

Alan Watts on Conforming to Society
“Why do we feel like we don’t fit in? Is it a bad thing? Why do we have a harder time the less we conform? Alan Watts talks about societies insecurities.
He says they want us to “play the game”. We have to strive for status otherwise we aren’t playing by the rules. But what are the rules? What is the game?
Alan Watts talks 40 years ago here like it was yesterday.
Listen how he explains how we are all believed to be equally inferior and how dangerous it is to society.
A free society should embrace those of us who strive to see things simpler and less manipulated”

If we send people out into space, our astronauts, we have the whole scientific faculty of the country behind them.
Likewise, if we are going to send people into inner space, instead of something that is being done in a paranoid, guilty atmosphere, it should be something in which we openly cooperate, with the feeling that we’re holding your hand, we’re with you all the way..
Allan Watts
We’re with you all the way.
