A profound speech on the Pursuit of Pleasure by Alan Watts. Original Audio sourced from: “Alan Watts - Extended Seminars - The Self - Pursuit of Pleasure"

“This is the real secret of life -- to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play."
– Alan Watts. (1915 – 1973)

The moral of this is to lighten up and dance. This short time we have on earth isn't worth taking everything so seriously and being rigid about everything. But it's a shame how the world is in a constant state of anxiety. Everyone you come across at work or in the streets is always uptight. But starting with yourself is probably the best place to start. Watching this on break at work. And it inspired me to pay attention to myself more. If I become gloom I'll just laugh it off and let it go. Thank you for this channel.

“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.” ― Alan Watts

Alan Watts said this more than 50 years ago. People are even less playful today. I remember when I was growing up in the 70s and 80s, people were a lot more open than they are today. So, the message of this talk is doubly applicable to modern society.

I was born in 1985, I still sing at work, I love music and try to just be myself all the time. Who cares what others think, life is too short. Enjoy it as much as possible and fuck the material shit.🙏🏻🇬🇧

Alan Watts....who wrote The Way of Zen as a very young man....a leading light....still encouraging us to live with joy, laughter, and dance. The days of sixties hedonism are long gone....and people now yearn for meaning....yet there is meaning in living with light heartedness . Thank you Alan....we all need a reminder now and then!

As with AW, the most inspiring parts of his speeches, only happens and hits home just when you are in the most liberated moments mentally. Which often {for me anyway} has required multiple listens of what this great man is actually saying. PL&H
