Have you taken the Wattspill yet?

I've already read through Guenon and moved onto almost exclusively reading primary texts/sources, but I consider Watts to be based and a good entry point into eastern thought, I just recommended him to my roommate yesterday after he read an eckhart tolle book and said he really liked it, I told him Watts is a step up from Tolle.

The wattspill is best in audio form

Correct. The books are also good, though.

I never would have guessed, albeit I haven't read any Watts. Do you have a recommended narrator?

Watts has a lot of interviews. I think that's what they mean

you can find a lot of his lectures on youtube. his voice is calming

Ah, thanks. If there's an audio analogue to "The Wisdom of Insecurity" please tell me.

*interview/lecture analogue

Alan Watts is a nigggggggggggerrrr

His voice is disgusting

Only a boomer could say something so stupid.
Watts is esoteric boomerism, who grew up in a time of plenty, winter is coming.
Everyone desires security, to not to is to be a dirty bum starving on the street, and no not diogious style, he was a citizen, but crackhead style.

See how meaningless his statement is yet?

It's obviously trivial you idiot, the point is that there's something you should understand more easily when you reframe it in this way

Based received pronunciation

He is a guru, says a bunch of shit that sounds useful but really isnt

>See how meaningless his statement is yet?
i think you accidentally just made it more meaningful, user

Yes, I too have cured my fear of death with alcoholism.

You gotta be like 15, holy shit.

Kek. You know him well.

Bang your head against the wall kid, Watts is a dead end, and I am 38

imagine being 38 and still that stupid

If I'm still here at 38 then somebody please fucking kill me

fucking based.

YES I TOOK IT
NOW IM RICH AND DELUSIONAL

shit taste

>thinking that wisdom and intellect is supposed to make you look like a perfect man

>hey no one is perfect
sure but it's not hard to be somewhat decent, instead of a raging degenerate, specially when you're peddling eastern wisdom to dumb hippies

Most guys who are as big brained as Watts are usually a mess in real life. Sometimes the Eastern philsophy is so well understood by them because they know how animalistic humans can be.

to me it seems they use eastern philosophy to cope with the guilt and detach from the consequences of their bad decisions
it's a great tool for psychopaths if you think about it

true but I wouldn't be so cynical about it. zen gave him a mirror to see his shittiness. you can tell he admired it though which meant he must been getting had some genuinely benefit from it.

Based broken English ESL woke enough to shine light through a warped lens. I particularly like:
>diogious

>He is a guru
He was an entertainer.
