Me too. But I don't like Alan Watts videos with added reverb and unnecessary music in the background. I get that it's supposed to emphasize what he's saying--this particular composition conveys a deep level of movingly tragic existential despair--but that doesn't mean I want it mixed in with my Zen.

It does help the seriousness of my bleak situation as a mortal being sink in, but it's still quite distracting and without adequately matching his attitude.

Wow! I've never seen this one before! At least, I don't think it's ever been posted in this forum. Okay, so it's just a four minute segment of the original speech, but that's more than made up for with the added sensational music to impact the message. Holy shit - where did you find this, zuperxtreme? Great work.

Never post in this forum again, you fucking faggot.
