More quotes by Alan Watts
Real religion is the transformation of anxiety into laughter.
Alan Watts
The sound of the rain needs no translation.
Alan Watts
How did you know you're alive, unless you'd once been dead?
Alan Watts
Waking up to who you are requires letting go of who you imagine yourself to be
Alan Watts
Time is a social institution and not a physical reality. There is no such thing as time in the natural world - the world of stars and waters, clouds, mountains and living organisms. There is such a thing as rhythm - rhythm of tides, rhythm of biological processes... There is rhythm and there is motion. Time is a way of measuring motion.
Alan Watts
Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
Alan Watts
We know that from time to time there arise among human beings people who seem to exude love as naturally as the sun gives out heat.
Alan Watts
Parts exist only for purposes of figuring and describing, and as we figure the world out we become confused if we do not remember this all the time.
Alan Watts
A chest of gold coins or a fat wallet of bills is of no use whatsoever to a wrecked sailor alone on a raft.
Alan Watts
The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
Alan Watts
Like too much alcohol,self-consciousness makes us see ourselves double, and we make the double image for two selves - mental and material, controlling and controlled, reflective and spontaneous. Thus instead of suffering we suffer about suffering, and suffer about suffering about suffering.
Alan Watts
I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.
Alan Watts
And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on.
Alan Watts
But when no risk is taken there is no freedom. It is thus that, in an industrial society, the plethora of laws made for our personal safety convert the land into a nursery, and policemen hired to protect us become selfserving busybodies.
Alan Watts
Your soul isn't in your body your body is in your soul!
Alan Watts
What the devil is the point of surviving, going on living, when it's a drag? But you see, that's what people do.
Alan Watts
If we are not totally blind, what we are seeking is already here. This is it.
Alan Watts
Self-knowledge leads to wonder, and wonder to curiosity and investigation, so that nothing interests people more than people, even if only one's own person.
Alan Watts
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
Everybody is fundamentally the ultimate reality.
Alan Watts
