Which of his works is the best to stick by for Zen Buddhist mantra? Also, discuss
>>25322049Become what you are
>>25323779wonderful thank you
>>25322049Everything about this man and his philosophy sickens me to my core.
>>25323830in what wayyou can literally just calm your thoughts bro you are in control
>>25323830I have to agreelike with depak chopra. i could just smell something off. no hate, my favorite buddhist character happens to be angulimala who killed a bunch of people before becoming good, i just happen to receive strange energies too
>>25324030Definitely drug and sex euphemism (not very hard to decode either). Enough to put a writer on notice but what are you thinking?
>>25324053I have very few thoughts on the matter but my intuition always told me chopra was stinky and the fact these feelings were vindicated at least to the degree possible that can be inferred by these communications 8 years after convicted child sexual abuser jeffery epstein was charged in florida court for trafficking children with the topic of young girls and sex makes me think that the alarms that go off in my head regarding alan watts, which i have to say are less loud than they are/were for deepak, are not unfounded. nigga

>>25324080Watts was a major alcoholic but other than that he seemed alright to me.
>>25325478>>25325479Never change, retard. It brings me many lols to see anons accuse others of the most random biases. what could possibly make you think I'm catholic?! kek>>25325487Thanks for sharing. Yeah that's probably what I was picking up on, because the energy i get from watts is never malignant like chopra but negative in a way that can be explained by alcohol addiction which is one of the worst addictions
>Le you cannot liek him because... HE DIED OF ALCOHOLISMS!!! YIKES!!!Glad to see it's the exact same retard in every single thread.
>>25322049I get major 70s cult leader vibes from him so i get the repulsion of some anons. Dont know a lot about his actual thought though. Is there anything philosophically noteworthy or is he mainly just a self-help popularizer of pre-existing ideas?
He is simply putting to words the natural thoughts you can feel and explore yourself by either doing meditation or psychedelic drugs. Nohing more nothing less.
>>25326941Watts is the last thing from self help guruship>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>We seldom realize, for example that our most private thoughts and emotions are not actually our own. For we think in terms of languages and images which we did not invent, but which were given to us by our society.>Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
>>2532700>simply putting99% of normies are not as eloquent
>>25325525He also had a sex commune where seraphim rose became gay
>>25323933In the way that pretty much every text from the 20th century is bad. Everything was new, no one really had a good grasp of anything they spoke about. Everyone's a crypto Sufi thinking Islam is some secretly wise culture when most Muslims are as dmiwitted as protestants. Or they became buddhists for same reasons. Orientalism hallucinations of enlightened savage.Now we know how those great writers were the exceptions in seas of filth.
>>25328707Where the fuck do you people come up with this shit?
