The black pill is what some anons claim to be negative but it in fact is opposite. Once you hit black pill you understand nothing can be done. Only then will you be able to let go and leave your ego behind

alan watts was an alcoholic he didn't practice what he preached
No one does, faggot nigger.
Would Alan Watts have the following he does if he had male pattern baldness?
The only one who ever did was Jesus Christ.
Good question.
These faggots show up every time Alan Watts is brought up
I am glad he has a following. Only met one person irl. Interesting ideas get followings
What do you think of the idea that we got god wrong and we are god? That idea has always made me think
RAW wrote in one of his books about a game they would play at parties. People would take turns pretending that they were a member of an advanced civilization and other party guests would ask questions of them. Just by envisioning themselves as higher beings they were able to come up with brilliant answers to the questions asked of them. IMO this was because they removed emotional and biased responses from the selection of answers they would think up. Currently people are being taught to make decisions off of emotional reactions and not intellectual thoughts. They call this progressive when it is clearly not progress.
>Currently people are being taught to make decisions off of emotional reactions and not intellectual thoughts.
Imagine thinking you have to teach people to make decisions off of emotional reactions.
Humans are gonna human. Now and forever, which is the point OP is trying to make.
who does ?
hope your family dies in a car accident.
>Memeflag
>Red herring
Yup this checks out. Mystics should be sensualist, you haven't read anything this guy wrote. Alan watts is the Great philosopher of our time
>No one does, faggot nigger.
not everyone is claiming to have the answers to how best to live though are they, he was a hypocrite, and you're a smoll brain
He did, he was a proud alcoholic until the last breath. Finding out that fact was enough to get me off booze 5 years ago, I thought, if 900 IQ Alan Watts can get pwned by booze, so can I.
>who does ?
see if you make specific claims on how to achive happiness, if you gain a following making these claims, if you make money making these claims, then you yourself need to follow your own advice..... and you YOURSELF need to keep one eye open at all times ;)
the blackpill is liberating, it opened my eyes and explained me why i spent all my youth in loneliness and nihilism, the blackpill motivates me to self improve far more than the redpill and the bluepilled fag normies.
I'm afraid you just don't have the brain power to understand his advice user. He never told you to not drink yourself to death in any of his advice.
you are correct
you dont chose the blackpill, the blackpill chooses you
No the black-pill is negative. What you're talking about is the logical step after the black-pill. Black-pilled nibbas just never take it.
If nothing can be done (which we all have no choice but to concede), the negative approach of CHOOSING to let go to achieve any outcome, ego-loss or otherwise, is an illogical contradiction and an impossible goal.
>watch random Alan Watts thing
>first thing he says is I am not telling you how to think.
>trying to name it
You should know better.
illogical is not the same as impossible
A neural network of a monkey brain is not the be all end all.
>Demoralization = spiritual development
Wow so heckin based!! I hate ego!!
This guy dosnt know the first thing about spirituality
OP starts:
>The black pill is what some anons claim to be negative but it in fact is opposite.
You're a retard.
How can there be a step, logical or otherwise, following the apparent realization that there are no steps to take? And where are you getting those logical answers if not from the same repeated nonsense that hasn't been aw to bring about change in anyone or any place.. nothing new for centuries.
The logical structure of our thoughts, based on the world mind, determines all outcomes. Thought = action. The suggestion that a somehow original thought would be revealed by the abandoning of an ego/concept of self entirely derived from thought is the paradox I'm trying to describe.
We are more like robots than monkeys, with no way out.
that's why the Jews killed him fren
Why does this bother you? Go play some vidya before you hurt yourself. The tao te ching is a neat book and its short.
I don't think he ever preach abstinence you silly goose, maybe you should try and understand the opposing view before you actually oppose it
>Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic.
>How can there be a step, logical or otherwise, following the apparent realization that there are no steps to take?
If there are no steps to take then the logical realisation is you take whatever steps you want, if you want to. That's what letting go is.
Remember when Nietzsche said, "this too is arrogance," referring to the perceived victory over ego characteristic of truth seekers in their 30s. You are here.
>someone who smokes can't tell you not to smoke
I see
M8 I'm not bothered but you're the one who used the phrase and you're just being a condescending dickhead. Good luck with that.
