Must Watch: Watts And Krishnamurti On War, Fear And Spirituality

You can always count on the late philosopher and Zen Buddhist Alan Watts to turn a very complicated subject into a simple lesson in wisdom. In this beautiful video made by vlogger The World Is Yours, lectures by Alan Watts and the amazing Jiddu Krishnamurti are set to powerful images to give a hopeful and empowering message to humanity.

With clips from movies The Thin Red Line, Baraka and the Tree of Life, plus wise words from Muhammed Ali and haunting music from Terrence Blanchard’s 25th hour, this touching video is worth contemplating. We may find ourselves teetering on the brink of another world war, but there’s still time to change, say Watts and Krishnamurti. Humanity must understand the collective psyche: we need to see our tribalist, fear-based reactions for what they truly are…and evolve.
