"They love Native Americans. It's a thing. And so he said, okay, it's good. It's going to be good for the conference, but as soon as you're done, bring it back. And so I did. I brought it back and they rebuilt it completely and shipped it back to me. But yeah, the field recordings were wonderful. We're now actually embarking into a new phase now. I mean, always the problem with these recorded works is finding things. And indexing and cataloging, it's a very linear situation. And so a few years ago, we used something called voice based, which is a way of being able to search a transcribes things, but then it sort of clunkily took you to where it was in the talk. And now my tech guy drew has found a new one. That's just absolutely phenomenal. He transcribed a 140 hours in two days with this system. He comes back to us 98% correct. You go through it and it shows you where there are problems. It highlights that where it thinks their problem is all AI. And but the beautiful thing is you can now search, it'll go through the entire collection, find incidences and show you the text of where you find your search result. You can click there and you're listening to high quality audio instantly. I mean, this is a huge revolution for the curious minds. I mean, because say you remember something that my father said and he really want to hear it again. You want to hear that original thing in moments. You could be listening to it. So our big push is to do this with my father's talk as a prototype, but if it's well received, then I'd really like to dive into that esslin collection. And work with the Campbell foundation work with other groups that have recordings and start to do this as a humanities project. And we're working with a professor at Stanford who is in literature and she's got some ideas about that and her husband's a software guy kind of pushed us in this direction..

"Well, you already told you one, which was the woman at in Santa Cruz at bridge mountain. But I think maybe one of my favorites was he said, love to go to the slanted institute on the Big Sur coast. That was just a place that appealed to him and actually driving through the first time in the early 50s when he decided that California was his home. He couldn't learn a living in Big Sur, but he wasn't going to ever be too far from Big Sur. So he would take the family down every year, you know, what my mom and kids would all pile into the car got out of Big Sur. And so that was part of my growing up experience, but years later, when I started recording him, he would come to ask that institute at least once or twice a year. And give these weekend seminars. And just wanted particular was one that he did without wall. It was the one where he told that story about what did God do before he created the world. And it was a weekend with how long it was on daoism and I named my podcast after it. You know, it's kind of a play on words. In my own way was his autobiography and the seminar title was being in the way. And so anyway, he was giving this seminar and they and he was demonstrating and I was demonstrating calligraphy. And we all decided to go out to the pool because Al was said it was time to take a break and he was just all this wonderful form of slow motion Tai Chi. And so there we all were out by the pool doing these like really slow things that it was just so great to get out there and do it. And I'm looking across the pool and there's a woman at the other edge of the pool closer now and she takes a step back and just falls into the pool. And comes up just laughing and she was just something about that moment. You know, my dad helped pull her out of the pool. And everybody just came together. And it was just, it was just so funny. You know, it was just a little something that happened, but there was just something about that moment that bonded everybody. And it went on to the seminar was just it was just great. I mean, he talks in that seminar. He said he began with saying every creature in the world, big, small, whatever. I think it's a human. And he explained that to actually mean by human it thinks it's the center. And sort of this great model of the apple tree, but also sort of more pearls in the network of Indra in the great cosmic spider web. And but what I realized is I heard him say this kind of stuff before, but I realized how important Al and the Tai Chi and the woman falling in the pool, how much that actual experience helped everybody to get that we were that connected..

"Father ended up being dean. As Frederick spiegelberg was the founder. And in his role as dean, he would double his teacher and then go into the administrative office trying to make ends meet. He had a great helper. But he quickly learned that they needed to draw more people and they needed to a bigger audience. And so what they did is they opened the doors in the evening and took turns giving lectures. The various professors and invited the public and it was 5 bucks. And it supported the academy and his lectures immediately became very popular and well attended. And I remember when I was little, he was still giving these and I would come over and slide down the banisters out in this big old building. He would be in there talking to all these people. And so a guy that this kind of spread out to the coffeehouses, you get to know some of the beat poets and they would do poetry and they say, Allen, get up and say something. And in that crowd, there was a guy named Henry Jacobs Henry sandy Jacobs, who eventually became my father's archivist and recorder, but eventually became my father in law. They were good friends. They lived across the canyon from them in a homestead valley near mill valley. And but Henry did he was what they call a community programmer at KPFA in Berkeley. And he did a show called the wide weird world of shorty peterston, which was about this jazz musician that he'd made up. And it was really funny. And he all kinds of different episodes. But he encouraged my father to come over and volunteer and give talks. So when I was a little kid, sandy would show up and they would get in his car and head off to Berkeley. And my father would record a talk on Saturday night that would be rebroadcast on Sunday morning. And this started in it started in the year I was born in 1953. And first he did the great books of Asia and then he did a series started in 1956 called way beyond the west that was very popular..

"Get in our bias centric computer screens and mentioning Allen's love for carpentry. It reminds me of what if I read Philip glass's autobiography, it blew my mind that he talked about in the 50s and the 60s, and even into the 70s, he was still in New York, just like living in a little, you know, a little like room that was almost like a warehouse that wasn't finished that didn't even have like a sink or something like that in Manhattan and was doing plumbing and boiling lead to poor toilet seals all day and then he would go like write music for two hours. And he was like driving it taxi and doing plumbing while he was writing his first opera. I couldn't believe that that was just still grinding like that. And it was just such a, it was so cool to see that. But it speaks to, as you said, being able to connect with the actual world. And shockingly, now whenever everyone's so anxious and freaked out, typically, you look at what would the advice that a lot of therapists have and they say, get your hands busy when you're feeling overwhelmed with freaked out, go garden, go tend to something, to realign your connection and your balance with what's right in front of you. Yeah, tend to something that's beautiful. Yeah. Yeah, that's really beautiful. You know, I was saying earlier that I think, you know, we have this interference pattern that sort of cycles between the brain and the throat. And all of these activities get us into our whole body. Yoga is a wonderful thing. But I think that when you get out, I love personally writing bicycles. I love to explore and poke into these places. I got a bike for the beach, a bike for the mountains. And it's just so engaging. You're out there, you're breathing, you're pedaling, you're guiding your exploring..

"The universe. The individual is an aperture through which the universe becomes aware of itself. And we need to be good students. We need to learn something from this relationship and actually manifest it in our lives. And so he loved material culture, teas, in senses, woodworking, he ended up living in a community of woodworkers, roger summers, and had styles where woodworkers is to next door neighbors Elsa across the path was an organic gardener and a poet and I think that one of the happiest days I ever saw him. He would either come down to get the mail or I would drive up with the mail. And he was supposed to come down, but around 11, he hadn't showed up. So I called him and I said, dad, are you coming or should I come up? And he said, oh, come up. I'm sorry I forgot completely. And he was obviously very excited about something. And so I got up there and he had rice paper spread out all over the deck in front of his cabin, which was called the mandala. And he was doing calligraphy. But what he was so excited about was due to the weather nature of the deck boards. Every stroke that he did would print through the wood grain. And so it was doing calligraphy plus wood grain rubbing all in one stroke. He was just having such a good time. And I helped him pick the ones up he'd done, and we hung them in the library to make sure they get totally dry. And he rolled out some more paper and I did a couple. He did a bunch more. And, you know, that just being with it. That wonderful, wonderful thing. And I think this was very well known in the 60s and we've lost a lot of its sense. I mean, Gary Snyder did carpentry and odd jobs wasn't afraid to physically work at all. It was a generation that was much more physically connected, you know, sculptors and painters. And the one of the problems that we have as we use technology more and more is that there's less connection with the actual physical world. And you don't see these renaissance men that can do mechanics and gardening and painting and woodworking. I mean, it's just kind of something that's fading away. And I.

"And it was the funniest thing I've ever heard. And we actually in our collection. But he's talking to a group of psychologists and psychiatrists, and he says, you know, in about basically western religion and the difference between a religion in which we deify the divine or which we try and have it inhabit us and try and manifest the divine. And that was the essence of his talk. So he said at the end he says, okay, well you're all mostly doctors and professors here. So let's have a clinical experience. And I want you to pretend that I'm a patient who's come to your facility and I believe that I'm gone. And so naturally in your professional role you're going to examine me. So I invite you to examine me and ask any question that you like. And the results are absolutely hilarious. I mean, it was funny because I had a woman that worked for us at the time and I actually hired her because she wasn't in the interested in the philosophy. She was such a good person and such a great worker. She would get stuff done because I'd hired a couple of other women. They always wanted to talk about the plastic, but this woman wanted to never did. But when that talk came on in the studio, she said, oh my God, that's so great. And so all these questions about were you always got and they ask all sort of the practical questions. And then later at esslin, I was recording him one time at a talk called Buddhist endows meditations. And he kind of did a really great riff on his imitated the child asking his mommy questions. And so mommy, what did God do before he made the world? It's just really, really great. But that's him and his core. I mean, he's the curious, curious child. And he never lost that. He never lost that youthful love of knowledge..

"And she really wanted to talk to him and he said, okay, okay, and off we went to this redwood grove and sat down. And she said, well, Alan, I have to tell you, I think I'm going to commit suicide. And he said, well, really, that's interesting. I mean, and they got into this discussion. And he actually spent almost two hours with her. And basically his approach was, well, that's outrageous. I mean, we can do it. There's so many outrageous things we can do. But if you're willing to do something that outrageous, I mean, why aren't you willing to do all these other outrageous things to turn your life around to get what you want? And she completely got it. She said, yeah, I'm not playing the terrible role. I need to change my act. That's amazing. I did see her in another seminar, maybe two years later. So I know she didn't. That's so cool. I mean, what an incredible technique. It's almost like this vipassana approach to tragedy where it's like, so it brings you something heavy and sort of tragic or existential. And it's like, well, let's just ask questions about that until it becomes the truth is revealed and it becomes kind of funny and it takes the teeth out of the severity of how it seems. So I'm curious as a fellow, often accidental social contact breaker. Whenever, for example, when the lady came up to him and said, hey, you know, what happened to me after that? And he left. Did he take a moment to then say, oh, sorry about that. And then explain. Okay. Apologize. And I'm not laughing at you. If you could only see yourself. Dear. I mean, it was so sweet. But I wondered if you plowed through or if there was a moment of, okay, sorry, let's reset. You know, it was obvious for my father delivery that he'd never was laughing at anyone. Or he never spoke down to anyone. You could just get the feeling from him that he was always playing with it. You know, he was like, it's like a kid in a candy store. All of these great ideas, all of these great things. So that really came through in his delivery. A psychologist once told me about a thing we didn't ever recording of it, but it was in Gainesville, Florida. It was a presentation of papers. It sounded like it was pretty boring, symposium. And so that's probably why he didn't record it. But he was W so he was the last person to present. And person after person before him got up into the lectern and given their presentations about some aspect of humanistic psychology, I don't recall what it was. And instead of taking what it was finally his turn, instead of taking the stage and getting behind the podium, he went down and he set at the edge of the stage on the edge of the stage and looked out at the audience. And he just began to chuckle. And we kind of looked at him. And then he began a giggle. And after that, there was a little Terry the audience. And then he just started laughing and people just went with it. They cracked up. And the guy who was telling me the story said, I would have liked to have told you that at that point he got up and he left, you know, like the zen master hitting his fan and leaving, but no, he did, and he got up and gave the best talk on the human condition that I've ever heard..

"That's why we're still married. It is very funny. It's good. Everybody. Speaking of the humor. That's one of the beautiful things about your father's work is how just everything, even the most times, even he would get very serious about this. And it was more, of course, to quote him sincere Ness. Seriousness about something. To really bring in the gravity and the kind of the theater and really land some big truth. It always resolved and laughter. And that laughter was always there right under the surface, just waiting to come out and bring and put balance into some of perhaps what could be seen as heaviness of some of the other ideas because he was doing some pretty heavy lifting it a lot of times, you know, big philosophical ideas. And so I'm curious from your perspective, you know, to get into thinking that heavily in that complicated and also just for so long, how do you think that he kept the ability to stay light and to stay un cynical and unjaded and playful? I mean, that's such a feat to stay playful for your whole life like that. Well, I think he was with that core, you know, divine cosmic drama dance in his heart. And he was very curious person. So who's delightfully going for one thing to another? Oh my goodness, you know, Mark. I don't have time to read this book, read it and tell me everything that's wonderful about. I know it's going to be good. I'm going to take two books. You give me two. And because we fielded the mail for him for a couple of years. And everybody wanted his review or his forward or something. And but I think that he was basically with that game. You know, realizing that everybody was playing a part. And I actually was recording him at a seminar once. And at the end, I had to go up and get the microphone off and before he got up and walked away and would drag it with him a little clip microphone. And so I was right there when a woman came up very seriously and said, put Alan, what is going to happen to me when I die? And he burst out laughing. And he wasn't being insensitive. He's just, you thought it was funny. It was funny. Seriously, she was taking all this and just the expression on her face and everything. And he says, well, my dear that depends on who's asking the question. Now, if you just identify this with this little piece of yourself, who is worried about these kind of things, fortunately, you'll be completely annihilated. However, if you realize that that's not what you really are and that you're inexplicable thing to her. It was really beautiful. Burst out and laughter. And then I remember another really serious time when we were at bridge mountain in Santa Cruz. And we'd given a seminar afterwards, there was a woman who was troubled. I mean, I could feel it..

"More aware of your surroundings and the other things that are going on. But because you're not actually trying to force something from your own point of view, you can relax. It's not there's no agenda, as you said, the witness, is that kind of an idea, to where you can actually just be, first of all, an observer, but really, truly a participant. You become more of a participant than you are when you're contracted. Yeah, absolutely. And I always find that rebalancing the mind in that way, particularly if you're feeling anxious. It's good to do if you're just enjoying yourself as well. But if you're feeling anxious or kind of tight about something a freaked out and then zooming out in that way, it really exposes the absurdity of the fact that your uptight at all. It's like, wait, this kind of hairless classy, fancy monkey, stuck to a rock floating in the middle of infinity. In this rock has been around for 3 billion years and I'm this little wiggly kind of fleshy wave of consciousness that has this minute little lifespan amongst billions of us. Why am I worried about typing this email properly or whatever? This is so it just turns into laughter because the absurdity of the fact that as you mentioned earlier, how strong our minds are that they can wind this up with a story that seems so real and so the stakes are so high that we get so pulled into it that we lose track of just the true nature of reality. And this allows us to breathe in and out with our perspective. And we can, you know, at times, yes, it's totally appropriate to be completely engaged, and at times it's not, or it's no longer useful, or it's just adding stress to a situation. So you can disengage and lapse into another easier way of being. My father had a very funny thing that he said, which was, you know, people were always coming to him with, you know, people from the free speech movement or whatever. They say, Alan, it's a huge problem. We've got to jump into action. Even Margaret Mead did this with a campaigning about nuclear weapons. Alan, you know, we need to align ourselves get a crusade going, and blah, blah, you know, and he said, oh, I don't know, you know? I have a theory that when somebody presents a problem to me, particularly, say, a business that I'll let it sit for 30 days. And see if it resolves itself. And Margaret, of course, would say, oh, you know, you have no love for your future generations and this is kind of scare me. Pretty agitated about this. You might push the button first to keep somebody else from pushing it. And see in their lies sort of the key to it. And it was really funny because he repeated this story while he was on tour in Japan to a group of people about this letting things go for 30 days. And he said, you know, some people would bother me about it, but some people understood what I was doing. And his third wife, jano, chimed in, but Alan, I've never done that. And he says, yes, dear, I know..

"And so I think it was much easier for me having grown up with my dad telling us stories like that that it might be for people who never experienced that potential look at reality. Wow, wouldn't it what an incredible gift and injected into your ecosystem of thought is it? Yeah, and I think though that meditation is a great way. It's easy to say it's important to go out of your mind at least once a day to come to your senses. Because a person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts and lives in a world of illusions. And because it's just thoughts upon thoughts upon thoughts. And I look at thinking as a yes, a useful tool, but generally as an interference pattern. I mean, it's a little cycle that goes between our throat and our brain, and in our bodies, physically, physiologically, energetically. And it creates a little whirlwind of confusion and aspiration, all Buddhists talk about desire. And it would desire is, is this a misidentification of ourselves with that wanting or longing a process that that generates, and so I think in meditation, what happens is it laps as long enough for us to realize that there is a much greater system at work there than that little interference whirlwind that goes along. Yeah, I always say that meditation pauses the story in your mind long enough for you to remember that your mind is telling you a story. Exactly. And you know, my father, he loved that though. I mean, he looked at all of this playfully. If you're going to play a play and pick a role, have a great one, make it outrageous one. Let's have fun with this..

"And but it's only half as bright. And that little comet that it's only half as bright. I didn't even pay attention to it for 30 years. I mean, I heard it, but I didn't really think about the significance of that. But as technology has developed and people have become more fascinated with it, I realized that that brightness and I don't mean literal brightness. I mean, sort of the level of engagement that we tend to have as egocentric beings is a bright shiny object. Silver bullets is what we're looking for. And so we become attuned to or used to dealing with things on that level. That there are going to be solutions that they're going to be elegant answers, that they're going to be all kinds of things that are going to keep us engaged and moving forward. But if you think about the floodlight and the more organic process that we're really all a part of, you realize that below that field of magnified attention or I shouldn't say below, I should say encompassing all of that is the life envelope, the ecosphere, this world, each other, so many individuated centers of attention that all work together as a network, the apples on the tree. And unfortunately, this over emphasis on this mechanism detracts from our ability to appreciate that or work with that or even resonate within that. And that's where I think as a culture and certainly worldwide at this point, we really have some deep problems. Yeah, just beautifully, beautifully said. And the notion of mistaken identity, the way that, for me, how I had the concept in my mind for years. And it's interesting those types of ideas. You tend to have the idea first, and it just takes a bit of time to ripen.

"Is now. Let's go do it. Let's go talk to the brilliant and wise. Mark watts. You know, whenever we were talking on the phone the other day, you told me about something that I thought was really fascinating. And that was that you were trying to identify these three inroads to your father's work, which would basically be and tell me if I'm not describing this. Properly. But someone who perhaps had either no reference of your father's work or had some reference, but we're looking for somewhere how to get to the core, like what are these ways that you could really get in there and kind of get the foundation and what you shared with me as we were talking was beautiful but I'd love if you could share each of those three inroads and then we'll just kind of talk about each one. Sure. You know, it's different now. There was a time when people had only read my father's books and when they came across the audio they were just astonished and these were back in the radio days of the 90s and even going as far back as the 70s. But now it's very different in that most of the people that come to the works have heard a little bit either through social media. They get something or somebody directs them to a YouTube piece and somehow they're introduced to him saying something that is very magical to them. So they usually come with a lot of enthusiasm and but there's kind of a phenomenon about it that I kind of compare it to when Joseph Campbell's works were big. There were people who really understood a lot of his messaging and then there were those kind of follow your bliss people. They got that deep into his stuff. And like this situation, it took an effort to sort of point them to what would resonate on a deeper level..

"Hey Friends what's going on? Welcome to the ASTRO hustle. I am Cory Allen. You are you and here we are together. In this moment of time, hopes if you're doing good today and that you're feeling all right, I've got a very special podcast here today. I just can't wait to share this with you. My guests on the show is Mark watts. Mark is a brilliant thinker, an audio archivist and the son of the great legendary writer Alan watts. In this beautiful podcast, Mark shares what he thinks the inroads are kind of the foundational aspects of his father's work, as well as tons of just great stories of growing up with them, traveling around with him, any shares the beautiful path of his own life and thinking and how his father helped influence that along the way. I know you're gonna love this episode. This podcast is sponsored by better help online therapy. Relationships take work. A lot of us will drop anything to help someone we care about. We'll go out of our way to treat other people well, but how often do we give ourselves the same treatment? Self care, taking care of you, making sure that you're feeling good and charged up in positive, is so important. And sometimes I can look like going to the gym, getting a haircut, whatever it might be, but other times it can look like getting therapy. So if you feel like something's interfering with your happiness, then I highly recommend talking to a therapist, at least once just to try it out and see how it feels to be. Better help is online therapy that offers videos, phone, and even live chat sessions with your therapist. So you don't have to see anyone on camera if you don't want to. It's much more affordable than in person therapy, and you can be matched with a therapist under 48 hours..

"With a group of students matters to teach his unique philosophy of set to america. Now in that program. Alan watts s people. These three questions he said. If you ponder these questions enough it unlocks a lot of new meaning in your life. The questions are who am i. What do i desire in. What do i know now. These questions sounds simple enough right but it goes way deeper last week. I was with allen son mark. Watts it was me the mind valley team and marks team. We are working on a new quest with alan walks and this quest goes deep into these questions plus two additional questions but mark explained to me why these questions was so profound in. These questions are why people today. Hundreds of millions of people love alan watts allen. What stands in the house. Raise your hand and make some noise. He's so influential volvo. Just use one of his talks in one of the advertisements. This was like six months ago. Now the reason these questions are important. According to mark watts is that. There's a sanskrit term called oprah and pyeho really means to get back in flow so mark. Explain it this way. He says imagine in india just as wild river flowing and the boatman there know exactly where to aim their boat so that when they take off from the power of the the bank they can gently navigate through the flow of the river through all the rocks and danger points and hit the opposite bank. That is pyre. It's being pointed in the right direction so that no matter how dangerous the rapid saw or whatever rocks come in the way you end up going to where you wanna go and he said these five questions are like pya for your soul for your mind when you truly truly truly reflect an answer. These spy type zen questions no matter what crap comes your way you know how to navigate that and get back to flow you guys get me so now. Let's take what alan watts was speaking about and connected with a model that you guys know as mine valley students and that is the model from my book. The call up the extraordinary mind. We're talk about the four different levels of evolution. Because as i was listening to mark. I realized that those three questions you would answer them differently depending on where you are in this particular model of conscious evolution so i let me explain this model. This model basically says that at each level of your conscious evolution you react to the world and shake the world in different ways so let's go deeper right many people in the world today. The majority of human beings exist at level one. They are living in what we call the culture escape and at this level the world happens to them but at a certain point people start questioning they start waking up they go to level two. I call that the awakening. This is where they realized that you can choose certain experiences in the world. Now when you do that enough you go to level three level. Three call recording yourself. This is where you realize that. Wait a minute. The world isn't just outside. The world is incite you as well and you start paying attention to your inner world as soon as you start going within this opens you up to level four and level force where i say you really start. Becoming extraordinary level. Four is where an important ship happens that completely transforms how you live your life and it puts you in perhaps what could be the one to five percent of human beings in the world today who are truly fulfilled. Happy and giving back. We'll explore that in a moment first. Let's look at the three questions right. Who am i. What do i desire. What do i know who am i. What do i desire. What do i know and in each of these levels. We're going to ask these three questions. And i'm going to show you a couple of things that connects what allen said to more than signs more than philosophers and many of teachers here at mine valley. let's start with level one. The culture escape so the culture escape is that tangled web of rituals of beliefs of ideas that come from culture whether you live in a tribe in some developing part of the world or you live in a modern tribe such as cooperation all of us are part of this culture escape in other words the world that we exist in is really a world that is happening cognitively in our minds based on beliefs rituals culture social indoctrination. And what are mom and dad and our media and a priest and our teachers and preachers. Tell us to be doing think. That's the culture escape but we don't see that because like a fish swimming in water. We don't realize that the rules in which we live life are not necessarily true for everyone else are only true for us because of our conditioning. Now the problem with this culture escape is that many people believe it's real and thus the become a victim of the culture escape the things that happened to them a break up a business. Failure being hospitalized severely influenced them. The worl- happens to them now. The interesting thing is alan watts said none of this stuff is real in fact. There's a famous lecture by alan watts. I'm going to play you a minute of that. Where he says this. There is no such thing as a thing. Nine to five is a thing. No such thing. Marriage religion god.

But that's a bunch of shit. They're going to go after them. They're going to try to meet to him after he's dead. They're going to say all sorts of bad shit. They're going to turn the microphone on to a couple of girls who want to save bad shit because whatever reason, they fell out of favor the mansion. And I'll tell you in a second why a lot of girls fall out of favor at the mansion. It's not because you have to a meme wasn't mean man. Because he had principle principles of certain things and some of those girls broke those pencils. Some of those girls had cost them the playmate of the year. I'll get to that in a second.
