In this unique episode of Being in the Way, Alan Watts offers tribute to the life, humor, magic and ‘nonsense wisdom’ of writer, G. K. Chesterton.

This series is brought to you by the Alan Watts Organization and Ram Dass’ Love Serve Remember Foundation. Visit Alanwatts.org/ for full talks from Alan Watts.

00:00 - G.K. Chesterton & Wonder // God, Surprise, & the Universe
11:08 - Improbable and Magical // Nonsense & Humor
24:00 - Meaning, Music, & the Dance of God // Singing Hallelujah with the Angels

“I read G.K. Chesterton’s works very carefully, and I have by osmosis imbibed an enormous amount of wisdom from him. Funny thing is, not so much in terms of specific ideas, as in basic attitude to life. This is a man, who above all virtues, has what I think is one of the greatest virtues which we don’t usually find catalogued—he had a sense of wonder.” – Alan Watts

    “Laughter is threatening to tyrants” Just brilliant.

    "the angels fly because they take themselves lightly" 😇
  • Listening to Alan is my new bedtime routine. His orator skills are an art form unto itself. Puts me to sleep every night without question.
  • Dear random person, I send you light.. You are a necessary part of this universe and a piece of the creator experiencing life in the universe with free will

    Alan Watts is the best guidance a 45-year-old child like myself can experience. His wiggly presence is forever with me. I've learned to understand the insiignificance of trying to comprehend the uncomprehensible craftfully wiggly universe laid for all of us to enjoy. and have fun. Although I did not have the privilege to meet him in person, his words, his laughter, his charisma, his swager, and his wilggle is all I need to be able to say things like my best friend Jacob used to say, "...When you see me do what I do, that's what I'm doing!... - (Jacob De Leon [RIP]). I love you Alan Watts! And I love you too Jacob De Leon. I miss you both. Thank you for all you shared with us. Best! David Guillen

    "he had a unique virtue:. He had a sense of wonder"
  • i cant even begin to count how many times I have listened to all of his lectures and content online and I seldomly come across anything I have not heard but this I can say I have not heard. I am very thankful for you and your channel! Thank you! It is amazing how most of his words seem like he is simply telling you something you already knew but were somehow unaware of it until he reminds you.

    Alan Watts LIVES! Thankfully we have his recorded messages of explanation of the metaphysical world! His message is timeless! Eastern & Western thought brought together in a lasting way. Just Be Here NOW! ♥♥♥

    Alan Watts has been a father figure I've looked up to for many years and will be the father figure I look up to for many years to come 🙌🏽
  • @accadia1983
    This is a special episode as it brings the important experiment of dreaming ourselves (and the world) into existence and what dream we would like. Mental view defines the world. What defines our mental view? Our minds make up the world. May you be happy ❤️

    My teacher for a long time now. God rest his soul. ♥️
  • @nwsanagnwsths
    A beautiful speech! Aftet all bcz of his previous christianity and the reference on the book of Jov. It is original and profound and playfully joyous. Its his Christianity - Chestertons Christianity. Full of creativeness and play and of humourous laughter!
