Stop Holding On. It’s Ruining Everything. | Alan Watts

Описание: Why are we so exhausted? Perhaps it is because we are spending our entire lives trying to push the river instead of letting it carry us.

In this beautiful meditation on the nature of "Flow," Alan Watts explores the ancient paradox: The river flows best when it forgets its source. We dive into why human beings cling so tightly to the past, to their identities, and to the illusion of control—and how this clinging creates the very suffering we are trying to avoid.

We often imagine life is something we must manage, steer, and force into submission. But what if life is not a solid object to be held, but a fluid movement to be experienced? What if the feeling of falling apart is actually just the feeling of falling into place?

In this video, you will discover:

1. The River Metaphor: Why looking backward at your "source" (your past) stops your flow.

2. The Dam of the Ego: How trying to "hold yourself together" blocks your natural energy.

3. The Illusion of Control: Why we are terrified of the current, even though it is the only thing supporting us.

4. Verbs vs. Nouns: Why you are not a static "person," but a dynamic "happening."

5. The Power of Trust: How to finally let go and allow the universe to navigate for you.

If you are tired of fighting the current, if you feel the weight of your past dragging you down, or if you are simply ready to put down the heavy armor of identity, this message is for you.

Step into the river. The water is safe.
