Death - Essential Lecture, Program 8
(Allan Watts,
):
Like you sitting in this room, you think you're really here. Well, you've persuaded yourself that way. You've acted it so damn well that you KNOW that this is the real world. But you're playing it.
We have to realize that life and death, black and white, good and evil, being and non-being, come from the same center - they imply each other. What you are basically, deep deep down, far far in, is simply the fabric and structure of existence itself.
What exists: Reality itself - is gorgeous! It is the clean-up, the fullness of total joy

Death - Essential Lecture, Program 8
(Allan Watts,
):
"If I go back, when I'm dead, to the state where I was before I was born, couldn’t I happen again? You know, what has happened once can very well happen again, If it happened once, it's extraordinary. And it's not really very much more extraordinary if it happened all over again. So, in other words, I do know for certain, because I’ve seen people die and I've seen people born after them, that at any rate, after I die not only somebody, but myriads of other beings will be born... that I know, we all know that, there's no doubt about it. But what worries us is that, when we're dead, there could be nothing at all for ever, as if that were something to worry about. Before you were born there was this same nothing at all for ever, and yet you happened. And if you happened once, you could happen again. Now what does that mean?"
