Alan Watts Intro Video (MV)

And so self consciousness is neurological resonance
Now you know how troublesome resonance can get
If it's not properly worked out
You can get echoes that just won't stop
So you go into a great cave somewhere and you say
Hi, it goes hiyayayayayayayayaya all up in the distance, see
That's very confusing
Now that's the sort of snarl that self consciousness can get into
And we call it anxiety
When I keep keep keep thinking did I do the right thing
In the course of some performance
If I am constantly aware of myself
In a kind of anxious critical way
My resonance becomes too high
So I get confused and jittery
But if you learn that
Self consciousness has limits
That self awareness can not possibly enable you
To be free of making mistakes
You could learn to be spontaneous in spite of being self aware
And enjoy the echo
