To Be Completely Safe Is To Be Completely Dead | Alan Watts

To Be Completely Safe Is To Be Completely Dead | Alan Watts We are taught that life is serious business—a journey, a test, a problem to be solved. But in this brilliant lecture, Alan Watts suggests that life is actually a Game. Watts explains that a good game requires a balance between control and chaos. If you could predict the future with 100% accuracy, you would be bored to tears. He compares life to a jazz improvisation or Chinese calligraphy, where the beauty lies not in perfect precision, but in the "controlled accident"—the willingness to let the ink bleed or the wrong note play. We explore why our obsession with safety and order is actually killing our joy, and why the "Technician" controls everything while the "Creator" allows the unknown to enter the room. In this video, you will discover: The Game Theory: Why life is best lived like poker or chess—a mix of skill and mystery. The Boredom of Certainty: Why knowing exactly when you will die or fall in love would ruin the surprise. Jazz vs. Engineering: Why life is not a blueprint but an improvisation. The Controlled Accident: How true artists invite chaos to create character and soul. Safety vs. Aliveness: Why "to be completely safe is to be completely dead". Technician vs. Creator: Why you must stop trying to be perfect and start being real. The Danger of Righteousness: Why a righteous person can be more destructive than a greedy one. 4.
