Akira The Don, Alan Watts - The Secret (WATTSWAVE VI: THE WEB OF LIFE 2) lyrics

In exploring the theme of the web of life
I have thus far
Discussed two principle topics
First the web considered as selectivity
Experience considered as what
We pay attention to on the one hand
And what we ignore on the other
And I showed how the way in which we
Pay attention to the world creates
Isolates that we call particular things
Events and persons
And they seem to be disconnected
And to be alone because we
Ignore the connection between them
And I use the analogy of weaving
Where the threads go underneath and
Join on the back in
A way that is not seen on the front
So you might say in the unconscious
Although I don't particularly like that word
Because it makes it seem as if
It was something rather dead
But on the unconscious side of life, as
On the back of the weaving
Or the back of the embroidery

There are connections which are not published
There are connections which are not published
There are connections which are not published
There are connections which are not published

Now in the second part of the
Scene was the web as mutuality
When I discussed the way the
Existence of a web
The existence of cloth or anything like that
Depends on a mutual support of the
Warp and the woof and
This miraculous thing occurs that when
The things support each other
Being comes into being
Cloth comes into being
And so in exactly the same way
Our world is a manifestation of relativity
And this requires a balanced combination
A relationship of opposites in
Every domain of life
And although these opposites
Are explicitly different
And even antagonistic
They are implicitly one implicitly one
They are implicitly one
And that's the secret

There are connections which are not published
A relationship of opposites in
Every domain of life
There are connections which are not published
There are connections which are not published
A relationship of opposites in
Every domain of life
There are connections which are not published
There are implicitly one
And that's the secret

See there are these two secrets
That we have went into
The connection between what are supposed to
Be separate things and events
And mutual unity between what are manifesting
That is to say openly
For purposes of publication, opposites
Now, I'm going to take two
Other aspects of the web

There are connections which are not published
A relationship of opposites in
Every domain of life
There are connections which are not published
There are connections which are not published
A relationship of opposites in
Every domain of life
There are connections which are not published
There are implicitly one
And that's the secret
