Going by a Dark Night of the Soul | Alan Watts |

Are you feeling lost, empty, or disconnected from life—even though nothing seems “wrong” on the surface? This deeply reflective 30-minute motivational speech, “Going by a Dark Night of the Soul?”, explores one of the most misunderstood inner experiences: the collapse of meaning before awakening.

Through calm, philosophical insight, the speech guides you through the dark night of the soul, helping you understand why stillness becomes the teacher, why identity feels like it’s dying, and why you are not broken—even when everything feels like it’s falling apart.
