Why Spiritually Awake People Don't Have Many Friends - Alan Watts Why do so many spiritually awake people find themselves walking a quieter path, often with fewer friends? This is not about loneliness, but a fundamental shift in connection. If you feel a growing distance from old relationships as you awaken, this is for you. This video explores a deep and often misunderstood truth: spiritual awakening changes the nature of your relationships, not because you become detached from people, but because you become attached to something more real. It is about the solitude that comes when you no longer seek yourself in the eyes of others. Alan Watts explains why the search for approval and social validation falls away, and how this can look like isolation from the outside. This isn't a lesson in becoming a hermit, but an understanding of why your circle may shrink as your consciousness expands. It reveals the peace found when friendship is no longer a need, but a choice.
