> "The Swami retorted that if Watts was really enlightened, he would feel no suffering, not even a pinch." This article really is a hatchet job. It's the worst take with the worst references to source from. Enlightened has nothing to do with not feeling pain. The article goes on to judge his personal life as well as his children. The article quotes Alan as having not been a good father, but who can say they have lived the ideal? This is the same kind opinion piece that would call Mr Rogers an evil man [0].
