Good morning Alan Watts Community,
We're proud to announce a newly public talk available for immediate listening: "Individual and the World (1-4)."
Alan explores the nature of self and our relationship with the universe, challenging the conventional sense of "I" as a separate ego.
He critiques the 19th-century scientific view of a mechanical, unfeeling cosmos, which fosters alienation and drives destructive technological exploitation. Watts proposes a transformation in consciousness to recognize the self as an interconnected process within a unified field, drawing from ecological science, Zen, and Krishnamurti’s teachings.
Alan emphasizes the need for a new approach to technology, rooted in ecological harmony, and advocates for disciplines like Zen meditation to ground mystical experiences, particularly for the youth. Watts also urges older generations to embrace spontaneity and "disciplined craziness" to overcome psychic rigidity, preparing for death as a liberating act of letting go.
This talk is a compelling call to reframe our existence and reconnect with the nonverbal, spontaneous world.
We thank you for your continued support as dedicated members.
Cheers,
The Alan Watts Org
