'Out of Your Mind: Tricksters, Interdependence, and the Cosmic Game of Hide and Seek' immerses the reader in six of @Alan Watts' most engaging teachings on how to break through the limits of the rational mind tp expand awareness and appreciation for the great game unfolding all around us. [1] Out of Your Mind invites readers into Watts' favorite pathways out of the trap of conventional awareness, including: (1) The art of the "controlled accident" and what happens when you stop taking life so seriously and start enjoying it with complete sincerity. (2) How we come to believe "the myth of myself"and that we are skin-encapsulated egos separate from the world around us; to transcend that illusion. ::embed[https://www.youtube.com/embed/1qhEq0dNRpA]{provider=youtube}
Quotes
"In order to come to your senses, you sometimes need to go out of your mind." ~ Alan Watts
"When one speaks of awakening it means de-hypnotization; coming to one's senses. But of course to do that, you have to go out of your mind."
"I find it a little difficult to say what the subject matter of this seminar is going to be because it's too fundamental to give it a title. I'm going to talk about what there is." ~ Alan Watts
