Alan Watts - Perfectly Easy

Показать описание

“It seems that the human being really has a very simple kind of mind, and all this wiggliness is too complicated. I don't think it really is complicated, because ,after all, it's very simple to move, say to raise something, or to open and close your hand is perfectly easy, because we don't have to think about it. Things become complicated only when we think about them, and that's because we're trying to translate them into a form of life which is very much simpler and cruder than the forms of life we're talking about. A triangle is very much simpler and cruder than a mountain, even though you may represent a mountain with a triangle.”

Recorded in 1971 at Druid Heights, above Muir Woods near San Francisco. This clip is from the NET pilot "Conversation with Myself," a TV series exploring life's big questions. Created by Alan Watts, Mark Watts, and Henry Jacobs.

“Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Alan Watts had the rare gift of ‘writing beautifully the un-writable’. Watts begins with scholarship and intellect and proceeds with art and eloquence to the frontiers of the spirit. A fascinating entry into the deepest ways of knowing.” — Los Angeles Times
