You Don’t Exist the Way You Think You Do | Alan Watts

Описание

If you talk all the time, you'll never hear what anybody else has to say... The same is true for people who think all the time. In this profound lecture, philosopher Alan Watts explores the art of stillness and the profound limitations of our own minds. He argues that our constant internal chatter the endless stream of thoughts, symbols, and words prevents us from experiencing the world as it truly is. Watts invites us to stop thinking, not as an act of ignorance, but as a discipline to connect with what he calls the "unspeakable, non-verbal world." By quieting the mind, we can move beyond concepts and discover the magic hidden in the most ordinary moments of life. Join Alan Watts as he discusses the goal of action, the practice of meditation (Zazen), and the realization that the transcendental and the everyday world are one and the same. ---------- Take action and strengthen your mind with The Resilient Mind Journal.
