Histoire5 out of 5 stars 6
Space is considered to be nothingness by many. But after all it is the background in which we see everything. It is against space and within the dimension of time that we experience everything we experience. Space and time are the two basic dimensions of our world but are uncommonly illusive. We can say they are our way of thinking of the universe as being a system of patterns. And our awe at the vastness of space may be man's astonishment at himself.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 45
Alan W. Watts' "message for an age of anxiety" is as powerful today as it was when this modern classic was first published. We spend too much time trying to anticipate and plan for the future, too much time lamenting the past. We often miss the pleasures of the moment in our anxious efforts to ensure the next moment is as enjoyable. Drawing from Eastern philosophy and religion, Watts argues that it is only by acknowledging what we do not and cannot know that we can find something truly worth knowing.

Histoire5 out of 5 stars 4
Deep down, most people think that happiness comes from having or doing something. Here, in Alan Watts’s groundbreaking third book (originally published in 1940), he offers a more challenging thesis: authentic happiness comes from embracing life as a whole in all its contradictions and paradoxes, an attitude that Watts calls the “way of acceptance.” Drawing on Eastern philosophy, Western mysticism, and analytic psychology, Watts demonstrates that happiness comes from accepting both the outer world around us and the inner world inside us,

Alan Watts discusses the fundamental attitudes that run through all religions or "ways of liberation," as the Far Eastern disciplines might better be described. By following these practices to the extremes of repentance, rebellion, and resignation, one may be freed from the endless cycles of reincarnation which perpetuate the human condition.

Modern Western culture and technology is inextricably tied to the belief in the existence of a self as a separate ego, separated from and in conflict with the rest of the world. In this classic book, Watts provides a lucid and simple presentation of an alternative view based on Hindu and Vedantic philosophy.

Weak
Not much in the way of content. This is more or less an Alan Watts record of a guided meditation. There are better lessons in meditation and mindfulness available nowadays.

Alan Watts is a loveable, accessible genius
Would you listen to Still the Mind again? Why?
The value of this audio title rests in the fact that Watts himself is recorded. Charming, revealing and empathetic, Watts is a brilliant speaker and his approach to understanding meditation is singular.

Insightful.
Nothing can quite beat the subtle reminder that we are capable of relieving our minds when we let go. Much like muddy waters, most of our thoughts are clouded until we allow it to settle.
Alan W. Watts provides a unique way of explaining this kind of process. With a captivating voice and wise choosing of vocabulary he can show you much of what you've been missing this whole time.

One of the finest Alan Watts performances
This book really hits deep. Some key takeaways are:
-Intellectual Theologians side with God because he's the big boss in the sky, with the biggest battalions. What the hell are we supposed to do about that?
-Life is now. Right now. We are straining ourselves with a nervous, overwrought sense of self that is a misunderstanding of how we are supposed to actually be.
-the self is an illusion, thoughts that can only think about thinking are lost
-the quivering self is what we are deep down inside, and meditation brings understanding to assuage that self.
-our sense of identity doesn't take into account our hippocampus, or pineal gland, or our physical body at all
there's more gold in hear, great to hear.
another good one was that when we meditate we can observe thoughts just as if they were on the outside of ourselves. we are the watcher

A good snack for the mind
I enjoy listening to Alan Watts. Very soothing and inviting. The chapters didn't all line up in theme but were wonderful little <5 minute shorts that were like a mental snack. Comforting and intriguing listen.

Not the book. Just a lecture.
I have the book with this cover and it’s extremely well written and organized. What’s on this recording is some lecture that touches on a couple of those principles but is much more casual and they are collectively just singing together for a large portion of it. I’m gonna try to get audible to rectify this.
