Out of Your Mind
Book • 2017
This book is derived from Alan Watts’ pinnacle lectures and seminars, carefully selected by his son and archivist, Mark Watts.
It delves into Watts' favorite pathways out of conventional awareness, including the art of the 'controlled accident', how to transcend the illusion of the self as a skin-encapsulated ego, and the importance of embracing chaos and the void to find one's deepest purpose.
The book offers unconventional and refreshing insights into Buddhism, Hinduism, and Western philosophy, encouraging readers to approach life with a sense of play and fun rather than seriousness and struggle.
