Alan Watts - Part 5 The Tao of Philosophy - Myth of Myself
"The Tao of Philosophy: The Myth of Myself" is a book written by Alan Watts that explores the concept of the self and its relation to the universe. The book argues that the self is not a fixed entity but rather a constantly changing process that is intimately connected to the world around it.
Watts suggests that the way we see ourselves as separate from the universe is a mere illusion, and that in reality, we are all interconnected and interdependent. He discusses the Eastern philosophy of Taoism and how it offers a different perspective on the self, emphasizing the importance of living in harmony with nature rather than trying to dominate it.
The book encourages readers to let go of their ego and embrace the interconnectedness of all things. It suggests that by doing so, we can find a sense of peace and purpose in life. Overall, "The Tao of Philosophy: The Myth of Myself" offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the nature of the self and its relationship to the world around us.
