Weisheit des ungesicherten Lebens

Books That Change Our Lives: The Wisdom Classic by Alan Watts

Alan Watts was rightly regarded as a genius in conveying the essence of the great spiritual traditions. His spiritual wisdom book is a radical assessment of our lives and consciousness. Watts uncovers all the false assumptions about what we consider to be reality. He does not shy away from discussing the individual and collective power impulses and fears that lead to these beliefs. We constantly strive to plan and control life more and more. We go to incredible lengths just to feel safer. However, behind this lies an anxious self that feels threatened by the world.

Alan Watts shows us the way to a deeper dimension of consciousness. We learn how to face life completely openly and fearlessly. Mindfulness, as the living awareness from moment to moment, is the key to dealing with pain of any kind. For the resistance to pain is the real pain. Alan Watts makes the "wisdom of an unsecured life" a book that is both wise and helpful for personal development. In doing so, the legendary spiritual teacher draws the essence from the spiritual traditions of Zen and Daoism in his own unique and inspiring way.
