Season 1, Episode 12 Essential Lectures of Alan Watts, Conversation With Myself. Alan Watts points to humankind's attempts to straighten out a wiggly world as the root of our ecological crisis. Here in 1971, he predicts the upcoming global consequences of human manipulation of the biosphere and points to a reconsidered way of our place in nature to avert an inevitable collision between nature and technology when commanded by a dominant point of view.
Alan Wilson Watts (January 6, 1915-November 16, 1973) was an English writer, speaker, and self-styled "philosophical entertainer", known for interpreting and popularizing Buddhist, Taoist, and Hindu philosophy for a Western audience.
You can't transform yourself, you can't make yourself sane, you can't make yourself loving, you can't make yourself unselfish. And yet it's absolutely necessary that we be that way if we are going to hand over the direction of nature to nature, which is what it comes to. It's absolutely necessary that we let go of ourselves, our ego. You can't do it by doing it, acting, willing, or accepting, you can't do it, why?
Alan Watts discusses the meaning of life and human existence, history, the past and the future. Humans have a very simple kind of mind, they keep things in simple crude order and understanding, and they cannot understand the wiggly natural nature of the environment and our bodies and minds. Giving an example of Euclid having a weakling intellect. Recent conference with the best minds, scientists, statesmen, religious leaders, to help our planet. They didn't know what could be done. They decided the best thing they could do is leave Earth alone and let it get back to homeostasis. But, how are we going to do that? The problem is we can't stop. "When the wrong man uses the right means, the right means work in the wrong way." We need to ultimately let go of our egos.
