Este libro significa una inversión radical del pensamiento ordinario sobre la búsqueda de la seguridad. El autor plantea la pregunta: ¿cómo vivir en un mundo de inseguridad, en un mundo privado del consuelo de las tradicionales creencias religiosas? Y la respuesta la encuentra en la ley de la retrocesión: los seres humanos sufren y perecen debido a los esfuerzos mismos que hacen por no sufrir y por no perecer. I like listening to some of the talks Alan Watts gave during his life. He talks in a gentle and humourous way about religion and philosophy in a way that is really easy to understand. I listened to this as an audiobook hoping for more of the same. Unfortunately this is much more scholarly and dense than his talks tended to be. As a result I found it to be quite impenetrable and hard to get along with. I will continue to watch and listen to his talks but I won't be rushing out to listen to anymore of his books. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Drawing from Eastern philosophy and religion, Watts argues that is only by acknowledging what we do not and cannot know that we can find something truly worth knowing.--From publisher description. No library descriptions found. |
