A 1971 television recording with Alan Watts walking in the mountains and talking about the limitations of technology and the problem of trying to keep track of an infinite universe with a single tracked mind.

Apart from a book called “Yoga” from Ernest Wood, the writings of Alan Watts were the ones that really helped me understand what was then for me the curious universe of spirituality.
Alan Watts had the peculiar talent of explaining with simple words the obscure and indecipherable intricacies of the place we live in. Just viewing and listening to the above video track should testify of this talent.
I owe a great deal to him. Without all those hours of past reading, acquainting myself with that vision of the universe he so eloquently describes, I’m not sure whether the me of today would be the same!
The first book that ignited my enthusiasm was The Book - On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are”. To convince you that this is a great book, please read this comment found on Amazon.com!
If you liked that video, you may want seeing the follow-up (part 2).
