Alan Watts

We suffer from the delusion that the entire universe is held in order by the categories of human thought, fearing that if we do not hold to them with the utmost tenacity, everything will vanish into chaos.

Alan Watts

Western religions are more concerned with behavior, doctrine, and belief than with any transformation of the way in which we are aware of ourselves and our world.

Alan Watts

Alan Watts

When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point.

Alan Watts

When you get free from certain fixed concepts of the way the world is, you find it is far more subtle, and far more miraculous, than you thought it was.

Alan Watts

You are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring itself.

Alan Watts

You are the big bang, the original force of the universe, coming on as whoever you are.
