An acclaimed philosopher shows us how--in an age of unprecedented anxiety--we can find fulfillment by embracing the present and living more fully in the now. He is "the perfect guide for a course correction in life" (from the Introduction by Deepak Chopra). The brain can only assume its proper behavior when consciousness is doing what it is designed for: not writhing and whirling to get out of present experience, but being effortlessly aware of it. Alan Watts draws on the wisdom of Eastern philosophy and religion in this timeless and classic guide to living a more fulfilling life. His central insight is more relevant now than ever: when we spend all of our time worrying about the future and lamenting the past, we are unable to enjoy the present moment--the only one we are actually able to inhabit. Watts offers the liberating message that true certitude and security come only from understanding that impermanence and insecurity are the essence of our existence. He highlights the futility of endlessly chasing moving goalposts, whether they consist of financial success, stability, or escape from pain, and shows that it is only by acknowledging what we do not know that we can learn anything truly worth knowing. In The Wisdom of Insecurity, Watts explains complex concepts in beautifully simple terms, making this the kind of book you can return to again and again for comfort and insight in challenging times. "Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Watts had the rare gift of 'writing beautifully the unwritable.'" --Los Angeles Times
Watts, Alan
Alan Watts (1915-1973) tornou-se mundialmente conhecido como palestrante e autor-intérprete do Zen-budismo e da filosofia indiana e chinesa. Tendo sido reverendo da Igreja Episcopal na década de 1940, abandonou o cargo para estudar na Academia Americana de Estudos Asiáticos (atual Instituto Californiano de Estudos Integrais). Logo conquistou a reputação de ser um dos mais originais filósofos do século XX, tornando-se autor de mais de 20 livros sobre filosofia e filosofia da religião, publicados em muitas línguas e países. Grande palestrante, Watts era presença frequente nas rádios e televisão nos anos de 1960. Faleceu em 1973, mas seus temas atuais continuam presentes em vídeos e citações de fãs que circulam na internet. |
