Description:

In this thought-provoking lecture, Alan Watts explores the transformative power of silence and meditation. He challenges us to pause from our daily distractions and experience reality as it truly is, rather than through the filters of constant thought and societal constructs.

Watts delves into various illusions that cloud our perception, such as the materialistic obsession with money, the fear of death, and the relentless pursuit of time.
