I love Alan Watts！
Alan Wilson Watts (6 January 1915 – 16 November 1973) was a British writer and speaker known for interpreting and popularising Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism for a Western audience. Born in Chislehurst, England, he moved to the United States in 1938 and began Zen training in New York. He received a master's degree in theologyfrom Seabury-Western Theological Seminary and became an Episcopal priest in 1945. He left the ministry in 1950 and moved to California, where he joined the faculty of the American Academy of Asian Studies.[2]
A man of extensive knowledge and deep insight, he was one of the charismatic leaders of the counter culture of the 60's.

Who am I
Where did I come from
What am I to do here
and where am I going?!
Being able to be grateful to your enemies
Then loneliness will disappear
You will know the truth of the world.
１）Attention is a narrowed perception
It creates a narrow perception of the world
Understand that the world is a culmination of pieces
It's not really a causal relationship
It is actually one thing
２）Everything is working together
It is because we are not conscious of oneness and wholeness
that the ego comes in
We don't understand that everyone else is also ourselves
Once you understand oneness
You understand that you =God
Everything in the world
is you that has returned
So others are also all you!
Everything is one
Light and darkness
Sound and silence
Solids and space
On and off
Appearance and Disappearance
Cause and effect
Everything is one thing.
Even things that are in conflict
Winners and losers
One cannot exist without the other.
Winners need losers to be winners!
If you try to live without desire or fear,
you will realize that your actions in life are based on greed and fear.
You begin to develop a desire
to not be greedy
Trying to be a saint＝Trying to be a better human than others
Ego appears in different forms
It kicks someone down
and disciplines self
Winners need losers
Saints need sinners
The wise need the foolish
How you are
depends on how others are
One thing
A group cannot exist without excluding others
There are others, that is where your self also exists
Groups are the same (we come to know ourself through others)
To exist means to compete
Everything is 0 and 1
Our nerve cells go on and off＝It's vibration
Everything has a ON and OFF
Sound, light and space as well
You do not exist as an individual
Time and space is also one
Having something you want to do or achieve in the future = illusion
Eating something else
Hurting something else
We cannot exist without the other
Don't try to beat the other
Compromise
Live as if it's a game
Don't be too serious
The angel is established by the devil
It is the bad people that
create the position you have now
Justice is winning but there is no winning
The devil is losing but will never lose
Thanks to the enemy
We realize our dependency
Have humor
↓↓↓
Realize that you also have bad parts in you, just as the enemy does
Love and selfishness
Reason and Passion
Spirituality and Sensuality
Mysticism and materialism
Finding that unique balance and not going too far to one side.
Life is a game, enjoy it
Everything is one
You are playing all the parts yourself
Which role will you go on to play?!
