RE: User's Chain #7- Human Links, Giving Thanks and Strength to Community
Me and my wife were taking turns reading this outloud as we were falling asleep a few weeks ago https://www.brainpickings.org/2014/01/27/alan-watts-taboo/, the wisdom imparted by that man is invaluable, I will have to torrent The Book now that you reminded me about him, thank you!
I used to have his book 'This is It'-- I liked it so much I gave it away, to share the wisdom, and of course now I want to read it again!
I received a couple books from friends, one of them gave me The Story of B and Ishmael, very captivating and you reminded me to get them again and share them with my wife, she is a prolific reader, has been reading novels since she was 3! Her parents would punish her by taking the books away and/or she would have to watch basketball with her dad!
I downloaded a torrent earlier today with a few of his works, I need to download the rest, I never read any of his books. The one thing that put me on the path for self knowledge was a very powerful work by a professor of physics from Virginia college, Stanley Sabottka
http://www.faculty.virginia.edu/consciousness/ I have no idea how I ran across that but it lead me down a wonderful exploration of what we are.
I'm glad I decided to look again in this comment section, your wife has one year on me for the reading of books, lol! I'm definitely interested in those links as well. I'm so happy you've connected with Paul :)
That looks good, I will look into it, thanks for sharing the link. I'm not familiar with Stanley Sabottka yet.
