I have loved Alan Watts from way back!

Revisado: 11-15-22

The relentless challenge of a book like this is putting something into words that defies words. I don't know of anyone who is a native English speaker that does it better than Alan Watts.

This has some very valuable insights!

I think there is much to be learned here for parents. I like the ideas of helping a child to take ownership of their own lives.

Way to much superstition.

Revisado: 11-02-21

I recommend just reading the cliff notes. This book is overrated. I think he has an interesting core concept. But you can pick it up from a 15 minute summary on the internet.

I loved it!

The world is lucky that Michael Pollan decided to be a writer and not an accountant or engineer. He has really brought a gift to the world with his writting.

Wim Hof is a meditation god.

Revisado: 10-28-21

So many people in the world can't even begin to understand what a deep meditative state is because they identify with thought so much. I believe he has some very useful methods to help people begin to understand the power of an altered state of consciousness. I am going to incorporate some of his methods. He seems to be a meditation god.

This book is my new bible!

Revisado: 09-20-21

I cannot count the number of times I have read this book. Since I lost my faith in god, I have needed something to anchor my morality. Sam Harris provides the most reasonable method of finding a new anchor for morality in the modern age I have found.

This book is one of those that I will need to read over and over to glean all the valuable lessons between it's pages. It's relevance cannot be overstated.

I disagree with his overall thesis.

Revisado: 09-02-21

If the author honestly expects us to agree that corporations are doing better for the world when they pollute rivers in areas where they can get away with it in order to maximize profits but are harming society when they demand that at least one member of a minority group sit on the board of directors, he has really lost his way. The overall thesis is obvious bullshit. To suggest that companies have violated their fiduciary duty when they try to implement corporate ethics is laughable considering all the shit that corporations have done to harm society in the name of pure profit seeking, and he seems to shift his opinion anyway. At one point he says that he doesn't believe that systemic racisms even exists but later in the book backs away from that. He did make some really good points and I agree that extreme left and extreme right positions can be very harmful to society. I also agree that political belief should be a protected belief like religion so anyone can hold any belief they want and not risk their job for strange beliefs. I also loved the idea about mandatory civil service for the youth.
