Episode 35: Lost and Found and Lost Again
Hello my dear friends. Here’s a big, challenging but loving idea I’ve been working on for awhile. It comes from asking the question – why has this century been so full of disappointment, frustration and conflict, just when the whole world seemed poised on the edge of hope, after decades of constant fear?My answer starts from one idea – we paid a huge price for many crucial lessons in the twentieth century, which for some reason, we still don’t seem ready (or able?) to learn. Alan Watts does indeed show up, as promised, but in a rather impish way, he insisted on a role very different from my original intentions. (Sometimes writers don’t so much control, as supervise).Plus, I have an especially rich treasure trove of referents today see - LargeEssSmallPress.com for linksNON DELUSIONAL HOPE (the simplest distillation of my own personal grail-quest). ;o)Hope you dig it!
