Description
The Wisdom of Insecurity A Message for an Age of Anxiety In this thought-provoking book, Alan Watts explores the human search for psychological security, examining our efforts to find spiritual and intellectual certainty in the realms of religion and philosophy. Watts argues that our insecurity stems from trying to be secure, and that salvation and sanity lie in recognizing our own limitations. Watts, a leading expert on Eastern thought, specialises in Zen Buddhism, and his work continues to be in popular demand. This book underlines the importance of our search for stability in an uncertain world, where human life seems particularly vulnerable. Through his insightful analysis, Watts offers a unique perspective on the nature of security and the human condition, making this book a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of the human experience.
