"If we're honest with ourselves," asserts Alan Watts, "the most fascinating question in the world is clearly 'Who am I?'" In Myself: A Case of Mistaken Identity, you will join one of the West's most celebrated teachers of Eastern thought in pursuit of this eternal riddle of the self. In four archival recordings - captured here at the height of his career as a lecturer and author - Alan Watts explodes some of our most deeply held beliefs about our sense of self and how we perceive the world around us. With striking and often hilarious examples, he demonstrates the profound effect of words and symbols on these so-called "common sense" perceptions. The Wisdom of Alan Watts series offers Watts at his best, bringing one of the century's most lucid and entertaining teachers of Asian philosophy to a new generation of listeners. Talks include: "Myth of Myself," "Man in Nature," "Symbols and Meaning," and "Limits of Language."
