Alan Watts, in 1970, on the devastating results of confusing mental constructs with living reality.

“We are in very serious danger of destroying the biosphere through pollution, overpopulation, poisoning our food, and lack of food.

We really don’t know what to do.

The human race has to learn to leave the world alone, and let the natural homeostasis, that is the self-balancing process of nature, take care of the mess!

Now how are we going to do that?

We really don’t know how to stop.

We’ve got something started, and we see it’s going in the wrong direction. And there’s something wrong with the way we think. And while that is there, everything we do will be a mess.

Now what is wrong?”

After 44 years, still prescient. Well worth your precious time.
