Quote:One thing I do not want to do (since I have seen it so often when I was a chaplain) is to pretend to be more advanced spiritually than I really am. This seems to be common in religious and spiritual groups.
I cannot stand that "acting pious and righteous" business... but that's me. That's why I adore Alan Watts so much, because he was so real. You should try and get some of his lectures, especially the Out of Your Mind series. He was funny, witty, naughty, and just a breath of fresh air.
He's usually my biggest reminder to just chill and have fun, it's all a game. Spirituality without humour is no spirituality at all, that's people fooling themselves.
