24.08.1997 - Interpretation of dali48

On this last evening of his life, Alan Watts was playing balloons - He said the weightless, floating feeling was like leaving his body - In the night he entered a new journey of the mind, and was riding and laughing on the wind with pleasure - Watts saw that the modern man of technology, by the attempt to achieve absolute control over nature (from which he saw himself separated, see alienation from nature and the "Gods" etc. - d.48), and all benefits of human society, had fallen into a trap, and had enslaved himself! - Each check causes another one until the "controller" is caught in the net! - Alan liked to refer to Lao-tzu's advice for the emperors: "A large country is to be governed - as you fry a small fish - little" ...
The current flows not only downwards - the water, any moisture rises from the earth, from the rivers, from the sea into the air as an "inhale" - and then comes the "exhale" when the moisture as dew, as rain again comes downwards ... (A. Watts)
