Practical
Non-Duality

Even after 50+ years, the works of Alan Watts are still very much alive.

You might be one of the many people who enjoy his lectures, youtube shorts or his books. But do you really get it?

"If you believe you understand what I say, but just can't feel it, then it means you haven't understood what I said" ~ Alan Watts

 

Since 2017, we've been assisting people in turning their understanding of Alan Watts into a felt experience called: Ego Awakening.

We help you use the mind to get past the mind; concepts to get past conceptual thinking. With dialectics, diagrams and whatever it takes to get you past the paradox. 

 

We don't offer a spiritual lifestyle with meditations, mindfulness, yoga, mantras, prayer, a vegetarian diet, etc. This is a yin, or feminine, approach.

​​

While this certainly works for some, it didn't work for Alan Watts. Nor does it work for anyone else with a strong inclination to use the mind. 

 

Using the mind to overcome identification with mind is the yang, or masculine, approach of Alan Watts – an approach without much popular spirituality.

This path entails a temporary change in attitude from the wandering of the ordinary mind into a consistent exploration (and adoption) of all the practical implications of the non-dual philosophy.

 

When you truly do that, ego awakening usually doesn't take very long. The ego will reassert itself, again and again, and you'll wake up, again and again. Until it stabilizes in real life, even when things are challenging.

 

In other words, the objective of the game is to figure out a way to go about life without having to be engaged with any kind of practice any more. But you go on living with a new perspective, a fresh mode of perception and therefore new experiences. 

 

This is what we call: Practical Non-Duality.

“Practices like yoga, meditation, Zen, prayer, or psychedelic ceremonies, all have something to recommend them.

 

But, when practiced in order to get some kind of spiritual illumination or awakening, they strengthen the fallacy that the ego can toss itself away.”
