Alan Watts

But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.

And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on.

And although our bodies are bounded with skin, and we can differentiate between outside and inside, they cannot exist except in a certain kind of natural environment.

The style of God venerated in the church, mosque, or synagogue seems completely different from the style of the natural universe.

In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Technology is destructive only in the hands of people who do not realize that they are one and the same process as the universe.

The difficulty for most of us in the modern world is that the old-fashioned idea of God has become incredible or implausible.

No work or love will flourish out of guilt, fear, or hollowness of heart, just as no valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.

No valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.
