Alan Watts Synthesis: How to see Life as Lila (God’s Play)

By Kyle Kowalski ·

This Premium post is an Alan Watts synthesis of everything he said about lila, maya, the game of hide-and-seek, and much more.

"This is a drama. I’m not trying to sell you on this idea in the sense of converting you to it; I want you to play with it. I want you to think of its possibilities. I’m not trying to prove it, I’m just putting it forward as a possibility of life to think about." — Alan Watts

About Kyle Kowalski

👋 Hi, I'm Kyle―the human behind Sloww. I'm an ex-marketing executive turned self-education entrepreneur after an existential crisis in 2015. In one sentence: my purpose is synthesizing lifelong learning that catalyzes deeper development. But, I’m not a professor, philosopher, psychologist, sociologist, anthropologist, scientist, mystic, or guru. I’m an interconnector across all those humans and many more—an "independent, inquiring, interdisciplinary integrator" (in other words, it's just me over here, asking questions, crossing disciplines, and making connections). To keep it simple, you can just call me a "synthesizer." Sloww shares the art of living with students of life. Read my story.
