Brain Damage.

I am going to go with 'spiritual maturity' because you are on my 'cool members' list.

I used to have a link that said some shit about Ice.  Now that he's dead, I wouldn't dare do the classless thing and say it even though it's pretty shockingly true.  But now, no, only a punk would bring it up.  Let it die with him.

:ass:

You live closer to Icey than I do.

It is too warm here in Vegas for snowmen.

I'm pretty sure he stated that he was an entertainer of ideas, no more no less.

I love listening to Alan's talks and reading his books, he was able to express something that I felt but couldn't quite put a finger on.

Yes, that's all ANY spiritual teacher or preacher is - an entertainer. Think about it.  At best, a teacher, like Socrates, practices spiritual midwifery, assisting others to give birth to that which already exists within us. His pupil, Plato, spoke about anamnesis, remembering that which we have forgotten. I don't think that meant 'former lives,' or the very secrets of the universe, but it very well could mean recollection of our true nature. Alan Watts has always elicited moments of such recollection from me.
