An inspirational and profound speech on identity and what you think you are from the late philosopher Alan Watts. Original Audio sourced from: “Alan Watts - 'Myth of Myself'" and “Alan Watts - 'Not What Should Be' from Tao of Philosophy”

"When a man no longer confuses himself with the definition of himself that others have given him, he is at once universal and unique. He is universal by virtue of the inseparability of his organism from the cosmos. He is unique in that he is just this organism and not any stereotype of role, class, or identity assumed for the convenience of social communication."
– Alan Watts. (1915 – 1973)
