Are You In Denial?

Welcome to Perilous World Radio, I’m your host, David Masters. Today, let's talk about denial. At some level, we've all been programmed and integrated that programming into our beliefs and social support. This conditioning is constant; even those we trust are influenced by it. Philosopher Alan Watts raises a thought-provoking question: who is it that’s talking in your head? Most of us listen to our internal monologue without questioning its source, assuming it’s us. But are we truly creating these thoughts, or are they just arising like clouds in the sky? If that voice is 'you,' then who is listening? This paradox invites us to explore the nature of consciousness. As you listen to these words, notice the voice in your head that follows along. You can’t predict exactly what it will say next, much like reading a novel where knowing every word would ruin the experience. Let's delve deeper into this fascinating puzzle together.
