Kína i.e. hatodik századának két szellemóriása: Lao-ce és Konfu-ce. Tanításuk látszólag ellentétes, a mélyben mégis egybeér. Lao-ce a tao (az Út) világrendjébe történő, nem cselekvő beilleszkedést tanítja, míg Konfu-ce azt vallja: a bölcs fáradhatatlanul hirdesse felismert igazságát. A ma uralkodói trezorjaikban és hadseregükben bíznak. Ezért mondja már Platón, hogy ma már csak "demokráciák és önkényuralmak váltogatják egymást". A közép ismerete elveszett.

A szerzú Mindenki másképp egyforma című könyve - és az ez alapján készült hangoskönyvünk is - a racionális gondolkodásról szól, jóllehet ilyesmi talán nem is létezik, hiszen az emberi gondolkodás alapvetően nem racionális. A keleti világszemlélet szerint az emberi lelkeket a nirvánába jutás vezérli. De hogy végül is mi a nirvána, arról megoszlanak a nézetek. Talán ezért is oly gyakran idézett a mondás: "Sok út vezet a nirvánába". A világ bonyolult. Mi emberek pedig sokfélék vagyunk, ugyanakkor elképesztően egyformák is.

Alan Watts examines the problem of humans in a seemingly hostile universe in ways that question the social norms and illusions that bind and constrict modern humans. Marking a groundbreaking synthesis, Watts asserts that the powerful insights of Freud and Jung, which had, indeed, brought psychiatry close to the edge of liberation, could, if melded with the hitherto secret wisdom of the Eastern traditions, free people from their battles with the self.
