God Has No Beard; She Is Black – by Alan Watts (Shots Of Wisdom 52)

In this talk, Alan Watts questions the idea that God's nature must be strictly defined and suggests an alternative, fluid concept beyond the graven images of traditional religion. He displays how emotional associations often influence our understanding of God more than intellectual ideas and suggests reimagining the divinity in an opposite imagery: a black, feminine entity symbolizing the negative principle. This negativity is reevaluated as life-giving and essential for appreciating positive aspects that are vital for understanding existence.
