ATMAN: an Alan Watts cosmic film about the self with no smaller container
ATMAN is Song 15 in Out of Your Mind, and the most reverent. Atman is the self in the vastest possible sense, not the small self in a bag of skin but the Self with no smaller container: behind the self you call you is another self, and behind that another, nested all the way down. Your breath is the galaxy turning. A grand Tallis choir that modulates up forever by rising thirds, a matryoshka of nested bunny selves over a turning galaxy, and a cosmos that turns out to hold a figure made of stars. CC BY 4.0.
