About others' blogs on Watts
Pretty much everyone's blogs that I have read felt pretty much the same way as I did on the subject. It made them even more confused on the topic. Well, I know that it at least made me more confused. The way that it was explained in class, with the elephant, was as good of an explanation as we would have needed. Some people, though, understood what Watts was saying a little bit better than I did. When listening, I just couldn't concentrate on what he was saying. Along with the other students I listened to it numerous times. I agreed with mainly everything that everyone said about Watts and Hinduism. I really liked the quote that Lauren used from Shakespeare. I thought that the quote really fit what Watts was explaining. After reading that quote from her blog I listened to the podcast again. At a point he does mention something about the world being a stage and plays. So she definitely hit the nail on the head with that comparison.

Many other kids referenced Lauren's quote, and I think it helped kids understand it better. It's one reason I had you folks check each other's blogs on this subject. I'm glad she was able to help you.
