I once tried reading Being No One (after I saw the recommendation in Watts’ Blindsight), but I couldn’t get anywhere with it—it seemed way above my level. How are you copying with it?
His book The Ego Tunnel is waaaay better written/more accessible, and has helped a lot with going through Being No One.
I’m also reading the book in a weird order, (chapters 1, 4, 2, 3, 6, 7) and taking notes.
Way above your level in what sense?
I felt I lacked the biology for it, and I wasn’t sure I had the philosophy for it either. I simply couldn’t follow even the overviews.
