Why the name “World as Ecstasy?”

The name comes from a section in Alan Watts’ book Nature, Man and Woman.

In it, Watts explores ecstasy and its connection to sexuality from a Taoist perspective. He critiques the Christian view of sex as sinful and advocates for a more natural, intuitive approach. Pain, he argues, isn’t punishment—it’s a potential catalyst for something deeper. A kind of transcendence. Something bordering on the mystical.

In the BDSM community, we call that “Space.”
