Abstract | The book features a unique selection of writings by the leading exponent of Zen thought in the US late Alan Watts. Each chapter consists of edited transcripts of talks given by Watts and represents the first major fully illustrated volume of his work. Some of the selections are from a series of talks given in New York shortly after he wrote The Way of Zen and were only recently discovered by his son,Mark. They have never previously been published in any form; other selections appear here for the first time in print.
Embark on a personal exploration of Zen spirituality,guided by the late Alan Watts--a foremost interpreter of Eastern thought for the modern West. Comprised of Watts' acclaimed (and never before published) radio transcripts, this remarkable volume offers unique insights that clarify Zen's essence. With wit and lucidity,he discusses the nature of the self and the mystery of existence,presenting Zen both from his standpoint as a scholar with a deep understanding of Judeo-Christian traditions and as a Westerner who found meaning in Buddhism. |
