Description
About the Book
"For decades, people have turned to the words of Alan Watts for guidance, support, and spiritual sustenance. In his classic works of philosophy--which helped to interpret and promote Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism to Western readers--Watts tapped into ancient ideas, but presented them in ways that spoke to everyone. Possessed of "the rare gift of 'writing beautifully the unwritable'" (Los Angeles Times), Watts was a master of the pithy turn of phrase, and his writing is marked by an uncanny ability to make complicated ideas and advice accessible: "Problems that remain persistently insoluble should always be suspected as questions asked in the wrong way"; "unless one is able to live fully in the present, the future is a hoax"; "belief clings, but faith lets go." This collection brings together some of his most timeless words of wisdom to reflect upon and to live by, and to read for inspiration, for knowledge, and for growth"--Book Synopsis

Born in England, Watts immigrated to the United States in his twenties. His colorful and controversial life, from his school days in England, to his priesthood in the Anglican Church as chaplain of Northwestern University, to his experimentation with psychedelic drugs, made him an icon of the 1960s counterculture movement.
