His legacy lives on in The Wisdom of Insecurity, a work that energeticallydisplays Wattsâ€s piercing intellect, razor-sharp wit, and winning grace. For the clarity andwisdom with which it engages timeless concerns crucial to us all, it is unmatched. An importantbook.â€•â€”Greg Mortenson, author of Three Cups of Teaâ€œPerhaps the foremost interpreter ofEastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Watts had the rare gift of â€˜writing beautifully theunwritable.â€â€•â€”Los Angeles Timesâ€œThe wisdom of insecurity is not a way of evasion, butof carrying on wherever we happen to be stationedâ€”carrying on, however, without imagining thatthe burden of the world, or even of the next moment, is ours. It is a philosophy not of nihilism but ofthe reality of the presentâ€”always remembering that to be of the present is to be, and candidlyknow ourselves to be, on the crest of a breaking wave.â€•â€”Philip Wheelwright, Arts and LettersÂâ€œThis book proposes a complete reversal of all ordinary thinking about the present state ofman. The critical condition of the world compels us to face this problem: how is man to live in aworld in which he can never be secure, deprived, as many are, of the consolations of religiousbelief? The author shows that this problem contains its own solutionâ€”that the highest happiness,the supreme spiritual insight and certitude are found only in our awareness that impermanenceand insecurity are inescapable and inseparable from life. Written in a simple and lucid style, it is atimely message.â€•â€”Book Exchange (London) Read more Alan W. Watts, who held both amasterâ€s degree in theology and a doctorate of divinity, is best remembered as an interpreterof Zen Buddhism in particular, and of Indian and Chinese philosophy in general.
