Description
Amazon.com After D.T. Suzuki, Alan Watts stands as the godfather of Zen
in America. Often taken to task for inspiring the flimsy spontaneity of
Beat Zen, Watts had an undeniably keen understanding of his subject.
Nowhere is this more evident than in his 1957 classic The Way of Zen,
which has been reissued. Watts takes the reader back to the
philosophical foundations of Zen in the conceptual world of Hinduism,
follows Buddhism's course through the development of the early Mahayana
school, the birth of Zen from Buddhism's marriage with Chinese Taoism,
and on to Zen's unique expression in Japanese art and life. As a
Westerner, Watts anticipates the stumbling blocks encountered with such
concepts as emptiness and no-mind, then illustrates with flawlessly apt
examples. Many popular books have been written on Zen since Watts' time,
but few have been able to muster the rare combination of erudition and
clarity that have kept The Way of Zen in readers' hands decade after
decade. --Brian Bruya Read more Alan W. Watts, who held both a
masterâ€s degree in theology and a doctorate of divinity, is best
remembered as an interpreter of Zen Buddhism in particular, and of
Indian and Chinese philosophy in general. Standing apart, however, from
sectarian membership, he has earned the reputation of being one of the
most original and “unrutted― philosophers of the twentieth century.
Watts was the author of some twenty books on the philosophy and
psychology of religion that have been published in many languages
throughout the world, including the bestselling The Way of Zen. An
avid lecturer, Watts appeared regularly on the radio and hosted the
popular television series, Eastern Wisdom and Modern Life,in the 1960s.
He died in 1973. Read more
