In his definitive introduction to Zen Buddhism, Alan Watts explains the principles and practices of this ancient religion to Western readers. With a rare combination of freshness and lucidity, he delves into the origins and history of Zen to explain what it means for the world today with incredible clarity. Watts saw Zen as “one of the most precious gifts of Asia to the world,”

Tallest Western master? Alan Watts!
19:20 they can fall in love and enter into a relationship with the opposite sex? Really, was it necessary to specify?
I am just curious wich part of this statement it was that bothers you?
@@bradthunderpants3283 I would not go as far to say it bothered me. I just thought it seemed unnecessarily specific. The idea that it is fully acknowledged that someone can have such a love for another person that they would want to pledge a commitment to them for life with the caveat that it can only be a relationship with someone of the opposite sex seems to be rather non-zen. What is love for another but an intuition that tells you to form and maintain a strong connection with another person. To me it just seems that the differences between women and men, especially enlightened people, are superficial. To see such a definitive trait in oneself that does not allow you to be with another seems to me like someone putting to much value into aspects of their material self.
Yo, Ankhing to the voice of Alan Watts is like half the appeal. But damn it if I won't try. Lol

It's not click-bate dude. This is a book written by Alan Watts. You might have felt more satisfied if it were narrated by the author?
But give it a chance. I think the narrator did a wonderful job and the message is still clear and beautiful, as with much of Alan's work.
This one closes particularly well I feel.
Foo.
