ZEN: THE SUPREME EXPERIENCE - The Newly Discovered Scripts
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.
Alan Watts (1915-1973) is recognized as the forefather of all Western Zen teachers and was largely responsible for bringing this wisdom to the West because of his incredible ability to translate the Zen experience and make it comprehensible to Western audiences. Educated as an Anglican priest, he turned to Zen Buddhism to explore his understanding of spirituality, philosophy, and enlightenment. A stimulating and unconventional philosopher and lecturer, he encouraged debate on mainstream religious and cultural values, particularly in his weekly public radio series in the U.S.
