Alan Wilson Watts was a British philosopher, writer and speaker, who held both a Master's in Theology and a Doctorate of Divinity. Famous for his research on comparative religion, he was best known as an interpreter and popularizer of Asian philosophies for a Western audience. He wrote over 25 books and numerous articles on subjects such as personal identity, the true nature of reality, higher consciousness, the meaning of life, concepts and images of God and the non-material pursuit of happiness. In his books he relates his experience to scientific knowledge and to the teachings of Eastern and Western religion and philosophy.
Esta es una transcripción de una conferencia realizada por Alan Watts. El editor es su hijo y pertenece a las obras póstumas del autor.
Al ser una conferencia, o charla, el lenguaje es ameno. Habla de la vida y las ataduras que nos impiden ser felices. También no da algunas indicaciones para meditar.
Pese a ser solo un libro, muy corto, nos deja un bienestar en el alma.
M’encanta Alan Watts, però aquest llibre no m’ha dit res. En part crec que és degut a que és un recopilatori d’algunes ponències que va fer abans de morir i no una obra escrita per ell com a tal, i també pel fet que la va escriure el seu fill.
