Resumen del Editor

In his definitive introduction to Zen Buddhism, Alan Watts ("the perfect guide for a course correction in life"—Deepak Chopra), explains the principles and practices of this ancient religion.

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,” and in The Way of Zen he gives this gift to listeners everywhere.

“Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Watts had the rare gift of ‘writing beautifully the unwritable.’”—Los Angeles Times

No words required.

A philosophy that stands, walks, and breathes on its own. Good accompaniment to the physical book.

Just fantastic.

I couldn't tell you the prerequisites needed to be prepared, yet if you are, all you need to flip the switch is contained within. Zen came quite unexpectedly, but once it did, it became much more difficult to be anything else, but be.

But, then, I wasn't really looking for it, I just felt like reading a book, and that's just the way it is. Enjoy the journey, friends.

EXCELLENT

This is an excellent book, although at times, some chapters, are difficult to grasp at first.
It certainly requires a second listening for me. I am considering buying the physical book.
What I really like about this recording is that the chapters have a title, so it is easy to go back to a certain part of the book.
I am planning to listen to more books by mr. Alan Watts.
The narrator, mr. Jeremy Stockwell is a pleasure to listen to.
My thanks to all involved, JK

Outstanding

Incredibly insightful, to stoke the beginner’s mind. Required listening for those interested eastern thought, zen but also its origins in Hindu thought. Watts is a master.
