LearnOutLoud.com Review
Alan Watts was a lucid interpreter of Eastern philosophy for a Western audiences. He wrote many popular books such as
The Way of Zen
and
The Book: On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are
. He was also a prolific lecturer and thankfully many of his talks have been recorded on audio and some on video. In this 1959 KQED television series called Eastern Wisdom & Modern Life, Watts provides an introduction to ideas in Eastern philosophy and religion and how they contrast with ideas in the West. The eleven lectures that you can watch on YouTube feature 30-minute talks along with visual accompaniment. The sound is a little fuzzy on certain lectures but you can still hear what he is saying and it's great to see Watts on video.
