About this listen

In order to come to your senses, Alan Watts often said, you sometimes need to go out of your mind. Perhaps more than any other teacher in the West, this celebrated author, former Anglican priest, and self-described spiritual entertainer was responsible for igniting the passion of countless wisdom seekers to the spiritual and philosophical delights of Asia and India.

Now, with Out of Your Mind: Essential Listening from the Alan Watts Audio Archives, you are invited to immerse yourself in 12 of this legendary thinker's pinnacle teaching sessions about how to break through the limits of the rational mind and begin expanding your awareness and appreciation for the Great Game unfolding all around us.

Whether you're completely new to Alan Watts or familiar with his work, here is a rare opportunity to experience him at his best, improvising brilliantly before a live audience on Out of Your Mind: Essential Listening from the Alan Watts Audio Archives.

Pleasured and privileged to have came across the works of the late Alan Watts. The depth of character and realty of ideas expressed rendered him cemented in eternity in the listening archives of the internet. If you want to feel alive, empowered, awestruck and reassured, this is the audiobook for you. I can't unpack just how spiritually influential this book is in my own words. Do it more justice than I have in this review and listen to it!

Special in essence. Timeless in profundity.

I wish I'd read this earlier in life. For once a perspective-changing book that is 100% compatible with atheism.

I think this lecture series has changed me.

What can I say, just amazing. What the World needs today is another Alan Watts. His views on the universe and our 'Self' is something I'll remember for a long time, maybe an eternity. So beautiful. The lectures contained in this book are now a constant in my life. I've been listening to this on rotation for three months. It's one of those books.

There's nothing.
