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

Carefully selected from hundreds of recordings by Alan Watts' son and
archivist, Mark Watts, Out of Your Mind brings you six complete
seminars that capture the true scope of this brilliant teacher in
action. On these superb, digitally restored recordings, you will delve

skin-encapsulated egos separate from the world around us, and how to
transcend that illusion

purpose

Buddhism, Hinduism, and Western philosophy, plus much, much more
