Do You Do It or Does It Do You? How to Let the Universe Meditate You Alan Watts Books

Anyone who's read the work of Alan Watts will know that his message remains timely & timeless, asking us to pause, reflect, and consider what our lives really are -- who & what WE really are -- and how much of what we take for granted as "real" is no more than an agreed-upon illusion into which we were born. It's an ancient philosophy, present in more than one culture; but it has never been so joyfully & entertainingly presented than by Watts. His prose is supple, witty, accessible -- but hearing him speak simply amplifies those qualities, brings depth of personality in the ideas & words. Quite simply, he's one of those people you could happily listen to for hours, no matter what he might be talking about ... and as it happens, what he's talking about will make you stop the non-stop forward rush of everyday life for a time, make you look at it from the outside & see how much of it is essentially ridiculous & even damaging. The real questions he's asking are: What is the meaning of YOUR life? What are you doing with this precious & fleeting sliver of time & existence that's yours? When your life is over & you look back on it, what do what it to have been -- something you chose, or something that was chosen for you? All of this in that wonderful voice, drawing you in, making you feel utterly & completely at ease -- most highly recommended!

Do You Do It or Does It Do You? How to Let the Universe Meditate You Alan Watts Books Reviews

I love listening to this. I keep it my car and delve into it when NPR is getting to be too much and music isn't what I'm looking for. I think I'll be getting more of his books on CD. It's great to hear his beautiful voice.
Nothing too enlightening but some beneficial reminders.
How can one not feel calmed, inspired, joyful, intrigued and satisfied from listening to one of the greatest spiritual entertainers of our time. As ever, Alan Watts remains for me as perhaps the most useful spiritual and philosophical conveyers of information and knowledge I have ever had the great fortune to come across. Its not just the knowledge that makes it great, its the humanity and style of Alan Watts that lifts his work and gives it penetrating power for me. Maybe I am biased, maybe I am not as educated as many who may read this, but I have long pondered the mystery of life and I don't know of anyone who is as honest and direct and gentle as Alan Watts in my opinion. I love listening to him.
These CDs are amazing! I love them SO much!
The author gives you so much and can really show eastern spirituality from a western perspective.
Alan Watts was a non snobbish, intellectual giant, with a playful, humble way of delivering difficult 'non tangible' philosophical concepts. He's entertaining, fun to listen to and he will definitely take you on a journey. He might even wake you up to do so, if you're lucky.
Having read Alan Watts decades ago, I was familiar with his work, but had forgotten just how brilliant and inspiring his writings are. One of the true (and vastly under-appreciated) stars of 20th Century philosophy, Watts' spoken essays are simply astounding.

His voice is clear and soothing, with a soft British accent. His ideas are powerful and incredibly lucid. He strings together profound ideas gleaned from Buddhist and Hindu thought, weaving them into poetic braids of enlightenment and inspiration. Lest you worry these will be enigmatic zen-type teachings, rest assured they are conversational in tone and accessible to everyone. It's like listening to a favorite professor espousing lessons that are at once simple yet monumental.

This is a perfect audio backdrop for meditative or shamanistic exploration, or for anyone wishing to reconnect with the power and glory of the universe. They're relaxing, and profound enough to be listenable over and over, reinforcing the positive mindset they generate. Unlike some modern philosophers and self-help gurus, Watts never stoops to maudlin reminiscing or cheesy pop philosophy.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that it's a four-disk set when it arrived. Each disk is worth the price of the set. Watts' beautiful and elegant words come to life, even more impressive and inspirational than they are in written form... which is saying a lot.
I love Alan Watts and his very homey way of describing the most intricate aspects of Buddhism. It's so logical. And entertaining. His voice alone is soothing and enveloping. I've only listened to the first 2 hours of this recording so far. I like to take these tapes on long International airplane flights. They mellow me out and allow me to drift off to sleep. But then I have to relisten to catch up with his thought process. Still, he is an enlightened and learned person with a lot of insight to share. And a great sense of humor.
