Still the Mind: An Introduction to Meditation - Softcover
Mark Watts compiled this book from his father’s extensive journals and audiotapes of famous lectures he delivered across the country. In three parts, Alan Watts -- the author of The Way of Zen and The Joyous Cosmology -- explains the basic philosophy of meditation, how individuals can practice a variety of meditations, and how inner wisdom grows naturally.

From AudioFile:
Meditation guru Alan Watts was recorded in the 1970s giving talks on emptying the mind of worry, stress, and guilt. With eloquent yet spontaneous, practical language, the author says real living is possible when we attend to the moments between thoughts, the moments we usually fill with clutter. This emotional busyness stems from the illusion that we have important responsibilities--that things will fall apart without our constant attention. By accepting a more humble place in the universe, we become more fully interactive with the energy of the universe and become a more effective channel for what it wants us to do. Watts's work is a marvelous and historically significant chapter in the development of American Buddhism and the meditative life.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. During the last decade of his life Alan Watts lectured extensively, giving talks at universities and conferences on the relevance of Eastern thought in contemporary culture. Mark Watts, Alan Watts' son, has done a masterful editing job, drawing from numerous journals and more than 800 hours of audio tapes that Alan Watts left behind. The result is one of his finest works, sounding as fresh and meaningful as if it were written yesterday. Alan Watts travelled worldwide, lecturing extensively on the relevance of Eastern thought in contemporary culture. This book is based on his Zen lectures and upon the recordings of his public meditations and rituals performed during his later life.
