Publisher's Summary
Alan Watts discusses the fundamental attitudes that run through all religions or "ways of liberation," as the Far Eastern disciplines might better be described.
By following these practices to the extremes of repentance, rebellion, and resignation, one may be freed from the endless cycles of reincarnation which perpetuate the human condition.

Alan Watts is just the best at explaining reality.
Loved it. I never get bored when I am listening to Alan Watts. I have listened to many who say that these ideas cannot be put into words because words are not available to make it clear, but Watts is capable of crafting the explanation. He makes it clear and easy to comprehend. If you have never heard him speak you are in for an enlightening experience.

A true understanding of religion
Alan is a pleasure to listen to even if he was reading a dictionary. Regarding this specific work, he manages to expose the core of the main religious approaches to life and their fundamental conflicts (self contradictions). This work is a must for every student of theology, regardless of his “level of expertise”.

Excellent title with one criticism
This is an excellent title by Alan Watts. It is among one of my favorite of his lecture series. Watts speech can be of help in a person that is looking for spiritual awakening, as he does an excellent job of constructing a coherent explanation for deep topics. My only criticism of this work is that the chapter titles run at about 45 minutes a piece, which makes it harder to get to a stopping point when streaming.

Just wonderful!
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Alan Watts share his thoughts in this delightful talk. Our paths crossed briefly in the early 70s in Big Sur, California. And I felt as though I was being transported back to that time as I listened. I’m so glad his talk was made available on Audible.

For everyone.
I think this has something everyone can take from it, even if you were determined to not agree.

A great book
A wonderful book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this book to be relatable and generally intelligent. I further highly recommend this book.

Tied with "Just So" as my favorite lecture! Chapter 4 brings it all together and blew my mind!

Must must hear this.
Head-turning, thought provoking, mind boggling, common sense turned on its head.
Must must hear this even if the sound quality is not perfect.
Will listen over and over again. Outstanding. Wish I had heard this when I was younger.

Brilliant!
Alan Watts manages to express the most profound truths in a uniquely elegant, simple and joyful way - and this set of lectures is probably my favourite of all. Despite his jovial style, the wisdom contained here is extraordinary. I couldn’t recommend this more highly

Another Alan Watts Classic!
Amazing listening, funny, witty, insightful and beautiful. The audio is a little quiet and I'd recommend not listening in urban areas.

Inspirational
an amazing man, a brilliant lecturer.
Alan Watts makes you stop and think in your tracks.
When you realise these lectures were conducted in the 70's, but have just as much if not more relevance today than then.
It proves human nature, unless you look at the past and learn from it, will continue along the same track of destruction both as an individual and a society.
