If anything, Alan Watt impresses me because his lectures do not seem outdated but remain remarkably fresh and salient. I think it’s that very staying power that reveals that wisdom isn’t anchored in pure cultural sophistication (the “progress” of which may be suspect in itself).

How is it that Alan Watts is outdated by “today’s informed standards” ?? We are not any more civilized today than when he was alive. We’re still polluting the atmosphere with our egocentric bullshit. Watts had nothing to do with marketing, he was pure knowledge, and I respect that.

If you like these mp3s you’ll be glad to know that Alan’s son has been releasing many of Alan’s lectures on a weekly basis as a podcast. You don’t need an ipod, just itunes. check it out at http://www.alanwattspodcast.com

The content of Alan Watts’ lectures is somewhat outdated by today’s informed standards. However, Watts’ spirit, kindness compassion and gentle humor continues to inspire. We need more people like today more than ever. And less of market savvy pushers of spiritual information one finds in today’s spiritual “market of ideas. ” In short, more wisdom, and far, FAR less marketing.
