Mind Over Mind

Alan Watts explores how the mind can get in the way of the spirit, and how this plays out to hinder those trying to improve. Watts explains how to "get out of your own way" and relax into the nature of reality. Alan Watts was a comparative religion scholar, who spoke and wrote on topics of spirituality with a focus on Eastern systems of philosophy (especially Zen Buddhism and Taoism). Watts is credited as helping to spread Eastern philosophy throughout the West, beginning in the 1930's.
