Here, Watts offers clear delineations of Taoist, Buddhist, and Hindu teachings about what it means to be human; insights into the hidden order behind the apparent chaos of the universe; what nature can teach us about how to live our lives; and much more. Perhaps more than anyone else this century, Alan Watts is credited with helping the modern West gain access to the spiritual traditions of the Far East. Now, join this renowned scholar and beloved spiritual entertainer at his best, offering his listeners a rich and completely unpredictable investigation into our place in the cosmos and our great common task at once formidable and effortless: Learning the Human Game.

These audio cd's were great. There was three audio cd's and the running time totalled to 2 1/2 hours long. In these lectures, Alan Watts sound's very relaxed and playful. These audio tapes are now one of my favorites from him!
