Mindvalley Stories
Alan Watts

"His teachings have inspired so many of my own and challenged me to refine my world view again and again and again."

Quick summary

Emily celebrates Alan Watts' unique approach as a spiritual teacher who presents diverse wisdom traditions without agenda. His mastery has continuously inspired her own teachings and challenged her to refine her worldview.

My favorite thing about Alan Watts is that he calls himself an entertainer. He is equal parts scholar, preacher, guru, artist and storyteller yet he leads with entertainer. He absolves the listener of any obligation to believe what he believes. He simply articulates the different spiritual lineages with a level of mastery that is unparalleled with no agenda of getting you to change your mind about any of them. His teachings have inspired so many of my own and challenged me to refine my world view again and again and again. I am over the moon excited for Mindvalley to make a comprehensive course with his invaluable teachings
