Alan Watts was born on this day in 1915. A prolific scholar and dazzling stylist, Watts is best known as the chief popularizer of Asian philosophy for the Beat and Hippy movements, but he was also an original thinker in his own right and a quiet man of the Right. In commemoration of his birth, I wish to draw your attention to these works at Counter-Currents:
- Martin Aurelio, “The Wisdom of the East [2]?”
- Greg Johnson, “Alan Watts at 100 [3]” (Spanish [4] translation)
- Greg Johnson, “The Spiritual Materialism of Alan Watts: A Review of Does It Matter? [5]” (French [6] translation)
