About this listen
Life is the ultimate game of hide and seek... and the good news is that you're it! With the combination of playful irreverence and penetrating insight that made him a legend in Western philosophy, Alan Watts investigates the surprisingly liberating concept of "the universe as play" found at the heart of Hinduism, Zen, and other wisdom traditions.
Carefully selected by his son and archivist Mark Watts, You're It: On Hiding, Seeking, and Being Found features more than 10 hours of newly restored historic talks from the "spiritual entertainer" who helped define Eastern thought to audiences in the West. Here is a rare chance for listeners to experience the enduring brilliance of one of the greatest spiritual voices of the 20th century.

Probably the greatest genius ive ever listened to.
There's something about Alan Watts that defy description. I can't listen to him without being continuously floored by the depth of time, thought, and energy he's put into his ideas and philosophy.
A truly transcendental book. I've listened 5 times through now, and it continues to be relevant. So glad this collection was published!

Alan Watts is wow
Alan Watts discusses spiritual and esoteric ideas in the most poetic, humorous and pragmatic of ways. Whether you consider yourself religious, spiritual or not, I can’t recommend him enough.

A Great Book of Insights
This audiobook articulates and questions core assumptions we make about existence. Ideas we take for granted as being ideas, symbols we mistake for the real thing and so on are challenged.
If you believe that you are separate and independent from the world around you, this book questions that core belief repeatedly, ultimately arguing that you aren't as you believe yourself to be.
The audiobook is a collection of lectures from Alan Watts and as a result repeats itself a lot, but culminates in a new conclusion every chapter.
If this summary is appealing to you, and you don't mind a British accent, then you will enjoy this audiobook.

Fantastic!
I could not stop listening to this book. I have been dabbling in the 3 principles and this book, while not about the 3 principles, really helped me understand it much better!
