The Essential Lectures of Alan Watts

God (1x4)

Air date: Dec 31, 1972

To many of us the image of God as a gray-bearded omnipotent and omnipresent supreme being has become implausible, yet the common sense notions of divine authority surrounding that image persist. Alan Watts examines the basis of mythic images pointing to the Near Eastern roots of the Western concept and contrasts it with two organic and dramatic divine images of the Far East.
