Try the Waking Up app for a complete, organized collection of Watts’s work. I don’t take all of it at face value - some of it certainly hasn’t aged well - but I’ve derived a lot of wisdom from his work. If you’re interested in looking at the world a little differently then the typical western way, it’s worth your time to give his talks a listen.


What parts of his work haven't aged well?


Pretty much everything he wrote on drinking aged poorly when seen in the light of his eventual demise by drinking himself to death.


Probably when he talks about gender.
