{"product_id":"in-my-own-way-9781577315841","title":"In My Own Way","description":"In this new edition of his acclaimed autobiography — long out of print and rare until now — Alan Watts tracks his spiritual and philosophical evolution from a child of religious conservatives in rural England to a freewheeling spiritual teacher who challenged Westerners to defy convention and think for themselves. From early in this intellectual life, Watts shows himself to be a philosophical renegade and wide-ranging autodidact who came to Buddhism through the teachings of Christmas Humphreys and D. T. Suzuki. Told in a nonlinear style, \u003ci\u003eIn My Own Way\u003c\/i\u003e wonderfully combines Watts’ own brand of unconventional philosophy and often hilarious accounts of gurus, celebrities, psychedelic drug experiences, and wry observations of Western culture. A charming foreword written by Watts’ father sets the tone of this warm, funny, and beautifully written story of a compelling figure who encouraged readers to “follow your own weird” — something he always did himself, as his remarkable account of his life shows.","brand":"Alan Watts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48285315399931,"sku":"9781577315841","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_f1bf3e20-4d31-4c9b-a79a-68731ff49928.jpg?v=1771442287","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/in-my-own-way-9781577315841","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
