The Two Hands of God by Alan Watts - Book Review
British born philosopher, author and speaker, Alan Watts, has made a big impact on our world here at frequencyRiser. We are constantly amazed by his ability to convey deeper truths and clarify multiple layers of meaning in the realm of spirituality and Eastern philosophy. When we heard about his re-released title of The Two Hands of God (originally published in 1963), we were very excited to read this gem that had eluded us all these years. We then found out that Watts, when writing this book was friends with another of our favorite authors, famed mythologist Joseph Campbell, which piqued our interest even further. Campbell lent his expertise by sharing notes and feedback on several chapters.
This is "Alan Watts's forgotten book on world mythology -- myths of light and darkness, good and evil, and the mystical unity that sees the transcendent whole behind apparent opposites."
