Alan Watts on Carl Jung (1961)

In 1958, Alan Watts traveled through Europe with his father and met among others the Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung. Three years later Carl Jung passed away and Alan Watts recorded this lecture on Jung; how he was as a person and how he influenced Watts.

Alan Wilson Watts (6 January 1915 – 16 November 1973) was a British writer and speaker known for interpreting and popularising Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism for a Western audience. Born in Chislehurst, England, he moved to the United States in 1938 and began Zen training in New York. He received a master's degree in theology from Seabury-Western Theological Seminary and became an Episcopal priest in 1945. He left the ministry in 1950 and moved to California, where he joined the faculty of the American Academy of Asian Studies.
