Welcome back for another episode of Nick’s Non-fiction with your host Nick Muniz!

Alan Watts, Way of Zen, is a useful book for everybody. Derived from his mesmerizing lectures, Alan guides readers one step closer towards ”the Way”. Hinduism, Native American myths and the Bible include a lot of tao principles, in their stories. Jesus himself might have been influenced by a Zen philosopher who got off at the wrong airport. “The true practice of zen is no practice.” For those raised Catholic, take a load off and try on this feel good religion.
