This documentary was made by film maker Elda Hartley with her friend Alan Watts, to explain to the Western mind the basic tenets of Zen Buddhism, and to teach meditation techniques. Widely considered the foremost proponent in the West of this form of Buddhism, Watts presents the concepts of emptying the mind and mindfulness in a clear, straightforward manner. He gives step by step instructions on the art of meditation. Particular attention is paid to body posture, breath control, and concentration. This film is vintage Alan Watts. A bonus film is included: "Meditation, The Inward Journey". ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, All Movie Guide
