Review by
The most witty of all Oriental mystics translated by the funniest of all American philosophers, who could ask for anything more? Lao Tse and Tim Leary fit together so well I almost believe in reincarnation. -
Robert Anton Wilson
On DNA & The Tao by
Stuart Sovatsky
As a luminous trajectory, starting from Tao wisdom of the 6th Century, BC and landing in the American scene as it enters the 21st Century, Psychedelic Prayers presents us with visions and choices we can no longer ignore. - Laura

 Psychedelic Prayers
First new edition
in 25
years! The only book of Tim's
poetry and meditations. Includes never-before-published photograph of
Tim with Nanette and Ralph Metzner in front of the Taj Mahal in 1965 as
well as drawings
from the original handwritten manuscript and rare early editions.
New introduction by Ralph Metzner, Tim's Harvard colleague who co-authored The Psychedelic Experience and was hanging out with Tim when he wrote these poems. Metzner describes tripping with Tim and Nanette under the full moon at the Taj and other fond memories. Introduction by Rosemary Leary. Tim courted Rosemary by reading her the poems. How could she couldn't resist? Who could! Later they went on the road, reading the poems together to eager audiences. Rosemary tells her story. This is a beautiful keepsake edition. All collectors will want a copy
My objective was to find the seed idea in each Sutra and rewrite it in the lingua franca of psychedelia. |
