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.
On DNA & The Tao
A Review of Psychedelic Prayers
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.
Two of my 'oldest' friends:
-
Lao Tse and Timothy,
deep in conversation - speak with one voice.
- Introduction - Ralph Metzner
- Preface - Rosemary Woodruff Leary
- Bibliogtaphic Preface - Michale Horowitz
Psychedelic Prayers
& Other Meditations
Timothy Leary
First new edition in 25
years!
The only book of Tim's poetry
and meditations. Includes never-before-published photograph of Tim with Nanette

-

not found in earlier 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.
