Description
Braden’s The Private Sea: LSD & The Search for God is a seminal “drug book” exploring the intersection of psychedelic experiences, spirituality, and religious consciousness. It examines how LSD was perceived as a potential tool for spiritual exploration during the counterculture era, analyzing its philosophical and psychological implications.
“…a true intellectual pleasure…you certainly penetrated deeply into the roots of the LSD problem and have presented its many-sided aspects and its relationship to present intellectual trends well and with a thorough knowledge of the subject.” — Dr. Albert Hoffmann (Acting director of Sandoz pharmaceutical company and the original synthesizer of LSD)
“Nowhere else can we gain such clear access to the mind-set of the ‘turn on, tune in, and drop out’ cult…and the religious dimension of the psychedelic experience.”
Also this — who doesn’t love a book which opens with the following? — “At a party in Chicago, a young man under the influence of LSD seized a live kitten and ate it.”
