Softcover. Condition: Neu. "Relaxe e aproveite o fluxo veloz. Não se apegue a nenhuma visão ou revelação. Deixe tudo fluir através de você." Um ensaio pioneiro sobre a expansão da consciência por meio de alucinógenos, baseado no Livro Tibetano dos Mortos. Nos anos 1960, o LSD se transformou em um símbolo dos movimentos de contracultura, que acreditavam na substância como um meio de expansão da consciência. A psicodelia se tornou um marco para cultura pop, influenciando bandas como The Beatles e Pink Floyd. Ainda assim, o uso de alucinógenos permaneceu um tabu monumental. A experiência psicodélica busca fazer uma reavaliação desse consumo como um modo de transformação do comportamento e da personalidade, levando em conta os aspectos positivos e negativos de seu consumo no curto e no longo prazos. Os capítulos fazem uma interpretação do Livro Tibetano dos Mortos, funcionando como um manual de cada fase da imersão psicodélica. O livro foi coescrito pelo ícone da contracultura Timothy Leary, que teve uma experiência avassaladora com psilocibina no México em 1960. Ao retornar para sua posição de professor em Harvard, ele iniciou uma série de experimentos que resultou na publicação de A experiência psicodélica, em conjunto com outros dois psicólogos: Ralph Metzner e Richard Alpert. Ao longo dos anos, a obra se tornou um ponto de partida para quem, de outra forma, mergulharia em uma viagem alucinógena sem qualquer contextualização. A experiência psicodélica foi uma das principais influências para uma geração de jovens que buscava formas de expandir a consciência durante os movimentos de contracultura dos anos 1960. Em um contexto de contestação social e política, o uso de psicodélicos surgiu como uma forma de atingir um estado de paz interior e partir em uma jornada de autoconhecimento. Especialmente entre os músicos que marcaram os anos 1960, a figura de Timothy Leary foi uma inspiração. Sua obra foi base para a música Tomorrow Never Knows (1966) de The Beatles e ele é citado diretamente em uma canção do musical Hair (1967). Ele também é a figura por trás da música Come Together (1969), composta por John Lennon. Em conjunto com Metzner e Alpert, em A experiência psicodélica Leary narrara uma jornada paralela à de morte e renascimento presente no Livro Tibetano dos Mortos, fazendo uma ponte com o budismo tibetano que foi outra grande influência para a contracultura norte-americana. A edição publicada pela primeira vez no Brasil pela Editora Goya conta com capa de Giovanna Cianelli, tradução por Carol Besimon e uma introdução especial por Nathan Fernandes, além de uma diagramação especial com um texto que muda de cores ao longo dos capítulos, proporcionando uma verdadeira experiência psicodélica ao leitor. Um manual para a iluminação Embora A Experiência Psicodélica tenha sido muito influente na segunda metade do século XX e cause debate até hoje, a obra de Metzner, Leary e Alpert é uma releitura de conhecimentos e práticas muito antigas. Sua principal influência é O Livro Tibetano dos Mortos, uma obra sagrada atribuída a um guru do século 8 e retomada no século 14. O texto original é um guia para a iluminação durante o processo da finitude, usando conceitos como a morte e o renascimento simbólico do ego. Esse tema interessava muito os três pesquisadores, que então fazem uma releitura dos princípios fundamentais do texto com um recorte psicodélico. A Experiência Psicodélica é um guia fundamental para quem deseja saber mais sobre a expansão da consciência em suas diversas formas. TIMOTHY LEARY foi escritor, neurocientista e psicólogo, e é considerado um dos maiores ícones da contracultura da década de 1960 por seu estudo aprofundado do uso de psicotrópicos para a expansão da consciência. RALPH METZNER foi professor emérito de psicologia do California Institute for Integral Studies, conhecido por suas décadas de estudo sobre os temas da consciência, uso de psicodélicos, prática de ioga, meditação e xamanismo. RICHARD ALPERT, também conhecido como Ram D.

Rústica. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. A mediados de los años sesenta, una especial vibración recorrió nuestro planeta. La revolución hippie, destrozada por los tentáculos del pulpo capitalista que la vio nacer, supuso un revulsivo que, con el paso del tiempo, adoptó las formas más exóticas, las sutilezas más asombrosas, para sugerir a las personas el gratificante estado de éxtasis, el desarrollo de las dormidas capas de percepción, la generosa paz que deviene en un superior estado de comprensión, ausente el yo, aquietada la mente, situados en el espacio sin límites. Timothy Leary, junto a otros colaboradores, hicieron varios viajes a la India tras constatar que, en sí mismo, el viaje del ácido lisérgico no era la fórmula mágica para volver a todas las personas seres realizados. Estos ensayos sobre El libro tibetano de los muertos, concebidos en la época más inspirada de sus experiencias, son el resultado del contacto con la cultura oriental y la estrecha relación de ésta con los estadios superiores de la mente. AUTOR TIMOTHY LEARY fue uno de los iconos contraculturales más famosos de la década de 1960. Doctor en psicolo. LIBRO.

Leary, Timothy; Metzner, Ralph; Alpert, Richard. THE PSYCHEDELIC EXPERIENCE. A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead (New York: University Books, 1964) FIRST EDITION, SIGNED BY TIMOTHY LEARY, VERY RARE THUS. The authors' statement reflects their interest in how psychedelics can increase awareness and the learning through the experiments they were making at the time. "The drug is only one component of a psychedelic session. Equally important is the mental and spiritual preparation, both before and in the course of taking the drug. The authors find no needed to invent new mental and spiritual materials for this purpose. The great literature of meditation lends itself very well to this use. This particular manual uses for this preparation material from THE TIBETAN BOOK OF THE DEAD. The authors make an important contribution to the interpretation of THE TIBETAN BOOK OF THE DEAD. They show that it is concerned, not with the dead, but with the living. The last section of the manual provides instructions for an actual psychedelic session, under adequate safeguards." Copies of the early works of Leary and Alpert are quite rare, especially signed or inscribed by these early proponents of using psychedelics to enhance awareness and experience.

First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: New. First Edition. One of the more recognizable books on psychedelic drugs from the 1960s, a guide to navigating death of the ego by three of the most well-known early proponents of the use of LSD. The first printing was 10,000 copies and 60,000 hardcovers were eventually sold (Timothy Leary: A Biography by Robert Greenfield, p. 219) "The authors were engaged in a program of experiments with LSD and other psychedelic drugs at Harvard University until sensational national publicity unfairly concentrating on student interest in the drugs, led to the suspension of the experiments. Since then, the authors have continued their work without academic auspices"-from the front cover. "The Psychedelic Experience was taken so seriously by LSD users that when people failed to have the experience described within its covers, they blamed themselves. Somehow they had failed the acid trip."-Greenfield, p. 219. 159 pages. 8-1/4 by 9-1/2 inches. First edition (first printing, with no indication of later printings). A near fine copy in illustrated boards with minor wear to the spine ends; no dust jacket, as issued. This is a remarkable copy from the library of Ronald K. Siegel, a psychopharmacologist at UCLA and a major collector of drug-related books. It is inscribed by Leary, "Presented with deepest love to my mother. Tim 9-64." "On October 17, 1978, Abigail Leary died in Springfield at the age of ninety-two.Although she had once been her son's foremost champion and protector, Abigail had had no real contact with him in more than a decade. In his writings, Tim Leary made no mention of her death. Nor did he attend her funeral."-Greenfiedl biography, p. 532.
