In the early 60s, when we first started to work on this with people like all this Huxley and Gerald heard and many advisors and wise friends, they had brought to our attention many Eastern books as being relevant.

We tried to conceive of the psychedelic experience as a psychological death rebirth experience since my own first experience was such a death experience," he said.
