Sex, Drugs & Magick – A Journey Beyond Limits

Sex has many facets – biological sociological, esthetic, psychological, compulsive, ecstatic, tragic, playful, loving, perplexing and (I am told), even on occasion boring – but in this text is considered chiefly in its “”transcendental”” aspect. By this, I mean simply that in orgasm everybody experiences, to some degree, an explosion/implosion of the normal ego and a melting, merging, “”oceanic”” sensation of at-one-ment. There are many types of drugs in the world – antibiotics; anesthetics; analgesics; narcotics; hypnotics; psychedelics; uppers and downers; dreamers and screamers – but here I am concerned with drugs that act centrally upon the higher nervous system and alter ego-definitions and perceived reality-tunnels. That is, drugs that produce “”transcendental”” or transpersonal states. It is obvious that sex and drugs together can lead to more extraordinary and paranormal trans-ego experiences than either sex or drugs alone. This is an ancient Tantric “”secret”” and the present book was, as far as I know, the first ever published in America to discuss it explicitly, without using alchemical or other codes to obscure what was actually being said… – from the author’s 1987 Preface to Sex, Drugs & Magick —- ISBN: 9781734473520 | ISBN10: 1734473525 | ISBN-13: 978-1734473520
