This detailed account of the author's experiences with the Mexican cactus known as peyote is a little-known classic of drug literature. It lucidly recounts the experience of personal transformation while describing the necessity of consciously preparing and working on one's self in order to retain control of the mind and not get swept away by the experiences. This book offers a guide to "sailing the inner sea" that reveals how answers to the meaning of life can be found in the richness and unity of the world we experience.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
