I love reading and learning new things and I would be interested into see what your guys' favorite books are.

Graham Hancock, Manly P. Hall, Terrence and Dennis McKenna, Aldous Huxley, Timothy leary, Rick Strassman, Ede Frecska, Jeremy Narby, slawek wojtowicz, luis Eduardo luna, and of course alexander and ann shulgin. Those are the main authors I'm into that I can name off the top of my head.

Can't wait to see your recommendations!:d
 
"Einstein's Dreams" by Alan Lightman is one of my favorite books! It is several short stories about dreams Einstein may have had. Each story captured my imagination. This is the first book that popped in my head. It really does stick out as my favorite.

I also enjoyed "The Dancing Wu Li Masters" by Gary Zukav. It's a book about the connection between physics and spirituality. It attempts to make a correlation between science and religion. It's interesting.
 
A few unlisted authors and literature I can think of are Wade Davis, Thomas B. Roberts, James Redfield, Dan Simmons, William S. Burroughs, and J.D. Arthur. :thumb_up:
 
The Law of One, The Emerald Tablets, The Kybalion, Sumerian Tablets, The Hermetica, Tibetan book of the dead, Egyptian book of the dead, Bhagavad Gita, Tao Te Ching, and even the Bible are some ancient texts that I'm also into.

Also would love to here your recommendations within this genre :p

I have read all of the above!

Check out the gnostic gospels or the dead sea scrolls if you like these ancient texts.
 
F. Bruce Lamb, "Wizard of the Upper Amazon"
Alan Watts, "The Book"
James Fadiman, "Psychedelic Explorer's Guide"
Friedericke Meckel Fisher, "Therapy with Substance"

...and works of Stanislav Grof
 
Third Circle Theory by Pejman Ghadimi.

This is a personal growth book that really packs an objective punch. It is about this author's perspective upon how an individual walks the road of actualization within the world/society. It's actually quite sobering in terms of pulling oneself out of the bias quicksandery of life. I suggest the read to anyone, even if you find yourself to be in a state of self-peace.
 
I recommend anything by:

·Carl Jung
·Marshall McLuhan
·Alfred north Whitehead
·Richard Evans schultes
·Gordon wasson

Or these titles:
·David Jay Brown - frontiers of psychedelic consciousness
·Daniel Pinchbeck - breaking open the head
·Riane Eisler - the chalice and the blade

There's too many to list...
