The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead
Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner & Richard Alpert
First edition, first printing of this psychedelic cornerstone, written by three titans of the movement. Similar to the Tibetan Book of the Dead, this work is intended as a guide on how to properly handle the experience of ego death while undergoing psychedelic induced mystical and religious states of consciousness.
