Your Brain is God

Timothy Leary
112 pp $12.95 1-57951-052-3

How the Harvard-Milbrook psychedelic research moved from the scientic to the religious arena after Leary and Alpert came to understand that the US Constitution does not protect scientic exploration. The brain had replaced the gentials as the forbidden organ that must not be touched or turned on by the owners so the only way in which consciousness-change experiences could be discussed was in terms of philosophic-religious. Timothy Leary

Change Your Brain

Timothy Leary
112 pp $12.95 1-57951-017-5

For Timothy Leary, drugs are useful tools to reprogram your brain circuitswhile having a good time in the process. How to Change Your Brain is a compilation of Learys earliest work at Harvard on re-imprinting your brain and the outrage it provoked in stodgy corners of professional and academic psychology. Filled with inside stories and Learys keen observations of hyprocracy which he reveals with his characteristic humorous cynicism.

Start Your Own Religion

Timothy Leary
Preface: Scoop Nisker
1-57951-073-6, 240 pp $14

You and your friends can do anything that the great religions and empires have done in the name of their Gods. You can choose your God to be smart, compassionate, cute and goofy. Create a cult comprised of your family and friends, then develop a personal mythology and write your own New Testament. Religious, mystical visionary possession states are powerful and wonderful. They open the doors of perception, polish our sensory lenses, and shake up the autonomic nervous system.

Busted for pot in 1965, Timothy Leary was sentenced to 25 years in prison. He escaped, and thus began an almost farcical odyssey: the former West Point student and Harvard professor was now an acid-tripping fugitive.
