“[Don Lattin] has created a stimulating and thoroughly engrossing read.” —Dennis McNally, author of A Long Strange Trip: The Inside History of the Grateful Dead, and Desolate Angel: Jack Kerouac, the Beat Generation, and America
It is impossible to overstate the cultural significance of the four men described in Don Lattin’s The Harvard Psychedelic Club. Huston Smith, tirelessly working to promote cross-cultural religious and spiritual tolerance. Richard Alpert, a.k.a. Ram Dass, inspiring generations with his mantra, “be here now.” Andrew Weil, undisputed leader of the holistic medicine revolution. And, of course, Timothy Leary, the charismatic, rebellious counter-culture icon and LSD guru. Journalist Don Lattin provides the funny, moving inside story of the “Cambridge Quartet,” who crossed paths with the infamous Harvard Psilocybin Project in the early 60’s, and went on to pioneer the Mind/Body/Spirit movement that would popularize yoga, vegetarianism, and Eastern mysticism in the Western world.

En rigtig god introduktion til 4 unikke personer. Kender man ikke til dem på forhånd, betyder forfatterens kreative friheder intet. Man bør gøre sig selv den tjeneste at læse 'be here now' med Ram Dass, for det er hvad man kalder en øjen åbner.Vi har meget at være taknemmelig for, når det kommer til de her 4. De sørgede for at sætte lys på selvindsigt og samtidig give mindre værdi til den påståede etablerede viden, fra uddannelses stederne. De så lyset i hvor begrænset vi gør tingene og at det udelukkende er os selv, der sætter scenen for vores liv
