Books that have been most influential on you
-
I am curious, what books have been the most influential on you concerning magick?
I have a variety of books, I am always reading and learning. I have been familiar with Magick for a few years now but only a serious neophyte for about a year and i feel like i have learned quiet a bit.
my first book was
Modern Magick by Dondald Michael kraig
it was a good start as someone very unaware and new.
here are a list of some of the books that have been important to me. I would love to have open discussion on any of them.. not all of them directly concern magick, but they are related in one way or another.
-Liber Null & Psychonaut: An Introduction to Chaos Magic by Peter J. Carroll
-Magick: Book 4, Liber Aba (Magick Bk. 4) (Bk.4) by Aleister Crowley
-Prometheus Rising by Robert Anton Wilson
-Book of Lies: The Disinformation Guide to Magick and the Occult by Richard Metzger and Grant Morrison
-NLP: The New Technology of Achievement by NLP Comprehensive, Steve Andreas, and Charles Faulkner
-The Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot
-cosmic Trigger I : Final Secret of the Illuminati by Robert Anton Wilsoni just picked up these books which I am reading now
-The Magick of Thelema: A Handbook of the Rituals of Aleister Crowley by Lon Milo DuQuette
-Mystical Qabalah by Dion Fortunei have also read other random .pdf documents and ebooks floating around out there
Overall Prometheus Rising is probably the single most important book for me on that list because it really helped to decondition myself. It was a real eye opener and catalyst for my growth, and I can always rely on "maybe logic" which this book really introduced me to.
Then again when i start thinking about Book 4... maybe that is just as important to me as Prometheus.
First off, let me say "hi" to everyone.
Mystical Quaballa
Tree of Life
ABA
Kybalion
Transcendental MagicLately I have been immersed into the Carlos Castaneda's, don Juan books. I am finding much value there now.

I read his first book a few times this summer, as a supplement to my experimentations. I find his naivete strickingly familiar: how many a young soul has entered realms so far beyond there ken, and emerged transformed? It's an interesting archetype: the initiation of a "normal" soul into the wierd realm of psychedelic madness.
I find it of note that he took potentially fatal doses of Jimson Weed. It's no wonder he ended up with a psychic schism. I think his attitude towards psychedelics could use a bit more Scientific Illuminism, and less "Because."
As far as the massive doses of datura as a road to enlightenment: I'd rather stick to methods with a wee bit more...predictability.

"Definitely!
I have really think there is some thing to his descriptions of things-I find a lot of hints and occult parallels, but from a different perspective and tradition, which I think is beneficial. For example, the descriptions of the nagual and tonal in "The Fire Withing" and "Tales of Power" correspond with some Qabalistic theories, and even some Thelemic theories with regard to the infinite and unkowable, yet ever present. It is not overt, by any means, and could probably be interpreted many different ways, but I think that is a good thing.
My attitude toward drugs as a spiritual and psychological tool has changed a lot, from the argument that it's all bad or all good, to one of balanced respect, pretty much like any other potent tool- it must be respected, but also, *perhaps *a very necessary part of the path.
I have been very frustrated with the situation here in AZ and in the USA in general. I don't trust street stuff anymore: I had some really bad experiences and I cut myself off from all the people I knew involved in that scene, and so I am pretty much NOT high, but very dry. And it would be nice, for a change....

I found a great deal of correspondences between the two approaches as well. Though, at times, Castaneda strikes me as a buffoon, I still applaud him for his documentation of his experiences. It is his documentation, not his analysis, that I value. He failed to understand that it is of paramount danger to "make any difference between one thing and any other,"--especially in the realm of psychedelics. As soon as one thinks "Oh, this is happening to me," the experience is thwarted. In other terms: the more we identify our ego to any perception, the more it diminishes in value.

Ditto. Having visited Arizona, I feel qualified to extend to you my utmost sympathy.
I myself came to much the same conclusions as regards the "drug scene". I restrict my drug use to cannabis these days (cannabis is all but legal here), and psychedelic mushrooms on occasion. It's just impossible to gauge the purity of street drugs these days.
On the subject of books, I think you might enjoy "The Peyote Cult," which is a scientific examination of the Peyote Rituals of the Southwest Indians. I found it an excellent supplement to my experimentations.

Thanks! I was going to ask that question from the other related post!
BTW, if your ever in AZ, feel free to look me up!

"American comics were very influential on me as a child, and I still retain something of their sunny spirit and wild, liberal imagination."
Amen.
and the Childcraft books... the olde ones, published back in the 1950's
(what do kids these days know of fairies and gnomes?...)Bradford Angiers "How to Live in the Woods" was quite the inspiration. I spent many week-long and longer backpacking trips in the mountains and books like that really got me going.
Tolkien
...and then I grew up....

Tolkien, was influential on me too, The hobbit was the first full length novel i ever read when i was six years old [and i think it may have had deep subconscious effects on me] i voraciously read "sword & sorcerer' books as a youth including the whole Narnia series by the time i was twelve
MVT[median vision theory] by Steve Nichols was very important in my understanding of consciousness and hence Magick.

If only someone had introduced the Narnia Chronicles to me earlier... maybe elementary school ?...I might have seen something in them. But after Tolkien ... they didn't even hold a candle...
A friend saw that I was reading Lord of the Rings and forced me to stop midstream when he discovered I had not read The Hobbit already. He insisted I read that one first.
...?!... I was reluctant, but relented, and was glad I did.ahhh, good times....
