1. Legal Highs: A Concise Encyclopedia of Legal Herbs and Chemicals with Psychoactive Properties - Adam Gottlieb 1973
The materials discussed in this book are legal despite the fact
that they have psychotropic properties. Some are far more potent than
many controlled substances. They have not been designated as illegal
by any state or federal codes, because they are relatively obscure and
have never been subjected to abuse. Although chemicals such as
mescaline and lysergic acid amide are controlled by Title 21 of the
United States Code (1970 edition), their plant sources (except for
ergot and peyote) are not so controlled. It is therefore legal to
possess San Pedro cactus, morning glory seeds, Hawaiian wood rose,
etc., as long as there is no indication that they are intended for
other than normal horticultural or ornamental purposes. The materials
listed here are legal at the time of this writing. They may be
outlawed at any future date. It may be of some interest to some
readers that the Church of the Tree of Life has declared as its
religious sacraments most saubstances in this book. Because these
substances were legal at the time of the Church's inception and
incorporation, their use cannot be denied to members through any
future legislation without directly violating the Constitution's
guarantee of religious freedom.
Although there exist both state and federal laws against Psilocybe
mushrooms and peyote, we have included these in our book of legal
highs. We do so because of the glaring weaknesses in the legislation
regarding these. Peyote is allowed to members of the Native American
Church, because it was in use by the Plains Americans as a religious
sacrament long before the caucasian immigrants and their progeny
devised laws against it. Even today, a number of legitimate cactus
nurseries still ship cuttings and seeds of this cactus to all parts of
the country with apparent impunity.
Many species of psilocybin?bearing mushroom grow wild throughout
most parts of the United States, and can in no way be controlled.
Since the original publication of this book, there has been a virtual
mushroom revolution. Head shops and mail order houses now sell
complete kits for home cultivation of Psilocybe cubensis (spores
included). The flagrant ignorance of the law?makers is reflected in
the fact that in Title 21 the alkaloid psilocin is misspelled as
psilocyn. This small error is a product of the same mentality that
classified cocaine as a narcotic in the 1922 Amendment to the Narcotic
Drugs Import and Export Act and deliberately retains the error to this
day.
The purpose of this book is to provide the user with concise
reference information on various legal psychotropic materials. These
include plant materials in their crude hebal form, and chemicals
either synthesized or extracted from natural minerals. For each item
there is a brief description of the material, the method of
preparation, dosage and use, analysis of active constituents, effects,
contraindications (side effects, dangers, etc.), and names of
commercial suppliers. The latter are given as letter codes. The
corresponding names and addresses are to be found in the section
titled "Suppliers." Because of increasing interest in horticulture of
psychotropic plants, sources of seeds and live plants are also given.
Some of the materials discussed are very dangerous and are
strongly disrecommended. They are included because many people have
already shown an interest in experimenting with them. We feel that it
is important to discuss them while clearing indicating their dangers.
Although we feel confident in the accuracy of the information in
this guide, we can in no way assume responsibility for the experiences
of persons following these data for personal drug use.
This book is intended as a contribution to the world of
information and general knowledge. It must not be construed as
encouragement or endorsement, by the author or publisher, of the use of any of the materials herein described.
2. Peyote and other Psychoactive Cacti - Adam Gottlieb 1977
For many years most of us have been aware of the psychoactive effects of Peyote. More recently in
drug?oriented literature there have been numerous references to other cacti believed to have
hallucinogenic properties. Among these are Do?ana from northern Mexico, San Pedro from the
Andes, three related mescaline?bearing species from South America, and at least 15 species used
by the Indians of Central Mexico as Peyote substitutes. Botanists and Chemists are now studying
the constitutes of these cacti and are making some remarkable discoveries. In this guide we will
consider each of these cacti and bring the reader up to date on what scientists have learn ed about
them. The various methods of using these cacti are also discussed. Directions are given for
cultivating cacti and increasing the yield of mescaline and other alkaloids. There are instructions for
extracting mescaline from Peyote and San Pedro, and mixed alkaloids from Do?ana and other cacti.
We also include a brief discussion of the legal aspects of these hallucinogenic cacti and give the
names and addresses of legitimate suppliers from whom these plants can be obtained at
reasonable prices.
3. THE PSILOCYBIN PRODUCERS GUIDE: How to produce 5000 doses of organic psilocybin in a small room every week - Adam Gottlieb 1976
The method for making a spore print is as follows. A mushroom with its cap fully opened and its gills exposed is selected. With a sharp, sterilized blade the stem is cut off as close to the gills as possible. The cap is place gills down on a clean, white sheet of paper; on a sheet of glass that has just been swabbed with alcohol; or on two or four sterilized microscopic slide glasses. The cap is covered with a clean, inverted bowl or bell jar for 24 hours to prevent drying of the cap and introduction of foreign organisms. If a good spore print has not formed after this time, the cap is tapped lightly with the flat side of a knife or spatula. This should shake loose many spores. If the print is made on glass, it is covered with another glass sheet immediately after removing the cap in order to prevent contamination. If microscopic slides are used, two slides are placed face to face and the edges are sealed with tape. If paper is used, it is folded several times so that the print is well inside.
4. Magic Mushrooms: A scientific Journey Across Cultures & Time - JOCHEN GARTZ
Nobody knows precisely when the first magic
mushroom emerged from the shadows of
prehistory to enter the light of consciousness.
Nobody knows when the first magic mushroom
was eaten by a human being. Nobody knows
just who the first magic mushroom eater was. In
seeking answers to these questions, we can only
speculate. Mycophobes, however, are quick to
voice their conviction that only a fool would be
reckless enough to want to attain a higher state
of consciousness beyond the boundaries of
everyday reality. And only a fool would attempt
to do this by ingesting those odd little things that
mysteriously thrive on decaying, humid soil,
rotten wood and malodorous mounds of cow
manure.
Historically, magic, mushrooms have
been feared and hated` since antiquity: magic
mushrooms were thought to be made from
poisons that had dripped from serpents' fangs;
they were considered to be unclean emissions of
evil spirits; moreover, mushrooms were a known
cause of death and disease, bloated stomachs and
insanity. Beliefs such as these have survived to
the present day. They persist, for example,
figures of speech, such as the slick Austrian
description of a societal misfit as someone "who
ate those madness-inducing mushrooms."
But, there is another, very different,
magic mushroom legacy as well.

6. Principia Discordia, Or, How I Found Goddess and What I Did to Her When I Found Her: The Magnum Opiate of Malaclypse the Younger - Robert Anton Wilson & Malaclypse & Kerry W. Thornley 1980
Looking to expand your mind? Looking to shrink your perceptions? Hate life? Love it? If you do, buy this book. If not, steal it; you'll learn how to do all these things later. This is my favorite book, and I've read everything. It's short. It's simple to read. It often flies off on tangents and makes no sense. Wonderful.
7. OCCULT PRINCIPLES OF HEALTH AND HEALING - MAX HEINDEL
This compilation of material concerning the health and healing of the human organism as
considered from the occult viewpoint affords those interested in attaining and maintaining health
a treasure chest of valuable information. Max Heindel, a trained clairvoyant and investigator of
the super-physical worlds, devoted much time and effort to ascertaining the real causes of
physical and mental disorders as revealed in the realm of cause, the higher or superphysical
planes, and this volume contains the fruits of his labor. It embodies some of the most priceless
truths in regard to the origin, functions, and proper care of the vehicles of man to be found on the
printed page, and those concerned with the true art of healing will find it an indispensable
addition to their libraries.
Christ admonished His disciples: "Preach the Gospel, and heal the sick." Maintaining health,
when once gained or regained, requires a knowledge of "the Gospel," or laws of God, and it is
therefore in the light of both parts of the command of the Great Teacher that this book is
dedicated to the afflicted of humanity. May the contents of its pages, permeated as they are with
the love and compassionate understanding of the mystic heart of the author, be the means of
bringing new solace and relief to countless aching hearts and suffering bodies, as well as speed
the day for the generation of more perfect human vehicles.

9. Liber 777
THE FOLLOWING is an attempt to systematise alike the data of mysticism and the
results of comparative religion.
The sceptic will applaud our labours, for that the very catholicity of the symbols
denies them any objective validity, since, in so many contradictions, something must
be false; while the mystic will rejoice equally that the self-same catholicity all-
embracing proves that very validity, since after all something must be true.
Fortunately we have learnt to combine these ideas, not in the mutual toleration of sub-
contraries, but in the affirmation of contraries, that transcending of the laws of
intellect which is madness in the ordinary man, genius in the Overman who hath
arrived to strike off more fetters from our understanding. The savage who cannot
conceive of the number six, the orthodox mathematician who cannot conceive of the
fourth dimension, the philosopher who cannot conceive of the Absolute—all these are
one; all must be impregnated with the Divine Essence of the Phallic Yod of
Macroprosopus, and give birth to their idea. True (we may agree with Balzac), the
Absolute recedes; we never grasp it; but in the travelling there is joy. Am I no better
than a staphylococcus because my ideas still crowd in chains?

The three chapters were written down on January11 and February17.
See 77, 3: 26 – “These three, 220, 718, and, lastly,77, shall form the trinity
of scripture at the heart of the Thelemic Vedas. I shall grant thee no more.”

not only in the English — and thy comment upon this the Book of the Law shall b
printed beautifully in red ink and black upon beautiful paper made by hand;…”

11. TECHNIQUES OF MODERN SHAMANISM VOL.1 2 & 3 - PHIL HINE
This book is a collection of practical exercises, the aim of which is
to enhance awareness of the world around us. The first part of this
book deals with basic sensory exercises, while the second half deals
with trance states, and some of the basic group dynamics involved
in helping other people into them. Using these techniques will not
make you a ‘shaman/shamanka’, but they are drawing on the
shamanic outlook - which depends from an enhanced awareness of
our environment, and the ability to mediate between the everyday,
and the sacred aspects of our experience. “Walking between the
Worlds” requires that we learn to extend our perceptions from the
ordinary, to see the extra-ordinary which lies within it. Many of the
techniques require group exploration, since it is impossible to grow
in total isolation from others.
