Spirituality...Be Here Now and Conversations With God probably had the biggest impact on me. Ishmael was another one, although it's not really "spiritual" in the sense of the other two. "The Book" by Alan Watts is also good.
Drugs..Doors of Perception, Food of the Gods. Both good reads.

I haven't read many, but I recently finished "Opium: A History" by Martin Booth. Very informative and gives a good recount of, well, the history of opium and its current place in our society. Jumps back and forth between time alot and lags a bit in the middle, but overall pretty good.

I enjoyed those two as well. Also
The Celestine Prophecy: An Adventure by James Redfield. Content and ideas are good but plot and writing style leave something to be desired.
The Return of Merlin by:Deepak Chopra I would like to read some more of his stuff.
I am now reading
Siddhartha by Herman Hesse So far so good. I think I see where it is going and I would agree... A true seeker cannot accept the teachings of anyone else, he must find the answers in his/her own way/time.
As for drug books, I haven't really gone there except for reading parts of LSD; my problem child.

1) Nothing in This Book Is True, but It's Exactly How Things Are
2) Something in This Book Is True
3) You Are a Spiritual Being Having a Human Experience
-Bob Frissell
All Three of these titles are by Bob Frissell. I have read the first book and part of the second however I have been told by many people the three go great together, which is why I decided I mine as well post the names of all three. The first book touches heavily on human consciousness, evolution, higher forms of life, Merkaba meditation, and also dabbles into some sacred geometry. It gives a pretty decent background on all these topics and kind of gives you a starting point for spirituality. This book opens you up to many new ideas, if your accepting.
Bob Frissell teaches a workshop with Drunvalo Melchizedek (highly reguarded for his work in spirituality, especially with the Merkaba meditation) called the Flower Of Life workshop which focuses on Merkaba meditation techniques which encompasses sacred geometry. If you would like anymore information on this workshop or if their are any workshops coming up locally check out this page: Http://www.floweroflife.org
