The Occult. A History by Colin Wilson * 1
    #15312592 - 11/02/11 09:25 AM (12 years, 3 months ago)

I just read the Analytical table of this book and it mentions everything from the psychedelic experience, lsd-25, Aleister Crowley, Much on Mysticism, Mystical experiences and a ton of stuff about Jung.

This book is going to suck me in a like a vacume

Anyone else ever read it?

How did you like it? What are your thoughts on it?

Here's a quote from it.

‎"Man has reached a point in his evolution where he must graduate from clocks to watches, from the large to the subtle. He must turn increasingly inward. That is, he must turn to the hidden levels of his being, to the 'occult', to meanings and vibrations that have so far been too fine to grasp." -The Occult: A History by Colin Wilson

I'd have to pull the book and look at my underlinings and notes. Colin Wilson has been writing on occult matters for decades.

*Checking book*  Ah yes. 603 pages in hardcover, and very underlined. I must have enjoyed it, but I've been reading on these things since 1972, and have a pretty sizable library, so I can't remember what is in any volume unless I've been significantly influenced by it. But, this book IS a classic
