DEDlCATiOnS 1968 This manuscript was entrusted to: My Beloved Daughter, Susan Leary and to My Beloved Son,Jack Leary 1995 Now the manuscript is passed, by them, to: Dieadra Martino Ashley Martino Sara Brown Brett Leary Annie Leary Davina-Susana Martino iv High Priest Timothy Leary William Burroughs ORJGlnAL ACKnOWLEDGEMEnTS events related in this history reflect the collective consciousness theand collaborative behavior of several thousand people spiritual researchers who have shared dark confusions and bright hopes, given their emotion, muscle, brain, and risked scorn and social isolation to pursue the psychedelic yoga. Homage and gratitude to these fellowexplorers. Richard Alpert and Ralph Metzner have participated in every phase ofthe long ascent and continue to climb higher. His-story is their story. Three tender elvish flowers, Rosemary Woodruff, Susan Leary, and Jack Leary, have endured the harshest ordeals of the journey at home and in prison and have survived, blossoming. Loving thanks to the psychologists and religious philosophers who have coun- seled at our centers in Cambridge, Boston, Zihuatanejo, Antigua, Millbrook, and Manhattan. The original art for this manuscript is the illuminated work ofAllen Atwell and Michael Green. The editorial acts of love were performed by Susan Firestone, Lorraine Schwartz, andJean McCreedy. The psychedelic revolution is a religious renaissance of the young, for the young, by the young. This volume presents Old Testament background for the new witness ofthose born after 1946, children oftheAtomic Age. The authentic priests, the real prophets of this great movement are the rock- and-roll musicians. Acid-rock is the hymns, odes, chants ofthe turned-on love gen- eration. For the first time in history, teen-agers (our new advanced mutant species) have written their own songs, beat their own rhythm, created their own religion. The work of the psychedelic scholar-politicians (described in this history) is over, with love and confidence we turn our work and our planet over to the young and their prophets: ORJGlnAL HtGH PRJESt BAnDS The Beatles The Byrds The RollingStones The Beach Boys TheJeffersonAirplane The Mamasand the Papas The Grateful Dead MobyGrape The DailyFlash The Doors CountryJoe and the Fish Charlie Lloyd The Monkees Donovan TheAssociation Buffalo Springfield TheAnimals BigBrotherand the HoldingCompany The Quicksilver MessengerService and manyother ecstatic combinations.
