Nature of Consciousness

In this memoir, Gary recounts how he went from being a successful rock and roller to a writer on consciousness and the western inner tradition. He shares encounters with rockers such as the Ramones, New York Dolls, Patti Smith, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Iggy Pop and also Timothy Leary, William Burroughs, and Allen Ginsberg. Living with Blondie’s Debbie Harry and Chris Stein on New York’s Bowery, a block from the birthplace of punk rock, CBGB, Gary discovered occultism via a follower of Aleister Crowley. Post rock and roll, Gary’s occult studies brought him to the Golden Dawn, Manly P. Hall, Gnosticism, and a stint in Crowley’s O.T.O. He details his time in the Fourth Way, including a visit to the site of Gurdjieff’s Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man in France, and his years studying philosophy and literature and working as a Science Writer, while managing a famous metaphysical bookshop at the height of the New Age. Excursions to Stonehenge, Avebury, and Glastonbury in search of ley lines, and pilgrimages to Colin Wilson’s home in Cornwall, are a few of the highlights of this introspective, humorous account of a nascent writer’s struggle from rock and roll to individuation. #RhondaGrant #natureofconsciousness #garylachman #rockandroll #touchedbythepresence #occultism #fourthway #gnosticism #ColinWilson #Gurdjieff #ramones #newyorkdolls #pattismith #therollingstones #DavidBowie #iggypop #debbieharry #blondie #timothyleary #williamburroughs #allenginsberg #chrisstein #PunkRock #aleistercrowley #metaphysical #NewAge #stonehenge #avebury #glastonbury Learn more about your ad choices.
