just terrible! - This guy has absolutely no writing style at all! what is this!! in absolute attempt to make sense of what hes saying, nothing was understood! definitely not a book for the universal - this guy cannot write and obviously doesnt mind if people cannot decode his awful language!!
Very different from his later works - I read this book after thoroughly enjoying Quantum Psychology by RA Wilson. I have to say I didn t enjoy this nearly book as much. It seems quite repetitive, his writing style is less mature and he has an obsession with immortality which I personally find quite boring. He seems to hammer points in by representing them in as many abstract ways as he can but doesn t actually go into detail about the road to achieving them.I think if you didn t enjoy this book then go and read Quantum Psychology, which gives more immediate gratification in showing everyday issues in a new light. I m glad I read that first so as not to be put off Wilson.I m only 19 though and perhaps if you are older the idioms of the 70s and life extension will be more appealing and you will enjoy this more.
Nothing is true. Everything is permitted - This book was the first of Wilsons that I read. My reasons.... Unknown, an urge, a recommedation, unknown forces, who knows. However this has changed my life, Caused me much confusion of thought and much angry. Perhaps this is the Chapel Perilious that is refered to by Wilson and I am still on my journey through it, or am I?I strongly recommend this, Sex, Drugs and Magic and Cosmic Trigger 2. So far this book has turned me onto the works of Aleister Crowley, Dion Fortune and Israel Regardie and a lot more.
BRILLIANT & PROVOCATIVE - So many threads come together in this well-written book that it s all a bit overwhelming at first. His style is witty, honest, compelling and addictive and subjects range from mysteries & magick to self-improvement and life extension. I enjoyed the many similarities in style & subject matter with some of my other favourite authors like Stuart Wilde, U. S. Andersen and Colin Wilson. It has also a kindled an interest in many other authors mentioned in the text, especially Timothy Leary who I thought was just a 60s cult figure but whose later work I will definitely investigate now. Cosmic Trigger I is definitely amongst my Top 10 books of all time. People who enjoyed this book will love Affirmations by Stuart Wilde, The Greatest Power In The Universe by U. S. Andersen and From Atlantis To The Sphinx by Colin Wilson.
Excellent! - The first cosmic trigger is in my opinion the finest non text-book on Magick/fortean subjects.I reread it every year and am fascinated every time.If you want an intro into occultism buy this book.
