Why did Marcia Moore, the celebrated yoga teacher, astrologer and author, and Howard Sunny Alltounian, MD, a successful and respected anesthesiologist, risk their health, their careers, even their sanity?This is the intimate personal story of their life together, their love and their explorations into forbidden zones of higher consciousness.Here is tape-recorded evidence of the struggles they endured, the past lives they relived and the joy that they found—under the guidance of the goddess Ketamine. It's an inner-space adventure story, more exciting and more profound than any novel. And every word true.

"Experiencing the blissful state that the practitioners of yoga call
"Truly, we are now living in the midst of Armageddon. At this moment of supreme planetary crisis every effort must be made to regenerate the ailing body of humanity, to redeem our discordant past, and to salvage the best elements of modern culture as seeds for future seasons of growth. Out of our concern with the current world situation, we have decided to publicize our research even before we can vindicate our activities with a mass of meticulously documented statistical studies. In short, we are 'blowing our cover,' with the full knowledge that we are taking a calculated risk in stirring up resistances before we are strong enough to withstand the opposition. There simply isn't time to fiddle while Rome burns."
