Home (ego death and self-control cybernetics)
There are plenty of general psychedelics-and-religion bibliographies already; it's nearly common knowledge by now. There are already about ten books about entheogens in Western religions. I will merely provide links to such comprehensive sites.
It is great that people are making a strong connection now between entheogens and the origin of essentially all religions, but this new common knowledge lacks a philosophy and theory of metaphysics and time.
I am going to be very selective and strive for books that especially support the convergence of the following areas.
o Entheogens in the origin of religions, particularly the mystery religions.
o Religious experiencing rationally and clearly explained.
o Judeo-Christianity as mystery religion.
o Metaphysics of time, theory of frozen time, including hidden-variables determinism and tenseless time
o Personal control agency
I will not provide much coverage of these areas: shamanism, most Eastern religion, 20th-century psychedelics history.
http://www.erowid.org/library/books/zen_drugs.shtml - Zen, Drugs, and Mysticism. A dubious position, but a standard point of reference.
http://www.erowid.org/library/books/minds_i.shtml -- articles about self and personal agency.
Entheogen theory of the origin of religions
The active eucharist that reveals the kingdom of God
Eucharist (Catholic authors II)
Lord's Supper (Prot., E. Orth, Ecum.)
http://www.egodeath.com/amanita.htm - amanita books and links, also general entheogens in western religion
Book lists at Dan Russell's Drug War & herbal site --
http://www.drugwar.com/psychedelicbooks.htm -- probably sufficient for my purposes. Overlaps with these other book-pages:

Requirements for an ideal set of webpages about relevant books: Includes date, author, title, purchase-link, reason why relevant, link to various site pages about the book: mindbooks, csp.org, erowid, amazon, b-noble
I have a local copy of the complete final book list.
