Why read it?
1 author picked Psychomagic as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I know this to be true from my own experience and I write books and make art with this intention. Jodorowsky believes this too and prescribes artistic acts as therapy in a way that is totally audacious, moving, and often hilarious.
From Mike's list on questioning the nature of reality and fun to read.
