The original charter and by-laws for the League for Spiritual Discovery, founded by Timothy Leary in Millbrook, NY in October, 1966. Here, Leary and his cohort outline the structure of a new religious association that identifies LSD, peyote and psilocybin as The Sacraments used to commune with, “evolutionary wisdoms preserved in cellular and molecular structures”, and to facilitate the ritual, “to go out of the mind and to come to the senses”. Five - 8 1/2″ X 11″ pages total, with the first four pages stapled top-left, page 5 having come loose about 20 years ago.

Pretty sad, really… The way the owner acquired this was through Leary’s wife, who was selling stuff to pay for the prosecution of Timothy Leary. This document looks terrible, and should have been curated for the last 40 years, if it weren’t for circumstance which would necessitate its sale. Leary, by the way, was a very accomplished academic by the time he was ousted from Harvard. It is evident, in reading this charter document, that the premise is very sound and coherently presented.

The Old Testament is full of references to Biblical men, such as Solomon, David, and others, who had not only multiple wives, but also harems of concubines at their disposal. Today the practice of polygyny (one man having multiple wives) is illegal in most places. Although we can acknowledge polygyny in principal, we must recognize and honor the primacy and priority of the marriage bond between one husband and one wife. Whenever a third party is introduced into this equation, it must only be to support and strengthen the existing marriage bond between those two individuals. So, if bringing in another woman would in any way undermine the relationship between husband and wife, it should not be pursued.

Playing by God’s Rules

If, on the other hand, a married couple feels their relationship would benefit from them establishing a loving involvement another woman, out of respect for the couple’s marriage, and out of respect for any marital attachments of the other woman, they must abide by certain limits and conditions:

(1) To avoid the impropriety of male homosexuality, a heterosexual couple should not under any circumstances form a threesome with another man.
(2) Both women involved in the threesome must be willing to keep within traditional female roles (i.e., not taking on masculine appearance or behavior in or out of the bedroom) and recognize the male as the leader in the relationship.
(3) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is unmarried, it may be permissible for the husband to have relations with her only with his wife’s consent.
(4) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is unmarried, but the wife does not wish her to have relations with the other woman, the husband should respect this.
(5) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is married, her husband must not have objections to the relationship.
(6) If the wife’s lesbian sex partner is married, the husband should refrain from having any sexual relations with her, and should make every effort to control his fantasies about her. He should concentrate his attention on his own wife.

Cool cover of Strauss, but if anyone can answer this for me… which came first: this, or Phish’s cover? …or, a third-party (e.g. Mannheim Steamroller/Hooked on Classics or some crazy shit). They’re uncannily similar. This video looks 80s-tastic, but that’s no measure. I’m going to default to Phish.
