...Inner Light . . . The legs, for example, of that chair-how miraculous their tubularity ... I spent several minutes-or was it several centuries?-not merely gazing at those bamboo legs but actually being them . . ." Amateur Mystic Huxley was experimenting with mescaline, a drug which some have thought might become a psychiatrist's tool, like pentothal and Amytal. The purpose of these drugs is to banish a patient's inhibitions and "bring him out of himself."
