Jodorowsky, Alejandro
In 1970, John Lennon introduced to the world Alejandro Jodorowsky and his film El Topo. Both instantly became counterculture icons. Now, after a brilliant career in film, theater, art, music and psychotherapy, Jodorowsky tells the story of his spiritual quest. Japanese master Ejo Takata taught him Zen meditation and the wisdom of the koans. But it was a group of women far removed from the world of Buddhism who initiated him and taught him how to put what he learned from Takata into practice. 264 pp.
