“ Sex, Drugs and Om. Autobiography of an American Yogi” By Greg Reese BOOK REVIEW


Book Review and Drawing By Maria Grasmick
Sex Drugs and Om By Greg Reese Book review by Maria Grasmick
The Main Character is Greg Reese himself. Currently a reporter for Infowars, He writes here, an autobiography of his experiences in life. In the style of WONDERLAND AVENUE by Sugarmen but more SPIRITUAL. He is the narrator on the audible version.
The stage is various places, from Ohio Cleveland Catholic School California Florida New Zealand Desert Storm Marine corps London and Buddhist temples. There are minor characters he gives names as Cadence, Crystal, Xanadu, Steve, Cat, Hanover and Gaylord. Wanderings in the philosophy of books, and how they changed his life. And there seemed to be a presence following him, that showed him the way when he most needed.
The situtation was, he longed for, sought, relief from evil. Pining of, a LIFE WITHOUT PAIN. He had spiritual experiences, unexplainable, and supernatural, that healed him. The book describes an Escape from the prison of his mind. Finding meaning through years of existential and violent thoughts, destructive desires. That feeling of being born bad, transmuted into illumination.
Sex, Drugs and Om. Is a fitting title. There are many stories of those three. The aesthetic of those in vivid detail. Longing, I could feel the want. It is very well written and casually emotional.
He was a man trying to find himself in life. Its a confession. Its brutally unlocked and candid. There was a constant feeling throughout that he was hunting meaning in his life. That he could find nowhere but inside himself. In Meditation. I feel he was born gifted but could never find an outlet until he LIVED. And foraged the answers out.
There was a secret that was revealed to him at the end, where repressed memories came back. This was the key to relieving . This “skeleton in the cupboard”, even he did not remember for decades. There were abusive women and many negative people along his way, that had just been his undealt reflections.
What was at stake, was his very soul. He wanted control and peace. Its a journey out of darkness into light. Someone with true knowledge of evil, that wound up being saved in the end. There was malice, lingering in shadows that he could not quite understand. His life was at stake. His conscience.
This book you will love. I loved it. Its been a long time since I read a good book, so honest open, in a long time. Its for adults. He speaks candidly of things I wish I could speak about also, of my life. I want to say, I felt the same way, and I had many experiences just like his, uncanny. Maybe you can relate as well. Its very open. The book itself is a ritual. He is telling you things most people would never admit to. And its psychologically palliative to read.
Very juicy, all of his experiences with drugs from lsd to cocaine. The trips themselves and what he saw. Mescaline and a tupperware bowl, filled with cocaine. Noteworthy if you are interested in psychadelic experiences, firsthand. Spiritual disciplines he learned along the way. And paranormal experiences that changed his life.
His stories on sex, as a drug and his desire to find unconditional love in sometimes low places. Narratives of his childhood, in a relatable way. I could link to them. Tales of being a marine and his 40 days in the desert experience. The OM was his interest in buddhism, and how exactly he got enlightened and what techniques he used. So its like getting the discplines without joining a temple. He tells you how.
I was touched by reading this in one sitting. I couldnt put it down.

Excellent

This was an excellent book for me to read during this time. I am similar in age to Greg and I have spent the majority of my life “living for the weekend” and partying/drinking almost every weekend of my life while holding down a good job during the week.

I had been listening to a lot of “self help” books but I felt I needed to find some sort of book I could relate to. I related to Greg so much in this book.

At times I hit the fast forward button and thought there were a few things that were kind of odd, but I kept listening and glad I did.

It’s almost like you needed to hear Greg’s full story to grasp the last hour of the book.

The last hour of the book was literally superb with good lessons.

Thank you Greg as I finally have listened to somebody that was similar to me and how they improved themselves organically.

If you feel lost, seeking desires, have addictions, etc., this may be the book for you.

excellent

I thought the book was well written and was engrossing to read. A beautiful portrayal of a progressive spiritual awakening. The reader should be cautioned about the periodic explicit content.

Wisdom by Mistakes.

If you are walking a path anywhere near this story, you will love this book. There is a plethora of wisdom from experience written/told here. If you want to know how someone acquires such wisdom, they'll usually tell you they've made many of mistakes. "I highly recommend this read."

Honest and Facinating

At the beginning it just seems like a tale of one suffering through life, but as the story continues you realize that the beginning was necessary to understand the rest. It is a story of an extreme quest for self discovery and peace and will be helpful to anyone seeking those things. The narration is very well done.
