just terrible! - By: M. Habibi, 25 Jul 2007 
This guy has absolutely no writing style at all! what is this!!in absolute attempt to make sense of what hes saying, nothing was understood! definitely not a book for the universal - this guy cannot write & obviously doesnt mind if people cannot decode his awful language!!
Very different from his later works - By: , 06 Feb 2006 
I read this book after thoroughly enjoying Quantum Psychology by RA Wilson. I have to say I didn't enjoy this nearly book as much. It seems quite repetitive, his writing style is less mature & he has an obsession with immortality which I personally find quite boring. He seems to hammer pointsin by representing themin as many abstract ways as he can but doesn't actually go into detail about the road to achieving them.
I think if you didn't enjoy this book then go & read Quantum Psychology, which gives more immediate gratificationin showing everyday issuesin a new light. I'm glad I read that first so as not to be put off Wilson.
I'm only 19 though & perhaps if you are older the idioms of the 70s & life extension will be more appealing & you will enjoy this more.
Nothing is true. Everything is permitted - By: , 07 May 2004 
This book was the first of Wilsons that I read. My reasons.... Unknown, an urge; a recommedation; unknown forces, who knows. However this has changed my life; Caused me much confusion of thought & much angry. Perhaps this is the Chapel Perilious that is refered to by Wilson & I am still on my journey through it, or am I?
I strongly recommend this, Sex, Drugs & Magic & Cosmic Trigger 2. So far this book has turned me onto the works of Aleister Crowley, Dion Fortune & Israel Regardie & a lot more.
BRILLIANT & PROVOCATIVE - By: Pieter, 21 Feb 2002 
So many threads come togetherin this well-written book that it's all a bit overwhelming at first. His style is witty, honest, compelling & addictive & subjects range from mysteries & magick to self-improvement & life extension. I enjoyed the many similaritiesin style & subject matter with some of my other favourite authors like Stuart Wilde, U. S. Andersen & Colin Wilson. It has also a kindled an interestin many other authors mentionedin the text, especially Timothy Leary who I thought was just a 60s cult figure but whose later work I will definitely investigate now. Cosmic Trigger I is definitely amongst my Top 10 books of all time. People who enjoyed this book will love Affirmations by Stuart Wilde, The Greatest Power In The Universe by U. S. Andersen & From Atlantis To The Sphinx by Colin Wilson.
Excellent! - By: , 05 Jun 2000 
The first cosmic trigger isin my opinion the finest non text-book on Magick/fortean subjects.I reread it every year & am fascinated every time.If you want an intro into 'occultism' buy this book.
