DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs long as there has been culture, there has been counterculture. At times it moves deep below the surface of things, a stealth mode of being all but invisible to the dominant paradigm; at other times it’s in plain sight, challenging the status quo; and at still other times it erupts in a fiery burst of creative–or destructive–energy to change the world forever. But until now the countercultural phenomenon has been one of history’s great blind spots. Individual countercultures have been explored, but never before has a book set out to demonstrate the recurring nature of counterculturalism across all times and societies, and to illustrate its dynamic role in the continuous evolution of human values and cultures. Countercultural pundit and cyberguru R. U. Sirius brilliantly sets the record straight in this colorful, anecdotal, and wide-ranging study based on ideas developed by the late Timothy Leary with Dan Joy. With a distinctive mix of scholarly erudition and gonzo passion, Sirius and Joy identify the distinguishing characteristics of countercultures, delving into history and myth to establish beyond doubt that, for all their surface differences, countercultures share important underlying principles: individualism, anti-authoritarianism, and a belief in the possibility of personal and social transformation. Ranging from the Socratic counterculture of ancient Athens and the outsider movements of Judaism, which left indelible marks on Western culture, to the Taoist, Sufi, and Zen Buddhist countercultures, which were equally influential in the East, to the famous countercultural moments of the last century–Paris in the twenties, Haight-Ashbury in the sixties, Tropicalismo, women’s liberation, punk rock–to the cutting-edge countercultures of the twenty-first century, which combine science, art, music, technology, politics, and religion in astonishing (and sometimes disturbing) new ways, Counterculture Through the Ages is an indispensable guidebook to where we’ve been . . . and where we’re going.

A Monk's Affairs tells a story that happened in the Yuan Dynasty in China, which was nearly seven hundred years ago. A Taoist witch gave a retired officials wife a monk made from wick, who could be as small as ten centimeters and as big as or taller than two meters. He seduced the wife and had sex with her a lot. He also seduced the wifes slave girl, Nuan Yu, and had sex with her a lot. And he seduced the retired officials daughter, Chang Gu, and had sex with her a lot as well, who was his wife by the first marriage five hundred years ago. He declared that he would take Chang Gu away with him two years later. Nuan Yu had sex with Chang Gus husband in Chang Gus current life and gave birth to a son. Chang Gu was caught by her husband when she was having sex with the monk. Her husband became angry and divorced her. Finally Chang Gu died from too much sex with the monk. The monk took Chang Gus spirit away with him after she died, which happened just two years after his declaration. The witchs daughter came to seduce the retired official and Chang Gus husband as well. They had a lot of sex together. Finally the retired official was shocked to death by the monk. Nuan Yu stole a lot of money and ran away with a slave boy, her son, abandoned. The widow began to have sex with a young Taoist priest and finally married him. The story has a lot of detailed descriptions of sex and propagates the idea of karma as well. Two Predestined Flesh Relationships tells a story that happened in a dynasty that was later than the Yuan Dynasty in China. A rich man, Fengs wife, Liu, was grabbed away from his home by a richer man, Bian. Liu didn't commit suicide because she was pregnant with Fengs child. Later, Bian was killed by one of his slaves when he was having sex with the slaves wife. Liu and Feng reunited and inherited all Bians money and led a happy life with their son after Bians death. Like A Monks Affairs, this story also propagates the idea of karma.
