Line 17: '''''God in a Pill? Meher Baba on L.S.D. and The High Roads''''' was a 1966 [[pamphlet]] containing messages from [[Meher Baba]] speaking out against taking illicit drugs like [[Cannabis (drug)\|marijuana]] and [[Lysergic acid diethylamide\|LSD]], ultimately saying they were harmful "physically, mentally, and spiritually." The pamphlet was published in 1966 by [[Sufism Reoriented]] using quotes by Meher Baba where he disparaged the view that [[~~Hallucinogen\|~~hallucinogenic]] and [[Psychedelic drug\|~~mind-changing~~psychedelic]] drugs]], especially [[Lysergic acid diethylamide\|LSD]], but also [[Cannabis (drug)\|marijuana]], [[psilocybin]], and other drugs, might be used to elicit meaningful spiritual insight. Meher Baba wrote, "If God can be found through the medium of any drug, God is not worthy of being God."<ref>''God in a Pill? Meher Baba on L.S.D. and The High Roads'', Sufism Reoriented, Inc. 1966, back cover</ref> It was compiled from letters to several academics in the West including Allan Cohen, Robert Dreyfuss and [[Ram Dass\|Richard Alpert]].<ref>''Lord Meher'' by Bhau Kalchuri, 1986, p. 6473</ref> The pamphlet went out of print, but in 2003 the material was republished in ''A Mirage Will Never Quench Your Thirst, A Source of Wisdom About Drugs'' by Laurent Weichberger (Sheriar Foundation, 2003).<ref>[http://www.amazon.com/dp/188061927X Amazon]</ref> The new book has material not contained in the original ''God in A Pill?'' and a section entitled ''God in A Pill? Revisited'', which reprints those quotes from ''God in A Pill?'' which were directly from Meher Baba related to drugs.
