When he opened his eyes everything, from the flowers in a vase to the creases in his trousers, was transformed. Huxley described his experience with breathtaking immediacy in \u003ci\u003eThe Doors of Perception. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn its sequel \u003ci\u003eHeaven and Hell\u003c\/i\u003e, he goes on to explore the history and nature of mysticism.
