what is your favorite greenpilled book?

>When I asked writer and RAW aficionado John Higgs, “What’s your favorite RAW book?” he replied, "O man, favourite RAW book? That's a shifting target. Although it's clearly Cosmic Trigger. But occasionally, Prometheus Rising. When it's not being Cosmic Trigger. Which it always is. Unless it's Quantum Psychology.”
>This may sound like prevarication to someone unfamiliar with maybe logic, model agnosticism, or guerrilla ontology, but John’s “shifting target” dilemma sounds amusingly familiar to anyone who has read Cosmic Trigger, Prometheus Rising, and Quantum Psychology. This “dilemma” sits at the core of RAW speculations on the shifting nature of our reality tunnels.

Currently reading Cosmic Trigger, I read the Illumantus trilogy, Prometheus Rising, The Holographic Universe, the Kybalion and that Montalk Fringe Knowledge for Beginners book.
I don't really know what my favorite is, I think the illuminatus trilogy.

Discordianism is process philosophy applied as an experimental religion-as-art. R.A.W. himself was a big fan of Alfred North Whitehead. Deleuze is also greenpilled AF.

Read this and you'll see the parallells between Discordianism and process thought: https://imgur.com/a/ZtLDYJT

I meant "greenpilled" as in 20th century American alt-counter-culture. I suppose it may be expanded to a lot more too.
Still hooked on Stenger's Thinking with Whitehead.
Nicholas Rechser has also put valuable input into process philosophy.

You can just get started, if you want to know where RAW is getting all his stuff from just read the wikipedia page on Prometheus Rising and click all the links.
