I have recently posting some basic philosophy stuff, on my facebook. I'm doing a day-by-day commentary as I read through, Descartes' Discourse; trying to get people interested in philosophy. Anyways, a cousin brought up Carlos Castaneda's as a poignant modern philosopher. I've never heard of him, honestly. From a what I gather from a quick google search and reading through a few articles he was on the mysticism/new-age drug addled side of things.
I was just hoping to get some opinions, thoughts, and see if it's worth reading any of his books.
