Medicine, sex, and religion are presented as related areas of human thought and behavior in which people traditionally have sought temporary release from daily living. In essence, these areas represent a search for altered states of consciousness. The harmful way is through drug addiction.Five common characteristics are cited for the three areas. Examples of their universality are traceable by their omnipresence and their appearance in most childhood games-especially those taking on sexual nuances-which are usually hidden from adults.If Eastern knowledge and control of bodily processes were geared to Western technology, mankind would benefit.
医学、性和宗教被视为人类思想和行为的相关领域，在这些领域中，人们传统上寻求从日常生活中暂时解脱。从本质上讲，这些领域代表了对意识改变状态的探索。有害的方式是通过药物成瘾。文中列举了这三个领域的五个共同特征。它们普遍性的例子可以通过其无处不在以及在大多数儿童游戏中出现——尤其是那些带有性暗示的游戏——来追溯，而这些通常对成年人是隐藏的。如果东方对身体过程的知识和控制与西方技术相结合，人类将受益。
