Alan's entire philosophy was to be experienced - not just understood. In the koan, if you want to call it that, both people 'understand' something 'mystical' about reality, neither can experience it.

Alan Watts' autobiography is In My Own Way. However, it is within The Joyous Cosmology that he details his psychedelic experiences(s), if I recall correctly.

Aldous Huxley details his psychedelic experience(s) in The Doors of Perception.

Edit: Timothy Leary's autobiography is Flashbacks.
