You might try herbs like maca or tongat ali. But do youre research

He doesnt really read the books, he spead reads them and takes few notes. He even told it on some video. But i guess that is cool too, if you do it everyday.

For spiritual stuff i like, David R Hawkings - Power vs Force, Letting go, Healing and recovery

I love to Listen Alan Watts breaking down the universe. The voice and the charisma are crazy.

I dont think this is true. I dont know who is enlightened and who is not, but for example Chogyam Trungpa was a boozebag, Alan Watts was a drunkster, Ram Dass did never become totally sober guy, Ekhart Tolle smoked a joint couple of years back. Watts definetly wasnt enlightened, the other may be. Enlightenment doesnt mean that you become a great person

I dont think, Its not all that black and white. I think most "great men" are not 100% non alcohol. For myself, few times a year is okay, but not more.
