Saul-Paul Sirag
Sirag’s religious background and psychedelic experiences piqued his interest in consciousness, especially with respect to physics, which he taught himself by auditing classes and reading. He taught at Arthur Young’s Institute for the Study of Consciousness and then at Henry Dakin’s Washington Research Center. He co-led several workshops at Esalen and was president of the Parapsychology Research Group in San Francisco.
Sirag has written numerous articles on his many areas of interest–from the Baconian authorship of Shakespeare to the historical Jesus. His monograph, ADEX Theory: How the ADE Coxeter Graphs Unify Math and Physics,
is available through World Scientific.
Saul-Paul Sirag lives in Eugene, Oregon, with his wife, Mary-Minn,
and rescue cat, Leonora.
