On Secrets and Sacraments

“Other than LSD, it’s quite possibly the most psychedelic thing you’ll ever find on paper.”

Handwritten over four years from maximum-security federal prison cells, The Rose of Paracelsus is a unique work of psychedelic literature that explores the potential of human cognition.

This book follows a Harvard graduate student and researcher, as he uncovers an intricate, global psychedelic network through encounters with “the Six”—a group of clandestine LSD chemists who synthesize planetary-scale batches of the substance, traversing states of consciousness and advancing human evolution.

From Cambridge to Moscow, Oxford to Zürich, Princeton to Mazar-i-Sharif and Bangkok, this book illuminates lifestyles within a rare and elusive organization, one that has evolved special gifts: advanced capacities of thought, memory and perception.
