A General Look at Alchemy Part 3
Philosopher's Stone
The Philosopher's Stone is a catalyst that transforms an object at its finest. With the application of the Stone, for example, transform base metals into gold, men become gods. The stone is a prime requisite in Alchemy and Hermeticism without the State of regeneration and resurrection are not attained.
Legends of mystical stones found in various cultures, for example, Taoist concern the stone as the Stone of Wisdom. "Call The Burmese they" Live Metal Stone. "Muslims worship the stone is deposited in the Kaaba. This stone is said to be a fragment of a meteorite. Traditionally believed to be white in tone, but for the sins of men, went black. There is a stone called "Cintamani" says it is a jewel of the state of mystical and mythical city of Shamballa. Shamballa is believed to exist in the etheric plane over the Gobi desert. Esoterically speaking, "Cintamani," or the "jewel of love" represents the perfect expression of the Anahata, or heart chakra, the enlightened mind, or bodicitta. When an applicant is told to acquire Cintamani, the development of the heart chakra is concerned. This has its parallel with the Grail quest in which, microcosmically speaking, a spiritual principle in man is the object of the search. This is supported by the tradition that Solomon's temple was built without sound of the instruments. A certain stone called "Samir" is used to fashion the Temple. Esotericists know that the temple referred to the causal body, the ship clothing Monad, the Spirit of Man. The Temple, or the causal body is built with stone shining virtues, good works, and an enlightened mind. This is food beautifying the temple.
Perfect love is really a catalyst. His power is transformed into human expression of the divine. Love is an aspect of Buddhist component in man alchemically speaking, is described as the gluten of the White Eagle.
From the above can be deduced that the philosopher's stone is no stone in a sense ordinary. This is stressed repeatedly by the alchemists in their writings. State that the stone is made out of raw material and is composed of four elements. The stone Believed to be hidden within man. The divine powers are attributed to this fabulous stone. His appearance, so say the alchemists, is ugly to see cases found in the uncleanness, and has no value for most men. As there are several categories of alchemy, it is likely that the stone is different at each level of alchemy, taking different characteristics and nature.
Besides love, other aspects of God, Omneity can say that the stone as supreme reason, wisdom, power and light. These qualities have the ability to purify and enlighten the body, mind and soul. To purchase the Stone is to discover the Truth, Reality and the Absolute, the "fixed" non-added - and this is the Magnum Opus - to experience and know the reality veiled by the "adversary" liar, "opponent" or "maya." It is the most sublime of work anyone can do.It meets the old adage, "Man, know thyself." The stone derives its power from the aspect large man, his divine being, which is essentially a spark of God.
Christ is sometimes described as a stone - a cornerstone that is at the same time its highest point - that architecturally, describes a pyramidal structure in the above sense, Christ, Light, Life and Love are synonymous, for we all partake of nature of the stone, they all have the ability to transmute man's being. Christ Consciousness is the stone which transmutes the whole man.
The heart chakra the crown, and the heart chakra anchored in the thymus gland, are places where the stone displays its power. Within the crown, the Sahasrara chakra, the Stone of Christ magnetizing head centers and crystallizes in the ventricles of the brain, leading to the expression of hormones and nectars of a spiritual quality that flows into the stream blood and increasing the vibratory rate of the body-atomic structure. This blood becomes the saving blood of Christ.
There is a divine flame of life, anchored in the heart. When it feeds on the mystical stone, by Love - Life - Principle of light, radiating energy and magnetism to the surrounding area - the thymus gland, the pericardial sac and fluid, and the heart itself. It regenerates the blood cells as blood flows through the heart and lungs resulting in the youth, vitality and radiant health. Hindu yogis declare that those who do not love, aging rapidly. In light of the above, the "how" and "why" are easy to discern.
There are occultists who believe that the Philosopher's Stone is a gnosis of transmission of certain candidates worthy by the Adepts of Art. This stone, then, refers to the doctrines of the mystical / occult principles that allows one to attain perfection in a single lifetime. Initiation and rituals play a vital role in this transmission. By applying esoteric principles, the candidate becomes a master soul. An adept is in some sense the Philosopher's Stone by their mere presence transmutes all who are lucky enough to get in touch with him.
Raw Material
Nothing comes from nothing, so both, matter and life must have been a source. The Absolute is the source, is the Supreme Reality, and is constantly emanating and absorbing in itself new energy and intelligences that are manifested in the existence of universes. Out of the Absolute, is an emanation of Prakriti and Purusha - Cosmic Root Substance Cosmic Mind-Consciousness-Intelligence. These two principles are personified by Shiva and Shakti.
Cosmic Root Substance is the Prima Materia, Materia Prima, and "Chaos", which all the elements and substances proceed. Spiritual energy is unstructured so far in the particulate matter from the cosmic mind. Hindu mystics sometimes called First matter "Akasha", which means "space."
Cosmic Mind creates by submitting a form, a way of thinking, A draft of the planned demonstration, and coalescing around the substance required raw materials. First, the energies of electrons are concentrated in fluids, protons and other subatomic particles, which later combined to form an atom, which has the germ of "seed", the atomic number and structure of the blue-print and thought of what would eventually become. The atoms are grouped to molecules that later formed into knowable mass by the senses. The substance then fills in the form of image, the "shell" of the seed.
Man's mind, being part of the mind Cosmic has the potential to create a similar manner as the Supreme Creator. Only when man truly reflects the image of his creator gave him authority to do so.
Alchemists declare that the first area is within man. In fact, our entire universe is permeated with it. It is present everywhere but does not show up magnetized by the mind.
Differentiation between matter and consciousness is an illusion at the surface of reality. The many in his existence on can be reduced to one - the Absolute, the Supreme Being. Kabbalistically speaking, the fruit of the tree of life are absorbed into Ain Sof and Ain Sof Aur, which in essence reduces Ain, the One, the All, the unknowable.
Seed
In a figurative sense, the alchemical seed, like an ordinary seed, has both germ and the shell - the masculine and feminine qualities. As applied to alchemy, the germ is the atomic number and the "DNA" of the substance, while the shell is the way to the filler. Mind are the seeds. They are blue-prints that are manifested in the physical plane when magnetized and substantialized with First Instead the matter.
The seeds are alchemical archetypes - the essence or germ of the demonstrations, and what is in the process of being manifested. Everything has a seed, a conception of what a thing is meant to be. Mind, the Director of the Philosopher's Stone, nourishes seeds with raw materials.
The following are the steps likely used by medieval alchemists of transmutation on the physical level: first, the base metal is melted down - the heat of the flame has a transforming effect at the molecular level. Second, at some point in the operation, the human mind comes into play, control and direction of atomic and subatomic levels - change vibrational frequency, the atomic number and structure of gold. It is said that to make gold we must have gold. This does not refer to the addition of metals to a gold base. This gold seed is a seed in the form of electronic pattern or model of gold held in a higher consciousness. The mind should be in a state of gold and consciousness.
In a transcendent level, to transmute itself a god, he may require a patron god, a god-ideal visualized and meditated. Once the image is perfect is assumed or identifies himself with it, keeping constantly in mind even after the meditation session. This would result in an increase in vibration rate the various principles that make the man. Technically, synchornizes the mind of man with God-archetype, and magnetic induction, becomes the god. Visualization, or mental imaging is the method by which the archetype is established. Precipitation may occur instantly, as a manifestation paranormal or after a period of time depending on the nature and extent of the archetype.
The processes described above seem to be one of the great secrets sealed Mysteries of Egypt. The methods that correspond with the practices of Vajrayana in Tibetan Buddhism, for example, the discipline of "divine pride" of be a Buddha.
Ethically speaking, before the man tries to put the forces of nature in action, it should be envisaged in terms of solvency their designs. If their designs do not fit or meet the divine requirements, then put them to the demonstration would be simply a violation of the law cosmic, and therefore can be considered as an operation of black magic. According to Martin, is this very violation of the law that caused "the fall" Adam Kadmon.
The mercury-sulfur-salt
According to the alchemists, mercury, salt and sulfur are the triple aspects of all phenomena - which found in all compounds of a mineral or organic nature. We hypothesize that differences in the proportions of each aspect in a compound, could cause a transmutation to occur. Mercury, and salt and sulfur, no common vulgar materials to be used to effect a transmutation. This is made clear by exponents of the Royal Art.
Esoterically, Mercury represents Spirit, Sal - Body and sulfur - Alma. Every phenomenon and object in nature is thought to possess these three attributes. It is believed that the separation of every aspect of an added substance, purification, and then recombine them, the result would be a total refinement of the object.
Philosophically speaking, Mercury is the mind, Sal - Will and Wisdom, sulfur - Love. All three are components or principles of the philosopher's stone, and work powerfully to transmute any base metal or character in the perfection of gold. Without these principles, the coveted stone is ineffective in its ability to change the rates of vibration.
Sulfur molds a person into a balanced individual with the desire and motivation to act creatively; Sal actually give the individual with the will and power to act, while Mercury, the intellectual principle is the factor of coordination of both sulfur and salt. Mercury, sulfur and salt, along with the mysterious Azoth, the Divine Fire, or "Scamayim" are the attributes of the stone, and work wonders when applied knowingly. These principles and Three Azoth correspond to the Christian Trinity embodies the feminine principle Mary. Azoth is the Shakti aspect of the Holy Trinity.
Seven Metals
Metals in the world of alchemy and esotericism in general, represents several conditions and principles set out in Man and Nature. For example, metals may represent the seven components or bodies making what is called "man"; exoteric the seven rays of the Great Central Sun, and the seven main chakras in the subtle body. The seven metals also correspond to the seven angels who preside over the ray, the seven archangels, the Chohans seven, seven pairs of Elohim, etc.
Symbolically, the seven metals representing the seven planets known to the ancients - also counting the sun and moon are not planets themselves, but a solar body and a satellite. The correspondences are as follows: gold-sun, moon of silver, lead Saturn, Mercury, Mercury, Jupiter tin, iron for Mars, Venus and copper.
The true subject of alchemy is the man - Man is the object transmutation. The Alchemist is both subject and object, the operator and it is operated. The metals are associated with elements of human nature. Pure gold is the character of a "perfect" person - is the manifestation of perfection already inherent in man's highest principle.
Within the body etheric chakras are the planets of phosphorus. In Gichtel "Practice Theosophy," shows a diagram of a human being with the position of the orbs placed in the body. This certainly shows that the chakras were known by Western mystics through the centuries and played an important role in the spiritual tradition. The seven seals of Revelation is the other "revelation" of this fact.
Compassion is one of the highest in Ego feelings of other living units who are struggling in the business of life. The sense of unity with all life around is an indication of one's own growing awareness of God. Be "the guardian of my brother is no longer a burden to a person progress in spiritual path, is a dharma or duty that one feels a privilege in obedience - of being true to yourself. It was because a sense of duty that spiritual alchemists embarked on the quest for a universal panacea to cure the disease, suffering and pain of a fall of humanity.
The pain, disease, and imbalances can be found at various levels of the microcosm - the physical, emotional, mental, and so the universal panacea, in general, one can say that the principles and laws of God that harmony and health if applied.
Physical pain and illness are the result of the lack of prana, life force, or "Mumia" as Paraclesus called, in the psycho-biological system. This flow is interrupted, primarily the result of a condition psychic triggered by negative thoughts and emotions. When prana-flow channels or purified, when the Yin and Yang, positive and negative polarity Pies are well balanced when the four elements that reside in the body are in a state of equilibrium, then health should be given.
There is a higher source life-essence that is rays from the Great Central Sun directly to the monad and down for the Soul of man, and this is associated with the flame of life that lie at the heart fitness. daily devotions to the flame inside and the "Father who art in heaven," causes a decrease in the essences of life, the Alma fire, Quaternary vehicles ego expression and results in a regeneration of the whole psychobiological system.
An excess of life force within the body and radiates outward, forming a protective aura around the body. There are, however, important points of the terminal where the flow of vital force in a state of concentration. Hands are only two of these endpoints. The radiated energy from these chakras are called by many names. "Sa-Ankh" force-Od, animal magnetism, nerve energy, etc. Egyptian mystics called past
It is an interesting concept on the above principle and the fire of the Soul. By concentrating and meditating on the soul, law the highest tendency to flow in abundance, and this energy together with solar, lunar, and earth prana, when embedded in a substance, like water, the fluid would to be charged with life-essences can restore the patient to the fullest when consumed by them.
The magnetically charged water can be considered as a manifestations of the Elixir of life, the nectar of the gods, or the universal panacea. Tantric icons of deities are sometimes depicted as holding a vessel nectar in their hands. Obviously, a certain law and principle are indicated by this mudra. Practitioners of meditation would do well to experience holding in his hands a cup of water during meditation and consume immediately after the meditation session. The result could be stimulating and invigorating to the psycho-biological system, strengthening the existing dynamic forces.
Fire
Fire is essentially divine, emanating as it does from the divine. "God is a consuming fire" is a known expression found in the scriptures. Fire purifies and accelerates the movement of atomic particles - it increases its vibration. Fire is a principle operator, a tool in the divine hand of Shiva, transformation and transmutation of matter to spirit, and spirit to matter. Heraclitus considers fire be the first principle from which all things owe their existence, "fire" meant that the divine fire, "Scamayim" of which is continuously Qaballists being poured by Ain Sof. The center of this flux in our solar system is the sun. The man is the Monad. This indicates that whatever is, is essentially the fire.
The man, the Monad, is a spark of fire from the Great Central Sun, all the principles of man are the fire in the demonstration and less intense. A spark of the Monad lies in the heart of man. Fueling this fire with daily devotions right action, right thought, right speech, meditation and prayer increases the power, wisdom, and love of the divine nature of man - this is represented by the triple spiritual nature of the heart of the flame, the flower de lis.
The adepts of alchemy advise their students to work in the raw material with internal and external Fire, ie, the fires of the mind, kundalini, the substance of Christ, sexual energy, prana, and the chemical fire. This teaching of the master mind shows that the fire is manifested in many ways worlds visible and invisible. The fire is defined as "an internal activity whose external manifestations are heat and light."
Fire was worshiped in many ancient cultures as a manifestation of the Supreme Being. Initiates of the temples invokes the divine fire within himself in their daily rituals of worship and esoteric exercises. Alchemy continues the tradition of honoring the principle of fire, however, by adding a new dimension to the rites of worship for its practical and scientific.
Mythologically, Prometheus stole fire from heaven and given to primitive man, to the displeasure of the gods to humanity was not yet ready for use this principle creatively and selflessly. The secrets of the fire was subsequently withdrawn, but not entirely, here and there, the children (started) of the gods, the age of majority and were therefore responsible for the mysteries of fire and were given the authority to exercise power wisely, with wisdom and compassion for the benefit of all beings.
In nanotechnology, a science still in the theoretical stage, miniature machines at the nanoscale are expected to realize future generations. The problem facing scientists today is the creation of the nano first machine, a universal assembler, "which would create other machines and component parts of the molecules selected and later can be programmed to do a special job. One of his ideas on the development of this universal nano-assembly is create a small assembly in the millimeter scale, which in turn create another assembly of a smaller dimension, and so on up the scale nano. This technology, when realized, has a wide range of applications in fields of medicine, ecology, and industry. The potential for abuse is also inherent. In a sense, this infant science of alchemy is related to its development is applicable in the art of transmutation and precipitation on the physical level. Using his own terminology, is the fire of the alchemist's mind is the "universal assembler."
Fire fascinates and hypnotizes man, almost taking to higher realities, as an allegory of the myth of Zeus in the form of an eagle snatching Ganymede to the heavens. The closer one approaches against fire of God, the most clean of all karmic sins accommodation and ossifying the four lower bodies.
