Alchemical Gold – (485)

Introduction

Gold the goal of Alchemy, which has also driven so many people crazy in the past, trying to acquire it. However, the gold of the Alchemist as the following excerpts point out is not eh physical gold. It is rather the gold of the spirit.


Excerpt 1 – Alchemical Gold

“1.         Dead Gold is useless. It is necessary to give life to it.

2.          Just as the Sun gives light to the planets, Gold can transmute all of our imperfect metals.

3.        However, dead Gold is useless. Thus, it is necessary to give life to it and to reduce it to its female state, that is to say, to reduce it to its crude matter. It is also necessary for it to be reborn through the path of regeneration by retrogradation.

4.          Spiritual Gold is the Sacred Fire, the ineffable pleroma of the Spirit.

5.      Instead of ejaculating the Spiritual Gold, it is necessary to make it rise through the two ganglionic cords, in order to achieve the regeneration of the Being.

6.         This is how we give life to the dead Gold by reducing it to its crude matter, in order to convert it into volatile and spiritual Gold.

7.             Volatile Gold is the perfect medicine.

8.             Volatile Gold is the fire of Kundalini.

9.             Gold has an affinity with Mercury, both are perfect and incorruptible.

10.          The minor metals are Lead and Tin which are soft, and Iron and Copper which are hard.

11.        All these metals of our human personality are transmuted into volatile Gold with the powders of projection.

12.        These powders are the white and red elixirs of Sexual Alchemy (see Chapter 6, White Elixir and Red Elixir).

13.          The quadrature of the circle is found in Gold.

14.          Mercury and Gold form the Chaos when they are insolubly united.

15.          Gold fecundates Mercury in order for creation to emerge.

16.          One plus two equals three.

17.        The Father and the Mother are united in order for the Child to be born. The family united is the four.

18.          This is the quadrature of the circle.

19.          Therefore, the quadrature of the circle is found enclosed within the volatile Gold.

20.          Potable Gold is the same volatile Gold.

21.          This volatile Gold is the Sacred Fire of sex.

22.          Mercury is transmuted into volatile Gold.

23.          To synthesize, Gold becomes perfect Mercury.

24.          Mercury is the water of the Chaos, the Christonic semen that is transmuted into the living Gold of the Spirit.”

Excerpt from the book: “A Treatise of Alchemy”, chapter 22 by V.M Samael Aun Weor.


Summary

The gold of the Alchemists is then a spiritual substance that we need to fabricate and one that we also already have within ourselves, that is within our sexual energy. If we transmute constantly our sexual energy, never losing a drop, we can create that gold of the Alchemists. The gold in us is created when we transmute and when we dissolve the various psychological “I’s” that we have, thus purifying our sexual energy and no longer blocking or corrupting the gold in our sexual energy and in our spirit. 

The alchemical gold is also a symbol for the spirit inside the human being.

Attention with Mind, Attention with Essence - (5197)

These two attentions are different. Attention with the mind tires the brain. and reduces the flow of life into steps, where it is inevitable that the narration of the mind begins to take over. With the awareness of steps comes a certain tediousness and the feeling of the flow of life leaving us behind. With the attention of mind very little of what's behind events comes to us... Attention with the essence brings the power of presence, in other words brings a certain depth and continuity of flow  Attention with the essence doesn't tire or strain and opens doorways into perceiving what is behind events and the thoughts and feelings that appear within us. It allows us also to flow with the flow of life, which is a pleasant feeling. Conclusion, make the essence bring attention to outer and inner life. End (5197).

The Sacred Substance Askokin - (962)

Introduction In simple terms, the sacred Askokin substance is the result of the mercury and the sulphur. It is the transmuted energy that crystallises to form the internal bodies (astral, mental and causal). In other words, it is the transmutation of our sexual energies. The Abrustdonis’ and ‘Helkdonis that Gurdjieff mentions in the excerpt below, taken from “Belzeebub’s Tales to His Grandson” are none other than the elements of mercury and the sulphur so spoken about in Alchemy. Excerpt on the Sacred Substance Askokin “I first learned that the destiny of beings arising on this planet of yours is chiefly to elaborate—by means of the process of their existence—the vibrations required by Nature for the maintenance of those former parts of the planet now called Moon and Anulios, when, do you remember, I became worthy personally to converse for the second time with His Conformity the then still Angel, but now Archan...

Wisdom from the Movie “Kingdom of Heaven” - (2168)

Introduction There are some movies that leave you with some pieces of advice that at point or another in your life or in the lives of others prove useful. This movie: “Kingdom of Heaven” was terrible to watch (too many battle scenes and people dying) but offered some very useful messages. In this post, I have presented a few, that have come in handy at point or another. Just to give you a bit of context, the movie is about the crusades, where the French and English were trying to defend the “Holy City” – Jerusalem from Islamic occupation. The topic of religion and God is a constant theme in the movie. It is very violent though, matching it frankly, quite awful to watch. Your Soul is in Your Keeping Alone An interesting dialogue between the French appointed king of Jerusalem and French Knight, the protagonist of the movie. Note, the king wears that metal mask because he has leprosy. King Baldwin I...
