The Spirituality of Alchemy and SpagyriaIn a lot of books we read that the Alchemical Path is a Spiritual Path and that Spagyria not necessary is. I underline the importance of the understanding of the fact that “Everything is Spiritual”, “Spirit is contained in the Matter”. So, it is possible to say that Alchemy is the Higher aspect of Spagyria, that is a Practice less Spiritual and more Extractive. I report the very well known Axiom of Hermes Trismegistus: ************************************************************** The Emerald Table of Hermes Trismegistus True, without error, certain and most true. That which is above is as that which is below, and that which is below is as that which is above, to perform the miracles of the One Thing. And as all things were from One, by the meditation of One, so from this One Thing come all things by adaptation. Its father is the Sun, its mother is the Moon, the wind carried it in its belly, the nurse thereof is the Earth. It is the father of all perfection and the consummation of the whole world. Its power is integral, If it be turned to Earth. Thou shalt separate the Earth from the Fire, the subtle from the coarse, gently and with much ingenuity. It ascends from Earth to heaven and descends again to Earth, and receives the power of the superiors and the inferiors. Thus thou hast the glory of the whole world; therefore let all obscurity flee before thee. This is the strong fortitude of all fortitude, overcoming every subtle thing and penetrating every solid thing. Thus the world was created. Hence are all wonderful adaptations, of which this is the manner. Therefore I am called Hermes Trismegistus, having the three partsof the philosophy of the whole world. That is finished which I have to say concerning the operation of the Sun. ************************************************************* Alchemy and Spagyria constitute a very wide field of study and of practical experimentation of transmutation and of extraction of the Constituting Principle (Early or Philosophical) in the Mineral and in the Vegetable Field (sometimes also animal) but they also represent a field of human action and experimentation, because, every experience in the various Fields corresponds to Processes that happen also Esoterically. So, the Alchemist is mainly an Empiric Philosopher that observes Mother Nature's Laws and that Acts also a Practical Experimentation of it. The Alchemist is a Being that feels the deep need to understand himself/herself by the understanding of Nature and wishes to use her Gifts only for a Therapeutic Purposes, in order to re-establish the Human Balance and also in order to preserve Nature, at the same time, as he/she understood and saw that the Human Being does not feel in Balance when he goes too far from Her and, consequently, he makes Her unbalanced. ************************************************************** < Previous Page * * Following Page > |
