The secret societies or Societies with Secrets, of all ages, have known this great secret. The Freemasons use this geometry to build sacred monuments and cities, harness the energy of the universe and reflect the stars above. They call the source of this energy the Great Architect of the Universe. Secret societies like this have preserved this ancient knowledge since the beginning of time, slowly releasing it as humanity evolves. The energy that this knowledge makes available, is so powerful that the entire universe was created by it. One who understands how to connect with this source has unlimited power.

Understanding this “force above all force” one has the ability to create these “admirable adaptions”. They are admirable because they are in accordance with nature. This is why we find nature beautiful.
The aesthetic appeal of everything, including the human form, is perceived by its relativity to the phi. Phi is the template for all beauty. This is why the planet Venus, who is astrologically associated with love, and beauty, is related to our earth according to, phi.
Its rotation around the earth creates a pentagram, a geometrical representation of phi. Eliphas Levi, the venerated author of Transcendental Magic says, “ The pentagram is the figure of the microcosm— the magical formula of man. It is the one rising out of the four— the human soul rising from the bondage of animal nature. It is the true light— the "Star of the morning. " It marks the location of five mysterious centres of force, the awakening of which is the supreme secret of white magic.
Ultimately, this great force, from which the entire universe was created is love. In India, they describe it as “sat-chit-ananda”, consciousness, being, and bliss. This is our true, original state, of Nirvana, and it can be reached only through love. This is why the alchemist can never succeed unless his heart is set on the good. He may be able to extend his life and gain material success, but he will never be at peace, which is what drives all actions until he turns to love.

Love is the key that unlocks every door, and inside is an endless hallway leading to love. The more and more we live in love, the closer we are to our goal. Love without wisdom is knowledge without light.
Nature is always emanating love, the spiral of smoke weaves between the field of love. Love is all around us.
When we learn how to resonate with this force that thrives in places of peace, we attune ourselves to love and raise our vibrations to a higher frequency. There are many ways we can attune to this force, abundant in nature, and further advance on the path to enlightenment. These secrets have been collected and passed on since the beginning of time and kept hidden in symbols and mystery, waiting to be discovered only when the time is right. These are the secrets of alchemy.
The history of Alchemy goes back to the earliest known records of Sumeria, where the gods came down to earth to "mine gold". This can be seen as a literary reference for the "gods" or higher beings bringing the knowledge of human transformation to earth. The ancient blacksmiths were considered alchemists because they knew the science of metallurgy for creating weapons and jewellery, and "turning lead into gold".

These secrets were heavily guarded and a craft tradition developed, similar to masonry. Like masonry, they used symbols to convey the knowledge of their craft, while keeping it secret to the uninitiated. Eventually, the symbols of the transformation of metals became associated with the transformation of the human body, as did the symbols of masonry.
The Egyptians were known as the greatest goldsmiths and therefore the art became known as Alchemy, which literally means "from Egypt". CORRECTION: Al = From, Chemy (Chem or Khem) = Black Land, I am from the Black Land = ALCHEMY.
The science of human transformation developed simultaneously all around the world. Each culture uses its unique methods and symbols. Collectively it is known as alchemy. This is the origin of all religions and cults. It begins with highly evolved beings imparting the knowledge of transformation, or an ordinary human discovering these secrets naturally and religion is formed from what people see as miracles. This transformation is what Hermes calls the "operation of the sun ", and it has everything to do with light.
When a human being achieves the goal of alchemy, or "creates the philosopher's stone", he creates what the Taoists call the elixir of life, and this is exactly what it is. The human has now transformed into an immortal being of light and is able to perform what Hermes calls "admirable adaptions", which are literally miracles. In China, there is a common theme of Taoist alchemists achieving immortality. In India, great yogis are known to be immortal and able to perform miracles.

All around the world are legends and myths of people attaining this state of mastery. It is outlined in the recurring pattern of the "Hero's Journey", which is the basis for all great stories.
There is a
the reason why these great stories resonate deep within us and bring up powerful emotions. It is because our higher self, which is connected to all that is, and lives within our hearts, knows the path of the hero is our destiny. The Hero's Journey mirrors the process of alchemy, which is the process of human transformation. We are on a quest for the holy grail which is the Pineal Gland. This gland in our brains is light-sensitive and is known as the third eye. When we can learn how to quiet our minds and let the light flow in naturally, we are channelling the life force that is all around us known as chi or prana.
The more life force we can channel and retain, the closer we are to transformation, and the higher our overall vibration will be. When we reach a high enough vibration, the cells in our body are transformed into light. We are now able to perceive dimensions of a higher vibration because we are able to resonate with them. We also perceive reality at a finer level and are able to perform miracles. These higher levels of perception have been documented and explored by shamans and yogis since the beginning of time. Certain psychoactive plants can give you brief glimpses of these realities and open your mind to the fluid-like fabric of the universe.

Only a true hero can be ready to achieve this great goal. You will be tested and faced with every temptation and trial of your own mind.
You must be ready to leave everything behind, including your own ego, which is the biggest challenge.
You must come to peace with everyone and everything you know and remain in a state of blissful awareness, which is our true nature.
This is known as cosmic consciousness. All great teachings and forms of yoga and meditation are ways of reaching this state. Different ways work for different people, but in the end, all roads lead to the same place, which is nothingness. The goal is to transcend the mind and return to our original state of love, where we are connected to all that is. In this place, our source of energy is inexhaustible.
Lao Tzu refers to it in this passage: "The way that can be named is not the eternal way, The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnameable is the eternally real. Naming is the origin of all particular things. Free from desire, you realize the mystery.
Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations. Yet mystery and manifestations arise from the same source. This source is the mother of all mysteries, The gateway to all understanding." He explains her qualities here, "The Tao is called the Great Mother: empty yet inexhaustible, it gives birth to infinite worlds. "

To reach this state of receptiveness to the energy all around us, we must become purified. This is the essential process of alchemy. To "separate the subtle from the gross". We must overcome our lower, animal nature and cultivate our spiritual nature.
This is the ultimate goal of life, and truly the destiny of each and every one of us. We will reincarnate in physical bodies until we achieve this transformation, and graduate to the next level. If we all knew what awaits us beyond this reality, we would stop in a heartbeat and get to work, because the payoff is greater than anything the physical world has to offer.
There are three bodies we must purify. The physical, emotional, and mental. The secrets of alchemy are the methods used to purify these bodies. When the river is clean, the water can flow. This water is known as kundalini. The kundalini is the vital energy of transformation. It keeps our body healthy and when it is raised to the pineal gland it creates a mystical experience by creating DMT in our pineal gland. This energy is created by the body through the transformation of food into blood, and blood into the cerebral spinal fluid.
The goal is to retain this fluid by not ejaculating and raising it up to the brain through yogic practices. Breathing is very important for this, and there are many methods of channeling the breath to raise the kundalini, known as pranayama.

Diet is another key factor in this process. Overeating and consuming inorganic foods can dry up this fluid and inhibit its flow. The more pure and higher vibrating food you eat, the easier it is for energy to flow through your body. The best for this is raw food. Ultimately great alchemists go without eating and survive on pure life force.
When you are energy, you don't need to derive energy from plant matter. Your energy field is unified and there is a circle of energy flowing in and around you. You become like the sun.
One of the greatest secrets of this purification and circulation is the secret of water. Distilled water is the "prima materia" or prime matter for creating the philosopher's stone. This is the closest thing to pure energy. It is purified water which is the ultimate cleaner and container of life force. All fruits and vegetables contain this distilled water, and so does your body. The body naturally distills water and excretes it in the urine. Drinking your own water is one of the most highly regarded and powerful secrets of alchemy. It will purify our body and fill you with life force leading to immortality. This has been done forever and is practiced and known in India and all over the world today.
The emotional body is purified by overcoming your negative feelings. All sadness, fear, and pain can be overcome by understanding that all is one and everything is impermanent except for love. All of this is a learning experience, and by making the right decisions we no longer put ourselves in positions where negativity can affect us. We become strong in our minds and feelings.

We feel confident and full of love and power. When we learn to harness the life force around us, we become stable and impervious to outside influences.
We know that love is the only reality and we attract love and create love everywhere we go. We have compassion for others, without expiration. We choose the higher path, in order that others may find it as well. We live by example and allow others to find their own way.
To purify the mental body we must overcome our ego. We must forget about "I" and become one with the way of nature. Hafiz says, “Even After All this time, The Sun never says to the Earth, "You owe me. " Look at What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky. ”
The true way does not claim ownership. It is selfless and filled with love. It is joyful because it is everything. It is not limited to one body or mind. It becomes all by being nothing. This is the great goal of yoga, to transcend the mind. Yoga means union. Oneness with everything. In order to do this one must learn how to relax into the natural state of being. This starts by breathing without effort.
The Taoists call this action in non-action. When you are aware and completely relaxed the energy flows into you. If you can stay in this state of reception, you are channeling light.

This is meditation, and the results are infinite. When you have a lucid dream this is a state of awareness beyond your body where you can create your reality.
The state of meditation is similar to this. When you reside in this state of the eternal love you can transcend the mind and this reality. The kundalini rises to the brain and chemicals are created in the brain that produces visions and transcendence.
The great esoteric traditions of the world have guarded these secrets since the beginning of time. They all have their different methods that have the same goals.
The goal of Yoga is Alchemy. The Taoists have some of the most revealed teachings on this. Jesus and all great saints and masters of all time have been teachers of this wisdom. Their essential message is love. We must learn to forgive and understand our purpose here in physical bodies. When we are ready we will all seek the truth. The truth is only found within. Inside we have a mirror image of the universe. The goal of the universe is returning to the source. We must return to our natural state of being in order to know the truth.
Through purification and meditation, this is achieved. The process of this transformation is known as Alchemy. Even a little bit of research into the mysterious text we call the “Emerald Tablets” will quickly leave you baffled. While the translations reveal ancient secrets once known only by Hermetic Magicians, Alchemists and other Initiates, the origins of this work are not so clear at all.

| The Emerald Tablet |
Conflicting information, confusing speculation, and heated opinion surround the Emerald Tablets text. In fact, depending on what you read or who you trust, this body of work is a mere 1,200 years old … or a whopping 38,000 to 100,000! The Tablets have been described as rectangular green slabs or plaques with exquisite, bas-relief lettering. Lettering which appears similar to the ancient Phoenician script.
And while the many translations over the centuries all source their origin from these carved emerald stones, the “original” objects are nowhere to be found … at least not to this day.
If there is a set of emerald stones carved with alchemical secrets, where might they be? Some say they’re buried within a vault somewhere on the Giza plateau. Other say they’re within the equally mysterious (and hidden) Ark of the Covenant. From Base Metal To Gold – The Transmutation of Consciousness To explain it in the most basic terms, the text of the Emerald Tablets is a summary of the principles of alchemy. It is where the “Secrets of the Philosopher’s Stone” is described.
And those secrets are all about transmutation … Transmutation, from an alchemist’s point of view, is about turning “base metal” into “gold.” How these two “prima materia” (first matter) are actually defined, however, is up to the reader … While some argue that the alchemist’s power comes from a formula which literally turns one physical substance into another (base metal to gold), modern-day mystics sometimes argue that this is the language of symbolism.
“Base metal”, in the language of the mystics, refers to base human consciousness, while “gold” refers to the transmutation of the ordinary human into a conscious creator or enlightened being.
