The Alchemist, Alchemy & Nature
Human beings, divorced from nature, and that has really been the whole story.
We split from our source, from Nature and our nature, from our selves
We created “culture” and “technology” as substitutes for living in/as our true nature.
This was the original fall, and now we live in an era that is the “triumph of materialism”, where this divorce from nature is at its absolute peak.
And the alchemist is one who learns from nature and with nature and becomes totally aligned with nature.
He perfects nature within himself.
He connects heaven and earth, man and God.
He becomes so aligned with his inmost nature and Nature that he becomes more and more divine and holy
And thus he transcends the darkness and ignorance and separation and death
And upon the final red wedding, he becomes ascended and immortal and fully joins with Father God and Mother Nature/Universe
The Alchemist is the ultimate naturalist, environmentalist, nature-lover…..
Their entire work is to study, observe, and experiment with nature
To dive deep into nature and all her secrets and mysteries - and to dive into oneself, which IS nature.
They are the caretaker of nature, the midwife of the soul
They seek the secret power of nature not for personal gain, not to become wealthy with gold - but for its own sake. To be of service to God and all.
Alchemy is a complete and total science, it(and other true spiritual paths) are the only complete and total science.
Alchemy synthesizes the material and the spiritual, the subjective and the objective, science and art, philosophy and religion, man and god, inner and outer, above and below…
It is a total Path and Way. It is a way of living every aspect of one’s self and one’s life as an expression of the Art and the Science of Alchemy.
