The following message talks more about this. Moses ground the golden statue into a powder, mixed this powder with gold, and told the Hebrews to drink it.Ī subject that is very interesting for me right now is the human body's ability to regenerate itself. Some of the events in the Book Of Exodus in the bible may involve alchemy such as the story about the golden calf. There are theories that Moses was a member and initiate of the ancient and secret Egyptian priesthood. Well that's an interesting question about whether there are people around today who still know those ancient secrets. The Philosopher's Stone: Alchemy and the Secret Research for Exotic Matter However with Farrell you have to sift through some of his other far out ideas. I guess this is some sort of substance that can disintegrate any other form of matter.įringe author Joseph Farrell says some interesting things about alchemy also.
She said alchemy was one of the subjects the initiates learned about.Įlisabeth mentioned something called the universal solvent. There's some corroboration for alchemy in another great book which is 'Initiation' by Elisabeth Haich.Įlisabeth's book is an account of a past life she experienced in ancient Egypt. If the legends are true alchemy is a secret art that is revealed to only a very few people.+ I agree the book doesn't answer all the questions about alchemy. That book about Fulcanelli is one of the most fascinating books I have ever read about mysterious subjects. Are all these references simply the imagination of our ancient ancestors? Or were their cultures that really achieved significant longevity? Perhaps there is at least some truth behind the Elixir of Long Life… In Chinese mythology, we have the ‘peaches of immortality’. In the Hindu religion, the gods would harness a milk called Amrita, a nectar that was collected and drunk by the gods to give them immortality, but forbidden for humans to drink. In Sumerian texts, we have references to the Ninhursag’s milk, which was drunk by the kings of ancient Sumer. In Egyptian mythology, Thoth and Hermes drank ‘white drops’ and ‘liquid gold’, which were said to keep them immortal. For the Greek gods it was ambrosia and nectar, in Zoroastrian and Vedic mythologies, we can see reference to a special drink known as Soma and Haoma respectively. Even the Bible refers to individuals who lived for hundreds of years, prior to the ‘Great Flood’.Īncient myths and legends from numerous cultures around the world refer to special food or drink that were reserved for the ‘gods’ and kept them immortal. The 4,000-year-old Sumerian King’s List, for example, refer to rulers who reigned for tens of thousands of years. Bernard Trevisan, an alchemist of the 15th century said that dropping the philosopher’s stone into mercurial water would create the elixir, and we have multiple cases of alchemists who claim to have found the Elixir of Life, including the infamous Cagliostro or Saint Germain.Īncient references to immortality, or extremely long life spans, can be traced back thousands of years. In medieval times, there are accounts of the alchemists looking for the philosopher’s stone, believed to be required to create the elixir but also to convert lead to gold. The search for the Elixir of Life has been the supreme quest for many. Loorya and her team are have recreated both types of elixir, which they say taste very bitter.
In addition to the Elixir of Long Life, archaeologists also discovered two bottles of Dr Hostetters Stomach Bitters, a once-popular 19 th century medicine, which contained a complex mixture of ingredients including Peruvian bark, which has malaria-fighting properties, and gum kino, a kind of tree sap that is antibacterial. The raw ingredients for an ‘Elixir of Long Life’. Loorya enlisted researchers in Germany to track down the recipe in an old medical guide, which revealed that the potion contained ingredients such as aloe, which is anti-inflammatory, gentian root, which aids digestion, as well as rhubarb, zedoary, and Spanish saffron – ingredients still used by herbalists today. “We decided to engage in our own brand of experimental archaeology,” said Alyssa Loorya, the president of Chrysalis, a company regularly hired by the city to oversee excavation projects. Now the research team have tracked down the original German recipe used to create the elixir for fending off death. The discovery included a two hundred-year-old glass bottle that once contained the “Elixir of Long Life”. Beneath a construction site for a glassy, 22-story hotel in New York, archaeologists unearthed a history of drinking, eating and lodging, along with a tradition of consuming cure-alls and potions for good health, according to a report in DNA Info.
