Ancient knowledge
« on: March 26, 2011, 11:33:59 AM »
Hi all,

I found an interesting publication, its a free download.

I'm not convinced yet it actually produces the philosophers stone , but ancient knowledge is always an enrichment of the mind.

Enjoy:

Thanks for that link Cherryman; I found some more books besides "Book of Aquarius" that will be interesting to read.

You'll have to remove the quotation marks to get the e-address link to run.

I've briefly perused the book, and from what I learned in the past, the Philosopher's Stone was deliberately created to allow one to live in immortality.  Maybe 'copper-' or 'lead-to-gold' was one goal, but also immortality was a goal as well.

well i just spent my evening reading through the "book of aquarius", and while i dont know enough to tell whether or not it would work; the author does indeed lay out the exact intructions for making the philosopher's stone.

the secret ingredient is urine.  im very new to alchemy so i dont know if thats common knowledge or not.

the urine is distilled over and over again and then heated and processed over a period of a year or longer.

then it is mixed with either silver or gold, depending on which stone you want to make.
this is a very expensive experiment, as 2 to 10 times the amount of "urine powder" produced is needed.

if all goes well you will have a certain amount of this philosophers stone, and adding it to lead or mercury will turn them to gold or silver.

if the stone is ingested, it is supposed to provide immortality.


the interesting thing about this book is that the author lays out a simple set of instructions without leaving anything to be interpreted or guessed about.

so, who is going to try this?
i am not a chemist, dont have the apparatus, and cant afford the gold required, but it sure would be neat to follow along with someone who was and did.

if anyone has info that clearly shows that this is all BS, i hope they will post it before anyone wastes a year of their life on this. LOL

I'll just say as a long time researcher of alternative healing that I've seen reports that indicate drinking one's own 'U' has cured diseases that nothing else seemed to be able to cure.  I've also been told by a master herbalist and author of a book that this is valid.  There is also the movie recently out on DVD that is a true story titled '172 hours'.  Some may remember this in the news a couple years ago when a rock climber in Utah amputated his own arm that had gotten pinned by a large rock when he was faced with the choice of dying there pinned or getting free without his arm.  He also stayed alive during that time he was stuck between large rocks by drinking his own urine after he had run out of water.  So as repulsive as it might sound there are some reasons it can actually be healing by itself.  I downloaded the book to but haven't finished it yet.  Alchemy is very intersting stuff....   

   Did anyone else get an error when downloading the PDF?  I think it's all there but it kept quitting at around 80% according to the d/l process.  PDF opened okay and goes to page 129 which is the Bibliography.

On the off-chance that there may be something to this, and as I was converting other stuff anyway, I also converted this ebook to audio files with Natural Reader.  It runs to over 4.5 hours of audio and is pretty much as is, ie. no editing, added punctuation etc. that I would normally do to make the listening experience more 'presentable'.  Still, it seems ok.  I normally convert all my audio books to 'ogg' files but as there will probably be at most 1-2 interested to begin with, I chose the ultra-compact AMR format instead - 35meg as opposed to 150meg for ogg/mp3.  Actually it's the wide-band version of the format, so it's AWB.  If you're Linux-based it should be recognised without problems (naturally!), M$ users may need to install an AMR codec.
