The purpose of this book is to release one particular secret, which has been kept hidden for the last 12,000
years. The Philosophers' Stone, Elixir of Life, Fountain of Youth, Ambrosia, Soma, Amrita, Nectar of
Immortality. These are different names for the same thing.

Throughout history this secret has been used by a very few to extend their lives hundreds of years in
perfect health, with access to unlimited wealth, among many other miraculous properties. Some kept the
secret because they understood that the time was not right for the secret to be free for all people, but most
kept the secret out of their own jealousy, ignorance, egotism and corruption.

The Stone's history and the history of the human race up until this day is a strange story full of secret
societies, hooded cloaks, and mystical symbols. Such theatrics are childish and shallow. It's pointless to look
for the light in the shadows.

The Philosophers' Stone operates and is made by entirely natural and scientific means. Truth is always
simple, beautiful and easy to understand.

The Philosophers' Stone is real; you can make it at home. The Stone makes old people young, heals all
forms of sickness and disease, extends your life, turns any metal into gold, and more, as you will learn. This
isn't a myth or a metaphor, it's a fact.

Don't judge this book before you've read it. This is not one of those airy fairy books written in all kinds of
mystical language, filling pages with words that makes sentences but not sense. This book will make more
sense than anything you've ever read before.

The age of secrets is over. I'm writing this book in common English. There's no need for mystical language
or metaphor. This book contains no hidden meaning or codes; everything is stated plainly and directly, in
the shortest and simplest of words necessary to convey the meaning.

Spiritual alchemy only became believable when the Philosophers' Stone was no longer believed in. Prior to
the 19th century no single person ever wrote anything about alchemy being spiritual, this only started when
alchemy fell into disrepute. It was clear to many self-styled philosophers in the 19th century that alchemy
had been praised and studied by so many great minds throughout history, the only way to explain this was
to (1) either admit that they were not wise enough to work out how to make the Stone, or (2) pretend that
they were wise enough by inventing an alternative interpretation.

Spiritual alchemy appeared to make sense of the writings of the alchemists, assuming that the Philosophers'
Stone is not real, and only if one were to read selectively just a few alchemical books. The way of the
spiritual interpreters is to find any word that could sound spiritual, such as: spirit, body, living
gold, philosophical mercury, etc. They then jump on this word as evidence of their claim, even though it is
evident that these words refer to either the water or salt of the substance from which we make the Stone.

Unfortunately, many alchemical classics were adulterated during the 19th century (e.g. Corpus
Hermeticum), in order to make them sound more "spiritual". At the same time, new spiritual alchemy books
were published under the name of older alchemists, when they were in fact new publications. Although it is
easy to tell the cultural origin of books by the style of writing, these books continue to fool people and are
used as sources to support the spiritual interpretation.

The reason why gold and silver are valuable, and the most popular metals is because the Stone makes gold
and silver. Not that the Stone happens to make those metals which are valuable. They are valuable because
the Stone can make them.

This goes all the way back 12,000 years to when the Stone was first hidden from the multitude. The
Philosopher-Kings of the time chose gold and silver to be the currency for their nations since it was so
easily controlled by them. They could make it, whereas the common people could not make it. Therefore is
was a perfect currency, much more secure than pieces of paper with lots of little lines on them (like we have
now.)
