There are those who have managed to create the Philosophers Stone.


The ALCHEMIST realizes that he himself is the Philosopher’s Stone, and that this stone is made diamond like when the salt and the sulphur, or the SPIRIT and the body, are united through mercury, the link of mind. Man is the incarnated "Principle of Mind" as the animal is of emotion. He stands with one foot on the heavens and the other on the earth. His "HIGHER BEING" is lifted to the celestial spheres, but the lower man ties him to matter. Now the Philosopher, building his SACRED STONE, is doing so by harmonizing his spirit and his body Thru the Awakend Heart. The result is the Philosopher’s Stone. The hard knocks of life chip it away and facet it until it reflects lights from a million different angles.

"To dismiss Fairytales as unimportant, is unwise, for they often contain kernels a real truths. Consider, for example, Sleeping Beauty. The familiar theme (the story of a princess put to sleep by a wicked queen, of a prince taken prisoner, and of a kingdom lost) turns out to be an allegorical description of universal laws. Read in the exacting language of musical mathematics, the Pythagorean comma (the prince) is actually a prisoner in the dungeon, having been embedded in the subconscious part; while the New Ratio (the princess), placed at the base of the tail has actually been rendered inanimate (asleep) and thus can take a no part whatsoever in the functioning of waking consciousness; and the kingdom (malkuth) is actually lost having sunk for below the normal level. The name of the Princess, Aurora, which means "halo of light", is also no coincidence."
