I am not teaching in this thread. I am distilling, embracing and listening.
The Mystery Path
Introduction
This will be a work in progress. It will be laboratory work. It will rape the fundamental tenets of dogmatic alchemy, as well as embrace all that is good in alchemy. It will draw from sources of the past, but also from a knowing derived in the present moment, in the eternal now.
There are many well-known and established paths in laboratory alchemy, or simply in alchemy... but I will start fresh with my own path. Inspired, similar, plagiarised, novel, revolutionary or ludicrous... this path could be none, or all, of those things. I do not care. I am doing it nonetheless regardless of support or discouragement.
Background on the name
Etymologically "mystery" implies the unknown or a secret, usually also connected with thelogical aspects such as religious/spiritual truth via divine revelation.
However the word "mystery" can also imply "handicraft, trade, art" from the late 14th century Latin word "misterium"... which eventually formed the word ministry i.e. an occupation. And when it is mastered it is called mastery (mastery/mystery).
And then there is "the mystic", one who has been initiated.
For these reason I will call the path The Mystery Path.
Initial tenets
Just as Paracelus decreed, dosage is the difference between poison and medicine. Alike cancel each other out, to every yin there must be a yang in order to form a unity. Everything is circular. Nothing is permanent, yet nothing dies. As above, so below and so on and so fort.
