even self-love, offers himself as a living sacrifice in order that Christ-victory be glorified through him.
Such is a career son of God!
In closing Part I, I advocate that the seeker make any sacrifice necessary to the seeking out of the golden
possibilities that gleam through the mists of time and space as spiritual reality--the hope of every man
upon earth!
Part II
Beloved ones, just as heaven is not lost by a single thought or deed of a lifestream, so heaven is not
gained by a single thought or deed. Nevertheless, your life can become a daily round of victories
whereby each step taken aright propels you into an expanding awareness of the beauty and glory of the
newness of life. This is the resurrection from dead works of carnality into the living exaltation of the
Christ consciousness of spirituality, vesting each one so dedicated with the mission of Jesus the Christ--
one of the greatest alchemists of all time.
Speaking of resurrection, I am reminded of the words "In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across
the sea,/With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:/As He died to make men holy, let us live
to make men free,/While God is marching on."

Studies in Alchemy - Chapter 9
The newly resurrected man--in whom Christ is born, in whom there is a transfiguring glory--is resurrected
by the power of change, by the science of divine alchemy. In him the dawn of each new day takes on a
spiritual significance never before experienced. He holds each day as a chalice of opportunity to live free
and to make all men free.
Then all of nature, in sweet communion with the yearning of his lifestream to fan the fires of freedom,
extends immortal hands of felicity. The trees, the flowers, the rocks, the earth--all of the variegated
expressions of nature--bow to that man who has made himself the instrument of freedom and extend to
him the care and consideration of the Master Gardener himself.
The Father who created the paradise of God referred to in Genesis is now perceived to be in fact the
Creator of all loveliness. The sylphs of the air, the undines of the sea, the fiery salamanders of the flame,
and the gnomes of the earth are recognized as elemental spirits created to assist that one Father in
bringing forth a kingdom of supreme loveliness and beauty.
It is recognized by the perceptive alchemist that the carnal nature of man has been outpictured in part by
the nature kingdom; for the elementals, from the smallest to the greatest, are great mimics of the human
scene. As they have taken on human concepts of duality, thorns and thistles, pain and parting have been
brought forth upon the screen of life. Yet with all of the despoiling of the virgin beauty of the earth by
mankind's discord and inharmony, much that is lovely has remained, showing that the power of God is
greater than the power of the deification of evil.
Through friendship with the servants of God and man in nature, the compassionate alchemist learns to
utilize the great spiritual flow of elemental life and finds in the presence of the Holy Spirit a cooperation
with nature which formerly he did not even dream existed. Looking upon the blessed earth with the
grandeur of its rolling plains, its fertile valleys, and its mountain ranges, gazing upon the crystalline
mirrors of its lakes and flowing streams interlacing the terrain and conveying the water element in
channels of varying depth, mankind become filled with reverent wonder.
The planetary veins and arteries conveying the tireless energy of the Eternal One from place to place upon
the spinning globe of the world, the blue dome of the sky with the golden sun disk to warm and revivify
mankind, the silent night with the crystal moon and diadems of stars like unto the Pleiades--all of these
are flooded with a sense of unity which pervades all things. Nowhere is unity felt with greater meaning
than in the depths of the heart of the individual who is in complete attunement with God and his own I
AM Presence, the individualized identity of the perfection of the Creator himself.
That body of historical error composed of myriad carnal events and human misqualifications is changed
now by the alchemical fires of spiritual regeneration, and in its place the wholeness of the Real Being of
man stands forth. He is no longer a part: he is the all of creation!
These valleys and hills, these diadems of stars and far reaches of space are a part of himself. He is all of
them and in them all! With this supernal sense of ever-present wonder, man is able, as an integral

manifestation of God, to perform the miracles of the Great Alchemist and make his world the wondrous
glory of the resurrection! Old senses are passed away; all things are become new.
With that I wish to give the students a coup d'oeil into advancements which shall be forthcoming in the
world of science. I am interested in offering a preview of man's greater control of the elements in this
Studies in Alchemy, because some of our would-be alchemists can be instrumental in the production of
these new techniques or in calling them forth from the Universal.
Let us consider for a moment the development of the mind-switch. At present, lights, elevators, doors,
and many devices are activated by switches or electronically; and engineers are at work upon a typewriter
which will type phonetically sentences spoken directly into it. The mind-switch is even more
revolutionary, for it will enable men to direct mechanical apparatus and electrical functions through brain
waves by the mastery of the energy currents flowing through the mind.
Of course, many amusing situations could be construed in which two individuals might transmit divergent
impulses simultaneously. This should pose no problem, for they would but cancel each other out or the
stronger would overcome the weaker of the transmitted thought waves.
Another development of the coming age will be a camera so sensitized that it will make possible the
photographing of the human aura. This will enable physicians to discover the fundamental causes of
many physical diseases as well as the solution to psychiatric problems related to the emotions and
subconscious records of past experiences, even in previous lives unknown to the patients themselves.
The wave patterns caused by criminal tendencies and crimes recorded in the etheric body will also be
"photographed," or recorded by sensitive instruments in graphic form similar to the process now used to
record brain waves and impulses of the nervous system. Evidence of guilt or innocence will thereby be
afforded those administrators of justice who formerly relied on incomplete knowledge of events in the
penalizing of delinquent individuals.
With the advent of greater understanding of magnetism, it will be possible to so amplify the power of
magnetism as to suspend furniture in midair without any form of visible support. A new optical
development is forthcoming which will increase mankind's exploration of the submicroscopic and atomic
worlds. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
