Where To Start by Agni Spiritus Mundi
This is, as its name implies, a stone. Is said to be a kind of glass or glass scarlet red
made from a very pure substance is distributed throughout the Universe
manifested. And it is only philosophers philosopher because Sages can make it.
According to Aristotle, philosophy is the science that deals with the first principles
and first causes.
Adept in their treatises tell us that there is a substance that is the cause of the
generation, storage and destruction of all things and all beings. We say it is a spirit
because you can not see, but which we can manifest in the form of vapor or mist
, and only with him and he can make the Stone, for which we must first condense in
a water . The alchemists gave the name of " Spiritus Mundi " or Spiritus
Universalis, ie, Soul of the World or Universal Spirit.
There is no treaty to explicitly discuss its manifestation, never any Adept has dared
to reveal textually the biggest secret of Alchemy. However, it does give us small
pieces of information about the causes and principles that come into play.
With this you can give us an idea of where to start; first by " Observing
Nature ". Try toexplain how she produces things, how preserved and how destroyed,
how he tries to develop them . Then, and for purposes of power take the first step in
this science, we must ask:
Trying to answer slowly these questions and having read and re - read the treaties of
the adepts can move to experimentation in our laboratory, trying to recreate and
accelerate natural processes applying these principles and causes that we discover,
and so ever closer to the source of our Living Water that someday we can reach
it and drink from it.
The first suggestion I made to achieve our first objective, which is the condensation
ofSpiritus Mundi , was that we should observe Nature, realize how she creates,
preserves and destroys everything in our world, in the universe. Philosophers also
suggest the same in most of its treaties, try to show it to us through their eyes trying
to explain their processes.
But when one begins to observe, often we complicate our sofisticndolo thought with
scientific and academic information we have gathered during our lives, ignoring what
philosophers tell us. They say that Nature is not complicated in its processes,
everything has a father and a mother, and that something is born is necessary that
these two principles come togetherOpposites .
" Nature is the mass of all beings that make this visible world, and the principle
distinguished from God, but emanated from him, that animates it. God brought the
Nature of nothing by virtue of his Word, that he had fathered for the whole eternity."
No need to complicate both try to imagine what philosophers want to tell us about
nature because they us want to show what it is, but when you talk about things we
can not see as a quality, God, Nothing, the Word, eternity, etc., it is necessary to
philosophize and deepen it but without losing sight that Nature rejoices in simplicity.
Thus, the above paragraph tells us that nature is all that exists in this plane, giving
the characteristic of visible , thus manifested and materials , to differentiate
it from other planes that may be, also says it is a principle as it is the cause of
development of forms in this plane and adds that it is distinguished from God
because it is a differentiation of him. this is confirmed by saying that it is a divine
emanation, ie ceased to be unseen , unmanifested ,spiritual , but without But
it contains within itself the divine essence cheerleader. with this ,the author refers to
the principle of Polarity which says:
"Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; the
like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature but different in
degree ; extremes meet; all truths are half - truths; all the paradoxes may be
reconciled. "
That is, the invisible-visible, unmanifested unmanifested, spiritual-material Godemanations, dark-light, Father-Mother, Sun-Moon, etc.
" He wanted, and the verb begot a steam , a mist or a huge smoke, and imprinted
on it virtue, that is, full of strength and power spirit. This vapor is condensed into
water that the Philosophers have called universal and chaos, or simply chaos; It is
this water that the universe was formed: it is she who has been, as it is still and will
always be , first of all things matter. "
The will is potential power, and this will to exist or manifest itself is the cause of fire
or virtuethat generates the need to get out of nothing or itself its counterpart, a
vapor movement.This steam, being son of fire on the one hand, inherited the
qualities of his father. his continuous generation and saturation causes it to condense
on Water , considered the first matter of all things.
And they call it chaotic because it is undifferentiated, as yet nothing is produced from
it.However, it contains the four required to generate all properties, so the fire in it is
hot and dry, and its aqueous form is cold and wet. It is the union of opposites.
With this in mind we can go out and see how the wind is produced, how it germinates
and grows a plant, how an embryo is formed, how it can be misted, rain, snow, hail,
lightning, clouds, ocean currents, etc. And we will see that it is always the result of
the interplay of polarities and their disposal.
A gni
In Vedic culture was the son of Diash Pitri (Father of heaven) and
Pritiv (earth element or essence of matter). Therefore A gni is the
result of the union of heaven and earth, from the subtle to the dense,
spirit with matter, the Sun with the Moon, is the reconciliation of
opposites.
This fire is what alchemists have called Spiritus Mundi or soul of the
world and that through Alchemy can corporificar in a " Water does not
wet the hands ". This spirit is what animates the entire manifested
universe without it life would not exist and forms and beings could not
evolve. With this water, in its purest form , the alchemical Great Work,
the Philosopher 's Stone is made.
This site is dedicated to the study and practice of Hermetic Art, mainly
to understand and apply the principles that come into play in the
condensation of Spiritus Mundi, the first objective to be achieved for
the development of the Stone.
