DIVINE ALCHEMY
The Secret of Immortality

December 14, 2007 - Revised December 24, 2007

Dear friends,

To understand this article it is necessary for the reader to understand the writers viewpoint. Therefore for the sake of time, please consider that the creation accounts in Genesis 1 & 2 are parables.

When God refers to the word "Male" in the book of Genesis, I believe He is referring to the Spirit in all men. Therefore "Adam" represents the Spirit of God in all mankind. When "Spirit" is recorded in scripture the language uses a masculine noun. 

Conversely when God uses the term "Female" in the book of Genesis I believe He is referring to the Soul in all men. Therefore "Eve" represents the Soul in all mankind. "Soul" is recorded in scripture the language uses a feminine noun. 

Spirit is God. Soul is limited to the mind of man.

Genesis 1 is an ideal account of creation. It is creation at its absolute best. God and man are one. They walked together, talked together; they are in harmony and in complete union. They are one flesh. There is no account of a separation, a serpent, an apple or any such thing. This is an ideal creation with an ethereal atmosphere, sort of like the kingdom I imagine. It is a spiritual existance without physical, mortal trappings. It is under a divine rule and reign.

Our next account of creation is a bit different. Considering it as a parable it is God trying to relate to us the partnership we have with Him. God brings two parts to the equation, bringing woman out of man as a helpmate. This helpmate is the mind or soul of man. The mind is a helpmate in that it helps the spirit deal with "matter" or the physical mortal dimension if you will. The soul/mind reasons, builds, rationalizes, constructs, stategizes, problem solves etc.

The spirit (Adam) and soul/mind (Eve) are in glorious union with God. Then one day Eve (the mind) begins to rationalize, reason and think apart from her mate (that is the spirit that is self sacrificing, all consuming love or what is described in Corinthians 13) and is tempted by selfish thought, desired the apple, ate of it and all of a sudden the soul recognized good and evil for it became the same when the mind was not in union with perfect love. Eve began to use the mind separately from the spirit (ADAM). Our carnal nature was born (dualism) and we have struggled ever since as the mind has become our master rather than a servant. Remember Eve (the soul/mind) is the womb of creation. What it thinks it conceives, and we have been creating this world of good and evil ever since.

I believe the account of creation in Genesis 2 is in parabolic form at its best relating to us our condition as beings that perceive separation from God and have thus created our own hellish reality, creating good and evil and judging between it. This is why we are exhorted time and time again not to judge!!! We have a creative force living inside of us and when we judge, we create and we create this present age that is under the LAW. And we have been under the LAW by God's grace - the LAW is a tutor that will ultimately lead us to CHRIST. If you dont have a full understanding of what Christ is I urge you to read a short article called, "Christ is a Verb" located on this website.

"The possibility of ending duality is impossible as long as we remain in the consciousness of good and evil. We have to transcend it and enter a different consciousness, but we cannot do that if we continue to judge.

As long as we continue to judge the events in our lives, we give power to them as either good or bad, which determines the course of our lives.

To end it and then transcend it, we must step outside of this polarity."

Taken from The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life Volume 2 by Drunvalo Melchizedek

It is in and through our judgment that we create our own reality. This separation and subsequent condition between God and man is a product of the soul or ego based human. It is from this position that the entirety of scripture is written, history, parables and patterns that will ultimately lead us to union once again with God. He is not far away as Adam is the seed of the spirit resident in everyman. The soul that is not "wed" (consumed by her groom, the spirit, perfect self sacrificing love) is creating this ultimate age of duality, a creation that is rooted in carnality. In this age man uses his own rationale and is not "led of the spirit." This pattern is reflected in the physical reality of human marriage. The female (SOUL) is supposed to submit to her husband (THE SPIRIT OF GOD). Paul when exhorting husbands and wives says that he is speaking of a mystery not necessarily to them but speaking about CHRIST AND HIS CHURCH.

Ephesians 5:28- 28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. 30 For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. 31 "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." 32 This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

Recently I have been thinking and reading a little bit about alchemy. For those who dont know what alchemy is, I'll try to explain. I had seen the word but never knew what it was until recently. Alchemy as defined by Webster's below. 

Alchemy: 1: a medieval chemical science and speculative philosophy aiming to achieve the transmutation of the base metals into gold, the discovery of a universal cure for disease, and the discovery of a means of indefinitely prolonging life2: a power or process of transforming something common into something special3: an inexplicable or mysterious transmuting.

Notice the phrase speculative philosophy above meaning that this is not a proven science to my knowledge. But there sure has been a lot of discussion surrounding the art of turning base or non-precious metals into something very precious, gold, and this discussion has gone on for centuries.

*Alchemy was known as the spagyric art after Greek words meaning to separate and to join together. Compare this with the primary dictum of Alchemy in Latin: SOLVE ET COAGULA Separate, and Join Together.

I really started thinking about this process and what it might mean to us given the knowledge that in Genesis 1 male and female (soul and spirit) were not separate, male and female were together in one divine, spiritual, immortal being. We read in this first account of creation that God created them in His image, one being with both male and female attributes. 

Genesis 1: 26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Then in Genesis 2 separation took place:

Genesis 2:21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23 And Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man." 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. 

I believe it was with the intent of God to separate and bring them back together in what would be called union or marriage if you will. This marriage is eluded to many times by Jesus Christ who was the divine pattern of union with God. Jesus submitted his will to the will of His Father. Jesus said in the Garden of Gethsemane, 'Nevertheless, not my will but thy will." This separation was played out in the natural, physical patterns of male (spirit) and female (soul) so that by nature we could comprehend the mysteries of God. God speaks to us through nature and by the created things reveals to us mysteries!

Romans 1:19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse

Let's look a little further. It is said in the following scripture that Adam was not deceived but the woman Eve was...

1Timothy 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

My opinion is this: Adam was not deceived (the spirit in man) but Eve was deceived (the soul in man). Adam willingly took the fruit and entered into death - as in the lamb slain before the foundation of the "world" - the world being created under the law due to the consequences of eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. This willingness to fall with his bride is an act of self-sacrificing, all consuming love! I imagine our groom said, "I'll fall with you! for I will never leave you nor forsake you! Nothing can keep me from you! We are one! The only place where we are separate is in your mind! But I am with you! Even unto the end of the age!"

We were then separated in our mind, Adam and Eve, soul and spirit yet in one entity, being brought together again to produce something precious, the Son of God.

Consider again what alchemy means:

*Alchemy was known as the spagyric art after Greek words meaning to separate and to join together. Compare this with the primary dictum of Alchemy in Latin: SOLVE ET COAGULA Separate, and Join Together.

Below is a quote from a book called Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East Volume 1.

"Remember that youth is Gods seed of love planted in the human form divine. Indeed youth is the divinity within man; youth is the life spiritual the life beautiful. It is only life that lives and loves the one life eternal. Age is unspiritual, mortal, ugly, unreal. Fear thoughts, pain thoughts, and grief thoughts create the ugliness called old age. Joyous thoughts, love thoughts, and ideal thoughts create the beauty called youth. Age is but a shell within which lies the gem of reality the jewel of youth.

Practice acquiring the consciousness of childhood. Visualize the divine child within. Before falling asleep suggest to your consciousness, I now realize that there is within me a joy-body ever young, ever beautiful. I have a beautiful spiritual mind, eyes, nose mouth, skin the body of the Divine Infant, which now, tonight, is perfect. Repeat this affirmation and meditate upon it quietly while falling asleep. Upon rising in the morning suggest to yourself aloud, Well dear (addressing yourself by name), there is a divine alchemist within. By the spiritual power of these affirmations during the night a transmutation takes place and the unfolding from within, the spirit has saturated this spiritual body and spiritual temple. The inner alchemist has caused dead and worn out cells to fall and the gold of new skin to appear with perpetual health and loveliness. Truly divine Love in demonstration is eternal youth. The divine alchemist is within my temple, constantly coining new and beautiful baby cells. This spirit of youth is within my temple this human form divine, and all is well." End Quote 

All is well.

So, we are separated yet in one body. Isn't it interesting the there are two hemispheres in the brain? Left and right and I have even heard them referred to as east and west. Could creation be displaying to us a spiritual truth in the earth?

I have some thoughts about east and west and what they symbolize, eastern hemisphere representing the divine mystical and spiritual emphasis in the brain (or world) and the western hemisphere representing logic, rational, carnal thinking emphasis in the brain (world). I know that these two portions of the brain also represent duality especially as the left-brain (Eve) functions without and independent of the spirit (Adam). I believe these two hemispheres currently function separately but will ultimately return as one (union). When they asked Jesus when His kingdom would come (when he would return) he said as lightning flashes from the east to the west so will the coming of the son of man be. Lightning symbolizes the power of God coming to the earth. Notice that the lightning has to come from the EAST (the spirit!) to the west - the soul. 

In my limited understanding there are electrical pathways in the brain that don't crossover from one side of the brain to the other. We can have a logical thought that fires around in the left (west) side of the brain but it is independent of spiritual emphasis. Just as there is spiritual, imaginative thought firing in the right (east) part of the brain independent of the left. I have read that the separating veil (and isn't it interesting that it is called a "veil"?) between the hemispheres (corpus callosum) may be thinning and that soon we may see an evolutionary step in the making where thought patterns are not limited hemispherically. The east (spirit) will proceed the west (mind). The mind, Eve or the bride will submit to her groom, the spirit. So Jesus said as lightning flashes (originates) from the spiritual mind to the carnal mind so will my coming be (the son of man or us, into the kingdom or 4th dimension). It is also interesting that the Song of Solomon Chapter 5 speaks of a time when the bride will have her "veil" taken away.

So allow me to speculate. Why did God separate us? He knew that He would ultimately plan a "re-UNION"so why the separation to begin with? In all of creation, he created mankind unique in that we are like Him, created in His likeness, with the ability to choose or refuse him. He is a gentle lover, never forceful or coercive. He longs for His bride to desire Him, to chase after Him, to love Him with all of her soul. He wants her to choose Him. She is veiled, unable to see His majesty unlike the angels who behold his glory with unveiled eyes. But we who are veiled are then courted by His unfailing love not as eyewitnesses but one who must perceive with the heart. What groom wants a bride to love Him without choice? Therefore He created us, like Him, with the ability to choose or to be led astray by that infamous woman Jezebel whom we have suffered to teach us (Revelation 2). Jezebel (the soul!) usurps the authority of her husband (the Spirit) and thus the human is thrown on a sickbed and ultimately dies. It is a death by carnal nature!!!

But now the veil rent, the bride is coming out of her closet looking for her beloved the one who is the lover of her soul.
The Spirit is her groom. He is all consuming, unfailing LOVE. The Spirit is immortal. This immortal babe is in you. It is Christ born into humility (the manger), the submitted, humbled human soul.

You are not your mind. You are an immortal spiritual being having a temporal mortal experience. Step outside of your mind and see who you are. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Be born again. Be born from above!
