The Alchemical Path: Purity and the secret of names (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798278616009)

This volume focuses on the specific techniques for controlling the soul's inner chemistry. The human self is the Alchemical Vessel a furnace where base metal (the Ego/Nafs) is transmuted into spiritual gold (Tranquility/Sukoon).

The Sufi perspective asserts the core tenet of Mentalism (The ALL is Mind) in its most radical form: No God ever existed, nor was a God ever worshipped. The only reality is Allah, who is not a personal deity but the Totality of Existence, the All There Is "infinite everything." All 'Gods' are illusions created in people's minds by others. The rituals of the Qur'an are chemical processes, with necessary heat, cleansing, and mixture, governed by the immutable Hermetic Laws to align the self with the All. The ultimate goal is Tahara (Purity), a state of perfect vibrational clarity.

The central realization of this volume is that the promised reward of Paradise symbolized by the controversial Seventy-Two Virgins is not a post-mortem event, but the immediate, internal wedding of the purified soul to Divine Wisdom, attainable through these alchemical techniques here on the physical plane. This decoding is the final step in dismantling the literalist cage that binds humanity to the lower mental realm.
