Frauds Great Work

In alchemy the idea of the unified worldview plays a central part to the alchemists, even to the frauds or puffers , every part of the work was important. Not only was great care taken in all aspects of laboratory work, but attention was paid to the stars and phases of the moon dreams were recorded, intuition listened to. To the alchemist, there was nothing that was unrelated or irrelevant. There was no such thing as coincidence . Everything was part of the work. This holistic view of the world has not been lost, and is still practiced by traditional societies the world over. Only in the West have we become cut off from this way of perceiving reality, and we are arguably the poorer for it. This is perhaps why alchemy is still relevant to us it deals with a power that we need to rediscover and reclaim a secret that each of us, unknowingly, already possess.
