Answer to question of August 1, 2008

Answering your question directly at this point would be a disservice to you, because it would deprive you of the experiences necessary to succeed. Franz Bardon’s writings are intended for our spiritual development, not our physical development. Therefore, if his writings are read with an immature physical intellect, which is subject to physical laws, e.g. coming into being and dying, and which applies to all of nature and everything physical, when a person dies the physical intellect dies as well. His writings and for that matter all spiritual writings have to be read with the heart, the spiritual intellect, which possesses the necessary maturity and knowledge. Everything in existence was first a thought by the spirit. But there is one more thing: the passive reader must turn into an active doer by following the instructions, otherwise, you will lack the understanding and stop and start the exercises and never progress.

Thank you.
Actually, even before your answer, I have come to think that my question was to "materialistically analytical". I have a feeling that all questions that could come to mind about instructions in Bardon's work, are either answered in these same books when looked trough eye of maturing personality, or will find answers in the course of one's development.

That is indeed true -- I've had the same thoughts, and the more I read in the Bardon books, the more it makes sense.

I need to ask some questions of Gerhard Hanswille or Deborah Brumlich regarding the original text Die Entschleierte Alchemie: though the first edition (of Alchemy Unveiled) is listed as 1991, I am presuming that this is an English translation (I have a copy) of an older German text written by Johannes Helmond (aka Archaron?). True? Could you tell me more information about the 'original' version: when was it written (or published), where is the copy housed,etc.? And/or anything else that you can share with me about the Author and/or the actual text. These are very important facts to me. Thanks.

Yes, Alchemy Unvieled is a translation. We have no other information on the author other than what is found in the introduction.
