  Fiction: The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-11-2025, 01:00 PM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - No Replies

"The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter is the 2017 debut novel by Theodora Goss. It is the first instalment of The Extraordinary Adventures of the Athena Club series. Drawing on classic gothic and horror creations of the 19th century, such as The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, Frankenstein, "Rappaccini's Daughter", The Island of Doctor Moreau, Dracula and the Sherlock Holmes stories, Goss reimagines the works of such literary greats as Mary Shelley, Robert Louis Stevenson, H. G. Wells, Bram Stoker and Nathaniel Hawthorne from a feminist perspective, as well as the historical record of the Jack the Ripper murders."

  Video: The Garden of Eden - The True Alchemist
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-11-2025, 12:49 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"What if the Garden of Eden wasn’t a physical place, but an inner realm within us a state of consciousness, a divine inner alchemy waiting to be realized? In this video, we explore Eden as a symbolic and spiritual reality, a place where transformation, wisdom, and awakening occur from within. I share insights gleaned from deciphering ancient texts, including Hebrew, Phoenician, and Greek sources, the King James Bible, and the teachings of the Essenes. This is not a religious lecture nor an attempt to challenge anyone’s beliefs but a journey into the hidden meanings and alchemical symbolism embedded in these traditions."

  Digital Āyurveda
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 11-11-2025, 12:22 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"he paper interlinks the philosophical foundations of Āyurveda (Doṣa-Dhātu-Mala, Pañcamahābhūta, Svastha Vṛtta) and Siddha (Tridoṣa, Varma, alchemical formulations) with contemporary digital paradigms like entity-relationship modeling, blockchain authentication, and AI-based handwriting verification. It further explores Yoga’s therapeutic and preventive relevance, connecting mind-body health data with biomedical analytics through sensor-based Big Data systems. The result is a conceptual framework titled “Digital Āyurveda”—a platform that unifies ancient epistemology, healthcare innovation, and forensic reliability under a single, ethical, and scientifically validated digital ecosystem."

Temple of the Holy Grail.

"The temple is built within the body, where the three sacred forces of alchemy converge. Salt forms the vessel, Mercury moves as the current, and Sulphur ignites the flame of spirit. In their union, the Grail reveals itself as the marriage of opposites within the human soul, crowned by the lotus of illumination, a symbol of consciousness emerging untouched from the depths of matter. Here, the chalice becomes the heart’s architecture, the sacred cup through which awareness is distilled into light. The seeker who enters this temple drinks from the source of their own divine nature."
