"A spiritual journey of alchemical initiation in both Eastern and Western traditions
• Describes the initiatory stages of Kriya Yoga and Tibetan Buddhism with high-level yogis and lamas
• Shares the author’s experiences of spontaneous dream initiations, astral travels, Kundalini awakening, and an out-of-body journey through the Bardo to a past life—which led him to pursue spiritual studies in Asia
• Reveals the profound parallels between Western Alchemy’s search for the Philosopher’s Stone and the Indo-Tibetan quest for Spiritual Liberation"

"This lecture looks at the emergence of Muslim branches of Nāth yogis and presents the first stage of an ongoing research on one of them, the Rāwal, which are referred to as a group of ascetics, astrologers and itinerant healers. Their members were renowned for treating cataracts, and according to colonial sources, some regularly visited Europe in the early 20th century to perform this operation."
Fabrizio Speziale is Professor at the School of Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences (EHESS) and a member of the Center for South Asian and Himalayan Studies, Paris-Marseille. In one recent article, he examines the accounts of the alchemical techniques associated with yogis in Persian texts (“Beyond the “wonders of India” (‘ajā’ib al-hind): Yogis in Persian medico-alchemical writings in South Asia.” Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, 85, 3, 2022).

Don't let the title put you off; there's a fascinating chapter 2 by Witalij Morosow.
"The history of alchemy in Imperial Russia represents one of the most unusual and intriguing facets of intellectual life in Eastern Europe. Playing an important role in shaping new Romantic views on fundamental questions of natural history, alchemical literature in Russia around 1800 was not just associated with the search for the elixir vitae or the pursuit of gold-making. Much more importantly, alchemy provided a significant source of symbolic resources for the development of new forms of natural philosophy and theology that had not previously been widespread in Eastern Slavic Orthodox society."
