"Mystery schools are ancient educational institutions focused on esoteric or mystical teachings, alchemical spiritual practices, and philosophical principles. The goal is centered around personal transformation and self discovery, which often includes a hidden, secret or occult interpretation of religion. This video presentation offers some of those interpretations."

  Reading: The Secret Book Of Artephius
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 03-19-2024, 04:37 PM - Forum: Alchemy texts - No Replies

"The Secret Book Of Artephius - Ancient Alchemy Manuscript. Artephius (Artefius) (c. 1150) is a writer and alchemist to whom a number of alchemical texts are ascribed. Alchemical pseudepigraphy makes it difficult to identify who the historical Artephius may have been. His identity remains an open question. As The Secret Book of Artephius was respected and mentioned by Roger Bacon many times, Artephius' writing and alchemy is dated to around 1150."
