Sulphur - (480)

Introduction

Another very important element of Alchemy is the Sulphur. The alchemists spoke much about it and once again, they spoke and wrote about it in such a way that they could not be talking about the yellow crystalline element that is well known to the world through its many applications and uses.

It is just as important as the Mercury. The Sulphur is what makes the third type of Mercury, which results in the awakening and development of the Kundalini, and in the crystallisation of the superior bodies of the Being.

The following excerpts speak about what the sulphur is and its role in a person's own Alchemical processes.

Excerpt 1 – Sulphur

“The oriental Esoterists know that when the positive and negative currents of Mercury come into contact in the Triveni, close to the coccygeal bone, then a third force awakens by an electric induction. This force is the Kundalini.

When the Kundalini awakens in the body, it is designed as a spiral, serpentine fire that is developed in the body of the Ascetic, near the coccygeal bone. Thus, the Mercury which has been fertilized by Sulphur is the result of the mixture of this Sacred Fire, or Sulphur, with the metallic soul of the Mercury.

This mixture of Mercury and Sulphur ascends through the medullar spinal canal to the brain, awakening the superior centres of the brain. The surplus of this Mercury fertilized by Sulphur must cause the virtual creation of the existential superior bodies of the Being.

When the Mercury fecundated by Sulphur crystallizes within our psyche and within our organism with the notes Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, then the Astral body is formed. Therefore, the Astral Body is nothing more than Mercury fertilized by Sulphur.

When the Mercury fertilized by the Sulphur crystallizes by means of a second octave of Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, then it assumes the figure of the Mental body.  Therefore, the Mental Body is also Mercury fertilized by Sulphur, but, in a second octave.

When the Mercury fecundated by Sulphur crystallizes in a third octave of Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, then the Causal body is formed.

Once the physical, Astral, Mental, and Causal bodies have been created, a true human being exists, a human being with psychic and spiritual principles, an authentic human. 

Therefore, without the Astral, Mental, and Causal bodies the true human does not exist. Instead, only an intellectual animal exists.”

Excerpt from the document: “The Arche”, by V.M Samael Aun Weor.

Excerpt 2 – Sulphur

“19.         Salt is found in the urine and in the sweat.

20.          Sulphur is abundantly present in the body’s fats and in the arm pit.”

Excerpt from the book: “A Treatise of Alchemy”, chapter 20 by V.M Samael Aun Weor.

Summary

The Sulphur is not the Kundalini, the Kundalini is the result of the Sulphur mixing of the transmuted sexual energy or Mercury where that mixture ignites and turns into the Kundalini. The Sulphur is then the electricity or life force of the Divinity within us that mixes and ignites so to speak, the Mercury (transmuted raw sexual energy) to become the Kundalini.
