A theory on philosopher's stone
Posted: Sat Jan 30, 2016 8:06 pm
Greetings to all!
Recently I've been researching the subject of the philosopher's stone. Let's do a quick walkthrough of it's abilities:
1.Changing base metals into gold
2.Used to make elixir of youth, essentially making one immortal
One thing that caught my eye is the way it is supposebly made(from wikipedia):
Make of a man and woman a circle; then a quadrangle; out of this a triangle; make again a circle, and you will have the Stone of the Wise
What if the "man and the woman" is NOT a methaphor, but the "stone" os infact...
...a human being
Think about it. It has the potential to turn a piece of earth into an intricate vase(lead => gold). To turn a lot of rocks into a majestic castle.
A bunch of metals into a machine that can use maths.
But what about immortality? Simple. By creating another human being, we extend the life of our species- effectively making us immortal(I'm sure you could also link this with reincarnating)
We are truly amazing beings
