Philosopher’s stone, elixir of immortal life, universal panacea, magic mirror, magic wand - symbols of spiritual work
The philosopher's stone, the elixir of immortal life, the universal panacea, the magic mirror and the magic wand are five symbols for the work disciples must carry out in order to be worthy of receiving initiation. When they turn their selfish, petty thoughts and feelings into generous and disinterested ones, they are preparing the philosopher's stone, which transmutes base metals into gold. When they regenerate the cells in their body by living a pure life, they are distilling the elixir of immortal life. When they spread light and warmth around them, they are working with the universal panacea. When they have learned to project themselves up to the most elevated regions of the spiritual world, they receive messages from space, and objects and beings are reflected in their soul as in a magic mirror. Finally, when they have gained full mastery over themselves, they acquire the magic wand, which bestows all powers.
