Has anyone here managed to create the magnum opus described in

>>19215214
Uhm what?

Shut This Down
RIGHT NOW

>>19215214
please do elaborate

>>19215216
If you don't understand you don't understand and therefore you have not.

You should read the Corpus Hermeticum and Emerald Tablets of Thoth

Do Not Elaborate.
There Is A Reason.
You Don't Want To Know.

any smart person would know not to tell someone not to do something, only makes it more tempting.

>>19215235
Right on, I'm working on it spiritually, but I feel like I've got a long way to go to get to the point where I can be recapitulated into the All, but I've been making serious progress

>>19215239
Any person that is truly smart would see I'm enticing on porpouse without giving actual information

Magnum opus means the great work. It is a magicians road towards uniting his conciousness with the All. To attain enlightement a magician searches his inner self for a true goal - an idea that reflects his true will, something truly worth doing. For some its their buisness, for others their rapping careers, but whatever a mage chooses to represent his path towards wisdom, by focusing his life on a single, noble(subjectively) goal he learns the secrets of life and becomes greater in all fields. From one know all.

I kind of don't in a way, I'm currently on the path and for the time being it seems like the best thing for me to do is work out the intricacies of the symbolism of the emerald tablet and other hermetic source texts on my own, I'm just curious as to how many people out there are currently pursuing the hermetic path to enlightenment and how far they are. I don't really live in a place where there are many people I can discuss these things with so why not post about it on a sumerian stone engraving forum, y'know?

I know someone that did it physically.

They ate it and all their hair fell out, nails started dying and a lot of sickness.

I also know man like that.

>>19215517
The issue with physical alchemy is that everything is communicated through a dense layer of symbolism, so if you don't read it exactly, you're gonna pretty much drink hot mercury and sulfur. Spiritual/mental alchemy doesn't really run the risk of dying or going insane, and lays the groundwork for accomplishing the first few steps of enlightenment.

>Emerald Tablets of Thoth
fake bullshit written by some new age faggot. get that faggy shit out of here, it's not hermetic at all (or as hermetic as the kybalion: aka not at all).

>>19215919
thank you

>>19216064
Some new age faggot wrote it and that's why translations have been circulating since the 1500s and was popular during the renaissance.

0) When I entered into the cave, I received the tablet zaradi, which was inscribed, from between the hands of Hermes, in which I discovered these words:
1) True, without falsehood, certain, most certain.
2) What is above is like what is below, and what is below is like that which is above. To make the miracle of the one thing.
3) And as all things were made from contemplation of one, so all things were born from one adaptation.
4) Its father is the Sun, its mother is the Moon.
5) The wind carried it in its womb, the earth breast fed it.
6) It is the father of all ‘works of wonder' (Telesmi) in the world.
6a) Its power is complete (integra).
7) If cast to (turned towards- versa fuerit) earth,
7a) it will separate earth from fire, the subtile from the gross.
8) With great capacity it ascends from earth to heaven. Again it descends to earth, and takes back the power of the above and the below.
9) Thus you will receive the glory of the distinctiveness of the world. All obscurity will flee from you.
10) This is the whole most strong strength of all strength, for it overcomes all subtle things, and penetrates all solid things.
11a) Thus was the world created.
12) From this comes marvelous adaptions of which this is the proceedure.
13) Therefore I am called Hermes, because I have three parts of the wisdom of the whole world.
14) And complete is what I had to say about the work of the Sun, from the book of Galieni Alfachimi.

The magnum opus is the philosophers stone, the philosophers stone is the culmination on your work and knowledge, in physical form this may be anything

>>19217751
Sorry for not being up on the latest faggotry. The pic refers to Emerald Tablets of Hermes. The Greeks Equated the Egyptian Tahuti/Thoth with Hermes/Mercury.

Yes

You dumb faggots didn't spend THREE SECONDS googling them to find the difference.

Here are the tablets of thoth, aka the new age bullshit written by a memer.
http://www.crystalinks.com/emerald.html
A lot of people on this board think it's a legitimate hermetic writing. It's not.

The emerald tablet of Hermes is 14 lines long.

Seriously if you fuckers can't even google this shit, how will you ever do something infinitely more complex, like the great work? commit sudoku at once.

>>19221068
I knew the short one was the legitimate one, I just mixed up the terminology because the names of works that are too old to still have their original names intact kind of don't matter that much

>>19221068
>You dumb faggot, ya didn't spend THREE SECONDS googling

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emerald_Tablet

>The text of the Smaragdine Tablet gives its author as Hermes Trismegistus ("Hermes the Thrice-Greatest"), a legendary Hellenistic[1] combination of the Greek god Hermes and the ancient Egyptian god Thoth
