Transcendence

I was offline for one week as my mother expired on 5th June. She was 86. She was born in the constellation of Hasta. Hasta is presided by the Moon and Saturn's transit through Cancer ( the sign of the Moon ) indicated her death. She was sick for the last 6 years. She knew Astrology and told me that she will pass away during my Elarata Saturn ( I have two more years for Elarata Saturn to finish ). It was she who taught me Astrology from childhood onwards.

The ancients took the Sun as the external symbol of the Absolute Self. The Sun at dawn is the Creator Brahma At midday he is the destroyer Shiva At Sunset he is the Preserver Vishnu He is the lord of all the three realms! Brahmaswaroopa Udaye Madhyahne Thu Sadasiva Astha Kale Swayam Vishnu Trailokyam Dinakarah The Western mystics took his three manifestations as Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. Manly P Hall writes in " The Secret Teachings of the Ages" thus The philosophers of Greece and Egypt divided the life of the sun during the year into four parts; therefore they symbolized the Solar Man by four different figures. When He was born in the winter solstice, the Sun God was symbolized as a dependent infant who in some mysterious manner had managed to escape the Powers of Darkness seeking to destroy Him while He was still in the cradle of winter. The sun, being weak at this season of the year, had no golden rays (or locks of hair), but the survival of the light through

Hence the purpose of Transcendental Alchemy is to transmute our earthly nature ( base metals ) into gold ( divine nature ).
