Alchemy Z ~ Waking Within Blog

Dear Friends and Students, It has been my life's work since my becoming a man and learning about my path through Shamanic Initiation and rite of passage, to seek the truth and the origins of man and the spiritual experience such that others (of similar intention and commitment to truth) will learn about who they are and where they come from. Hence, as many have before me, I seek the Tree of Life in Shamanism and the Philosopher's Stone in Alchemy. If you are on this path of seeking with me, I welcome you to share as I am an open source for the information and truth and faith I have experienced. Thank you for your interest in our community and our growing Order of Sacred Spiral members. Here is some good information about the Tree of Life and other relevant items: Wiki Tree of Life: "As buds give rise by growth to fresh buds, and these, if vigorous, branch out and overtop on all sides many a feebler branch, so by generation I believe it has been with the great Tree of Lif...

Dear Friends, It has been about 36 hours since I have had a normal sleep cycle. Some of my community members and I went to see the Hugging Saint in LA on Friday night (june 19th). We were up all night while Amma hugged person after person, body after body. Our hugs were given and received at about 5am and we arrived early (like 5pm and the event opens officially at 7pm). The energy: In that room,in that place, in the company of all those people with the same intention for progress and peace there was no sleep or being tired. I had no trouble meditating and experienced (through my usual body pain and tension) a withdrawal from senses and the usual distractions. The room was loud and the was constant movement, and still I was alite with divine fire and experienced peace and purification. I am certain of my path and joyful in the answers (or rather confirmation of the inner wisdom) that I received on that night. I recall sitting where I was in the audience meditating and experiencing a gl...

Trevahr was born and raised in Southern California, has since childhood taken to science and spiritual studies. Beginning at an early age and without aid from his parents, young Trevahr began studing yogic meditation at the age of 9. Directly following his High School Education in Carlsbad, Trevahr attended college in San Diego where he started a rigorous study of Hatha Yoga and Eastern Philosophy in 2004. In 2005, Trevahr made an active decision to become a teacher of Yoga and Meditation to help others on their path to joy and awareness. While teacher training, he created a business as a Yoga Instructor and Entrepreneur. His path continued to evolve and a steady practice of Shamanic arts continued to influence his life goals and path from the years of 2003 to present. Trevahr Hughes intends daily to create new yoga practices infused with the old ways of Alchemy and Shamanic wisdom by being a channel for Source energy. Thus as a teacher of yoga, he teaches so that one class builds upon...

The first thing that is lost when you cook something is its' water content. Our bodies are between 60% and 70% water. Vegetables and fruits are loaded with water, and it is structured water that better facilitates our biological processes. Cooking denatures the proteins in our food, rendering them harder to digest and utilize. Cooking destroys 50 percent of the protein in our food. Between 50 and 80 percent of the vitamins and minerals are also destroyed. Pesticides break down into more toxic compounds, which are more easily assimilated into our bodies. Oxygen is lost and free radicals are produced. Most importantly, enzymes are destroyed when food is heated above 118 degrees. Enzymes are the catalysts of every chemical reaction in our bodies. Without them, there can be no cellular division, immune system functioning, energy production nor brain activity. No vitamins or hormones can do their work without enzymes. There are two different types of enzymes in our bodies, metabolic enz...
