What Makes Amazon Herbs
Special?
Spagyrics: Bringing the Cosmos Back into Medicine. The
laboratory table must once again become the altar -- Rudolf Steiner
The Nutrition Facts panel on my can of beans quantifying
fat, protein, and carbohydrates reveals nothing of the
beans' life force energy. We're so estranged
from our food we no longer remember its true source: sun,
water, earth, stars, cosmos. Instead, we now have laws
requiring that our foods be analyzed and labeled as the
sum of chemical parts.
Forgetting the Hippocratic commandment, Let food be
thy medicine, modern man goes to the laboratory to
engineer isolated nutrient supplements, divorced from
heaven and earth alike.
There is another way. Ancient healers in India, China,
and Egypt, more intimate with the energies of plants and
planets, evolved an herbal extraction method that captures
all the curative powers and actually elevates them above
what was inherent in the original plant. Further refined
by the Greeks, this plant alchemy or spagyrics flowered
with Paracelsus in 16th century Europe. Although today
spagyrics is little practiced, Amazon Herb Company chose
it as the method par excellence to extract the full life
spirit from its rainforest treasures.
Spagyric Extracts --
What's In Them For You?
Spagyric extracts hit you like a cosmic thunderbolt of
healing energy. Spagyrics "opens" the plant
and liberates medicine powers not available in the ordinary
extract. These medicine powers have nothing to do with
the pharmacologically active constituents modern science
seeks to standardize.
Both spagyric and ordinary extraction methods macerate
(soak) the herb in a menstrum (mixture) of water and grain
alcohol between the new and full moon. Water dissolves
the water-soluble nutrients; alcohol the alkaloids. The
extract is then pressed out, leaving the plant fiber.
With ordinary techniques, this fiber or marc is discarded,
thus losing the many minerals, trace elements and nutrients,
including glycosides, locked up in the cellulose matrix.
The spagyric method cremates the marc in an airtight,
oxygen-free kiln at 1500 degrees Fahrenheit for a prolonged
period of time (5 or 6 days). This calcination process
produces a fine white, mineral rich alkaline ash that
is then run (mixed) in a special kind of water, oscillated
at a high frequency, pressed out, and allowed to dry into
crystals.
Once this running in water process is completed a second
time, the crystalline ash is recombined (reunited in the
"chymical wedding") back into the original liquid
extract, yielding an extremely high potency, fast-acting
formula with the full synergy of the whole living herb
and of the etheric cosmic forces that created it.
Why are spagyric extracts infinitely more potent than
ordinary ones? Because they release all the nutrients
and minerals; because they work with the universal energies
of the cosmos; and because they draw upon the spagyric
practitioner's mindful intent and inspired heart.
