For millennia, philosophers, alchemists, and, now, theoretical physicists have sought the Philosopher’s Stone, a primary material (prima materia) believed to enable the transmutation of lead to gold, among other feats of apparently limitless malleability. The phenomenon is real, according to historians, but the Stone itself has remained a riddle until now.
Transmutation through its use involves “bending time,” and a “withdrawing from these three dimensions,” as well as “a state not hitherto known,” from a leading scientist’s perspective today. Alchemists referred to the mysterious substance as the “quintessence.” Although named the Philosopher’s “Stone,” at times it has been described as a liquid, elixir, or powder whose “spiritual nature” needs confinement in matter because this strange stuff “occupies no space.”
Using Noetitek™ we were able to grasp the Philosopher’s Stone firmly enough to supply theoretical physicists with a “solid” identity along with keys to understanding its true nature, purpose, and process. The alchemists’ quintessence is a dimension of space-time-mind, a dimension discovered in PluribusOne™’s earlier research into the structure of universe and Omniverse, a dimension rendered symbolically as a cube-shaped keystone containing a sphere. To be precise, the correct identity is: the fifth dimension, a dimension of Time that serves as a vortex-like bridge between Consciousness and the four familiar dimensions of Einstein’s space-time.

Can you elaborate on your characterizing of the purpose and function of the transmutational process?

The fifth dimension may be seen as the Cosmic Blender, the Reality Factory, “the blue” from out of which all things come, the Grand Central Station of multidimensionality, the Infinite Intersection, the star-gate between the Above and Below. To say it in words the alchemists would have appreciated: Quintessence is the shaper of the flow of Presence.

How did the so-called Philosopher’s Stone get this name?

The original Philosopher’s Stone may be an actual stone/crystal inscribed with metaphysical information, probably in a coded form, or lost language, which would make it difficult to understand in a manner that readily facilitates successful usage. Yet there is no reason to believe that some alchemists were not successful in their attempts. In any case, we can be sure that no one having such information would be eager to reveal it. If it exists in someone’s (or some group’s) secret safekeeping, it would probably take an Indiana Jones to track it down.

But wasn’t the Philosopher’s Stone said to radiate light and be indestructible? That seems to me to describe a kind of radioactive ore.

Yes, it was described as radiant and indestructible. But, as an alternative to a literal take on the word Stone, this description can be interpreted analogically and metaphorically.
It is analogous to the idea that the Stone was a stone/crystal tablet because its subject, the fifth dimension, is indestructible, and the fifth dimension radiates material into the fourth dimension, which is the first of the four dimensions of space-time available to our sight and other senses. It is metaphorical because “light” can mean our inner experience of “enlightenment,” and the information processed from higher dimensions of Mind is not physical and, therefore, not a “thing” that can be destroyed.
