I just got it and was reading a bit. But I also got a few others I am reading first. I recommend Elixir of Immortality by Robert Cox, it gives a good background on alchemy.

As far as de Lubicz was saying in what I began reading. He is trying to impart the fact that innate intelligence is a direct path to God. Innate intelligence is another way to refer to the intuitive or heart path. The right brain path is from my point of view a dead end, it goes far but it does not go all the way. I only read the beginning but also read some articles and interview with him as well, so I know what he is trying to communicate.

Also Fulcanelli who is also considered a master alchemist was said to have stolen the manuscripts for the books he wrote from de Lubicz, which is not as bad as it sounds as de Lubicz did say it helped to promote his know;ledge which he was not willing to promote at the time.

He also says the Ancient Egyptian architecture embodies alchemical knowledge same way Chartes Cathedral is said to do.
