SAINT GERMAIN - 1

 

The count of Saint Germain, famous alchemist, was welcomed in the European court mainly due his fascinating personality, and also his wealth whose origin was never discovered.

In 1745, when he appeared in London, Horace Walpole wrote:

“I wish still to talk you about a kind of crazy that I knew in London under the name of count of Saint Germain. He refuses to tell who is and from where came: it limits to affirm two things absolutely amazing: the first that he lives under a pseudonym; the second, that he never had relations with no woman. He sings, he play violin admirably and he composes, but does not seem to be very balanced”.

About his origin, he said: “I am of a country that never had for sovereigns men of a foreign country. Everything that I can tell about my birth is that at the age of seven years walked with my preceptor by the woodlands, and that I had the head to prize. In the eve of my escape, mom, to who I never more would see, it put in my arm this bracelet with his image”.

Some believe that he was the son of the prince Franz Leopold Rakoczy, of Transylvania, that in political contentions with Austria, it ran life danger.

In 1750, it arrived to the Paris brought by the marshal of Belle Isle, that introduced him to Luis XV and Madame Pompadour.

The marshal described this first encounter with the king that said like this:

“Whether you can make the Long Life Elixir or the Philosophic Stone, we are ready to buy the formula. Meanwhile it will be able to have a mansion and a pension, but that does not mean that I believe in her pretensions”.

Saint Germain answered: “I do not ask neither mansion nor pension, I bring everything that I need, employees and money to rent a house”.

And it put a diamond handful in a table before the king: “Wants, Your Majesty, accept these stones as a poor offer. These are some brilliant that I got to manufacture thanks to my art”.

Luis XV offered him accommodations in the magnificent Castle of Chambord, and it passed once in a while to participate in the alchemic experiences in the laboratory of Saint Germain.

The king admired him, and it did not allow that their talked with scorns or mockery of the count.

Madam Pompadour, king’s lover, also was other admirer of his presence and his conversation.

He possessed psychic faculties, and it was a clairvoyant good. He could become invisible, as some people proved to relate that at the end of his visit disappeared mysteriously.

He intended to possess the elixir of the life and the art of the transmutation of the metals.

He t could spend hours meditating and in mental concentration.

He participated in the time politics, influencing the rulers with his subtle talk.

The prestige of Saint Germain increased still more when he solved the mysterious case Dumas.

The marquis of Villaray counted the case to Luis XV, that still was child, and he conserved this mystery in his mind.

Certain day asked to the count, that was always to count their  extraordinary adventures:

“Let us see, you that knows so many things of this world and of the another, could tell me what happened to the master Dumas”?

Master Dumas, old attorney of Châtelet, got a great fortune at the age of 90.

He closed himself all nights in the higher part of his house; the family told that he studied the stars, but the neighborhood believed that he practiced the magic.

All Fridays, for about 3 hours in the afternoon, a man, mounted in a black mule, appeared and it went up to the attic, and there he stayed for several hours.

The neighbors informed the police, but was not discovered anything of illegal in such mysterious visits.

Unlike what he always did, on December 31, 1970, the horseman arrived at 10, 00 hours in the morning, going direct for the last floor.

Everything would be as of the other times, if were not the scream of terror of the master Dumas ear for his wife.

According to she declared in the inquiry, for two hours she heard a shouting of the husband and of the visitor.

About of the midday the visitor went away.

When the son of Dumas arrived with a friend, they went to the attic, breaking into the door.

However the attorney Dumas there was missing.

In the beginning the family was considered suspicion, but anything was proved.

This mystery left Luis XV curious, since his childhood, and then he asked the opinion of Saint Germain.

The count asked that it brought him a personal object from the master Dumas constant of the file of the police.

Through psychometrie he can discover what happened in the last moments of the missing.

The solution of the mystery was the following: in the corner of the floor exists a board loose, and below of them there is a hidden opening where a stairway takes to a underground room, where Dumas withdrew himself.

Very tired, he took a narcotic and he did not awake more.

- Was it the devil that visited him? said Luis XV.

- If Your Majesty becomes a Rose-Cross I will answer this question.

Madam Pompadour informed the police about the hypothesis of Saint Germain.

After investigations in the indicated local, the police found the loose boards in the floor, the stairway in snail and the subterranean room.

In the middle of chemistry and astrology instruments, they found the corpse of the master Dumas fallen in the ground.

To his side was found a cup and a flask of broken crystal.

One of the pieces of the flask still had a sediment of opium.

In this occasion Saint Germain revealed his affiliation to Rose+Cross, even knowing that Luis XV did not like the freemason.

Casanova, famous for his loving adventures, wrote:

“Instead of eating, he spoke from the principle to the end of the dinner, and I listen him with the biggest attention, because nobody talked better than he. He intended to pass by prodigious in everything, he wished to cause admiration and caused her. He employed a decisive tone, that however did not displease, because he was cultured, he spoke well all the tongues, and he also was great musician and great chemist.  He possessed a pleasant figure and he got to conquer the friendship of all the women, because at the same time in that gave them cosmetic that beautified them the skin, flattered them, not for turn them newer, because that, according to told, was impossible, but yes for protect them and to conserve in the state in which they were, by means of a water that cost him very obtain, but that offered them.  Extraordinary man and been born to be the most daring  of all the impostors, he said imperturbable, as if it was the most natural thing of this world, that was three hundred years old; he possessed the secret of the cure for all diseases, he did everything that he wanted of the nature, melted the diamonds and he made a great of ten or twelve small without the weight decreased, despite his  boasts,  of his nonsense and of his evident lies,  I was not capable of considering insolent, but also not found him  respectable.  Despite this, I found him surprising, because he surprised me”.

He presented itself always covered of magnificent jewels.

He said that he could make diamonds, the symbol of the wealth, and he liked to show his precious stones, as rubies, diamonds, pearls, emeralds, sapphires, etc.

Sometimes presented his friends with some of his precious stones of high value. 

He also had a collection of pictures “that it’s would do envy to a king”.

A minister of France, who did not sympathize or envied him, wanting to unmask him, ordered to watch him for two years to discover from where came his money, but during all that time did not discover any remittance of money for the count.

The emperor Napoleon III asked to the Department of Police the process of the count Saint Germain:; he was interested in life of this mysterious personage.

But the fire in the Palace of Tulherias, in 1871, destroyed emperor's library and the precious process.

The count of Cobenzl wrote in his memory: “the strangest man than I knew in my life.  He possesses great riches and lives with simplicity.  Poet, doctor, physicist, chemist, mechanic and painter, he is really captivating. The only thing that could censure him would be to talk a bit more of his talents and of his origins.”

In the atmosphere of the court, in the middle of the envious and selfish nobility, to accept his ideas was necessary to show wealth and to do marketing of his proper person.

He played violin and also sang, when they asked, in the meetings in which he participated; he also composed music.

Sorry that those times there was no radio and television so that he could play, sing and to give interviews with his fascinating conversation.
