AND TO STAND AS A VESSEL FOR THE FUTURE BRICK AND MORTOR SCHOOL, CERTIFIED TEACHING LABORATORY, AND ALTERNATIVE PRACTICE TO IMPLEMENT SPAGYRIC MEDICINE IN HEALING MODALITIES.’
Tristar — Our View Into the Future
Imagine an educational, research and therapeutic health center located in buildings that are designed to inspire and heal. At this comprehensive prevention center, patients or health seekers are free to choose any
system of therapeutics which they prefer. This three fold purpose of education, research and therapeutics is mirrored by the engineering and architectural design of the complex, which is based on a design of two
intertwining triangles, following demonstrated principles of harmony and symmetry.
The central building, incorporating a three-in-one principle, is composed of three structures with a common point of union at the center of the whole. While interlocked, these three structures are representative of
three distinct and harmonious directions, as well as three different heights. Its design provides equal access to the three outer buildings which are precisely 120 degrees from the central building at every point.

Extending outward from the central structure, the other three outer buildings form a radiating complex, utilizing space efficiently while giving the greatest access to all four buildings. The upward trend of the
outer three buildings, along a central alignment, gives a dynamic visual impact of motion. Solar ray cells are built into the roof structure which is designed for maximum solar exposure. The harmony of the triangular
structuring is repeated at every reasonable opportunity through the placement of waterfalls at the three entrances to the central building. Walkways and shrubbery enhance the threefold design in the areas leading to
each entrance.
The complex is designed to function harmoniously with its environment. Geographically the buildings will adequately and efficiently meet the needs of their planned functions of service, relating to the mountainous
environment which the glass exterior reflects. Geophysically the buildings are built to withstand the natural stresses, such as extremes of temperature, precipitation, and tremor, by structuring all materials steel
and concrete to give a harmonic balance. All recent discoveries in harmonics have been utilized to enhance the function and safety of the health complex.

The keynote of this architectural feat is unity and harmony. The reflection of these principles in the structure itself is necessary in the realization of the ideal.
A three-in-one principle of architecture is mirrored in the purposes of this comprehensive health center, where individuals can come to understand the triune essentiality of self.
The educational branch, the Paracelsus College, offers accredited teachings in Parachemistry. Here, the ancient and contemporary curative formulas of spagyrists are brought alive in the laboratory research.
Textbooks with modern interpretations of the research findings complement the use of technology (e.g. audio visual presentations using electron microscopes, etc.) are of great help to the undergraduate students in
their research. Undergraduate students qualify for resident studies, while graduate students qualify for non-resident work toward higher degrees.
The research of the College continues, as it has for twenty years, to develop formulas for the manufacturing of the spagyric pharmaceutical preparations at the Paracelsus Laboratories. Since many of today’s health
care systems are based on curative medications, due to the prevailing pathological conditions, Paracelsus Laboratories is primarily engaged in the production of preventive medications. The main purpose of Paracelsus
Laboratories is the production of spagyric preparations, which may be administered by qualified and accredited therapeutic practitioners.
The third unit comprising the Foundation is the Pharmaceutical Medical Research Foundation, known as Phameres. Here, qualified personnel familiar with the spagyric technique carry out clinical evaluation and testing
of the products of Paracelsus Laboratories as well as test the work of the Paracelsus College. Phameres makes use of all available therapeutic methods and includes practitioners such as Alleopaths, Homeopaths,
Naturopaths, Chiropractors, Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Physical Therapists, Physiotherapists and any other qualified professionals to establish the rationale of preventive therapy.
Provisions are made at the center complex to accommodate any health seeker, without imposing social, racial or financial restrictions. The clinic and the hospital offer personal assistance that gives special
consideration to the individuals needs and preferences as well as demonstrating a real concern for the total welfare of each and every patient.
This comprehensive teaching, producing prevention and health care center is called the Tristar Foundation. It is currently in the planning stage, and elements of it are in place, such as the Paracelsus College,
Paracelsus Laboratories and Phameres, which will be consolidated and integrated into the Tristar Foundation. Over the years, hundreds of students from many professions have been trained to do research and practice
the healing arts in this to-be-completed complex. Presently, these individuals are continuing the training in their respective fields of endeavor in order to be fully prepared and ready to carry out the work
encompassed in the plan of Tristar.
Others, though as yet unsure of their role in the work to be undertaken through such Preventive Therapeutic Centers to be established throughout the world, may recognize their purpose within the scope of this
project, as they are prepared in their respective fields. Since the requirements are so diversified, positions are not restricted to physical laboratory work or its various derivatives. The Tristar Foundation will
provide the training which is necessary to understand the purpose and nature of the work itself.
The concept and primary function of the Tristar Foundation centers on a three-fold approach, the evolution of the body, mind and spirit. The purpose of Tristar is to assist individuals in experiencing a life of
physical and mental well being.

Evolution of Parachemistry
Companies have been in existence since the early part of this century. The success of these remedies has been documented and under certain conditions, they are much more effective than simple extracts.
So far, only the relationship of the spagyric process to plants has been described, but minerals and metals can also be treated in the same way.
Paracelsus was the first to introduce such preparations to medicine. He started an era, which historians call iatrochemistry, a term which is still being used in the twentieth century. The term iatrochemistry means
the use of chemistry in medicine which was unheard before Paracelsus. He put his main effort into spagyrically prepared chemicals, which apparently was one of the reasons for his legendary success as a physician.
Why is it that we know so little about these processes today, which made Paracelsus, who lectured on the subject at universities and treated the nobility with spagyric preparations, the most famous physician of this
time? We may not be able to fathom all the reasons, but two facts are especially prominent in this respect:
1. Most of the literature which relates to the spagyric matter is in German, which was the predominant language of science and medicine at that time and for many years. This explains to some extent why, especially
in North America, the spagyric process is still somewhat obscure.
2. The spagyric field is complex. The writings of Paracelsus and of others who have dealt with the matter after him, are difficult to understand. Basically they contain a theoretical background and a technical
terminology hardly known today. It is not that today’s theories and terminologies are any simpler, but we are used to them and educated to work with them. Special training is necessary in order to study the spagyric
process in depth.
These difficulties have very recently led to the formation of a special scientific field called Parachemistry, which is dedicated to the investigation of the spagyric process. The healing potential of the spagyric
technique has been demonstrated for hundreds of years. However, this potential needs to be further validated by clinical and laboratory research in order to be accessible to the healing professions. In addition, more
education is needed to enable health professionals to understand and apply these principles, as well as to use these powerful substances in their practices. The spagyric process has quite a heritage. Now it is up to
our time to reveal all of its aspects for the benefit of mankind.
