homunculus“Nothing is so secret that it cannot be made apparent…God can do everything through His wisdom and art. Likewise, we shall be able to do everything. Nothing shall resist us, neither magic nor spells; for these things are from God, and they are His arts…I under Him as far as His realm goes, but He under me in my realm.†~ Paracelsus. The alchemist Paracelsus once proposed that he had created a false human being through his science. Called a homunculus, this creature stood no more than 12 inches tall and does the work usually associated with a golem. However, after a short time, the homunculus was known to turn on it's creater and run away. The recipe consisted of a bag of bones, sperm, skin fragments and hair from any animal you wanted it to be a hybrid of. This was to be laid in the ground surrounded by horse manure for forty days, at which point the embryo would form. This supposed beast relied upon the theories of spontaneous generation. We all have this illusion of a homunculus inside the brain (that’s what "I" am), so this illusion needs an explanation. The problem of the infinite regress is avoided in our case, since the true homunculus is unconscious, and only a representation of it enters consciousness. This puts the problem of consciousness in a somewhat new light. We have therefore named this type of theory as one postulating an unconscious homunculus, wherever it may be located in the brain. The unconscious homunculus receives information about the world through the senses and thinks, plans and executes voluntary actions. What becomes conscious then is a representation of some of the activities of the unconscious homunculus in the form of various kinds of imagery and spoken and unspoken speech. Notice that this idea does not, by itself, explain how qualia arise.The concept of the unconscious homunculus is not a trivial one. It does throw a new light on certain other theoretical approaches. For example, it may make Penrose’s worries about consciousness unnecessary. Penrose (1989, 1997) has argued that present-day physics is not capable of explaining how mathematicians think, but if all such thinking is necessarily unconscious---as mathematicians have testified (Hadamard, 1945) that certainly some of it is---then although something such as quantum gravity may be needed for certain types of thinking, it may not be required to explain consciousness as such. Penrose has given no argument that sensory experiences themselves are difficult to explain in terms of present-day physics. The semen and blood are regarded as carriers of the pneumamaterial prima, or elemental matter of which, in alchemical theory, all substances were ultimately composed.Paracelsus: A man’s semen must be put into a hermetically - sealed retort, buried in horse manure for 40 days, and ‘magnetized’. During this time, it begins to live and move, and at the end of the 40 days it resembles a human form, but is transparent and without a body. It must now be fed daily with the arcanum (hidden mystery) of human blood (arcanum sanguinis hominis), and be maintained at the constant temperature of a mare’s womb, for a period of 40 weeks, and it will grow into a human child, with all its limbs developed, as normal as any child born of a woman, except that it will be much smaller. It may be raised and educated like any other child, until he grows older and obtains reason and intellect, and is able to take care of himself
