Indent Elixir of life

Have you ever hear about eternal life by drinking a special drink called as elixir of life?
Maybe yes, do you want to drink it? What would you do if that elixir exists? Those questions

Introduction
were realized by people in the past, many Dynasties and Kingdoms tried to find that elixir, and
in the age of alchemist many people experimented with the lives of others. If you have an eternal
life just drinking this magical drink you could think that it’s a big opportunity because you could
live a completely different life, but is not true. Actually the human behavior is bad, the world is
being destroyed, many animals were exterminated, the reserves of waters are ending and the
climate change is accelerating. The eternal life in an alone world is not a good life, the eternity
its better with company and with a healthy environment.

Obviously, no alchemist ever got such an elixir, but they did get many deaths. One of the
most outstanding is that of the scientist Isaac Newton, who tried to create one and drank his

potion which, instead of giving him eternal life, gave him a lethal encounter. In Ancient China,
they tried to find the elixir with different results. In the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang sent an
alchemist with 1000 men and women to the eastern seas to find the elixir, and none ever
returned; the legend says that they discovered the Island of Japan. In addition, in ancient China
it was believed the ingestion of some minerals such as cinnabar, hematite and jade could
produce a life lasting longer than normal. Gold was considered especially powerful for this
process. Other substances such as mercury were also considered life extension, but most were
really toxic.

The fame of the elixir was declining as Buddhism advanced, with its idea of immortality.
The Vedas groups also considered a link between eternal life and gold. This idea has probably
been acquired from the Greeks, when Alexander the Great invaded India in 325 BC. In the books
Everlasting Tuck and in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. In the video games The Sims Body paragraph

Castlevaina (any of its versions) the elixir serves to completely cure the player. It is also possible
that India has gone to China, or vice versa. However, the idea of the elixir of life, no longer has
so much impact, because Hinduism, the first religion in India, has other ideas of immortality.

always been interested. What worries me the most is the vision one has, or one that occurs very
often, about what would be the destiny of a person who could live much more than others, and
even not die. There are studies that one can get older by a trip in space through relativity. If, for
example, genetics manages to stop the aging process, and we have not been happier than we
are now, the number of suicides would undoubtedly grow. We probably live the time we endure
living. When living is to enjoy more and suffer less, there is no doubt that we will live longer and
take longer to grow old. I do not think there is another way to reach immortality.

Therefore, let us be happier in the first place, and then we create about life and death

what we like most or convince us the most. Trying that the belief does not embitter our life;
because if because of beliefs we are unhappy, we will be walking in the opposite direction of
eternal youth, although we try to be very close but at the same time far away but if in the past
there were people who lived more than 500 years it is possible to live a little more.
