| The Sacred Tradition in Ancient Egypt: The Esoteric Wisdom Revealed | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The modern world has long been fascinated by the mysteries of ancient Egypt. The code was not broken until the discovery of the Rosetta Stone in 1799. Many assumptions and guesses have been made about ancient Egypt. Egyptologists who were respected a century ago are often scorned now, and yet, much of what has become known as the Western Mystery Tradition can be traced directly to ancient Egypt.
This book clearly explains the entire mysticism of that ancient land. Rosemary Clark shows how they used ritual and sacred architecture to encourage human evolution. Seventy illustrations, twenty-two tables, and nine photos make this voluminous knowledge easy to grasp. You will learn the way the ancient Egyptians perceived life and the environment, about the four cosmological schools and various creation about the secret practices of ancient Egyptian astronomy and astrology and how to reestablish your bond with nature by using this ancient wisdom and learn the secrets of the three-fold initiation. This is not just a book of ancient history. Included throughout the book is a series of practical exercises that will allow you to put this traditional wisdom into practical use. The extensive table of contents is included here to show the range of the subject matter covered in this definitive book. |

Ancient Egypt - what a remarkable place it must have been! The boundary between the dimensions of spirit and physical form practically ceased to exist, so comprehensive was their view of the cosmos and their place in it. The vast majority of modern men and women think we live in a far better world, but we do not because most of us feel disconnected from the spiritual world. Religious fundamentalists claim and likely feel connected to something that they call the spiritual world, but whatever they are dialed into seems more like the devil to me than anything else. If you are a seeker, please read this book and incorporate its insights and wisdom into your dreams. Dare to believe and you may, for the first time in your life, feel the rays of the Sun warm your shivering soul. Mine sure warmed up. I've read it 5 times now, and each time I discover something new. Still, ancient Egypt lost its vision and its way over the millenia. One must, after all, water a plant to see it flower. Is it possible that we can find our way, if we can decipher, recover, and practice their comprehensive vision? Modern religions seem like a vast desert to me without a drop of water in sight and there is nothing new to discover in the Jewish, Christian, and Muslim tradition that was not already incorporated in ancient egyptian spiritualism and religious practices, except the extent to which modern men and women misunderstood or deliberately misinterpreted it to further their own ends. Ms. Clark peels the onion for you and in the end you will behold a whole far greater than the sum of its parts.
