Egypt Child of Atlantis: A Radical Interpretation of the Origins of Civilization [Paperback]

Egypt: Child Of Atlantis, A Radical Interpretation Of The Origins Of Civilization is a metaphysical look at the history of Egyptian civilization, that dares to diverge from the common scientific community's theories. Suggesting that Egyptian civilization is at least 50,000 years old instead of 5,000, and that it connected life and death in an initiatory transition rather than merely being obsessed with death, Egypt: Child Of Atlantis discusses such powerful ideas as the possibility of a worldwide prehistoric culture, Egyptian magic, the esoteric signifigance of the sphinx and the pyramids, and much more. Black-and-white diagrams highlight the key ideas explored by this bold and transcendent examination that skillfully blends Egyptian history, science, and mysticism.

I find the title a little deceiving. On the other hand it is quite a radical interpretation of ancient civilization.

This book mentions Atlantis about 3 times; once on the cover, once on the back cover, and once somewhere else.

I assume they just put the word 'Atlantis' in the title to hook readers who are interested in Atlantis and then tell them all about the roots of ancient Egyptian mysticism.

That being said, this guy is an expert on the mystical meaning of Egyptian religion, art, and architecture.

For example, the temples were designed in such a way as to capture and magnify psychic energy. Even the way the pillars were constructed was designed for this.

He discusses the layout of the pyramids and other monuments on the Giza plateau and all of Egypt really and how these relate to the stars and the entire galaxy.

This is a very sophisticated book and to really understand it the reader will benefit from a knowledge of mathematics, astronomy, quantum physics, and even alchemy.

Most of what he says goes far beyond even these subjects and gets into metaphysics.

However his knowledge in the area of Egyptian mysticism perhaps causes him to see everything from that perspective. For example he says Moses was probably not a real person and the story of the Exodus was a myth which was based on his Egyptian theories.

He's got that all wrong. Moses was a reincarnation of the god Poseidon who is associated with the sea. Thus he parted the Red Sea as it is written.

Poseidon carries the trident which is a symbol of The Holy Trinity.

I would like this author to write a book about Greek and Roman mythology. That would be very interesting I think given his knowledge of ancient philosophies.

Sadly today the state of the pyramids and temples in ancient Egypt sort of represents our world.

Originally the pyramids were covered in white limestone that contained hieroglyphics which revealed the mysteries of the universe. And they had a crystal and gold cap on top I think.

These have all been removed as people ruined everything. People have even exploded dynamite around the pyramids and the sphinx to break inside.

As the book says:

"Walking around the temples of Egypt sometimes gives one the feeling akin to that associated with the Marie Celeste mystery--as though the whole ship is miraculously sailing on although all the crew and passengers have somehow, inexplicably disappeared."

It is probably only a matter of time before terrorists blow up these monuments.

This book represents a scathing indictment of the current state of traditional Egyptological studies.

Of current Egyptology he says:

"There has truly been no forward thinking in Egyptology during the last (twentieth) century."

He calls fundamentalism an "increasingly myopic and superficial theology".
