Product Description

Scientific&Medical Network

A highly readable account of Egyptian sacred culture.


Temenos Academic Review, 1997

Occasionally a book appears which is not only full of interesting facts but presents an inner meaning and significance of those facts, drawing the mind to an area of understanding which cannot be put into words. Jeremy Naydler's Temple of the Cosmos is such a book. . . .It is no coincidence that every aspect of the ancient Egyptian life upon which he touches discloses a similar quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have book for anyone interested in Ancient Egypt., 12 Jun 1996
By A Customer
The importance of this book cannot be underestimated. The author has gone to great lengths to provide the reader with the conceptual tools necessary to begin to understand the world view of the ancient Egyptian religion. From my own personal research experience, the serious student needs to step away from limitations imposed by contemporary language and the way that we view time, space and the experience of the sacred from our own culture. The author, Jeremy Nadler, has provided the conceptual tools necessary to awaken a valid understanding of Ancient Egyptian religion. For example, the author provides the reader with a very good introduction into "Egyptian magic". Until and unless one has some understanding of the importance and relevance of "magic" (within the ancient Egyptian context), the entire subject of Egyptian religion is completely closed. In another area, the author provides one of the best studies on the psycho-spiritual components associated with one's being: the Ka, the Ba, and the Akh. I was particularly impressed with the attention of the author to describe the experience of space, time, and the expression of the Sacred that are associated with ancient Egyptian worldview. Without an understanding of space, time, the Sacred context (including the ultra-critical aspects of the Temple), the Egyptian system remains incomprehensible, an alien culture that cannot be understood and which therefore can be ignored as having no direct relevancy to modern man. But the problem does not lie within in Pharonic Egypt: the problem lies within our minds. And this book is perhaps the best introduction yet written that provides keys to understanding the true foundation of Western Civilization. The only complaint (and it is minor) is that the author could have provided a more extensive bibliography for serious readers to have access.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well written, with a good presentation, I didnt always agree, 29 Dec 1997
By A Customer
Naydler writes a good solid book, and presents an interesting idea about the seemingly contradicting creation myths that seems to make sense of it all. I liked his style of writing, I just didnt always agree with the interpretation of the egyptian gods or certain religious practices.
