Of course...

I had come across this theory before, actually it was mentioned (indirectly) in a video I posted.
Not so much stolen, rather used by somone who was Greek, but was Egyptian before he was Greek... :cg

If anyone does not want a quick Philosphy 101 read, just skip to about page 114 and read the summaries. fascinating.

Now, I am curious after reading something unrelated in there.

I was going to suggest in the Atlantis topic, that the Temples down the Nile were seats of learning.
But there appears to be too many temples for that, as I would have only expected 7

A sort of Khundalini experience, using the Nile to represent the human spine as the pupil learns in each temple, following the flow of the Nile and moving from each temple.
The final problem was where was the final seat of learning ? the Khundalini seat so to speak.
There must have been a temple on the Giza plateau or very close to the Delta, where the river looks like the open Lotus Flower.

And finally.. WHO Broke the Great Pyramid ?

Almost certainly Heliopolis, but any remains are buried deep under a busy part of Cairo, and will never be excavated. Or maybe at Memphis, which seems never to have been thoroughly excavated.
I might agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong!

Now, I like the above cogitation, very Schwaller de Lubicz (1887 – 1961)....:cool:

Just done the WIKI thing on Schwaller de Lubicz

I like this quote,
"His work is not widely accepted by Greek and Roman schools of thought". no **** sherlock !
THAT is what THEY were trying to hide and take credit for the rest...

It appears from the breif description there, that Luxor temple represents "man",
Something I pointed out to my wife a few years ago one evening from the West Bank, as if a man were lying down..

Although the orientation of the body is the wrong way around for the Khundalini being represented by the flow of the Nile..

Have you anything that I can read about this ?

I see a lot of truth in the Egyptian "religion", Mainly in the Armania religion,
but a lot of subterfuge, like the resurrection tuning fork and the machine we often see in images like this one in the tomb of Chamwes
11233.. I think the preists were charging a lot of money for unnecessary "services" ;)

Is it possible that there were just 7 temples, and the others got added afterwards ? or am I totally wrong..


As I said to my mate last night, Egyptology may well hold many commonly accepted theories, but nothing has actually been proved...

Heliopolis could be "Sirius", if the 3 Pyramids represent Orion's belt, then a very good guess, but different regarding the Khundalini experience..

Under the Spynx's Paws is my best guess. Despite it being much older than the times we are talking about, we see a common Lion Sculpture, used in big manor houses and Authorititve organisations. The Lion Guards the knowledge under it's paw...

This is not unique to the West, Eastern cultures have this too.

Maybe this is why the water is being drained from the Giza Plateau.....
It could be for other reasons in the SCA's mind, But I am convinced that something is going to come out of that plateau very soon...

The Great Pyramid would be another possibility... or Maybe there was some "Lost Temple" there.. ?

Added in Edit..
The "Lost" temple may be like Armania, a bit too obvious for the Tourist's to see, so it was destroyed and the bricks removed, scattered across the country, or even scattered across the world. Again. Like the Osiris story, although, if one views the story correctly, that seems to be more of a prediction..


Odd, the Nile represents the Lotus Flower, and possibly the Khundalini experience, and the red sea has the Ram's horn symbolism.
has anyone ever given that a thought ???
