Serpent in the Sky: The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt

Quest Books. 1993. Revised. S Soft Cover. New. 1993. 266P. This revised edition of West's revolutionary reinterpretation of the civilization of Egypt challenges all that has been accepted as dogma concerning this ancient and enigmatic land. It features a new introduction linking Egyptian science with the perennial wisdom tradition and an appendix updating the author's work with Robert Schoch in redating the Sphinx based upon water erosion. This wonderful work is based upon the research and discoveries of the famous Alchemist/Egyptologist, R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz, and gives a detailed overview of Schwaller’s ideas of the scientific system of the Egyptian Temple. Topics Include: Hieroglyphs carry Hermetic messages that convey the subtler realities of the Sacred Science of the pharaohs. Egyptian science, medicine, mathematics, and astronomy were more sophisticated than most modern Egyptologists acknowledge. Egyptian knowledge of the universe was a legacy from a highly sophisticated civilization that flourished thousands of years before. The Great Sphinx represents geological proof that such a civilization existed. Pythagoras Rides Again. Science & Art in Ancient Egypt. Myth Symbolism, Language, Literature. Heir to Atlantis.
