Utajená historie starověkého Egypta 2. - Nebeský původ starověkého Egypta

V první knize renomovaný autor a odborník na starověkou historii J. S. Gordon uvedl čtenáře do fascinující tématiky staroegyptské mystické tradice a podrobně ho seznámil s jejím sofistikovaným chápáním precese rovnodennosti a lidské evoluce ve světle božského záměru. Dospěl k závěru, že tolik opěvovaný „spontánní“ vznik egyptské civilizace před 5000 lety ve skutečnosti představoval pozůstatky starobylé celosvětově vyspělé kultury s původem v dávné Atlantidě. Svá tvrzení mistrně doložil astrofyzikálními, geofyzikálními, lingvistickými a antropologickými důkazy o zapomenutých civilizacích pod hladinou Středozemního moře a na pobřeží severozápadní Afriky. V druhé knize se Gordon podrobněji zaměřuje na jednotlivá božstva a esoterické rozdělení egyptské země, jež byla architektonicky i metafyzicky koncipována jako zrcadlový „odraz nebe na zemi“, o čemž vypovídá pečlivé umístění, orientace a hvězdné uspořádání chrámů. Svá tvrzení přesvědčivě odůvodňuje dlouhou řadou astronomických metafor a alegorií a rozbory posvátné geometrie, která figuruje v pozadí těchto velkolepých staveb. Kromě jiného čtenáře seznamuje také s esoterickým významem Sfingy a pyramid, což zakončuje geniálním rozborem vnitřní geometrie Velké pyramidy, jejíž uspořádání pod nebeskou klenbou dává tušit, že po uplynutí platónského Velkého roku se opět schyluje k velkému návratu bohů.
