Product Description

Reveals the common origins of the ancient Egyptian and Mayan civilizations.

* Shows how these cultures had the ability to gaze into the heavens to predict the future unfolding of humanity and their place within the cosmic order.

* The author's revelations about the Freemasons' connection to this ancient knowledge generated a firestorm of controversy in Europe.

* By the author of the bestseller The Mayan Prophecies.

Maurice Cotterell's background as a scientist, mathematician, and engineer helped him to decipher the code of the ancient Maya, revealing the mystery of their science and religion to an extent never before possible. Using the same techniques, the author turns his attention here to deciphering the secrets encoded within the tomb of Tutankhamun. His extensive research revealed that both the ancient Egyptians and the Maya possessed a sophisticated understanding of sun spot activity and other astronomical phenomena--facts recently confirmed by modern science. Knowledge of the connections between solar patterns and human destiny allowed the Egyptians and Maya to harness the energy generated by the sun to achieve spiritual enlightenment and soul growth.

The link between reincarnation and solar energy encoded in the tombs of Tutankhamun and the Mayan Lord Pacal is a jealously guarded secret held by a select number of occult groups, including the higher orders of Freemasonry. The author unleashed a firestorm of controversy in Europe when he exposed much of the esoteric knowledge of the Freemasons, including one of the society's most carefully concealed secrets: incarnate gods like Lord Pacal and Tutankhamun have come to earth to help humans achieve spiritual enlightenment, soul growth, and individual realization as solar beings.

Revelations worth looking into!
I could'nt put this book down. I have had this book for a week and have reread it several times now. I don't accept first hand the conclusions he has arrived at. But, he definitely gives you enough evidence to research it and either prove or disprove his theories.

I have read hundreds of books in this genre and I have yet to see a book so clear and simple and to the point, such as this one. Most books are deeply vailed and coded and one has to do much research just to find the right book to substantiate the findings. Cotterell has enough references and index information that the research is made simple, and half the work is done for you. Now all you have to do is read!

Lastly, and in my judgement, a lot of what is proffered out here has turned out to be true. I am still in shock in regard to the number 144,000 and the revelation of the number 666! This information has cleared some of the questions I've had for a long time. So read and enjoy, as I am sure you will.

Astounding ideas from a keen mind
Where to begin? The book has so many ideas in it that a person could go in any direction trying to comprehend the ideas or doing further research into them. Okay, I'll begin by saying that I really loved this book.

Maurice Cotterell has courage, being a scientist that suggests doing science in areas that many condemn as "junk science" (translation: trespassing on mainstream scientists' holy ground). Cotterell did not necessarily convince me of the radical ideas he proposed, and gave some proof of. Cotterell was not writing for fellow scientists, although I'm sure he could do so very well. Among the most convincing ideas, calculating the speed of light in arcminutes rather than taking it as a constant. Among the least, personality type determined by zodiac signs. Again, it was written for the layperson rather than the specialist, although the ideas are difficult and sometimes covered too superficially. Cotterell makes the reader want to do the science to prove or disprove his theories, many of which are quite plausible.

Anyone who likes Egyptology will like the book. Much of the book covers what came out of King Tut's tomb and how everyone until now has missed the significance of the items therein. For example, included in the mummy's wrappings are 144 objects, a significant number. The history of the Freemasons directly ties in with the Egyptians and Cotterell reveals some of their secrets. The mask of Palenque (from Mayan civilization) and Tut's tomb were carefully designed by sophisticated thinkers who wanted to encode their secrets for their later use. Find out how and why in this amazing book.

A decent read for those interested in Physics, Astronomy, ancient civilizations, the arcane, esoteric groups (particularly the Freemasons), alternative ideas in science, symbolism and numbers in different cultures. econ

Incredible read...
I first heard Cotterell interviewed by Art Bell and had to purchase the book. I have been interested in all three subjects the author has researched here for some time. Brought all together under one cover, Cotterell has done a magnificent job tying the loose ends together. It was a book I couldn't put down. His expertise in mathematics as well as ancient Egypt have led me to conclusions that I would have never before thought of, and have forced me to rethink my own views of religion and my personal spiritual development. I highly recommend this book.
