Egypt Code Release Date

Official word from Robert Bauval’s publisher (Century/Random House) is that his much anticipated – though delayed – book The Egypt Code will be released in a few weeks time, on October 5th:

“The Egypt Code” develops the pyramid-stars correlation, challenging the long held assumption by many Egyptologists that the pyramids were tombs principally meant to house the bodies of dead kings. In addition to this theory, Robert Bauval also reveals an amazing ‘Grand Unified Plan’, which involves the wonderful temple of Upper Egypt. “The Egypt Code” is unlike any other book before it and covers the whole of Egypt’s ancient civilisation in a manner never before attempted. Much has been written as to ‘how’ the Egyptians might have aligned their monuments with such high precision, but the question that has always remained unanswered is ‘why?’- why did the ancients put so much emphasis on astronomical alignments? And what could be the function, practical or symbolic, behind these mysterious alignments?

I’m hoping to get a bit more info over the coming weeks, and perhaps an interview with Robert, so stay tuned. You can pre-order the book from Amazon US and UK.

  1. Alignment in ancient civilizations
    From today’s article about Bauval’s book, The Egyptian Code:

    “Much has been written as to ‘how’ the Egyptians might have aligned their monuments with such high precision, but the question that has always remained unanswered is ‘why?’- why did the ancients put so much emphasis on astronomical alignments? And what could be the function, practical or symbolic, behind these mysterious alignments?”

    This is simple.

    Anecdote: A few years ago I was visiting Chaco Canyon near Santa Fe, NM, where I live for the second time. I took in a “star talk” given by an openminded and knowledgable ranger who was an accomplished amateur astronomer. Inevitably the question came up, “Why all the focus on alignment? Know one really knows.” This was when I realized the answer and why it is nearly impossible for us to see it.

    If one were to study the metaphysics of any ancient people, not as an abstract head trip as moderns tend to experience spirituality, but as a practical spiritual science for the purpose of keeping one in touch with the divine nature, and if one were to acknowledge the awareness those people had of themselves as PART OF the rest of the universe and operating along with it, and if one were to understand and appreciate what “aligning” itself actually is from that standpoint and what it gives you (the sense of your own oneness with everything else out there), the answer becomes obvious:

    They built in alignment with the stars and the directions in order to stay in alignment with them. They built places on earth in order to stay in resonance with places in heaven.

    Period.

    What is today called “science” cannot see this because it is looking for a “practical” ego-centered reason. The ego-mind of “science” does not recognize the larger picture, the quantum-metaphysical nature of who we are and where we live and what for because to do so would displace the ego-mind as king of the universe and permit the heart to re-ascend the throne of human consciousness.

    1. Indeed so…
      Chaco has always been an inspiration to me also. R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz’s “The Temple of Man” may also have something to add to this. I am trying to read it now. I wonder if some of its content has been inserted into this code. Or if Lubicz’s works inspired the new book in any way?

      I too have lived in Chaco Canyon in the past. I was taken prisoner there and sent to some part of Aztec Mexico. I left my wife and child there at Chaco. It was another time and another place.

        I think it’s hard to get around de Lubicz’s work at this point. Have you read John Anthony West’s “Serpent In The Sky” which explains and goes beyond de Lubicz’s work?
