The Spiritual Technology of Ancient Egypt
Sacred Science and the Mystery of Consciousness
By Edward F. Malkowski
Foreword by Christopher Dunn
Inner Traditions, November 2007
Since the dawn of the Age of Science humankind has been engaged in a methodical quest to understand the cosmos. With the development of quantum mechanics, the notion that everything is solid matter is being replaced with the idea that information or “thought” may be the true source of physical reality.
Such scientific inquiry has led to a growing interest in the brain’s unique and mysterious ability to create perception, possibly through quantum interactions. Consciousness is now being considered as much a fundamental part of reality as the three dimensions we are so familiar with. Although this direction in scientific thought is seen as a new approach, the secret wisdom of the ancients presented just such a view thousands of years ago.
Building on René A. Schwaller de Lubicz’s systematic study of Luxor’s Temple of Amun-Mut-Khonsu during the 1940s
and ’50s, Edward Malkowski shows that the ancient Egyptian’s worldview was not based on superstition or the invention
of myth but was the result of direct observation using critical faculties attuned to the quantum manifestation of the
universe. This understanding of reality as a product of human consciousness provided the inspiration for the sacred
science of the ancients--precisely the philosophy modern science is embracing today. In the philosophical tradition
of Schwaller de Lubicz, The Spiritual Technology of Ancient Egypt investigates the technical and religious legacy of
ancient Egypt to reveal its congruence with today’s “New Science.”
Before The Pharaohs
Egypt's Mysterious Prehistory
By Edward F. Malkowski
Bear & Company, December 2005
In the late nineteenth century, French explorer Augustus Le Plongeon traveled to the Yucatan Peninsula to study the ancient Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza. After years of research he concluded that the Maya and Egyptians were related and that civilization was far older the originally believed. He was dismissed as an academic heretic. A hundred years later...
Much of the past support for the existence of an earlier civilization before those of Egypt and Sumer has relied on esoteric traditions and mythic narrative. Using hard scientific evidence from the fields of archaeology, genetics, engineering, and geology, as well as sacred and religious texts, it is evident that these mythic narratives are based on actual events and that a highly sophisticated civilization did once exist prior to those of Egypt and Sumer. Tying its cataclysmic fall to the concurrent appearance and disappearance of Cro-Magnon man, Before the Pharaohs offers a compelling new view of humanity’s past. ... [full text]
Sons of God - Daughters of Men
Genesis: A Clash of Cultures
By Edward F. Malkowski
BOS Publishing, November 2003 (out of print)
Six thousand years ago a group of people from a growing Neolithic culture migrated south of their homeland into a fertile valley tucked within the northern peaks of the Zagros Mountains. They happened upon an existing agricultural community and were welcomed as friends. A clash of cultures ensued that sparked a revolution and the most famous story of all. It was the beginning of history for one culture, and the beginning of the end for another...
Sons of God – Daughters of Men inherits it’s title from the peculiar introduction to the story of Noah’s flood, in the 6th chapter of the biblical Genesis, where the “sons of God” saw that the daughters of men were beautiful and took them as wives. There, they are described as “heroes of old” and “men of renown”, supposedly at a time when mankind was just created, eight generations before Noah.
This rather eerie reference to seemingly divine men has been, for myself, a continuous source of curiosity. If they were so famous, why then are there no other writings of their acts and deeds? And why were their offspring and descendents referred to as giants? Never having obtained a plausible answer from anyone, I contend that something significant happened a very long time ago. And whatever happened was hidden or lost during subsequent generations. The intriguing part is that traces of their existence made their way into the most popular book in the history of civilization.
This book is about history and not theology, although it is difficult not to mention and discuss various theological ideas and trends. ... [full text]
