Robert Temple

Son raras las veces que un libro nuevo proporciona una dimensión universal de la historia del hombre. Éste es uno de esos casos. Basado en 33 años de investigación por todo el mundo y en miles de libros en varias lenguas. Robert Temple ha reconstruido una historia que permanecía olvidada: la historia de la tecnología en las civilizaciones antiguas. Totalmente desconocida para nuestros arqueólogos e historiadores, la ciencia de la óptica resultó fundamental en tiempos remotos. Generó miedo en las culturas que la emplearon, caló profundamente en sus mitologías y religiones, dando origen incluso a una teología de la luz, en la época medieval cristiana. Por fin podemos saber la forma en que los egipcios primitivos realizaron sus pirámides y otras estructuras con una precisión casi increíble.

Archaeologists have always insisted most strenuously that ancient lenses never existed and could not exist. Robert Temple''s real-life detective story started when he investigated an ancient artefact in the British Museum, formally believed to be a piece of rock crystal, proved that it had been ground to form a lens. He then went on to discover artefacts from around the world, including Greece, Egypt and some excavated from the ruins of Troy which has been misidentified, in some cases merely as jewellery. Tying in these artefacts with references in overlooked or misinterpreted ancient texts, he began to realise that these lenses had in many cases been used as telescopes. Also, to the ancients the bringing down from heaven of light to form fire - another function of these lenses - was a great mystery - perhaps the greatest. They thought they were nearly touching God. The priests who guarded the secrets of the sacred technology encoded it in myths, such as the eye of Cyclops, the eye of Horus and Prometheus myth; here Robert Temple deconstructs these myths to reveal their true esoteric meaning for the first time.

This book is an important contribution, and I hope it will open many minds. What is particularly important in it are the discussions of David Bohm, of bioplasma, biophotons, and bioelectronics. - PROFESSOR ZBIGNIEW WOLKOWSKI, Sorbonne University, Paris"Answers so many questions, scientific and esoteric, about the true nature of our reality... A seminal work... Will revolutionise how we frame reality and the thinking of everyone on this planet. Kudos to Professor Temple for striking the first match to light the fire." - NEW DAWNThe story of the science of plasma and its revolutionary implications for the way we understand the universe and our place in it.Histories of science in the 20th century have focused on relativity and quantum mechanics. But, quietly in the background, there has been a third area of exploration which has equally important implications for our understanding of the universe. It is unknown to the general public despite the fact that many Nobel prize winners, senior academics and major research centres around the world have been devoted to it - it is the study of plasmaPlasma is the fourth state of matter and the other three - gas, liquid and solids - emerge out of plasma. This book will reveal how over 99% of the universe is made of plasma and how there are two gigantic clouds of plasma, called the Kordylewski Clouds, hovering between the Earth and the Moon, only recently discovered by astronomers in Hungary. Other revelations not previously known outside narrow academic disciplines include the evidence that in certain circumstances plasma exhibits features that suggest they may be in some sense alive: clouds of plasma have evolved double helixes, banks of cells and crystals, filaments and junctions which could control the flow of electric currents, thus generating an intelligence similar to machine intelligence. We may, in fact, have been looking for signs of extra-terrestrial life in the wrong place.Bestselling author Robert Temple has been following the study of plasma for decades and was personally acquainted with several of the senior scientists - including Nobel laureates - at its forefront, including Paul Dirac, David Bohm, Peter Mitchell and Chandra Wickramasinghe (who has co-written an academic paper with Temple).

A book that verifies the existence of secret underground chambers beneath the Sphinx and demonstrates its origins as the Egyptian god of the dead, Anubis Includes an anthology of eyewitness accounts from early travelers who explored the secret chambers before they were sealed in 1926 Reveals that the Sphinx was originally carved as a monumental crouching Anubis, the Egyptian jackal god of the necropolisShrouded in mystery for centuries, the Sphinx of Giza has frustrated many who have attempted to discover its original purpose. Accounts exist of the Sphinx as an oracle, as a kings burial chamber, and as a temple for initiation into the Hermetic Mysteries. Egyptologists have argued for decades about whether there are secret chambers underneath the Sphinx, why the head-to-body ratio is out of proportion, and whose face adorns it. In The Sphinx Mystery, Robert Temple addresses the many mysteries of the Sphinx. He presents eyewitness accounts, published over a period of 281 years, of people who saw the secret chambers and even went inside them before they were sealed in 1926--accounts that had been forgotten until the author rediscovered them. He also describes his own exploration of a tunnel at the rear of the Sphinx, perhaps used for obtaining sacred divinatory dreams. Robert Temple reveals that the Sphinx was originally a monumental Anubis, the Egyptian jackal god, and that its face is that of a Middle Kingdom Pharaoh, Amenemhet II, which was a later re-carving. In addition, he provides photographic evidence of ancient sluice gate traces to demonstrate that, during the Old Kingdom, the Sphinx as Anubis sat surrounded by a moat filled with water--called Jackal Lake in the ancient Pyramid Texts--where religious ceremonies were held. He also provides evidence that the exact size and position of the Sphinx were geometrically determined in relation to the pyramids of Cheops and Chephren and that it was part of a pharaonic resurrection cult.
