R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz (1887-1961), one of the most important Egyptologists of this century, links the sacred science of the Ancients to its rediscovery in our own time. Sacred Science represents the first major breakthrough in understanding ancient Egypt and identifies Egypt, not Greece, as the cradle of Western thought, theology, and science.

Alchemical Opus of RA Schwaller de Lubicz,
By

This review is from: Sacred Science: The King of Pharaonic Theocracy (Paperback)
Many academics will point to "Temple In Man" as R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz's crowning achievement. I humbly, and totally, disagree. As academically pleasing (detailed and bordering on pedantic) "Temple In Man" is, "Sacred Science" is clearly his alchemical opus. He sweeps aside our modern (then maturing and fully accepted) ideas about evolution using the Egyptian tradition, then proceeds to untangle the Egyptian mythology as it embeds the true principles of human spiritual evolution. Unknown - apparently even to R. A. - the Egyptian records and mythos had encoded information considered so sacred (and therefore, secret) in their day, that the actual truth was never uttered. Even RA did not know what he'd stumbled on to. I'll leave this re-discovery up to the reader, but suffice it to say that this work is a masterpiece of transliteration, and should be required reading for anyone seriously interested in deciphering the hidden occult alchemical-astrological-spiritual lexicon of the ancient religions of the past. This knowledge was apparently only fully recorded in the Egyptian mythos and hieroglyphs, and only a man as broadly trained in modern critical scientific analysis, as well as intuitive alchemical reductionism, and as fully in possession of the "intelligence of the heart" as R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz was, could have re-discovered that which so very many utterly missed. An absolute must read, Sacred Science is a literary equivalent of prima materia.

Schwaller De Lubicz has deciphered Egyptian Philosophy,
By
This review is from: Sacred Science: The King of Pharaonic Theocracy (Paperback)
This is a short jog into Rene's greater work Le Temple d'Homme. Sacred Science is a guide to the metaphysical world harnessed by the pharaoh. One will quickly agree with the well recorded research and analysis expertly layed out in this work. This book casts shadows on other books released about Egyptain Theocracy. This book traces the origin of Heliocentricity much farther back then Capernicus and sites the Pythagorian understanding behind the Cathlic "Heretics" of the middle ages. And consequently traces Pythagoros back to his roots, his training by the priests of the temples in Egypt for 15 years! This Book is filled with amazing revelations is dry and techincal, possibly aimed at the acedemic community, but If you enjoy Ancient History, Cause and Effect, Ancient Egypt or Greece, mythology or are a skeptic you will love this book.

Scwaller is a Sage,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sacred Science: The King of Pharaonic Theocracy (Paperback)
Having spent over 30 years in Egypt studying the ancient monuments and symbols, and living the culture, this book is better researched than any similar publication. Schwaller provides an exceptionally insightful look into the minds and hearts of the ancient Egyptians. He reveals a way of life that is so integrated with the cosmos and centered on the inner journey of enlightenment few Egyptologists will understand it unless they too practice the esoteric science of personal transformation.
It is only in the present, relatively materialistic age, that we separate science and the sacred as foreign to one another - but the ancient Egyptians and Schwaller knew a deeper harmony. For anyone that is seeking to understand the mindset of long lost higher cultures Sacred Science is a key resource.
