To the Ancients, construction was inseparably associated with religious rituals. The main goal of any type of sacred buildings was to interact with the special energy quality of that place. My Architectural background and my extensive research based on practical energy quality experiments using BioGeometry measurement techniques, gave me an insight and confidence to propose this new theory about the unique qualities and amazing knowledge behind the construction of the pyramids of Giza (Fig. 50).
We saw earlier how the Ancients were able to locate places that had a powerful beneficent energy quality, and marked them with megalithic Menhirs and Dolmens. In the case of Menhirs, the material, dimensions and layout played an important role. It entered into resonance and amplified the special energy quality. This was developed further with mathematical precision in the Obelisks of Ancient Egypt.
The Dolmen, which consisted of two megalithic stones erected upright with another huge stone placed horizontally above them to form a sort of gateway or open-ended chamber, was built on underwater stream crossings which created an energy vortex. Dolmens were in most cases oriented slightly south of the East direction. This orientation enhanced the special energy quality, and created a subtle energy axis passing through the Gateway, Arch, or open-ended chamber. The concept of the ‘Eastern Gate’ has played a very important role in temples and city walls through history down to modern times.
By covering the Dolmen with an artificial mound the energy emission inside and outside the Dolmen was enhanced. Some of the round mounds in Europe have a stepped round core made of several levels of artificial clay bricks that were then covered with earth (Fig. 51). The development from Dolmen to Pyramid must have taken place in Egypt much earlier than in Europe, and must be attributed to an earlier prehistoric civilization in Ancient Egypt. This development led to the Stepped Pyramid of Saqqara (Fig. 52), the first stone building in recorded history, and culminated with the Great Pyramid on the Giza Plateau, attributed to Pharaoh Khufu of the 4th Dynasty.
The Giza Plateau must have been a sacred site on which Menhirs and Dolmens stood among other megalithic edifices which were used for sacred ritual by a prehistoric civilization. We must therefore look at the Great Pyramid as the last phase of building which had been going on in that area for several millennia. We must understand that the main object of ritual is the sacred spot itself, while the buildings among other things are man’s interaction with this sacred energy quality. The pyramids we see today are just the last remnants of this sacred interaction.
In our research, we have done a subtle energy survey of the Pyramid Plateau at Giza, and detected the wide energy Grid Lines of extremely beneficent energy (Fig. 53). These wide energy Grid Lines are also called ‘zones’ because they are wider than the normal Grid Lines of the Hartmann, Benker, and Curry earth energy grids. We also found that the pyramids were built over crossings of multiple zones and Ley Lines resulting in very strong energy power spots. The sides of the pyramids are aligned on the Hartmann Grid Zones, which are accurately orientated to the cardinal point. The location of several underground levels of tunnels and chambers would be based on the Earth Grid Line pattern, with the most important chambers on the power spots and the levels aligned with horizontal planes of the grid. This was the usual practice in antiquity, which was confirmed by our subtle energy surveys.
The ancient sacred buildings were mainly built for ‘immortality in the afterlife’. After identifying a location on earth which had a very strong sacred energy quality, the ancient builders also took into consideration the building’s astronomical orientation. So, not only did the Ancient Egyptians consider the location of sacred energy on earth, but they also strove to detect and map the locations of similar ones in the sky (Fig. 54). The connection with the sacred places in the sky was used to empower the sacred energy of the power spot on earth. These connections created a three-dimensional grid of sacred energy quality.
There is evidence that ancient architects designed the sky connections in the buildings through highly developed mathematical and astronomical sciences.26 They constructed a sophisticated system of shafts (Fig. 55), chambers, and openings in order to link their buildings to the sacred places in the sky (Fig. 56), achieving a resonance that created virtual cosmic Ley Lines. This was their pilgrimage route for the soul in the afterlife, or during out-of-body experiences, just as they used the Ley Lines on earth as pilgrimage paths that connected sacred places on earth, as is common in shamanic practices all over the world27. The Ancient Egyptian priests also identified the manifestations of sacred energies in the environment at certain times of the year, or the day, and performed certain rituals to interact with them.
Some of those rituals were also related to the starting time of the building.
The Ancient Egyptians had very advanced geometrical measurement devices in the form of scepters, staffs, and pendulums to detect energy qualities (Fig. 57). We find such sophisticated detection instruments depicted in their artwork held in the hands of NTRs (gods) and Pharaohs. Those devices were used within the framework of a very advanced science of quality through which they interacted with the powers of nature.
The sacred power spots in the sky were regarded as heavenly locations (Fig. 54). The Ancient Egyptians used several methods of connection through resonance with the heavenly locations in the sky such as the areas marked by the Milky Way, the Pleiades, the Circumpolar stars, Orion and Sirius. We have been able to confirm this theory through measurement using our own modern subtle energy quality detection instruments of BioGeometry.
The alignments of the pyramid shafts to certain star constellations in heaven would be such a method of communication that can be used in rituals. Once the alignment is done at a certain time and resonance is achieved, the building is permanently connected to the cycle of that star. The BG3 subtle energy quality can then be detected in the shafts all the time. It fluctuates however in strength according to the cycle of stellar alignments.
These shafts were made for energy connection and not penetrate all the way into the chambers; they just have to channel the energy into the pyramid. Through their dimensions, they act as closed sound boxes tuned to resonate with the special energy quality of the sky location. The length of the shaft was tuned to the wavelength that represented a harmonic proportion that would resonate with the energy quality of the sky location and the stellar constellation in it. The height and width of the shaft as well as any angles or dents also played an important role, as the subtle energy quality was produced through the proportions of height and width to the length of the shaft the same way the sound boxes of musical instruments are designed. The so-called ‘stone doors’ that we find in the shafts were calculated to divide the shafts in specific spots to make them resonate with multiple wavelengths. This method of resonance through the fixing of certain wavelengths, along with the orientation to certain sky locations at specific times in the beginning of the cycles, ensured the permanent resonance of energy quality through multiple methods.
The shafts brought the energy from the stellar constellation into the internal chamber, taking the Dolmen concept to a new level of sophistication. To the ancients, the buildings were like musical notes within the overall composition of a symphony that included the energy anatomy of the location on earth, and also of locations in the sky, as well as time and natural cycles, to create the ultimate sacred energy quality through time and space. To the Ancient Egyptians this sacred energy quality became so natural and normal that they interacted with it in their daily life, and used it to bring harmony into every aspect of their environment visible and invisible. No activity of any type could start without it.
Another important criterion was the choice of time connected to the construction of certain parts of the pyramid. The points of transition in any energy system, as in the beginning and end of cycles, are points of multidimensional qualities where connection to other dimensions are possible, and at which the least effort is needed to achieve the strongest effect within the whole energy cycle. The laying of the cornerstone and the beginning of construction as a whole, would thus be initiated when the stellar constellations were in ideal alignment with the shafts or openings that were specifically devised to create the connection. The Ancient Egyptians also identified the occurrence of the sacred subtle energy quality at certain times of the year or the day, and performed rituals to interact with them. The building connected in this way to the earth’s energy anatomy and the sky locations, became like a living subtle energy system. One can compare that to the planting of a seed at the right time in the cosmological cycles to enhance its life energy.
When the Ancient Egyptians used astronomical calculations of the cycles in the sky, they already knew what they were looking for in terms of the energy quality needed to achieve universal harmony. They gave the stars marking those locations a special place in their scientific-religious worldview. As an example, when the rising of Sirius on the horizon would coincide with the beginning of the flood of the Nile, the harmonizing sacred energy quality in the water was greatly enhanced, thus bringing prosperity to the land and its people.
The Ancient Egyptians used several methods to achieve resonance with locations in the sky. Reproducing sky patterns on earth in a form of mirroring produced resonant connections. This mirroring of the sky on earth is a very practical way of bringing to the earth the sacred energy quality found in certain stellar regions. It is achieved by creating a pattern of sacred energy spots on earth with the same pattern as a stellar configuration in the sky, to create an Earth-Sky resonance.
Our research and experiments in the detection of BG3 subtle energy quality are a practical way of showing the importance of those locations in the sky. In BioGeometry, we work according to a Physics of Quality, which is based on the concepts of Ancient Harmonics, in which the energy quality of shape plays a major role. Similar shapes in certain proportional relationships can enter into resonance and exchange information on a subtle energy quality level across great distances and even beyond the confines of time and space.
The Ancient Egyptian existed in a multidimensional state that was not based on superstition as many tend to believe, but on a very practical relationship with the forces of nature that enhanced his daily activities. Through this understanding, we will be able to uncover the secrets that lie in the ruins of this great civilization, and maybe revive them in a modern form to create harmony in our global society and our environment.
Our detections in the sky would be in accordance with the rituals and beliefs in Ancient Egypt, which were always based on the harnessing of the sacred energy quality that permeated their everyday activities to enhance them in a practical way. It was therefore no surprise to find out that our measurements of locations in the sky turned out to be in some accordance with Ancient Egyptian beliefs and showed a certain correlation with the findings of Bauval and Hancock (authors of The Orion Mystery and The Egypt Code) and their theories on the stellar alignments of the pyramids and their relation to Orion, Sirius, and the Milky Way. The crucial differences lie in that we identify larger areas in the region of these stellar bodies and not the star itself, which was used as a marker for the sacred area. We further postulate that the Ancient Egyptians mainly depended on a practical method of energy quality detection besides their advanced astronomical knowledge.
The Ancient Egyptians believed that the soul, which they called the ‘Ba’, could travel out of the body and come back. They practiced a form of astral travel linked with initiation rites as practiced in many shamanic traditions. They would access the sacred power spots on earth by physically going to them, and access the sacred power locations in the sky in non-physical travel, as in out-of -body experiences or as a soul journey after death.
The Time Chambers in the Pyramid
In our BioGeometry research we found that the sacred power spots, whether on earth or in the sky, are locations that manifest the BG3 subtle energy quality. We have seen how the multidimensional properties of this energy quality open a doorway to other realms and enhance communication with other dimensions. This doorway beyond our time-space dimension has made those power spots sacred to many cultures from prehistoric to modern times.
Let us examine this multidimensionality a bit closer to try to understand how different cultures interacted with it in their buildings throughout history. We have shown how they enhanced and amplified the BG3 subtle energy quality of the power spot through the erection of menhirs, dolmens, obelisks and pyramids on them. We have also shown how they connected the power spots through straight paths to create two dimensional and three dimensional grids of BG3. Did ancient civilizations know more about communication with different time-space dimensions than we suppose?
My research into the subtle energy interactions of the megalithic dolmen has shown that it is a very special shape that can enhance the BG3 and project it in a linear form in the direction of its orientation. The dolmen was sometimes covered with a circular near-hemispherical mound that later evolved to become a pyramid. The pyramids were built with bricks or sandstone with some of the special core elements in granite. The chambers inside were built in granite because of its structural and resonant qualities. The granite chambers were very powerful multidimensional communicators. They opened the doors to the past and future, as well as to other realms and allowed soul travel from and to them. Could we not then consider the pyramids of Egypt as time machines? Recent research certainly seems to support this possibility.
Whether these time chambers were used as burial chambers or initiation chambers does not really matter, as it is their time-space configuration that is of great significance. Some Pharaohs like Senefru, of the third dynasty around 3000 B.C., had three pyramids built in the region of Sakkara south of the Giza Plateau, and as far as we know, was not buried in any of them. Most probably those Pharaohs were buried in Upper Egypt.
The use of those chambers as time machines would have needed special rituals. To the uninitiated this state could blow the mind and become such a traumatic experience that it could have permanent psychological effects. When the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte came to Egypt in the year 1798 A.D., he spent a night in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid. When he emerged, he is reported to have been extremely shaken and shocked by something he had experienced within. When asked what had happened in there, he refused to discuss it and insisted that the incident never be spoken of again. A friend who visited him in his final days, asked Napoleon to tell him the long-held secret of that night in the King’s Chamber. Napoleon started to speak about it, but then stopped and said, “What’s the use? It was so strange that no one will believe me anyway.”
Not everybody who spends a night in there has such experiences. Some have had very special spiritual experiences. In his book, ‘A Search in Secret Egypt’, Dr. Paul Brunton recounts such an experience of a night in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid. His experience was somewhat like Napoleon’s. However, the type and intensity of experience usually depends on the person’s subconscious and his initial preparation. Our research has shown that the energy in the King’s Chamber becomes very negative and harmful between sunset and midnight and is beneficial from midnight till dawn. This explains the horrific encounters with malevolent spirits in the first part of the night followed by the manifestation of benevolent spiritual beings in the second half.
Recent scientific research in Russia has shed new light on the phenomenon of ‘Time Chamber’. The Russian astrophysicist and astronomer, Dr. Nikolai Kozyrev (1908-1983), who has a moon crater and an asteroid named after him, triggered a controversy among his peers at the time with his theory about the existence of a new form of energy impregnating the whole universe. These energy waves are intermeshed with time-space in such a way that they formed some sort of ‘Time Waves’. According to Kozyrev, all objects emit and are impregnated by these waves and could only be detected by their piezo-electric effect on some crystals. These time waves, however, can be reflected 100% by aluminum or granite and could invert their polarity if reflected by mirrors.
Kozyrev discovered these time waves by chance when he accidently left his special mirror telescope overnight focused on an empty location in the sky. What he found recorded on film was a sharp image of the Andromeda Galaxy where it actually is at the present time28. This was very puzzling as we would normally see the Andromeda Galaxy in a telescope in the location in which it was two million years ago, because it takes that much time for light to travel that distance to earth. The image of Andromeda on the telescope was where it will be seen by our conventional telescopes two million years from today! It seemed impossible to get this image at that place now. It is like getting an image from the future, although in reality it is the present that we only see in the future. Several other experiments were conducted with different calibrations, and pictures were obtained of Andromeda in the past, present, and even in real future positions. All images were very clear except for the ones in the future, which showed only 70% of the data. He deducted that the missing 30% were due to other future events whose effect could not be accessed yet.
Two other Russian researchers, Kaznacheev and Trofimov, performed several experiments in 1990 to study Kozyrev’s phenomenon of time waves. They built a ‘Kozyrev Mirror’ which consisted of an aluminum cylinder in which a person can be enclosed. The aluminum reflected all time waves from outside so that they did not reach the inside, and kept the time waves emitted by the person inside trapped within the cylinder. The inner surface reflected back the time waves emitted by the person to form a highly concentrated environment in the center of the tube. Time waves inside the Kozyrev Mirror were supposedly traveling in both directions, past and future. The persons who spent some time in this Kozyrev Mirror reported dramatic changes in perception taking them beyond our time-space constraints.
It is tempting to conclude that the Kozyrev Mirror could just have been a granite chamber in an Ancient Egyptian pyramid built on a power spot of the sacred Plateau in Giza!
I have done my own BioGeometry research on this phenomenon and found that the inside of the Kozyrev-Mirror had a strong BG3 subtle energy quality. A Kozyrev Mirror placed on a power spot would have a greatly enhanced multi-dimensional BG3 effect. I then applied some of the BioGeometry Design Principles to enhance the effect of the Kozyrev Mirror by forming the base to become a BG3 power spot. I came up with an elliptical, egg-shaped, circumference of the aluminum or granite base of the chamber so as to have the BG3 quality concentrated within the whole base as if it was placed on a power spot. It is fascinating how futuristic cutting edge modern science is in some aspects catching up with the Pyramids of Ancient Egypt that keep revealing new secrets as time goes by.
The multi-dimensional properties of the pyramid chambers could shed some light on what kind of functions were performed in those chambers beside their use for burial and the travel of the soul of the deceased in the celestial boat to their heavenly abode in the sky. Some of the other functions that come to mind could be initiation ceremonies involving out-of-body travel along the 3D grid formed by the power spots on the earth and in the sky. This journey could be taken into different time-space dimensions. This was an ancient worldwide shamanic practice taken into a higher degree of sophistication in Ancient Egypt as can be seen by their detailed descriptions of the afterlife. Other practices involving communication with disembodied entities from other dimensions could also have taken place. These chambers could also have been used to access information from other dimensions or even to store information in higher dimensions. The hall of records with the secret knowledge of an ancient civilization could be in another dimension that is only accessible to the initiated.
Where is Multidimensional Egypt Now?
The loss of awareness of the abstract nature of the sacred energy which transcends any particular belief system or religion results in the loss of harmony and balance, and has a devastating effect, and a loss of universal multidimensional identity. When people lose this awareness of the spiritual energy quality in its abstract form, they identify only with the buildings erected on the sacred spots related to their own religion. They are pulled into the material symbolism that the building holds in their belief. They accept as sacred their own religious buildings, and do not acknowledge the sacredness of the buildings of other religions. This is the kind of focusing on the material dimension that can lead towards idolatry and fundamentalism, and creates separation and strife between religions. On the other hand, awareness of the spiritual energy in its abstract form could be a unifying force that promotes peace through recognition and respect for all religious places of worship, independent of one’s belief.
Our ignorance of the nature of the spiritual energy quality in sacred power spots caused us to make deplorable errors in relocating temples, such as Abu Simbel in Egypt, to higher grounds, without properly choosing a spot of energy quality similar to that of the original location. Furthermore, in our effort to sanitize natural water resources that got polluted by the sewage infrastructure, we have managed to transform sacred lakes, as in Karnak in Egypt (Fig. 58), to ‘swimming pools’ without a trace of the original sacredness of the natural source. Obelisks have been moved from their sacred energy power spots to ‘dead’ locations. In the past century, some of them have been moved and are still standing in the main squares in capitals of Europe and the United States. In Paris, Rome and Washington, D.C., for example, they have been strategically placed in energy power spots as these cities were originally planned with the Earth-Sky energy connection in mind.
In our research on the planning of the city of Cairo in Egypt, we have found evidence that this ancient knowledge was applied. It is therefore no coincidence that we find religious buildings through the ages (ancient temples, synagogues, churches or mosques) located at energy nodal points throughout the city. It is our greatest hope to revive and connect the sacred power spots and reactivate the energy quality of the city with the way of the sacred, through awakening awareness of the invisible spiritual light that we measure as BG3, and by recreating methods of bringing it into everyday activities. This, I believe, is the only way that multidimensional Egypt will be restored again.
Imagine if we decided to build a replica of The Cheops Pyramid today. Building is my profession, so trust me when I say that today, with all our advanced technology, we would still be seriously challenged! So how did these people thousands of years ago manage such an amazing achievement? Archeologists suggest that they built ramps in order to raise over two million blocks of stone to a height of forty stories. Suppose they built ramps to raise the stones to the higher levels; the stones still had to be placed on rollers or sleds, and the ramp would have to be covered with a hard stone surface so that the rollers or sleds would not sink under the heavy weight. Building a ramp that way for every row of stones in the pyramid is a huge engineering task in itself, which would have been just as impressive as building the pyramid itself! Let us assume that this was how it was done. How can we explain the precision with which these stones, weighing so many tons each, are put in place in such a way that a razor blade cannot fit between them? Suppose they put oil on the stone and pushed it in. How many people would they have needed? How can more than five workers fit in the available space to push it in place? Some of the stones are granite and some are sandstone. Positioning the stones would probably have chipped a few, but as it turns out none of them were chipped. What is even more difficult is that in some places the stones are interlocked. We could easily do interlocking with a game of Lego but not with blocks of several tons! Obviously, there comes a point where it becomes impossible for us to comprehend how they did this amazing engineering feat. It is strange, however, that the Ancient Egyptians left thousands of illustrations depicting everything in their life, but did not document anything about the building of the pyramids. They definitely had knowledge and techniques that they were not willing to divulge to the uninitiated.
If we research some cultural traditions that have survived through the ages, we might get some clues about what type of additional methods they could have used. Maybe they had the knowledge and techniques to reduce the effect of gravity? In Ancient times, ritual chanting and prayers were part of the building process. In the southern part of Egypt until now in construction, whenever manual labor is being used, the workers carrying the heavy bricks and materials on their shoulders chant ageless rhythmic chants as they climb up the scaffolds and structures. Another example is the chants they sing when they are pulling cargo sailboats along the banks of the River Nile, when there is no wind to move the boats. It is well known in Egypt that there are still people living in the area of Luxor who have preserved some of the Ancient Egyptian knowledge, and can perform feats that are beyond our modern comprehension. Could the chanting and prayers have played a supporting role, both in moving the stones to the building site, and in placing the them properly? I am not suggesting that they sang the stones into place! The chanting, however, could have been a supportive element.
A seer from Luxor, Yacoub Al-khousamy, the same one I mentioned in my journal, told us a story related to our topic of anti-gravity. He talked about how many times in his youth he had witnessed his father perform levitation feats where a huge heavy stone, for example was rendered weightless and could then be easily lifted and placed in the right location. Local tradition in the area, however, as I have been told, attributes this knowledge and skill to Khoja Yacoub himself.
One recently documented example that illustrates this connection of sound, prayer and anti-gravity comes from Spain. In the early 16th century, St. Teresa of Avila, the renowned mystic, was known to have repeatedly experienced states of levitation while in the rapture of prayer; St. Teresa seemed to hit an anti-gravity key through her prayers. There is definitely a connection between some aspects of spiritual energy and gravity.
The concept of anti-gravity is a field in which, I believe, shape can play a very effective role. Intrigued by this phenomenon, I have conducted research on certain shapes that might have an anti-gravity effect under certain circumstances.
We only have to look as far as our bodies to examine this concept. One can truly but wonder how we do not feel the weight of our body organs that are basically hanging in there? Why are they not falling? Why don’t we ever feel the weight of our ears for example? How can a pregnant woman carry that weight for so long? We had twins, my wife and I, and all through the pregnancy I kept looking at her in wonder as her tummy grew bigger and bigger and she still functioned perfectly! I imagined carrying that much weight strapped around my waist! That got me going. The shape of the womb particularly during pregnancy seems to have an anti-gravity effect that minimizes the load on the body (Fig. 59).
An amazing discovery that was made during my research was the detection of the subtle energy quality (BG3) in the water surrounding the baby in the womb that seemed to have the same quality components of the water found in sacred power spots. No wonder the mother is revered in all religions and cultures. During pregnancy the mother is actually a walking sacred power spot! The sexual act, from the energy quality point of view, could then be looked at as a sort of pilgrimage that the male takes to a sacred place. That might explain the sexual rituals that we see depicted in sacred art in many cultures.
There seems to be a relationship between the sacred energy quality we label ‘BG3’ in BioGeometry and gravity. The anti-gravity effect can be achieved through prayer, spiritual practices, sounds and shapes, creating a very strong subtle energy quality.
An Ancient Egyptian Airplane Model
My old time friend, Dr. Khalil Messiha, (a Physician, Professor of Anatomy at the Da Vinci Art Institute, and amateur Egyptologist), discovered at the Egyptian Museum a figurine of a bird that had aerodynamically shaped wings, fixed on the top of the body like a glider plane (Fig. 60).
Dr. Khalil Messiha was intrigued by the vertical position of the tail. Birds don’t have a vertical tail. This shape of the tail and the wings made it look more like a glider plane. At the museum, Egyptologists had categorized it as a bird figurine. The typical models of birds as found in Ancient Egyptian artifacts had painted feathers and legs. But this model had neither. The shape had characteristics not found on any other bird figurine. Dr. Messiha sent a picture of the model to an aeronautics lab in America. The report that came back from the lab stated that this could be the model of a slow-flying cargo plane, and that it had the essential aircraft features needed for it to fly.
Any form of art usually represents something that we are familiar with. We may give a toy car to a child; he will love it because it is a model of a real car. The question is whether the Ancient Egyptians had the knowledge that enabled them to build some sort of flying models or actual machines? I believe that maybe when they drew the gods flying in the sky, these could be slow flying objects similar to the model Dr. Messiha discovered. So the Egyptians may very well have mastered some forms of levitation and discovered the sciences of aero-dynamics and anti-gravity.
Building is a Spiritual Exercise
How were the great Egyptian monuments built? About ten years ago, archeological excavations uncovered the ‘workers’ city’, a highly organized settlement where all those who were associated with the building of the Giza pyramid lived and worked. The digs uncovered an infrastructure system of drainage, sewage, paved streets, houses, workshops, bakeries, medical facilities and all the other services that such a community would need.
In Egypt, the River Nile flooded the land for several months. During this period of inundation, the farmers came from all over the country to work in the construction of sacred buildings. Others, professional stonemasons and master craftsmen, worked all year round under the supervision of project masters. To the Ancient Egyptians, construction was inseparably associated with religion and so it was an honor and a spiritual quest to work in the building of their Pharaohs’ pyramids and temples; this is evidenced in excavation findings and workers’ graffiti found inside the Giza monuments themselves. This is contrary to the notion that the pyramids were built by slaves driven by the whip that was presented by Hollywood in many productions, the most prominent being ‘The Ten Commandments’ by Cecil B. De Mille.
Some contemporary scholars attempt to suggest that the Jews were the forced labor behind the building of the pyramids, an absurd assumption since historically, the Jews were first mentioned more than 1000 years after the era of pyramid building. This era dates back to the third millennium before our time. Actually, there existed a Jewish colony on the Elephantine Island and its surroundings near Aswan in Upper Egypt since 500 B.C. records show that this colony existed for more than a thousand years. At its center was a Jewish temple donated by the Pharaoh.
To the Ancient Egyptians, the construction of sacred buildings was considered a spiritual exercise in itself, and so the energy quality of all involved in it (priests, architects, artisans, artists and workers) was very important. Knowing that every line they drew or stone they touched would be forever impregnated with the energy of all those participating, they had to be prepared for the spiritual work they were to embark on. A workman would have to go through purification ceremonies and prayers before participating in any work. If, for example, he touched a stone and impregnated it with negative energy, he could compromise the subtle energy quality of the whole building.
In Ancient Egypt, when they cut a stone, they marked its polarity coordinates in its original location. They believed that the energies of the earth that had been flowing through it in a particular direction for thousands of years, needed to be respected. The stone must then be placed in that same orientation to the coordinates, so as to withstand the test of time (and we wonder why any renovations we do now do not survive a decade!). To them, each stone was alive, it had consciousness and awareness. When the workers were on a very high level of spirituality through the use of certain rituals, they could affect the energy quality of the stone. The Ancient Egyptians integrated the powers of nature in their practical everyday technology.
This spiritual preparation is still practiced by some builders in modern times. For example, the great architect Antonio Gaudí, who built monumental buildings in Spain, is known to have fasted and prayed for about forty days until he felt he was spiritually cleansed and ready to embark on his quest of building the Roman Catholic Basilica, ‘La Sagrada Família’ (The Holy Family) in Barcelona, Spain, from 1882 to 1926, (Fig. 61). To this he dedicated the last fifteen years of his life and joked about its long construction time saying: “My client is not in a hurry.”
The spiritual practice of building can best be seen in the history of the ‘Kaaba’. The holy central mosque of Islam in Mecca, which has been rebuilt several times since the Patriarch Abraham resurrected it from its buried foundations. The records document the names of every person who carried a stone and put it in place; his tribe and lineage, the number of the stone and its place in the building. Only those believed to be the most devout from every tribe received this honor.
Today we underestimate the power of rituals. We give them symbolic value and often reduce them to the status of traditional practices. We attribute the rituals to symbolism and psycho-social values, and do not see the practical aspect that they could have in harnessing the subtle energies of the powers of nature into everyday activities. We think we can do without them; we have our modern scientific worldview in which ancient rituals have no place.
Since antiquity, religions have always combined spiritual experiences with exact rituals. It is known that spiritual connection causes an over activity of the so-called trance-like state of right-brain perception. This over activity could produce transcendental experiences that some might mistake as hallucinations. This state can produce frontal lobe disturbances in the brain leading up to seizures in extreme cases. Hence, the importance of rituals and prayer: to adjust the energy imbalance in the brain. Spiritual experiences arise through a connection with a higher dimension. Proper connectivity of this sort needs some form of fine tuning to the source that is achieved through specific forms of ritual. When we pray for example, it is important to strictly abide by the dictates of the rituals, as rituals are very well-designed to correct the energy imbalance in the human brain and create a balanced connection to higher levels of spiritual reality.
How can we differentiate between hallucinations and an actual spiritual connection? This can be done by using biofeedback devices or radiesthesic methods of subtle energy quality measurement. If we are connecting with the proper rituals, we would detect the ‘One Harmonizing Subtle Energy Quality’ of BG3 through its three components: The Higher Harmonic of Gold, Ultraviolet, and Horizontal Negative Green subtle energy qualities. (In an epileptic seizure for example, we do not find the BG3 subtle energy quality).
In the Sufi mystical tradition, we learn that there is a special rhythm in the heart connected with all the forces of nature. We have inside of us all the rhythms of the universe, manifested harmonically in the rhythm of the heart. This is the mechanism of higher extrasensory information exchange in the universe that the mystics refer to as the ‘knowledge of the Heart’. The Sinoatrial (SA) node in our hearts, which is the primary pace maker generating the rhythm of the heart, reflects the energy balance of the whole person on all levels. In every one of us there is a slight imbalance in this rhythm indicating, in a mystical Pythagorean sense, the imperfection of humanity. This imperfection can be corrected temporarily through the connection with the ‘One Harmonizing Subtle Energy Quality’ which will bring the BG3 into our heart. We can actually measure the occurrence of this BG3 energy quality in the heart rhythm, indicating a spiritual connection. With the proper rituals in connection with sacred spots and sacred times, we can synchronize with a large number of rhythms manifesting the BG3 energy quality. In the BioGeometry Harmonic System we can find those rhythms and use them to bring inner and outer harmony. When we correct this rhythm of the heart, we correct all the other rhythms of all the energy functions of the body because they are emanations from that rhythm.
It is interesting to examine the activity of the left and right sections of the brain separately; when we listen to music, we find a higher level of activity in the right-brain section. If however, we start to think analytically, we find a higher level of activity in the left-brain section. If we are involved in any form of spiritual exercise, the activity of the front lobe of the right-brain hemisphere rises (Fig. 62).
When epileptic patients go into a seizure, the activity of the frontal lobe of the right-brain section also rises. The person may say afterwards that he saw an angel or that ‘God has spoken to him’ or that he had some kind of spiritual experience. In his book, ‘Phantoms in the Brain’, Dr. V.S. Ramachandran29 referred to this frontal lobe of the right section of the brain as the ‘God Spot’, a term coined by Persinger working in the same field of mind research (Fig. 62).
We cannot conclude from such experiments that the concept of God and spirituality in general is only an illusion produced by an overactive frontal lobe in right-brain hemisphere, as some scientists like to make us believe. We know that many spiritual exercises sometimes cause similar experiences. We also know that some people who go into very strong power spots or sacred places may have light convulsions similar to epileptic seizures.
Let us look deeper for a more comprehensive view. If we measure the subtle energy quality in the frontal lobe of the brain during spiritual activity, using a brain wave tracer and instruments of Physical Radiesthesia, we will detect a frontal lobe disturbance. How can that be, and how can we correct the disturbance? Although the physical results and the brain measurements of both types of experiences are the same, in Ramachandran’s case, the seizure produces the experience, while in the case of spiritual practices it is the experience that produces the visions or even the convulsions. We need to look at a hidden energy aspect in rituals that produces a harmonizing balancing effect in the otherwise disturbed frontal brain lobe, resulting in a full spiritual experience with no physical disturbance. In this case, the experience often has a healing effect. Spiritual activity and spiritual places need the balancing energy of ritual to ensure harmony and protection from any disturbance.
If we take a hand gesture as an example, (Fig. 63) something as simple as raising the forefinger of one’s right hand creates an energy vortex above the index finger manifesting the ‘Gold’ energy quality of BG3. This gesture is found in the religious art and rituals of many cultures. In Islamic prayers, it is a symbol of the one God; in Christianity we find it in many icons of John the Baptist as depicted in Renaissance paintings.
It is also interesting to note that what we know as Islamic rituals are, in essence, the same rituals practiced in that area of the Middle East since the days of the Patriarch Abraham, and probably originate much earlier.
In BioGeometry we introduce the balancing energy of BG3 to support all kinds of spiritual activities using tangible methods in the form of architectural solutions and specially designed shapes. These solutions are sustainable and will continue to work as long as they are physically intact.
