Anthony West - Serpent in the Sky
John Anthony West - Serpent in the Sky - The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt
Serpent in the Sky presents a revolutionary, exhaustively docu-
mented reinterpretation of the civilization of ancient Egypt; it
is a study of the life work of the philosopher, Orientalist and
mathematician, the late R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz.
After two decades of study, mainly on site at the Temple of
Luxor, Schwaller de Lubicz was able to prove that all that is
accepted as dogma concerning Egypt (and ancient civilization
in general) is wrong, or hopelessly inadequate; his work over-
throws or undermines virtually every currently cherished
belief regarding man's history, and the 'evolution' of civiliza-
tion.
Egyptian science, medicine, mathematics and astronomy
were all of an exponentially higher order of refinement and
sophistication than modern scholars will acknowledge. The
whole of Egyptian civilization was based upon a complete and
precise understanding of universal laws. And this profound
understanding manifested itself in a consistent, coherent and
interrelated system that fused science, art and religion into a
single organic Unity. In other words, it was exactly the oppo-
site of what we find in the world today.
Moreover, every aspect of Egyptian knowledge seems to
have been complete at the very beginning. The sciences, artis-
tic and architectural techniques and the hieroglyphic system
show virtually no signs of a period of 'development'; indeed,
many of the achievements of the earliest dynasties were never
surpassed, or even equalled later on. This astonishing fact is
readily admitted by orthodox Egyptologists, but the magni-
tude of the mystery it poses is skillfully understated, while
its many implications go unmentioned.
How does a complex civilization spring full-blown into
being? Look at a 1905 automobile and compare it to a modern
one. There is no mistaking the process of 'development'. But
in Egypt there are no parallels. Everything is there right at the
start.
The answer to the mystery is of course obvious, but because
it is repellent to the prevailing cast of modern thinking, it is
seldom seriously considered. Egyptian civilisation was not a
'development', it was a legacy.
Following an observation made by Schwaller de Lubicz, it is
now possible virtually to prove the existence of another, and
perhaps greater civilization antedating dynastic Egypt — and
all other known civilizations — by millennia. In other words,
it is now possible to prove 'Atlantis', and simultaneously, the
historical reality of the Biblical Flood. (I use inverted commas
around 'Atlantis' since it is not the physical location that is at
issue here, but rather the existence of a civilization sufficiently
sophisticated and sufficiently ancient to give rise to the
legend.)
Proof of the existence of Atlantis' rests upon a simple geo-
logical foundation.
Questions of chronology and cause remain unanswered.
And it is still impossible to say how the wisdom of Atlantis'
was preserved and handed down, or by whom. But its existence
is now as difficult to deny as the completeness and coherence of
Egyptian knowledge at its inception.
Comment: This book complements the documentary "Magical Egypt" with Anthony West.
