Most people have some idea of what a prayer is. They will either pray on the basis of this belief or not. In the West young people are encouraged to pray in school and in some families at home as well. But as common as prayer is, I believe the question is rarely asked, ‘how does it work?’
I do not believe that prayer is a method of ‘getting things’ for yourself. It might be appealing to keep ‘requests to God’ as a back stop to failure in life, but that was never part of the deal with the Almighty. If we remember Genesis, part of the punishment for obtaining knowledge is freewill. That is, if we foul up it’s entirely our fault.
The Arabs have a saying; ‘Trust in God but tie up your camel first’. So when people ask the question, ‘how could God let this happen?’ they are imagining a perfect universe in which God is an autocratic ruler. That would be simple, but turning oneself into a victim and apportioning blame outside of oneself is a philosophy doomed to disatisfaction. It should be comon sense that camels will walk off on their own if not tied to a palm tree. We are responsible for our own actions and that was always the deal.
If you can agree with this philosophy of personal account and blameworthyness, then it is easy to adjust to the reality that God will not respond to prayers asking for earthly personal rewards. To an intellectual where words are all that there is, this is an unsatisfactory state of affairs. They might become so frustrated by the lack of answers that they form the conclusion that ‘there is no God’. It’s logical but of course, logic does not run the Universe. If it did there would be no access to and need for spirituality.
In my own view and probably others, prayer does create change but an inward change, not outward. If you examine the palmed hands and prostration and kneeling common to many religions, it is obvious that a submissive posture and quiet mind is paramount to effective prayer. The effect of this is like plucking a guitar string in one room and somewhere else another guitar string chimes in sympathy. This is the resonant universe in which all things are connected quiet naturally and without effort. In this way, I argue, we are connected to the all powerful Creator God however you imangine that ‘Mind’ to be.
If you look at sacred imagary throughout history, minor gods and angelic forms are depicted carrying and playing musical instruments. The classic example is angels with harps, flutes and even reeds in the wind are metaphors for resonance between God and the physical world.
Prayer, in any religion, can have the effect of stilling the human mind and spirit to become in harmony with the God-self, that is the tiny part of the Creative Mind within ourselves. This is hidden reason why Muslims are required to pray five times a day, to keep the inner Divine strings humming constantly.
Resonance, to paraphrase the prophet of Islam, Mohammed, (sas) can move mountains.
Tibetan monks in 1939 were recorded by Kjellson levitating huges rocks up a mountainside to build a monastery. They used the power of their long musical horns arranged in a specific pattern and backed by rows of humans in prayer.
By becoming One with the Universe we can create events that we want. This is part of the paradoxical nature of being alive in which a human with freewill can direct that freewill to union with the Creator of freewill and thus a ‘connection’ that is not connected…as in two strings vibrating in harmony.
So we move on to miracles. I said at the begining that prayer is not a means to get what we want. That was not quite true because there is an exception and that is miracle making. There are rare moments (and by that I mean very rare) where Divine intervention at a resonant level as described, can make a humble individual ‘all powerful’.
Jesus the Christ was revered for his miracles, some of which are described quite literally in the Holy Bible and some allegorically. An example of a literal miracle is raising Lazarus from the dead, something Jesus was taught to do by the gnostics of the time. An example of an allegorical miracle would be turning water into wine. In the old testament we have the Israelites being chased by the mighty Egyptian army and trapped by the Red Sea. One faithful follower entered the waters and started to walk. At the point where his head went under water the seas parted.
So if we ignore the allegorical stories about miracles as having another purpose, we can see the common theme that real miracles happen when an individuals or a collective’s very existence is in danger of extinction. It may not happen at a time and in accordance with human desire.
Delay and misdirection are caused by the impurity of our human resonance with God, not the other way around. As the old saying goes, ‘the pot always calls the kettle black’. So the sooner we stop ignoring or doubting His prescence within each one of us, the sooner our lives will change.
Quotation from ;The Great Reset by 2030 – World Economic Forum
What do the bad guys usually want? From the Blofeld’s and Goldfingers of our imaginations to the Alexander the Greats and Caesars, we might think the answer is, ‘world domination’.
In our present era, there is indeed smoke in the air warning us of a world conflagration. The word ‘global’ is something we are accustomed to hearing; in a way that would not have been, say one hundred years ago.
Since then, we have had round the world flights and sailing navigation’s and of course two world wars. Now we are told of a global climate emergency. Global is the new National.
Sadly, for we had to wait until the sea was lapping at our toes and the wind spinning away our hats before taking responsibility – if that was achieved at the recent COP 26 in Glasgow. Those living near the sea may be wise to go out and buy aqualungs.

Concurrently we have yet another global emergency called the ‘pandemic’. This could also have been better prepared for, as humanity has been fighting virus’s for it’s entire history and has never been so well armed to respond as we are today; even if the common cold has escaped elimination.
And then there is China, and the Chinese Communist Party. When I studied China in school fifty years ago, the Chinese people went around on flocks bicycles and ‘stuff’ was made in Hong Kong. Now the Chinese are the center of the world’s commerce and principle producer of goods. This is driven by low wages, long hours ( ‘search engine ‘ the numbers 669) and economical (though global climate harming ) global traffic and trade. Most Pacific rim nations view the highly capable Chinese military as their principle threat and many human rights organisations lay numerous allegations of inhumanity, at the door of the Chinese leaders.

Is all this global Covid, Climate and China just chance or should we be suspecting ‘foul play’ on a scale never conceived of before?
If humanity feels it is being forced into a corner with basic freedoms being taken away, why is this and who is doing it?
In my view the ‘giant at the top of the bean stalk’ is technology. No one ever voted for new technology. A few scientists have had second thoughts on realising how destructive their discoveries are e.g. the A-bomb…but most inventions, like the washing machine, set us free.
For the freedom loving democracies, life, in my view, is about to become a whole lot less free. To understand the means to this end one must only look at China and how it uses technology to control in fine detail, the lives of it’s citizens. CCTV cameras produce images with names and numbers floating above each face in the supermarket or airport concourse. Money as cash has long gone as it cannot be traced. Instead citizens wave their phones at tills in shops and the transaction goes straight to CCP headquarters…just in case they might need it.

By the time it reaches Europe and the USA I predict mobile phones will enable our governments to more or less monitor and control our lives. Everything you are and do will go to a special sealed circuit board in your phone. It will be called your ‘Freedom Pass’. Sounds okay doesn’t it, but read on. Interestingly Elon Musk has other plans to insert this techology directly into your brain, something that may be used instead of or as well as mobile phones. Both will of course be presented as benefits to the individual.
‘Everything you are’ means your personal details and bio metrics, consumer profile, money and possessions, travel, education, health and politics.
‘Everything you do’ means your work and leisure, credit and tax records, work skills and placement, travel credits, health status, voting credits.
The first of these should not surprise us as this is what computers do and have been doing since the 1990’s. What we haven’t reached yet is the experience of having our money and assets frozen because we voted for the wrong party ( oh yes, you will use your phone to vote ) or our self drive car restricted to no further than a five mile radius, (known as a withdrawal of travel credits ) because we put up a post on social media criticising the government.
Cleverly your ‘Freedom Pass’ will measure your ‘credits’ not take your ‘freedom’ away. It will just take credits that you were awarded for following government protocols, away. Your fault, not the governments.
If this future shocks and horrors you then there is an alternative, but be warned, it is not for the faint-hearted.

The alternative is to throw your mobile phone into a lake. Some of us lived before mobile phones and before domestic computers and I can assure you, life was fine and dandy. Birds sang, beaches were clean and people made love not war.
If you fancy this lifestyle today it is probably because you are spiritual. I mean by this that for your life is not just about local gossip and watching TV and going to the supermarket – the sort of life style acted out on the TV soaps.
Those who have a deeper vision of what it is to be human and free will probably be either extremely rich ( so that they are part of the Global Government Party ) or spiritual. By spiritual I encompass all religions and those who have a feeling of a Divine presence or if you prefer ‘goodness in life’. For them it is not important if the supermarket refuses to accept payment because their money credit has been taken over by the State. There is an option, an alternative lifestyle that is not ‘Mad Max’.
You will have to leave the cities, where 50% of humanity have already been funneled. Eventually most people will eventually be sent to cities in order to ‘protect the environment’ or ‘preserve a scientific special interest zone’ or some other ‘desirable noble cause’. In reality it is to put the sheep in their pen.
Freedom lovers will vote with their feet and choose to live in small self-sufficient communities in remote locations. The governments will be powerless to stop this because they will not need to. People living ‘off the grid and off the net’ are no threat to what governments are aiming to achieve. However hard you try to grow just corn, there is always a corner or a dip in the field where weeds grow. Governments know this.

There will be ‘sheep’ and ‘goats’ in most countries across the globe. The sheep will be tended for their basic needs but under the watchful eye of the sheep dog. The goats will move to the wild lands, too high for sheep, too few in number for the sheep dog to chase.
Perhaps you will see in front of you the stairs that enable believers to climb into the ‘New Earth’ as Dolores Cannon calls it. Your vibrational level will change your perception fundamentally. Dolores uses the metaphor of an aircraft propellor which becomes invisible when it changes frequency of spin.
So even though your are still here , you will not be. What was important in the material world will become inconsequential. As a Tibetan monk once told the Dalai Lama after 18 years of captivity by the Chinese, ‘I was in danger twice. Both times because I came close to not forgiving my captors.’
At this time of year on this particular blending of day and night, the troubles and terrors of other worlds come by.
At the crossing point of summer and winter there is a bridge that we all have to cross, like it or not.
Traditionally, Halloween or All Hallows Eve is celebrated, if that is the right word, all over the world, each in their own way for different reason and sometimes, the same.
The spirit worlds are occupied by all kinds of colourful folk and the nearest and perhaps dearest are the departed. If you wish to say one last thing to a recently departed loved one, now is the time to say it. For the two worlds are separated by little more than a thin curtain at this particular time and we can whisper what we wish to those we cared for.
Apart from these dearly departed there are other spirits. Some on the wild side have never left the pull of the earth’s gravity, wishing instead to experience life’s promised pleasures – even from a tantalising distance. The great show of human kind must be fascinating to watch from above, below and sideways. If you wish to demonstrate a tantrum of feelings and send down a little abuse to those who cannot usually see or hear your footfalls, then tonight is the night.
Evil of a greater kind is naturally also present and not so far off as many ‘good folk’ would wish. It bends a curled line of finger tips through the intervening space and grabs unlucky souls from behind, twisting their lives in directions no sane person expected. Whether it is a war or a car crash or a boat disaster of the clashing of people in normally loving families, the great long bearded shadow comes down harder than people fall.
And all of this has become Walt Disneyised. While Celtic folk are keeping their doors closed for the passing of Samhain and the Witches Sabbath, curiously dressed children wander in the streets knocking on doors. The inhabitants are invited to give them fear or favour, in the expectation that nothing could possibly go wrong, and usually, thankfully, it does not.
But you have to ask, what do these children think they are doing? And the older ones who arrive in each others houses for a ‘party’ dressed as ghouls and fools and everything in between.
As if the spirit world and the horror of it’s separation that we call death, is entertainment. In a society where everything is ‘rock solid’ and ‘safe as houses’, materialism blinds the sixth sighted ( as we all are ) from the more gaseous reality of our forefathers and fore mothers. Perhaps they believe the energetic world of the disembodied was jno more than ‘once upon a time’. Despite the ‘Faerie Stories’ of childhood when distant memories of ancient archetypes are explained to the very young ( at their repeated insistence ), despite this grounding in the aerial worlds, they have forgotten or lost the ability to believe.
Like Wendy and Peter Pan, you only have to believe, to fly and live for all eternity. But instead we settle for rattling the bones of the unloved and invisible from the comfort of living rooms and television screams.
In my humble view we should tread carefully on graves and respect what we do not know and would not wish to know if we knew. Horror is not just the jingling of the vertebrae of the spine. It is as real now as it ever was, in fact more so, for the skin of the world is unpeeling before our eyes. Like lava pouring from the cauldron of La Palma and climate change, we risk being overwhelmed by what we summon up through ignorance.
LEAR 270Howl, howl, howl, howl! Oh, you are men of stones. Had I your tongues and eyes, I’d use them so That heaven’s vault should crack. She’s gone forever. I know when one is dead and when one lives. She’s dead as earth. Lend me a looking-glass. If that her breath will mist or stain the stone, Why then, she lives.
The Prime Minister of Spain, Perdro Sanchez, has announced his intention to make prostitution illegal as it ‘enslaves’ women. There certainly is no monetary benefit for the government to do this;
Prostitution was decriminalised in Spain in 1995 and in 2016 the UN estimated the country’s sex industry was worth €3.7bn (£3.1bn, $4.2bn). ( Source BBC News )
I live in Spain and when I first saw the ‘clubs’ on the edges of towns, I thought how sensible to make brothels legal, healthy and safe places. In the UK they are illegal and of course driven underground means illegal, unhealthy and unsafe. An estimated one in three Spanish men use them.
I am surprised that Snr. Sanchez uses such a crude approach to problem solving. The technique he is applying is commonly known as ‘throwing the baby out with the bath water’. In other words he has over simplified the problem and in doing so, lost the good as well as the bad.
Clearly a better approach to problem solving is to examine the detail first.
Prostitution is often referred to as ‘the oldest profession’. In ancient Egypt, Rome and Greece sex for money or sex without consent with slaves (or rape), was a social norm. Thankfully we have moved beyond slavery today, or have we?
Most people are aware that ‘sex slaves’ are imported into modern rich countries against their will. The organisers and pimps will attract young women with promises of a visa respectable job, a plane ticket, accommodation and a wage. Spurred on by a wish to get a better life for themselves, the victims eventually realise they have been trapped into slavery. A ‘debt’ has to be repaid for setting them up as a prostitute in another country. They are paid so little, if at all, that their prospects ever to move on are hopeless.
It should not be hard for a prime minister to focus his resources on finding such ‘sex slaves’ in his own country. A simple help line, a Facebook page and a team of volunteers giving support and passing intelligence to enforcement agencies is an obvious way forward. Slavery, rape, imprisonment, human trafficking and illegal immigration require no new laws.
The size of the problem should not be underestimated.
The Spanish police freed 896 women being exploited as sex workers in 2019 and estimate that over 80% of those working as prostitutes are victims of mafias. (source BBC News)
896 is a small proportion of the estimated 300,000 sex workers in Spain and the question should be asked of the police why only 896?
Whatever the mix, there are two types of prostitutes. Those who see themselves as legitimate ‘sex workers’ who demand and get respect and support from society and the state and those who are prostitutes against their will.
The second variety are really those who Mr Sanchez has legitimate concerns for but to fudge these concerns with ‘respect for women’ is to lose focus. The example I have given of sex trafficking and slavery, demonstrates that the Mafia is not interested showing respect to anybody. Strict enforcement of the law is absolutely necessary to protect sex workers and give modern slaves their freedom.
However, if a women chooses to become a sex worker and feels good in themselves for their free choice of occupation, who are we to judge? Some claim that this is economic co-ersion but by any measure is not a factory worker a victim of needing money to live?
Judgment opens the gates to hypocrisy at the most extreme level. The Victorians in 19th century Britain were against all sorts of things based on religious dogma. This did not prevent them committing mass murder during colonisation and non-consensual sex. ‘Jack the Ripper’ was a sort of emblem of how hatred of women can emerge as acts of pure horror.
picture source New York Times
Clearly laws did not prevent Jack from committing his fowl acts. A new law in the 20th century in Spain is not going to change behavior and it’s causes either. The whole profession is going to be moved out of the benign influence of health workers, social workers, immigration officers, police… into an underworld where ‘respect’ is seen as weakness.
In my view Spain is already a flag ship for showing respect to men and women working in the sex industry. Is the ‘high moral ground’ of ‘respect for women’ a disguise for old fashioned prudery?
All humans need to express their sexuality, whether we like it or not. Marriage used to be the means of making such feelings ‘sacred’ and approved by God no less, but as communities have at least half of their population enjoying a single life, making sex illegal between consenting adults (even if one party is being paid) is opening the path to hell. History tells us that just as history tells us slavery is wrong.
Understanding the problem before reaching a solution, is a skill not taught in schools, churches or political science degrees. In my view, generalised slogans such as ‘respect women’ and ‘black lives matter’ create well intentioned feelings without knowing what is wrong and how to fix it.
What is it with Hotels? I have to admit to having a problem with them.
The clue is in each hotel room. Central to the arrangement of most hotel rooms is a bed and a bed is generally, for sleeping in. And there we have the crux of where I find most hotels get it wrong. The whole notion that their guests basically just want to comatose, appears to be foreign to them. Because of this fundamental misunderstanding, much of what hotels provide becomes a waste of effort and money for all parties. People who want to sleep and or are asleep, do not require a conference suite, a swimming pool, a spa, a restaurant, a dining room, a library, a grand view of the city, an entertainment programme, a stage, a discotheque, wide screen television for sports coverage etc. etc.
We just want a bit of peace, and a toothbrush.
Instead, you get aggravation and cheap shampoo.
The problem with so called ‘facilities’ is generated in part by the hotel star system, which awards stars not on the quietness of the hotel and politeness of its staff, but on the breadth of it’s facilities.
I can accept there may be families and business travellers who intend to spend days and weeks in the hotel and need these things. In this case these quests should be directed to hotels which do not provide an environment for guests to sleep.
If I were head of the United Nations Peace on Earth Commission (if they don’t have one, they should), I would categorise hotels between places of rest and the rest. I would award ‘bed’ symbols for quietness rather than ‘stars’ for what are sources of sleep deprivation.
Perhaps it is time to give some examples of what I mean. I look back to earlier last year when I went with friends to a charming town in the Alpujarras in Southern Spain. The hotel where we stayed the night had a central courtyard around which corridors accessed private rooms. The floors and walls were compleltely tiled. This meant that every footstep was amplified depending on the size of guests steel toe caps. Every cough, conversation and slamming door, was heard by everyone. My friends in the morning, complained that they had to endure a woman talking for two hours on her mobile phone in the corridor, before they could get to sleep.
I want to point out a problem that defies a solution in present international law.
It is about ownership of ‘resources’ by nation states. We know that many disputes have started over this issue so in my view it needs absolute clarity.
The issue is like where we find water. It is either static like in a lake or dynamic, as in a river. Nations acquire rights over lakes and that is simple. But when the resource is moving there are many parties interested to the water, in addition to the owner of the lands over which it passes.
The concept of a nation ‘owning’ both it’s static and dynamic resources, can lead to a loss of those resources to neighbouring states and in some cases, the whole planet.
Picture Credit: British Antartic Survey
The Antarctic Treaty was drawn up and agreed by twelve nations on 1st December 1959. It aims to protect the freedom of scientific investigation by peaceful cooperation. In reality it does a lot more than that. Antarctica is unique in being protected as a shared and protected world resource and the planet is no doubt a better place because of this.
However, global warming is affecting Antarctica. Glacial shelves are breaking off as giant icebergs with increasing size and regularity. Fresh water previously frozen is and will, affect ocean currents which in turn change climates.
Such issues are normally ‘dealt with’ by the government of that country but in this case there is no such responsibility held by a nation state.
This illustrates how the legal concept of ‘it’s in my country so I own everything in it’ sometimes falls short. The rule of thumb works in most countries but clearly not always.

When we forensically consider the case of a country ‘owning’ a resource because it is within that country’s boundaries, neighbours and or the whole planet, can be affected. For instance, the rain forests of South America are, or were, regarded as the ‘lungs of the planet’. They absorbed CO2 gas, slowing one of the main causes of climate change. If we examine the attitude of Brazil to it’s rain forest, the Bolsinario government refuses to be advised by non-Brazilian interested parties. It claims the right to destroy the rain forest and all the resources it contains. The rights of the indigenous tribes are also not respected.
If I found a hoard of Roman gold coins in my garden I would have to inform the government of the country I live in, let us say the UK. They might regard the ‘trove’ as a national treasure an take away my right to it’s worth. Or they could give all or part of it’s value to me, depending on the higher national interest. In this case a ‘lesser owner’s’ rights are trumped by a ‘higher owner’s’ rights. This concept could be appropriately upscaled to national and international rights. The latter trumping the former where the international interests serve a higher purpose than short term economic gain. At present this would not work because legal rulings require the threat of sanctions or even physical force if ignored. There are only limited means to do this at present.
Yet there is another perspective achieved when we consider just the dynamic resources of the country; those most like to be problematic. Dynamic resources are not rooted to the soil like trees and minerals. A simple example is water again. A river may often pass through several countries before it discharges into a greater body of water. Who owns this water as it moves? When the river flows at a constant speed and volume, then the concept of owning the water as it crosses ‘your’ country works. When the rainfall drops or a country near the source of the river pollutes it or decides to build a dam, then they are problems. Such a dispute is occurring between Egypt and Ethiopia at the present time as Ethiopia builds a dam to create hydroelectricity from the Blue Nile.
A moving resource should clearly respect the rights of all countries. As it passes though several countries each should have a right to influence it’s management.

Lawyers and Diplomats would clearly have a great deal to think about to formalise this concept But the world should not delay in my view. Every migrating bird, every ice berg, every bee and butterfly is a shared resource capable of influencing the well being of every human being.
The human race is presently facing an era of catastrophes caused by increasing populations desiring finite global resources and climate change. Denial of these facts was a phase in the 1970’s but not anymore.
When we consider how vital dynamic resources are, it is clear that many are jointly owned and enjoyed by all of humanity. In addition, human beings share a right for dynamic resources not to be destroyed or degraded. The concept of one country having a right to pollute water before it enters it’s neighbour’s land, should be trumped by an international law.

Whales travelling through oceans have no concept of the countries they are passing. Why should one particular country, such as Japan, feel it has rights over whether these whales should live or die? If the consensus of the world is that the whales should not die, then an international body should have to power to order their protection.
Such a body could come under the wing of the United Nations. The chamber might find itself debating the right of the Brazilian government to destroy the Amazon rain forest for Brazil’s short term economic gain and the world’s long term loss. The debate would include the unique forna and flaura and the rights of future generations to have access to this DNA bank. The forest contains chemicals with medicinal properties, viruses that should never be released and countless creatures that once lost, will never be replaced. The neighbouring countries to Brazil, could demand their right to not have desert and refugees, wildlife and viruses crossing into their countries. The indigenous people would also be empowered to demand respect of their rights to the dynamic resources of the forest, in addition to their ancestral land rights.
If the resources that are dynamic are given the international status they deserve, there will be fewer international conflicts over ‘me and mine’ and more co-operation or ‘us and ours’.
Laws work when they embody truths the are Universal. If they are applicable in every corner of the Universe at all scales, they are more enduring and relevant than passing political values. The law would be called The Global Treaty of Dynamic Resources 2021.
Such a law and it’s enforcing body, will become even more important when humans begin to explore new planets and space. It might well be expanded to include static resources. The race to mine the moon that we see today, is about commercial rights to resources that are becoming scarce on earth, so called ‘rare earth elements’. Similarly, the filling up of the earth’s upper atmosphere and deep space with satellites, needs strategic guidance to avoid commercial exploitation and associated ‘space wars’.
If humans don’t get this right, then the next phase after the literal ‘carving up’ of our beloved planet, will be the ‘carving up’ of space and a repitition of the resource-driven disputes and wars in history. Even Helen of Troy was a dynamic resource and if a ruling had been made by a respected Greek god, the Trojan wars would never have happened!
One comment made by many of the men and women who have looked down on earth from space is that there are no national boundaries. We are so used to political maps that the real picture has, until now, been hidden by nationlism. Globalism, whether desired or not, will be the next paradigm for planet care, in my view. Without it, shared dynamic resouces will be seized or destroyed by the short term priorities and political ‘gain’ of politicians who rule without a trace of compassion for the people or the planet. You know who they are.
Males Gain the Reward of Understanding Feminity and Visa Versa
To understand this essay you have to acknowledge the possibility, at least, of reincarnation. If it cannot be proved it can, at least, not be proved to be untrue.
To my mind you only have to observe natural processes to see that nothing is ever lost or thrown away. All the survival lessons learnt by plants, insects, reptiles, fish and animals are locked away in the DNA locker so that they will ‘rise again’ in the next generation.
In a period of knowledge where the physical is given preference over the energetic, it is understandable that some people think when their bodies expire, so does their consciousness. But because the events are concurrent, there is no reason for your energy body to expire with the physcial body. Why should it, when it has so many lessons gained in it’s lifetime?
Such lessons are like the oak tree that has learnt how to warn neighbouring oak trees of the presence of a root disease in the area. This skill will become part of what all oak trees are able to do. So with humans. Our souls learn lessons and ‘evolve’ naturally for the individual and collective.
If you think this is a ‘fairy story’ then prepare for more bad news. You see, there do be Dragons! When the scientists tell you that dragons are a mythical creature, they are themselves relaying a myth that they have accepted without proof…other than the empirical absence of dragons.
But in the reality of our energy bodies, we all carry a dragon or two. Imagine a soul awaiting rebirth onto this planet. This soul will have been ‘judged’ on arrival in Heaven and certain ‘flaws’ targetted for removal. For an abbreviated list of flaws there are seven known as ‘the deadly sins’…deadly because they can kill you, but more of that later.
To remind you they are; pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth.
The timing of the rebirth of the soul in need of ‘correction’ is key. The arsenal of personal strengths is contained in the twelve astrological sun signs. Each sign gives a new soul the strength of personality that they did not have in a previous life, such as being overwhelmed by lustful thoughts or greed. Such a soul might be reborn under the restraining discipline of Capricorn ruled by Saturn, governor of time and order.
The subject is huge and the examples examined in great depth but for the purposes of this short essay I shall suggest that you make friends with your astrological strengths and weaknesses and observe both in action as you live your daily life.
It will probably be some quirk or weakness of character that has been apparent since childhood. Perhaps you were spiteful as a child and always hurting other children, so that you had few friends. This is your dragon, alive and well and carried over from your previous lifetime. It is not created by family and social influence, it is not even your ‘nature’ but part of your previous life’s failure to learn.
The good news is that you have an ally. This ‘saviour’ has entertained and lifted the hearts of children in their stories for millennium, it is the ‘knight in shining armour’. This man or woman, has the inner strength of nobility, enshrined in the code of honour of the knight. They also have a suit of armour that protects the soul of the knight from harmful ‘slings and arrows’ that the enemy will send their way. But most useful of all is the proactive tool of the lance. With the aid of speed provided by a fast horse and accuracy provided by training, the lance has the power to penetrate the heart of the dragon and pin its dying body to the ground.
Children understand these ‘fairy stories’ in a manner that many adults do not.
They remember this ancient battle that that have played out over and over in recurring births. They are back on earth because in every previous lifetime the dragon has breathed fire on the knight and cooked him or her until death.
The ‘deadly sin’…the sin that kills a soul’s life chances…is often more powerful, than the noble knight. And yet, and yet, we will eventually prevail because we have as many chances as we need to use the strength of our planet and our birth date, to rise above the flames of the dragon’s breath.
That lifetime is ideally this moment. It may seems strange to you that there is an unusual amount of uncertainty at best, horror at worst, in the world right now. This is the battle field of old Medi-evil times that is the human condition. It has ‘speeded up’ our collective and personal evolution because the controlling power over us which we perceive as ‘time’ is losing it’s grip.
We have to adapt to survive quickly in difficult times and the greatest journey any of us can make is to adopt the knight’s noble code of honour, armour and spear to hunt down our inner dragon.
Once slain, our souls will experience a release that they have never experienced before. Perhaps another dragon will emerge, but hopefully not. Hopefully you will be able to join the line of noble souls that guard the Portcullis of Heaven and all things which have a value beyond the physical world.
Dragons live in the heavy physicality of Earth. Knights live in shining energetic light of Heaven. Where do you want to be?

Twenty Reasons Why HS2 Might Not Be the Promised Public Transport Option of the Future
There is a project in England called HS2. It stands for High Speed 2 and is a plan to build a high speed rail route between London and Birmingham and then beyond. The stated justification for it by the government is to move the political centre of gravity away from London and nearer to the Northern and Midland cities; the so called ‘power house’.
These cities have conventionally voted for the socialist or LabourParty and HS2 was originally a Labour government idea in 2009. Why it has not been cancelled by the Tories in my view is that there may be some political gain for the Conservative and Unionist Party in making Westminster ‘closer’ to the North. In the last election these cities did largely swing to vote Conservative for, no doubt, many reasons.
One skill that I believe is essential for politicians is ‘problem solving’. There is a science to this subject and the first question to be asked in solving a problem is; what is the problem? As much as this may seem obvious, it is heart breaking to observe how much money is wasted on national projects that turn out not to solve the problem. I am reminded the airport in Spain that has never opened and you can probably think of some ‘vanity projects’ in your local area. ‘Vanity’ may be one reason those in power do not ask the right questions. Or perhaps it is theDunning-Kruger Effect…
(The Dunning–Kruger effect is a hypothetical cognitive bias stating that people with low ability at a task overestimate their ability), : source Wikipedia
…that makes politicians believe they understand the problem perfectly and have the perfect solution.

Another common pitfall for ‘problem solvers’ is the temptation not to apply a new solution when the original one does not work. This is known colloquially as to ‘dig a hole for yourself’. Rather than abandon the first location to dig, the blinkered view and or fear of admitting a mistake and or wasting time, money and effort… compels decision makers to keep applying the original problem solving technique. Feedback is rarely sought, dissenters are ridiculed and rational insight is lost in the rush to jump into the deepest hole ever dug…
The HS2 project in my view is a perfect example of this and even the PM used this metaphor…
Boris Johnson has suggested the only answer to the “hole” enveloping HS2 is “to keep digging”. BBC News 31 January 2020
So far three billion pounds has been spent on demolition and railway infrastructure. To change now would mean wasting all of this money and admitting a mistake. To admit to such things is political suicide, and career politicians need to impress upon their voters that they know what they are doing. This is what we see at the moment.
Personally, I would vote for any politician who is prepared to describe the white elephant under construction as just that. Here is my ‘off the cuff’ list of reasons to abandon the project. I am sure the list could be even longer but it hardly seems necessary. It is not all negative. It contains the precise locations where treasure can be found, should the current hole ever be realised to be just full of air.
Here is my list of strategic reasons to abandon HS2;
1.The people who live in the Midlands and North of England desire most to have better rail links between the East Coast and the West Coast of England and connecting the cities in between.
2. The people who live in the Midlands complain that the existing rail service to London is at full capacity and needs upgrading. This could be achieved quickly and relatively cheaply with additional conventional infrastructure and rolling stock.
3. HS2 is planned to go initially North South, adding a link to London which is contrary to stated intention to move the ‘centre of gravity’ of the country. The word ‘London’ is the clue.
4. The country has borrowed a vast quantity of money during of the Covid -19 pandemic. To reduce this burden ( and presumably vulnerability to any future rise in interest rates) it is proposing to reduce aid to the poorest countries in the world. In doing so it risks losing the ‘world leader’ status it aspires to. One obvious alternative is to admit it can no longer afford to pay for HS2.
5. Since the pandemic, people have become used to communicating using the internet. Moving physically between locations has become less important.
6. Trains are old technology. They have been improved as much as they ever can be and now only new technology should replace it.
7. High speed trains are at their most economic on long distances such as found on the continent of Europe, North America or Australia. As any continental traveller will tell you, the UK major cities are relatively close to each other and journeys short in comparison with countries where high speed trains have been a success.
8. Fast, long distance trains are rivalled by aircraft. In Spain, for instance, internal flights are cheaper and quicker than the extensive high speed rail network.
9. Trains are rivalled by new technology such as the Hyperloop. They are likely to become superseded in the next few decades, just as railways took over from canals. Technology and economics are more sustainable drivers than political policies. New technology by-passes the decision making processes of government. In the era of present rapid ‘advances’ in technology governments must work with new technologies in the way that voters do.
10. A large proportion of ‘clean’ electricity is produced by fossil fuel power stations and nuclear power stations. The first is neither clean nor efficient. The nuclear option is becoming more and more expensive (as decommissioning costs are included) and prone to the dual risks of nuclear accident and the problem of the indefinite safe storage of nuclear waste on planet earth.
11. The costs of major infrastructure projects can be reasonably expected to double by the time they are completed. The original estimate for HS2 in 2005 of 37 billion pounds has already doubled to 78.4 billion pounds by 2015! (according to Institute for Government statistics). At this rate of increase it will have doubled again by 2025 and that is only the estimated cost. There are inevitably going to be delays and unforeseen extra costs. This during predicted future decades of Covid 19 austerity.
12. Europe is joined to one nation by the Channel Rail Tunnel. The United Kingdom is connected to twenty seven countries by the Channel Rail Tunnel – and beyond. The train from Berlin to Manchester appeals to a minority who will either meet virtually, go by air or just not choose to do business in the United Kingdom.
The List Extends into the Tactical Reasons to Abandon HS2
What have the Victorians ever done for us? picture credit Country Life
13. When the Victorians built railway stations, they were able to build their palace-like stations in the centre of towns and cities; just where travellers wanted to arrive! Due to high land values and ethical (archaeology, listed buildings, city centre decay, the housing shortage ) concerns around compulsory purchase, this is no longer practical. Most HS2 stations will be built outside the towns and cities they serve. The connecting transport will take away some or all of the time gained (1hour 21 minutes reduced by 29 minutes) by using a high speed train. An example I experienced many decades ago, was in Brisbane. When you arrive in Brisbane rail station you have to stand and wait for a bus or taxi to get you to the centre of Brisbane. I believe a local train has now reduced this problem but the insanity of these slow ‘connections’ remains.
14. Simple analysis of the problem will reveal there are many means to connect the regions of the UK other than high speed trains. The best and perhaps most cost effective of these, is to improve connectivity using the internet. This has the potential to allow passengers to work during their journey on conventional trains. This will make the speed of the train less important.
15. A new train route will cause considerable loss and damage to the countryside and communities through which it is intended to pass. The least of these is the one hundred ancient woodlands which will be destroyed. At a time when the country has been promised it will be more self sufficient in food, farms will be significantly negatively affected.
16. One hundred ancient woodlands, fauna and flora and in areas of outstanding natural beauty and special scientific interest will be permanently harmed or eradicated at a time when the environment is being prioritised, not least because of climate change.
17. Trains are a less safe means of travel than flying and in the future, the hyperloop. The later will be so safe that the prototype has already been trialled over a short distance by it’s designers and backers, personally. Hyperloop is frictionless so will require a fraction of the amount of energy required to propel an ordinary or high speed train.
18. To fit the broader brief of ‘increasing connectivity’ within England, new trains and routes should be started in the North. Phase One HS2, starts in London and therefore does not benefit those in the North unless they want to go to London.
19. The money spent by the Test and Trace and PPE procurement was approximately 57 billion pounds. This is in the same ball park as the current estimated cost of HS2! If HS2 costs reach 106 billion pounds, then this is the same as the cost of running the National Health Service for a year. Politicians have to be asked why not run the NHS for a year with this money?
20. The High Speed train network will not serve the satellite regions of the United Kingdom; known as Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland. These areas already resent to control of an England-centric government based in the south of England. In my view this may become the straw that breaks the camel’s back and play into the hands of the Nationalist Parties of each country, the first to fall being Scotland followed by Northern Ireland, then Wales and then Yorkshire – Cornwall?!
I have not included any benefits from a High Speed train network in the United Kingdom.
Such as list should always be included in any rational ‘problem solving’ assessment. My problem is, I can’t see any benefits, except some good publicity photos of dolphin-nosed trains and grinning politicians in high visibility jackets.
If there ever were benefits, these should have been gleaned after the second world war when the UK’s industrial cities had been demolished. Despite ‘winning’ the war in 1945 the UK was bankrupt. Japan ‘lost’ the war and in the 1970’s built some of the first high speed trains – the famous Skinhansen.

Perhaps some would argue that an electric train speeding along the tracks is much greener than the cars on the motorway running parallel. With the proviso that the National Grid is powered by carbon neutral fuel sources, this is true, but certainly by 2040 (as phase 2 is due for completion), cars and lorries are going to be mainly electric or hybrid. Any ‘green’ advantage to all trains is slowly disappearing.
And in the midst of a pandemic and in preparation for the next, is not personal transport going to be preferred to public transport?
What would Robert Stevenson be thinking if he saw the final phase of his invention being acted out? What would he say about today’s ultra wealthy taking personal travel into the edges of space and is that why he called his invention Rocket?

In Part One of this trilogy entitled ‘Ancient Light’, I have described the curious electrostatic qualities of many ancient monolithic structures. They appear to be designed principally to concentrate weight upon piezoelectric rocks. This produces subtle effects that can be sensed by the human body and mind, even to the present day.
I have also examined the unique design of the King’s Chamber in the Great Pyramid of Cheops as an example of use of this same principle. The highly selective construction techniques suggest that static electricity was intentionally generated, stored and exploited in the pyramid. The Arc of the Covenant operates as a capacitor potentially discharging static electricity as an ‘arc light’ and even lightning from the pyramid’s peak.
In this final section I shall describe the ancient knowledge of the production of monatomic gold shared (and possibly inherited) with the Mesopotamian civilisations.
There are depictions of gold mined by humans for the Anunnaki ruling Mesopotamia in ancient times. Humans were possibly created as a slave race mining gold for their rulers. Even as far away as South Africa, Zulu legends speak of a time when “visitors of the stars” came to dig gold and other natural resources.
For more insight into the mystery of the ancient gold mining across Earth the work of Michael Tellinger is the authority on the subject.
Interestingly there is little in the Mesopotamian drawings to suggest a use for their gold. What there is however is a remarkably common theme in visual representations of two ‘demi-gods’ standing either side of ‘the tree of life’ holding a bag and cone shaped object.
When examined closely the ‘cones’ appear to be made of many spherical objects which have been formed together into the shape of a cone. It is always held at mouth level as if in the gesture to eat. It is surely no coincidence that this same image appears in Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

The best line of investigation that allows modern readers to penetrate this mystery, comes from a renowned Egyptologist Sir Francis Petrie of University College London. He produced a report for his sponsors on a trip he made in 1904 to Mount Horeb in the Sinai Peninsula.
The full story is described in detail by Sir Laurence Gardener in the excellent video below;
Gardener describes Petrie’s discovery of an ‘alchemical laboratory’ in an Egyptian Temple on Mount Horeb ( later Mt. Sinai), dedicated to the goddess Hathor. Within the temple store rooms, is found 50 tons of a mysterious white powder, conical stones, metallurgists crucibles, tanks and basins. Much of the design stylisation on these and other objects is Mesopotamian. Inscriptions mysteriously refer to ‘Mfkzt’ (pronounced Muf Khut)’ and ‘bread’ and ‘light’.
Petrie decided that the use of this laboratory went back to the very first Ancient Egyptian Dynasty and continued in production until the final 18th Dynasty. Laurence Gardener describes the story of the flight of Moses and the Israelites. Moses famously went up Mt. Horeb (or Mt Sinai, as it was later called) where there was seen fire and smoke at night. We are told that this came from an Alchemical Laboratory where Moses would have observed the transmutation of gold into a powder. Exodus describes how Moses burnt the golden calf in the fire and ‘ground it to a powder’.
We should be aware that Moses was trained as a priest by the Egyptians. His great grandfather was Thutmoses 3rd, who reorganised the ancient mystery schools of Thoth and founded the ‘School of Master Craftsmen’ at Karnak. They were called ‘The Great White Brotherhood’ because of their preoccupation with a mysterious white powder.

In the tradition of the goddess Hathor, a cow and a nursing goddess, came the ‘powdered milk that;
‘…gave the Pharaohs their divinity’.
It is no secret today that gold can be transmuted into a white powder in a furnace and this powder confers good and longevity, (common to Royal families even to this day!). It is called ‘monatomic gold’ or ‘ormus’ and can be even purchased on E-bay!
‘There is nothing new under the sun’ – King Solomon
Is it possible that in large quantities over long periods of time, this powder may alter human consciousness to a higher ‘god-like’ level? Clearly the Mesopotamians and Ancient Egyptians thought so, to the extent that they must have processed large amounts of precious gold to deify the Pharaoh. After all, the role of the Pharaoh was to be both man and a god, and achieving this status whilst living, was his or her aim.
Just to explore the Old Testament, Moses story a little more, there is the narrative of ‘Mana’ appearing on the ground like dew ‘from Heaven’. This mana could be made into cakes and consumed and appeared when the Israelites had run out of food. Can we conjecture that this substance was also powdered gold placed there overnight by priests for the people, until we consider a clue from Mesopotamia. Here the name for powdered gold was Shemana and it is more than tempting to take this as being identical to Mana.
There is a discrepancy in appearance – or perhaps it appeared in two forms. The ‘mana from heaven’ described in Exodus as feeding the Israelites, is described as being ‘like a coriander seed in size and shape’. This appearance resembles the ‘seeds’ that make up the cone shapes in Mesopotamian reliefs.

And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me always’
Exodus 25:30
This extract from Exodus show us firstly how important ‘shewbread’ (or white powder cakes) was. The cone shaped stones found by Petrie in the Temple of Hathor on Mt Horeb, may well have been moulds with which to make cone shaped vessels to hold or mould the shewbread.
Laurence Gardener tells us that the 4th Dynasty was the era of the pyramid building where Hathor is always depicted with representations of the Pharaoh. We can imagine a society in which the workers drank beer, the middle classes and aristocrats used a narcotic derived from the blue water lily and Pharoahs ate Monatomic gold.
With the Ark present in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid, I have described in part two how high voltages and plasma could have been generated between the wing tips of the Cherubim. Such a high temperature might have been used as a furnace to turn gold into the precious white powder but I do not believe there is any evidence for this. Such a process would have produced smoke and waste materials and the interior of the King’s Chamber is remarkable for being clean.
The alchemical creation of white powder was in furnaces in the Temples, not in the pyramids, in my view. But there is another cleaner method for producing monatomic gold, which could have been one of the functions of the pyramids.
As a clue, one of the contents of the Ark of the Covenant, as well as the tablets on which the commandments were inscribed, was some Mana. According to the Book of the Epistles, this was possibly held in a pot made of gold.
Modern pyramid experimenters have found many extraordinary characteristics even in scale models of pyramids. Modern experimenters Mary and Dean Hardy of Allegan, Michigan took a gold coin and hung it at the King’s Chamber level of a Great Pyramid model. After some time the gold coin got a clear “oil” on it and the gold was etched away under the drops of oil. This oil can be reduced to the white powder known as Orm or Monatomic Gold.
From my own personal experience I once worked for an architect in Australia who described himself as a ‘modern alchemist’ and had a laboratory over our work place that he regrettably never showed me. I remember him telling me however, that it was possible to produce oils from metals, a fact that struck me at the time, as worth remembering.
An unlikely scientist in this story is Sir Isaac Newton. He was an alchemist for the second part of this life and deeply interested in the Bible and the pyramids. The following extract is from a recent sale of some manuscript belonging to the great scientist.
“He was trying to find proof for his theory of gravitation, but in addition the ancient Egyptians were thought to have held the secrets of alchemy that have since been lost. Today, these seem disparate areas of study – but they didn’t seem that way to Newton in the 17th century,” Gabriel Heaton, Sotheby’s manuscript specialist, told The Guardian.
The traditional quest of alchemists is that they tried to turn ‘lead into gold’. Such a ‘story’ in my view, is yet another example of a ‘red herring’ to hide the truth. The transmutation of gold using a ‘secret fire’, is the true ‘secret of alchemy’. Chemists such as Nicolas Flamel called the Shemana, Mana, white powder, Ormus – the Philosophers’ Stone.

The ‘secret fire’ may not be actual fire but the concentrated energy within the pyramid at the location of it’s inner chambers, where gold transmutes by the action of invisible fire or ‘energy’.
The findings and analysis of his ‘white powder’ by Sir Flanders Petrie where never published. This may have been because it contradicts some elements of the Old Testament. It may also be that the knowledge of the philosophers stone and it’s effects was desired to remain secret by those in powerful positions who already knew about it…such as the Freemasons and other Societies in possession of and trusted with guardianship of ancient secrets.
There is a twist in the story, because the white powder has been analysed in modern times by the physicist Andrei Sarhakov. He describes it as ‘exotic matter’ because one of it’s characteristics was that it weighed less than nothing! In other words it was not affected by gravity. It’s ability to levitate itself could be transferred when placed on other matter.
These gravitational effects remind us of the interest that Sir Isaac Newton took in developing a theory of gravity that has advanced civilisation to this day! Was he also exploring the possibility of ‘anti-gravity’?
Even more extraordinary is that Sarhakov found Orm could move into another dimension if we want it to, a concept familiar to Quantum physicists and modern mystics, but which the general public find hard to comprehend.

This three part story is one with many ‘loose ends’ as a pessimist would describe them or ‘exciting paths to explore’ for optimists. If we accept the possibility of knowledge, nay enlightenment, in the ancient past that is but a memory today, the narrative becomes just slightly easier to tie together.
The great unknown remains the ‘energy’ associated with the monoliths and large buildings from our past. We know that these buildings are found all over the world and were inspired by known effects on human consciousness . All of this was enhanced to a superlative level by the ingestion as ‘bread’ of a mysterious white substance which today is called monatomic gold.
I conclude with a quotation from the rear cover of John Michell’s classic book;
‘The View Over Atlantis’;
*’The entire surface of the earth is marked with traces of a gigantic work of prehistoric engineering, the remains of a once universal system of natural magic, involving the use of a polar magnetism together with another positive force related to solar energy’.
There remains a great mystery about this energy known as ‘Chi’ and many other names. What we can be sure of, is that there is no smoke without, fire.
Throughout the period known as the ‘Stone Age’ we find a variety of structures made with massive stones called ‘monoliths’.
Stone Henge Monolith
Exactly why so much time and effort was expended to create them is uncertain, however I shall endeavour to cast some light on a subject that has fascinated me for a lifetime.
Some of the very earliest such structures have recently been discovered in modern Turkey, what was earlier known as Anatolia, at a place called Gobleki Tepe. I shall draw your attention only to the large vertical monoliths which are unusual for both their ‘T’ shape and incised decoration. The question is; why the T? This shape is clearly top heavy but perhaps that was the intention, to make the stone as heavy as possible. Let us look at some later examples.
One of the most iconic stone circles is Stonehenge in Southern England. The giant horizontal stones in the ‘trilathons’, again place extra weight on the vertical uprights for no obvious reason. They could have stood upright and detached as is more commonly found.

Many standing stones exist in the landscape on their own rather than in circles or lines. The standing stone pictured at the begining, is interesting in it’s shape and sheer size. It is pointed at the top which is so common must not be accidental. There are two clues here then which are scale and shape of monoliths.
There are also ‘balancing rocks’ and here the shape at the base brings enormous pressure onto the base of the rock.
An inversion of this principle of high localised pressure, is seen where a huge monolith is balanced on top of three vertical stones that have been deliberately pointed. This creates enormous pressure at the point of contact.
None of these structures was intended as shelter or domestic reasons. They are clearly ‘sacred’ in purpose leaving two monolithic questions why this stone why this type of rock and why this shape?
Modern archaeologists have been very successful in analysing the material found at these sites, but because of a materialistic bias, ignore further ways of interpretation. For instance most ancient structures are aligned to underground terrestrial currents as evidenced by the dowser Guy Underwood in his book The Patterns of the Past. In this book he proves that studying the stones as energetic as well as material, opens the mind to new possibilities.
When a stone containing quartz, such as granite, is compressed, a static electric charge is created. This is called ‘piezoelectricity’ and is used today in quartz watches, lighters, even ink jet printers. In order to create the enormous compressive force required for this effect, a large pressure is needed. This just happens to be what is found in ancient monoliths as already described.
It is an extraordinary fact that a 1 cm cube of quartz with a 2KN (500 lb ft) force correctly applied, can produce a voltage of 12500 volts! This is not then a imperceptible effect in nature. Remember that lightning can produce millions of volts in the atmosphere and is both common and natural.
The human body works partly by electrical stimulation in nerves. The heart and brain would not function without volts. It is not surprising that dowsers, such as myself, have experience strong energetic patterns at ancient sites. We can trace energy associated with underground water courses, fissures in rock, caves, volcanic plugs, sacred buildings and many other common landscape features. Animals are responsive to this energy as well with cows selecting underground spring sites to give birth as an example.
There is an effect on the human psyche and emotions for which there is not the possibility to prove here as it is experiential, however the reader is encouraged to explore ‘dowsing’ as most human beings have this additional sense. I contend that we are sensitive to this energy because our body mind unity can be ‘charged’ by it so as to produce beneficial effects such as healing, calming of body and mind and at it’s highest level, enlightenment.
It is therefore reasonable to propose the ancient structures were constructed to produce a natural ‘spiritual’ experience. Sitting in or near such structures for a period of time and or sleeping overnight, can produce ‘supersensory’ experiences such as dreams and visions of extraordinary significance.
The Oracle at Delphi in ancient Greece for instance, gave the female seers their supernatural visions directly because of their location in the underground caverns.
The strength of the terrestrial energies found in these ancient sacred places, is dependent on the size of the structure or series of structures, the unique formation of the location within the landscape, alignment astronomically, geometric proportions and shapes, time of day and season, solar and lunar alignments, sensitivity of the seer or aspirant.
The system of alignment of the human consciousness with nature in order to bring the clarity of mind known as ‘enlightenment’ is therefore highly complex and libraries have been written on the subject.
I highlight the effects of piezoelectricity above as little has been recorded about this and my observations suppositions are largely original and or from the collective unconscious. I include it in particular because I believe that it plays a significant part in one of the most famous sacred buildings, the Great Pyramid of Giza, in Egypt.

I shall present my next blog as an in depth study of this last remaining Wonder of the Ancient World and still our best clue as to what ancient people did and believed and what we are still capable of doing today, perhaps even more so.
