Pyramids
The
remains of four-sided stone structures of ancient Egypt and of the
pre-Columbian cultures of Central America and Mexico used as ceremonial
structures and as burial chambers.
Who built the
pyramids? For what purpose? Clearly, the ones in Egypt were meant as
tombs for the mighty Pharaohs, but was
that all? From where did the unknown builders acquire the
extraordinarily advanced scientific and astronomical knowledge used to
design these magnificent and mammoth structures?
Lesser known pyramids
in other areas of the world and the pyramids of Egypt have, over the
centuries, provided archaeologists, historians and mystics with material
for thousands of volumes, numberless theories, endless debates, and
inner meditations.
Today, the mysteries
still continue to intrigue and plague scholars, scientists, and all
those forever searching for the answers to these questions. And new
pyramids continue to be discovered. In China, previously unknown
pyramids were discovered quite recently (see
Chinese
Pyramids). In 1997, a ziggurat (step pyramid) was found submerged in
the sea off the coast of the Japanese island of Yonaguni-Jima, an island
located in the Pacific ocean between Okinawa and Taiwan (see
Japanese
Pyramids). The rectangular edifice is very big (600-ft wide by 90-ft
high) and very old (10 to 12 thousand years old). Professor Masaki
Kimura of Ryukyu University in Okinawa said of the amazing discovery:
"This could be evidence of a new culture as there are no records of
a people intelligent enough to have built such a monument 10,000 years
ago."
In occult lore
pyramids were also used for initiation in the Mysteries,
for calendric and astronomical purposes, and as repositories or
transformers of spiritual energy. It is alleged that the polyhedral
geometry of the pyramid generates supernatural powers. In 1959 a Czech
radio engineer, Karl Drbal, claimed that razor blades placed in the
cavity of a pyramid modeled on the dimensions of the Great Pyramid of
Khufu (Cheops) at Gizeh (Giza) in Egypt would be mysteriously sharpened
within 24 hours. Soon afterwards people were advancing the efficacy of
pyramids for nurturing plants, healing wounds, curing headaches and
aiding meditation. See Mummy.
