Egyptian Myths and Mysteries Review

Egyptian Myths and Mysteries

Rudolf Steiner goes through the evolution of humans... I could formulate it differently for Rudolf Steiner communicates in lenght about animal forms, Atlantis etc. but the main focus is how everything has evolved into the human form of today and will evolve in the future. To make the listeners (all are verbal lectures which are recorded in this book) Rodulf Steiner communicated about:
- Zodiacal Signs in relationship to development of human body
- Evolution of animal(-like) forms up to the human form
- Some about Atlantis about the state of consciousness entities had at that time and then explained how that changed through time after Atlantis period (post-Atlantis civilization) - this also linked with intitiation:
1) Indian
2) Persian
3) Egyptian-Assyrian-Babylonian-Chaldean
4) Grecian-Roman (aka Greco-Latin)
5) [American]
6) Christian
- Atlantis development and then organ forming (lungs, brains) very briefly.
- The forming of male and female bodies (throuhg Osiris and Isis influence).
What I like about this book is that Rudolf Steiner went relatively in-depth with his explanation but still stayed on the surface enough, which makes it an in-depth but still understandable book for beginners into this matter... it is not too in-depth.Rudolf Steiner tried to explain all this by using the stories of the Egyptian Mysteries as a reference.

Ancient Egyptian Legends (Dodo Press) Review

This book is a collection of Egyptian myths and stories that I found easy to read. The stories are very similar to both ancient Indian and Greek anecdotal and philosophical stories.
It was my first book on Egyptian mythology, and it was a great choice. CLASSIC!
Egyptian culture was so amazing - even amongst the brutality and slavery, there was so much philosophy and artistic expression.
PEACE

Margaret Alice Murray (1863-1963) was a prominent British anthropologist and Egyptologist. She was well known in academic circles for scholarly contributions to Egyptology and the study of folklore which led to the theory of a pan-European, pre-Christian pagan religion that revolved around the Horned God. Margaret Murray's reputation as a witchcraft historian is poor, and she is criticized by contemporary historians (such as Ronald Hutton) because of her demonstrated tendency to subjectively interpret or otherwise manipulate evidence to conform to her theory. Her theories are acknowledged to have significantly influenced the emergence of Wicca and reconstructionist neopagan religions. Her works include: Saqqara Mastabas (1904), Elementary Egyptian Grammar (1905), Elementary Coptic Grammar (1911), Egyptian Sculpture (1930) and Egyptian Temples (1931).
