It's human nature to ascribe great secrets and astonishing
discoveries to past civilizations, and this desire is alive and
kicking in the latest book by Laurence Gardner, author of Bloodline
of the Holy Grail amongst others. He is a historian with a strong
dose of curiosity and imagination, always looking to find
definitive answers to age-old mysteries. The lurid cover suggests a
bit of light speculation mixed in with known historical fact, but
in fact the book is an extremely dense read, and you have to enter
the mindset of the author to appreciate it. This is quantum
mechanics meets alchemy meets lateral interpretation of the Bible.
It's about gold, ancient Egypt, secrets, myths, superconductors and
space-time, the Knights Templar and parallel dimensions. Gardner's
really a mystic looking for facts to corroborate belief and as such
there is so much interpretation and conjecture mixed with fact that
it's difficult to be objective; one gets caught up with his
enthusiasm of the minutiae and swept along by it. The credulous
among us may believe that a marriage between nuclear physics and
ancient freemasonry can establish once and for all the reputed
terrifying powers of the biblical Ark of the Covenant, and make the
leap from that into the manipulation of space and time. But take a
deep breath. Somehow this feels like eminent scientists at play in
worlds unfamiliar to them, excited schoolboys allowed to explore
fanciful realms. It's an interesting book, though, and those who
enjoy supposed 'amazing revelations' about the past will probably
be hooked once more. Suspension of disbelief will be a useful ally
on your journey through the reference-peppered pages. But will you
come out with certainty? Will you know for sure what happened to
the Ark and where it now lies? Did it really levitate? Or will the
journey be all? (Kirkus UK)
New in paperback by Laurence Gardner, the bestselling author of
Bloodline of the Holy Grail. From the tombs of pharaonic Egypt, to
the laboratories of modern science, comes the extraordinary account
of gravity defiance and teleportation in the ancient world, and
amazing revelations about the past power and future significance of
the sacred Ark.
The sacred Ark of the Covenant, created from a legendary
substance, is the source of one of the deepest mysteries of the
Western world. No reason is given in the Bible as to why the Ark of
the Covenant was so richly contrived, and no explanation exists of
its alleged awesome and deadly powers. Laurence Gardner has
accessed Rosicrucian archives in liaison with eminent nuclear
physicists to reveal where the ark is, what it is, and how this
lost secret of the distant past, has led to the phenomenal new
science of space-time manipulation. Gardner's controversial
research reveals that the secret of the pharaohs' rite of passage
to the Afterlife was due to an amazing magical substance, which was
directly associated with the pyramids and the biblical Ark of the
Covenant. This substance, now known to be superconductive monatomic
gold, became know as the Philosophers' Stone, while in today's
corridors of quantum mechanics its attributes are classified as
'the most remarkable physical property in the universe'."
