From Fatbrain.com : "This 18-page article contains unique newly discovered information. It discusses the enormous changes going on in the world as related to a predicted cyclic eruption of ancient Egyptian consciousness recovered from the Great Pyramid time capsule by displacement logic. It is a further partial distribution of wisdom from the estate of a Golden Age. This is the New Age event of increased consciousness, bringing new life and new mind. It tells how Dr. Carl Gustave Jung associated the collective unconscious with instinct and made an historical connection with European alchemical symbols. He later made the long jump to Zosimos in Egypt in the 3rd century AD This link produced further links to the pharaoh Akhnaton and beyond. These revelations brought alchemy to consciousness in the Coffer in the upper chamber of the Great Pyramid. The identification, recovery, and location of the Philosopher's Stone is described."

From Mighty Words : "This 6-page paper contains new information about the translation of ancient hieroglyphs as ideographic symbols. In fact it may be described as a hand-booklet on the subject. The hieroglyphs selected for example and explanation may be the most sublime assemblage of glyphs ever made. In a total of only ten such ideographic symbols, a Golden Age of humankind has impressed on mind the whole of its philosophy. A devoutly religious person may yet yearn to know the purpose of Life. This presentation contains the raison d'etre of a highly developed civilization of great antiquity that many may find appealing. Those who come to practice it are empowered with the motivation for beneficial social acts, not unlike the fundamental social teachings of the revealed religions."

Her singing does what Pharaoh's most skilled physicians have failed to do. When he discovers Lila is as beautiful as she is talented, he wants more than just her voice. Although anointed with perfumed oils and clothed in fine linen, Lila is determined to remain faithful to her God. She fears and despises her arrogant master, yet is drawn to him against her will. Confused by her conflicting emotions, Lila prays for God to set her free. When a series of plagues strike Egypt, it appears Lila's prayers are about to be answered. But Lila is no longer certain that she wishes to be free, especially now that Ra-Met's life is in danger. For God has promised to send His death angel throughout the land, killing the firstborn of every family. And Ra-Met is an only child..."

From Mighty Words : "[This book] details the successful decoding of the geometry encoded within the design of the 4,500-year old ancient site of Avebury, the world's most extensive henge enclosure. This revolutionary discovery will ultimately demand a rewriting of the history books, since the mathematical evidence suggests that whoever built Avebury could measure the earth to an incredible degree of accuracy and knew the precise location of the Great Pyramid at Giza. The information encoded within Avebury provides mathematical evidence of a link between ancient Britain and Dynastic Egypt. [The book] also includes new information concerning a breakthrough relating to the dimensions chosen for the perimeter measurements of the Great Pyramid of Khufu and neighbouring pyramid of Khafre.""

From Fatbrain.com : "Originally published by Penguin Ltd in 1992 this revised edition has striking color reproductions of Egyptian artwork and eclipse phenomena, plus skycharts and computer printouts. Sellers contends that the origins of Egypt's key religious myths are dramatically revealed by computer correlations of observable precessional changes twinned in time with an eighty year period of predicted total eclipses, visible over dated pre-dynastic settlements and corresponding with the mythical tradition of Horus and Seth's 80 years of Contending."
