The Science of the Dogon: Decoding the African Mystery Tradition

Description

The Dogon people of Mali, West Africa, are famous for their unique art and advanced cosmology. The Dogon’s creation story describes how the one true god, Amma, created all the matter of the universe. Interestingly, the myths that depict his creative efforts bear a striking resemblance to the modern scientific definitions of matter, beginning with the atom and continuing all the way to the vibrating threads of string theory. Furthermore, many of the Dogon words, symbols, and rituals used to describe the structure of matter are quite similar to those found in the myths of ancient Egypt and in the daily rituals of Judaism. For example, the modern scientific depiction of the informed universe as a black hole is identical to Amma’s Egg of the Dogon and the Egyptian Benben Stone. The Science of the Dogonoffers a case-by-case comparison of Dogon descriptions and drawings to corresponding scientific definitions and diagrams from authors like Stephen Hawking and Brian Greene, then extends this analysis to the counterparts of these symbols in both the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew religions. What is ultimately revealed is the scientific basis for the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, which was deliberately encoded to prevent the knowledge of these concepts from falling into the hands of all but the highest members of the Egyptian priesthood. The Science of the Dogonalso offers compelling new interpretations for many of the most familiar Egyptian symbols, such as the pyramid and the scarab, and presents new explanations for the origins of religiously charged words such as Jehovah and Satan. Review: ... is most enlightening to know that there was a superior scientific world in existence BCE - It is most enlightening to know that there was a superior scientific world in existence BCE. It puts a different perspective on history. To many of us, although the evidence of the Pyramids; the Sphinx and Stonehenge, among other wonders, are yet with us, still we suffer from the illusion that our scientific age is superior; many of us still ignorant of the fact that the very foundation of our knowledge had its origin and rests upon ancient knowledge and science. Many of us need to go research Anthony West ''Magical Egypt'' on Youtube.com, for example, for a good ''brainwash'', . And the true meaning of that word is to wash out your brain. Review: Worth It! - Well researched and well explained. Further adds to my belief that the ancients had detailed knowledge and understanding. Along with the fact that "we" have been around for longer than we think. Thanks for your work;-)
