More than once we can be amazed by the scienti?c wealthof ancient Egyptian culture. Regardless of whether it concernsarchitecture,astronomy,mathematics, geometry, natural sciences,medicine and healing, agriculture, chemistry, martial arts or philosophy.Egypt and not Greece is rightfully the cradle of our European culture.All the great Greek scientists did spend years and years of trainingin the famous Universities of that time throughout Egypt. Among them was Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Pythagoras, Herodotus and Hippocrates.Because the ancient Egyptian culture was a feminine fertilityculture,sexuality was high on the priority list of everyman and woman. Fertility was seen as a sacred gift of nature,and therefore a gift of the Gods and Goddesses.Each Deity represented an individual aspect of sexuality.Sacred sexuality was practiced by the Goddesses Hathor and Isis.Where Isis brought sacred sexuality into love relationships, the Serpent Power practices of Hathor were meant to reach the higher levels of consciousness and to self-realizationby using our vital life force, called Sechem.The way in which they looked at self-realization shows greatsimilarities with how contemporary non-dual teachers speak of essenceand realizing essential qualities. At that time, using sexualityto reach enlightenment was largely secret and only accessibleto the happy few, who also dared to enter and undergo the intense years of initiation and training.Part of this knowledge eventually took its way to India and the FarEast, where it became known under the name Tantra.But the origins lie in Egypt and that which remainsand is surrendered to knowledge and practice, can be foundin this book.
