The Pyramid Texts: Introduction (The Avatar Wizards of Eternity) (Egyptian Spiritual Classics I)

ASIN: B0036ZAHA4 Currently available only at Amazon.com.

DR. Douglass A. White has produced the first English translation of the Pyramid Texts with a detailed commentary and interpretation. The Pyramid Texts are the oldest spiritual literary corpus in the world. Unlike most ancient texts we have the Pyramid Texts in original editions that date back to the 5th and 6th dynasties of ancient Egypt over 4000 years ago because they were sealed up in pyramids until they were rediscovered in 1880. White’s new translation opens up important secrets hidden in these texts that have monumental implications for our modern society. This monograph introduces Dr. White’s pioneering translation and interpretation of this remarkable body of writings that comes to us from the dawn of human civilization. This volume is the Introduction, a monograph over 60 pages long and has been revised and updated as of January, 2012. White’s translation and commentary is in five volumes, altogether over 1700 pages of material.

The Pyramid Texts, Book V, Hymns 665-759 (Spiritual Classics of Egypt I)

ASIN: B003H4R1OE Currently available only at Amazon.com.

Douglass A. White has produced the first English translation of the Pyramid Texts with a detailed commentary and interpretation. The Pyramid Texts are the oldest spiritual literary corpus in the world. Unlike most ancient texts we have the Pyramid Texts in original editions that date back to the 5th and 6th dynasties of ancient Egypt over 4000 years ago because they were sealed up in pyramids until they were rediscovered in 1880. White’s new translation opens up important secrets hidden in these texts that have monumental implications for our modern society. This is Book V, Hymns 665-759 in Dr. White’s pioneering translation and interpretation of the remarkable body of writings that comes to us from the dawn of human civilization. Although some of the hymns in this last collection are damaged, there are many fantastic gems of ancient meditation science and the fine art of the immortal Avatars.


This is a vast collection of extremely ancient texts that ancient kings and queens ordered to be carved on the walls of their pyramid tombs primarily during the 5th and 6th dynasties.   Following the cumulative work of Egyptologists to recover these texts I have arranged them into 5 volumes.  Volume 5 also contains a collection of recovered texts from later archeological work. Some of the texts are damaged, but many are still complete.   The Pyramid Texts are the oldest wisdom texts we have.  Unlike the Indian Vedas that had to be passed on orally for long periods of history, the Pyramid Texts were beautifully carved onto the walls of pyramids and then sealed away like a time capsule during the era when they were current and popular.   There is no prescribed order for the texts.  Kings or queens would choose selections that they preferred and then personalize them with their own royal cartouches.  Sometimes several rulers liked the same text, so it would be repeated in several tombs, allowing us to confirm veracity of the transcription and/or discover scribal errors. There is much more to ancient Egyptian literature, but the set of five works mentioned above is a selection that gives an excellent overview of how ancient Egyptians viewed their Reality.   I have translated the material in a way that accords with modern psycho-physiology and insights of modern physics.  However a reader may choose to interpret the text simply as ancient myths populated with gods and goddesses and use their ancient Egyptian names.   In either case the overall effect is coherent and consistent. I have included the original hieroglyph text with each work and encourage you as a reader to follow along with the hieroglyphs as you read my translations and interpretations so that you soon find you are reading the original text.   Integrate your understanding of the text with your life experience.   The ancient Egyptians loved ritual, but were a practical people.  They spoke through powerful symbols in an extremely refined way that indicates deep knowledge of science — even though they may not have had the instrumentation we have today.   They made up for the lack of the precision instruments by increasing the scale of their devices. These books are filled with humor and wisdom.   See the order behind chaos, and do not get too serious about religion and superstition.  Enjoy the literature.   If you find errors in my work, let us know so that we can fix them with corrections and explanatory notes.
