Egyptian Cosmology. The animated Universe - Moustafa Gadalla

Egyptian cosmology is humanistic, coherent, comprehensive, consistent, logical, analytical, and rational. This book is informative and well written, so that the whole spectrum of readers--from the serious to the casual--will find the subjects enlightening. The book surveys the applicability of Egyptian cosmological concepts to our modern understanding of the nature of the universe, creation, science, and philosophy, such as:

The Egyptians' expression of monotheistic mysticism.
The Big Bang that started the universe, as described in the Egyptian Texts.
The numerical codes of creation.
The Egyptian concept of the universal energy matrix, how the social and political structures were a reflection of the universe, and the interactions between the nine universal realms, …etc.
The Egyptians' perpetual cosmic consciousness - As Above, So Below and As Below, So Above - and its applications to man and society.
The Big Crunch would end the universe, and the Big Bounce would start creation all over again, as foretold in the Egyptian Texts.
