Here is the rather lengthy list of suggested reading for those who are joining me on the trip to Egypt soon. While I do not endorse fully every word written by these authors, there is sufficient wisdom in each to warrant your exploration. As always, accept what resonates as true for you and leave the rest. Perhaps it will come back to you again later and you can reconsider it. None have the final word on the infinite mysteries of the Universe or the teachings of the Ancients, but these are topics that fascinate and intrigue all who seek a higher understanding of our existence.

Begin where you are drawn and enjoy the journey. By clicking on any title, you will be taken to it instantly.

There will not be a quiz. However, the more you explore the greater and richer will be your experience when you are standing on the sacred ground of Egypt.
