Spread over 26 chapters, the
book covers all aspects of pyramids like chronological details
of their construction, ancient science and therapy,
astrological analysis and prevalent legends about Egyptian
deities. In the chapter, "Form and shape of a
pyramid", he deals with different pyramid-shaped temples,
gurdwaras, mosques, etc and how they draw energy from the sun.
Having conical triangle-shaped domes they attract energy from
the rays of the sun and also from the ground below. Lord
Venkateshwara’s temple, the white Church in Paris, Buddhist
stupas, the famous mosque in Istanbul are examples of vaastu.
Pyramids
abound in Mexico, South America, China, Siberia, Central
America, Cambodia, Africa, France, England and above all,
Egypt. Three Giza pyramids near Cairo are the most important
ones.
In a
significant chapter on sri yantra, he has provided new
insights, especially the one that sri yantra is meru
(mountain) shaped and therefore linked with pyramid. He
suggests installation of sri yantra in combination with Kuber
and Kanakadhara yantras for promoting material prospects and
removing vaastu doshas on business and factory premises.
The chapter,
"Ancient Egyptian vaastu science and pyramid
therapy" provides information how readers can benefit
from pyramids in their day-to-day lives, and how pyramids made
of metal (except iron and aluminium) and plastic can protect
articles from decay like food, vegetables, fruit; batteries
can be recharged and water kept in pyramids can acquire
nectar-like effect. Merely by sitting inside a pyramid one can
heal oneself.
An American
lady, Sophia Tanbroch who set up a school in Bangalore, has
made several successful experiment in the use of pyramids and
she is credited with having treated patients suffering from
insomnia, paralysis, etc. successfully. Dwivedi lists 34
diseases, including cancer, which can be cured by the use of
pyramid-charged water. He has explained this application in
the chapter dealing with how to prepare pyramid-charged water.
The pyramid formation for personal use is explained with
drawings. He has also shed light on the mantras and their
efficacy in removing vaastu defects and for promoting peace
and prosperity besides beneficial qualities of pyramid
lockets, pendants, rings and pens. In another chapter he has
explained the types and formation of the pyramids in the
world. This chapter is of great academic interest.
The 10th
chapter deals with the legends in the Egyptian mythology. Some
of the main findings of Dwivedi are (a) pyramids are not solid
structures just as mountains. They derive strength from the
space (akash) element and if they are based on geometrical and
vaastu principles they have more beneficial effects; (b) The
energy of pyramids is spread over all four sides in the
underground portion and it moves upward and then to the
topmost points (conical place); (c) If a duly sanctified sri
yantra is placed underneath a pyramid for some time and then
kept in a safe or a cash box it brings luck; (d) Pyramids made
of paper and plastic are devoid of chetan shakti (vital force
and hence ineffective; gold, silver, copper, brass and all
alloys are suitable for their making but not iron and
aluminium. When one pyramid is placed upon the other, its
energy is enhanced; (b) While putting a copper utensil or a
jug of water, one pyramid should be above it and one below.
Place wood underneath the utensil as well as the pyramid to
act as a non-conductor of electricity; (c) Pyramid charged
water or milk should be ingested two hours before meals. If
the water is sanctified by the chanting of mantras like Maha
Mritunjay mantra, it becomes potent; (d) If one sits in a
lotus posture inside a pyramid, one can have better
concentration and spiritual powers; (e) There is a close
proximity between Hindu mythology and Egyptian mythology and
rituals. "The Book of Dead" and Garuda Purana are
similar. Both are recited at the time of death. Their gods and
goddesses are also similar.
This informative book is
marred by language blemishes and the havoc of printer’s
devil in English and in Sanskrit mantras and contains
superfluous material. It seems it has not been edited nor the
proof read. Amulet is spelt as emulet, beej as beef, Mahamood
Gaznvi as Mohammad Ghanazi, sanctum sanctorum as sanctum
sanatorium, dome of the temple as the tomb of the temple,
incense sticks as essence sticks, earthern lamps as eastern
lamps, to mention just a few of them. It seems that the
publishers never bothered to give due attention to the
language niceties as the English expressions are quite
substandard. The experiences of Dwivedi’s Egyptian tour
should have formed the material for another book as it makes a
hotch-potch of the whole subject.
