Download or read book Sun Moon and Sothis written by Lynn E. Rose and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ancient Egyptian Calendar followed the movements of the star Sothis (Sirius) as well as the sun. This book discusses how the Egyptians divided time, and then turns to a detailed examination of how Egyptian lunar calendars were tied by succeeding astronomers into the Julian Calendar, and thus into our own calendrical reckonings. The author suggests that a mistake in ancient calculations may mean a substantial error in our dating of the Middle Kingdom, meaning that it may be a much later period than commonly assumed.

Book excerpt: As an old hippie, Jesus freak, I cannot help but question authority. I have done so with established beliefs of major denominations. I compare what denominations teach as sound doctrine and compare them to what the Biblethe sole authorityteaches in reality. For example, hell is accepted and taught as literal fire and eternal torment when Scripture actually reveals something opposite and totally different.

Download or read book The Theology of Hathor of Dendera written by Barbara A. Richter and published by Lockwood Press. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ptolemaic period witnessed an enormous increase in the number of hieroglyphic signs and iconographic elements (composite crowns, scepters, and cult objects). The ancient scribes exploited this complexity when composing the reliefs used in temple decoration, selecting particular words, hieroglyphic signs, and iconographic elements in order to create interconnected multiple layers of meaning, forming a tapestry of sound and sight. The Theology of Hathor of Dendera examines these techniques on both micro- and macro-levels, from their smallest details to their broadest thematic connections, foregrounding individual techniques to determine the words and phrases singled out for emphasis. By synthesizing their use in the three-dimensional space of the most important cult chamber in the Temple of Hathor at Dendera, this new method of analysis not only reveals the most essential characteristics of the local theology, but also shows how the ancient scribes envisioned the universe and the place of humankind within it.

Download or read book Stars written by Durime P. Zherka and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-03-20 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We admire the beautiful bright stars in the dark night up in the sky while we are doing so many wishes; also, we are putting so many connections of our activities with stars and moon, so to write about stars is interesting. With so many interesting information by Astrology awakened my curiosity, I decided to write this fiction book in honor of the beautiful and different big groups of stars that are in the constellation. Stars are shining by thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. This fusion in its core is releasing energy that traverses in interior of the star and that radiates into outer space. This lay of hydrogen into helium gives some stars different, beautiful colors, like red nebula, blue stars, or purple stars too. Their shining is bright. Because the stars have so much mysteries and different stories connected with religious and galactic navigation, since in older time, and people all around the planet connect the stars and the moon to so many activities and their wishes too, it inspired me to write about stars.

Download or read book So This Is Life written by Anne Manne and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So This Is Life is a wonderfully evocative account of youth that will surely take its place among the classics of Australian childhood. At age seven, after her parents' marriage broke down, Anne Manne travelled with her mother and sisters from Adelaide to the Central Victorian countryside to begin a new life. So This Is Life is not a conventional memoir but a haunting and luminous account told through storiesandmdash;unexpected moments of epiphanyandmdash;where meaning, suddenly and sometimes shockingly, reveals itself. Possessing an astonishingly faithful and vivid memory of the pain, fear and joy of childhood; a sensibility keenly alive to the beauty of the landscape, the fellow-creatureliness of animals and the comedy, tragedy and dignity of the lives of the country folk she grew up among, So This Is Life shows a powerful moral vision being shaped, about the meaning of kindness, and the desolation of grief. It depicts worlds as far apart as the faded gentility of former goldfields wealth, and the patriarchal spivvery of the country racetrack. Full of inconsolable pain but also impish humour, these stories sparkle like gems.

Book excerpt: How did everything come to be? What are the origins of life? In this volume, we will explore the many world views on origins. For a Christian, the foundation of our belief system is found in the Bible. More specifically, it begins with the book of Genesis. For it is with Genesis that one is shown the foundational doctrine of creation - which is the beginning of Christianity for all extents and purposes. In today's society, the world has accepted a different foundation - evolution. Belief in evolution can lead to different rules. There is no creator, no absolute authority, and man can make his own rules. Evolution has beenused as a scientific justification and/or excuse for non-Christian activities, but does science support evolution and other world views? The facts may surprise you as we explore In The Beginning
