Here, the author of the two Her-Bak novels provides specific tools that instruct in the comprehension and application of those teachings, and help us recognize that it is by the path of silence and meditation that we are guided to the intelligence of the heart, which is our key to self-mastery and our connection to higher consciousness.

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2016
This is one of the best books I have ever found, that finally fully explains the ancient Egyptian spiritual philosophy and practice, especially with the correlation between the physical body, as a microcosmic reflection of the macrocosmic universe and all that there is. It offers a unique explanation of the spiritual function of all of the organs and systems of the body, with the intelligence of the heart, how they correspond, and connect us to the infinite, the affect of imbalances, and how to correct them, and use them to bring us into an enlighten state of being, in perfect harmony, so that our divine self, connected to the all can be consciously interacted with, and affect the physical world to manifest what we desire that is in keeping with our greatest good. It is surprisingly easy to read & concise, while correlating the wisdom of ancient Egypt, with that of ancient Chinese esoteric wisdom, astrology, cosmology, modern Physics & Medical knowledge. It also explains the deeper hidden meaning behind ancient Egyptian pictographs. I wish I did not have so much going on that I need to deal with, as I hate to put it down, but fortunately the chapters are short, so I can read a bit a time, which is probably for the best way to assimilate and retain all she reveals, because I cannot recall reading a book where there was so much said with so few words. I am astounded with every page I read, there is a big Ah Ha, so that is what that is all about. I would highly recommend it.

I recommend this book to anyone on their spiritual journey. It puts a lot of things into perspective. It shows the relationship between the body's organs and spirit. There's so much valuable info in this book, too much to mention.

I enjoyed this book. The two copies I ordered were clean and in proper shape- as they were brand new.
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2017
Any works by the Schwaller de Lubicz family are a worthy read (and Lucy Lamy's illustrations a worthy viewing) and necessary to take the modern reader out of our limited "right brain" mindset and into another vision entirely of our world. Very few "Western" scholars can achieve what Isha has presented - so I also recommend Jan Assmann's "The mind of Egypt".

i have read dozens of books on spirituality and esoteric subjects. From Levi to Manly Hall, from Steiner to Aivanhov...and nothing is as concise and profound and utterly simple as de Lubicz in this book. Because what is the point of stacking up knowledge during your life time if you don't "live" the right way? The author shows us that Way. Without religious concepts or tedious historical narratives, she gets to the point. Trust her.

You have to be interested in Egyptology to understand the information in this book. Be patient...it is worth the effort.

Isha is amazing with her words. Idea's and concepts that ive read many times before were made MUCH more clear through her words. This book really clarified some things for me. I read this alongside Rudolf Steiner's "How to know higher worlds" which was a great complimentary book. Just awesome.

The title is long but very descriptive. There is not extensive Egypt-specific information, but that is where the author drew much of the information. I have recommended this to many people in person, and do so here as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERDADERO DELEITE
Reviewed in Mexico on June 21, 2017
Un verdadero deleite leer este libro. Lleno de ideas y de claridad. Un resumen soberbio de las ideas planteadas en sus anteriores libros Her-Bak, Chick Pea y Her-Bak, Egiptian Initiate. Particularmente notable, la tercera parte (capítulos 17 y 18)
Un libro para leer muchas veces y de especial interés para quien se interese seriamente en ideas de trabajo y desarrollo espiritual según las antiguas tradiciones.
