JOHN MAJOR JENKINS, - Galactic Alignment: The Transformation of Consciousness According to Mayan, Egyptian, and Vedic Traditions.

Bear & Co., 2002. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾ tall, Softcover, Soft Cover, New. ¶ 2002.300p. This book is a fascinating and scholarly exploration of ancient cosmologies, which focuses on the relationships between the spiritual destiny of mankind and the solstitial position of the sun and the centre of our galaxy. Basing himself on a number of eminent authorities, John Major Jenkins describes a cosmic clock which provides critical end-points in the process of world-cycles. Jenkins makes us aware of the huge scale of the esoteric knowledge of antiquity, and he sets out to restore what has been lost, which is a form of cosmological knowledge embracing all the levels of our complex being at once. The great changes we are witnessing today are shown to be mysteriously coordinated with cosmic movements which we wrongly thought the ancients knew little or nothing about.
