A fresh and insightful account of the origin of ancient temples and the role played by sacred sites in raising human consciousness.

Can a temple transform an ordinary person into an extraordinary being?

Ancient texts refer to temples as living beings, intermediaries between matter and spirit that serve to transform people “into gods, into bright stars.”They also describe a global flood in 9703 BC, and how groups of survivors — Seven Sages, Shining Ones, Followers of Horus — set out to “rebuild the former mansions of the gods” by creating a vast, interconnected network of power places upon the Earth’s energy hotspots. And the temples that rose from them would serve future generations whenever they lost their spiritual compass. What’s more, science has now discovered these portals are still working.

Based on solid evidence, this original work uncovers the origin of sacred sites, the seven laws that transform ordinary locations into portals, how the measurable energy in ancient temples induces altered states of consciousness, and why we seek out these mysterious places.

From Stonehenge and the sacred sites of Egypt, to India, the Americas, Pacific islands and the Far East, best-selling author Freddy Silva takes you on a 17,000-year journey of levitating stones, underwater ‘cities of knowledge’, 15-foot tall gods and the secret esoteric groups who kept this single-minded vision alive throughout recent history.

Their aim? The transformation of every person on Earth.
