Posvátná geometrie, magie a symboly ve starém Egyptě – Kejmarová Lída (2024)

There is perhaps nothing more important than understanding who we are and what the meaning of our life is. In this book, the author seeks answers to questions such as: Who is a human being? Does the soul exist? What is consciousness? What did the ancient Egyptians strive for? She attempts, to the best of her ability, to penetrate the realms of myths, art, religion, magic, philosophy, psychology, medicine, physics, and mathematics – and thus endeavors to create a synthesis and an original perspective on fundamental questions. She looks from the standpoint of an unbiased, curious person who has devoted their entire life to visual art and hermeticism. To understand the significance of a symbol, it is necessary to engage the imaginative faculty, which can help us comprehend relationships through intuition. Therefore, the author decided to base her book largely on illustrations, with which she spent a lot of time and was able to deeply absorb their symbolism. In this richly illustrated book, she presents ancient Egyptian symbols primarily in the context of C. G. Jung's psychology and A. Schopenhauer's philosophy. The intention is to encourage readers to reflect on human nature. The book is suitable for a wide audience.
