And not without angles either... acute ones, mostly.

i just got a book called 'Shamanic Wisdom in the Pyramid Texts'

by Jeremy Naydler, there is a lot of confusion and controversy among Egyptologists about just what the Egyptians knew and why and when they knew it, it seems.

clever

...please define "living inside a pyramid," cecil...or is this just a visual poem?

[mtmynd]

Thx for stopping in, mnaz. yes, angular and very acute in many cases.

rr:"... there is a lot of confusion and controversy among Egyptologists about just what the Egyptians knew and why and when they knew it, it seems."

I wouldn't doubt that! there's is no confusion, though, "that the Egyptians knew and why and when they knew it" or there wouldn't have been such a history left behind. Egyptologists cannot think like the ancient Egyptians so they are unable to agree amongst themselves regarding their subject of choice.

mj... living in a pyramid as opposed to living a square or rectangular box or even a dome, there are those who live inside a pyramid for reasons that 'the rest of us' would not need... energy concentration and enhanced mental acuteness ... things that are not what i'd call pointless... that and pyramids are very pointed.

"...or is this just a visual poem?"

not just, mj... goodness no! but indeed a visual poem, don't you think?

yeah, i thought it meant something spiritual. oh, & i didn't mean "just" as an insult. and yes, very visual. it did make me smile, cecil.

mmm... the text says pyramid but I see a pine there!

[mtmynd]

nice. i liked the first one, nazzer... a little more rigid like a cubical life should be.

just kidding with you, mj... but you knew that. anything less would be pointless.

Harry Niilson, The Point... nice quote, Kurt. been awhile since i've viewed that. it may be time to hunt it down and see it's impact today, eh?

arcadia! si, esta un arbol de pina... o una piramida... que quiere? (i thought that when i was making this, but que choice tengo? no se... )

Aww crap! I thought I'd answered this post, but I guess I dreamt it...

Eerie!

Eerie!

Speakin' of eerie... I've never received an answer to a post even close to this!

Thanks, Lucy!

Thank you, Hes'... I am quite fond of your reply, myself. It brought me a contented feeling that gently washed over my face like a cold water splash on a very, very hot day...
