Egypt is mystical: simplicity behind complex forms.
Egypt is one of the most mysterious countries in the world. It is also one of the most controversial, for various reasons.
You see that as soon as you get to know her and get to know her. The first and greatest contradiction: how do great ancient monuments, such as the pyramids at Giza (Cairo) or the majestic architectural complexes in Luxor, and such a primitive country in terms of development get along. Looking at the multi-ton blocks, which are perfectly fitted in size that even a knife blade would not fit between them, or looking at the huge, perfectly machined columns, two stories high and above, you realize that such structures are beyond the power of even modern construction technology. And when you relate this to the people who inhabit modern Egypt, it begs the conclusion that they are unlikely to build even now, in the 21st century, the age of the Internet and flying into space. What to say about the times, thousands of years ago. The history of Egypt, according to scientists, begins in 3000 BC. If you add 2022 AD, it turns out that Egypt has already existed for more than 5,000 years.
Then the questions begin:
Who and how built the multiple temples, columns, statues, others, sometimes incomprehensible to modern man. The next question is why all this was built, as the purpose of the construction of many structures for us is not clear or not obvious. Even more questions arise when you begin to delve into the pantheon of Egyptian gods, deities, and deities. Here you will find deities with the head of a dog (jackal) – Anubis, and with the head of an ibis bird – Ah, and with the head of a falcon – Ra. And many different gods with human faces, such as Isis, Neftida, Maat, Atum, Amseth.
It takes more than a year of your life to learn them all. If you add to this the writing of ancient Egypt – with its complex combinations of drawings and phonetic signs. Scientists in many countries are still arguing about the meaning of these drawings and signs.
And this is the picture a person who came to Egypt gets: solid riddles and contradictions.
Despite all this, Egypt attracts millions of tourists from all over the world.
In addition to all the obvious beauty and mystery, which attracts everyone like a magnet, there is one factor that guides and guides often do not talk about – is its mystical or spiritual component. This is the component we need to discover from our own experience. Then we can answer all the questions ourselves.
