Here is an idea that haunts me that has a small connection to what were discussing and Atlantis.
I view this subject from a more spiritual perspective which is based mainly on the Edgar Cayce psychic material.
Cayce said that the priest Ra Ta (Cayce himself) worked with the gods Horus and Thoth to create this wonder of the world in 10,500 BC after Atlantis went down for the final time. He said the pyramid was constructed for these purposes:
1) it was a religious temple of some sort
2) it tells the destiny of our human race in the markings on the walls inside the pyramid. and in fact the 'pyramid inch' unit of measure was carved into the wall inside the pyramid to tell people how to interpret these markings. notice one pathway goes up to the top of the pyramid and the other goes down into a bottomless pit under the pyramid. the 'chamber of chaos'.
3) it was intended to be a mystery that people would wonder about
When people first went into the pyramid in modern times they found the sarchophagus broken. Cayce said it was Christ Himself (Thoth) who broke it to symbolize His victory over death.
The number 27 comes up in a few places.
There were 27 pairs of resonators in the pyramid at one time.
The nineteenth century inventor John Worrell Keely claimed to have discovered twenty-seven particulate structures underlying the proton.
Notice 27 = 3 * 3 * 3.
The number 3 is the most mysterious number in the universe. Thus the great god Poseidon carries the trident at all times and the god is always associated with the number 3.
The mathematical value 'pi' is 3 plus a fractional number that never ends. Infinity.
22 over 7 = 3.14
People who are interested in these types of subjects will probably enjoy hearing Al Bielek talk about The Philadelphia Experiment. Bielek claims he was transported 40 years into the future during the 1940s along with his brother Duncan. When they observed their brother Jimmy embedded in the hull of the ship when it started to re-materialize Duncan jumped overboard and got left in the future.
Eventually the CIA transferred their souls into other bodies and they had to grow up all over again.
