The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life, Vol. 1

I was referred to this book from a good friend of mine. It took me a while to actually go out and get it. Now I'm kicking myself for not having bought it sooner. When you open this book, the author allows you to know from page one what you are in store for. He never forces any ideas, or beliefs. This is honestly a book that one must read with an open mind, and open faith. After reading this book, I feel very enlightened. There are things in the book that seem far fetched, but again, it's all about what you are willing to believe. The book was very simple for the average person to follow along with. There are a few words that come along and make you do a double-take, but Drunvalo usually makes sure you are constantly up to pace. I have never been a mathmatical person. First flipping through the pages, I was a little intimidated. Yet, as I began to read, everything gracefully unfolded. There is always more out there than we allow to realize.... this book definitely allows you to find the place within yourself where you can explore it all. Of all the books I've read in the last few years... this is one that I will take off the shelf again, and again. Last note, expect to get both Volumes. You need Volume 2 in order to fully learn what he is teaching.

This is an excellent overview of our multi-verse and insight into hidden dimensions and information long since forgotten. It is not for those looking for a simple feel-good self-help manual or for those new to spiritual exploration. This is an advanced manual and requires an open mind and heart to understand the truths it contains, without taking everything so literally. It tries to describe a multi-dimensional world in 3D terms, consequently many things naturally get lost in the translation. It shakes many preconcieved ideas about who we are and where we are headed as a human race. Closed minds need not apply. If you demand proof for every new concept and idea or need your thoughts to be sanctioned by your religion, government, or next door neighbor before you believe them, this book is a waste of time for you. If you are an independant thinker, want to open your eyes to a world of unlimited possibilities, where true freedom exists and are not afraid to challenge yourself, you might find some great guidance here. The truth is not 'out there'...it is 'in here'. Welcome to the Real World.

You cannot go wrong with this book. Not only is it an exploration of the relationship between spirit, mind, and form, it is also chock full of drawings, as well as photographs that demonstrate these relationships. Even if you had no interest in how spirit forms matter, the drawings and pictures demonstrate visually that the same patterns exist throughout all natural forms, from galaxies to living beings. One of the more fascinating illustrations for me was how minerals transform their shapes through all the platonic solid shapes. I despised geometry when I was in school as a child, but this book gave me a new perspective and appreciation for the subject. It is really cool when you can see all these shapes in these deceptively simple yet beautiful drawings. The author took this study of form and tied it to multiple spiritual traditions, and this is for me the pure gold of the book. A note to literature purists: This book was written from lecture notes, and at times it is easy to tell that this is the case. I did not find this irritating, but it was noticed. I think this book is well worth the read.

This book is not for those who think "in the box." It IS for those desiring to expand their mental horizons. In this book the author talks about the 5 levels of human consciousness, the MerKaBa(the energy field which surrounds all living things), and explains with geometric diagrams, a very interesting interpretation of the Biblical story of Genesis. And there is a lot more in this book to blow your mind. Of course, there is no way to "prove" any of this, however, it IS information that you can apply in your life to see if it works for you. I have had personal experiences with some of this material that makes it real for me. It is written in a conversational tone, because the book is an edited transcript from a series of lectures the author gave. The subject matter is very deep. Don't pick up this book if you are looking for a light read, but if you are a seeker of truth, you will surely enjoy this one.

Geometría sagrada hermosamente explicada. Me encantó. Drumbalo tiene una manera muy fluida de explicar lo inexplicable. Sus teorías me inspiran.

A bit dog eared with a quarter sized stain on the outer edge, ( not affecting the printed words.) I would classify this somewhere between good and acceptable. Two reasons why i’m giving four stars, 1 - no highlighting, underlining , writing or markings of any kind,( most important to me ), & 2 - good price, …Thank you

Very interesting read that I intend to inspire my artwork. Left brain right brain and the music of the spheres where all sources of life are one.

So much information packed in one book. Lots of informative pictures. It must have taken a tremendous amount of research. I bought this copy for my son after reading it myself many years ago and rereading it now.

This is a fascinating book which reminds me of the old saying: "The master will come when the student is ready." You are either ready for the information in this book or you are not. Some of it seems outlandish but the author's knowledge is encyclopedic. Suffice to say, I am a fan. I was having weird dreams about sacred geometry years before I even knew what it was doing and at least one Merkaba practice without even knowing it when I was at junior school so, outlandish or not, I KNOW it is not nonsense! There are pirate copies knocking around of this book but please buy a physical copy. The photographs and illustrations are immaculate, not the badly scanned moire-patterny offerings you get with a dodgy PDF copy. It's a joy to hold in your hands and pore over. Highly recommended.

Excellent book. I agree with the above reviewer who said it all sounded familiar. I felt like I had been taught this knowledge about the mathematical formula for creation at some other time and place. I kept looking forward to the point where I surpassed the knowledge I felt I had known before somewhere. After reading this book something inside interested me in a book someone was giving away about studies done on a mosaic and gammadia that appeared in San Vitale, Ravenna, Italy and the Basilica of Saint Apollonaire in Nuovo and was the basis of several architectural masterpieces. I think this information about the sacred geometries could benefit from the additional studies done on the Octalpha or eightfold endless triangle sometimes called the eight point star. The geometries of the symbol found in many different cultures including the symbol book of the Masons, the rub al Giza of the Moslem symbol of eternity and the cosmological symbol of the Breath of Life in the Islamic tradition. It is said to be a model of the interplay of polar opposites through which the creation ensued, Schneider says. The designer meant the base square to represent the four elements of earth and the offset diamond represented the four qualities of dry, wet, hot, cold. This information backs up the idea of the three levels of consciousness discussed in this book and expands on and increases the understanding of the third level of consciousness we are now entering into. What is particularly symmetrical about these archeological finds is that the beginning square is expanded to a star and contracted to a cross.

finished The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life, Vol. 1 by Drunvalo Melchizedek and gave it 5 stars out of five. It is written at a very easy gradient, and though quite technical in parts, can be understood by myself, not a math or science expert. Last month I read the authors more recent work Serpent of Light, that I also believe is going to resonate to my core for a while. Namaste!

Con tutta la mia esperienza in materia ... questo libro ancora insegna ... ed inizia in un punto chiave ... La scomparsa di Atlantide e le sue conseguenze. Non solo e' ottimo vista la Sacra Geometria esposta ... in forma chiara ... ma include spiegazioni New Age (La Metafisica di tutti i giorni ... del futuro) ... insieme a le forme geometriche scomparse ...eccellente. Dovevano essere 7 Volumi ... sono 2.

This book was for me an eye-opener on many levels: private- business - past-present-future.... As said before by others, either you're ready for it or not. Especially with all AI-Data things going on this is a book where the foundation for future generations is laid down. Masterpiece
