Oddly enough, it's not difficult at all. EVERY DAY they let 50 people into the Great Pyramid if you pay a special fee of the equivalent of about US $20. You just have to arrive very early in the morning as the tickets sell out quickly. Pretty economical for such an experience, no?

This quote could be interpreted as supporting the GP as a different type...
Quote:More startlingly, Barsoum and another of his graduate students, Aaron Sakulich, recently discovered the presence of silicon dioxide nanoscale spheres (with diameters only billionths of a meter across) in one of the samples.
It would be very interesting to clarify this, I'll email the geologist if I can find a contact address.
Very good points, Namaste. Perhaps it is as you suggest -- that it was a careless generalization on the part of the article writer rather than facts from the geologist. I looked around a bit and couldn't find a direct address...but if you do find one and get that clarification, please do share with us. I think it would even further validate Ra's words on this topic.
Quote:Because of Earth's precession, the changing of it's axis of orbit, wouldn't the sun be setting today in a different place than back some thousands of years? Or was it built to line up perfectly now rather than then?
A very good question. The date of exact alignment could hold esoteric significance.
Hmm... I wonder about this as well. I don't know the answer for sure, but perhaps the earth's axis of orbit has not changed significantly enough to affect the phenomenon. Other large spiritual monuments such as the stepped Pyramid in Mexico City and Stonehenge have similar amazing effects on the summer solstice to this day.
That reminds me of another related Ra quote.. I wonder if here they were referring to other structures (Like the Mexican pyramid and Stonehenge) build on the Becker-Hagens or Hartmann grid?
Quote:2.4 Questioner: Yes. You mentioned that the pyramids were an outgrowth of this. Could you expand a little on that? Were you responsible for the building of the pyramid, and what was the purpose of the pyramid?
Ra: I am Ra. The larger pyramids were built by our ability using the forces of One. The stones are alive. It has not been so understood by the mind/body/spirit distortions of your culture. The purposes of the pyramids were two:
Firstly, to have a properly oriented place of initiation for those who wished to become purified or initiated channels for the Law of One.
Two, we wished then to carefully guide the initiates in developing a healing of the people whom they sought to aid, and of the planet itself. Pyramid after pyramid charged by the crystal and Initiate were designed to balance the incoming energy of the One Creation with the many and multiple distortions of the planetary mind/body/spirit. In this effort we were able to continue work that brothers within the Confederation had effected through building of other crystal-bearing structures and thus complete a ring, if you will, of these about the Earth’s, as this instrument would have us vibrate it, surface.
I also assume this same quote is where DW derives his assertions of the Pyramid's purpose from.
Love to all
