ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

It would be impossible for me to thank all the people who have made this book possible, for it would include the many readers who have so graciously contributed donations to my website, donations that made the assembly of much of the research presented herein possible. Without them, this book simply would not exist. To them, I can only say an inadequate “thank you,” with the hope that they know it is accompanied by heartfelt prayers and good wishes for them, in every thing and circumstance.

I also owe thanks to my publisher, David Hatcher Childress, for taking a chance on this book – sight unseen! – and for so generously affording me the advance and the time to do it. Indeed, without his own personal explorations and publications on the mysteries of ancient technology and the world grid, this book – again – would not have seen the light of day.

Thanks must also go to my friend, Richard C. Hoagland, who many years ago shared his knowledge of one source utilized herein – H.S.M. Coxeter’s
Regular Polytopes
– in a lecture given at the United Nations. Without his willingness to share and discuss ideas others deem to be taboo, again, this book would not have seen the light of day.

But always and above all, my deepest gratitude goes to my co- author on this book, my friend and brother of so many, many years, Dr. Scott D. de Hart, in deep thanks for all the years of many stimulating conversations, many of whose contents and subjects of discussion are reflected here, and for his undying friendship and persistent and consistent brotherhood and encouragement:

Thank you, thrice over, my friend.

FOREWORD

BY
SCOTT D. DE HART, PH.D.

Why are we here? How did we get here? Who put us here? These questions have occupied the minds of the greatest philosophers and theologians through the ages, but they have also echoed in the minds of the most simple man or woman born. One can safely arrive at the conclusion that if the answer had ever been infallibly set forward, the question would cease to be asked. Surely, it is not that answers have not been produced, nor that some of the answers did not attract commanding audiences, but the question remains because each person born must ask the question again and find an answer that is personally acceptable. According to the sixteenth century French Reformer, John Calvin, “our wisdom, in so far as it ought to be deemed true and solid wisdom, consists almost entirely of two parts: the knowledge of God and of ourselves.”
¹
Consequently, if it is a personal knowledge that is to be deemed true knowledge, (or at least a fraction of true knowledge) the question will be asked over and over with the birth of each person. But where is one to turn for an answer?

It might be thought absurd to suggest that a finite being can ever reach an infallible answer concerning a question of this magnitude but this barrier of human limitation has never hindered the best efforts of men to strive for it. The most apparent relic from this search for an answer is found in religious practice and belief. These two giants stand as twin pillars in a temple of wisdom erected by previous generations of
knowers
. They have a voice, a message – it is not breathing though it is living and memorialized in stone, symbols, writings, and perpetually acted out within the sacred temples scattered across the earth.

This urge to
know
has long been associated with pilgrimages to sacred sites, the study of sacred texts, meditation or prayer in the hallowed space. Such a pilgrimage is exactly what led me to Chichen Itza, a Mayan ruin in the Yucatan Peninsula. On a dark and rainy day I stood in the shadow of that pyramid and literally felt a pulse of the universe passing through my body, an eerie and foreboding energy flooded over me as I beheld the serpents and skulls staring at me, judging me, calling me to acknowledge their presence. Within the Great Ball Court with its circular stones and the winding serpent tails surrounding it, I heard my own voice echoing across the open field, a mingling of voices from the past making a haunting chorus and opening up a portal that is difficult to describe. My inability to put this experience into words is the purpose of this book by Dr. Farrell.
