Mythology - Gods Kings Spirits...

Matthew Fillard

This book consists of 6 titles, which are the following:
Aztec Mythology - The Aztec Empire, one of the most powerful and complex civilizations of Mesoamerica, was not only remarkable for its military conquests and grand architecture but also for its deeply spiritual and mythological worldview.
Inca Mythology - The Inca Empire, at its zenith, spanned much of South America, including present-day Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, and parts of Chile and Argentina. Known for its advanced architecture, agricultural systems, and administrative organization, the Inca civilization also possessed a deeply spiritual culture.
Japanese Mythology - Japanese mythology is a rich tapestry woven from the threads of ancient stories, religious beliefs, and cultural practices that have evolved over centuries. At its core, this mythology provides a window into the Japanese worldview, where nature, spirituality, and humanity are deeply interconnected.
Korean Mythology - The unique characteristics of Korean mythology are closely tied to the geography and history of the region. The Korean Peninsula, surrounded by mountains, forests, and the sea, provided a fertile backdrop for the imagination of its people.
Maya Mythology - The mythology of the Maya was not an isolated system of stories—it was deeply embedded in every aspect of their daily lives. From the way they organized their cities to the structure of their calendar, mythology shaped their worldview and guided their actions.
Native American Mythology - Unlike written records, Native American myths were shared through storytelling, ceremonies, and rituals. This oral tradition allowed stories to evolve, adapting to the needs and experiences of each generation.

Decoded: Esaus and Jacobs -...

DVM Chibueze Victor Onwugaje

If a poll were taken inquiring if you believed eggs could be Unscrambled, You’d be in the majority with the opinion that it was a rare foolishness to even consider.
More scientific debaters would argue cooking fudges the egg proteins, breaks its chemical bonds, causing new bonds to form. On cooling the proteins cannot return to their raw configuration. Even if they did, it’d be impossible to wield cutlery in such a way as to separate the yolk from the white. The mixing & cooking are irreversible processes.
As a mad Parallel thinker I disagree.
You simply need an uncanny understanding of the components, the various players & their compositions to reverse the several severely transformative processes undergone.
For You & I, Non-Unscramblers (of eggs), not simple. Yes. But I won’t bet that it is impossible, I don’t think you should.
This compact book bears a long lost algorithm which the author has now successfully used + taught others to use to classify People into precise groups of Esaus / Jacobs.
