Today marks a pretty special day. For the first time in a very long time, and possibly ever, there is a book that traces the history of the ancient Religion of the Sun throughout much of the world.
The book, The Ancient Religion of the Sun: The Wisdom Bringers and the Lost Civilization of the Sun, is now available – you can find out more about it and where to purchase it here.
The research that has gone into writing this book has been such an incredible journey for me personally, and I hope it will also be an eye-opening journey for you.
I don’t know about you, but so much of ancient history seemed so distant and dead for me for most of my life. The old gods of ancient Egypt and India seemed almost like cartoons and caricatures, the histories of many indigenous peoples like camp-fire stories, and ancient sites like the rubble of something I couldn’t quite relate to.
But what if there is a reality behind them? What if truly amazing things have happened on this planet in the past? What if I told you that the Egyptian god Osiris had been a real person, that Odin/Wotan of the Nordic/Germanic people was a real person too, and so was Quetzalcoatl and Viracocha of Central and South America? What if I told you that the mythical city of Shambhala had been a real place? And that the work of building many ancient sites had been part of an incredible spiritual mission?
I’ve found that these things and much more are true, and in this book I provide as much evidence for them as I’ve been able to muster so far.
What links all these things together is a profound body of knowledge, which I refer to as the Religion of the Sun. Understanding the history of this religion, as well as the people who followed it and spread it across the world, has the power to explain so many of the similarities between ancient sites, wisdom traditions, and mythologies.
In short, what I’ve aimed to do is to identify the real people, places, and events, from amidst the myths, texts, and archeological evidence, to tell the story of what really happened in much of our ancient sacred past.
I have many people to thank.
A huge thank you to Jenny, Jon, Priya, and Dara. They have done such a wonderful job over the last few weeks in making this book happen, working tenaciously through all the myriad of details that go into producing a referenced and illustrated book like this. Jenny did a beautiful job of formatting it all, putting together the styles, laying out the many images and quotes throughout the book, and organizing everything with the printer and distributor. Jon worked through all the fine details of putting together the references section with hundreds of images and attributions, composing the beautiful composite images, and processing the many images for print. Priya and Jenny worked through acquiring permissions where necessary for third party material reproduced in the book. And Dara designed the beautiful book cover. Thank you also to Jon and Jordan for going through the book to edit all my typos and punctuation.
A special thank you to my husband Mark. This book is very much the result of a joint journey of research and exploration we’ve been on together over the last seven years, but also a journey we would never have started nor followed had it not been for his own personal spiritual journey, which is what carries us through and forward.
I am also very thankful for the people whose research has helped inform my own – particularly Thor Heyerdahl, Graham Hancock, and Martin Doutre. I so appreciate these people who’ve decided to risk telling the truth, despite the potential personal consequences. It’s only because of people like this that there is any good in the world at all. Telling the truth in this day and age is a heroic act in my opinion in whatever field it may be, so thank you to those heroes in the field of ancient history.
I also cannot thank enough all of you who have donated during this time so that I could just focus on writing this book, especially over the last few months when I have been very quiet on this website and my YouTube channel, as writing a book demands many long hours of focus each day over months. Thank you for “keeping the faith” so to speak, knowing that even when things seem quiet, we are working as much as we can.
Mark and I receive no royalties or payments from any of our books, or anything we do, and work completely on voluntary donations alone, as we believe spiritual knowledge should not be used for profit. The price of this book is set only to cover the costs of printing and publishing it. If you appreciate what we do, and would like to see more of it, please consider donating.
Well, that’s it – all that’s left to do now is to (hopefully) enjoy the book!
My research is always ongoing, and I appreciate any comments, questions, suggestions, or research from any of you as the great mystery of the ancient Religion of the Sun continues to unfold.
Lara
I’ve only just started reading the book and although I find the depth of research quite overwhelming, it’s really inspiring to see the documented links between ancient cultures. The content so far is amazing and I feel that this information could really benefit humanity profoundly. Thank you for all the hard work and sacrifice that went into this book.
I have just started reading the book but it has already grabbed my interest and I look forward to the adventure of uncovering, for myself, the history of this humanity and of the Religion of the Sun.
My husband and I are reading it together and are loving it. Living in Cusco and reading this book, it’s a little bit unreal. I feel like I have been transported to a different plane of existence, a better one.
I got my book today! Just a fast look over it made me very interested in its message! Once again, thank you very much for kindly sharing this knowledge.
I got my book too just recently. I couldn’t believe its size and the cover reminded me and conveyed a feeling of ancient Egypt… its like its stepped out from the past into the present.
Starting the first page today and look forward to learning from all your hardwork, research and not least of all your love.
Thank you and to Mark, who’s most amazing life giving work is eternally felt!
May your love continue to grow in strength and understanding :)
There’s lots of thought provoking information I’ve come across in reading the book already. I thought I’d bring up some of these things.
One was this (part) quote about keeping track of Earth’s history. If I understand correctly, it came from an Egyptian priest and made its way to Plato: “… Whereas just when you and other nations are beginning to be provided with letters and the other requisites of civilized life, after the usual interval, the stream from heaven, like a pestilence, comes pouring down, and leaves only those of you who are destitute of letters and education; and so you have to begin all over again like children, and know nothing of what happened in ancient times, either among us or among yourselves. As for those genealogies of yours which you just now recounted to us, Solon, they are no better than the tales of children.”
This just hit a spot for me, as it’s quite true how modern views of history are pretty confined to the written/documented history available and can’t look much further. Yet we regard it pretty much, to a greater degree than we should, as ‘civilised’ history.
Archaeology does go further, but somehow (even though set in stone :-) ) its importance is still often given too limited a weight, perhaps due to it being more open to interpretation? Too often remarkable finds are, of course, put into one of the simplistic boxes we have available. The mysterious sense of it brought down. But it seems to me that the very casting of doubt itself already works well to leave the precious findings forever ‘up in the air’, so not allowing it to give people an assured confirmation of their depth.
But not to go off-track too much. Online I also found more lines from this same quoted text: “In the first place you remember a single deluge only, but there were many previous ones; …”
Got my copy yesterday and sat down with it for a timeless while, skimming through the pages, getting drawn in here and there, and sneaking forward to the last chapter too. Today I started from the beginning so as not to miss anything. What can I say. It’s an incredible gift to the world. I was struck by just what a thorough and erudite presentation of this missing chapter of humanity it is, it’s clear that an immense amount of research went into compiling this book, and with this comes a hope that it will be accepted by a wide spectrum of people, those within the academic establishment, or who need a lot of ‘hard evidence’, as well as those already with the feeling that much has been hidden about the real history of man and the real message of true religion, but who haven’t been able to find the answer. Yet what also struck me is just how incredible it is to have someone, or a team of two, who can bring together this information and put it into a clear spiritual context, and with this comes a hope that it awakens many people’s latent spiritual journey and encourages many who are already seeking a way to reunite with divinity on their way forward.
thank you, Ella. I am eagerly awaiting our copies.
your brief critique is very inspiring!
I agree Ella – it’s amazing how a husband and wife team have together brought together such a diverse collection of information and filled in the many missing gaps in our current knowledge, in order to create such a clear and well-researched explanation of our ancient spiritual past. The fact that so many others have missed the overall picture, ranging from academics to those coming from a spiritual perspective, indicates how vital it is to dedicate ourselves to the right kind of spiritual investigation in our own lives, in order to understand the world around us and to be able to pass on our findings in an accurate way to others.
Well said Ella! I’ve so far resisted sneaking a peek at the end, however!
To me, this wonderful book is the crystallization of several years of tantalizing evidence that’s been seeping out from Lara’s posts and videos. The book is crammed full of well documented references, and it fills out many of the details that have been only mentioned in passing in previous discussions by Lara. It’s wonderful.
Thanks to you Lara and your silent (but obviously very busy) publishing team who’ve brought this book to light.
Got the Book :-D!
I had a list of things planned for the evening, but once I opened the package and book for a ‘quick glance’ I couldn’t put it down! It’s now a few hours and lots of big smiles later, loved reading everything I read so far, and am really impressed by the wide range of information pulled together, also I feel invigorated by the feeling that this is very much a journey of investigation that is taking place right now and something someone can be part of.
I’m looking forward to sitting down to read it more properly in the next few days.
Yes, I agree Karim. The book covers an impressive range of information and it’s wonderful to be part of this awe-inspiring journey of investigation into our ancient spiritual past.
I too opened the book for a ‘quick glance’, and also was engrossed by the detail revealed. There’s a lot of information between the covers!
I received my copy of the book today and was struck with a sense of wonder at how amazing the collective spiritual history of humanity really is. I’m sure that this book with provide much inspiration, as well as solid evidence to support the widespread practice of The Religion of the Sun by our ancestors throughout the world.
Thanks so much Lara, Mark, the publisher and everyone involved in making this precious publication possible. It seems the jigsaw puzzle of our past is finally being solved and it’s exciting to be able to access these wonderful and important new discoveries.
Hi Lara, research team and publishers… finally a book to put our ancient past together…I had hoped a book like this would be forthcoming, to help provide the evidence in print format. There is something more credible about reading information presented in a book – it seems to make it more real for me (and perhaps others). Eagerly awaiting my copy…!
Thanks Lara and the team for making this book a reality. I look forward to obtaining a copy asap.
Thank you so much Lara for putting together this book. It is amazing. I’m only part way through, but as soon as I started reading it realized that this kind of explanation, written out, was going to be so helpful for me personally putting together more of the dots about how the Religion of the Sun manifested in different parts of the world. In reading through some of the ancient texts referencing the Religion of the Sun on my own, I could see connections but was missing things that you’ve explained in this book.
Plus, the videos that you’ve been publishing are great because of how much information is included, but with this book it’s a lot easier to stop and reflect, reread, and gain a deeper understanding of how all the puzzle pieces fit together.
This work that you and Mark have brought back to light from the ancient and obscure past is such a treasure, thank you!
“That speechless past has begun to speak ; the lost is no longer the utterly lost ; the gone is not gone for ever.” ~ Palgrave.
That’s a very appropriate quote Karim. Thanks for sharing it.
I wish it, Karim. Very nice! Thank you for sharing it.
Is there any way anyone could upload a pdf version of the book? At the very least for a purchase or donation, it would mean a lot to me if i could share the knowledge yet not be kept behind a paywall, which I know you clearly acknowledge this book was not made for profit. All the best.
P.S. is there anything in this book that hasn’t veen covered by blavatsky, crowley, and manly p hall? Thank you.
Hi L
Lara said on a comment recently in this website that she’s updating this book and it will be released soon.
Hi L,
This book is only available in paperback, as I’ve had too many bad experiences of people plagiarizing my work in electronic format. I know it means sharing the book is more restricted, so I hope you can afford to lend your book to friends or just recommend it.
I’m not familiar with Blavatsky’s, Crowley’s, or all of Manly P Hall’s work, but I think you’ll find that my book covers new topics, and ones they’ve covered, but with reference to new evidence and studies. I also interpret much of history and ancient religion in a different way.
I think they were doing the best they could with the information they had, but people writing now have the benefit of the discoveries that have been made since their time and the greater access to information that the internet has provided.
That’s fantastic news indeed! Congratulations; well done!
Many thanks Lara: and of course to Mark; and also to the rest of the team; for all the hard work.
To have a light shone on the true reality of our past; and to uncover what’s been hidden and lost for so long is very exciting. The opportunity to have access to this information is truly magical; and I very much look forward to getting my hands on a copy. Thank you very much.
A heartfelt thank you, Lara! To you and Mark, and to all people who contributed to the realization of this book. Ι wish it can constitute the solid basis for the revealing of many parts of truth related to our past and history, our spiritual roots and journey.
I feel that the return to our Source is related to the truth which is kept closed within us, and this part related to the past is important for me to come up as it is connected to the concept of that truth.
I also believe that history needs brave people to reveal and support what really happened because of the consequences or some other factors related to the country, its belief systems, etc. I found in my country some books related to the re-dating of prehistory and in most of the cases, the writers weren’t from the academic field but mostly were independent researchers or historians.
Looking forward to learning more about this journey and thank you all again!
Thank you, very much, Lara, Mark and the publisher for this amazing result. I can imagine that from what you said Lara, as one reads this book a new world and history is revealed and illuminated while the big gaps of our common universal history are evaporated and give their position in gems of brilliant civilisations.
What a nice story! I liked ever the tales and myths, but when it is proved they are product of the reality, history and deep spiritual teachings from wisdom Teachers then this work is blessing for the humankind.
Hi Lara,
Along with reading the actual book I thought it would be so nice to have the release be accompanied by hearing you discuss the book in some way. Perhaps an intro to it in a Sakro Sawel video?
I was even thinking of interviews on some of the talk show YouTube channels out there, that would be really cool, though not all of them might be suitable.
But maybe at a point once this book and your material gains some more widespread tracking.
I did read there are more videos planned on the Sakro Sawel channel, very excited about those and what they’ll cover!
Yes, very exciting to hear about the upcoming Sakro Sawel videos Karim!
Just to relate something. Yesterday in a library, having requested a book from storage, I realised I found what seemed to be a great gem on the topic I’m looking into. I was taken aback a bit how well it matched my own previous understanding, feeling and insights in the topic. But authored by someone who’d spend years already looking into the subject. So I was also, like those heroic authors mentioned in this post, very grateful to that author having already done all that original work.
But there was a moment while reading where it felt like there was some sort of scintillating synchronicity sparkling in the air… Where finding my way to that book, my previous study, even the inner insights I had been receiving– it all felt connected and I felt there was a ‘supernatural’ support present in it all, in the undertaking of uncovering in this field of study.
I think the book itself is a great marking point, and a wonderful materilalisation of a lot of work. But the reason I’m bringing this insight up is because I’m even more grateful to Lara, with the help of Mark’s foundation of knowledge, for heading and even opening up this avenue of exploration at all. Because it has appeared to me that there is a life present there. A ‘higher endorsed’ living work that someone has the opportunity to be part of. That’s a big thing.
Anyway enough talk :), better get to diving into some of that exploration!
It’s great to hear about the divine synchronicity you felt Karim and wish you success with your ongoing research!
Thank you very much Lara for all your research and work and everyone who helped and supported you so a book like this could exist. It’s incredible and amazing all the information you and Mark give about “The Religion of the Sun:, helps to put the parts of this world’s history together and to understand how beyond everything there’s a spiritual meaning and purpose and gives a completely different view about what life is really about, comparing it with what exists in current daily life.
I’m very excited and interested in starting reading this book and looking forward to get a copy.
Thank you Lara again and all the team for this powerful help, giving so much inspiration and guidance.
I just had a closer look at the topic covered in the book, and I can see that they also cover the genetic evidence! In my research of the ancient people of Caucasus, I came across the topic of different “haplogroups” that many people seem to be investigating today. At first I felt a bit of reluctance to look more into it, but as a former geneticist finally I could not resist it, mainly because it was related to the topic I have been researching. Very much looking forward to reading this section of the book, and also about the ancient Persia, which is also something I stumbled across in connection to the Indo-Europeans and Indo-Aryans of the Caucasus area.
I’m also looking forward to hearing more about the genetic evidence for historic migration linked to the movement of the Religion of the Sun, Lucia. Something that I came across looking at the Egypt-Britain link that the Kolbrin’s movement attests to is that 70% of men in Britain (and around 60% of French) have the same ‘genetic profile’ (whatever that means, maybe you know in more detail!) to Pharaoh Tutankhamun, (the son of Akhenaten, I guess the news focuses on the most famous Pharaoh). The odd thing is that less than 1% of modern day Egyptians have the same genetic connection!
I’m also curious about the Rh- blood type which is high in Europe (and highest in Australia!) and in particular among the Basque people whose language is so unconnected to anything else. If anything the fact that the ‘alien’ blood group has been shown to exists makes redundant the idea that we all evolved from one great African matriarch i.e., the “Out of Africa” theory, one of the cornerstones of the traditional theory of man’s development.
Thanks for sharing that Ella. It’s very interesting to hear about the genetic connection between Egypt, Britain and France. Also very odd that only 1% of modern Egyptians have the same genetic connection!
That is really interesting! I know in Irish legends, it states that the current people of the island (said to be inheritors of the land after several other ‘races’) are the sons of Míl Espáine (Míl the Spaniard). I remember learning in Uni that a genetic study was done not too long ago of Irish people and found that there was a remarkably high genetic match with people from the Basque region.
I found it amazing how the ancient legends had already recorded the link thousands of years ago, which science only much later was even able to confirm, and yet there is this tendency to dismiss them as just stories. I find the migratory patterns of the ancient peoples so fascinating because there’s so much compelling evidence for it which seems to go against the accepted mainstream view. It makes me think there must be some mystery to uncover in it :)
That’s very interesting about the Irish-Spanish link Nathan. I remember you commenting on that a while back. Yes, it seems these ancient stories can tell us a lot, so it’s good that science is now starting to catch up in being able to verify some of these ancient myths and legends through modern testing and analysis.
Yes, that is interesting Nathan, and goes a long way to explain the darker hair of many Irish people which kinda goes against the expected lighter hair tones that you find in the British Isles.
So interesting to see all these links between peoples that traveled great distances over time.
This is such wonderful news! Thank you, Lara and Mark, and everyone who made it happen! I’m excited to start reading this. I remember how much I loved the tiny bit I learned about Norse and Greek mythology in school, and yet also how disappointing it was that it seemed to make no spiritual sense. Still, I was so drawn to the ancient religions, especially the Norse since it was part of my heritage. I felt I kept looking for something that would connect me to the Old Ways, so to speak :)
This is wonderful news Lara! I look forward so much to sitting down with a copy in my hands – I still remember the mystical feelings I got on my initial introduction to the Wisdom Bringers and their profound unifying religion in your and Mark’s book – it was like a veil was lifted and I could suddenly see the beauty of the divine hand guiding mankind. I felt that I was reading a truly precious and sacred work, one that connected me to my ancestors who I was suddenly seeing in their true light, and who felt present though long gone from this world. Most importantly the spiritual commonality between us became alive through the pages of that book and worked its way into my life. I await ‘The Ancient Religion of the Sun’ with similar anticipation!
It’s great to hear you’ve been quietly working away on exploring further into this incredible mystery and have yet even more insights into the Religion of the Sun to offer the world. I feel so grateful to have access to the wisdom of Mark and yourself through your work and say a heartfelt thanks – also to the strong devoted team around you making all this happen. It’s hard to fathom the impact a book like this might have upon individual’s lives and a greater collective understanding. I only hope that it travels as far and wide as the brave, seafaring Wisdom Bringers once did!
Yes, that’s right Ella. It’s hard to imagine the impact a book like this could potentially have on the lives of individuals, as well as bringing about a greater collective understanding. I also hope that it will travel as far and wide as the Wisdom Bringers did! :)
This Book looks amazing and and I am very grateful Mark and Lara for all your efforts and compiling this wonderful information, and its very exciting to see this new book. I really appreciate all the effort and care that has gone into it and also the help for humanity and I feel blessed to have access to this very powerful information . Many Thanks to you both , I also can’t wait to order a copy.
What wonderful news! And congratulations Lara and many thank you’s on our part, because this is such a momentous achievement toward helping bringing back the information and lost knowledge of the ancient religion of the sun back to reality. I really look forward to know more and understand better how it all connects together. And many thanks to everyone who worked to make this information come to fruition in book format :)
Today started out fresh and clear ,everything that was a burden seems lighter, then this news of the new book to top it off, congratulations and many thanks to the team and Lara and Mark, a good step forwards. Many people will find this so helpful to understand what all our newly found history is about. Looking forwards to reading and being able to pass on the information.
This is really exciting. Thank you, Lara, for all your hard work in conducting so much research and compiling it into a book. During the “silence”, I figured there must have been a lot going on behind the scenes and this is a nice surprise :)
And thanks to both Jennys, John, Priya, Dara, Jordan, and the rest of the team who supported this. I have placed my order and I’m really looking forward to the new book and being able to connect more with the sacred sites of the past and the gods of ancient texts and legends…
This is wonderful news I have been looking forward to receiving for a long while now but worth ever bit of the wait.The book looks amazing and I can’t wait to read it and learn more about the history of the Religion of the Sun, especially on the wisdom bringers and our ancient ancestors whom I am only just beginning to learn more about.
Thank you Lara and company for all your hard work in making all of this possible. Your tireless efforts for bringing this precious information to us freely without ever expecting or asking for money/fame in return and for doing it simply out of the love for humanity and truth is wholeheartedly appreciated.
Thank you very much Lara, this was a lovely surprise to read today :)
A special thanks to both you and Mark for your work with bringing the Religion of the Sun back out into the world again, which as you mentioned about other researchers, really has been a courageous act for the spirituality of the world. For me, its often been a very touching, uplifting thing that’s helped me connect to something higher. I remember years ago studying Celtic myths at uni and feeling that there was something there, but deciding somewhat sadly that it had all been lost with the passage of time. Thanks to you both for helping to reconnect our disjointed world to its richer past :)
Looking forward to reading the book!
Many thanks to you, your husband and everyone who helped with this project, it is a wonderful gift to humanity. I hope it will help all of us, and many others who are searching and trying to understand the spiritual principles behind the religion of the Sun.
What a nice surprise to see this new book being released! I should have known something was coming as that’s usually the case when things are ‘quiet’ for a period. Congratulations Lara on all your effort coming to fruition along with the help of the publishing team. The research that you and Mark have contributed has added mightily to the growing awareness of an alternative human history, that shatters paradigms and takes courage to speak out about. I’m really looking forward to reading this.
Thank you for your efforts!🙏🏻🌞
Hi Lara,
Congratulations with this monumental feat and a paramount source for generations to come. When I read about your encounter with the Being Odin, I was in respectful awe and simultaneously so happy for you. It might mean that such experiences can bring you and any who practise the Religion of the Sun closer to the truth. I can only imagine what in incredible journey it has been for you indeed!
With the publication of this work I have two important hopes: I really hope that this book can trigger an inner spark for so many more people that are looking for answers in life and to our distant past. I have noticed there are enormous amounts of people who are very much interested in our distant past and in finding the truth. I hope this book finds its way to many of them, so they can too, find out about the Religion of the Sun.
The other hope I have, is that all of us, who have our own inner path and the uncovering of the truth of our past close to our heart, can help revive this Religion of the Sun in a significant way and open up more opportunities so more people can finally find more meaning in their life.
I thank you for the opportunity to be part of this as I am truly blessed to have this incredible knowledge available. Also I want to send a big thank you to all the people that contributed to this work.
Lastly, I would like to say I really love how you build up the suspense: “What if I told you that the Egyptian god Osiris had been a real person, that Odin/Wotan of the Nordic/Germanic people was a real person too, and so was Quetzalcoatl and Viracocha of Central and South America?”
A beautiful result truly deserved.
A new dawn for the Religion of the Sun!
It’s an incredible moment really to see that there is actually a book on the Religion of the Sun in this world and in these times!
Thank you so much for this fervent hard work and great gift to us all and for Mark’s personal work which has been the life force from which this has sprouted afresh again.
There is now this incredible lineage between the beginning and now to this day, that gives us meaning, understanding and significance to what was lost within the earth.
I never was interested in ancient history, the way it was taught was distant, vague and like a memory that had no meaning to my life, my own existence, but all the work you and Mark have researched Lara has brought back a real feeling of connection, a lost memory of my own lineage and even a better understanding of myself through this and I hope, and believe, it will inspire many more people in the same way.
Great job team, the books are a joy to read in their artwork and layout too! :)
Wow! How very exciting.
A big warm and hearty Congratulations to you,Lara. What a tremendous work you have created! Thank you so, so much for all your hard work, dedication and, clearly, love and care that you have put into creating this book.
You had already given us information on the origins of the Religion of the Sun and Wisdom bringers through your very impressive and beautifully-presented You tube videos. To now see this all in one book is a rare thing and a real treat for all those of us with interest and a yearning to learn more.
In this day and age, telling the truth about the origins of humanity and its cultures, people and monuments is a heroic act, so Thank you!
I look forward to reading this magnificent book!
Thank you, Lara and everyone who contributed to the publishing of this book. I am sure I will enjoy reading it and I hope many more people around the world will find an inspiration and guidance through it.
A very big thank you to Mark who has always been the driving force to unsure this knowledge reaches humanity, and yourself Lara for your endless hard work and research, and of course the dedicated team helping behind the scenes. Congratulation to all, it’s deeply appreciated.
This day is special indeed, it’s very inspiring since this book has great potential to help so many people. The Sun Religion information and practices have been an unbelievable journey, it’s joins all the dots and resonates very deep within me. The evidence of a past world wide Sun civilization is undeniable, and hopefully we’ll get to witness the day that it flourishes once again all over our planet.
I’m looking forward to a copy of the book. Thanks again to all.
Fantastic cant wait to get a copy, timeless knowledge, thanks Lara and to all involved
Many Thanks to Lara and everyone concerned in this beautiful creation, shining the light of the sacred sun into our lives.
This is very exciting – I really enjoy reading about our very ancient past. Even as a young child I was fascinated with the figures of Ancient Egypt and later, equally as much, with the ancient Viking and South American cultures.
It seemed that much of the knowledge was fragmented and/or lost however, and much of the knowledge of the Sacred Sun was condemned to mere beliefs of ignorant primitive cultures. So this new book provides us an amazing opportunity, bringing all the bits and pieces of our ancient past together and reconnecting us with the power of the Sacred Sun.
Thanks so much for all your hard work in bringing this book to us Lara and everyone involved.
This looks fantastic Lara, thank you for all your hard work, can’t wait to get a copy!
There are many people throughout my life who have tried to convince me that I’ve been lied to with regards to everything that’s been taught about history. Unfortunately for them it’s a waste of time because I can’t recall being taught history, apart from a few things relevant to my own country which were mainly political.
Hopefully this book can fill in that gap; I’m very grateful for your research.
Haha, very funny Martin.
Seriously though, similar to what Jon mentioned below, how wonderful would it be to read about some of these things to children. Teaching them about the past, and with plenty of images of the Pyramids, Easter Island and the world’s many wonders! Or to tell of such things under a starlit sky, pointing up to the same stars the ancients also looked up to, to explain about their meaning, of nature, the knowledge of the seasons, one of the many tellings of the story of darkness against light etc., wouldn’t that be inspiring. And all of it, that deep inspiration and impression, could be carried somewhere deep and one day be remembered in adult life to add direction to an inner yearning. Having then, hopefully, also the practical information to actually explore it.
Writing this makes me think how in fact the modern world is a bit strange with its complete separation of children’s magical stories (if people even tell those at all anymore!) and ‘grown up reality.’ Wouldn’t it be more natural if there was more continuity, teaching about a magical connected whole? I can imagine that was the way it was for some ancient peoples and it seems a lot more natural. I guess it’s all because the modern people and society have become so locked in a mainly material and limited experience of life, and not knowing of or being interested in its greater purpose.
So I guess we’re in fact very lucky to be open to and have the opportunity now to learn about these ancient mysteries in such a way. Hope this opportunity will reach a lot more people in the world.
I totally agree Karim!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful for society to lift it’s eyes up from the tedium of earning a money at a dead end job that brings no real rewards no pleasure? I chucked when I read Lara’s description of how these historical personages and times were portrayed only as cartoons and caricatures (and still are), because that’s how I learnt about Odin. To be able to read afresh the history of who we are without the continuous and rather pompous idea that ‘we are better than our fore fathers’ will be wonderful. It’d be great to be able to tell factual stories to the young ones…
I look forward to opening the pages on this book that is sure to be very informative and eye opening!
I also thank the excellent work of Lara and the publishing support team. I know you all work very hard at getting this all together, so a very big thank you to all!
I would magical to have books for kids, not only for kids but for myself :)
Thank you very much Lara and team for the effort in doing the research and compiling all the info into a book!
I’m very excited to get a copy!
Congratulations!
Gosh this is so exciting! Definitely a special day. :) Well done Lara & team!
I can’t wait to read this book. The connections between so many cultures (in their buildings, sacred texts, symbolism, stories, music etc.) never ceases to amaze me, so it’s going to be really great to see many of these pieces of the puzzle come together and explained in one spot.
I’m also very intrigued to read about the wisdom bringers and the people who spread the Religion of the Sun around the world. It’s amazing to think about what they accomplished.
Thanks for all of your hard work Lara, and to all of those who helped put it together! :)
Lara thank you! Everyone who helped bring this book to print – thank you!
Can’t wait to get a copy and read more about the ancient religion of the sun! I will always be greatful to you and Mark for the research and wisdom you have shed on the solstices and equinoxes, and how these celebrations meant so much more than what we know about today. Without your work I would never fathom to consider how knowledge is infinite, how we may have one understanding or approach of something, but there is always new things to learn and grow from. I still remember the inner surprise I felt at the first introduction of this knowledge and the journey you and Mark have opened me to, through following your work many years ago. The experience and practice of delving into the religion of the sun brought me more and more happiness, yearning and perspective. Thank you infinitely.
I’ve been interested in ancient history as long as I can remember and always wanted to trace things as far back as I could. The work of the other researchers you mentioned and the information you’ve published has helped bring together a much more coherent narrative of human history, which has been really eye-opening for me.
However I find there are still questions unanswered, which is why its so exciting to see this new book, which I’m sure is going to fill in many new pieces of the puzzle. I really appreciate all the labour that went into it – thank you!
And I can’t wait to read it.
I too have so many questions unanswered. And it was when Lara made her excellent video about Odin/Wotan that left me rather amazed and wishing for even more information! The research that has been able to be threaded together is rather astonishing and I too can’t wait to see what’s between the covers of this book!
Well I’m really excited to get my copy!!
You know, as a child I’ve always loved ancient history, would regularly buy used books on ancient history and religions at book markets, and even majored in the history of ancient civilizations in university. Modern history never interested me much, but I always knew there’s something elusive and fascinating about the distant past, and it wasn’t until starting on this fascinating journey of exploring the ancient religion of the sun that I finally understood what it was that drew me to it. I can’t wait to read the book and gain new insights. Thanks so much for the book — it’s great to have a source that strings it all together.
Wow great news! Congratulations and thank you very much Lara for this book. I can’t wait to start reading it soon. Thanks to everyone who contributed to its publication. I hope it will contribute to a breakthrough into how people view our ancient ancestors and their religion.
Thank you so much Lara for all that you do, I really appreciate having someone with the amount of love and care that you have for humanity to bring together all of these threads of the ancient sun religion into one story that we can all make sense of. What a gift to everyone! Thank you to Mark as always and the publisher for your incredible contribution and pain-staking detailed work!
Thank you very much for sharing your research, looking forward to read this book!
So nice to see this, the actual publication itself of course with all its epic topic content, …but also the feeling of a flame of hope behind it which lives in the efforts being made to bring this knowledge forward so people can take up its inner practice.
Great to hear that you received such capable help Lara :-) in support of such a huge task and work you’ve done. So thanks to those guys too.
I’m looking forward to reading more details on some of the exciting topics covered in your videos and also especially to read about any new connections made and things you found out. I’m sure this will also be hugely helpful in opening new perspectives for people researching and learning about the past and the religion of the sun.
Once people get their hands on copies of the book it’ll bring up lots of topics for discussion I’m sure :-)! Looking forward to that too. I ordered mine from Amazon.co.uk just now.
Congratulations on the great effort to make it across the line and complete this book, and I’m sure you must also be happy that after some time behind the scenes the time has come for it to be revealed and published.
Sending my best wishes, hopes and strength to the success of this book. :-)
This is so great Lara, what a wonderful gift! Many thanks to you, Mark, and everyone who made this happen. It absolutely amazes me how you just keep going and discovering new things, and each your video (or this book I suppose) contains more and more information that you keep tirelessly unburying. The fascinating picture of the Religion of the Sun is becoming more and more real and detailed with every new sequel you release, filling the gaps, and finding the dots that connect seemingly unrelated pieces… What an exciting work this must have been for you! Just helping a bit in the past, and now again with some of the research has brought me so much inspiration and connection to our ancient past, the past that similarly to you, looked so dull and disconnected to me before. So I can only imagine how much inspiration and knowledge this work has brought you so far, and what an incredible journey this must have been.
Wishing you a lot of strength, Divine and material support, and can’t wait to read the book! :-)
This is great news, Lara! Many thanks to you, Mark, and everyone involved in the process of creating and releasing this book. This is a unique research and I’m really interested to learn about all the evidence and information you’ve gathered about the religion of ‘the lost civilization of the Sun’ as you’ve put it.
I have a secret hope that you’d cover Orpheus and the Dionysus/Zagreus/Apollo traditions in some of your videos/articles in the future, if they represented offshoots of the religion of the Sun.
And thank you for also being one of the people who stand for truth in their field of research!
I am also very thankful to Lara and Mark for their tireless efforts in standing up for the truth, among the chaos of confusion and misinformation out there.
What an awesome surprise to open the sakrosawel site today and seeing this post about the new book release. 😍 I had to check if I wasn’t dreaming, but the book is indeed available on Amazon, for real(!!). Thanks, Lara, and everyone on the team for making it available and all the hard work that went into it. 👏👏👏
The chapter The Lost Civilisation of the Sun chapter kept me captivated. So much of our history is scattered or deliberately kept hidden or even worse discredited or watered down.
Your recent posts and videos have also inspired me to look deeper into parts of the Religion of the Sun. For example, I never knew that the ancient Celtic tribes occupied larger parts of Europe (far beyond the borders of Ireland) and that they were regarded as very dedicated religions peoples. Before looking deeper into our past, whenever I thought of early history, the image of people in animal skin, the hunter-gatherer type sitting around a campfire would appear, nothing more. I’m very grateful you (and other researchers) have shown how much to the contrary this really is.
I’m looking forward to reading the new book. It’ll be an invaluable addition to anyone’s bookshelf.
Yes, it’s great to have this true perspective on ancient history Roy and interesting to hear that you were able to delve more deeply into the history of the ancient Celts. Good luck with your continuing research! :)
That’s the very real problem isn’t it? Everything that’s taught about history has been watered down and made sterile, safe and tediously boring. From the research revealed so far, it’s sure to be a great book.
As Roy says, “It’ll be an invaluable addition to anyone’s bookshelf”…I wonder if there’s any chance some of these books could be released in Hardcover?
Hi Craig,
I found that wrapping books with contact paper is quite effective for this case.
Thanks Fotis, I’ll need some contact paper for my book.
Yes, I agree Craig. “Tediously boring” is a very good description of how dry and sterile the modern telling of history has become, along with many other fields of academic study. I even remember attending an introduction to further history study at school, where the history teacher commented along the lines of “If you’ve been swimming around in a cesspool for the last few years, you should think about whether you want to carry on swimming in the same cesspool for another few years!” Not an inspiring introduction to the topic! :)
I also tried watching some documentaries that offered explanations on the construction of Stonehenge and the moai statues of Easter Island. Both of these had reconstructions of someone’s theory on their origins, it in an attempts to make the programs dramatic, but underneath they lacked any real depth, which still left me disinterested.
By contrast, it’s a real privilege to be alive at a time when the truth about our collective spiritual past is now being revealed in such a profound and inspiring way. It fills in a missing longing that I think many people have, but just don’t know where to start looking.
How epic. I’m so, so excited to read this book. A huge thanks to you, Lara, and the team of light workers, I’ll call ’em, that’ve contributed to its production :D Reading about the tasks performed, I could picture all of you working away at it and I’m very grateful for your efforts.
I almost can’t believe there’s a resource like this today that pieces together … I was going to write “everything important you could ever wish to know about” but, to leave room for previous and future works, I’ll stick to “our ancient past and its very real connection to us as beings on this planet and the spiritual potential that we have.” All these clues from so many parts of the world put together in a coherent and relevant way that it goes so far as to truly revive the religion of the ancients so that any interested individual today can learn of its practice and take up the path to experience it. I look forward to delving deeper into all this evidence that keeps stacking up. The prospect alone has me feeling very uplifted.
Thank you so much for your dedication.
Congratulations Lara!
I am very happy to see the publication of a new book focusing on the wisdom bringers of the past. It is unexpected, but much awaited for.
Over the last few years you and Mark brought forward the notion that wisdom bringers of the past (Osiris, Odin, Svarog and others) were real people. That was eye opening! Ever since then I was interested in details on who they were and what they taught, as well as in a framework for me to do my own research into them, which sounds like this book is all about.
Thank you also for bringing attention to Graham Hancock, Thor Heyerdahl, and Martin Doutre. I am also amazed at how much they have been unable to uncover and how they persisted against opposition. Likewise, I have also found inspiring the contributions of others (in different fields) who notwithstanding pressure did real research and uncovered valuable information. In many cases their examples and struggles are a real inspiration and a great help to many today.
Lastly, I want to thank Mark. Without his clear explanation of the keys to objective learning and personal experience I would make very little use of the teachings of the world’s wisdom bringers.
I look forward to start reading!
Hi Lara, I am so excited to see this post about the new book release; huge congratulations to you on that! And also, thank you very much for all the hard work you have done on it, it is a very important milestone indeed that this book now exists and is available to the world!
Big thanks also to the publishing team: Jenny, Jon, Priya, and Dara; and to Jordan & Jenny for all of your efforts in contributing to this very important project to help make it a reality for the benefit of all. And I am also very grateful to all the supporters out there in the community who have helped support Lara to be able to produce this book.
And of course, infinite thanks to Mark without whom we would not have a clue as to the depth and breadth of all this!
As a teenager I had a vague poetic idea that things in nature can be taken as a reflection of the condition of man and that was God’s way of giving humanity some clues but it has only been because of Mark’s work that I have come to learn it is actually real and so much more about it.
In practicing and reading about this religion, I have come to realise that not only does the design of the universe purposefully teach about spiritual principles as a living metaphor for the internal but also there are no co-incidences; every day life events can happen with such synchronous relevance to what you are trying to learn about internally that it speaks so loudly to there being a guiding hand behind it all.
For me all this is proof that this religion is very true, living and real and can be very much alive today in your life if you want it, just as it seems ancient peoples did and had. This new book looks to be very informative and inspiring to learn how it all happened in ancient times and the incredible legacy of the wisdom bringers which still has its resonance today.
May wonderful big things come to help spread the light of the ancient religion of the sun to the world in this modern revival during these dark times. This book is definitely going to be a great part of that, its release is a special day indeed.
Thank you all once again, may you be greatly rewarded inwardly.
David
…to add to my previous comment – Congratulations! Really! This incredible and vital part of our history has been in darkness for so long, and you have brought it to light in a way that no other single researcher has – you and Mark have returned to us our common heritage of the Religion of the Sun, and enabled its modern practice, which is huge, so huge, life giving, hope giving… The work that has gone into it must have been immense. I really want to see it given back to you in the efforts all of us can make to support your work and practice the Religion of the Sun in our lives, so that more light could be brought to the world, and that it could spread wider.
I really wish you and Mark and the team all that you need materially and spiritually to continue your incredible work. Once again, thank you, thank you.
Wow, this sounds amazing. Can’t wait to delve deeper and learn more about all these topics you’ve been covering on Sakro Sawel. It’s clear that a huge work of effort, wisdom and love has gone into this book. Thank you so much for putting it out there, and joining the small ranks of those heroes you mentioned, who dare tell the truth in our age.
Yes, just having a look at the ‘topics covered’ list makes me wish I had access to the book already. I’m sure the printing and postage etc. won’t be too long though I believe :-)
Hi Lara,
thank you for releasing your book. Honestly I did expect the video :). The book is, indeed, very nice surprise and now I am rushing to find out where I can buy the book.
If you are interested I can start translating when I get the book into the Czech language.
Thank you again for your effort to bring the light into the history that has been changed so many times,.
I am looking forward to reading it.
I also thought that it would be great to have this book available in different languages so people everywhere can learn about their sacred past and heritage. In my country for instance people know English in general, yet I feel not many would dare attempt a whole book in English and about such a rich topic too. Maybe it’s a bit early to say this as it has just been published and I haven’t got a copy yet :) but if it’s the right thing and when the time is right, I’d be absolutely honoured and would love to translate this book into Finnish.
That’s great news Lara, a very special day indeed!
The more I learn about and practice the Religion of the Sun, the more it peels back and makes alive the layers of history which previously felt pretty dry and remote to me as well. I now feel a connection to the past in a way I never had before – like a thread we can pick up that joins us into a stream of timeless spirituality – and looking into the expression of the Religion of the Sun in ancient cultures has become a great inspiration for me. It’s incredibly inspiring to think that there was once around the world this global religion, and that through the work Mark and yourself have done (along with everyone else supporting you) we can practice this religion today.
Can’t wait to get a copy of the book :)
“like a thread we can pick up that joins us into a stream of timeless spirituality” — very nicely expressed, David. Oftentimes, that’s exactly how it feels, bridging the connection between our purpose in life now and what it was for those that also practiced the Religion of the Sun throughout history.
Congratulations Lara and the team!
What wonderful news and definitely worth to wait for it!
Really looking forward getting this book!
As you said all these ancient periods in time, stories, legends and myths have become like a fairytale in nowadays and is only recently when some researches came up and sed light as well new discoveries, like at the Gobekli Tepe.
Yours and Mark’s input it’s remarkable and I hope to generate a momentum, to influence more academics, mainstream media and people, and to appreciate this hidden treasure and its great potential for the humankind.
Thank you!
All the best with this book distribution!
As part of the book production team, I’ve had the privilege of reading the book in full. Lara has done an amazing job of bringing together evidence of the lost civilization of the sun and the spread of the ancient Religion of the Sun throughout the world.
While other researchers have demonstrated various aspects of the existence of lost civilizations, no one has been able to write/talk definitively about the religion they had. What’s so different about this book is Lara is actively practicing the Religion of the Sun (as are we), and so has an authority based on experience.
It continues to fascinate me looking to the source of the Indo-European traditions and others influenced by the lost civilization of the sun.
As a side note, I realized a few days ago that I would have loved getting a book like this when I was a kid, as I was very interested in ancient civilizations and mysteries and would often read the encyclopaedia at home. Not to say I don’t love the book now as an adult, but it’s something I really have always been interested in!
Very happy to see it released and to be a practitioner of the Religion of the Sun. It’s great to be a part of something truly alive (and being revived more and more).
I agree Jon, and was thinking the same… How there have been these fragments of our ancient past uncovered by different hard-working and courageous people all over the world, fragments that are fascinating and ring true, but only through this groundbreaking discovery of Lara and Mark we can now learn about the uniting element of them all – the Religion of the Sun, its practices, principles, and its founders in our current age. What an amazing spiritual heritage and a powerful spiritual pillar to stand on.
Very happy to see this come out today! I can corroborate what Jon has said regarding how the book communicates this important information and helps tie together many loose pieces about the Religion of the Sun. The depth of research and attention to detail that has gone into it is quite remarkable.
Jon, I also used to love reading about myths and legends as a child in encyclopedias and colourful picture books. Although I was left in wonder and awe, growing up I felt there just wasn’t that ”aha! this is why… this is the purpose of what they were all trying to say and have been practicing over centuries, this is the hardship they went through to highlight an incredible cosmic teaching, these were real people who made a huge impact…who contributed massively to the spiritual welfare of living beings… ” – the religion of the sun thankfully brings in a breath of life to the two-dimensional history pages. How lucky we truly are to have everything pieced together.
Yes, that’s right Olga. We are very lucky to have so many diverse fragements not only pieced together into a coherent whole, but also expanded upon in such a powerful and inspiring way.
Wouldn’t that be great Jon? It’s wonderful to think that there will be kids with the same eagerness to learn about ancient history that you had, who will now be able to actually find something relevant and informative today, which fills in the many gaps a purely academic perspective will never have and puts the practice of The Religion of the Sun back into modern society in a very practical way.
Thanks guys for all your help in the book production. I’m so grateful that there is a dedicated team, who are always there to help Lara and Mark fulfil their goals in getting this vital information out to the public.
