Egyptian temples were built for the official worship of the gods and in commemoration of the pharaohs in ancient Egypt and regions under Egyptian control. Temples were seen as houses for the gods or kings to whom they were dedicated. This book is about the author's memory of a lost time. "I saw my mother walk before me, up the elegant ancient stair case, she stooped in awe at the temple opening. The carvings were so vivid, so detailed and embraced by bursting colors as well as the suns heating light, which made the colors change every minute. Birds greeted us welcome with their beautiful singing, it was as if the structure had enchanted them. There was so much life in the Temple of a million years at Abydos, and yet it is a Death temple. As we entered the well over 2000 year old temple, I was struck by all the pylons. The Next room was the same, pylons everywhere. Then I suddenly realized something very intriguing... I went back to the first room and looked around, at the walls, at the images.. Then I went back to the second room where my mother was standing, still in awe of it all. I looked around there, at the walls at the images, then I quickly walked into the next room... It was like if a light bolt just turned on over my head.... I could not wait to get back to my books, to see if what I saw, was actually there.. if my thoughts made any real sense... It was one of those moments, where you just go, nah... it can't be what I am are thinking.."
