OSHO Dynamic Meditation

On the Wings of a Kite

How were the pyramids built? How were obelisks erected? A new theory from a group of American amateur kite enthusiasts has provided new inroads in trying to answer this mystery.

Thus, the task is not so much to see
what no one yet has seen,
but to think what nobody yet has thought
about that which everybody sees.
Schopenhauer

This site explores Dr. Maureen Clemmons' theory that the ancient Egyptians harnessed wind to build the massive megalithic monuments of antiquity. It recounts several field experiments demonstrating this concept starting with small scale, Goddard-type experiments using modern materials, a 400-lb obelisk and children's kites to a 3.4-ton obelisk with a nylon parafoil. This site also explores the concept that many symbols in ancient Egyptian art are really renderings of tools used to build pyramids & temples.
