It is without question, that Ancient Egypt was a very "hot" and popular spot for deity worship. From our 21st century perspective, it seems that the people of the time went to a great extent to build magnificent monuments in order to "connect" their beliefs to an after life and to the deities who "ruled" those other dimensions. The evidence is in the stone that survived time. From the earliest pyramids, to the great sphinx of Giza built appr. 2600 BCE.

Believers of Ancient Alien Theory, aka Ancient Astronauts, also agree that there was some type of influence in the area from foreign beings who had "powers" or technology which was greater then human technology of the time.

There are many questions and debates...
* who built the pyramids?
* why did they build the pyramids?
* how did they build the pyramids?
* why Egypt?

I have been researching these topics for many many years, and so I wanted to share some collective insight, and hopefully enlighten you with a "different" perspective. Another piece of the puzzle was revealed to me today when I was introduced to the concept of the 288 Sparks by the great Hassidic Master of Chabad of Palo Alto, Rabbi Yosef Levin.

First off, a bit of a background...
During the great event of "Shevirat HaKelim" (Shattering of the Vessels) and "Seder Hishtalshelut" (Order of Development), the Kabbalistic version of the Big Bang if you will, G-D cast down "Heavenly Sparks" into the physical realm in order for man to "reveal" and "elevate" back to the spiritual dimensions. These Spiritual Sparks, exist today in everything physical and in my opinion, can be understood similar to how scientists perceive the existence of Star Dust in each and everyone of us. "We are all made of stardust" is a known and accepted scientific concept. In order to "elevate" these sparks, there are special rules and deeds to follow, but that is a whole different discussion which we will save for later...

So, how does this all tie together? What does the sparks have to do with pyramids and deity worship in Ancient Egypt?
Allow me to explain...

It is said, that out of the 288 Heavenly Sparks, 202 landed in Egypt!!!

So now imagine this...
HaShem, The G-D of gods, sends and hides these Heavenly Magical Sparks from a different dimension in this desert land called Egypt on this Planet called Earth, a tiny hidden rock, floating around in this vast Space...
These Sparks contain the power to bring Earth back to The Garden of Eden...To bring back Heaven on Earth, if only they can be revealed.
Other alien gods hear of this...
The treasure hunt begins...
They race to Earth using their advanced technology...
They find this land is being occupied by a native race called Humans...
They begin to search Planet Earth in a quest to find the magic...they scan the oceans and the land.
Going tribe by tribe...naturally influencing people and cultures around the planet in their journey to find the sparks.
Some people fall for their powers and create idols and monuments in worship and envy of these gods.
All of a sudden, a group of deities pick up on a lead...
"The Sparks are in a land called Egypt"
They immediately fly over.
They begin influencing the people of the area, they rule using the fear of their technology, and begin to build their own energy sources...pyramids, sphinx, monuments, etc...
They began to use and manipulate man as tools / slaves to try to find these sparks, and hide them from being discovered by man.

But, these Sparks, where NOT intended to be given to these gods, quite the opposite.
The reason why the Sparks where hidden and sent to Earth to begin with, are for Man, sons of Adam to elevate, NOT for the foreign Alien gods who come from the "other side". Those are the gods who did not deserve the sparks, they abuse their powers, trying to fool and rule man with their own selfish and wicked intensions. A simple explanation to why it was not intended for them is, if it was intended for them, where are these gods now?
The G-D of gods...He created the Heavens, Space and the Sky under which the limited deities can be observed by the limited human eye. Did they have powers and advanced technology? Sure. But nothing compared to HaShem, Source of All Sources, who cannot be defined, even by a single point. So The Sparks, where simply not for them...

So the next question is, what happened to the rest of the Sparks? Where did they go?
The answer is, the remaining 86 sparks split into countless minute sparks, which can be found in everything physical today.
After the Exodus from Egypt, we are left to work to reveal and elevate the remaining sparks by doing good deeds...G-D'ly acts...which are specifically defined in "The Manual to Reveal Sparks" aka "The Torah".

I hope you enjoyed, and please feel free to ask any questions in the comments below.

Kind Regards,
Jacob
