• Seed of Knowledge, Stone of Plenty: Understanding the Lost Technology of the Ancient Megalith-Builders
  ~Usually Ships Within 24 Hours
-John Burke, Kai Halberg / Hardcover 255 pages / Published November 2005
Monuments in the Americas and beyond stand as silent testimony to the achievements of ancient technology. The scope of these mammoth structures has amazed generations. Could there be some sophisticated knowledge behind the designs? Why would such tremendous effort be made to construct huge mounds in North America, temples in South America, henges in Europe and even the pyramids in Egypt? Especially when research shows that the structures were erected not when times were good, but during desperate times of famine. Could the need to increase food production be the real purpose behind some, or all, of these structures?
These intriguing questions have led authors John Burke and Kaj Halberg on a journey to unravel the mysterious technology behind the ancient megaliths. The scientific findings revealed in Seed of Knowledge, Stone of Plenty point to the likelihood that these monuments were built for the very practical use of amplifying naturally occurring electromagnetic fields in the earth in order to increase crop yields—a technology that only recently has been replicated by modern science.
Burke and Halberg show evidence that ordinary crop seeds treated with pulses of electromagnetic energy have a greater resistance to stress, germinate and grow faster than untreated seeds. The same results can be achieved by exposing seeds to the concentrated earth energy at the ancient monuments. In Seed of Knowledge, Stone of Plenty Burke and Halberg present the scientific evidence behind their startling, original theory. Their electromagnetic readings for numerous mound and temple sites confirm heightened activity. Here are their illustrations detailing the scientific findings, dramatic photographs of electromagnetically charged orbs and maps detailing the locations of electromagnetic fields—many as close as a day trip away from anywhere in North America. Using a magnetometer and electrostatic voltmeter Burke has taken hundreds of readings at approximately 80 different ancient sites including Carnac, Avebury, Stonehenge as well as assorted American mounds and Mesoamerican pyramids. The results are clear and compelling indicating that these ancient sites are places where subtle energies emanate from the Earth or are enhanced by the structure itself. Beyond the extensive research Burke also conducts a number of agricultural experiments and finds that seeds placed at such sites are stressed by the ambient currents resulting in higher propagation rates, quicker maturity and improved crop yields. Thus it seems that ancient myth and folklore about taking seeds to "sacred sites to be blessed" may be true and indeed have a highly practical purpose. Seed of Knowledge, Stone of Plenty is an intriguing exploration of the power man culls from nature with the most basic tools. The theory is a fascinating eyeopener. Basically, the authors of this book enlightened me concerning the use of ancient pyramids and Native American mounds to engender better seed growth. The pictures and the graphs help prove the authors' thesis. Forget genetic modification, this book explains how you can grow bigger better plants by channeling the forces of nature to enhance seeds. What a fantastic discovery in this age of organic preference. Also captivating, the book chronicles, scientifically, all the ways these communities prospered by channeling these natural forces. There is even a "do it yourself" section with simple instructions for those who want to try this at home. Any enviromentalist will be entranced by the findings in this book as I am.
