Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes the Gospel story on the resurrection of the daughter of Jairus as a portal to the immense legacy of our ancestors. This legend is interpreted as an image of the Sacred Marriage celebrated in Mystery Religions. Jesus and the daughter of Jairus represent the Sun and Moon in opposition in the sky, when ancient Egyptians celebrated the wedding of Osiris and Isis at the Summer Solstice in the Age of Taurus. This hieros-gamos occurred on the Earth when river Nile fecundated the land and in Heaven when the Sun faced the first Full Moon after the Summer Solstice. Jesus bending to take the dead girl by the hand symbolizes the Sun setting while the Moon rises in the East. In a mystical sense, Jesus represents our Higher Self rescuing our Lower Self represented by the Jairus' daughter. The author comes to this conclusion using comparative Mythology, historical references, etymology of the names, Astronomic data hidden in the text, gematric values of Hebrew and Greek terms, and Sacred Geometry. His research is supported by more than one thousand reference notes! Farjani's work is a leap forward in the technique of interpretation of myths, quite different of the practices used until now. His decoding of the Vasily Polenov's painting (see in the cover) is made in a way that turns the conclusion precise and irrefutable. It could be said that this book can transform comparative mythology into an exact science, using numbers, measures and astronomical data, and could be considered a landmark in the history of Comparative Mythology and Astro-Theology. On the other hand, if you want to discover something new, out of the common place, or enter a sector of reality hitherto unexplored, do not miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in astonishment and ecstasy which these Mysteries invite, seduce, entice and frighten us since immemorial times.
