Opening the Way Publishing Company Presents: Your Trip to Egypt Has Arrived! Greetings! This is Lawrence of the Opening The Way Publishing Company. Your Trip of a Lifetime to Egypt (Kmt) Tour, where you will visit the only remaining wonder of the world still standing, the Pyramids, is one year away. But the Pyramids are not the only sites you will visit on this tour and are not the only wonders. Most of the sites regularly featured on documentaries such as the Valley of the Kings and Queens, both Temples of Amun, Temple of Heru (Horus), Temple of Het-Heru, Temple of Aset (Isis) and Abu Simbel are included in this tour package. Upon arrival to each site you will quickly notice the engineering and mathematical brilliance displayed in the structures made of stone. Massive is the first word that comes to mind when attempting to describe the size and scale of each one. And even amid structures larger than any others anywhere else in the world you find within them an attention to detail that words cannot describe. In the pages that follow are the specific details about the tour. The dates of the tour, itinerary, pictures with the names of the two 5 and one 4 Star lodging hotels, meals and of course all-inclusive pricing details. Additionally, you will find a special pricing plan for those who act now to secure their space. 1 Finally, the Waiver, Cancellation and Refund Policies and Registration Form are provided. Over the next three months, through pre-recorded videos sent to your email address, you will be provided with specific details about how to prepare for the tour and what to expect when we arrive in Egypt. They will arrive by email once every two weeks and will begin on or about two weeks from today. The topics and approximate date of delivery of each will be provided to you within the next 3-5 days. Many questions you may have, if not all of them, will be answered in the enclosed pages and prerecorded videos that will begin in two weeks. For those of you without a roommate rest assured that we will find one for you. For those of you with special needs that we should be aware feel free to reach out to me at lrmathews60@yahoo.com or phone number provided on the Registration Form. I m looking forward to being a part of Your Trip of a Lifetime to Egypt (Kmt)!

Greetings Blessings and Peace to You! (Dua Pose) The pose I am doing you will see often on the Temple reliefs that we will visit on the tour. Dua means adorations and when you see it on the reliefs it is being done to acknowledge the essence of a person that is beyond physicality. Lawrence Mathews (Anpu Waset), has studied the culture and philosophy of the ancient native peoples of the land today called Egypt for the past 15 years under the guidance of Dr. Muata Ashby. During this time through his Opening The Way Publishing Company he created the Inspirational Philosophy genre of writing and has published five books, three Special Mini-Reports and a Know Thyself three and six month e-course. Inspirational Philosophy applies ancient philosophical principals to common situations of today in an inspirational way. In the earlier time of his life he was an educator for ten years, a professional manager for five years and practiced law for ten years. As an attorney, he has practiced before the Michigan Supreme Court, the Michigan Court of Appeals and the United States District Courts for both the Eastern and Western Districts of Michigan. He believes that the purpose of life is to Know Thyself at the deepest level of our being by awakening to the answer to the question Who Am I? His products and programs assist others with achieving this purpose. The secrets of the universe cannot be discovered through study and research alone but the honest search for truth and the development of an incorruptible mind qualifies the seeker for higher instruction. Make your life the subject of intense inquiry, in this way you will discover its goal, direction and destiny. -Ancient African Egyptian Proverbs 8 P a g e
