West explains that nineteenth century hermetic scholar Schwaller de Lubicz discovered a lost key, which decoded the language of this ancient temple—the key that ‘at long last enabled the temple to speak again’. xvi De Lubicz demonstrated the various rooms, walls and components of the temple each communicate a teaching of the aspects of living man that it corresponds to. In other words, the ancient Egyptians went to great lengths to encode their teachings in their monuments, because: Poole is a high-functioning autistic person with an intellectual range in the ‘Very Superior’ category (Weschler III, 2005). He’s member of American Mensa, an organisation whose only requirement for membership is to have an Intelligence Quotient (IQ) in the top 2% of the population. In standardised scholastic testing, Poole was ranked in the 99 th percentile and pronounced ‘untestable’ in his highest scoring areas: deductive reasoning, memorisation, pattern recognition, and communication. In other words, the test couldn’t find limitations in these categories. Ed Leedskalnin was a most cryptic soul, once you get to know his methods. I laugh to myself sometimes when I think about Ed’s brainteasing style of knowledge sharing. If Ed and I had somehow met and become friends, I would have introduced him to comic books. I think he would have been a big fan of another Edward with the same penchant for encoding data in clever ways: Edward Nygma, ‘The Riddler’ from the Batman comic series.

Man of Mystery

In the context of Ed Leedskalnin, his cryptic writing on electromagnetism, his obsession with astronomy and astrophysics, and his mysterious engineering abilities as evident in the Coral Castle, this scientific finding is especially intriguing. In fact, in the same year—2018—Gaia reports: John Martin (2012). Coral Castle Construction: How One Man Created a Megalithic Wonder. ISBN 978-0988429703. He wrote that a mother's most important task is to ensure that her daughter remains "chaste and faithful": [6] Coral Castle's own promotional material says Edward Leedskalnin was 26 years old when he was suddenly rejected by his 16-year-old fiancée Agnes Skuvst in Latvia, just one day before the wedding. Leaving for the United States, he came down with allegedly terminal tuberculosis, but spontaneously healed, stating that magnets had some effect on his disease. [ citation needed]

Collection of Latvia’s historical images by Māris Goldmanis, Researcher at University of Latvia. These are the natural tools with which Poole decrypts and translates the brilliance of Leedskalnin’s ideas. This leaving behind of preconceived ideas is what I’ve spent the best part of a decade doing, to do the mystery and ingenuity of Edward Leedskalnin justice. I realised that if I were to be successful in my work, I had to decide that everything I had ever learned or been told about the Coral Castle was wrong. With a blank slate, on the basis of zero assumptions, and using the tools of observation, deductive reasoning and the instructions that Ed gives in his books, I set about my task. The Secret Schematic and the Perpetual Motion Holder This writing is lined up so that when you read it, you are facing East, and everything you read about magnetic current, it will be just as good for your electricity.’

Born in Latvia on January 12 1887, Edward (Ed) Leedskalnin was a self-taught engineer who single-handedly built the Coral Castle in Homestead, Florida, after emigrating to the USA in 1912. We know little about his childhood, apart from that his parents weren’t wealthy, and that he was only formally educated until the age of nine or ten. It’s suggested that Ed loved reading, and that he learned stonemasonry skills from his father. We know that by the time Ed was in his twenties, he could read, write and probably speak at least three languages. Having spent the best part of a decade scrutinising Magnetic Current and Ed’s other booklet, Mineral, Vegetable, and Animal Life, I can safely say that Coral Castle theorists have missed the mark on this one. What better information do we have at our disposal in understanding this mysterious accomplishment than the writing and monument that Leedskalnin himself left behind? McClure and Heffron explain why Ed’s work, the intuitive starting point in our unravelling of this fascinating riddle, has been neglected by most Coral Castle theorists: RL Poole is an independent researcher, author and speaker who has spent the past decade and a half scrutinising the cryptic written work and mysterious monument left to us by the late Edward Leedskalnin. The Leedskalnin Codex: Breakthroughs In Our Understanding of the Coral Castle is at once the culmination of these years of work, and the beginning of a line of thought that takes the scientific ideas and teachings of Leedskalnin seriously. Coral Castle is an oolite limestone structure created by the Latvian-American eccentric Edward Leedskalnin (1887–1951). It is located in unincorporated territory of Miami-Dade County, Florida, between the cities of Homestead and Leisure City. The structure comprises numerous large stones, each weighing several tons, sculpted into a variety of shapes, including slab walls, tables, chairs, a crescent moon, a water fountain and a sundial. [2] It is currently a privately operated tourist attraction. Coral Castle is noted for legends surrounding its creation that claim it was built single-handedly by Leedskalnin using reverse magnetism or supernatural abilities to move and carve the stones. [3] [4] History [ edit ] Between Ed’s arrivals in New York in 1912 and in Florida City in 1923, he moved often, spending time living in the Pacific Northwest and in Washington, among other places. At some point during the winter of 1922-1923, an estate agent called Ruben Moser found Ed lying in a heap on the side of the road. Moser helped Ed into the car and drove him home. Ed was seriously ill with a respiratory disease and was on the verge of dying. It has been suggested by eyewitness statements that Ed had been wandering around with a ‘witching rod’, capable of determining the presence of water or ‘energy’ in the earth. One eyewitness claimed that when asked what the rod was for, Ed just said, ‘when I find it, I’ll know it.’ iii

We know that Ed was so preoccupied by astronomy that he built astronomical features into his castle. We also know that Ed was preoccupied by the principles of electromagnetism, for he published complex, cryptic, books on magnetism and astrophysics. Jeff Klinkenberg.
