Co-Director of Khemit Anicent Mysticsm, Teacher, Lecturer, Artist, Life Counsellor
Patricia Awyan
Co Director of the Khemit School of Ancient Mysticism, Teacher, Lecturer, Artist and Life Counselor
From a very young age, Patricia knew that she would one day be going home to Egypt. Having been born with a need to know, she has spent much of her life on a personal quest for knowledge, wisdom and spiritual fulfillment. Patricia's strong and vital connection to Nature and interest in the mystical and physical sciences propelled her into a lifelong study of the ancient mysteries.
As a long time student in metaphysical, spiritual and esoteric subjects and traditions, Patricia's eclectic spiritual background serves as a strong foundation to support to her work. She became of student of Khemitology after meeting world renowned, indigenous Wisdom Keeper, Abdel Hakim Awyan (1926-2008), on her first trip to Egypt in 2005. It was during her third journey to Egypt that she would meet, and fall in love with her husband, Yousef Awyan. Together, she and Yousef created The Khemit School of Ancient Mysticism as an open forum to share the teachings of his father, Hakim, and to continue on with the exploration and research of the ancient mysteries, both on and off the sites. They guide independent explorers that come to their doorstep from all over the world, and host their own tours several times each year.
Patricia’s focus has been on relating the secrets, symbolism and mysteries of the ancients to the shifting energies of our current reality. She lectures and has created online lessons that speak of our eternal cycling through golden and dark ages, and how the evidence left behind, by the very ancient Khemitians (Egyptians), portrays a civilization that far surpassed our own both technologically and spiritually. Much of what we think is REAL- is an illusion. However, the illusion serves to challenge and inspire us to grow and raise our own levels of awareness-- and to remember how to live resonantly with our natural world. Patricia illustrates how the ancients left us a blueprint that maps out the truth of the beauty, perfection and infinite possibilities that exist within and outside every one of us-- if we are willing to view our world from a higher perspective, as symbolized by the eye of Horus.

Lecture Subjects
- Discovering the most powerful secrets left to us by the ancients, despite the ongoing transformation and misinterpretation of their symbols and mythologies.
The Pantheon of Egyptian Neteru (gods and goddesses) actually symbolize aspects and/or forces of nature with multi-dimensional meanings and significance-- including being representative of the 360 senses that the indigenous say we all once had, in a higher dimensional Golden Age called the Age of Aten.
Patricia will discuss how we have been purposely given false interpretations of many of the ancient symbols and mythologies and how many of the original meanings were transformed and retold throughout different time periods, geographical areas and from differing cultural perspectives. Mythologists and symbologists often forget that the myths and symbols have been formed and transformed over thousands, if not, tens of thousands of years of history. And not only this --the secrets were hidden through layers of different interpretations directed toward different groups of people. The most powerful secrets were only entrusted to a select few.
Patricia relates to a heritage that has been passed down through the ages via an oral tradition of indigenous Egyptian (mostly female) wisdom keepers. They speak of a time in "pre-history --10,000 - 65,000 years ago or more when there was a highly advanced civilization living here during a great Golden Age on the planet. This was a matriarchal civilization that revered the strength and wisdom of the "mother"-- who they related to the creation energy of all that is. Everything is vibration; everything exists in waveform---the sin wave. It is the Neter, Hathor (primordial mother energy) that gives this sin wave the spark of "life" through Sound! This is why so many cultures revere the serpent energy which is the basis for all that exists in our three dimensional reality including our very own DNA.
The Egyptian Pantheon of Neteru were not created to be worshiped like the gods of our current "religions". They are multi-level aspects or forces of Nature---that combine to reflect the nature of our reality. Patricia will speak about these Neteru and what they represent --as well as the spiraling cycles -and cycles within cycles, of our existence. The indigenous here in Egypt concur with the wisdom keepers from around the globe: We have migrated through the end of a long Dark Age, and are experiencing the dawning of a new Golden Age that the indigenous here call the Age of Kheper, symbolized by the Winged Scarab.
When we trace the migration of symbols and legends back through the ages we make many fascinating discoveries. The truth of who we are and what we are capable of is beyond our scope of understanding---but the implications are mind boggling! We (not aliens), were the Gods and Goddesses that built and created the megalithic monuments and pyramid networks as energy devices. The abilities we deem to be supernatural or godlike, are perfectly natural gifts that we have all forgotten we once had and can have again!
- The ancient and still very active Sacred Sites of Egypt (and all over the world) are capable of interacting with, and transforming us today.
The indigenous tell us that the ancient Khemitians called the Pyramids and other energy devices Per Neters, or houses of energy. They named their Temples- Per Bas or houses of spirit and created them both with a perfection of sacred geometrical form and mathematics, along with a combination of specific natural elements and on top of aqueducts and manmade waterways and ley lines that pulse intense energies from within the earth. Many of the monuments are perfectly laid out according to the four cardinal directionsand many reflect and interact with different solar and stellar events and maybe even the stars themselves.
It is no accident that people who come to Egypt often find that their entire lives change when they return home. The ancient concept of pilgrimage was not created to fulfill a religious obligation, but rather, as an opportunity to heal the body, mind and spirit, to re-awaken the senses and literally raise ones levels of awareness and consciousness.
What is evident to usis that we are affected by our experiencing of these still alive and powerful sites today. Patricia will speak about how the temples, symbols and the pantheon of Neteru are reflective of an external universe and a universe within our own physicality. Alchemy and Chemistry are words that are derived from the label for ancient Egypt Khemit which can refer to an alchemy of the physical and/or the etheric. As we walk up the consistently rising star gate path of many of the temples here, our consciousness and our levels of awareness are gradually elevated, as we approach the powerful Holy of Holies...representing our very own Pineal Gland, our own energetic portal to all that is. Patricia will address how we can enhance these spiritual and healing experiences through resonant sound and meditation, offering us the opportunity to transcend dimensions.
ESPN Anchor/Reporter
Kenny Mayne
Commentator
Los Angeles SportsCenter Anchor; The Mayne Event; Kenny Mayne’s Wider World of Sports
Kenny Mayne, who joined ESPN in May 1994, was named a Los Angeles-based SportsCenter anchor in August 2013.
In his work as an anchor and reporter, Mayne has become well known for his offbeat style, dry humor, and unique sayings (“thanks for having electricity”) and home run calls (“I am amused by the simplicity of this game!”). Although he stands out in the studio – his most prominent roles have been on SportsCenter, ESPN2’s motorsports show, RPM 2Night and hosting both seasons of the sports trivia game show 2-Minute Drill – it truly shines in features, often humorous and currently his primary vehicle as a commentator at ESPN. In his “The Mayne Event” segments on Sunday NFL Countdown – ranging from the fourth grader who wore a Brett Favre jersey for 600 days to the “real reason” quarterbacks lick their fingers to making nachos with Martha Stewart for the Super Bowl XL pre-game show – his creativity and deadpan delivery distinguish his work.
From 2008 – 2011, he produced and starred in an original scripted series on ESPN.com titled Mayne Street. Mayne played himself in a fictionalized version of life at the center of sports television. In 2011, he shifted gears and debuted Kenny Mayne’s Wider World of Sports on ESPN.com. Inspired by the iconic Wide World of Sports on ABC in days gone by, it takes a look at unusual sports from exotic and distant locales around the world.
For many years until 2011, Mayne also hosted ESPN’s horse racing coverage, a life-long passion, for which he was honored in 2006 with the Old Hilltop Award for excellence in covering thoroughbred racing from the Maryland Horse Breeders Association.
Mayne joined ESPN as an ESPN2 SportSmash anchor, providing five-minute score and news reports every half-hour, and as a feature reporter for SportsNight. Beginning in September 1995, he served as the original host of ESPN2’s weekend auto racing news and highlights programs, Sunday morning’s RPM 2Day and RPM 2Night on Saturday and Sunday. He also occasionally anchored SportsCenter until assuming that role fulltime in August 1997.
Prior to joining ESPN, Mayne had served as a freelance reporter and field producer for the network from 1990-1994. “During that time,” Mayne says, “I only pursued one full-time television job. ESPN. I had the ESPN 800-number and called all the time with story ideas. I guess they finally decided it was less expensive to hire me than to keep paying for my phone calls.”
Television, however, wasn’t always his primary form of employment. He had worked at local stations from 1982-1990, but as recently as 1994, Mayne worked in sales for MCI. Before that his career even included a stint assembling garbage cans. “I had worked as a garbageman inSeattleduring college,” Mayne recalls, “and when I left local television in 1990, I called my old boss but the industry had passed me by. They had switched to one-person trucks, so I took a position assembling the garbage cans.”
Mayne began his television career at KLVX-TV (a PBS affiliate) in Las Vegas, Nev., as a reporter in 1982. He worked for KSTW-TV in the Tacoma/Seattle market from 1982-89, serving as a production assistant (1982-83), news writer (1983-86) and weekend sports anchor and weekday news reporter (1986-89). As an anchor, Mayne was known for his offbeat style which included his “Dog Days of Summer Score Dog” segment, in which he used his dog to help give baseball scores.
A native of Kent, Wa., Mayne was born September 1, 1959. He attended Wenatchee Valley Community College (Wenatchee, Wa.), where he was an honorable mention junior college All-American quarterback in 1978. He was graduated from Universityof Nevada-Las Vegasin 1982 with a bachelor of arts degree in broadcasting. While at UNLV, Mayne played football for two years and later signed as a free agent with the Seattle Seahawks (1982). In 2006, he competed on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars.

Author, Researcher and Consultant in Anomalous Trauma. Offering Hypnotherapy, Coaching and Telephone Consulting Services.
Eve Lorgen, MA
Eve Lorgen is a dedicated counseling professional, UFO/alien abduction researcher, Anusara yogi and writer. She began her pioneering work with alien abductees while earning her Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology in 1992. She also holds a BS in Biochemistry and worked in the Biotechnology industry for 7 years. Eve started a support group in 1994 in San Diego County, CA for experiencers of anomalous trauma and continues to consult with anomalous trauma clients worldwide today while living in Western North Carolina. She was a close associate of the late Barbara Bartholic and is dedicated in continuing and expanding the work of the late Dr. Karla Turner.
Anomalous Trauma is defined as traumatic events that are out of the normal range of human experience. These experiences may include alien abductions, near death experiences, shamanic initiations, military abductions (milabs) mind control, spiritual warfare, demonic and psychic attacks, cult involvement and narcissistic abuse. Early on in her career counseling alien abductees, she discovered a plethora of unusual experiences that often accompanied those who reported alien encounters and milabs. The most prominent aspect of Eve’s counseling and support is with those who are experiencing some form of alien or paranormal orchestrated love relationship issues, or what she calls “the love bite”.
The love bite is a misunderstood and highly taboo aspect of the alien abduction experience: alien engineering of human love relationships and alien manipulation of abductees’ lives. However, as more people have come forward to share their unusual “orchestrated love relationships”, Eve discovered that this is not exclusive to the “alien abductee subpopulation” and is much more widespread.
Eve authored “The Love Bite: Alien Interference of Human Love Relationships”
(E Logos & HHC Press, 2000) and is a contributing author to all three volumes of the Universal Seduction by Angelico Tapestra. She is currently writing a self-help book on love relationships related to the paranormal themes discussed, so that seekers may be able to recognize, deal with and heal from these engineered “trauma drama” love relationships, and be able to discern between a true soul mate and a counterfeit one– orchestrated from questionable “otherworldly” sources.
Eve Lorgen has written numerous articles internationally on the alien abduction phenomenon in magazines such as X-Times, Nexus, JAR, MUFON Journal, Enigmas, Unknown Magazine, independent E-zines, newsletters, blogs and web sites. Many of her articles have been printed in Spanish, Italian, French and Croatian. Eve is also an excellent poet. She is a frequent guest of talk radio shows, independent film documentaries, and a former radio show host for NSPN Night Search Paranormal Radio Network of out Memphis, TN. She has publicly lectured across the US for MUFON groups, annual conferences, independent paranormal & UFO discussion groups and Brian Hall’s Conspiracy Conference.
Eve is also participating in a new venture, called RISE Multiversity. Some of my favorite guests are participating in this new, educational process: George Kavassilas, Tom Montaulk, Laura Lee Mysticah, Sienna Lea and of course Eve Lorgen.
Composer/Songwriter & Concert Pianist
Julian Lampert's hallmark is Versatility; between the music of Gibbons, Bach, Beethoven, and Rachmaninoff, to his own compositions within latin, jazz, gospel and classical genres, Julian covers over 400 years of musical styles.
Born into a musical family in Moscow, he immigrated with his family to the U.S. as a young child. Julian studied piano, harmony and counterpoint with his mother, Dr. Elyena Miremonde, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory. At eight, he gave his first recital––an all-Tchaikovsky program. Four years later, he made his concerto debut under conductor Victor Rosenbaum and The Cambridge Concerto Players. This brought him to the attention of Richard Probst, at that time Director of Concerts & Artists at Steinway, and later Vice-President of Harold Shaw Concerts. Under Richard Probst’s auspices, Mr. Lampert would make many appearances in the United States, Europe and Russia. He has been coached by some of the world’s most distinguished artists, as Schura Cherkassky, Dorothy Taubman and Eliza Hansen who selected him for a Master-Course in Hamburg, Germany, in 1986 and ’87.
At 16, his recital at the St. Paul Trois-Chateaux Film Festival was broadcast by French Television. A year later, Mr. Lampert appeared on Radio France Internationale’s contemporary music series with Valery Afanassiev. In 1989, Mr. Lampert participated in the Marlboro Music Festival where he was coached by Rudolf Serkin and Richard Goode. He was the youngest artist at the Scotia Music Festival in 1991, directed that year by Pierre Boulez. At Amherst College, he worked with Pulitzer-Prize winning composer Lewis Spratlan and jazz conductor/author, Andrew Jaffe. Mr. Lampert was harpsichordist and pianist for Amherst Collegium Musicum and the Bach Festival directed by Blanche Moyse. He appeared at the Hall of the Kosciuszko Foundation in two festivals of Chopin directed by David Dubal.
After meeting with Fred Rogers—creator of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood—who attended Mr. Lampert’s debut in Pittsburgh in 1999, Julian was inspired to write music for young people. He wrote many pieces and songs for music & arts workshops presented at The Miremonde Arts Center, founded by Mr. Lampert’s mother, Elyena Miremonde (please see www.miremondearts.org). He has twice served as jury-member of the Nicholas Flagello Young Pianists Competition of New York and has coached young composers in the Songcatchers Program in New York.
Since 1999, Mr. Lampert has been engaged as composer by figure-skating legends Ludmila & Oleg Protopopov, two-time Olympic gold medalists. They danced to his music in several televised productions, including their historic return to Russia in 2005 for the first time since their defection. In 1996, he was honored by the Scriabin Society of Moscow by being selected to inaugurate a festival of Scriabin’s music for the 125’th anniversary of his birth.
In 2006, Mr. Lampert made his debut with the Westchester Chamber Orchestra under Barry Charles Hoffman, performing Beethoven’s Fourth Concerto. Since 2007, The First Lady of St. Martin, Josianne Fleming, has presented Julian in series of recitals presented by the Rotary Club of Guadeloupe.
As Artistic Director of The Miremonde Arts Concert Series, Mr. Lampert has presented a remarkably diverse range of music, from the Baroque and Classical to Jazz and Latin genres. At Miremonde Arts, he has collaborated with Stefan Hoskuldsson—Metropolitan Opera Principal Flutist, The Kopelman String Quartet, Grammy-winning duo Eddy Davis & Conal Fowkes, and R&B vocalist Clayton Bryant, among others.
This year will see the release of two albums: "In Between", featuring originals within jazz, latin and gospel music, and "Lampert in Concert", presenting music by Haydn, Beethoven, Prokofiev, and Scriabin.
