Just before the new millennium (in the year 2000) some material was published on the Internet sites devoted to the Wands of Horus under the general title "Beware of Imitations".

    The essence of the warning was contained in a few questions addressed to Sergei and Svetlana Gorbunov and the companies under their control that produce imitations of the Wands of Horus, and directly to Mr Vladimir Kovtun who is actively engaged in profanation of the subject and disseminating incorrect information.

    Consciously overstepping the bounds of ethics, Vladimir Kovtun deliberately misleads the public regarding his degree of competency in matters of ancient knowledge, preferring the course of slander, casting a shadow not only on his former business partners, but also on the research carried out within the Wands of Horus project, and particularly on Valery Uvarov, the author of the book "The Wands of Horus", whom he accuses of plagiarism.

    In the awareness that Mr Kovtun's activities one way or another cause suffering to those who are unable to test the quality of his arguments, we decided to publish the material mentioned and to ask Mr Kovtun some questions, the answers to which would eliminate all doubt about who was in the right, revealing the true state of affairs. In drawing your attention to this issue and providing you with the opportunity to get to the heart of the question yourself, we hope to put an end to the matter and not to allow ourselves to be distracted any longer by the invective of Mr Kovtun and his fellow-travellers past and present.

    Well over three years have since passed, and no answers to the questions under the heading "Beware of Imitations" have been forthcoming, which is eloquent testimony to Mr Kovtun's acquaintance with ancient knowledge on the one hand, and on the other to his complete indifference to the truth so long awaited from him by those who one way or another believed in him.

    Here are those questions:

    Why in principle are the Cylinders of the Pharaohs that Kovtun produces filled with coal and ferrite (or magnetic ore according to Kovtun's patent)? In Ancient Egypt nothing was done by mere chance. Everything had profound meaning, was based on the principles upon which the universe was founded.

    If Vladimir Kovtun really were the modern-day developer of the things that the Ancient Egyptian priests and pharaohs hold in their hands, he would have long since answered this question without any trouble. The more so, since this is a very interesting section. But in all these years the answer has been a silence that forcefully suggests that Mr Kovtun does not possess this knowledge and was not the developer of the cylinders.

    You will find the answer to this question in Valery Uvarov's book, The Wands of Horus, in the section entitled:The Mechanism of the Wands of Horus with coal and ferromagnetic filling.

    The material in the book cogently demonstrates that the fillings used for this variant of the cylinders were coal and "bja" - meteoritic or natural iron, but certainly not magnetic ore, still less the ferrite used in Mr Kovtun's cylinders.

    2. How can a person so well versed in Ancient Egyptian science as Mr Kovtun purports to be have permitted that, right up to the year 2000, the "Cylinders of the Pharaohs" that he developed were manufactured without regard to the Golden Section proportions, which makes it completely impossible for such cylinders to attune themselves to the human organism?

    After a conversation with Valery Uvarov that took place in early 2000, Mr Kovtun hastened to declare that now the Cylinders of the Pharaohs embody the Golden Section ratio, having (not surprisingly) adopted the proportions given in Valery Uvarov's writings.

    The second question was therefore:

    Why did Mr Kovtun, who has declared himself the true, sole developer of the cylinders of the pharaohs, select the ratio 151.4:28 millimetres or 5.407:1? That ratio is not to be found in the table of numbers in the Golden Section sequence. Hence the query - where are the Golden Proportions here, and if they are absent, what exactly is the idea behind the chosen ratio?

    But to this justified enquiry, too, in all the intervening period no answer has been forthcoming. The inevitable verdict is that in this instance as well Mr Kovtun was lying. He does not possess the knowledge and is not the developer of the cylinders.

    The answer to this question is contained in Appendix 19 of Valery Uvarov's book The Wands of Horus, entitled "The Planet's Own Frequency", published as a discovery.

    Instead of giving a sensible answer to questions that relate directly to the quality of his arguments and products, in his book The Cylinders of the Pharaoh and on the Internet site of the same name, Mr Kovtun resorted to his customary tactic of provocation, calling Valery Uvarov Apopis in the sense of a representative of the dark forces.

    What's to be said about that? Well - a very big "thank you" for such an exalted status from the viewpoint of Ancient Egyptian doctrine. Apopis is a symbol of the supra-universal cosmic law! Read the material headed"The Apopis Factor" in the announcement of Valery Uvarov's book The Wands of Horus and in the book itself, where exhaustive information is provided on this topic. If Mr Kovtun had the least grasp of the ancient knowledge, he would obviously not have called Valery Uvarov Apopis.

    After this material was published in Russian in the Internet, Valery Uvarov received an e-mail from Mr Kovtun. Evidently this is his belated answer to all the questions we posed.

    Greetings Uvarov, you swindler! It is obvious from your site that you are not only a swindler and a plagiarist, but also a gre-e-e-at big idiot! That's been clear to everyone for a long time.
