The Egyptian Book of the Dead – The Book of Coming Forth by Day


The Egyptian Book of the Dead The Book of Coming Forth by Day




I Know myself, I know myself, I am One With God!

From the Pert Em Heru
The Ru Pert em Heru or Ancient Egyptian Book of The Dead, or Book of Coming Forth By Day as it is more popularly known, has fascinated the world since the successful translation of Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic scripture over 150 years ago. The astonishing writings in it reveal that the Ancient Egyptians believed in life after death and in an ultimate destiny to discover the Divine. The elegance and aesthetic beauty of the hieroglyphic text itself has inspired many see it as an art form in and of itself.

But is there more to it than that? Did the Ancient Egyptian wisdom contain more than just aphorisms and hopes of eternal life beyond death?

In this volume Dr. Muata Ashby, the author of over 25 books on Ancient Egyptian Yoga Philosophy has produced a new translation of the original texts which uncovers a mystical teaching underlying the sayings and rituals instituted by the Ancient Egyptian Sages and Saints.

Once the philosophy of Ancient Egypt is understood as a mystical tradition instead of as a religion or primitive mythology, it reveals its secrets which if practiced today will lead anyone to discover the glory of spiritual self-discovery. The Pert em Heru is in every way comparable to the Indian Upanishads or the Tibetan Book of the Dead.

5 Stars An Ancient African System of Enlightment
Ashby does an excellent job of selecting and highlighting pasages and unraveling the science of the soul.

5 Stars Simple and Undeniably Intense
htp. Sehu Maa has done an extraordinary work with Prt m Hru. In the beginning parts of this work, he explains the terms used, concepts, history of KMT and Prt m hru, language use, etc. He supports the book with Mdu Ntr(words of the Ntru, divine speech), pictures of tomb inscriptions, and best of all, Sehu Maa explains each chapter from its intended implications. Thusfar, I have learned that we didn't call the Prt m Hru, "the book of the dead", this is a guide for the spiritual journey of the living. ankh udja snb Sehu Maa

Its very intriguing, i read the information and made obsewrvations and the book is very accurate with people who i know that would mean that i can do the same with those who i dont know and i dont have to waste my time getting to know those that aren't worth it. the book is beyond interesting its factual.

5 Stars THANK GOD FOR ANOTHER!I
I HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF READING THE TRANSLATION BY THE BIGOT BLUDGE. WHAT A LOT OF NONSENSE. HIS BOOK WAS BASED OF THE MISINTERPETATION OF AN AFRICAN RELIGION THROUGH THE EYES OF A EUROPEAN.

THANK GOODNESS OF MUATA ASHBY AND HIS UNBIASED INSIGHT AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE BOOK OF THE DEADS.

4 Stars Another Great book
