The Sacred Lost Knowledge of Ancient Egypt: Unveiling the Mystery of Metaphysics as told in the Pyramid Texts

The Egyptians were considered participants in the drama of sacred life as members of the natural cosmic order. In the Metaphysical and Funerary Treatises, the interaction between the Neteru and human beings is described without distinction of such conditions, emphasizing only the purity of the person's life or intentions.

Since it was uncovered in the late nineteenth century, the Dynasty 12 papyrus A Dispute Between a Man and His Ba has intrigued translators. While the work raises issues about the social conditions of the time it was written, it is, without doubt, a reflection of Egyptian concepts about the spiritual aspects of One's earthly life, just like the Ba, the Ka, and the transformation of the soul. In ancient Egypt, “sacred anatomy” has also been used to illustrate spiritual concepts and moral values, elements of great importance for the development of temple students.
