Rare Egyptian Texts Unveiled
Date: Friday, September 09th, 2005 (CST ) Topic: Civilisations Past & Present
In this two part article we examine two unique Egyptian papyri. The first is an ancient Egyptian text that has never been released into the public domain before, called the Darkest of Nights.
The original papyrus is currently housed in the library at Alexandria and has been designated as being subject to restricted access by the Egyptian authorities and until today has never been freely circulated. ThothWeb’s Egyptologists have been granted exclusive access to this document, which they have duly translated.
The Darkest of Nights is without doubt one of the most beautiful texts ever to emerge from ancient Egypt. It is both a spiritual and magickal text that details the love affair of Time and Eternity and concludes with an incantation – an Egyptian spell to unite the earthbound soul with its Ren, its true cosmic essence.
The text tells of the separation of the earthly and cosmic identity and
instructs the reader as to how the two can be reunited. It also
suggests that the spiritual leaders of 3,000 years ago themselves
walked in ignorance of the truth, but that the truth is within our
reach if we allow ourselves to let go of the shadows of illusion that
use fear to anchor us to the physical world.
The text concludes with a spell intended to reconnect the individual
with his or her true name or Ren and in so doing, connect the cosmic and
the physical.
In Egyptian mythology it was by learning the ailing Ra's true cosmic
Name that the goddess Isis was able to gain all his powers thus making
her the most powerful magician in the universe and giving her the power
of creation itself, enabling her to bring her beloved Osiris back from
the dead.
The translated text for The Darkest of Nights can be found here in Seshat’s Library. You’ll also find a range of
other exclusive translations of Egyptian texts in the Library.
