Rebirth in Egypt: Nephilim, Ramses (video)

Viper TV - FILMS, 1/7/20; Pat Macpherson, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly Wiki edit


The Ancient Egyptians speak of Nephilim meeting Ramses. Pharaoh Sa-Nakht may have been a giant (Nephilim), new study suggests. Unfolding discoveries reported in America and other parts of the world have revealed a lost legacy of a race (or races) of giants who are now slowly starting to be included in the historical and archaeological record.

Rebirth in Ancient Egypt: Book of the Dead
Section of the Egyptian Book of the Dead (Book of Coming Forth by Day or Book of Emerging Forth into the Light) written on papyrus, showing the Weighing of the Heart in the Duat (Underworld), where Anubis is seen on the far right. The scales are shown with the feather balance, and Ammit awaits hearts that she must devour. The presence of Osiris at the gateway to the paradise of Aaru dates the papyrus to a late tradition of the myth (wiki).

Duat ("do-aht," Tuat, Tuaut, or Akert, Amenthes, Amenti, or Neter-khertet) is the Realm of the Dead in ancient Egyptian mythology. It has been represented in hieroglyphs as a star-in-circle: 𓇽.

The Egyptian god Osiris was believed to be the lord of the underworld [like the Buddhist afterlife "god" Yama]. He was the first mummy, as depicted in the Osiris myth, and he personified rebirth and life after death.

The underworld was also the residence of various other gods along with Osiris. The Duat was the region through which the sun god Ra traveled from west to east each night, and it was where he battled Apophis (Apep), who embodied the primordial chaos the sun had to defeat in order to rise each morning and restore order to the earth.

It was also the place where people's "souls" [rebirth continuum, gandhabba, continuation of the impersonal process of consciousness and the reappearance of the other ancillary aggregates clung to as a "self"] went after death for judgement, though that was not the full extent of the afterlife (Faulkner, p. 143).

Burial chambers formed touching-points between the mundane world and the Duat, and the ꜣḫ ("akh") "the effectiveness of the dead," could use tombs to travel back and forth from the Duat (Pinch, pp. 33-35).

Why do we feel it "natural" to follow tall people? Might remnant memories of their offspring, hybrids, were children of severe rulers that demanded to be obeyed (ancient-origins.net).

Each night through the Duat the sun god Ra travelled, signifying revivification [rebirth, re-becoming, reappearance] as the main goal of the dead. Ra travelled under the world upon his Atet barge from west to east. He was transformed from its aged Atum form into Khepri, the new dawning sun.

The dead king, worshipped as a god, was also central to the mythology surrounding the concept of Duat, often depicted as being one with Ra (Arthur Edward Pearse Brome Weigal, A Guide to the Antiquities of Upper Egypt from Abydos to the Sudan Frontier, Taylor & Francis, p. 199). More
