QUESTION: There appears to be a heated debate about hidden chambers under the pyramids. You might be an historical scholar. Might this be the legendary Halls of Amenti?

I don’t imagine that the legendary Halls of Amenti are bodily. I imagine that they had been symbolic of our journey via life. The Halls of Amenti are what we enter and move via, starting with ignorance till we attain the “Omega Point” (later known as “Noosphere”), which was first coined by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. That is the journey via life between ignorance and our attainment of this Data/Omega Level, and we possess the data required to finish the journey from our bodily being to the Soul.
Reincarnation occurs from inside the Halls of Amenti after we are despatched again into a brand new bodily physique till we study and get it proper. That is just like Asian Buddhism. The one passage via the Halls of Amenti necessitates combining data, knowledge, and an entire lack of Karma – then we want not return. I imagine that was what Buddha prayed for – to not need to return. That might imply that is HELL, and if we’re good, we get to go away and enter HAVEN—attention-grabbing view of life and non secular tackle this expertise. It appears to be extra akin to Asian, and my concept is that Egyptian writing is photos, which is how Asian languages developed. Western languages got here from the alphabet launched by the Phoenicians. I imagine this stems from the divide between Japanese and Western views.
Thoth was the Egyptian deity of the Moon, knowledge, data, writing, hieroglyphs, science, magic, artwork, and judgment. Sadly, early Christian writers exaggerated most religions as a result of anybody who was not a Christian needed to be a pagan. One of many main causes that Christianity unfold was that it had a well-known storyline. Zeus despatched his son, Hercules, to assist mankind, so it was not a totally unusual concept. In Egypt, the legend of Osiris, as instructed by the Greek creator Plutarch, was that Osiris was slain or drowned by Seth, who tore the corpse into 14 items and flung them over Egypt. Finally, Isis and her sister Nephthys discovered and buried all of the items, besides the phallus/penis, thereby giving new life to Osiris, who thenceforth remained within the underworld as ruler and decide. His son Horus efficiently fought in opposition to Seth, avenging Osiris and turning into the brand new king of Egypt. The thought of resurrection was why the Egyptians mummified their our bodies. So, lots of the concepts of Christianity weren’t overseas to many cultures.
All the varied beings that the Christians referred to as “gods” had been extra like superheroes. They weren’t believed to have been gods of creation. Every was assigned some responsibility, like Neptune/Poseidon dominated the ocean, however didn’t create it. Somebody would go to the temple of Neptune/Poseidon and produce an providing earlier than they set sail, begging for a protected journey, and please don’t mess with me. This stood in distinction to Christianity, however over time, Christians additionally created saints to wish to for particular issues, not not like the ancients. Saints usually are not thought-about to be gods.
