  7. Esoteric shades

    He seems to have used Wallis Budge translations of names which are now non-standard. For instance Ra hoor Khuit would be Re - Horakhty etc. But I guess as you say he was reinterpretiing it into his own system (as with Hadit which is not an Egyptian term) - but all good with that. My old teacher (who actually met Crowley once) said he knew what he was doing (with a caveat that he indulged himself a little playing games with people). I had a look at the Stele of Revealing and its a nice find from the Late period and the owner of the stele was a Sem priest - so a magician basically. So nice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stele_of_Ankh-ef-en-Khonsu#/media/File:Stelae_of_Ankh-af-na-khonsu.jpg

    We could discuss this in depth if you wish but perhaps in another thread? The Egyptians were very keen in alliteration and puns. In this they saw both a kind of poetic expression but also resonances in meaning. So in the phrase the repeat of the ‘kheper’ root and sound indicates a kind of continuity between the three ‘levels’. Khepera is the sun as a scarab beetle. The morning sun. The morning recapitulates the creation of the universe itself. Kheper means ‘to be, become, evolve’ and kheperw refers to the things created ( like the ten thousand things of Daoism). What is implied is that the creator, the act of creation and the resulting creations all reflect each other as they all partake in a continuum of energy/awareness.

    Their translation is ok metaphysically speaking. I don’t know about books on Egyptian magic because I am self taught from source texts but I’ll have a think about it. What particularly are you interested in?

  23. Light and dark are a duality. The goal is that which is either the union of both or what is beyond light and dark. By dark I don't mean the obscuration of light by matter for instance but perhaps that which is self transparent like space for instance.

    That's the bear truth.
