Egypt Magic [1479]
The King of Egypt and the “Ka” monarchy are the mystery of the infinite cycles of creation.
Each of the kings of Egypt is part of the divine secret behind the repetition of the cycles of creation and the reincarnation of humans.
The ka kingship is the key to understanding the mystery of the infinite cycles of creation, so we must pause at this concept to understand it through ancient Egyptian texts.
The ancient Egyptians believed that man is not only a physical body, but there are many metaphysical elements and spiritual bodies that participate together in the formation of the human entity that combines the two extremes (annihilation and immortality), and among these metaphysical elements and spiritual bodies, the “ka.”
The “ka” comes into existence when the physical body is created, and the hieroglyph for the word “ka” is two arms raised to the sky.
The “ka” is born at the same moment when the physical body is born, meaning that the “ka” is the life energy that inhabits everything in the universe and gives it the ability to live and move.
Everything in the universe has a “ka” (animals, plants, celestial bodies, and divine entities also have “ka” (plural ka)).
The hieroglyph for the word “Ka” expresses the act of embracing, and it is a verb that denotes the existence of emotion of love, compassion and mercy that accompanies the transmission of the “ka” energy from the divine entity that surrounds everything in the universe and gives it life energy.
The “ka” is what nourishes the physical body and is responsible for its maturity. Therefore, the “ka” in Egyptian religious philosophy has been specifically associated with food, where the plural form of the word “ka” – which is Kao – is used to denote foods.
In the contents of the pyramids (text No. 789) came these phrases that addressed the king of Egypt, saying: “When you purify your body, your mug purifies itself … that your mummy sits with you and eats bread with you always and forever.”
So the “ka” is the cosmic force responsible for food, and it is the body that preserves the physical body during a person’s life on earth. The physical body lives as long as the “ka” is attached to it, and as soon as the “k” is separated from it, death occurs. The physical body loses its vitality and begins to decompose To its primary elements.
The physical body dies, but the ka does not die but rather moves to the dowat (the nether world) where it lives there and receives bread, beer, and other foods that are placed in the tombs and offered as sacrifices for the dead.
When studying the concept of “ka” in Egyptian religious philosophy, we find that the connotations of the word “ka” are not limited to the vital energy that nourishes the physical body.
The same word is also used to mean bull. It is also written with the same hieroglyphic symbol, which is the arms raised, which indicates the act of embracing …. And the bull in ancient Egypt is a symbol of the cosmic force that re-implants the seed of life in the womb of the cosmic mother.
The ancient Egyptians and other inhabitants of ancient civilizations excelled in using alliteration to express the relationship between cosmic and spiritual concepts and things belonging to the material world.
One of the clearest examples of this is the use of the word “ka” to denote the bull, which is the symbol of virility, and also to denote the royal “ka”, meaning the vital body of the king (or the consort).
The king is described as a “strong bull,” a description frequently mentioned in the Hourly title of the kings of Egypt, especially in the modern state. Therefore, the Hourly title is sometimes called the “Ka title”, and this title appears most often written above the “Ka” sign, which is In the form of arms raised.
The word “ka-mut-f” (the bull of its mother) is written in hieroglyphs using three symbols: a symbol in the form of a bull, a symbol in the form of the sign of “ka” (arms raised) and a symbol in the form of a female eagle which gives the phonetic value of the syllable “death”.
Both the bull and the ka enter into the formation of the name Ka Mutif (his mother’s bull), which means that his role is limited to planting a seed of new life at the end of the cosmic cycles in food.
This relationship is particularly evident in the harvest festival, as recorded by the Egyptian artist on the walls of the Temple of Habu, where the rituals linked the food cycle that ends with the harvest of the sowing and the transmission of the Egyptian royal dynasty from one generation to another … In the harvest festival, the souls of the ancestors are evoked through their statues and images.
One of the most important duties of the king in ancient Egypt is to ensure the fertility of the land so that the people can find enough sustenance … To achieve this, the king had to perform certain religious rituals on the harvest festival, where the spirits of the ancestors would share with him (meaning that the whole royal line was an important element in the fertility rituals. And harvest feasts).
The concept of “ka” includes both the sustenance and the spirits of the ancestors who left to the other world, but they did not separate from our world because the energy of life and fertility is transferred from the other world to us through them. The king is considered a living embodiment of the spirits of all ancestors and ancestors in the other world and is considered the link between our world and our Spirit realm.
The ancestors are in a permanent presence in our world through the king. They live inside him, support him, and participate with him in ruling Egypt.
