The Egyptian Mysteries (B)<br />

Plutarch in Isis and Osiris wrote:<br />

"When you hear of the fables of the Egyptians concerning their gods - their wanderings,<br />

cutting to pieces and other mishaps, you should not suppose that any of them happened or<br />

was done in the manner related."<br />

"Nations have established and do employ symbols, some obscure, some more intelligible,<br />

in order to lead the understanding into things divine. In the same way you must hear the<br />

stories about the gods, and receive them from such as interpret myths, in a reverent and<br />

philosophic spirit."<br />

Hippolytus in his Refutations asserted:<br />

"The source whence Plato derived his theory in the Timaeus is the wisdom of the<br />

Egyptians; for from<br />

this source ...Solon taught the entire system... to the Greeks." (6.17)<br />

The Mysteries of Isis dealt with the killing out of the lower passions of the neophyte and<br />

his subsequent entry into the Light of spiritual illumination. He had direct out-of-thebody<br />

experiences (called "astral travel") and therefore knew that there was no death for<br />

the Soul.<br />

The Egyptian Genesis<br />

The creative forces of emanation come forth from the great abyss of Nu. Kneph or<br />

Khnum is the potter who breathes life into the waters of space (Pisces). He fashions the<br />

limb of Osiris on the potter's wheel from the Cosmic Egg.<br />

(a) Capricorn - Nu, abyss.<br />
