Mystical Philosophy of Universal Consciousness<br />

The figure above (left) depicts another conceptualization of the Netherworld, which is at the<br />

same time the body of Nut in a forward bend yoga exercise posture. The innermost goddess<br />

symbolizes the lower heaven where the moon traverses, the physical realm. The middle one<br />

symbolizes the course of the sun in its Astral journey. This shows a differentiation between the<br />

physical heavens and the Astral plane, as well as time and physical space and Astral time and<br />

space, i.e., the concept of different dimensions and levels of consciousness. The outermost<br />

symbolizes the causal plane.<br />

Plate: Below- The Egyptian Gods and Goddesses act out the Creation through their<br />

movements: Forward bend -Nut, Spinal twist -Geb, Journey of Ra – Ra in his boat, and the<br />

squatting and standing motions of Nun and Shu.<br />
