Other Examples of the Staircase to Heaven and the 3 Islands of the Blessed
The wavy environment is water, but also symbolizes the energy of light waves.
The Egyptians believed that Horus (and perhaps also Baba) helped Osiris ascend a ladder
or staircase after his resurrection by means of two fingers. The two fingers together
(index and middle) became a sacred amulet.
During his resurrection phase Osiris identifies with Ra as his True Higher Self. On the
Senet Oracle Board the House of Death is the third square from the right on the bottom
row. The House of Osiris is the second square from the right on the middle row. The
House of Ra is the first square in the right corner on the top row. Thus we see on the
Senet Oracle Board a miniature staircase on which Osiris ascends from death to identify
with his immortal Higher Self in the form of the Sun God Ra. The ascent becomes
equivalent to climbing the Tower of Tem that stands on a foundation base of Truth
(Ma'at) that is often represented as a pyramid casing block and is also pronounced Ma'at.
An alternate reading of the "ab" glyph a is "mer" with the meaning of pyramid.

Ma'at Pyramid Casing Stone = Truth, Justice
Some scholars interpret the above glyph as a chisel. Sometimes the glyph is written very
similar to the glyph for wedge, an edge, or an embankment. The interesting property of
this casing block is that it integrates the jagged step pyramid and smooth continuous
pyramid viewpoints. Perhaps this merging of discrete digital and continuous analog is
Scientific Truth in the eyes of ancient Egyptians.
