Abydos the temple of Seti 1 - The Gateway to the Underworld

For the Ancient Egyptians, Abydos was one of the holiest sites in the world. It was the center of the god Osiris and was known as the “Gateway to the underworld”. Osiris, lord of the cycles of creation, symbolizing the divine spark in man and the physical creation. This aspect of Osiris describes the process of birth, re-birth, renewal and return, a return to the divine. Abydos is still a place of pilgrimage for Spiritual travellers and is said to be the burial place of the head of Osiris. It is here at Abydos that Osiris is brought back to life after having being killed and cut into 14 pieces by his brother Set. It is here that Osiris becomes the judge of the dead and the lord of the underworld. It was at Abydos that the Djed pillar was raised for the first time. The festival of the raising of the Djed dates back to more than 5000 years. It is the Egyptian Book of the Dead or the Book of Coming Forth by Day that identifies the Djed pillar as the backbone of Osiris and the support and backbone of the Universe. The Djed pillar was the cosmic axis of light linking heaven and earth, the microscopic representation of which was the backbone of the human body through which the light of the kundalini energy rises. In the Edfu texts it is said that the Djed pillar “served its greatest purpose and revealed its greatest mysteries at the end of one world age and the beginning of another”, this is such a time! Dorothy Eady (Omm Sety) who believed herself to be a reincarnation of a temple priestess at Abydos, tells the story of her relationship with the illuminated King Sety. Beginning in the early 1900s and lasting until her death in 1981 Dorothy Eady and Sety carried on the romance begun in 1500 B.C. It is said that “Sety wore the transparent “robe of light” (light body) indicating that he was an initiate of the Egyptian Mystery Schools. He would appear to Dorothy at night, then, he would disappear all of a sudden, crossing our 3-D world into the parallel reality the ancient Egyptians called Amenti, the realm of Osiris”. The Temple of Sety , built around 1300 BC by Sety and his son Ramses II bears a cartouche in the Outer Hypostyle Hall that has become famous for including the "Abydos helicopter." The ancient engraving shows a helicopter and other futuristic devices.

Path of the Mystery School Initiate Sacred Winter Solstice Journey 12th to 22nd December 2010 11 Days

Join me on this life changing journey of awakening and remembering commencing on the 12th December 2010.

Following the path of the mystery school initiate through the chakras of the Nile, the Seven Seals of Egypt, we will discover the profound cosmic wisdom that is written in the stones.


"Follow ye ever the path of wisdom. Only by this can ye rise from below. Ever man's destiny leads him onward into the Curves of Infinity's ALL. Know ye, O man, that all space is ordered. Only by Order are ye One with the ALL. Order and balance are the Law of the Cosmos. Follow and ye shall be One with the ALL."

Egypt is an image of what is in the heavens and also of what is below, the microcosm and the macrocosm, as above, so below. Mirror images of the constellations, that the Masters built below, using their Temples and Pyramids as a reflection of the stars.

Our tour includes a Mystery School Initiate Workshop and also visits to the following :

Valleys of Queens
Valley of the Kings
Medinet Habu Temple - the mortuary temple of Ramses 111
Abydos
Osirion where the flower of life symbol can be seen
Mortuary Temple of Seti 1
Temple of Dendera
Temple of Karnack
Temple of Luxor
Pyramids and Sphinx

The greatest of all the Mystery Schools was in Egypt at Giza, it was here that they taught the mystery of the immortality of the soul. It is evident that the knowledge possessed during the times the Pyramids are said to have been built included a complete grasp of astronomy, solar systems, planetary bodies, distances, the procession of the equinoxes and the fixed star groupings, sacred geometry, advanced mathematics, physics, geography.

"Raised over the passage, I, a mighty pyramid, using the power that overcomes Earth force (gravity). Deep and yet deeper place I a force-house or chamber; from it carved I a circular passage reaching almost to the great summit. There in the apex, set I the crystal, sending the ray into the "Time-Space," drawing the force from out of the ether, concentrating upon the gateway to Amenti. Know ye that in the pyramid I builded are the Keys that shall show ye the Way into life. Aye, draw ye a line from the great image I builded, to the apex of the pyramid, built as a gateway. Draw ye another opposite in the same angle and direction. Dig ye and find that which I have hidden. There shall ye find the underground entrance to the secrets hidden before ye were men."
