Religion

First published in 1893, this book contains a detailed discussion of the funerary rituals and objects which were used in Egyptian religion to allow the deceased to live again in the Duat (the afterlife). Budge provides detailed descriptions of common religious texts, religious rites and the major deities involved in these. He also includes interpretations for other artefacts which commonly accompanied a burial, including shabiti statues and amulets. His comprehensive study represents the state of Egyptian funerary archaeology before major archaeological finds of the twentieth century challenged its interpretations.

TGS Publishing reprints this facsimile edition in two volumes, which includes the 220+ page digest-index, added years later to Albert Pike's manuscript. TGS makes no apology for the manuscript pages having stray dots, occasional lines, or varying quality. These were scanned pages from a very old book printed on India paper (tissue thin). Great care was taken not to destroy or damage the original in bringing this book back in print.

Excellent source for history and origins of Christian art and symbols.

IT is important for the Christian world to understand where their bias against other people and religions originated. Much like Marsden's interpretation of the Protocols of Zion led to a great Christian uproar against Jews, so thus this author attempts to bias Christians against Moslems. Large print 17 point font.

The main purpose of our existence on earth-aside from the sacred and paramount duty of securing our salvation-is undoubtedly to make ourselves masters of the tangible world around us, as it stands revealed to our senses, and as it was expressly made subject to our will by the Creator.

It is not that the history of Spiritual Manifestations in this century and country has not again and again been written, nor that a library of the splendid literature of Spiritualism-narrative, philosophical, and religious-does not already exist, that I have deemed it a duty to give this history to the world.
