Secrets of the Ancient Egyptian BOOK of the DEAD to Be Revealed for First Time in Exhibit
The Egyptian Book of the Dead would more correctly translate to the Egyptian Book of Life.
Read on to find out why this affects you.
The University of Chicago�s Oriental Institute is presenting two 30-foot long papyri copies
of the Egyptian Book of the Dead, each beautifully illustrated with images and text.
The Book of the Dead offers incredible insight as to how the ancient Egyptians dealt with
our mortality.
The Egyptian Book of the Dead was written only for a single person to help them traverse
a conscious experience of the after-life.
The Egyptian Book of the Dead contained magic spells as well as instructions for traversing
the afterlife, along with funerary rituals to help ease a passing soul through the world
beyond this world.
It differs only slightly from the Tibetan Book of the Dead, which offers similar wisdom.

Interestingly, the author of the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Padmasambhava, was not a traditional
Tibetan Buddhist.
He wrote many esoteric teachings from other cultures into his book � some of which may
have been influenced by ancient Egypt.
Also of note are the similarities in the wisdom contained in each book.
The Tibetan Book of the Dead describes six different Bardos or six states of consciousness
where enlightenment is possible.
There are three states of consciousness mentioned at death time, right at the time of dying,
an intermediate state, and the state of consciousness just before taking a rebirth.
Similarly, the Egyptians believed that the soul could be aided with certain rituals to
transfer consciousness between lifetimes.
The Egyptian concept of soul was divided into three spirit entities.
The Ka, the Ba and the Akh.
The soul leaving the body upon death as depicted in ancient Egyptian pictographs.
�The ka was essentially a person�s double.
It was the life force and at death it was separated from the body.The reason for extensive
and elaborate preparation for the body for the after life was to ensure the ka had a
home.
The living would sometimes provide bread, beer, oxen and fowl to feed the ka for the
afterlife.
They also believed the deceased body would have to resemble the past living body as much
as possible so the ka could recognize its body and then the ba would �return to it
each night after spending time in the sunshine.� Modern science still struggles to explain
the massive electrical impulses in our bodies at the time of death, and the unexplainable
rise in consciousness that seems to happen when we are close to death.
In fact, Jimo Borjigin, a neuroscientist at the University of Michigan, says that,
�Doctors assume that after clinical death, the brain is dead and inactive.
They use the term �unconscious� again and again.
But death is a process.
It�s not a black-or-white line.� Scientists also cannot fully explain out-of-body
experiences which are well-documented.
Our Final Journey into Permanent Unconsciousness May Actually Take Us Briefly Into Heightened
Consciousness
In a recent study, Borjigin realized that rats show an unexpected pattern of brain activity
immediately after cardiac arrest.
With neither breath nor heartbeats, these rodents were clinically dead but for at least
30 seconds.
Their brains showed several signals of strong conscious thought.
This suggests that our final journey into permanent unconsciousness may actually involve
a brief state of heightened consciousness.
Borjigin says that this phenomenal brain activity may also help explain near-death experiences.

scholars who gave titles to both the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and the Egyptian Book of
the Dead were horribly wrong in their translations.
A more correct translation for the Egyptian Book of the Dead might be The Book of Coming
Forth by Day or Spells Going Forth by the Day, or The Egyptian Book of Life.
The afterlife was not seen as an end to our conscious experience, but simply a continuation
of life on earth, after one had passed through various difficulties and judgement in the
Hall of Truth, a paradisiacal place to contemplate one�s experience in the previous form.
Moreover, The [Egyptian] Book of the Dead was never codified and no two copies of the
work are exactly the same.
They were created specifically for each individual who could afford to purchase one as a kind
of manual to help them after death.

Egyptologist Geralidine Pinch explains:
�The Egyptian Book of the Dead is a term coined in the nineteenth century CE for a
body of texts known to the Ancient Egyptians as the Spells for Going Forth by Day.
After the Book of the Dead was first translated by Egyptologists, it gained a place in the
popular imagination as the Bible of the Ancient Egyptians.
The comparison is very inappropriate.
The Book of the Dead was not the central holy book of Egyptian religion.
It was just one of a series of manuals composed to assist the spirits of the elite dead to
achieve and maintain a full afterlife.� So, for those with an eye for ancient Egyptian
cuneiform, the papyrus scrolls being presented at the Chicago exhibit are for one passing
soul � a map � you might say, to help them navigate a heightened consciousness which
allows them to understand why they are being reincarnated into their next life, and the
wisdom to take all that they�ve learned from this life, into their next experience.
