The Light of Ancient Egypt (30 min)




Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity show

Summary: <p>The wisdom of Ancient Egypt found a home in the libraries of Alexandria during the early centuries of the first millennium. A collection of works attributed to the Egyptian god Thoth (aka Hermes) were among the many hundreds of thousands of scrolls in that great city of old. And in this text the secrets of happiness and peace and the very nature of reality were revealed. Echoing the insights of Zarathustra, Lao Tzu, Buddha and many other ancient masters, this extraordinary Egyptian text remains one of the great works of mystical literature, on a par with the Gospels, the Diamond Sutra, the Bhagavad Gita and the Tao Te Ching. In this 30 minute meditation, some of the insights from the Egypt of old are applied to help you find peace and meaning in your own life.</p><br><p>Background reading:</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Way-Hermes-Translations-Definitions-Trismegistus/dp/0892811862" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Way of Hermes</a></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Hermetica-Lost-Wisdom-Pharaohs/dp/158542692X" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Hermetica: The Lost Wisdom of the Pharaohs</a></p><br><hr><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> See <a style="color: grey;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://acast.com/privacy">acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
