Why the Amduat is significant -- every evening the sun becomes old
and weak and finally sets behind the Western horizon. Yet, it rises
again in the morning, rejuvenated. How is that possible? How could
the sun for the Ancient Egyptians the Sun God become young and
revitalised during the night, during his night journey? What
happens during this time? The Amduat is a description of the
journey of the Sun God through the night world, that is also the
world of the deceased. The knowledge contained in the Amduat is
meant for the dead Pharaoh. But the text also recommends this
knowledge for living beings. Thus, the journey of the Sun God can
also be seen as a symbolic representation of an inner psychic
process of transformation and renewal.
