A radical reinterpretation of the Pyramid Texts as shamanic mystical wisdom rather than funerary ritualsReveals the mystical nature of Egyptian civilization denied by orthodox EgyptologistsExamines the similarity between the pharaoh's afterlife voyage and shamanic journeyingShows shamanism to be the foundation of the Egyptian mystical traditionTo the Greek philosophers and other peoples of the ancient world, Egypt was regarded as the home of a profound mystical wisdom. While there are many today who still share that view, the consensus of most Egyptologists is that no evidence exists that Egypt possessed any mystical tradition whatsoever.
