Invocations from the Egyptian Book of the Dead: Adoration to Ausar (Osiris)

Gavin Shri Amneon’s Invocations from the Egyptian Book of the Dead offers a mesmerizing journey into the spiritual heart of ancient Egypt. This composition brings to life an ancient devotional song, more than 4,000 years old, sung in the original language of the Pharaohs. The piece serves as an adoration to Ausar (Osiris), the God of the Underworld, renewal, and eternal life, and provides a profound connection to the mysticism and spiritual practices of ancient Egyptian civilization.

Who is Ausar (Osiris)?

In ancient Egyptian mythology, Ausar, known as Osiris in the Greco-Roman world, is one of the most revered deities. His myth symbolizes death, rebirth, and the eternal cycle of life:

  1. God of the Underworld: Ausar governs the realm of the dead and oversees the judgment of souls in the afterlife. He is a guide who ensures balance and justice (Ma’at) in the cosmic and spiritual realms.
  2. Symbol of Resurrection: The story of Ausar’s death and resurrection, aided by his wife Aset (Isis), epitomizes the themes of transformation and eternal life. He represents the regenerative powers of nature and the renewal of the soul.
  3. Initiator of Mystical Knowledge: Ausar is often associated with the mysteries of initiation, guiding priests and Pharaohs through spiritual rituals that align them with cosmic order.

The Role of the Egyptian Book of the Dead

The Egyptian Book of the Dead, also called the Book of Coming Forth by Day, is a collection of hymns, prayers, and spells intended to guide the soul through the afterlife. It served dual purposes:

  1. Afterlife Guidance: The text was recited over mummified bodies to provide the deceased with knowledge and protection as they navigated the Duat (underworld).
  2. Living Wisdom: Beyond its role in death, the Book of the Dead offered teachings for the living, acting as a guide to overcoming life’s challenges and aligning with divine principles.

Adoration to Ausar: An Ancient Practice

The invocation to Ausar, as performed by Gavin Shri Amneon, revives the sacred songs once sung in the chambers of Egypt’s great pyramids. These hymns were integral to the initiation rituals of priests and Pharaohs, creating a sacred space for divine connection and spiritual transformation.

  1. Sacred Initiations: These songs were part of the esoteric rites performed within the pyramids, where initiates underwent symbolic journeys of death and rebirth under Ausar’s guidance.
  2. Meditative Power of Sound: The chanting in the ancient Egyptian language creates a vibrational resonance, invoking the divine presence of Ausar and aligning the listener with the spiritual truths of renewal and transcendence.

Relevance of Ausar and the Invocations Today

The themes of Ausar’s myth and the invocations from the Egyptian Book of the Dead resonate deeply in the modern quest for spiritual awakening:

  1. Death and Rebirth: Ausar’s story symbolizes the cycles of personal transformation—letting go of old patterns to embrace renewal and growth.
  2. Balance and Justice: As the arbiter of the afterlife, Ausar’s association with Ma’at reminds us of the importance of living a life of balance, integrity, and harmony.
  3. Mystical Journey: Listening to the invocations offers an opportunity to engage in a meditative journey, fostering a connection to ancient wisdom and the mysteries of the soul.
