Akhenaten Quotes

أدب الناس بالحب كما علمتك ، و من لم يؤدبه الحب يؤدبه المزيد من الحب

قوة الروح قد تمد الجسم الضعيف بقوة تفوق إمكاناته

سوف تسمع أقوالا متضاربة ، و سيدلي كل رجل بما يؤكد أنه الحق بينما ينطق عن هواه. لقد علمتني الحياة بألا أثق بأحد و لا أصدق أحدا

May the saddest day of your future be no worse than the happiest day of your past.

أن الجريمة التي تفلت من العقاب تكرس الإثم بين الناس وتزعزع الثقة في العدالة الإلهية وتمهد لارتكاب المزيد من الجرائم

الخير لا ينهزم، و الشر لا ينتصر، و لكننا لا نشهد من الزمان إلا اللحظة العابرة، و العجز و الموت يحولان بيننا و بين رؤية الحقيقة

عندما يأمن الموظف من العقاب سيقع في الفساد ويسوم الفقراء سوء العذاب.

And tell them all about the books you've read. Better still, buy some more books and read them. That's an order. You can never read too many books.

مصر مثوي التقاليد الخالدة ,المرأة هي الوعاء المقدس للتقاليد

الوطن لا يحتمل المزيد من الخراب

مصر ضائعة بين أوغاد و أن تبعة خرابها تقع على الجميع ما بين موالين للملك و المعارضين له

مولاى لما لا تلجأ إلى القوة دفاعا عن الحب و السلام ؟ فقال لى باسما : لا يتردد المجرمون عن انتحال الأعذار لإشباع الرغبة الآثمة فى البطش و سفك الدماء

Life…is a wonder. It is a sky laden with clouds of contradictions.

Some slogans of modern political revolutionaries—“ Make America Great Again”—echo the way that Akhenaten and other pharaohs manipulated nostalgia in order to justify change.

ما أعجب الحياة .. إنا سماء تمطر تجارب متناقضة

A second or two later, the reptile had been quite absorbed by a handsome, arrogant-looking Englishman smelling strongly of snobbery and snake.

Akhenaten’s kingship provides an unintended caricature of all modern leaders who indulge in the trappings of charismatic display.

ان احدا لا يشغل باله الا بمصلحته الذاتية،وان مصر ضائعة بين اوغاد،وان تبعة خرابها تقع على الجميع ما بين موالين للملك والمعارضين له لا على اخناتون وحده ،بل لعله انقى المذنبين ضميرا واصفاهم نية،لقد لعب به الدهاة،ورسموا له خطة ماكرة ليحققوا فى رحابه جشعهم،ثم ليرثوا ملكه عقب السقوط الحتمى،ولكنه صدق كذبتهم وآمن بها،وتفجرت من ايمانه قوة لم يعمل احد حسابهافاجتاحتهم فترة من الوقت وغزت القلوب بسحر عجيب ،حتى ارتطمت بصخرة الواقع الحادة القاسية،فانجلت عن مأساة وخراب ودموع،ثم لاذ الانتهازيون والجشعون بقارب النجاةفى اخر لحظة ، تاركين ضحيتهم الاعجوبة يغرق وحده ، ومزق الجميع اقنعتهم واختلفت مصائرهم و لكن لم ينل احدهم جزاءه الحق الا المارق المسكين ،اما مصر فقد تحملت اخطاء الجميع وتعددت فى جسدها الجراح

Those who gave thee a body furnished it with weakness, but he who gave you a soul armed you with resolution. Use it, and be wise.

special statue of the deceased. This statue will house the Ka, but my job, and that of those under me, is to prepare the physical body to house the Ba, the soul of PenMa'at.

This which you see before you is merely the Khat, 'that which decays', the physical body that contained the Khaibit or shadow body which has now dissolved, and the Ka, or 'double'.

From the Religious Revolution of Akhenaten in Ancient Egypt, To the demonisation of Jezebel in the Bible, and the others who followed, We are the light, shining truth upon all the deceit, we come, and we go, and we come back again.

Tea has nothing to do with being hungry," said Nimrod. "For Englishmen, it is like a canonical hour. And almost as much of an important ritual as the tea ceremony in Japan. Except for one thing. With tea, in Japan, recognition is given that every human encounter is a singular occasion which can, and will, never recur again exactly. Thus every aspect of tea must be savored for what it gives the participants. But in England, the significance occurs in the fact that teas is always the same, and will always recur again and again, exactly . For how is the endurance of a great civilization to be measured?

When I'd headed out here on my wedding day, I hadn't realized I'd bought a ticket to my own history, a different one from studying Akh-en-aten and Horizon-of-the-Aten, maybe, but a living, ongoing one.

The whole world gets turned upside down by the wish for riches and power. If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. If wishes were soldiers, then weak men would rule. And if wishes were elixirs, then all men would live forever.

Remember the dead do not eat actual solid food, any more than the gods do. They eat the spirit of the food. The priests say a picture of food, or words describing food are as tasty and pleasing as the real thing, to a dead person.

If the Bennu bird could be viewed in relation with the Ibis, it would explain why Thoth has it on his head. The symbolism has nothing to do with the Sun or any divine role it has, but on the contrary, the Sun is being subjugated by Thoth in one hand and a scepter on the other. The proof that this emblem means that the Sun had been conquered therein, is that Akhenaten's depictions show the fork end of the scepter handing over the Ankh directly from the Sun in total contrast to the stance of Thoth who possesses the Authority of 'was' which literally means 'overpower' to extract the Ankh from the Sun as he wishes.

Elijah never had a degree, but he mastered preaching. Daniel never had a degree, but he mastered oracles. Paul never had a degree, but he mastered theology. Jesus never had a degree, but he mastered life. Imhotep never went to university, but he built pyramids. Amenhotep never went to university, but he built schools. Thutmose never went to university, but he built pyramids. Akhenaten never went to university, but he built states. Ramses never went to university, but he built empires.

Akhenaten and his wife Nefertiti turned their backs on the old religion and introduced the worship of Aten. Historians believe that it was they who introduced the world’s first monotheistic religion.

The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind,

Could it not be that Moses and/or the Levites just came to it on their own?! Scholars have a tendency to take any parallel between ancient Israel's culture and assume that Israel took it from the others. Why? I see no good reason at all. Did Moses get this religion from the Midianites? All right then, where did the Midianites get it? Did Moses get if from Akhenaten? All right then, where did Akhenaten get it? If Ahkenaten thought of it on his own, why could an Israelite not have done it on his (or her) own as well? Is it a far-out thought that sometimes more than one person thinks of an idea--without influencing each other, without knowing each other? And we have another crucial consideration. The difference between Israel's monotheism and whatever preceded it is more than arithmetic. It is not just one god versus many. Biblical religion involves a different conception of what this one God is. In pagan religion, the gods and goddesses were identified with forces in nature: the sun, the sky, the sea, death, fertility, the storm wind. Even in Akhenaten's religion, whether it was fully monotheistic or not, Aten was identified closely with the sun. In Israelite religion, no force in nature can tell you more about God than any other.

The heretic Amenhotep IV (aka, Akhenaten) didn't like the symbolism of the conquered and subjugated Sun, this is why we see him lifting up the Sun in his depictions above the other symbols including that of the Sphinx. Putting his head in place of that of the Sphinx in a position of worship towards the Sun while extending his arms (in prayer or reaching out for the Sun rays) could have resembled the caution on his side from publicly offending the upper heavens; the Sphinx is after all Ra-Horakhty.

Remember that the Bennu bird came from Arabia, and this is where the black stone -which is the cornerstone of the Kaaba- exists on Earth. Most of the pyramidia which were discovered in ancient Egypt were made of black granite. The ancient Egyptian symbolism tried to reproduce Adam's heritage according to the same theme and yet on its own location and for its own bloodline aspiring thereby to assume the role of Noah's heir. The sole function of the black capstone/cornerstone was to pinpoint/receive the Messenger with the tidings which he carried; once that role was fulfilled, the stone was rendered operative only on the parallel domain of authority (i.e., Solar System and/or Political) and no more as a portal to the perpendicular (i.e., Upper Heavens). It is significant to note also that the root of the word 'Phoenix' in Arabic is the same root that delivers the word 'Ankh' and 'Enki'. The Babylonian Nabu (the son of Marduk) was in Sumerian times identified with Enki, and it is a straightforward observation to acknowledge the Semitic word 'Nabu' for what it means, i.e., Prophet. It gets even more interesting when one sees what happened to ancient Egypt once heresy broke out after waiting for so long and eventually giving up on seizing the Bennu bird exclusively for Egypt's cause: The Ankh is "finally" received by the heretic Pharaoh Akhenaten and his family through the veneration of Aten. Prior to Amenhotep IV, the sun disk served as a symbol in which major gods appeared, however, from that point on, it was the disk itself that became a god and obviously it was powerful enough to send its own prophets and tidings as one observes in the depictions of that dynasty. After all, it was an Eighteenth Dynasty ruler who succeeded in evicting the Semite Hyksos out of Egypt. [The final expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt by Ahmose I, most probably took place by this pharaoh of the 18th dynasty, Thebes once again became the central capital of Egypt. There was no distinct break in the line of the royal family between the 17th and 18th dynasties.] This is most interestingly the time when [the New Kingdom marked a period of high-quality Shabtis (i.e., answerers). Especially during the 18th and 19th dynasties. Ahmose I, was probably the first pharaoh to take Shabtis with him into the tomb.] It is now obvious that when the Upper Heavens didn't answer Egypt, the Shabtis and Ankhs started to.

The first monotheist religion known to us appeared in Egypt, c.1350 BC, when Pharaoh Akhenaten declared that one of the minor deities of the Egyptian pantheon, the god Aten, was, in fact, the supreme power ruling the universe. Akhenaten institutionalised the worship of Aten as the state religion and tried to check the worship of all other gods.

Aten, a minor solar god – a red disc from which long rays emanated and reached down to earth – was converted into the supreme God, in fact the one and only god, by Akhenaten, the heretic pharaoh. Aten evolved into Jehovah, and Akhenaten’s religion evolved into Jewish monotheism. Akhenaten, or someone very close to him, is the true Moses of the Bible, standing up for the One God against Egyptian polytheism, and leading a mass Exodus of his monotheistic followers away from pagan Egypt to a new Promised Land. Jehovah, therefore, is just a modification of a minor Egyptian sun god.

Amarna was a city that was purposefully built for its ruler to focus attention on the worship of the god Aten, so it was not a city that grew and developed over time, but it must have been nothing short of remarkable.

was the capital of Egypt under the rule of Akhenaten from 1353-1336 BCE.

He removed the high places and brake the images, and cut down the groves; and brake in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it. (II Kings, 18:3–4) The reference is particularly significant because a staff topped by a bronze serpent was the symbol of Pharaoh’s authority.

My king knew no evil. Perhaps that was his tragedy.

But the mouse fancied himself a lion. Therein was the catastrophe.

The land is bright with thy light And is no more in darkness, O Lord, Master of the universe, Of heaven and earth, Of man and animal, O our Creator.

You have chosen your path, so walk it. May the gods protect you,” said Father. “Your forefathers sought war, politics, or trade, but you, Meriamun, you seek the truth instead, and one’s cause ranks as high as the determination vested in it.

Be like history, impartial and open to every witness. Then deliver a truth that is free of bias for those who wish to contemplate it.

The truth is though, that Nefertiti stole his light the moment she left him holding her lifeless body on that bed, she stole his sun and his moon with her last breath, and he would never see sunlight or the sparkling stars again. They went with her. She was his sun, and his moon, and his whole world. From that night onwards, Akhenaten went completely, irrevocably blind, and his sight was extinguished into a world of never ending night.

More than twenty-years-ago I had a dream that opened my eyes to a new reality. I was recovering from surgery which removed five uterine fibroid tumors. Excruciating pain and limited mobility kept me in bed with recurring thoughts about how I had lived my life up to this point. I dosed off to sleep, and found myself in a beautiful garden, having a conversation with an invisible caretaker. It became clear to me that the voice which spoke poetically but emphatically about the healing plants, herbs and trees in the garden was the voice of The Creator.

Some think he was trying to invent monotheism; no less a luminary than Sigmund Freud argued that Moses stole this concept from Akhenaten while the Hebrews were in Egypt. There

The crown of Lower Egypt (i.e., Deshret) was shaped to reflect the rotation of the stars in the sky projecting thereby the Upper Heavens' authority and the crown of Upper Egypt that was shaped as a cone (i.e., Hedjet) was meant to project the Lower Heavens' authority through the Sun's elliptical orbit in the sky (i.e., Analemma) making thereby the '8' pattern. This further supports my assertion that the heresy which erupted in Egypt and culminated in Akhenaten's religious/political mischief was based on rejecting the higher authority and exchanging it with the Sun worship. A further evidence to back this observation can be spotted on the elongated skulls of Akhenaten's family that might had even been Artificial Cranial Deformations to reach such a desired self-destined, liberating and unprecedented royal status.

Akhenaten could have possibly been the ancient Egyptian figure onto whom authority descended (either by self proclaimed inspiration or any other means) to literally and physically cut off the link with the upper heavens.

Akhenaten sought out materialism, for that the upper clocking of the heavens did not serve him. This is when the Sun replaced the Completion of the Tidings in ancient Egypt. A Roman story in retrospect; when the Sol Invictus in the later Roman Empire replaced the Aquila. This explains exactly the heresy of giving the Sphinx name to the Sun by ancient Egyptians.

The discovery of the royal name, Nefertiti, inscribed on a golden scarab could probably support my assertion that Akhenaten broken the link with the upper heavens for that a golden scarab symbolizes the change that Nefertiti's husband had undertaken towards the parallel rather than the perpendicular authority.

If the discovered Golden Scarab was designed to impress Akhenaten himself resembling a token of recognition and love towards his legacy, then one cannot overlook the possibility that there were more of those which were produced by the institution itself or its faithful adherents; this indicates the existence of polarizing elements in Egypt back in those days between a Black Scarab and a Golden Scarab traditions; better said, between the new paradigm of Akhenaten and the legacy of Khufu.

The ancient Egyptians were theologically traumatized from what Saturn used to do (with his adze) to Osiris - the Bull. Saturn/Ra was hunting Osiris and preventing him from ascending to the heavens through the scales. This is why Akhenaten tried to break away from this omen and suppressed the cult of Ra, to prevent (at least) himself from becoming the next sacrificed Osiris.

May the father live, in his aspect of the light, which is in the sun-disk.

She found the proper phrases to greet each person, affording them dignity and respect without relinquishing an iota of the respect due to her.

He is a man. He is governed by power and riches and by his testicles.

God's servant, like the god himself, wore new clothes every day.

The Ankh represents the connection all life has to that which has gone before, the umbilicus. It is the sign of life infused into humans from the divine spark and thence from human to human. The Ankh refers to that which is protected, renewed and vitalized; it is the descent of the eternal principle, the Atum, into the physical plane.

The Sa comes into being when the horizontal plane of reality is fastened by the cosmic cord, the divine principle, to form a protective coil. The universal force that binds all things together forms a center, a mooring post, a place of stability binding heaven and earth.

The Shen is a circle, representing endless time, eternity, bound to a horizontal bar, the earthly plane once more. It protects life by isolating and enclosing it, defining that which it surrounds, defending it against hostile forces.

You are truly the embodiment of a god, my queen,' Sef breathed, 'but even that is beyond your power. Akhenaten--' Meskhenetys scowled. 'Was a heretic. A false idol. I am neither, and I shall have my way.' She set her jaw in defiance. 'My husband has many wives. Why should I play by different rules?

Akhenatens ate Seth (whose animal is: the pig) to war and plagiarize the Osirians and Roman Christians eat Jesus to war and plagiarize the Roman Jews.

The Egyptian/Roman Christian Church (of Akhenaten) sacrificed Osiris in the New East after it had flipped the circular zodiac of Dendera upside down, aligning Jachin to the North with the Great Pyramid's northern shaft orientation; and the new age of the Occident began.

Akhenaten’s religion died with him. Nothing, apparently, came of it. Unless of course, as is just possible, Judaism itself partly came of it. It is conceivable that ideas derived from Akhenaten’s system formed part of that Egyptian ‘Wisdom’ in which Moses was bred. There is nothing to disquiet us in such a possibility. Whatever was true in Akhenaten’s creed came to him, in some mode or other, as all truth comes to all men, from God. There is no reason why traditions descending from Akhenaten should not have been among the instruments which God used in making Himself known to Moses.

I have been asked to speak with true voice. I do find this difficult. It’s like a fire in a house. You smell the smoke, you see the wisps but you are not certain where the fire is burning.

In order to appease the high priests and avoid being murdered, Akhenaten’s son and heir, Tutankhaten (“In the image of Aten”), changed his name to Tutankhamun (“In the image of Amun-Ra”—the old god). The

He replaced the old gods with a sole God, the Aten, who had no image or form, a universal God not just for Egypt, but also for Kush (Nubia) in the south and Syria in the north, a God for the whole world. He was a poet who wrote the hymn to Aten that has a striking resemblance to Psalm 104 of the Bible.

The first stop in the oft-repeated looking up of a word is the massive Egyptian-German dictionary, Wörterbuch der ägyptischen Sprache, a project begun in 1897, its five volumes of entries eventually published between 1926 and 1931. The archive of note slips that were used to compile this dictionary—still a standard reference for hieroglyphic texts—has now been digitized. By inputting the page number and word entry from the published Wörterbuch, we can scroll through scans of paper slips containing handwritten copies of snippets of ancient Egyptian texts containing a particular word.

We take down the first volume of the Wörterbuch der ägyptischen Sprache. On pages 6–7 we indeed see several words with the basic spelling of ab (listed in the dictionary under the transliteration 3b). We note that abeb might well be a writing of the word “abey” (transliteration 3bi), “to desire, to wish.

Although historians often describe Akhenaten as a monotheist, that wasn’t exactly right; he believed other gods existed. They just didn’t hold a candle to Aten. Aten was something special, something fundamental to the nature of reality itself. This belief in the supremacy of one god over other gods is generally called henotheism

Myself, I've always rather fancied being buried at sea and being eaten by fishes...seems only fair considering the amount of fish I've enjoyed eating myself.

Fundamentalism, in whatever form, solves no problems but only suppresses them. We must not succumb to the temptation that from time to time emerges from it and its apparently simple and clear solutions. With its intolerance, it can have no future: things must not be reduced to a single, isolated principle, be it ever so noble and elevated. Always and above all, the whole is at stake.

the king of Egypt, Akhenaten, and his successor, Tutankhamun, fought against the Hittites but kept losing lands.

Three thousand, three hundred and seventy years is a remarkably long time for knowledge of the events of a single day to survive. On the day in question, February 22, 1347 BCE (give or take a week or two), there were only a few places in the world where such knowledge even had a chance of surviving. Of course, Egypt had hieroglyphs—the “word of god” as the Egyptians termed it. The ancient Near East employed the cuneiform script, first developed for Sumerian in the southern portion of Mesopotamia (roughly the modern countries between the eastern Mediterranean coast and the Tigris River), then adapted for Akkadian and later for Hittite (and other languages). Early Greek was written in the syllabic Linear B script of the Mycenaean world, while in Shang Dynasty China, written characters were in use as aspects of divinatory practices. As far as we know, no other culture possessed a writing system at this time.

Be careful what you wish for," said Groanin. "Not because you'll get it, but because you're doomed not to want it very much when you do.

Chân lý không bao giờ thay đổi với không gian và thời gian, chỉ có những giáo điều, vốn là sự phát minh của các giáo sĩ, thì phải thay đổi để thích nghi với hoàn cảnh. Điều này cũng dễ hiểu vì giáo điều chỉ là sự tưởng tượng của giới giáo sĩ, đặt ra để giải thích các hiện tượng trong tự nhiên mà họ không thể hiểu được mà thôi. Trời nóng hay lạnh cũng do thần linh đặt ra, trời mưa hay nắng cũng do thần linh đặt ra, những chẳng bao giờ các ngươi tự hỏi thần linh đặt ra nó vì mục đích gì? Nếu các người không hiểu được ẩn nghĩa, các sự kiện ẩn tàng trong tự nhiên thì không bao giờ các ngươi có thể hiểu được thần linh hết.
