This is not a path for everyone. The
ressurrection of which I speak is not a common transmigration of the spirit-soul from one
mortal khat (body) to another, though ressurrection may entail the hiving of the mortal
part. Neither is it the rising of men at the last day. Though that last day comes for all
incarnate forms of existence. Those who have gained the favour of Osiris shall recieve the
Sahu, a form of etheric body wherewith to ascend to the Old Ones, the Gods and Goddesses
of your ancient mythologies. I do not speak of the exhumation of the rotting carcass and
its animation, for which purpose the custom of mummification was so subtly
misconstrued.
The ressurrection of which I speak
concerns the revival and restoration of an ancient, genetically encoded memory which
predates that of your own species, locked deeply within the nervous and endocrine system
of the mortal human shell. It has been alluded to many times in your history in the
ramblings of ancient poets. It has been perceived by your mystics, ritualised by your
priests, ridiculed and worshipped by your philosophers, manipulated by your alchemists,
and rationally dissected by your scientists.
The key to unlocking this
Mother of memory lies beyond discursive argument or reasoning. Word merely attempts to
reflect reality, to form through its limitations a distorted representation of something
truly only vaguely perceived. This then is but my own distorted representation, but mark
it well...
I
am He who is constantly appearing, whose real nature is unknown. I order how I am fated,
like the Great Beetle. Let the Masters of the Eternal Domain guide all who travel the Lion
Path, a journey to apotheosis.
