Hello all,
I was wondering if someone could direct me to an authentic copy of the Egyptian Book of the Dead (or "Life", I noticed there's a debate as to what the title is, or are there 2 books?) I was looking on amazon and saw numerous copies but want to make sure the one I choose is authentic, or in other words, the orignial text simply translated. I've read Samael's book of the dead, but I find it insightful to read works such as the Bible, Koran, etc. in light of Gnosis. Any suggestions would be of help, thanks. P.S. does anyone also know of an authentic Koran translation? there is also debate on the many translations of this text, it's difficult these days will all the opinions of man. -------------------- “Darkness is never dissolved with hand’s blows, but with the light. Neither is error dissolved by combating it with violence, but by teaching the truth."
