I want to create more posts soon regarding configuring window managers for Linux and FreeBSD, I am curious on the interest regarding this topic before I make these tech posts?
Papyrus Leiden I 350, Great Hymn to Amun, Karnak (New Kingdom):
“I am Amun, the One, who made all that exists.”
“Hidden is his name more than any god.”
“No god knows his true appearance.”
“His form is not known.”
“He is hidden even from the gods.”
“He made himself into millions.”
“All gods came into being after him."
“He hears the prayer of the poor.”
“He comes at the voice of the one who calls him.”
“I am Atum.”
“I was alone in Nun.”
“There was no other with me."
“I came into being by myself.”
“I created myself.”
“I brought my name into existence.”
“I was not born of a mother.”
“I was not conceived by a father.”
My apologies for a lack of new tech posts, I have been very swamped with responsibilities and am dealing with some serious mental and emotional situations in my life that have left me very shattered and debilitated. I will pick myself back up as soon as possible to be useful to all of you. I love you all.
Herodotus (5th century BCE) – Histories (Book 2.42)
"The Egyptians call their highest god Amun, whom the Greeks identify with Zeus. For it is their belief that he is the ruler of all and the father of gods and men."
Corpus Hermeticum – Asclepius and Poimandres (2nd century CE)
"God is eternal and invisible, but the Logos by which he creates is light and sound, the mind of God Himself."
"Zeus is the Logos through which all things are governed."
(Temple of Karnak, various inscriptions)
"Amun, who made all things, who created what is, the father of the gods, who made men and formed all beings, the hidden one in the heavens, the Lord of the Thrones of the Two Lands."
“Ram-horned one, whose thunder shakes not the sky but the soul,
you are the deep breath of the world, the hidden sun that shines within all minds.”
— Orphic Priest of Thebes
“Amun is the name the desert gave you, Zeus is the name the mountains echo.
But neither name is your root — you are the source of names, the voice before speech.”
— Fragment of Synesius of Cyrene
"For man, as these writings affirm, has two souls. The one is from the First Intelligence and is participant of the power of the Creator, but the other is given from the revolutions of the worlds of the sky, to which the God-beholding soul returns."
