THE PRAYER OF MAAT WHICH INSTILS DISCIPLINE OF THOUGHT AND BETTER SELF DEVELOPMENT

Poetry or verse or a definite rhythm-pattern is often used to drive a matter deeply into one's subconscious. Now we are going to have an example of the type of thing which the Egyptians used to do. Unfortunately it loses a lot of its power by being translated into English. 

In the original Egyptian the words swayed rhythmically and achieved the desired purpose, but just think for yourself, if you get a piece of poetry and you translate it from English or Spanish into, let us say, German, you get the sounds all wrong, you get the balance all wrong, and so it does not have the same effect.

In fact, some poems cannot be translated at all into another language, so this ‘Confession to Maat’ is not as good as it would be in Egyptian.


This is a temple confession which was said in the Chamber of Maat in the Egyptian Temple of Initiation. It is as written in the Egyptian Book of the Dead, it was actually an invocation. Maat, you may remember, is the Egyptian word meaning ‘Truth’. So the Chamber of Maat became the Chamber, or Temple, of Truth.


Here is the Confession to Maat which should be repeated 9 times in a day. Thus 3x each in the morning, afternoon and evening. Most important is saying it before one goes to sleep. If one repeats this as did the Egyptians, then It leads one to a much purer life. 

Try it and see !

THE CONFESSION TO MAAT 

Homage to Thee, Oh Great God, Thou Master of all Truth. 

I have come to Thee, Oh my God, and have brought myself hither that I may become conscious of Thy decrees.

 I know Thee and am attuned with Thee and Thy two and forty laws which exist with Thee in this Chamber of Maat.

In Truth I come into Thy Attunement, and I have brought Maat in my mind and Soul.

I have destroyed wickedness for Thee.

I have not done evil to mankind.

I have not oppressed the members of my family.

I have not wrought evil in place of right and Truth.

I have had no intimacy with worthless men.

I have not demanded first consideration.

I have not decreed that excessive labour be performed for me.

I have not brought forward my name for exaltation to honours.

I have not defrauded the oppressed of Property.

I have made no man suffer hunger.

I have made no one to weep.

I have caused no pain to be inflicted upon man or animal.

I have not defrauded the Temples of their oblations.

I have not diminished from the bushel.

I have not filched away land.

I have not encroached upon the fields of others.

I have not added to the weights of the scales to cheat the

seller and I have not misread the pointer of the scales to cheat 

the buyer.

I have not kept milk from the mouths of children.

I have not turned back the water at the time it should flow.

I have not extinguished the fire when it should burn.

I have not repulsed God in His Manifestation.

I am Pure ! I am Pure ! I am Pure !

My purity is the purity of the Divinity of the Holy Temple.

THEREFORE EVIL SHALL NOT BEFALL ME IN THIS WORLD,

BECAUSE I, EVEN I, KNOW THE LAWS OF GOD WHICH ARE

GOD.

**********************

This prayer should be repeated 9 times; thus 3x in the morning, afternoon and evening. And the appropriate hour to drive the matter to the subconscious is: 5:00 am in the morning, 14:00 in the afternoon and 20:00 in the evening.

May the spirit guide us all.

Adiós.
