Oh Re, come to me, oh guide
Thus said Ra, the Lord of All, Lord of the Utmost limits, Neb-Er-Tchar spoke after he had come into Existence:
I am he who came into being in the form of the Kheper Ra I am He who comes into being and brings into being. When I came into being, existence itself came into being. All Existence came into being after I came into Existence. Many were the beings that came forth from the commands of my mouth.
I made the universe, and have created all that there in I am the Creator of the world, and it was I who fashioned it with my hands before there was any beginning What my heart conceived came to pass and when I have spoken my word it came to pass, and it shall endure forever.
All Manifestation came into being out of my Desire, that aroused me to create the universe. I am the creator of all which came into being, I rose out of my own creation, the celestial Primordial Ocean, My father, Nu, which existed in a state of inertness and helplessness. that is to say, I am the Father & the Mother of My own Existence. I am the creator of everything which came into being: Now the things which I created, and which came forth out of my divine Utterance were exceedingly many.
Heaven had not come into being, Earth did not exist, nor the children of the earth, and all the creeping things, had not been created yet. I myself raised them up from out of Nu the primeval Cosmic Ocean, from a state of helpless inertness.
I found no place where on I could stand in the vast empty space which I created Heka is My Name, I am my own Will, I uttered the name of the thing, on which to stand, and all things, and places, came into being. I laid the foundation of all things by Thoth my Heart and Maat, my Order I live with my daughter Maat, 'one within me, the other around me'. I created everything which had form. Laying the foundations to all in my heart and Desire.
It was I who came into being in my manner of being, taking on existence as what exists. Thus I came into existence in the Primal Time. After that beginning a host of ways of being came into existence, for before then there was no mode of existence whatsoever in this world. All that I did I accomplished alone, before any other being came into existence to create alongside me in these places. There I created the modes of being with the energy in me. There I created in Nu Nu,( the cosmos) while still drowsy, while I had yet to find any ground on which to stand upright. But then my heart was filled with energy, the design of creation appeared before me, and I accomplished everything I wanted to do, being alone. Conceiving designs in my heart, I created a different mode of existence and multitudinous ways of being were born of the Existent. I was one by myself, for I had not emitted from myself the Shu ( Air, Space) I had not spat out from myself Tefnut; (Moisture, Water) there existed none, who could create my will.
I laid the foundations of things in my own heart of Divine Conciseness, and there came into being the multitudes of my creation, which came into being from my creation which were born from my created Souls which arose from what they brought forth.
I embraced my Shadowy Hand as a wife, I Copulated and had union with my hand, and I poured seed into my own mouth, and I sent forth from my seed energies and begot the form of my energies I sneezed out Shu (Light & Air) and Spat out Tefnut (Moisture).
Tefnut (Moister & Water) is my living daughter she shall be together with her brother Shu ( Air, Gas, Space); his name is Life and her name is Maat (Balance, Truth, Justice and Order).
My father Nu Said: My Eye was covered up behind Shu and Tefnut, but after two hen periods had passed from the time when they departed from me, from being one, I became three gods, (the Power of Trinity) and I came into being in Matter. Then Shu and Tefnut rejoiced from out of the inert watery mass Where in they and I were, and they brought to me my Eye (my Vision).
Now after these things I gathered together my members, and I wept over them, and men and women sprang into being from the tears which came forth from my Eye.
And when my Eye (my Vision) came to me, and found that I had made another Eye in place where it was , It was wroth with, raged at me, whereupon I endowed it (i.e., the (second Vision ) with the splendor which I had made for the first Eye (first Vision), and I made it to occupy its place in my Face, and henceforth it ruled throughout all this earth.
When there fell on them their moment through plant-like clouds, I restored what had been taken away from them, and I appeared from out of the plant-like clouds. I created creeping things of every kind, and everything which came into being from them. Shu and Tefnut brought forth Seb and Nut; and Seb and Nut brought forth Osiris, and Heru-khent-an-maati, and Set, and Isis, and Nephthys at one birth, one after the other, and they produced their multitudinous offspring in this earth.
I am Ptah, I am not created, but simply Am. I am who have created existence by means of my heart and my tongue by speaking the names of all things, I Ptah caused them to be.
There came into being as the heart and there came into being as the tongue in the form of Atum. I am The mighty Great One Ptah, who transmitted life to all Netjeru, as well as to their kas...
Thus it happened that the heart and tongue gained control over every other member of the body, by teaching that I am in every body and in every mouth of all gods, all humans, all cattle, all creeping things, and every thing that lives, by thinking and commanding everything that I wish Thus all the gods were formed and My Ennead was completed.
Indeed, all the divine order really came into being through what the heart thought and the tongue commanded. Thus the ka-spirits were made... by this speech... Thus were made all work and all crafts, the action of the arms, the movement of the legs, and the activity of every member, in conformance with this command which the heart thought, which came forth through the tongue, and which gives value to everything.
from my Utterance of my Name, Word and will. I am the Heka that existed before duality had yet come into being.
I am Atum who gives sweet
air which you breath
which separates the
earth from the sky.
if I grow old, it will grow old;
I have gone round
about the egg,
I am who have created Maat, the divine order I am master of destiny I died and rose again, I am resurrection, and the way into a another future life. I am Ta-Tenen as the primeval mound
I am the breath of life which emerged from the throat of the Benu bird, I am Re in whom Atum appeared in the primeval Naught, infinity, darkness and nowhere."
I am Atum! When I came into being
I rose up as a High
Promodial Hill, "I am Atum-Kheper Ra, I became high on the height, I rose up as a benben in the Mansion of the Benu."
The Four Good Deeds of God
WORDS SPOKEN BY HIM WHOSE NAMES ARE HIDDEN.
the Lord of All, The
Lord to the Limit speaks as He speaks before those who silence the storm during the sailing of the company of Ra; Hail and Peace! I repeat to you the Four Good Deeds which my own heart and mind did for me in the midst of the serpent coil of evil, in order to silence the turmoil. I did Four Good Deeds on the threshold of the horizon. I created the four winds so that every person might breathe in his or her time and place. This is one of the deeds. I created the great flood for irrigation so that the humble might benefit from it like the great. This too, is one of the deeds. I made every person like his and her fellow; and I did not command them to do evil. It was in their own hearts and minds which caused them to disobey that which I commanded. This too is one of the deeds. I made the hearts of men and women so that they would not forget the day of death, so that sacred offerings might be made to the divine powers of the Nomes. And this too is one of the deeds. Thus, I have created the divine powers from my sweat and humankind from the tears of my eye.
SELF DEFINITION BY RA
And His Majesty Ra, Lord of All, spoke to Isis the Great, saying: I am He who made heaven and earth and knitted together the mountains and created all that exist upon them. I am He who made the primeval water and caused heaven to come into being. I am He who made the male and the female so that the joys of love might come into the world. I am He who made the heavens and the hidden places of the two horizons so that the souls may dwell in them. I am He who when He opens His eyes, it becomes light and when He closes His eyes, it becomes dark; He at whose command the waters of the Nile rise and whose name the Exalted Ones do not know. I am He who creates the hours so that the days come into being. I am He who initiates the New year festivals and creates the flood waters. I am He who made living fire so that the works of the houses might be performed.
I am Kheper, the Bringer into Being, in the morning, Ra, the Most High and Glorious at noon and Atum, the Complete One in the evening.
The Spell of Eternity
I shine, and am seen every
day
against whom the
otherworldly serpents have not rebelled.
who calms the storm,
the many-named who
comes forth from his shrine,
equipped with
otherworldly knowledge;
which is on the end of
the book-roll;
who is within my
body. for all time and all eternity! Thus, he recounts all his beneficial deeds when he created the world, and for the first time, we also find him foretelling the end of this creation after "millions of years". Apparently, only he and the followers of Osiris will survive beyond this end of time.
