The Heart of the Pharaoh is

True.

The Weighing of the Heart in the Hall of Maat. ⚖️

To the ancient Egyptians, the judgment of the dead was the process that allowed the Egyptian gods to judge the worthiness of the souls of the deceased.

Deeply rooted in the Egyptian belief in immortality, judgment was one of the most important parts of the journey through the afterlife.

As such, many variations of judgment scenes appear in the Egyptian afterlife texts. Each soul that entered the afterlife was handled individually during judgment.

When the deceased had completed their journey through the underworld, they arrived at the Hall of Maat.

Here their purity would be the determining factor in whether they would be allowed to enter the Kingdom of Osiris.

The deceased’s first task was to correctly address each of the forty-two Assessors of Maat by name, while reciting the sins they did not commit during their lifetime.

This process allowed the dead to demonstrate that they knew each of the judges’ names or Ren and established that they were pure, and free of sin.

After confirming that they were sinless, the deceased was presented with the balance that was used to weigh their heart against the feather of Maat.

Anubis was the god often seen administering this test.

If the deceased’s heart balanced with the feather of Maat, Thoth would record the result and they would be presented to Osiris, who admitted them into the Sekhet-Aaru.

However, if their heart was heavier than the feather, it was to be devoured by the Goddess Ammit, permanently destroying the soul of the deceased, ceasing to exist.

マアトの広間での心臓の秤量。⚖️

古代エジプト人にとって、死者の審判は、エジプトの神々が死者の魂の価値を判断するための儀式でした。

エジプト人の不死信仰に深く根ざした審判は、来世への旅路において最も重要な要素の一つでした。

そのため、エジプトの来世に関する文献には、様々な審判の場面が登場します。来世へと旅立った魂は、審判において個別に扱われました。

死者は冥界の旅を終えると、マアトの広間に到着します。

ここで、彼らの清浄さが、オシリスの王国への入城を許されるかどうかの決定要因となりました。

死者の最初の任務は、42人のマアトの審判官一人ひとりの名前を正しく呼び、生前に犯さなかった罪を唱えることでした。

この儀式によって、死者は裁判官全員の名前、あるいはレンを知っていることを証明し、自分たちが清浄で罪のない者であることを立証することができました。

罪がないことが確認された後、死者には心臓をマアトの羽根と比較するための天秤が差し出されました。

この試練を執行する神はアヌビス神であることがよく見られました。

死者の心臓がマアトの羽根と釣り合った場合、トート神はその結果を記録し、死者はオシリス神に差し出され、オシリス神は死者をセケト・アールに迎え入れました。

しかし、死者の心臓が羽根よりも重かった場合、心臓は女神アムミットに飲み込まれ、死者の魂は永久に破壊され、存在しなくなります。
