The Egyptian Tree of Life

Amir Fatir, author of Islamic Yoga and Fitrah Science, maps the ten spheres of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life onto the gods and goddesses of ancient Egypt, sphere by sphere. Each chapter pairs a sephira with its Neter: the netert of the home sphere 10, the Heru sphere of the will, the Het-Heru sphere of nature and pleasure, and upward through the trinities to Amen, Nu and Atem at the limitless sphere zero. The book's engine is the Ausarian narrative, which Fatir reads psychologically: Ausar as the indwelling divinity, Auset as the enlightened subconscious that rules expertly in his absence, Set as the forces of jealousy and distraction that dismember unity. From this grammar the later chapters build practice, with sections on creation as described in The Book of Knowing the Transformations of Ra, on meditation and ritual with the Tree, on the pleasure principle of Het-Heru, and on the Egyptian initiation system itself, closing with a study of the Egyptian destiny of the United States. The result is a distinctive synthesis in which Kamitic religion, Kabbalah and Sufi-adjacent science of the fitrah speak one language, written for readers who work with either system.
