The
Ancient Egyptians
believed that a number of parts made up the human soul. These were: The
Khet
or
physical essence
(the belief in this led to the practice of mummification.
Sah
spiritual body
.
Ren
or the personal
name
Ba
or the individual
personality
Ka
life force
. This is the essential difference between the living and the dead.
Ib
or the
heart
(the heart was regarded as a special part of the body).
Shut
silhouette
(always present, although only visible as a shadow in light).
Akh
intellect
(pure intellect rather than the human mind).
Sehkem
or f
orm
(the life force of the soul itself). If the
was strong enough to survive the physical death of the body, it would be the next best thing to everlasting life, wouldn't it? This happened to
THE KA Of STEPHEN CHARLES.
