Horus and Set .. and the balance between them.

The equilibrium was the essence of Egyptian mysticism (alchemy), and the ancient Egyptian artist expressed the symbols of alchemy in many inscriptions and statues.

The symbols of ancient Egyptian art were not a record of historical events as much as they were a recording and documentation of the ancient and spiritual sciences of the Egyptians.

Among the most beautiful and deepest symbols is this statue of King Ramses III, which is displayed in the Egyptian Museum.

King Ramesses the Third stands surrounded by Hor (Horus) and Set, which are two contradictory forces of contradiction.

Despite the contradiction between Hor and Set, each of them places their hand on one side of the white crown .... the crown of Upper Egypt, the symbol of the supreme self of man. King Ramesses the Third stands between the two opposing forces and has created a balance between them

They are harmonious inside the pineal gland, which is very similar to the shape of the white crown.

Six among the ancient Egyptians was the cosmic force that represents the principle of division (division) in the universe.

Looking back on the story of Isis and Osiris, we find that Set cut the body of his brother Osiris into 14 parts after killing him. This shredding of Osiris symbolizes the human being falling into a physical body to become a prisoner of the physical world

It is governed by the laws of division, and they are the laws that lead to the reproduction of creatures, but at the same time, they lead to their death.

If God is the One / One, then Sat is considered an opponent of God because it leads to division, so some consider that Sat is a symbol of evil in the sense of opposing God, but in reality, he plays an important role in the system of creation.

As for Hour, it is a symbol of the cosmic force that helps the man who overcomes the laws of division in the material world and returns to the world of the soul ... the world of unity (uniqueness) to unite again with the original that came from him, loaded with his conscious experience in the world of matter.

This balance and harmony between the contradictory cosmic forces was the goal of the Egyptian Sufi represented in the person of the king. The Egyptian artist portrayed him eloquently, including many meanings in one piece of art.
