Description​

The Egyptian Amduat, “Book of the Hidden Chamber”, is a fascinating text from ancient Egypt that describes the journey of the deceased. It tells of a twelve-hour long voyage beyond death through a mysterious realm known as the Duat. Every human being, embarking on this journey, will renew themselves to eventually rise from the dead.

In the decade the author worked on this text, she discovered that the journey, as described in the Amduat, is a voyage of Initiation. During the journey, the old consciousness, symbolised by the Sungod Râ, is dissolved and transformed into the birth and awakening of a renewed consciousness, which is symbolised by the God Khepri. The process is not limited to the post mortem state, for it occurs during life as well. Therefore, not only the deceased, but every living being on earth can embark on the voyage in question.

Today, the Amduat is still a system qualified to heighten our consciousness. The inner Sungod teaches us how to navigate safely and transform the psyche’s destructive forces into constructive powers. This life-changing magical journey is a wake-up call to allow us to see who we really are— divine beings— and to become reborn as our Greater Self.

The book, Amduat: The Great Awakening presents the entire Egyptian system in a unique and interesting blend of academic and esoteric knowledge, intertwined with the author’s personal experience of the system itself. It is also a practical workbook to teach the reader how to embark on the Sun barque, to make the inspiring voyage of inner awakening.

stupidly, NONE of the ebooks i own of the Book of Gates or Amduat have complete pages for the hours. every single book (even ones not onviously scanned) split the hours horribly in to 2 sides. For purposes of inner work, a clean, single copy of each hour would be a big help.

by the way, I have Diane Kreikamp's Amduat version, in paper copy, and its really dense. it takes me a approximately 90 minutes to read a single chapter, she has a lot to say about every small detail, so quite a nice book.
However, a big downside is that she doesnt show the original hieroglyphics and translation, only parts. and nothing beats having the full original. So Erik Hornung is still number 1.

Two people have replied saying they have this book. Care to scan it and upload it, since that's my request?

I didn't ask for book reviews, there's another sub-forum for that.
