Mind-Bodyand Spirit:
KemeticWisdomTeaching on the purpose of life:
“The purpose of all human life is
to achieve a state of consciousness apart from bodily concerns.”
This statement, “state of consciousness apart from bodily concerns”is further elucidated in the fol-
lowing quote from the ancient Kemetictexts:
“Know thyselfas the pride of creation, the link uniting divinity and matter;
behold a part of The Divine Itself within thee;
remember thine own dignity nor dare descend to evil or meanness.”
