the place where the world is believed to have been born is located in a northwestern suburb of Cairom , History is said to have been built up since then . This city subsequently known as Heliopolis (city of the sun-god) by the Greeks and Ain-Shams (eye of the sun) by the Arabs , is likely one of the world’s earliest sacred places. While its unexcavated ruins lay beneath decades of fields and towns , the site remains a symbolic memorial to Ra , ancient Egypt’s greatest god.
How to world came to be ( how the RA world was created )
The narrative of how Ra created all we know is both intriguing and illuminating According to Egyptian mythology, before creation, The ocean where life begins is shrouded in darkness . Later , Whenlife was ready to begin , he decide that it was time to create an object called Atum An island sprang from the ocean to support this divinity, who took the shape of Ra, Egypt’s sun god.
Ra created the first gods, Shu (Dryness and Air) and his consort Tefnut (Humidity), on a Primeval hill, who would spawn additional gods to complete the Cosmos: Geb the Earth deity, and Nut the sky goddess. These two, in turn, gave birth to the Principles of Life, namely Osiris the Perfect Being, who would eventually rule over the remainder of the world which Ra was occupied with. constructing by naming the elements. And, by the way, humanity came about as a result of his tears.
Osiris was a knowledgeable and compassionate monarch who taught humanity cultivation and civilization. They made the ideal couple with his sister/wife Isis, who assisted her husband with creativity and magic. Seth their sibling, was powerful yet rebellious, the polar opposite of his brother.
In fact, Seth was so envious of Osiris that he murdered him in order to inherit his throne and rule Egypt the way he desired. Despite her love for their brothers, Seth’s sister/partner Nephthys was unable to halt the murder.
Killing Osiris was not such a horrible idea after all. He was revived by his wife’s sorcery long enough to impregnate her with son Horus, who would later avenge his father and reclaim the ancient Egyptian kingdom. Then Osiris went to reign over the dead in the Otherworld, insuring resurrection and the circle of life.

However, the misconceptions do not stop there. Humanity revolted against Ra when he was fine-tuning his creations. The deity opted on annihilation and begged his tear-giving eye for assistance once more. To complete her mission, the eye turned herself into a ferocious lioness and began murdering humans,
delighting in her prey. Ra felt sad for the loving children when he observed the devastation, and tears ‘came out of his eye.’ He put an end to the carnage but refused to dwell among humans again.
This led to his voyage to the Otherworld, where Ra established the 12 hours of daylight by sailing the sky from the Eastern horizon to the Western horizon, lighting the world and permitting all creatures to live. creations to bloom in the light of his beams Ra then sailed the Underworld, illuminating the dead,
destroying the enemies of creation, and regenerating himself in a union with Osiris, the god of resurrection, until he reached the Western horizon.
Ra came in the shape of a falcon at dawn on the Eastern horizon, known as Hor-Akhtar, or Horus of the Horizon, the falcon that flies high in the sky (Horus = one who is high up). Ra, on the other hand, had various guises. He could also be represented as a scarab called kheper (the one who comes into being),
an analogy based not only on the pun between the scarab’s name and the verb “to happen,” but also because the scarab, which emerges from the desert sands at the first rays of the sun, was thought to be self-created. By midday, the sun god had reverted to Ra, as represented by the sun disk. At dusk, he morphed into Atum, an elderly man who had finished his life cycle. was about to vanish in order to be regenerated for a new day.
who is the creator of this world ?
According to this myth, the Sun God Ra has always been the most powerful god in ancient Egypt. The divinized monarch of Egypt was regarded as the son of the Sun God during the Old Kingdom (2800 BCE) when ancient Egypt created its institutions and articulated its royal philosophy. During a coronation, the king’s name as Ra’s son was engraved on a cartouche with his title as King of Upper and Lower Egypt.
Kings constructed temples in his honor, endowing them with lands and clergy to serve his religion, and they attached sun god chapels to their own memorial temples around the nation. By the New Kingdom (c. 1500-1000 BCE),
the cult of Amun, the Empire’s political deity, was attempting to establish itself. overshadow Ra’s significance The rulers of the 18th dynasty, on the other hand, responded angrily. The embellishments on their graves in Western Thebes’ Valley of the Kings reinforce the dominance of the sun deity, in whom kings merged after death to share an endless life.
During Akhenaton’s brief “monotheistic phase,” the king renounced all gods but the sun deity himself, writing songs to the god that were subsequently repeated in King David’s biblical psalms. Even after Akhenaton’s reign, the majority of Egypt’s main gods fused with Ra to form Amon-Ra, Khnum-Ra, Sobek-Ra, and so on.. It would take centuries and Roman invasion before the religion of Ra began to wane.
Even now, in a contemporary ancient Egypt enthralled by its old culture, the story lives on. Ra’s flaming eye is recalled in popular songs and local idioms, and his reflections may still be heard in folklore. The word Ra can also be found in everything from Hollywood movies to video games. Clearly, the resurrection of this greatest ancient God is as predictable as the rising of the sun in the east.
