The ultimate thing is God. The cosmological ideas of ancient Egypt were expressed by myth and symbolism, which are a superior means for expressing metaphysical concepts. Philosophy, mathematics and science are dry subjects with many abstracts. Mythology incorporates philosophical and scientific ideas into a story form, like a sacred drama or mystery plays, which can be easily digested. Pure philosophical and scientific abstracts and terms do not guarantee understanding.
Information alone is useless, unless it is transformed into understanding.
Well-crafted mythology can achieve understanding of knowledge. Myth Myth is an intentionally chosen means for communicating knowledge. Myth dramatizes cosmic laws, principles, processes, relationships and functions, and expresses them in an easy to understand way. Meaning and the mystic experience are not tied to a literal interpretation of events. A myth has no historical value.
