Re: Maybe Ma'at is Good
In Response To: Maybe Ma'at is Good *NM* ()

Ites!
In the context of human ethics, Ma'at is good. But meta-physically, Ma'at is beyond good or bad. As I posted previously, good and bad are human overstandings. InI know that a finite being such as humanity cannot overstand the infinite.

"Ma'at was reality, the solid grounding of reality that made the Sun rise, the stars shine, the river flood and mankind think. The universe itself, all the world around them, was sacred in the ancient view. "Ethics" is an issue of human will and human permission. It is a function of the human world of duality. What is "ethical" for one group is sin for another. But Ma'at, the reality that made all groups what they are is transcendent of ethics, just as a rock or a flower is amoral, a-ethical, without "truth or falsehood." How can a flower be "false" or "ethical." It just is. How can the universe be "ethical or moral, right or wrong"? It simply is. That is Ma'at."

Give thanks for the reasonings.
