Meditation is simple. It is so simple that we invent all kinds of complications to make it more interesting.

Some random words in Ancient Egyptian

1. Hetep or Hotep = Peace. Also used as part of the greeting: “Em hotep,” meaning: “In peace,” along with its variations: “Em hotep nefer,” (“In great peace,”) and “Em hotep nefer weret,” (“In very great peace,”).

28. Khered = Child

29. Izi nek djesek! = Go f*** yourself! (note: they probably didn’t actually say this, but this is sort of how you would say it if the did. Likewise with the next word.)
