In Ancient Egypt, religious ceremonies took the form of Dramatic
Performances similar to Greek Theater. A Kheri-Heb Priest was their
form of Film Director. Other Priests were essentially Actors,
performing a role while wearing a Mask or Costume, and reading lines
from a text. The ceremony was performed in the Temples to an audience
of "worshipers." Idols are a form of Award (i.e. Academy Awards) given
to the Priest for his work. Some statues were given offerings by the
people, as offerings were both a form of Tax and revenue for the play.
Funerary plays included the Lamentation of Isis & Nephthys, the
Death and Resurrection of Osiris, the Battles of Horus and Seth, etc.
Other plays served other reasons.
My ceremonies I conducted in the 1990s were similar. I have no other
priests so I did everything myself; in place of costumes or masks I used
Letterhead and Identities; along with my Magical FX using
Chronokinesis. I am a KheriHeb Master. This serves as an area of study
in my profession as Archaeologist & Egyptologist.
