Chapter CLXXVI Chapter of Not Dying a Second Time in the Netherworld

I execrate the land of the East. I do not go to the dungeon, for I have not done those things which are forbidden by the gods.

For I have passed through the place of purification in the middle of the Meskat;(1) the inviolate god has given me his glorious attributes on the day when the two Earths were united in the presence of the Master of (all) things.

He who knows this chapter is a mighty Chu in the Netherworld.

Notes
