The Book of Gates is more than a guide to the mysteries of the Underworld, because life and death, east and west, light and darkness cannot be easily separated or understood without deciphering the origins and laws by which they are governed. The reader’s curiosity will therefore be satisfied by the diversity of the texts, which tell the story of the first gods, of the constant and vital struggle between Re and Apophis, of the way in which the god Shu, the embodiment of the atmosphere, maintains the necessary distance between the sky goddess Nut and her brother-husband, Geb, the earth, of the transformations that Osiris, Hathor, Thoth go through in their struggle to preserve the sacred order of creation, Maat.
