I had never heard of this guy which means that you may well be becoming one of my teachers!!!!!

I understand the Divine through Netjer, and have always considered myself religion-phobic (a good reason I am interested in Andrew Bowen now as you suggest he started from the same place).

We know that the Ancient Egyptians called their “gods” Netjer / Netjeru, but we are not entirely sure of the full scope of the meaning of that word. As our word “nature” comes from this term apparently, I think that is a clue. This, to me, echoes:

“I can have faith in the divine’s existence, but no specific beliefs regarding its details. Therefore, I simply live and participate in life—in the moment—instead of miring myself in the details.”

That’s what I strive for, as best I know how.
