Kama'at

KAMA’AT Whereas the priest honors and worships the gods, the kama’at, Or “soul of balance,” honors Ma’at, the guiding principle of the Cosmos. To kama’at, the gods are part of the balance of creation, But only a part, with no one god more important than the Others. Equally vital are the cycles of life, death and rebirth, Personified by the voyage of the sun, the cycles of the moon, the Flooding of the mighty river Stygian. All these things are reflections Of the perfect balance of Ma’at, the rightful nature of the world. In this, the kama’at finds both meaning and power. It is not Power over nature, but power from the understanding of nature. It is by turns kind and cruel, as are the kama’at themselves
