Side effects from taking doing the Initiatic path. 

The initiation path is a concept in Theosophy in which human beings are said to pass through different stages or gateways of spiritual development. This process is largely hidden while being under the auspices of the beings that guide this planet, the Masters of Wisdom. 

We will take you through the route that great leaders and later Pharaohs took to accomplish the next step in humanity The Homo Sanctus Luminous. Unearthing the secrets of Ancient Egypt and get to know the vibrant culture of Egypt's most emblematic cities and sights.
The ancient civilizations that founded Egypt and most Pharaohs believed that Nile played an important part in this path. The Nile represents life; being so ancient, yet so young and rejuvenating. They also believed that the Nile represents the vertebral column of Africa, without it humanity would have never survived.

Day: 

The process of doing the Initiation path for enlightenment, starts at the root chackra at Philae and working their way north to the soul star at Giza. This journey used to take years, learning specific lessons, and fine tuning the body's energy points (chackras) in order to achieve this mastery of becoming enlightened. Temples are houses for the gods to whom they were dedicated. These services and rituals were seen as necessary for the gods to uphold Ma’at—the divine order of the universe.

Egyptians created neters or animal gods whose traits embodied the personalities of the chackra system. For those struggling to master the world within themselves, then a stroll beside the river may have inspired fresh insights. 

Another reason for this path is to achieve unconditional love, reliving the path Isis took. According to Egyptian legend, Isis took a boat and gathered the fragments of Osiris’s body, and built a temple wherever she found one.

So the most profound difference between ancient and modern man was that our ancestors considered themselves part of the animal kingdom—not separate from it. The true process of enlightenment then, meant recognizing the animal spirits (Neters) of the world around us as a reflection of our inner natures.
