What is the Glorious Light Meditation?

The Glorious Light is a meditation system discovered by Sebai Dr. Muata Ashby and published in the book The Glorious Light Meditation Technique of Ancient Egypt. The GLM system is contained in the mythic Story of Hetheru and Djehuty. The mythic Story of Hetheru and Djehuty is sometimes referred to by traditional Egyptologists as the "Story of the Golden Cow" or the "Destruction of Men." However we know it as the "Story of Hetheru and Djehuty."

This discipline is the earliest known recorded specific instruction for meditative practice in human history. That factor of course lends a certain amount of prestige to the tradition but in reality it is the practice itself that is most important. How the philosophy behind the discipline is understood is more important than the historical aspects. For our purpose here it is important to know that the Sage-King Seti Ua (Seti I) commissioned the inscription which can still be seen in his tomb in Waset Egypt. However, it was part of an ancient tradition that was practiced by the priests and priestesses prior to the birth of Seti Ua.

     The 19th Dynasty (1290-1224 B.C.E.) of Kemetic history was founded by Rameses I. His family came from the noble houses from the city of Tanis, which had been the seat of power of the foreign Hyksos rulers. In ancient times the worship of the god Set was popular. In early times, when the Hyksos established their capital at Tanis, they adopted Set as their tutelary symbol, and thus, the god Set became associated with invaders.  During that time the god Set became associated with foreigners, evil, destruction and vice. However, in later times Rameses' son was named Seti I (man of Set). His son, Rameses II, who later become known as "the Great" continued on with Seti's spiritual projects of temple building and upholding the Kemetic traditions.

THIS WEB SITE IS DEDICATED TO THE DISSEMINATION AND PRACTICE OF THE GLORIOUS LIGHT MEDITATION.

This site also contains information about the Glorious Light Meditation Initiative, an effort to spread the knowledge about and practice of the GLM around the world. One of the important ways to achieve this goal is to conduct training seminars and retreats for those who want to learn the practice (Become a Practitioner of the Glorious Light Meditation System) and also for those who want to learn how to teach it (Become a teacher of the Glorious Light Meditation System).

THE NEED FOR THE G.L.M.

 As you know, the Glorious Light Meditation System is the oldest known fully documented system of meditation in human history. It was discovered by Sebai Dr. Muata Ashby and its history and philosophy as well as it's metaphysics were documented in the book The Glorious Light Meditation Technique of Ancient Egypt and in several video lectures and presentations. As you also know, we are entering into stressful times politically and economically. This also strains the spiritual life. The GLM is a useful tool for spiritual evolution but also for stress management and life empowerment. Both of these needs will rise in the society as time goes on so teaching the GLM will be a valuable service both to yourself and to the community and humanity. This initiative is a part of a comprehensive plan to effectively elevate the GLM practice to a higher level for it's teachers and practitioners.
