The prepared the dead body for after life. There also added valuables because they belived that the dead is on a journey to another world.
The things in the jars were their organs. They took them out when they died, because they were the things that decomposed the fastest. The Egyptians knew they would need them in the afterlife.
The Egyptians were worried that the body would decay really fast, so they started to mummify/preserve the dead. The Egyptians also strongly believed in the afterlife, so they buried their dead with things they believed they might need in the afterlife.

First of all, it wasn't an obsession. They simply believed in the afterlife. They did their best to preserve the bodies, and put in the casket things needed for the afterlife.
Because ancient egyptians believed that the afterworld was better than life on earth, so they provided the dead person with their possessions and favorite food
They believed that the afterlife would bring them true happiness by getting riches and power. That is why when they were first buried the did not have many things with them but in their afterlife they have things such as gold and jewelry. Although the more lesser cultured and financially inept Egyptians were not buried with riches the more wealthy Egyptians were entombed with slaves, spices, foods, gold, gems, and even there animals.
Because they believed that there was a life after death and they provided the death with things that could be useful in the afterlife.
Bread, wine, plates, cups, gold, a crown, his throne, jewelry, jewels, clothes. Egyptians believe in afterlife.
They did so because the Egyptians believed that you go to an Afterlife when you die, afterlife was like this life, and you would need your stuff to go with you. They buried items with the mummies, too. Things like gold, jewelry, even furniture! You would be able to have all that in the afterlife!
The Egyptians believed that they would come back in the afterlife and they would need all of that stuff to continue to live as a spirit, which is why they were buried with all of their organs and why their bodies were preserved, so they never got destroyed and would live forever.

no they believed when you die, you go to a place where you relive all of your favorite things in life, like sailing,playing,sex etc.
