What is the Trial of the Soul from Ancient Egypt?

Answer 1

There were numerous steps that one had to go through. First, one had to adventure through two temples (Khusu and Thon), and then see Amun to be judged. The judging was based on common sense learned through life. If they passed the judging, they'd next have their heart weighed. If it was in good state, the steps would be passed. If not, their heart would be thrown into the Pit of Doom for Anubis to eat. Their soul would no longer exist, and they'd be dead. However if they passed these steps, one would have permission to go into the Kingdom of the Dead, which was supposedly a utopia.
