Osiris

"The god who is the most powerful of all the great gods, the supreme of the might, and of the supreme the greatest, and of the greatest the sovereign, Osiris. (Apuleius)"

"The divine Dionysius testifies that all created things are nothing but mirrors in which the rays of divine wisdom are reflected for us. From this the Egyptian sages created the image of Osiris who, entrusted to Isis, invisibly permeated the whole world. What else can this mean than that the power of the invisible God penetrates intimately into everything? (Athanasius Kircher)"

"In a myth such as that of Osiris we must therefore not only look for the reflection of astronomical events, but we must see in it the result of the profound clairvoyant knowledge of the ancient wise Egyptian priests. They introduced into the myth what they knew about the evolution of the Earth and of men. (Rudolf Steiner)"
