Principles of Ma'at Backpack

Ma'at is the ancient Egyptian goddess of truth, justice, balance, and cosmic order, representing harmony in both the physical and spiritual realms. The 7 Laws of Ma'at reflect foundational virtues such as truth, balance, order, harmony, justice, morality, and reciprocity, which were believed to maintain universal equilibrium. The 42 Guiding Principles, also known as the "Negative Confessions," are a series of declarations of innocence that align with these laws, stating what a person has not done (e.g., "I have not stolen" or "I have not lied"). Together, the laws and principles were essential in the judgment of souls in the afterlife, where adherence to Ma'at determined whether a person would enter the eternal afterlife. • Made from 100% polyester • Fabric weight: 9 oz./yd.² (305 g/m²) • Dimensions: 16.1″ (41 cm) in height, 12.2″ (31 cm) in width, and 5.5″ (14 cm) in diameter • Capacity: 5.3 gallons (20 l) • Max weight: 44 lbs (20 kg) • Water-resistant material • Large inside pocket
