The Sphinx has the mighty body of a lion. On that body is the head of a man, his face turned toward the East. The Sphinx is male and its head represents the sun god. The Sphinx is the symbol of the royal annd priestly task of the Pharaohs and it is the embodiment of Ra, the sun god, who brings light to his people and leads them back to the divine-human origin. Pharaoh, by his shining example, had to awaken in his people those impulses that, until then, it had not been possible for them to follow consciously. In other words, he had to awaken the desire to return to the original state of existence in the divine order, and the urge to follow divine harmony and law in unselfish service within the divine plan.
