the Ka |
Many articles that mention the Ka present it as an amorphous soul-thing. But it doesn’t really do anything for us, does it? As it’s usually presented, the Ba is what’s really “you”- your memories, your identity. So who needs a Ka, anyway?
Hail To You, My Living Ka: Ka Theology 101 is an article on the Ka by Darkhawk of the Cauldron. Check it out, if you haven’t read it already.
In computer terms, I get the sense that your Ka is your operating system. Your Ba is the info that’s stored on the hard drive. Of course, there are several other parts to a person besides the Ka and Ba, and we’ll probably see more on those later.
