| [[Aaru]] || The heavenly [[paradise]] where [[Osiris]] rules in ancient [[Egyptian mythology]]. Aaru, also known as the Field of Reeds, is the heavenly paradise in ancient Egyptian mythology¹². It is ruled over by Osiris, an Egyptian god¹². The location has been described as the ka (a part of the soul) of the Nile Delta¹³.
In this paradise, souls that have successfully passed through the judgement in the afterlife, known as the "Weighing of the Heart", can exist in peace and pleasure for eternity¹. The journey to Aaru is long and perilous, involving passing through a series of gates guarded by deities and evil demons¹. Once they arrive, they are rowed across the water to the shores of the Field of Reeds¹.
Aaru is usually placed in the east, where the Sun rises, and has been described as comprising boundless reed fields, like those of the Nile Delta¹. Consequently, this ideal hunting and farming ground enabled qualified souls to live for eternity¹. More precisely, Aaru was envisaged as a series of islands covered in fields of reeds¹. The part where Osiris later dwelt is sometimes known as the "field of offerings" (sḫt-ḥtpt)¹.

| [[Nu (mythology)|Nu]]n || The primordial waters from which the [[Benben]] arose at the beginning of the universe, also considered to be a god Nu.Nu, also known as Nun, is the personification of the primordial waters in ancient Egyptian religion. These waters existed at the time of creation and from which the creator sun god Ra arose¹. Nu is one of the eight deities of the Ogdoad, representing the ancient Egyptian primordial Chaos from which the primordial mound arose¹. He can be seen as the first of all the gods and the creator of reality and personification of the cosmos¹.
In this context, Benben is a term from ancient Egyptian mythology referring to the mound that arose from the primordial waters, Nu, and on which the creator god Atum settled. This is a common theme in many Egyptian cosmogonies which describe creation as the result of a divine mound or island rising from the sea at the beginning of time. This event was believed to have marked the beginning of the universe¹.
