Egypt's temples are the temporary residence of the Neter and the location of its mysteries. "Mysteries" refers to the complete knowledge of the Neter's powers and manifestations, as well as how this knowledge is accessed by those connected to it. Among the reports of ancient travelers, we find references to the mysteries practiced in Egyptian temples. Although the activities were universally known, only those qualified to participate had access to knowledge and practice about them. A lengthy period of study at the Per Neter was required as well as a period of service dedicated to the temple only.
