Get to know the hall of two truths
The hall of two truths, is where Anubis weighs the heart of the deceased. The heart is being weighed against Maats feather. Maat is the goddess of truth and justice. If the heart is heavier than her feather, that means the heart is full of sin, and the dead person who the heart belongs to, is not aloud to go into the kingdom of Osiris. Aka, heaven. When the heart is heavy, Amut, a goddess who is part lion, crocodile and hippo, eats the heart, and the person no longer exists. But if the heart is as "light as a feather" that means you can goto heaven, Amut gets no dinner, and you were a good person in life.
