It also added by saying that the trade situation had changed drastically, with buyers not willing to move out of their offices to source their requirements. TGMA was concerned by the fact that more than half of the members were still working with an outdated method of running their production units and these were the ones who would be the first to be affected by the recessionary trends prevailing across the key markets across the globe. It shall neither become a ruin, nor be destroyed on this earth.“Take aggressive steps to survive through the crisis”, was the advice tendered by the President of the 1,000 member strong Thai Garment Manufacturers Association (TGMA), Mr Dej Pathanasethpong and warned by saying that half of the garment manufacturers stand to be wiped out. My eyebrows shall not be shaved away, and no evil defect shall assail me. My head shall not be separated from my neck. I shall have my being, I shall have by being I shall live, I shall live I shall flourish, I shall flourish, I shall flourish, I shall wake up in peace, I shall not putrefy, my intestines shall not perish, I shall not suffer injury. I shall not decay, I shall not rot, I shall not putrefy, I shall not turn into worms, and I shall not see corruption before the eye of the god Shu. I am the god Khepera, and my members shall have being everlastingly. Thou didst not decay, thou didst not become worms, thou didst not wither, thou didst not rot, thou didst not putrefy, thou didst not turn into worms. Homage to thee, O my divine father Osiris, thou livest with thy members. Give me not over to his fingers, let him not overcome me, for I am under thy command, O Lord of the Gods. Let me live, and perform his order I will do what is commanded by him. Give thou me not over to the Slaughterer in this execution-chamber, who killeth the members, and maketh them rot, being invisible, and who destroyeth the bodies of the dead, and liveth by carnage. Let not the decay caused by any reptile make an end, and let not come against me in their various forms. Let on their bellies they recognize me, and behold, the fear of me shall terrify them and thus also let it be with every being that hath died, whether it be animal, or bird, or fish, or worm, or reptile. Thus man becometh a brother unto the decay which cometh upon him, and he turneth into a myriad of worms, and he becometh nothing but worms, and an end is made of him, and perisheth in the sight of the god of day (Shu), even as do every god, and every goddess, and every bird, and every fish, and every creeping worm, and every reptile, and every beast, and every thing whatsoever. I pray thee, let me not fall into rottenness, as thou lettest every god, and every goddess, and every animal, and every reptile, see corruption, when the soul hath gone out of them, after their death.Īnd when the soul hath departed, a man seeth corruption, and the bones of his body crumble away and become stinking things, and the members decay one after the other, the bones crumble into a helpless mass, and the flesh turneth into foetid liquid. Let not my body become worms, but deliver thou me as thou didst deliver thyself. I have never done that which thou hatest, nay, I have acclaimed thee among those who love thy KA. Grant thou that I may enter into the land of everlastingness, according to that which was done for thee, along with thy father Tem, whose body never saw corruption, and who himself never saw corruption. Stablish me, stablish me, and fashion me strongly, O Lord of the funeral chest. Come then, strengthen my breath, O Lord of the winds, who dost magnify these divine beings who are like unto thyself. Do thou embalm these my members, for I would not perish and come to an end even like unto my divine father Khepera, the divine type of him that never saw corruption. The Osiris Nu saith:- Homage to thee, O my divine father Osiris! I come to embalm thee.
