Ta-djeser is the ancient Egyptian name of the land of light in the Duat . In Egyptian mythology , Ta-djeser was considered to be the allocated region for the deceased, which, after the positive judgment of the judgment of the dead, was reached by crossing the sacred underground lake of purification.

The reports in the Nutbuch show that the gods regenerated themselves as Chatiu in the realm of the dead, only to be reborn together with Re later .
