Ra was contained within an egg laid upon this mound by a celestial bird. Egyptian mythology In the original myth concerning the Ogdoad, the world arose from the waters as a mound of dirt, which was deified as Hathor. This new Orphic tradition states that Nyx later gave the sceptre to her son Uranos before it passed to Cronus and then to Zeus, who retained it. He was made the ruler of the deities and passed the sceptre to Nyx. He also created the method of creation by mingling. As she created nighttime, he created daytime. His older wife Nyx (Night) called him Protogenus. Phanes was believed to have been hatched from the World-Egg of Chronos (Time) and Ananke (Necessity). Many threads of earlier myths are apparent in the new tradition. The egg is often depicted with a serpent wound around it. Greek mythology The Orphic Egg in the Ancient Greek Orphic tradition is the cosmic egg from which hatched the primordial hermaphroditic deity Phanes/Protogonus (variously equated also with Zeus, Pan, Metis, Eros, Erikepaios and Bromius) who in turn created the other gods. The Rig Veda has a similar coded description of the division of the universe in its early stages.
The Upanishads elaborate that the Hiranyagarbha floated around in emptiness for a while, and then broke into two halves which formed Dyaus (Heaven) and Prithvi (Earth). The Rig Veda (RV 10.121) uses a similar name for the source of the universe: Hiranyagarbha (हिरण्यगर्भ) which literally means “golden fetus” or “golden womb”. Certain Puranas such as the Brahmanda Purana speak of this in detail. The Sanskrit term for it is Brahmanda (ब्रह्माण्ड) which is derived from two words- ‘Brahm’ (ब्रह्म) means ‘cosmos’ or ‘expanding’ and ‘anda’ (अण्ड) means ‘egg’. One of the earliest ideas of “egg-shaped cosmos” comes from some of the Sanskrit scriptures. Vedic mythology This is one of many material universes, Brahmandas, which expand from Mahavishnu when He breathes. Typically, the world egg is a beginning of some sort, and the universe or some primordial being comes into existence by “hatching” from the egg, sometimes lain on the primordial waters of the Earth. Source: ARAS From Wikipedia: World Egg The world egg, cosmic egg or mundane egg is a mythological motif found in the creation myths of many cultures and civilizations. With this, the creation of the manifest universe begins. Visnu then enters the cosmic egg and, after a period of quiescence, the creator of the god Brahma is born from his navel.
