[Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Through the course of history, uh, there have been, um, intentional, uh, moves to keep the knowledge of, uh, Kemet away from, uh, people, away from the people, definitely from Black people, and from the world at large. Being that a lot of the, uh, modern-day world religions are, uh, highly based upon Kemet, or ancient Egyptian spiritual knowledge, that being the fact, it was necessary, I would say, to hide, to hide that information in order to give us a pure dose of indoctrination, per se, without us being able to see its ancient origins.

[Music] Nine. Okay. Natura means powers or forces of God. Okay. So, and I'm gonna just draw a diagram of what I'm just passed around to you, what's going around. There are three types of, three levels, three types of persons, and three levels of being, so to speak. Okay. Um, okay. So you have the Sahu, the Ebb, and the Ba. These are different levels of development, okay, with the, um, in the system. Okay. The main thing to understand about, uh, the Kemet system is that it's based on the, uh, based on the principle that man is essentially divine. This is, this is the root of the system, the belief in man's divinity. Okay. All right. So unlike other religious systems where man is seen as essentially sinful, essentially it's flesh, all this kind of thing, in the Kemet philosophy, man is essentially divine. So the most important part, the most important part of the whole tree is Amen, which is like the root. Okay. We hear people ending prayers, "Amen, amen." Okay. So what Amen represents is formless matter and inactive energy. Um, it's a formless state, no forms, no things. It's supposed to, uh, represent the original state from which all things come from and return to. So, if you will, okay, Amen is understood to be the highest level of the spirit, okay, where there are no forms, you have no condition, there's no limitations. The direct opposite is our physical side, where all the conditionings, limitations, and all those things manifest. But the identity here in this system is with the true self that resides here at sphere one.

How I like to explain it is just like the process of looking at creation and speculating about, hmm, you know, all these things weren't always here, you know, um, there had to be a point where they started, you know, I mean, there had to be, you know, look at the universe and all the structure of the planets, seasons, and all these things, you figure there has to be an intelligence that was responsible for manifesting these things. Okay. So our ancestors figured that consciousness therefore has to be before energy and matter because in order for energy and matter to take such organized, scientific, mathematical structure, it requires an intelligence beforehand to set that in place. Okay. All right. Consciousness is not composed of energy nor matter. This is the part that is always, that's challenging to the Western, Western system to grasp. Um, they have a hard time dealing with the fact that intelligence pre-exists energy and matter. You see, I'm saying. All right. So, um, consciousness. So since consciousness is not composed of energy nor matter, it cannot be divided. All right. Therefore, the consciousness that is within you, consciousness that's within me, okay, it's the same consciousness that existed before the creation of the world. Okay. According to the Kemet system, there is one self living in the world. There is one consciousness. Since it cannot be divided, there's only one consciousness living in the world, and we all are, you know, with our shell and so forth, we get the perspective that we are the thing that we are living in because, but that's cultural conditionings. Okay. According to the Kemet system, uh, the journey in life is to realize your divine nature. Okay. Um, and the Tree of Life explains how.

Okay. So in terms of, uh, the gradual progression, uh, that one goes through in a, in a year timeline, following the cycles of the sun and the moon and the, uh, lunar cycles, and you know, the initiation system of Kemet had two aspects basically: the consciousness will aspect and developing of the identity with the divine self, and the raw initiation system, which dealt with the lunar aspects or the, uh, spirit energy matter aspect of being, which is opposite from the consciousness will aspect of being. So basically, the self and the not-self, the part that is, uh, you eternally, and the part that is your vehicle temporarily. These were the two, uh, uh, focuses, uh, of the Kemet, uh, spiritual system. One is all this is, uh, omniscience. This is omnipotence. Okay. Now, these are all aspects of the divine, you know, I'm saying, that that the divine shares with man. Man in the Kemet system is seen as a vehicle through which the divine can come into his creation. You see, I'm saying. Um, uh, the most, the vehicle, uh, able to express the highest level of expression on the earth is, are, you know, human beings, right? So we are the channel through which the divine can come into the world, potentially. Okay. It's not just gonna happen, you know, potentially. Okay. All right. So, um, let's see here. Jose, you'll see it there, he's passing around to Hootie, Sec, Hurt, Amen. Okay. All right. This is the highest level of spiritual development possible to a person, to perceive himself as one with all, you know, I mean, to be able to attain the peace to face all the challenges in life correctly and gain the spiritual power by facing the challenges of life with the peace necessary. Um, this is the, this is, uh, later on in human evolution. Okay. Uh, maybe we'll catch up with where they were in the past sometime. Okay. All right. But, um, this level is where we are more familiar with. We're gonna get there real soon. We're much more familiar with what's going on right here. All right. Um, the Ebb level, you have Ma'at here, which represents law and order. You'll see that on the, uh, transparency as a woman with the feather, uh, in her, in her head, representing the feather of truth. Um, the feather in Kemet spirituality was used as a symbol, uh, to measure the weight of the heart. You know, if one was living free from the control of the animal spirit, rage, doubt, fear, lust, anger, greed, you know, if one was living free from these animal instincts, you know, I mean, living above those things, then one, then one is living according to divine law. Either it's one or the other. You either live, do things because you like it, or you do things because you have a reason why, purpose why you do those things. You know, I mean, it's one of two things: you're moving on reasoning, or you're moving on just sensuality and impulse. And nothing, the dark principle, or I want to say dar, let's say blind principle. Okay. All right. So Ma'at, Heru. Okay. These are looked at as like your governing forces. Heru, okay, the purpose of this level of the spirit is to govern over the lower level of the spirit. Notice this pyramid is pointed up like this because it's based upon, it's based upon Amen. Okay. All these, this, these faculties here of the spirit reside in Amen, just like these faculties reside in, you know, your earthly centers. Okay. So in between heaven and earth, okay, you have your governing faculties. Here's where the whole thing comes of being in the world but not of it. The purpose of your Heru, okay, or your, uh, uh, will, so to speak, is to govern over the imagination, the intellect, and the, uh, and the emotional faculty, or the memory and trances and things of that nature. That's your inner manager. Okay. All right. Uh, it is only manifested if you have vitality. You know, you can't manifest fire, you know, unless you have fire.

The system here that you're seeing, Neter, is the name given to the supreme being. Neteru represents the powers of Neter, the energies that come, that are working in concert. It's like a, uh, interdependent system, you know, that that's manifest. The energies extend from the divine, and so they're acknowledged. You know, kind of like if you go to the gym and work out, you know, you're not worshiping your body, you know, but you're, there's a part of you that you have to keep fit, you know, what I'm saying? So the other parts of you work well. It's the same way, you know, you have your intellect, these are all different faculties of your mind, you know, intellect, imagination, uh, memory, as well as transability, your will, your analytical faculties, your, you know, these are all different energies, um, that not only have intellectual correspondences, they have planetary correspondences. And Ma'at correlating to Jupiter, Heru correlating to Mars, Heru correlating to the Sun, Seven correlating to Mercury, Offset correlating to the Moon, Geb correlating to the Earth. Okay. So these things are not working separately. They're all part of one body, and so that's how God manifests in that way. So the one God is worshipping knowledge, all the various principles, and the way that, you know, without guilt, like the whole guilt thing that's split over, like you're worshiping something outside of yourself, and that whole rigmarole. Truth matter is that. All right. So, you know, if people are unable to attain the higher levels of consciousness or awareness, it's because the system has programmed them to where they're stuck in lower levels of consciousness. So, you know, it's, it's their, their science is false because the universe has, uh, what I call, uh, safety locks. You know, like your car has a child safety lock. You cannot access spiritual power and be corrupt. The universe will not give you power if you are corrupt. You cannot yield, and I'm not talking about spiritual power in terms of like, uh, walking on water or that kind of thing. Spiritual power when it comes to the Kemet [Music] spirituality, spiritual power means that you are able to, uh, uh, pursue undertakings in life free of opposition. That means that, you know, the universe supports your movements, you know, what I mean? They're free of off. That is spiritual power, not, oh, I can walk through a wall and, you know, that's no, no, no, you know, I mean, because the greatest power you can have is to have the same force that moves the planets and off and so forth moving your life, you know, the same power that that digests your food and so forth and so on, that intelligence that transcends your conscious mind, you know, I mean, that's the greatest power, and only way you can be in line with that is to be in line with the laws that govern your being and so forth and so on.

So, you know, Zulu people are like the Bantu, okay, people. Okay. Um, Zulu, in Zulu, the term for God is Muntu. Okay. And I'm gonna show you how this just doesn't just relate with Kemet philosophy. This is like all through various cultures. Okay. The term for God is Muntu. Okay. And Zulu, the term for man, it's also the same term. So it's, you know, these, these things extend from Kemet all the way down to South Africa, all the way to, you know, uh, South America, you know, it's these sciences. It's a universal. It's a beautiful thing about it, you know, what I'm saying? Um, that's the beautiful thing about it.
