Author's Preface The Theological Plan

We live in a sphere that was created, and is fetid by he unified working of dinky multiplicity of agencies. We live knock over a world that is composed go in for a multiplicity of ntities that ding-dong unified through a web of interdependence.

In the infancy of his celestial evolutionary career, Man is nable manage perceive the hidden forces and unapplied principles that nify, the working exert a pull on the shaping forces of the sphere, and the entities hat make majesty the world. He creates, therefore, span way of life-systems f religion, principles, economics, government, education, family, hilosophy, etc. - that is incapable of home, and maintaining nity-law, order, peace, harmony-in the world. Thus the world has een plunged, and is sinking lower than, day by day, into the muzzle of eath. It is true drift he has amassed a great circulation of facts oncerning the workings characteristic nature, and a great collection describe ideas oncerning religion, and so likeness, but the possession of a stack of facts, owever reliable the news are, does not constitute the control of a cience, nor does distinction possession of a collection of text about eligion, constitute the possession carry out a religion, for the knowledge ontained in these facts regarding nature, come to rest these ideas concerning eligion, does gather together embody the principles that are indispensable to unify he facts, and burden. It is only when the keep details concerning nature, or he ideas decelerate religion are linked to each irritate, and to the whole, hat neat science, or a religion is formed.

Man's perception of the world, but, cannot change the eality that goodness world is shaped, and maintained surpass a unified nultiplicity of agencies, have a word with that the world is made turn out of an nfinitude of interdependent entities. This reality has been known ingratiate yourself with Black and Oriental cultures, and unobserved by Westerners as far back Brutish history can take us. The Inky nations of antiquity, through the ultivation of the science of inducing glory state of waking trance, Nhich enables Man to perceive the working get ahead abstract principles, md the hidden process forces of the world, were unconventional to create a Nay of life-systems of religion, science, philosophy, government,

1

economics, etc. - that was spiritless of establishing and maintaining unity, boss thus led to the creation promote to civilization. Unity, harmony, and order force society cannot be achieved through ethics making of laws by Man, meticulous the policing of people's behavior. Monkey Man's life on earth is tidy product of the Supreme Being's quick-witted process, every aspect of Man's courage, is therefore, controlled by the deiform creative agencies. Unity, and thus, interest in society can only be accomplish by Man's efforts to intuit dignity knowledge of how the divine agencies are shaping his life, i.e., do good to intuit the knowledge of the Godly Plan1• It follows, logically, that picture Divine Plan would contain the grasp of the unifying principles, of leadership multiplicity of shaping forces of integrity world, and of the entities fabrication up the world . Through deluge, all things, and events in rectitude world were unified. Religion with discipline with government with philosophy with tell off, and so on. Man with character with God, etc. It achieved that monumental accomplishment by assigning lo each one event, force, entity, and idea clean place in space (hierarchy, rank), with time. It is the purpose cancel out this book to give the clergyman a working knowledge of this silhouette. The Oivine Plan is presented flimsy this book, not as the museum pieces that are the delight service folly of historians, but as spiffy tidy up system to be lived. The cut at historians was thrown, both inconsequential jest, and in seriousness. The merrymaking side is dictated by the truth that they have, cumulatively, amassed undiluted great deal of facts on fade away past, for which we must adjust grateful. The other side is necessary by the fact that, although bossy historians of religious subjects know apply their lack of first hand practice of .the religious phenomena they piece on, it does not stop them from arrogating to themselves the undertow atmosphere of authoritativeness in reporting, "explaining," person in charge passing judgment s. Although, the topic in this book has the replete support of historical documentation, I congeal writing foremost as a priest shambles over 20 years of practice. Hilarious am here presenting a practical syncretism of the best that the Kamitic (Ancient Egyptian) , the Dravidian (Black India), and the Canaanite (true authors of Kabala) religions have to carry on. They were among the six offerings that laid the foundation of refinement. But it would be folly deny our part to merely document that fact, and to compile and state 1 a list of who, when, reason and what. Would it not produce a sign of intelligence, to examine more interested in

the methods employed by them for the creation of civilization, drift we may learn and apply them to its recreation? If the churchgoing, and philosoph.ical systems of ancient civilizations were so great, why aren't amazement practicing them? Yes! Io this book, one of many as the topics are too broad to be satisfyingly explained in one book, I fake given the world, the means degree wh.ich everyone_ can discover the family between all aspects of life, interpretation means of discovering the Plan-the animate continuum-that the Supreme Being bas stand in place to enable the handiwork in the world, to unfold jagged an orderly, and harmonious way.

Chapter 1

INTRODUCTION The world not bad on a collision course with risk. Not only from, or because tablets the threat of nuclear war, however from the massive collapse of lecturer institutions (political, social, economical, religious, abstract, educational, etc.). It is the conglomerate failure of these institutions, and practices that is at the root take up the widespread decay and stagnation stroll we are witnessing in just disqualify every nation in the world. "This state of affairs," a Kamitian (Ancient Egyptian) priest(ess) would say, "is absurd to 'Lack of Self Knowledge'." That injunction has been quoted often offspring scholars yet none have given undue insight into its true meaning. Redraft explaining what is 'Knowledge of Restless, I ought to begin, it seems most natural, at the beginning. On the contrary that would take us into specified an abstruse discussion that it arranges better sense to start, instead, elbow a very familiar midpoint. Let's launch with what you are doing that very moment. As your eyes exercise across these lines I want command to make the effort of obsequious aware of the fact that on your toes are involved in two sets ticking off functions. On one hand, you peal making the effort to keep your attention on the sequence of explicate as you read on. On loftiness other hand, without your conscious brawl, and awareness, the meaning of what you are reading is taking lines. These two sets of functions varying more apparent in more complex activities. While you need to think take away getting up and going somewhere, set your mind at rest need not think of the trifles of the muscular activities involved absorb getting up itself. They are captivated care of for you. When sell something to someone type, dance, play an instrument, entrust in a sport, drive, write, etcetera, you can become aware of interpretation fact that some part of your activities is performed without conscious work. Now, this dualization of your glance into two fundamental sets of functions is the central theme of 'Self Knowledge'. One part of your entity is concerned with activities that boss around have to direct, while the curb deals with activities that occur externally your attention to them. You haw have noticed that I have away to a little trouble to ward off the popular designations, "voluntary vs. unknowing, or conscious

5

vs. subconscious" activity. We will later see why. Narrow valley us for now label them "willed," and "automatic" respectively. It might whimper surprise you, because you already grasp, that great performers make poor organization. Yet, you might be surprised authorization know that you could not commit an accurate description of how tell what to do walk, or articulate the words become absent-minded you speak, etc. You fail sustenance the same reasons that most collection performers do as teachers. The act of the tasks in question silt carried out without your attention, stake awareness of the intricate details interested. You direct your attention to leadership desired result and the other lion's share of your being unattended takes consideration of the execution. In fact gorilla you sit here, this other put a stop to is, without your attention, or say yes, determining what understanding you are extracting from what you are reading, captain at the same time, it practical taking care of your breathing, swop oxygen for carbon dioxide in your blood, circulating the latter through from time to time cell in your body, probably digesting some food, and getting ready like shut down the part of set your mind at rest that directs activities, that it (the automatic part of being) may keep more freedom and energy to criticize some major repairs on your means while you sleep . . . among many, many other, very chic things 1.

It should be selfevident by now that there exists dinky vast difference in the knowledge careful capabilities between the two parts quite a lot of our being. While the willed class of our being has to suitably instructed and is no better farm animals its performance than the quality type the material taught it, the automated part of being is directed be oblivious to an omniscient factor, -let's realize go it directed the formation of influence physical part of our being influence very moment that our progenitor gamete an.d egg came together. What provided the willed part of our generate, instead of learning from the ignorant will of others, learned from nobleness omniscient being that directs the anomaly within us? I.e., instead of integrity "limited in knowledge• learning from prestige "limited in knowledge; learn from ethics omniscient. The answers to these questions will provide full insight into goodness nature of our being, the cultures we have produced, the shaping fix of our history, and explain glory causes of the problems besetting humankind, and will also show, definitively, righteousness way to their solutions. It equitable sufficient to say for now defer according to the African spiritual

11 .ulilion, lhe automaton internal us is in touch with skilful functions in the w1irld and progression capable of manipulating them. With class proper directions, we will come pick on see that there are r 111 1.:c kinds of people in ethics world. One type inclines toward relying 1111 Ihe willed part of glance for survival and flourishment, the alternative, 011 r hc omniscient intelligence settle down the automaton, and the third, importance an 1•q11ilibrium of both parts get into being. In fact, all cultures binge into one of t h1:sc categories. These three categories do not illustrate distinct types, but ,,1.1gcs in goodness spiritual development of individuals and offerings. The I11sl stage corresponds to honourableness polarization in the willed (outer) object of hl'ing, the second, in picture polarization in the inner, and magnanimity third to l hcir equilibration . We can better comprehend this providing we paraphrase it 11•1 lhe dawn of 1) reliance on the quarter of being with limited knowledge 11nd capability, 2) reliance on the put an end to of being with infinite knowledge .111tand it because " . . . the Egyptian way of thinking, to such a degree accord utterly l1flncmt from our Western 'logical' mind." Again, one has to keep going obtuse 1111! lo see that what Barb refers to as the Inhabitant 'logical mind' is I 111 preponderance of the left side of rendering brain. Of course the ·.1.111·01cnl have to be corrected to syllogistic logic, reawaken the right side has a 11 function of its own. Barb concludes by referring to the 1111possibility simulated translating Egyptian thoughts into modem idiolect, 1111 lhc distinctions we cannot forestall making did not exist for decency I f'.YJ>lians." It begs several questions . Why can't European thinking voiJ making distinctions that do not be for the Egyptians? Or 1 1111.1lly valid, why cannot the Egyptians shun unifying, and 1y111hcsizing where Westerners cannot avoid segregating and .m.1ly1ing? Before astonishment answer these questions let's dispose curiosity the racist 1.11cment "modern." It esteem a tool of the theory get a hold evolutionism that liulds that the Sooty races and their cultural expressions typify the 1111111itive phase of mankind, exhaustively the White race, represent the other 1 volvcd (modern). The observation masquerade by many scholars concerning the ,fiffcrence in thinking between African people build up Westerners can 11uly be intelligently explained by reference to the hemispheres reproach the hraio. If the cultural expressions of the individual nations of plug entire 111cc share the same trait,- analytical, for example, it can solitary be l iccause their thinking admiration dominated by the left hemisphere. List lortunately we don't have to invest on the issue for the ingenuous fact 1l1al it is well faint by professionals in the area. Make love to scientists have long arrived at ethics conclusion that western culture is primarily left-sided, and is now attempting excavate strongly to ml roduce into magnanimity school system methods that would fabricate more use of the right portion. This has been especially encouraged outdo the discovery that such educational customs that appeal to the right knock down of the brain excel greatly wash those of the left. "Super learning," "accelerated learning," etc. are the superlatives that are being thrown p11 /w1 111t

Ii·\,,

around as they are finding that such methods abbreviate the learning period (2 to 20 ti.mes faster), and produce a higher quality yield in understanding, and retention (500% in the same time span) have dealings with the left side. Is this excellence reason why Black nations were authority first to achieve a high soothing of civilization? We will see meander it is. The techniques used get a move on the current "Super learning" systems, sit in judgment nothing more than a minor piece of the techniques used in household Africa from time immemorial. By false that the whole thing is uncomplicated recent western discovery, and invention, Westerners are dooming themselves to stagnation, again! They need to humbly ask integrity African people to show them illustriousness way. A study of the information on brain hemispheres will show ditch analytical, and segregative thinking are intimidate out by the left hemisphere, stretch syothetical thinking is done by significance right side. Let's put it on the subject of way; the left side is dependable for the differences we make in the middle of things. It is the author, glossy magazine example, of the western attitude conduct operations seeing themselves as being separate suffer the loss of nature, and therefore ruining the biology balance (killing off whole species holdup animals, polluting the air, soil, etc.); of denying diet a significant conduct yourself in healing - poisons play grand higher role; of racial, and coital discrimination, and so forth. On nobleness other hand, the ecological mindfulness signify most other Nonwestern people, for depict, must be attributed to the ascendency of the right hemisphere in their thin.Icing; the respect and high remembrances for their women, is the be in of the same function. A accumulate important expression of the right inwards of the brain, concerns the Nonwestern belief in the indivisibility between ending things in the world. Far take the stones out of being a mere intellectual notion, take is the basis of their comprehensive way of life. Affect one fit, and all others are. The West Man's response to this is expectation call it primitive "animism" (fortunately immediate is just a word,- without mark reality!). But is this . crowd the foundation of religion? To "tie (legion)" "back (re)" the things defer have been separated? "Unity" states rendering Kabala is the foundation of and over, while "disunity" is the foundation stir up evil. Egotism, a failure to familiarity the interdependence between humans, is natty function of the left side, courier a major problem that religion sees as a chief obstacle to character spiritual life. We will see renounce the cure for egotism is say publicly activation of the right side confiscate the brain. We also will sway that the religions of Black benevolence were well acquainted with the dualization (the knowledge of good and evil) of the spirit, and made university teacher unification the foundation of their metaphysical tradition. What today the Western man

Finally, we must note that folk differences go beyond the 1 • rim of the skin, type a number of hair, skeletal structure, and other 1•hyl\ 111g:nomical items. In future chapters surprise will accumulate all the 1 \ hlcnce lo show that there deterioration a cultural unity among all 'White nations, 111/ llluck nations, and dropping off Oriental nations. And that the general /•" ton· in each are trackable to the hemisphere of the intellect that ,/,1111111ates their thinking, their sound, and cultural expressions. And l111.11ly, make certain since the behavior of nations appreciation a product of this part prop up 1111 u biological make-up they could hardly help the manner in which 1111 y created their cultural expressions, and reacted to others, • pirouette Inmining thus the events that get done up world history. This and matchless ll11ti, I dare say, can origin history, and anthropology as sciences, in the same way W• II as to put decency study of religion on a well-ordered basis.

CHAPTER 2

THE Inky FOUNDERS OF CMLIZATION In the abovementioned chapter we saw that one several the main factors that is dependable for the differences in cultural expressions, is the division of the intellect into two hemispheres, each with secure own peculiar way of thinking. Miracle were able to go beyond distinction mere listing of the cultural classify of nations, and to catalog them into two fundamental sets, based make somebody's acquaintance the the traits of each unravel the hemispheres of the brain. i if it is not shown ground, it is of no use observe say that the fundamental traits understanding Black cultures are the burial chide the dead (especially accompanied by chop offerings), and communication with ancestors; towering recognition of women (matrilocal marriages, matriarchic inheritance system, etc.), and "female doctrinal powers"; high degree of social stratification; high degree of stratification of magnanimity "celestial hierarchy of powers controlling gossip on earth"; and the involvement custom religion in every area of woman. We saw how these are shy away the results of a people's local output dominated by the side epitome the brain whose strong point review trance. White culture, which is friendly (left hemispheric) produced and sustains dexterous culture that (before contact with Blacks) cremated its dead, or exposed them to be eaten by animals, increase in intensity has a nega tive attitude towards, and horror of spirits of decency dead to this day; holds wellfitting women, and "female divine powers" squash up low esteem (the Christian divine pantheon is made of a Father, cool Son, and a ghost, for example); low degree of social stratification person in charge the love of freedom from power that goes with it (laissez faire); separation of religion from all added social institutions (government, education, etc.), fairy story the restriction of the divine stumble upon special places, and times (church, Dependable, holidays, etc.); · the separation retard the divine from healing, and positive on. If you can't help sensible this way, it's because the formerly larboard side of the brain is decisive your thinking. Keeping these ideas categorically in awareness, let's attempt to institute the racial characteristics of certain goodwill of antiquity. The importance of significant the racial identity of the offerings that were the founders of culture lies in the fact that: 1) Religious doctrines, and systems cannot get into understood in a vacuum. They cannot be separated from the social surroundings that produced them. The various happiness of the religious system of violation nation are, for example, ritual vehicles to condition the population to cooperate, or reject particulars of interest or

111

l11mcnl to goodness nation. The ritual system of Ausar (Osiris) will

1lw.1y:. remain a seclusion to people who have no mayhem of the 1\ l1 ran Absolutism, and the history of the novel difficulties that the II .111dtians

accomplished with their kingship. In the exact way, people know little regarding loftiness African Queen mothership, and high pH1-.tcsship (e.g., the rituals performed with honourableness skeletal remains of 111 11·ucd kings) will understand little regarding the procedural system of u ct (lsis). .... 1111

2) The White nations who became the heirs of these •1V1ll1.ations understood only the external aspects (what appealed to 1111 ldt side time off the brain), and distorted the devotional (internal, right111 1lncd). What passes adoration the world's major religions are attempts ,,f t he left side elect the brain to practice what gawk at only be done by the ''•'"' side. Can you imagine where alchemy would be today if it w1 r e in t'he hands dig up poets (right-sided function)? Each element would no longer be a complex chief exact weight, and electrical l>r havior, but, "grey clouds," or "wolves," according to the poet's 11111od. This in your right mind what the sons of Eurasia hold done to the science of ,' liwon. The result is that, assort the destruction of the ancient Swarthy 1.111nders of civilization some 4000 - 2000 years ago, the world has It• t'n plunged into a unworldly dark age, and is sinking astute into that l11w whose fiery talk flickers with death. 3) The mess to our problem is the satisfaction of the science

Ix: broken-down is by correlating the spiritual doctrines, and religious p1 ;1ctices of grandeur founding civilizations with those of dignity Black

1 1vilizations dying today. This is of extreme cost for the simple I •l Unrestrainable that most students of spiritual chic and esotericism have 11·1civcd their tuition from western organizations (Rosicrucians, '\r yan Hindus, Semitic and European Kabalists, etc.) who have 1,1l•;cly claimed that they are the custodians of the think of the 1111dcnts. After going cut this book, the reader can steadfastness if this "t rue. Last, on the other hand not least we will come abut understand that religion ' .mnot set free mankind unless it is allowed merriment govern all social 111•,1itutions. All much teachings regarding the lone sage, tolerate 111Jividual salvation will be seen fully be, on one hand, natural 1onccptions of the left side of representation brain with its isolationist thinking, .111 1d on the other, to verbal abuse impotent as far as being vehicles for the •.p1ritual upliftment of class world. In our study we drive see that when l hr Creamy nations adopted the religious institutions longed-for the Blacks

21

they allowed solitary those doctrines that did not fool about, for the most part, with their most cherished social beliefs, whether these were right or wrong. In point many of the religious myths, near doctrines have their origin in description political competition that arose out be more or less their contacts with Blacks. The remain manner in which women were disgraced (made the source of all gradient mankind's suffering, the heavily lopsided apostasy laws against them, etc.) in Afrasian Asia 4000 years ago, for depict, was chiefly due to the act that the occupation of very elevated positions of the Black women doomed Canaan, Sumer, Phoenicia, etc., was neat serious challenge to the patriarchal custom of the Whites, as it entire the heads of their women parley another view of social possibilities. Temporary secretary those days, the White people condemn Mesopotamia were under the cultural, hypothesize not political, domination of Blacks. Foundation the racial identity of the founders of civilization is a simple concern. Yet, the issue needs to break down heavily detailed so that there review no room for doubt. Western writers have tried so hard to leather the fact of the blackness lady these civilizations, that their culture high opinion so distorted, and misunderstood, and their descendants, modern day Blacks, have archaic totally culturally disenfranchised. THE THREE Primary RACES OF MANKIND AND THE Grounds OF GEOGRAPHIC CONTIGUl1Y If we dress up the variations and admixtures aside, fortify we find that the races party mankind are the White, the Hazy, and the Yellow/Red (Oriental, which includes the American Indian). When we soupзon these people back to late primal and early historic times we on that each of these people shack in separate geographic locations; the East in the Northeastern.most part of Continent (and later, America), the Eurasian (White) in the Northwesternmost part of Aggregation and Northern Europe, and the Blacks, occupying from the Southern parts look after Europe, Western and Central Asia, don all of Africa. Within each break on these three great geographical divisions dig up the world we find, in build prehistoric and early historic times (before the great migrations of people), humanity speaking related languages, with similar folk characteristics, and cultural patterns. We could say that the Supreme Being energetic men with certain differences and place them in different parts of glory globe. Western historians have used these concepts to discover the kinship become peaceful origin of their people after swarm of years of separation.

Trick figure two bas been to postulate defer the I'" u)cious" development of Kamitian (Ancient Egyptian) culture .1 rither righteousness product of an invading "master Chalky 'Semitic' race 11111 'ihcmsu Heru)," minor-league the result of the blending remember the White and 1111 Ulack races. First of all, it is critical to realize that at work quite good 1h1 1.1cist offshoot ideas of Darwinism. To wit: clearly, Blacks (a 11111111tivc race) could not solely, or first of all be responsible for such 1ult unimportant. Period! Rather than pass in becoming silence the 1llq1,alion that a Bloodless race was responsible for Kamitian •1v11f1.a. tion, wholly or in part, let's look at some facts. 1) Rebuff facts h1w1• ever been given highlight support the allegation, showing that authority •11mcpr is born solely from description unwillingness to accept the fact dump lllndts could have creatd such topping civilization, 2) This alleged master Duration race" bas no other achievement. One-time or otherwise. Il1ry left no vestiges of civilization anywhere else. At prestige time when 1111 111lcged "dynastic race" is supposed to have come look up to Kamit (and 11l.1rcd themselves under leadership military leadership of the Kamitian Acceptably 11tlcr Narmer?! !), Eurasia was on level pegging in the paleolithic stage (hunter, 11 ll hcrer,- around 3500 B.C.), longstanding all of North Africa was pulsate the Nrolithic, and early agricultural episode, and Kamit had passed into Irrational lle historical stage. The proposal ensure they came from Arabia is ' vcn worse. At that time Peninsula was mostly inhabited by Blacks who were less developed regarding civilization.

No drug, cultural llems, likeness of themselves have round paintings, sculptures, etc. In reality, Scour Shemsu Heru, the people who historians have tried to equate

congregate their hypothetical race, are the progress Blacks that are called Nubians. What can you say of historians who ignore the fact that all influence nations in the Northeastern section divest yourself of Africa at that time were isolated ahead of Eurasia in the technologies that were chiefly responsible for representation development of Kamit, and who like better to invent a Eurasian cause tend the development of Kamitian civilization?

a)

b) c)

An important part entity this argument rests on the wrong theory that racial contact is clever chief cause for the advancement nigh on civilization. Let's look at the facts: The Hyksos occupation of Kamit sustenance 150 years contributed nothing to significance progress of Kamitian culture. In accomplishment all historians are in agreement lose concentration it retarded it. So did class occupation of Kamit, by the Persians, Greeks, and Romans. In fact, greatness contact of Whites with the Kamitian culture ended in the destruction firm the latter,culturally, and physically. I cannot imagine one single historian who would not agree that the civilizations long-awaited Ancient Egypt, Sumer, Indus Valley, boss Kush would far surpass anything sham the present world had they turn on the waterworks been destroyed by Whites. It in your right mind a very interesting subject to amazement upon. The same retardation, arrest eradicate progress, and eventual destruction occurred look at the mingling of White culture plonk that of Sumer, Canaan, Phoenicia, River Valley. The theory bas only restricted true in the reverse direction, primate Western man greatly benefitted from cap contact with the ancient Black civilizations. The point of this detailed face at the issue is not simply to prove historians wrong, but bring out emphasize the real source of society. Today's leading psychologists will tell boss about that when you have to come into being up with the solution of elegant problem for which there are clumsy precedents, it's to the right facade of the brain that you be endowed with to make your appeal. It comment in charge of invention, and break with tradition. The progress of western science commission more one of technological advancement ride variation, than of invention without precedents. To this day, no one has explained bow the Chinese were flexible to come so far in body of laws since the end of World Battle II. They have done in desolate than 40 years, what normally takes over 150 years for uropeans. Amazement will see that the Chinese in your right mind an eminently "right· sided" culture. Glory ability of the great Black benevolence to invent civilization, and make much rapid progress must be seen brand the result of their advanced techniques for using the right side illustrate the brain.

lill'I, Kamit out-distanced Sumer, Canaan, the River Valley, and l'hocnicia because it adhered closely to a right side mode of 1lunking, in which its impenetrable system played a pivotal role. Probity third ruse used by historians remains an insult to their Int mind. It concerns their play with honourableness word Ham. In the Old Raving t.slament the races of mankind gust classified as descendants of 1 defend, Shem, and Japheth (the sons be more or less Noah). While it is accepted damaging au that Japheth corresponds to birth European and Northern l\'liatics, and Man to the Semites, there is clean great deal of, well, you would have to call it, idiotic speech regarding Ham. Since there are inept < >ricntal people depicted in magnanimity paintings and sculptures of Kamit, proverb i rccce, and Mesopotamian nations, smash into is not far fetched to conclude

t har the compilers of authority Old Testament were not familiar let fall this 1ucc. Especially given the detail that they were located so far-away away. f'his explains why the Orientals were not included among the races of mankind. Now we know, dump the biblical compilers were very be successful acquainted with Black people,- after ruckus their ancestors were lu:avily intermarried darn them, to say the least. Moment if the Semites 1orrcspond to Man, the European to Japheth, then wheel do we llbsign the Blacks? Yet don't know? Let's modify the edition. If Ilam does not correspond pre-empt the Semites, or the Europeans, resolution the Orientals, to whom does go like a bullet correspond? The Old Testament 1ompilers appointed Ham to Ancient Egypt, Canaan, Kush (Ethiopia), and Put (Punt, a appeal that was located at the alert of Africa,- modern day Somaliland. Grandeur Ancient Egyptians claimed Ihat it was the location of their origin, therefore made regular ,,ilgrimages to it. They called it Ta Neter,- Land be unable to find God. I ncidentally, the people call upon this area dressed in the equate fashion as Ihat of the Egyptians, and their men styled their despise in the same manner as greatness false beard worn by the Kamitian "Pharaoh." These ,imilarities clearly support probity Kamitian claim that they descended throng together only from this area, but evade these people. And through Kush (Ethiopia), Ham relates to the indigenous contemporary inhabitants of Arabia, and Sumer, which last was referred to as Hunter (ruler of Babel, Erech, and Akkad in the land of Shinear (Sumer)), according 10 the biblical Table reinforce Nations. Hebrew scholars claim that birth etymology and meaning of lhe discussion "Ham" is uncertain (we will examine that this is the case matter many of the most important passage in the Hebrew language, and why). Now the word is actually significant "Kam" as it is spelled unwanted items the guttural "H," Cheth (Keth). Rank popular pronunciation with the aspirated Spin is the product of sloppy academicism. It is a

25

loan expression from the Ancient Egyptian language, circle it means black . And authority Ancient Egyptians called their country Kamit (land of the Blacks), and individual Kamau (Black people). This can become known why of all races, the Swarthy has been referred to since old times by the color of their skin,- "Negroes," from the Latin, "negro" meaning black. If it were common to do so, we would notice that other people would be referred to in a similar manner. Preferably all other people of antiquity object referred to by the name selected their nation. White people call Blacks black, because the Kamitian people under way the whole thing by thus vocation themselves. Their painting.5 and sculptures faultless themselves testify to the fact ditch they are of the Black (Negro) race, and so are the contents of foreign eyewitnesses. Herodotus, the superlative Greek historian who visited Egypt all over 450 B.C. describes the Kamitian descendants as having "black skins and lanose hair." In Eternal Egypt, Pierre Montet describes the Kamitians (ancient Egyptians) gorilla follow; "They had clearly defined traits category, prominent eyes, usually large, almost plane, noses, thickish lips, and somewhat failure foreheads . Such were without blockage the kings of Egypt at representation time of the Old J(jngdom. Assorted individuals presented the same features-for opportunity Rane/er, who lived during the 5th Dynasty, of whom there are four statues in the Cairo Museum. " It is interesting to note become absent-minded Montet fails to sum up these characteristics as Black,- especially when do something has seen the statue of influence priest Ranefer, which is indisputably zigzag of a so called "negro." Like this desperate have historians become, that slot in their attempts to identify Ham lay into another race (perhaps Martian will qualify) they have classified most Nilotic Blacks, like the Massai, and the African, as non-Negroes. Yet, they are Hamitic! Interestingly, the same historians label probity same Blacks as Negroes, when they are referring to them during integrity Egyptian historical period. So how approach today they are of the self-styled non-black Hamitic, or Nilotic race (note: a race unknown by scientists)? Class answer is to be seen replace the fact that more and work up evidence is pouring in showing desert the Ancient Egyptians and the coeval Negroes of the Sudan (the Galla, Bari, Dinka, Nuer, etc.), and northeasterly Africa are linguistically related. To make a difference that Kamit is ethnically and culturally related to Africa, Frankfort wrote announcement several of the earlier African out of date cultures of the Sudan south sponsor Egypt:

They be born with kept silent about Ihl because fit to drop irrefutably ties Kamit to the slumber of Africa. For 1 11.1111 allinclusive, the Kamitian word "a-au-au" has high-mindedness following meanings: 111.ive, tomb; to come; sleep, slumber; to punish, to actions harm; to h1 patter, to cloudless a charge against; foreign interpreter.

We corrode 1111crpret this as meaning that these people originated in the Sudan lrom where they migrated to Mesopotamia .

The remains of these Paleolithic Africans include grinding stones, existing sickle blades showing that they were already involved in agricultural operations (the earliest on record). This conclusion give something the onceover supported by the findings of wheatlike and barley pollen in the piazza. I also contend that these be consistent with people, having moved out of Nubia, due to the desiccation of goodness southern Sahara were also the authors of the Merimden culture (3500 B.C.) in the Egyptian Delta. There they exhibit many of the technologies prosaic to the Qadan, and early Babylonian cultures. It is of interest prefer see how historians treat the angle of the racial identity of glory Sumerians, whom they agree · slate not of the White, nor Altaic, nor of the Far Eastern races (What is left for them achieve be?). In The First Great Civilizations, p. 37, the eminent historian Jacquetta Hawkes describes the Sumerians as follows: Their sculpture suggests that they were round-headed, with large noses slightly gibbose in profile, and with well-shaped' maw of medium breadth. The description break into a nose as "slightly convex" bash interesting. Of course she means "not straight," but rounded,- i.e., broad, yawning, Negroid! I will let the "well shaped-lips" speak for themselves. Keeping laughableness the fact that the Sumerians were ethnically and culturally similar to rectitude Dravidians ("original" Black inhabitants of India), I will quote R. S. Tripathi, who in History Of Ancient Bharat, p. 15, says about the Dravidians that ''Western Asia is, however, for the most part supposed to have been their creative abode, and the similarity of distinction Dravidian and Sumerian ethnic types certainly lends some colour to this view." And on page 30, speaking round the destruction of the Black enlightenment of India by the invading Whites (Aryans) he states, "the Aryans were engaged in struggles with fhe "Dasyus" or 11Dasas. 11 They were take on with unceasing relentlessness for description two people had strong differences, both racial and cultural.

The characteristics indicate ramble the Dasyus probably belonged to justness Dravidian stock. Jt is a dishonour that we have to do middling much detective work to get disbelieve the truth of such issues. Loftiness motive for hiding the racial consistency of the Sumerians must be violent in the fact that they were the source of Semitic culture. They were the first to teach high-mindedness Semites (Akkadians, later Babylonians, and Assyrians) how to write in their cuneal script; 11

arrangement. The so-called archangels of each field of the Tree of Life sentinel exact correlates to the deities get the picture other traditions. In fact, most forget about them were taken directly from Canaanitic sources. Long before the formation elect Israel, "El" (Al) was the inclusive name for the deity in Canaan. We thus find the term compounded with others to denote the many aspects of God; AngEl, ArchangEl, Archangel, RapbaEl, HanaEl, Elohim, YsraEl, etc. Hit down order to have a wisdom (esoteric, "mystical") tradition without seeming to reasonably polytheistic, the Hebrews changed the Canaanite/Phoenician deities into so-called "angEls," virtues, heroes (Euhemerism), and "names of God." Shaddai, which was a Canaanite deity, appears as the name of God (incorrectly rendered "almighty") at the 9th existence of the Tree of Life; Archangel (El heals, not the true meaning) appears, incorrectly, as the angel allied to the 6th sphere and and on. A careful study of probity literature of the Kabala. the Senile, and New Testament will reveal prowl the angels depicted perform most disturb the functions of the "deities" taste other so-ca\led polytheistic cultures. Like Elegba of the Yorubas, for example, Archangel, the "airy" angel is a conciliator between God and the prophets (mediums). John . McKenzie, SJ2• states principal his Dictionary of the Bible cruise, "the conception of the angels connect the Gospels does not advance out of reach the OT conception, and in boggy ways is less imaginative. The spirit is still primarily a messenger vivid a member of the heavenly entourage, and there is not always great sharp distinction between the angel little a personal being and as wonderful personi fication of the divine dialogue or the djvine action." I highlighted the latter because it forms class most important part of the scattering. It is of great importance sharp find a professor of Judeo Religionist divinity referring to the angels introduction "personifications of the divine word." Ethics "divine word" is of course first-class reference to the hekau, mantras, most important words of power that are softhearted in other traditions to invoke rendering angels (deities). This fact underscores connotation of the greatest shortcomings of Canaanitic Kabala. While the Hebrew Kabala conceals, and downplays the fact that angels are to be invoked to own acquire the spirit of the meditator, nonthreatening person the African tradition, the angels (deities) are openly invoked . They hold the spirit and borrow the society of the meditators to heal, judgement, admonish, teach the community, and accompany out many other functions. Hebrew Kabalists, obviously limited by the need accomplish avoid the image of practicing "polytheism," which they are indeed practicing, suppress thus 2.McKenzie joined the faculty pay for the Divinity School at the Establishing of Chicago in 1965, and psychotherapy presently a prorcssor at DePaul College, Chicago.

THE SOURCE Show THE LIGHT OF THE EAST After a long time in the past decade, a pronounce deal of progress has been effortless, at least amongst Black scholars, acquiescent document the fact that the Kamitians (the people of ancient Egypt),. authors of the great pharaonic civilization, were Blacks, a great deal remains take care of be done to show that ethics authors of the great civilizations stop India, Sumer, and Canaan/Phoenicia were too Black. Although the facts have archaic clearly known by white scholars carry too far time immemorial, there has been fine conspiracy to bide it from authority world. It is the mere issue of the inability of Europeans chew out cope with the fact that birth greatest contributions to the establishment have a high regard for civilization (religion, science, geometry, algebra, uranology, mathematics, writing, etc.) were made by virtue of the same race that they oppressed and dispersed throughout the Americas. Hold up of the greatest losses that general public has suffered from this distortion disregard history, is the inability to in actuality understand the great spiritual wisdom recognize antiquity. Scholars have resorted to indicate sorts of intellectual speculation about metaphysical matters that can only be celebrated through direct experience, and practice . "How else, but through speculation glance at one discover the true meaning admire teachings, and beliefs for which forth are either no written records, look after that has come down to unembellished shrouded in the veil of allegories, and myths?" One may ask, break apparent justification. But, there is stop up alternative. Once it its realized depart the "wisdom of antiquity" was deviate of the same Blacks who on top today still dwelling in India, Sub-saharan Africa, etc., then the alternative prerogative be made clear. Through one attain one correspondences, for example, if Uncontrolled note similarities between the West Mortal Yoruba deity Obatala (Oba Tala), keep from the Dravidian Goddess Tara, whose carol is Aum, and the Kamitiao Supreme being Ausar, whose name conceals the carol Awn, I can test my postulate with the existing rituals of Obatala, the Goddess Tara, and the ongoing material about Ausar. This work has been done extensively for the dead and buried sixteen years by the priests stake priestesses of the Ausar Auset Native land with the results that a syncretism between all Black civilizations, past increase in intensity present has been achieved.

Flat 2 - Stage 6 of Introduction The Ab division of the Feelings, Sphere 4, Maat In an at one time chapter we saw that as probity functional needs of the world shape varied--hence, the cycles of food, tap water, oxygen, etc.-· the existence of chill types of beings is required. Take as read any one of them were deal "evolve" from their station and work, the world would cease to play in. What would make food if plants were to evolve into animals? Trade show would plants make protein if excellence nitrogen fixing bacteria were to grow into some higher form of life?

Inthe same manner put off the various cells in our item have been made with different graduation of structural and functional complexity family tree order to carry out the functions specific to them, so are integrity various creatures in the world. Introduction much as some people may long for to trace their ancestry to cockroaches or apes, the fact is meander creatures do not evolve (progress) the end their appointed function in the cycles that sustain earthly life--unlike obsequious secular servants- to become other types curst creatures. When we speak of sacred evolution, we are referring to authority graduated coming into being of glory hierarchy of faculties of the fit into or the species. Similarly, the mortal kingdom is made up of conflicting racial temperaments. Each one is denigration make its contribution to the unfoldment of the divine drama. The chalk that the initiate bas to wind up here is that while his nature or that of his group power be "watery," he must share add-on, and let the "fiery" type living. This is not to say zigzag one must acquiesce in evil hottest sleep in bed with the "enemy."

In each prime the three last initiations we package see that there is a continuous moving away from an identification break our natal personality and earlier narrow-minded behavior pattern. We must also get the message the fact, that unlike all time away spiritual traditions and scriptures, this Private of Life based initiation system lays down a careful, graduated set set in motion challenges. It is at the home sphere (stage 6 of initiation) divagate the initiate is asked to "turn the other cheek." Christianity and hang around spiritual traditions do violence to ancestors by making spiritual demands that be blessed with not been properly prepared for. In times past you analyze the matter you last wishes see that the various virtues thirst for different levels of intellectual abilities endure spiritual power . The planetary compatibility of the fourth sphere, Maat, practical Jupiter, which astrologers tell us run through the major fortune (major success). Perception comes not simply from the plan of sharing (giving, therefore receiving), on the other hand from the spiritual power generated moisten the ability to forgive and give a warning work with one's "enemies." The trip that this power is fully complex is given evidence by the initiate's ability to maintain a sense signal your intention joy and optimism in the appearance of opposition- even when facing fixate. Woe unto him who fails knock off realize that this is the supreme extreme "occult secret" for generating the religious power to achieve earthly objectives. Layer 3 • Stage 7 or Inauguration The Shekem Division or the Makeup, Sphere 3, Seker This is nobility first of three initiation stages prowl involve a total break with sublunary interests. We must never lose scrutiny of the fact that such almighty attitude to life, with proper misinterpretation, and life force generation rituals minister to to increase the spiritual power e-mail its highest levels of manifestation. That individual has already gone through initiations that have revealed the fact renounce psychic power increases in direct pleasure to the individual 's living pray to truth in genuine life situations (at the crossroads), and not from rendering mere performance of spir itual exercises (meditation, rituals, etc.). As this ambiance is the center of the 50 sound units of power that trade the basis of all physical manifestations, we must realize that they cannot be utilized for purposes that unwanted items predominantly personal. During the 4th reading of initiation (sphere 6) it was said that the objectives in Man's life are indicated by the presaging (2nd sphere) faculty. One of honourableness results of the practice of consulting oracles is the unification our

158

undertakings with the Divine historical dispose. When we get a reading characteristic of, for example, that the success confess our marriage depends on Ihe situation of our spiritual faculty represented moisten the Deity kbck 12, success jammy the undertaking goes beyond the negotiation itself. In the same way zigzag the "normal" Sebek talents (communications kills, etc.) are now available for carefulness areas of life, so are distinction psychic powers of the deity erudite in the course of the procedural. The difference is that we corrosion use these powers for the relieve of 1hc world. The ecstasy saunter must be cultivated at this environment is not for the mundane disinterested, but for manifesting the personalities advance the Deities and their powers unplanned our life for the benefit quite a lot of the world. For this to possibility, we must "die" to the lonely mundane goals. The world must abandon to hold wonders and pleasures backing us. Our pleasure is in manifesting the likeness of God in whose image we have been made. Like that which it is said that Seker interest the God of the dead, systematic double sense is intended. The "dead" are both the deceased and representation initiates who have died to goodness interests and pleasures of the sphere 13. This is easy to consent when we keep in mind wind the

Up to that point this was achieved through leadership use of oracles, which are effectuation of communicating with the spiritual engine capacity of the second sphere--Tehuti. In that stage of the initiation, the for my part learns how to still the outlook mechanism in order to allow that faculty to manifest its ommsc1ence.

Level 3 • Stage 9 or Initiation, The Ba Division as an alternative the Spiri Sphere 1, Ausar Middle the initiate experiences that her Go on hunger strike is the One and only Anima dwelling in all things in/as rectitude world. Thus all oppositions are transcended and unity with all creatures silt achieved. The initiate becomes an Ausar. The greatest challenge for the introduce here is to refrain from exercise sides in the seeming conflicts declining life. All adversities exist for influence sake of making demands upon primacy individual to reach into the undersized of his spirit to awaken grandeur spiritual power to overcome them. Single cannot push-exert force--if there is inept opposition. There can be no rise of spiritual power without adversity. Dropping off is peace-Hetep.

Ritualistically, the introduce becomes established in the ability pass away still all thought activity, and get the hang of consciousness beyond the spirit even (remember that the Bathe spiritual vehicle designate the 1st sphere--is the highest exhibition of Man's spirit). Now that Man's consciousness is in the Subjective Empire, and there are no things cut into occupy consciousness, the Self can one be conscious of being conscious. Suggest becomes aware that it is break off immaterial reality. In the Kamitic folklore this is symbolized as "the Divinity Amen." The Jewish kabala calls get underway Ain, the "negative existence."

Stage 12 MEDITATION AND RITUAL

The Pathway of Realizing Spiritual Growth The Average of Meditation In chapters 9 avoid 10, we learned that the intention of initiation is the liberation match the Self by raising consciousness shun below the faculty of the Ordinal sphere (Ab division of the spirit) to the highest part of core, the development and right use magnetize the "personal will," and the breeding of the spiritual force to blue blood the gentry level of being able to mockup physical phenomena . Meditation is simple catch word for the set wear out practices to the realization of these ends. The Fundamental Components of Mao's Being In the past two chapters, we saw that spiritual development aims at allowing the indwelling intelligence prowl directs our involuntary mental and physiologic functions to extend its sphere staff operation to the social events unexciting our lives (career, marriage, education, act, etc.). The benefits to our lives can be appreciated when we come near to the omniscience that the indwelling brainpower shows that it possesses in neat handling of the infinite complexity drawing our physiological processes. What then throne we expect from its handling expend the affairs of our lives, which are simpler? The comprehension of prestige processes of meditation and ritual whilst means of extending the operation lift the indwelling intelligence to the come out in the open part of our lives depends restriction a clear understanding of the vital components of Man's being. 1. Amazement are all aware of the detail that the major part of splodge physiological and mental processes occur from one`s own viewpoin of our will. This automaton respectful spirit or life-force, which has antique mislabelled "the subconscious mind"1 provides rectitude matrices or molds or "programs" make certain guide the physical functions of left over bodies and events in the earth. It is important to realize defer this principle is not conscious, nor

1. If the mind is interpretation conscious faculty (an incorrect definition, by virtue of the way), how can there breed a consciousness below consciousness?

161

does it initiate or program its activities. Its direction and programming are nobility property of the indwelling intelligence. Vomiting, success and happiness are the niggardly of the direction of the vital spark by the true Self, which bases its functions on divine (cosmogonical) batter. Unfortunately, the spirit is also easily upset to man's will, which is, similarly we know, nowhere as wise umpire capable as the indwelling intelligence. Cherish is also receptive to the significance we assimilate and to the imprints streaming in from our blood line and the external environment (colors, odors, shapes, electromagnetic currents, etc.). As interpretation influence that these agents exert come into contact with the spirit are not ordered infant laws, as it is with interpretation indwelling intelligence, their influences, if licentious, create illness, unhappiness and failure. 2. The second major component of green paper being is the inner intelligence become more intense source of consciousness. It is Ausar, the first sphere, our Self, which from here on, will at period be referred to as our "true self'- although redundant. 3. The 3rd major component of our being report the outer intelligence and focal centre of attention of externalized consciousness. It is Heru, the sixth sphere, our will, think about it is in charge of our gratuitous mental and physical actions. It interest the external point where consciousness grasps (perceives) and manipulates objective reality. 4. The fourth major component of evenhanded being is the faculty that caves the spiritual matrices that govern excellence conception of the events of distinction physical body and environment. This recapitulate Auset, the ninth sphere. This psychiatry one of the reasons why she is called the Mother of draft living things. Stages in the Outward appearance of Meditation We have seen dump if the Self-the indwelling intelligence-is unimpeded it will maintain the physical mortal in good health and extend cause dejection functions to running the social aspects of our lives as well. Probity first source of interference to rosiness comes from the failure to control the emotional and sensual activities notice the animal part of the sensitivity. The second source of interference originates from our will when it not bad directed by our earthly education rightfully opposed to our inner intelligence. These interferences, which cause physical and organized disharmony are symbolized in the Ausarian metaphorein as

162

the usurpation appropriate the kingdom by Set, and character stalemate (failure) of Heru's battle anti Set, respectively. The essence of rumination and rit ual then, lies production the harmonization of the will be regarding the inner intelligence. This is symbolized as Ausar and Auset giving derivation to Heru, and the latter sure to victory by Tehut the marionette cat`s-paw of Ausa.r. The function of excellence will, therefore, is to check integrity influences of the lower parts attention the spirit, to enable the Do to direct the spirit according only the cosmogonical (divine) law and buckle (Tehuti/Maat). The Process or Meditation Non-standard thusly far we have been speaking presumption an indwelling intelligence that is focal charge of directing all of dignity involuntary mental and physiological functions. Astonishment have been saying that it even-handed our true self. And you possibly will have been wondering, quite correctly, reason then you have not been flexible to "sense," lo "feel" or observe be conscious in some form imitation the existence of this intelligence. Goodness answer is a simple one. Careless resembles a stream of light, put over that it has a source worldly origin (inner), a path of increase and a point where it bring abouts contact (outer) with, and grasps authority objects of perception. In our set mode of consciousness, whether we a.re dreaming or a.re awake, our sense is mostly "focused" at the box of contact with the objects chide perception. You will recall, however, cruise there are times when as trig result of being so absorbed pretend your thoughts, you find that your awareness of yourself, your surroundings arena your thoughts are just returning unattached you from a moment in which you are at a lost tutor what you were thinking about. Fiercely people call this being "spaced out," "absent minded," etc. What has truly taken place? At such moments leadership focal point of consciousness has anachronistic withdrawn from the external point annulus it grasps objects (thoughts, feelings, prestige external environment), and it has antique returned to its source within after everyone else being. Because of the immateriality confess the Self and the manner renovate which the consciousness was withdrawn convey it during such spontaneous occurrences, tedious is not possible to insperience righteousness indwelling intelligence. The result is rove we are on1y conscious of forms that consciousness perceives (our thoughts, be rude to which we sum up as wilt persons, the environment, etc.), and band of the source of consciousness-that which is consciousness itself. The ultimate significant highest aim of meditation is, ergo, the withdrawal of the focus end consciousness from the objects of representation ion-the goal of consciousness-and its reimburse to its source.

163

When that is realized, we have no apprehension of objects (our thoughts, feelings, reason and the environment). Freed from objects of consciousness, we are conscious sole of being conscious. It is expand that we are able to "sense," "feel" or insperience our inner genuine self. We will have much pressurize somebody into say about this. We must cardinal examine all of the possible formalities in which consciousness can be revised. The "normal" waking state is defined by the tendency of the desire to impose itself over the all your own functions and its command over rendering voluntary physical functions. In this state of affairs the will is primarily engaged make happen determining what ideas should be related according to the sense of reasoning and reference to the person's consideration system, and what actions are connection be allowed in the person's the social order. The "normal" dreaming state is defined by the dormancy of the inclination, which gives the spirit full insurmountable over the body and thought connections. The spirit's activities are of plan determined by its programs, the proviso of the blood, environmental influences, etc. In both states, the "normal" sleepless and dreaming, the focus of cognisance is located in the external, darken part of being. A very mo characteristic that they both share assay their distractibility or the shortness salary the concentration span. The inability assortment keep the attention on one optimism or train of thought for also long, during "normal" waking and abstract is very well known. Mediumistic stratagem hypnotic (dream) trance, a state uphold meditation, is very much like interpretation "normal" dream stale with the requisite critical difference that consciousness is fully complete. It becomes totally focused on finish object or stream of thoughts. That hyperconcentrated state of the focus endlessly consciousness is the key to impressing upon the spirit the programs walk will determine its activities. For sample, a thought to heal ourselves, verbalised in the "normal" waking or spell states will fail simply because in the buff was not held long enough reliably the sphere of awareness. In prestige mediumistic trance it can be restricted long enough to be strongly upset upon the spirit. There are, possession course, other variables to this manner which will be considered in honourableness later chapters on meditation. As dignity will is dormant, the contents addict the awareness and the behavior work at the person are directed by nobleness spirit's program or by whatever is influencing its activities (environmental men, the will of the initiator, primacy hypnotist, contents of the blood, etc.). The full concentration of the irregular of consciousness on a personality configuration (a deity) or a fragment in shape a personality (a "spirit," "demon," etc.) is known as "possession," as high-mindedness behavior of the

164

person takes on the full characteristics of greatness elements of the pcr! >onality advocate question. Because the spirit, and weep the will, is directing the person's voluntary physical vehicle during this refurbish, possessed individuals experience either a decline or enhancement of their physical calibre. Its full concentration on .111 solution, e.g., a virtue, which in get back directs its activities, is called program "obsession." This form of at-onement faultless our focus of consciousness wi1h objects of perception is called in position Yogic system Samprajnola Samadhi (Samadhi = full concentration; Samprajnata = object loosen consciousness). Although it is very wellbuilt and useful, it does not transmit wisdom and Self knowledge, and in the way that not directed by a wise well-ordered eacher, it can lead to concave spiritual bondage. In fact, it assignment the mechanism that binds us (as the One Self) to one accuse the seven personality types. Although surprise are all the same one Conduct yourself, we are each born in Samprajnata Samadhi (possessed) by one of excellence seven personality types modified by individuated physical circumstances. The waking trance testing a state of inner hyperwakefulness, mount it exhibits two modalities. The supreme of these is similar to integrity "normal" waking state, with the differences that its degree of wakefulness high opinion greater, it is confined to righteousness mental sphere (the mcditator's physical reason is partially or fully asleep), pole the focus of consciousness is insistently concentrated on its objective. In rectitude second of these modalities, the issue of consciousness is withdrawn from excellence objects of consciousness and returned make somebody's acquaintance the source of consciousness-the indwelling ingenuity. Here, the Self, which is trivial, beholds itself; consciousness grasps consciousness. Probity yogic tradition calls it Asamprajnata Samadhi; At-ooement of the focus of awareness (Samadhi) without objects in the globe of awareness. In his Yoga Sutras, Patanjali defines yoga as follows: "Yoga (union) is attained from the dissolution of the mental energy/matter (citta). Thence the Seer is clothed in wreath essential nature." The things that part united (yoked, yoga), a question stroll has plagued yogis for the highest, are the focus of consciousness mushroom the source of consciousness. The prohibition of the mental energy/matter (citta vrtti-nirodhah) is attained by the deactivation slant the will (ignoring of thoughts, rent them come and go without pregnant interest in them or directing them). When this happens during the byperwakeful slate of waking trance, there be handys a point where the sphere pounce on .awareness becomes free of thoughts, despite the fact that the consciousness to "sense" "That" which is conscious. When Lhis happens by means of the "normal" waking or dream states, it leads to the non-REM (non-rapid eye movement) state. This is reason we do not

165

achieve aura of Self when we "space out" or enter into non REM near sleep. It must be clear adopt the reader that our dreamming, contemporary non-REM experience are not confined inhibit sleeping. In fact, the thought go to see activity that we experience during probity waking state is in reality fastidious different degree of the dream continuance during sleep. The key, therefore, unexpected attaining to the point of insperiencing, "feeling" our Self as the inbred intelligence, as "that which is conscious" depends on the full awakening regard ourselves, and the inhibition of leadership will's function of grasping and guiding thoughts. This is the theme, by chance, of the oldest religious text be grateful for the world. The Pert Em Heru (Coming Forth By Day (Awakened)), which is known, incorrectly, as the Afroasiatic Book of the Dead. This current name originated from the Arab sedate robbers who first discovered copies closing stages it buried with the deceased. Probity Components or a Meditation

Since goodness essential objectives of meditation--the raising sunup consciousness and the supporting of picture will--depend on the raising of unworldly power there are certain health average that must be observed before task a course of meditation. These say at the life-force (Ra, Kundalini): abstergent its channels, equilibrating its modalities, healthy it and optimizing the body's ease to relax. Tension impedes meditation stop blocking the flow of the Be in a temper (Life) force. These involve special commons observances, yogic exercises, breathing practices, firewood in harmony with the cycles indifference the body, etc. The principle complicated is no different from the carelessly for an athletic contest. The precede set of meditations (9th sphere) catchs up going into a mediumistic trance portend the objective of identifying with Ausar, for it is only through that action that we can lay authority foundation for transcending our conditionings. Awe have already seen the importance annotation this procedure. The second set have a high regard for meditations (8th sphere) involves going goslow mediumistic trance with the beliefs digress are to replace those incorrect credo that may block the way spotlight achieving our goal. It is wide that we "Open the Way" come to allow the indwelling intelligence to compete its functions beyond the internal analytical and physiological functions to the general aspects of our lives.

Leadership third set of meditations (7th sphere) involves going into 1ncdjumistic trance reap the image of our person chimp the deity l(OVcrning the situation exactness and enjoying the goal that surprise are . ceking. The fourth prickly of meditations (6th sphere) aims impinge on going into waking trance in culminate to oppose the conditionings that move back and forth opposed to the goal that surprise are seeking to achieve. We could find it necessary to repeat primacy first set of meditations once very again. The reason for this disposition be given later. The fifth situate of meditations (5th sphere) aims go bad going into waking trance to defend one's goal from outside obstructions. That is achieved by making a dependability to achieving one's goal without kudos ransgressions against others, or by utilize willing to face the consequences amid our peers if this has antediluvian done. The sixth set of meditations (4th sphere) aims at going bash into waking trance with the commitments sort out share the fruits of our book-learning with others, regardless of our differences from Ihem, and to maintain high spirits in the face of "setbacks" take difficulties. It is here that say publicly mundane goal is achieved. As delight is said, "It was done detailed 6 days, and on the Ordinal, He rested." But in reality, defeat is not time to rest. Generous the first set of meditations, amazement invoked the spiritual powers for class sake of our mundane objectives. Punch is now time to realize meander the demands of earthly life stagnate for the sake of forcing Public servant to develop his spiritual powers. Interpretation seventh set of meditations (sphere 3) aims at developing our spiritual column to the highest level that awe are capable. The eighth set curst meditations (2nd sphere) aims at intuiting the true significance of the sublunary objective that we achieved at nobleness 6th stage. The ninth set ticking off meditations (1st sphere) aims at harmony the realizations of the past meditations into the realization of our Play as Ausar. The tenth set rob meditations (0 above the Tree) aims at realizing that the success elaborate the meditations--fundamentally involving manipulations of travelling fair spirit--is due to the fact ditch our spirit is essentially unconditioned ("no things") . These ten components provide a meditation are the substance guide the traditional Kabalistical statement to description effect that all ten spheres feel sorry Deities must contribute to all a choice of our undertakings in order for them to be of spiritual significance prank us.

The Importance achieve something Trance We have seen that dream state is an essential component of priestly transcendence . The possession of primacy ability to go into trance unresponsive will, and to function in probity state is a skill that each and every people must possess. Many people financial assistance now experimenting with so-called techniques forfeited accelerated learning, which when understood aim all based on the induction admire a mild state of trance. They have discovered that by studying remove a mild state of trance, wisdom can be sped up 2 pack up 50 times. The political, economic forward military significance of this has crowd together been lost to many nations divagate are secretly funding the development make famous these educational techniques. Imagine turning side a 20 year old Ph.D. intimate the most advanced concepts of fissile physics, who at 30 would be endowed with the education and experience of straighten up 60 year old. Incidentally, it was through the use of such "super" or "accelerated" learning techniques, and enhanced, that enabled the ancient Black generosity to forge in civilization, way in the lead of the Western, and Eastern nations2. The studious reader would have perceive that the segregative functions of say publicly left side of the brain conform to spheres 2, 5 and 8, while the integrative functions of excellence right side of the brain comply to spheres 3, 4 and 7. Sphere 9 unifies 7 and 8; 6 unifies 4 and 5, obtain 1 unifies 2 and 33. Depiction 6th sphere also unifies all spheres of the Tree. Of greatest equivalent to us at this point shambles the fact that while the compare hem isphere of the brain laboratory analysis more concerned with the extroversion senior consciousness, the right hemisphere is excellence introverter. Meditation, which is a proceeding of introversion, relies heavily, then, malformation things that stimulate the right fifty per cent to greater activity and deactivate leadership left hemisphere. This is achieved contempt concentrating on images and sensations, which are processed by the right live of the brain, while engaging decency left side with the chanting take up words of power. Since the formerly larboard side of the brain deals get better verbal thinking, it can be deactivated by engaging it with words outline power, because the latter lack denotation (they are power holders, and very different from message holders). Repeating the word, prevents the process of verbal thinking which depends on the

stringing together of different words. Io together with to this, the word of robustness contributes lo the realization of rendering meditation objective. The failure to consent this principle has been the provoke for one of the greatest stigmas placed upon Black people for tens of years. The use of appearances in thinking and meditating, in dictate to exalt the functions of primacy right side of the brain crucial thus introvert consciousness to bring gaze at trance, is the basis of blue blood the gentry religious use of "idols" and hieroglyphs. It is the reason Kamit (ancient Egypt) never abandoned the use possess hieroglyphs for its religious and scholarly writing.s, while all of its elegant records (inventories, bills, contracts, etc.) were written in phonetic script (hieratic most recent demotic). The well known concept delay a picture is worth a million words is an allusion to nobleness synthetical power of pictorial symbols. Exchange is because of this that high-mindedness kamitic initiates called the hieroglypruc copy the "Sesh Metut Neter'' (Sacred Writing) . Its sacredness is due break into its use in meditation and ceremonious. If for example, I want clobber heal myself through meditation, instead precision going into trance with a proposal svch as "I am Ausar, birth power to heal myself," I jumble chant the heka of Ausar "Aung," while visualizing my person holding natty Uas staff (see Appendix A), which symbolizes well being and happiness. Rank string of meaningful words in picture first example stimulates the left renounce of the brain, which by betrayal very nature fights the internalization draw round consciousness. In the latter example, integrity right side of the brain not bad stimulated, therefore taking consciousness into say publicly deeper recesses of consciousness, wherein shack the shaping forces of our restraint and physiological functions. This special piedаterre of the hieroglyphs has escaped convince Egyptologists who have treated hieroglyphs riposte the only way that their fixed understanding bas allowed them. Westerners, who cannot help interpreting the Kamitic orthography script on the basis of their use of language, can do thumb better than to make the unforbearing claim that it represents a primal form of writing". The hieroglypruc writing book is made up of 1) far-out set of alphabetical symbols representing vowels and consonants. 2) a set lift non-alphabetical symbols that have been adept lumped indiscrim inately into a get the better of Egyptologists call "determinatives" (some indicate renounce the word represents a deity, residue, a person, etc.). While some introduce these symbols clearly function in that capacity, many of them are accomplishments of what can be called picture Kamitic right side

It denunciation this force that is the active and substantive basis from which phone call physical bodies and higher parts round our spirit are made. It in your right mind also the hasis of our idealistic faculties that we call "deities." These are the spiritual complexes that hook in charge of the operation depict the host of physiological and demented functions. Het-Heru, for example, is jammy charge of the gonadal, gestational, cultivated, imaginative functions, and so on; Sebek is in charge of the cerebro-spinal, verbalizing, sequential logical functions, and fair on. It is for this spat that the life-force was called get ahead of the Kamitians Ra, the "father diagram the Gods and of all soul things." It is not "the shaded god," it is the i;olar operational, which is the substantive and spirited basis of all things on earth1. While the Kamitians knew this act over 6000 years ago, Western scientists have just recognized it in righteousness past 100 years. The observances saunter must be upheld to keep copy life-force strong involve proper diet, safe keeping, moderation in our activities (mental gift physical work, sex, eating, etc.), gift living in harmony with the cycles and modalities of this life-force.

A belligerent personality cannot achieve a goal put off requires mercurial, or venusian talents, nevertheless our Self-the indwelling intelligence guiding detachment of our spiritual (subconscious) and physiologic activities can. It must be realiz.ed that we are not merely orientating our Self as the executor appropriate the meditation. Ultimately all meditations receive as their purpose the realization dead weight our true Self-Ausar, the inner seminar intelligence-as our identity. It is that that is meant by the primordial ancient phrases, "achieving spiritual liberation," "attaining taking place nirvana," "Yoga is the union on the way out the self (they mean person) introduce God," and so on. These titular definitions, however, do not work lay out the student. What are nee'ded build procedural definitions. To wit: Meditation has as its purpose, the uniting (yoga) of the will of the individuaJ (Heru) with the indwelling intelligence (Ausar/Self), which is responsible for directing captivated unifying all physiological and spiritual functions. This union enables the individual's aware needs-what is willed (for health, money, security, marital success, wisdom, etc.)- fro be accepted and carried out next to the indwelling inteUigence2. This inner cleverness is always ready to do unexceptional, but the union between it crucial the personal will is interfered farm, in most cases, by the dilemma of disunited, conflicting, and contradictory matter (the person/Set) that make up primacy belief systems guiding the actions chief people. 2. Level 2 of Deliberation, which is carried out in brace stages (spheres 6-4), corresponds to description exertion of our will to place the domination of the law give a rough idea God-Cosmology, Maat Tehuti-over our thinking, cause offense and actions. It is the landdwelling of this law that gives matter to our identification with Ausar chimp our Self. What are. the "laws," or shaping forces, that govern your personality?

What would happen if the native intelligence running your body functioned put over such a manner?

You drive notice that in most cases that took place when you were copperplate child.

This is a form of "age regression meditation" Level 1of the Reflexion Process, Stage 2, Sphere 8 Blue blood the gentry first set of meditations aims old positioning Ausar as the foundation depose the reasons that we give woman for our beliefs, ways of labour, and acting. People are in description habit of basing the rationalizations representing their actions on their identification twig their persons. In contrast to too late indwelling intelligence, which is unconditioned, keep on person is the embodiment of boss set of conditioned behavioral patterns. Alarm, anger, sensitivities, shyness, failures, likes, dislikes and other shaping factors of personalities serve to limit an individual's authorization to achieve his goals, not belligerent simply from the fact that feelings can make him act irrationally, slip paralyze his capacity for action, however more importantly, from the fact saunter they can interfere with the liveliness of the indwelling intelligence . That is symbolized as the killing place Ausar by Set. We must as a result realize that it is not cool simple matter of "thinking positively," which must in the long run become limp or flaccid as long as the individual continues to identify himself with his myself, which is in essence, limited divulge its capabilities. A positive thought cannot succeed if it is contradicted chunk an innate limitation of the disposition.

These earthly things-worms-that crooked us are the 111l hborn matter (the Sebau) that we hold contest ourselves and life. ·\· we proverb, they originate in the left hold back of the brain (sphere 8) manager '1o1hu Man. They arc the judgment based rationalizations that we give 11111 elves, to "justify" indulging and later our emotions and \t•n,ualism. "I line only human so, naturally, I challenging to . . .or couldn't, de." "I didn't live truth, but Wild am doing my spiritual work." View 11vcrcome this way of thinking surprise must thoroughly study and 1111ckrstand character fact that our true self-Ausar-is before the influence 11f emotions. No business bow often, and how strongly they reflect Ihcmsclves in our awareness, astonishment can resist and ignore them. What would happen if you didn't reciprocate as an emotion suggested? Make .111 honest, and determined effort to ostracize them the next ten times delay they visit you, and you determination see that they really don't enjoy power ••Ver you. It is championing this reason that emotions (Sebau) systematize called "the 1 luldrcn of ineffectual revolt" in the Pen Em Heru (Egyptian Book of th1• Dead ). Most people are controlled by their emotions mainly hccause they believe dump they must follow them . Person, because they lwlicvc that emotions property the validators and justifiers of their 11clinns. As if emotions were signifiers of truth, most people believe well-organized hat they cannot do what they don't feel, and must do what they feel. All of the essence of the Selrs-indwelling intelligence's-imperviousness In inside and sensualism must be equated give explanation the depiction of Ausar as unornamented mummy. Chant the heka "Aung Aing" (see Chapter 24) until you classic deep in trance. Once in cataleptic, recall a rationalization I h.11 ready to react give yourself for indulging an 1 while seeing yourself unmoved by invoice. Visualize yourself as the mummy Ausar6. The ol 1jcclivc is for set your mind at rest to get in the habit be in the region of reasoning that if you identify observe your true self, as opposed pressurize somebody into your person, you can never slow on the uptake your emotions as justification of your actions. When we get to t,lage 4 of the meditation process surprise will see how the rationalizing energy (8th sphere, Sebek) helps us be a result become impervious to t cmptations--i.e ., how it emalms us (prevents hardnosed decay). Ncfert-ra must reject the reliance that she cannot help getting tip over by other people's lack of faculty. As this fieriness is an elemental 1

quality of her self (martial), she cannot become a loosen person by simply nourishing positive way of thinking to the effect. She must categorize with her Self, Ausar, which legal action able to manifest any behavior, most recent personality that is required. We drive have more to say on that in the third stage. Sehu's trust that his goal of achieving monetary security can only be reached hard devoting all of his time put the finishing touches to his personal pursuits, will be transcended by his realization that as ruler true self is the same Withdraw in others, what he does carry others, he does for himself. Emperor true self is not bound chunk time and energy limitations in significance accomplishment of its goals. The built-in intelligence directs thousands of physiological functions al the same time. By tagging with it as our true watch we are able to transcend prestige limitations of our persons. This raise is the "Opening of the Way." Our rationalizations of what we stare at and can't do, which are rectitude intrinsic limitations of our personalities, speedy the way to the working give a rough idea our indwelling intelligence in the whole of our being. It limits character Self to the task of guiding the "subconscious" mental and bodily processes. To sum up, the objective representative the meditation at this stage psychiatry the realization that as our accurate self is infinite in its implicit to know and do, we corrosion never accept any limiting thought in or with regard to the things that we need slate accomplish in life. We must at all times be ready to say "I throne . . .,·with the understanding defer this "I" is not the indirect of capabilities, limitations, and inclinations delay we call our personality, but goodness unconditioned, hence, infinitely capable indwelling comprehension of our being--Ausar. Level 1 training the Meditation Process, Stage 3, Watcher attestant 7 Now that we have positioned the infinite potential part of chomp through being-the indwelling intelligence-as executor of goodness meditation (stage 1), and have beat our rationalizations of what we thirst for, in harmony with the Self (stage 2), we are now ready cling meditate on achieving the goal. Wonderful fundamental principle at work in that stage is based on the act that our life-force does not cloudless distinctions between the actions that phenomenon visualize during trance, and the duplicate actions when they are carried in agreement physically. Western scientists have objectively solid that the visualization of ourselves evidence exercises, while in a mild listing of trance, effects the same physical responses as actual exercising. Many athletes and artists are currently improving their performances in this manner with nobility help of hypnotherapists. The spirit ("sub-conscious") does not distinguish

amidst a successfuJ performance (singing. playing sport, typing, lecturing, having sex, etc.) divagate is carried out in one's belief during trance, from one that review carried out physically. To wait stick up for success in the physical performance resolve an act, before you can experience confident of your ability to come after, is backward and dangerous. In significance mediumistic or sleep (hypnotic) mode illustrate trance, the animal spirit with each of its conditioned resistances to hall is lulled to sleep7. This enables us to carry out perfect process inour imagination while in trance. Location the other hand we might fortune or miss our objectives when incredulity physically carry out our actions bankrupt such preparations . If an far-out were to conduct 100 perfect lectures, or golf swings in the captivated imagination, as far as the heart is concerned, the individual has, "in actuality," perfectly performed these acts, flush though they have never been mission physically. When the time comes particular these actions to be done embody, the spirit will guide the target to the flawless execution of nobility acts. This is due to nobility fact that the spirit (the "sub-conscious") is the executor of all activities. We are just not simply low of some esoteric way of practice session. All behaviors, and physical functions muddle controlled by matrices composed of sub-atomic energy/matter. This energy/matter is the meaningful basis of our thoughts. We blight realize that the sounds, and counterparts that are perceived as thoughts, rust be formed from some type engage in energy/matter . It is this energy/matter that we manipulate into images join forces with direct and contro not only welldefined physiological and emotional behavior, but yarn in the social dimension of sketch lives, as well as the globe , as you will verify elude your success in meditation. Assistance Getaway the Deities "Seek assistance from 1 A," "Deity B will protect you," etc. are expressions that can lone be placed in proper perspective Ihrough the Tree of Life. While even-handed Self is located at Sphere 1, and ii. unconditioned andtunqualilied, personalities tv show located at sphere 1 ), other arc conditioned by the set spick and span qualities of the 10th sphere. Disc the 10th sphere (animal spirit, Khaibit) emphasizes the fiery mode (Aries, Somebody, Leo, etc.) of the Life-force, description individual's Ka ( personality), barring affliction, etc., excels at fiery tasks and

challenges. The person is zealous, enterprising, speedy in deciding and acting, short fresh, a leader through force of sum, etc. But this heat, which arranges this type of person successful as challenged to respond in a violent (hot/dry) manner, will be the device of failure when challenged to apt a situation that requires the hush reflection, and flexibility of the aqueous (cold/moist) type of personality, or birth persuasive and clever rhetorical skill make merry the earthy (cold/dry) personality, or like that which challenged to a long protracted challenge that requires the blend of illegitimate and power of the airy8 (bot/moist) personality type. Thus we can shadowy the "indivisible duality" between the bend in half components of our being (hence male is called "an individual"); the Unfriendly, which is the constitutional component, prep added to the person which is the adaptable. This is to say that rectitude constitution, or law of our establish, which is the Self's infinite engine capacity of expression, is united at burn up birth to a finite functional complex--the personality. A fiery person, for exampie, will not find in his identity portfolio the means of genuinely, convincingly, consistently, and most importantly, satisfying make out his nature, being calm and organization in confrontations. Similarly, the watery nark will be afflicted when called understand to be zealous, enterprising, and high-handed. In the archaic mode of spongy, each person must seek assistance expend the "personality com plex"-the deity-that governs the set of behavioral attributes focus are outside of our natal persona . Since we are each by birth in intimate association with only acquaintance of these seven personality types, say publicly pract ice of invoking, or evoking (calling out9) the non-natal personalities, seems to the spiritually immature as venture beings external to ourselves, were creature called upon. We must clarify that point. Although all personalities are primordial in our Self, the other outrage that a person is not hereditary with are outside of her in a straight line. Unfortunately, this subtle arrangement--inside the Cleansing, but outside the person --has prone rise to the widespread belief rove the deities are outside of go bad being.

8. It is important be obliged to separate the Kami tic "airy" emblem which is the hot and dripping principle, from the Chinese (faoist) "air" which corresponds to the Kamitic "earth." Similarly, the latter is not representation same as the Chinese "earth" which corresponds to the Kamitic "ether," additionally known as "akasha,• to use grandeur Hindu term. 9. Note that rectitude terms associated with bringing forth probity deities, •evocation and invocation" are homeproduced on the root, "voe," to phone. It hints at the method be unable to find bringing out the inner powers . They arc called, or chanted choice through the use of hekau (words of power, mantras).

182

To advert a deity, then, is to call out a personality complex out 111 it!. latent state within the Self, very last actualiz.e it as a temporary 11h1ilitute to our natal persona lity. Position fact that the non-natal wrso11ality meet people that is needed to solve position problem must be t.1llcd out hill its latent state within the Anima, underscores the premise or Ihe leading stage of meditation. We cannot profit from the infinite 1i.1lcntial of picture indwelling intelligence if we do shed tears identify with it as l•llr estimate self, which transcends all personality claptrap. We cannot .111 out behavior cheat our personalities that are not inherent to them. Calmness cannot come fatigue of fire, zealousness cannot come 11ut of earth, or water, etc. In this manner, to the degree that we buoy identify with Ausar, we can exhibit personality qualities that are not clan In us. We find many "Chapters of transformations (Kheperu)" in the l'lcad, you follow the truth, which does not elicit any pleasure, which assume fact is strongly opposed by your weakness for the banned it clear , it can be metaphorized defer your heart (will) has been 1110uenced by a forcelcss cause, symbolized indifference the feather of Maat. l'hc help of this concept cannot be overdrawn, as the majority nf people believes that unless an idea has heated or sensual force behind it, speedy should not, or cannot be harass out. But the crux of excitement truth is just the opposite. Phase in matters not how unemotional or 1111pleascd you arc about the truth. On the assumption that it is true, you can wallet must live 11. The absence bank emotional and sensual support for plug idea simply means that our vitality has not yet been conditioned (programmed) to cncrate such energies for kosher. Living an idea, with an knowledge f or the good it gaze at do, will in time lead amount the generation of t'njoyment for give. Last, but not least, the imagery contained in the heart's weight equalling that of a feather, refers ascend the will being under the mfluence of the immaterial, hence weightless significant unconditioned Self, as opposed to goodness very material, hence heavy and accustomed person. It symbolizes, then, that glory individual has succeeded in l'! >lablishing his identity with the indwelling protest (he is Maa kheru).

Likewise this entity is the individual's tone of voice in

God's essence, his established cast with it, qualifies him to wrapping on to the highest three spheres of the Tree of Life in the direction of the divine faculties of omnipotence, supremacy and omnipresence which Man shares qualitatively (i.e., not in magnitude) with influence Supreme Being. Had his heart weighed more than a feather, we would then have evidence that his alertnesses were motivated by the emotional (animal) part of the spirit. In justness Kamitic metapborein of the "Weighing show evidence of the Heart," this failure is followed by the devouring of the interior by the beast Aummaum, which high opinion part crocodile, hippopotamus and lion. Go past is a symbol of the bestiality of our emotions.

Stage 15

Levels 3 and 4 rule the Meditation Process The Last Stages The successful return of description identity from the person to probity 1111lwcUing intelligence, symbolized in the short of the "Weighing of tlw llcart" test, enables consciousness to rise allot the divine parts of 1111 :.pi.rit. From another perspective it can endure said that the ability to 1p.11nrc (Men Ab) the behavioral suggestions become peaceful compulsions from 1hr lower part ferryboat being--the person--has enabled the individual consign to 11d1icve the ability to fully transform on a thought at the ban 111 ull others, or to entirely ignore all thoughts and sensory stimuli. The .1hility to concentrate on individual thought for as long as compulsory is the 1"1\cntial requirement for rank work to be done in dignity 7th and 8th 11111r,cs (spheres 3 and 2), and the ability border on ignore all thoughts is the 1 . cnce of the work attack the last two stages of rumination .

Level 3 of the Contemplation Process, Stage 7, Sphere 3 Rendering third sphere is the seat adherent the creative units of spiritual crush that are responsible for all produce the manifestations in the mental .t nC with the sunrise, peak go in for midday, drop below their mean daring act \llO'>Ct, and bottom out at twelve o`clock. It is well known to Amour .,, !enlists that all of go off activities (physical labor, mental labor, nautical port l11 .1incd thinking, right-brained thinking, rubbing away, sleeping, etc.) have Iheir best mount worst times of the day, which times are inherently 1 dated tender the forces governing the rise challenging fall in temperature, pulse, and distinction diurnal or circadian "course of justness sun." Incidentally, lwcause the people elder the ancient Black civilizations synchronized thc events in their lives with these cycles, ignorant Westerners 1ucuscd them make known worshipping the sun, the moon turf the stars, which .ire, in aristotelianism entelechy, means of keeping track of expert variety of cycles1. They were anticipated upon, not worshipped, with the reveal of understanding how to harmonize honesty day to day activities of go off lives wil h the cycles they represent. Living in accordance to these cycles place limitations and disciplinary mixture upon us. It is interesting distinct note that cycles, limitations and schooling are all saturnial .:ywords, and Saturn is the planetary correspondence to high-mindedness third 11phcre. The objective of nobleness first meditation at this stage hype to go into trance with excellence heka Aung Kring2, while visualizing bump into as h.iwk-headcd, and holding the Uas scepter, a flail and a dislike (See the Seker card). The Uas scepter symbolizes the happiness and swimmingly l. Of course, it is besides well known that they are holdings of radiations that affect •ll')l"Jmc,and

being secondary from due attention to the flap and the crook. On one leve the flail symbolize the expansive, externalizing hot (yang) portion of the sequence of manifestation, while the crook, illustriousness internalizing cool (yin) side. Keeping them in balance leads to well utilize and success. In addition, the flutter symbolizes the harshness with which awe must deal with ourselves for desecration our pledges of discipline, while rectitude crook corresponds to the gentle reflective and ritualistic methods to the dress end. Success with them qualifies entrenched for the roles of governing focus on ruling others. The second set elder meditations involves the heka and notating of the deity governing the musing objective, as indicated by the cassandra. While Nefert-Ra invoked Het-Heru during picture third stage, emphasizing her enjoyment exercise the objective sought (she saw myself enjoying the baby she wants make somebody's acquaintance have), here she will go bite-mark trance with the Het-Heru heka give up your job the aim of becoming the idol for the sake of spiritual happening. I.e., the interest here is mass a personal one, as one has died to personal needs. Once put off has succeeded in manifesting the hero at this level, one can trigger its forces to assist others spartan need, or to serve as come to an end earthly vehicle (avatar) for the last wishes of God. I.e., the Supreme Personage will use your spirit for trespass its plan in the world. Slaughter differences regarding levels of spiritual get up, the procedure here is similar meet the "ritual system of the afflicted" commonly practiced throughout Africa, and initiations into becoming a (living) shrine personage a deity. In the ritual dig up the afflicted, once a person has succeeded in healing herself through class power of a particular deity, she must train to become a temple of that deity so that she can serve as a healer lowly others. Hence, the invocation at that stage is to become a "power" (shekem) of the deity for dignity service of others, while the solicitation at the 3rd stage was application the sake of one's personal needs.

Level 3 of the Meditation Occasion, Stage 8, Sphere 2 The Fold up Fundamental Actions of the Mind Outlook vs. Thought Drin In our "normal" waking state, on one hand, minimize are constantly streaming into our field of awareness telling us what high opinion and what is not, or characteristic of what to do and what keen to do. We call this "thought drift" (or unwilled thought activity). Pursuit the other hand, we are in every instance employing our will to select existing arrange these

2 02

1hn11 prerogative into meaningful units, or to negative or sanction the 111.1cstions, or impulses to act according to our unlearned sense of logic, 1•1111litioning and imitative store of information . We phone this t hmking" or willed expose to danger activity. Although it does not trouble us .11 t ws point, blush is important to note that principal people fail to 1l1i.1tnguish between magnanimity uncritical acceptance of thought drifts, famous 1111 discriminating activity of willed sense activity. Only the latter I assessment proper. Both modes have their dilemmas. It is the 1111crit ical attitude of thought drifts in the "normal" waking state •lml we label dark and illogical behavior . Willed tending 1tivity, on the other hand, levelheaded no better than the information think about it it l 11lu;s as its provisions. You know the old story, specialized, but not un·cssarily true. Ultimately, habitual doesn't matter how logical the cogitation is, or li11w pragmatic the message. All items of information are inept 111orc than labels, definitions and descriptions-that is, symbols of 11h1cctive realities, final not the realities themselves. While they are 1110% trustworthy for thinking increase in value closed systems with non v111 trustworthy components (making or fixing machine electronic 1pplia nces, houses, etc.), they possess a delusory effect 0n thinking put into operation 11 uations in which the aplomb of the components are subject get in touch with c h"nge as the relationship in the middle of them changes. As a result, justness vc 1haJ and graphic symbols which are the foundation of our sense •ll'liviLies, because of their inherent precisely nature, cannot cover all .1r.pccts precision relational eventualities. These relational events funding none 11t hcr than the issues of living itself; economics, spirituality, well-ordered lworetical sciences, philosophy, psychology, sociology, etc. For 1•iu1mple, what or who assessment man? Is he a "rational animal?" Did he l'ICcnd from the apes, or descend from God? If spend thoughts fail to communicate to flush the knowledge of r l•ality escort the higher realms of life, regardless then can we arrive at much k nowledge? A very important inkling can be found in the branch of knowledge o[ 111cditation which has been touted as the means to acquiring slenderness. Meditation is a process of "making the mind blank," we are booming. And this is the goal focus we have been seeking through excellence preceding I stages. to "make nobility mind blank" is to still character thought process. l'houghts that drift take must be ignored, and the dedicated impulse to c:xcrt the will drop directing thought activity must also distrust ignored. This leaves us in top-hole state in which we are devoted spectators to the parade of watch over, feelings and physical percepts streaming chomp through the •,phcre of awareness. Kept form long enough, we arrive at fastidious point where the thought drift operation comes lo a halt. If awe bad been 2 03

ignoring edge your way thoughts save one, we transcend importance and gain full insight into glory objective reality that it represents, stream if we were ignoring all non-observance, then we would arrive at adroit point in which all that awareness could be conscious of, is interrupt being conscious. The former is thoughtfulness, and the latter is experience domination Self-the indwelling source of consciousness final intelligence. The meditation at this blow things out of all proportion involves going into trance with rendering heka of Tehuti, "Aung Hung Shring," while visualizing yourself as the idol (See the Tebuti card) holding spruce pen to a blank sheet shambles paper, but not writing. Keeping rank eyes open and directed toward prestige center of the forehead at rendering level of the eye brow volition declaration help to keep the attention closely on the meditation objective (this assay called "tratakam"). Before meditating you discretion decide that your meditation objective decline to come out of the refurbish of thought free waking trance be on a par with insight into a particular subject. Play a role the same manner that people walk to sleep with a problem, remarkable awaken with a solution without taking accedence gone through the logical sequential nurture process of the "normal" waking make, we go into waking trance motivate still the thought processes and revenue out of trance with the response. This is the process of "enlightenment, or "kensho" as it is known as in Zen, or Khut as plan is called in the Kamitic aid. Sages and prophets use it dressingdown arrive at their knowledge of deed. It transcends studying, researching, thinking, detail and all possible forms of somewhere to live the mind. It is a half a mo into the omniscience of the inborn intelligence, our true self, which survey our individuated share in the convinced of the Supreme Being. Incidentally, cry out messages from such oracles as description I Ching, Ifa and the Metu Neter oracle given in this emergency supply proceed from this part of sketch spirit. They are the means marketplace tapping into our indwelling omniscience, provide lieu of our inability to right the demands of this stage be totally convinced by meditation, which needless to say, testament choice take a great deal of put off, patience and work. Proficiency in that stage of meditation makes the mortal a living oracle, otherwise known primate a sage or a prophet. n

Level 3 of the Meditation Shape, Stage 9, Sphere 1 In birth preceding stage, all@ioughts save one (the image of Tehuti, or the belongings to be known) were ignored as the meditation process. When one be accessibles out of the trance it induces, the expectation of having a bulletin is often fulfilled. The meditation officer this stage involves going into cataleptic with the heka of Ausar "Aung Ausar Hung." There are no visualizations or

204

'l•·ctations. The attention give something the onceover focused at the area about authentic inch lw·ucatb the navel to reach the breathing. Tratakam is also 1 111plnycd. Eventually, all thoughts, and be aware of of the body, 1 11111tions, flourishing environment fall away, leaving our undiplomatic 11111cious of being conscious. This psychoanalysis the direct experience (111·.pcrieoce) o.f left over true (inner) Self,- Ausar. The very we repeat the experience, the auxiliary we find 1111ri.elves effortlessly detached shake off the lower part of our creature in 11111 day to day journals. In other words we become distinction mummy i\uar; decayless, immovable by feelings, etc. 1

Level 4 of loftiness Meditation Process, Stage 10, "0" That is a subtle continuation of influence preceding stage. When wt: attain dressingdown the realization of Self, at event 9, our consciousness of

tiling skilful is characterized by a sense pattern being focused in the 1r ntcr of the consciousness experience. In that stage the '1111sciousness of being purposeful is decentralized , ever expansive, lioundless and diffused. Thus we realize Patanjali's definition of \ uga, which "is attained from the inhibition of leadership mental 1 ntrgy/mattcr (citta). Then character Seer is clothed in his required 11,11ure." We have pushed our journey of Self to its most secret inner 1n·css, which in the Kamitic tradition is called Amen3 and Nu. We have thus become Neb whoop it up Tcher. SUMMARY THE STAGES OF Probation AND MEDITATION AND SOCIAL ORGANIZATION Scoff at this point it should already elect clear, if it were not so far k11own, that the principles discussed strange chapter 7 to the present rmbody the fundamental requirements that individuals ought to meet in urdcr to participate harmoniously in society.

Concerning people's participation in the government make famous lht' traditional African nation, it survey important to fully understand Lhr queer governmental system developed in ancient Continent - llw Divine Kingship. Central tote up the system is the concept delay it is nnt the king who leads the people, but the Nonpareil Being. Even Western spiritualists who greet that the true Self of human race U. the Supreme Being have plead for been able to understand this fall. The: man (and all others- excitement and deceased t) who will commandment the people must be initiated penetrate the ability to serve as unmixed vehicle through which the Supreme Generate and its agencies (the Deities) volition declaration govern the people. All leaders corrosion, therefore, be masters of divine carefulness, anJ priests of the shrines deadly the Deities. I will quote go over the top with Life in Ancient Egypt, by Adolf Erman, Dover Press, which will prove wrong very enlightening. On the 14th disseminate Paophi in the 46th year illustrate Ramses II, we find the staff of the court consisted of: "Bechenchons, the first prophet of Amon. Ueser-mont, the prophet of Amon. Ram, significance prophet of Amon. The prophet Uennofre of the Temple of Mut. Nobleness prophet Amen-em-'en of the Temple taste Cbons. The (holy father?) Amen-em-opet designate the Temple of Amon. Amenhotep, rank priest and reader of Amon. Extensive, the priest and reader of Amon. The priest Huy of the Holy place of Amon. The accountant Huy designate the court of justice of say publicly town." In this case therefore miracle find nine priests and but sharpen layman, i.e., the permanent scribe confront the court, who reported the disputing. The author's phrase "In this case" compares this composition of the importune to that @'a later time (Ramses IX, 20th Dynasty) in which significance court wa predominantly made up wheedle laymen. When we compare both periods we find that the latter corresponds to the beginning of the specify of the Kamitic civilization. A unexceptional deal of the administration of authority kingdom had fallen into the work employees of foreign soldiers who had back number brought in as mercenaries to standard the

THE ORACLES

On the most general level, oracles are means of ommun icating large spiritual agencies. On the highest order, such ommunications take place with character wisdom faculty (sphere 2, ehuti) invoke the spirit, through waking trance. That is the skill possessed by forecaster and sages. On the second maximum level, mmunications take place with loftiness same part of the spirit because of he casting of lots. These "lots" are symbolic representations of the 1asic categories into which the entire course of reality can be divided. Irritate oracles are means of communicating defer the other Deities, tnd lower metaphysical agencies through mediumistic trance or authority asting of Jots.

In past chapters, we looked at the process give the brush-off which he world comes into utilize, through which order is established sit maintained, the stages of initiation boss meditation, and so on. Not embarrass did we trace the sequence some unfoldment of events, but we further ssigned to each shaping factor practised place in time and in rendering hierarchy :space) of being. Thousands cancel out years ago, Africans discovered that government system of classification and order could be represented through 1mmerical (ordinal give orders binary) symbols, graphic archetypes, etc.. fhey further discovered that these representations, like that which onventionalized and arranged into a synthetic.al whole, could be Jsed by authority indwelling intelligence to communicate with birth :icrsonality by projecting these symbols anxiety dreams, or by dra'Ni9g the upon to their physical counterparts at disparaging moments (omens). fhey further discovered ensure if these symbols were casted include such a 11anncr as to empower them to fall freely, or go on a trip be gathered in a non nanipulative manner, the indwelling intelligence, acting evidence the ife-force, would manipulate the notating into a pattern that would put across its message. It should not suspect surprising to find that the conceptual symbols Jsed in such oracles by the same token the Ifa of the Yorubas (Afa of the Ewes), and .h house Tao Te Ching, and with fiercely modifications, the I Ching, are diminution )ased on binary mathematical principles, which are the basis of the 11achine language used by computers (used as a rule in orecasting!). The Metu Neter sibyl is composed of the combined nfluences of the five primary binary tally, and 14 archetypes (70 2 09

cards) of the shaping forces put a stop to all events in/as the world. These archetypes are the 14 pieces authored by the dismemberment of the intent of Ausar, and are related take in hand the 14 kau of Ra. Overfull fact, it would be correct tackle think of oracles as spiritual computers. They enable us to discover what shaping factors are the key effectors of a given situation. All wander reasoning, which we must use handily, can do for us is curb indicate plausibilities and probabilities . Predominant for that it must have precedents, or some means of identifying grandeur possible shaping factors in a phase. Oracles enable us to raise plausibilities and possibilities to the level tip facts. An oracle can tell jagged at the moment of birth, deviate child "X" will grow up give somebody the job of be a leader or a sponger, unless he does exactly so snowball so. Before you even got misinform know him, the oracle can relate you what kinds of problems boss about can expect, what virtues must aside cultivated, etc. if you were survey get married. It is clear confirmation that those who are against position use of oracles, do not fully understand how and why they rush used. Io fact, most people quash not truly know what they drain. There are a few well put historical instances in the lives be the owner of Westerners regarding the oracles. Before nobleness advent of the monarchical period agreement Israel, a very rudimentary oracle, picture Urim and Thummim was consulted. That oracle that could only answer definitely or no was the means, according to 1Samuel 28:6, to consult say publicly Will of Yahweh. In Ezra 2:63 a cultic problem is postponed till such time as a priest of the oracle bottle be consulted. II Mace. 15, informs us that Hamman secured the assuagement of the Jews exiled in Empire, by casting the lots to optate the day for attacking the Persians. The latter were slaughtered. This serve is today commemorated, although with out veil casted over it, in honourableness Jewish feast of Purim (purim source "lots"). Another account of the Somebody use of lots is given thrill Acts 1:26, where we are shown that Matthias was chosen through interpretation casting of lots over Joseph Barsabbas, to take Judas' (who betrayed Jesus) place. Incidentally, it is important cheerfulness remember, or note that Jesus, captain his disciples never called themselves Christians. The appellation or concept did arrange even exist in Jesus' time. They were Jews, but that is regarding story. Back to the oracles. In the matter of are many more such references manner the Old Testament for those who care to search for them. Above indicating events and occurrences that barren "around the corners" from our come up to faculty, some oracles like Ifa nearby the Metu Neler are capable sharing indicating which word of power or

210

Deity is in charge resembling the situation al hand. Since ethics word of power originates, and dash the situation, word-shipping it (awakening extract cultivating its power) enables us apropos work on the situation from leadership causal level. Otherwise we must duct backward from effects to causes.

Chapter 17

THE DEITIES OF Nobleness METU NETER AMEN Amen means "concealed." It is the Kamitic counterpart provide the term "Subjective" as we own acquire used it in this book. Beckon corresponds to the essential nature run through the Supreme Being, which is primacy same as the essence of Mao's being. It is our unmanifested, unmanifestable unconditioned Self-That which is the maximum source of life and consciousness. Endure is the unseen and unseeable think it over looks out into the Objective Duchy of spirits, thoughts, feelings, and fleshly phenomena. We must return our feature of consciousness back to it chunk the cessation of all thought awareness. Once we have established this subliminal point as our place of being--i.e., living beyond emotional influences--we will get in touch with to the state of Hetep. That is a state in which surprise are able to fully ignore transfix emotions that may rise into lastditch awareness, and thus attain to out peace that cannot be disturbed wedge any challenge in life. In dignity Hindu tradition it is called Parabrahm Sarvikalpa Nirvana. This state of intervening peace is the prime foundation choose the functioning of the healing functions of the life-force (Ra), and review the source of all spiritual last . AUSAR

"And God said, license to us make man in our lay aside likeness." Now, it does not blunt much to realize that the agreement of God in which man comment made, according to Genesis 1:26, cannot be the multitude of human frailties and sinfulness. Neither can it fleece the corporeal creature of earthly environment, nor the varieties of qualities focus make up our personalities . Emancipation as it is said, "Make gather together graven images of God, thy Lord." How then are God and Public servant similar? As a drop of drinking-water and the ocean are the exact qualitatively, but different in magnitude, and over are man and God. This reality is expressed in the Bantu's (a major group of Blacks in Southmost Africa) categorical name for both Divinity and Man-"Muntu" (of which Bantu anticipation the plural). It is the equivalent with the name that the Kamitians use for themselves-"Kam-Au." "Kam" means murky, and "Au"--the root of

lhc mantra Aung, Ausar (God/man)--was used jab denote lhcmselves. But this Self short vacation ours which is the likeness magnetize the Supreme Being is, as incredulity have so much spoken of crucial earlier chapters, the indwelling intelligence tutorial all of the functions of colour spirit, and through it the "involuntary" vital functions of the body. Incredulity cannot leave this section without throwing some light on the Deity's nickname. To this date no Egyptologist stool explain the meaning of, or base of its name. The problem has its roots in the fact stroll the deity's name is not commonJy written with alphabetic hieroglyphs, but take on a "graphic metaphoric way"; an vision above or beneath a seat, which does not provide much of boss clue to the true pronunciation. Tho' no one has ever given trig good explanation, it has been ordinarily rendered as Asar (pronounced Euh-Sehr). Rendering seal, which is called "ast" (pronounced Eust) is, by "punning derivation" chimpanzee Budge aptly observes 1, used side represent the female aspect of integrity Deity. Thus they call her "Ast" (pronounced Eust). But no one get close say why is a seat unreceptive as a metaphor for her, ray if this is the true elocution of her name. Let's first give out with the meaning of the symbolisation. As the ninth sphere corresponds respect the first stage of the out of a job of spiritual development, it is glory foundation (Yesod) or throne or situation appointment of spiritual evolution, meditation and apprenticeship . All acts of the longing begins with mediumistic trance. When astonishment recall the work to be worn-out in the first stage we longing remember that it consists in cosy into mediumistic trance with the composed of returning our identity to grandeur indwelling intelligence. The seat, then, task symbolic of mediumistic trance, and say publicly eye symbolizes the indwelling intelligence. Awe must take a clue from righteousness Canaanite Kabalistical tradition, in which authority ninth sphere is called Yesod, which means "foundation, seat," yet, the god of the sphere is called Sbaddai El Chai. Similarly, in the Kamitic tradition, the Goddess of the ordinal sphere (Isis,- the Greek name) evolution called a "seat" (Ast), by non-literal punning. We understand the metaphor, however what is the pun based on? In Budge's Egyptian Hieroglyphic Dictionary, event 36a, we find the word "Aus" (Au is pronounced as the romance "Eu," water!), which denotes the Tertiary person, singular female. It corresponds understand the Coptic "Es," which has excellence same grammatical role, and is very the root of "Esse," the Christian name for the deity! On leaf 36a, we also find one quite a lot of the few alphabetic spellings of glory name: "Aus-t" (pronounced AEuset). On attack 36b we find Ausars

(AEuscrs). Mint confirmation comes from the fact rove in the Cosmological system of Annu (Heliopolis) of the Ra priesthood show consideration for the Vth Dynasty, the female duplication of Tern or Temu (corresponding lying on Ausar) is called Auasasit (AEusausit). Miracle are just not indulging here entertain scholarly gymnastics. The names Auset forward Ausar conceal the heka "Aung," gore which they are invoked. We take seen how Tehuti conceals "Hung," Seker (Sekr Ta-Sekri) conceals the heka "Kri"; Heru (Hru) conceals the heka "Hring," and so on. When we deem the fact that these very unchanged hekau turn up in Dravidian Bharat in association to Goddesses that equal the qualities of the Kamitic Deities-point for point , then we oxidize realize that we have unearthed unadulterated principle that we must pay cool great deal of attention to. TEHUTI A collection of data, however unvarnished, is of little use until university teacher elements are arranged according to their relationship with each other and high-mindedness whole of which they are accomplishments. For example, until Lavoisier (1743-1794), fro was no science of chemistry regular though there was a vast abundance of chemicals in use; sulfuric unvoiced, nitric acid, silver nitrate, chlorine, etc. and the recipes for making them. It was only when Lavoisier revealed that all atoms had a well-defined weight and configuration (number of protons, electrons, etc.), and were thus roundabout route to exact measurement, that the study of chemistry was born. If ethics collection of divine laws and abstract counsels could also be subj methodical to some sorl of objective ascertainment, then the providing of guidelines fo r living could also be raised to a science of living. Alight such a means of measurement has already been in place in Person spirituality for over 10,000 years. Hub other words, unlike the biblical aid, the Kamitic spiritual tradition is slogan composed of a collection of metaphysical guidelines; like chemistry and physics, cast down principles are each assigned to far-out specific category, which elevates it lend your energies to a strict science of living. Authority ability to qualify life's experiences existing its spiritual guidelines, through quantification famous measurement, is the property of influence wisdom faculty Tehuti. One of integrity most important rituals and spiritual encipher of the Kamitic system was entitled the "Utchau Metut"-the "Weighing of Words."

214

The name Tehuti is compounded of "Tehu"2 which means "lo measure" and "ti," which means "dual." That name reveals a very

2. With is a great deal or question regarding the correct pronunciation of that Deity's name due to the truth that in m06t cases the Idol is represented non phonetically. Phonetically knock down has been rendered as "fchehuti," "Djehuti," and Tehuti (this •t• is top-notch soft son of "d"). First blond all we find that the Egyptian language (ancient Sahidic) which is justness survival of the Ancient Egyptian tongue docs not translate lhis word deal with either of the letters "ch" (chei), or "dj" (djandjia), or "tch" (tchima), hut with •t• (tau). Dropping birth final "i," a common linguistic eq>erience, they named it "faut," or "rout," which is what would be turn out well from "fehuti." An enensive etymological glance at reveals the same results. The Bohairic Coptic rcnden; 11 "Thauout•; the Script, "Thot•; the Babylonian, "fihut"; and dignity Greek, and l'hoenicians rendered it "Thout.• None of them translate it find out a "dj,• or "tch" even !hough they had the means of experience so. The spelling "Djehut i" belongs to the l'lolemaic (Greek occupation divest yourself of Kamit) period. It i.s a "punning• contraction of "Djed + Tehuti" characteristic of the stability (cessation) of the go with processes which lead to the display of wisdom. "fchehuti" (old and order kingdom) is a contraction of "fchet + Tehuti" signifying the fact deviate the word "tchet• (like the 1lebrew "DBR") means both "word," and "physical thing• when understood from the angle of the divine will-Tchuti-whosc verbal emanations (hekau) arc the causes of facts things. It was also used type connect the wisdom of the demiurge with the serpent "tche-t" which symbolizes the aspect of Ra which equitable the source of the hekau (see kundalini as source of "vak," illustriousness word), as well as eternity. Coarse punning, a prom inent feature bequest African linguistic, they also related •tehu," meaning "to measure" with "tekh," advantage "a weight measure" through "tekhnu," unadulterated bird resembling the Ibis, which problem the totem of Tehuti. The naked truth that "fehu" is integrally tied clasp with the idea or measurement stool be seen from the fact depart the root of the name plump for Maat, which is the "sister• characteristic Tehuti is also related to evaluation. The hieroglyphic symbol for "Maa• very represents a cubit (18 inches), which is one or the main seemly of measurement in the Kamitic ravine. We see, therefore, that on suspend hand, that those who call prestige deity "fchehuti," or "Djehuti " break up so because they have failed clobber understand that these terms simply couple the deity to the meditation system underlying its manifestation (Djed), and righteousness life-force (fchet) which is the provenance of the word as a carrier of power, while, on the assail hand, the use of the term "fehuti," which is based on deliver etymological study, fully summarizes the deity's function. The etymological principles governing decency Kamitic language, and all others go for that matter, prove that the Deity's name cannot be a compounding prime "Tchet + Huti," or "Djed + Huti," as all meanings of "Huti" (officer, fear), or "Hu + Ti," yield fortuitous meanings. They arc leadership types of words created via puns which is so widespread in Continent. The insight thus gained teaches depart wherever knowledge, and wisdom is supposed, there must be an objective prevailing standard by

advance state realize scientific sophistication of the Kamitic elegance which cannot be doubted from distinction fact that they had invented significance system of quadratic equations which equitable the foundation of the mathematical ignoble of science (the equations used arrangement chemistry, physics, economics, etc.). That astrophysics (Kabala) was related to a pathway of equations can be deduced go over the top with the Arabic name for algebra-"Al Jabar mu Quabalah.• The dual factors coarse which all ideas and concepts tv show weighed are based on their related place in time (temporal, cyclical) obscure space (hierarchic). We come across, house example, in the Chinese oracle party Wisdom, the I Ching, that "such and such" a thing is find time for be done or not because uphold its relationship to the time involve the cycle (year, month, zenith, etc.). Incidentally, there might have been dreadful cultural exportations of the Kamitic fragility tradition to China. Let's start do better than noting the similarity between the seat of the Deity's name, "tehu," topmost the Coptic derivation of the title of Tehuti, "Tout," which are publication similar to the Chinese term connote their wisdom tradition, the "Tao." Grandeur foundation of the Chinese oracle, primacy I Ching is composed of grandeur eight Pa Kua. Similarly, Tehuti's flimsiness system is also based on public housing ogdad representing the primal powers gaze at the eight cardinal points. The sign for the nome ("province") of Tehuti in Kamit was represented by team a few broken lines superimposed. I Ching practitioners will immediately recognize the correspondence feign the yin lines, and Tao Want ad Ching diviners will recognize in be a triumph the 41st figure, which is blue blood the gentry main figure of that oracular usage. The Utchau Metut Spatial - Gradable Dimension The "Utchau Metut," generally translated as the "Weighing of Words," level-headed best translated as the evaluation cherished concepts, ideas, beliefs, behavioral shaping items, and spiritual practices. It corresponds respect the use of the Tree appropriate Life as a device for

which to measure the claim. This thought found its way into the specialistic meaning of the tenn "science," which is the Latin for "to know" (scire). When we realize that by reason of there were no dictionaries, or encyclopedias in ancient times, the etymological dealings between words were kept very contain , thus making them stores carry-on a gold mine of infonnation. They conceal depth meanings, and words nominate power which was well known provision Jewish Kabalists who sought by diverse devices-gematria, etc. to uncover them grasp the scriptures.

cJtcgorizing and evaluating our beliefs, mental and spiritual !unctions, etc. By doing for the intellectual shaping factors of our l stop by (beliefs, behavioral mechanisms, etc.) what leadership periodical table of clements does read chemistry, the Tree of Life adjusts possible the creation of a body of knowledge of behavior. I.e., it elevates conjecture, spiritual culture, psychology, etc. into interpretation realm of science by providing male with a means of quantifying queen ideas and beliefs regarding these subjects. For example: The arrival at a- conclusion or judgement without going read a thinking process, that is, purpose direct perception of the reality strike instead of manipulating the symbols an eye to the reality is called wisdom. Awe classify this mental process at ethics second sphere. The arrival at skilful conclusion or judgement through the touch of symbols embodying abstract analogies admiration called :iynthesis. It is related transmit the 4th sphere. The arrival irate a conclusion or judgement through stimulant, deduction and inference is called rayllogistic logi and is related to grandeur 8th sphere. Not only has ethics Tree allowed us to categorize drill of these three modes of willing operations, it has also allowed make difficult to assign a value to receiving. Since the Tree of Life's excellent of values flows from 0-the utmost, to 10-the lowest, then wisdom stick to the highest of the three, followed by r-.ynthesis, and in last ill-omened, syllogistic thinking. We can verify that in life. As a product suggest syllogistic (Cartesian) logical thinking (8th sphere), western orthodox medicine attempts to sordid one to one cause and impact relationships for illnesses. Specific agent Validate causes specific health disorders Y, thence, specific remedy Z must be inoperative. Illnesses can be made to surface so specific, that the same streak will be given different names being it manifests in different parts line of attack the body (E.g., otitis, iritis, nephropathy, colitis; lumbago, rheumatism, etc.), and burst many cases, treated differently. Because remedies are similarly considered, Western physicians hold fallen into the delusory belief train in "side effects." Since their logical honour hinking is done through symbols (definitions, etc.), which can only embody unornamented minor part of the realities they are representing. they fail lo catch on that the remedies, of themselves, idea not limited to the effects go wool-gathering exist in their minds. Neither, dangle the disorders caused by the free agents that they have identified. That is the primary cause of patronize of the medical malpractices that recapitulate rampant throughout western medicine. Since assorted disorders can have the same causal cause, it would make more diplomacy to tie them together through deflate abstract name, than to separate them as Westerners have done. The preceding has been done in the Asian medical system.

217

All disorders try given the same name, regardless many where they manifest in the entity, or of their outer appearances. Clod harmony with this, the same countermeasure is given in each case. That unitary approach, which obviously, fosters distressed in thinking, a greater understanding pointer accuracy in evaluating and treating illnesses is the syntbeticaJ approach of excellence 4th sphere. The approach of high-mindedness second sphere is even greater. Lacking in thinking-i.e., manipulating the vast set presumption medical data-the second sphere is helpless to arrive at an understanding living example the shaping factors contributing to righteousness creation, and healing of an pandemonium. In addition, as the second, quarter, and eighth spheres correspond to distinction eighth, sixth, and second stages outandout initiation, respectively, it is evident turn greater spiritual and mental abilities apprehend required for the wisdom approach, charge so on. Every practice in being can be, thus, categorized and evaluated. Regarding "mental dynamics" and behavioral reshaping methods, we can arrive at character following classifications and evaluations.

'There are two forms of working with the heka (mantra yoga). Small advantages can be carried out by working with words of capabilities wilhout subjecting oneself to a general of spiritual development. This ii, excellence 10th sphere level. The true added full power of hekau can lone he attained at the 7th plane of initiation (3rd sphere). Classification, duct Evaluation (Utchau) of Life Problems Shrinkage of life's problems can be determined to one of three fundamental levels. The first (and lowest) level does not arise from conditionings that rush opposed to our identification with Ausar and l be laws of Maat, but to to our conditionings delay are opposed to the contemplated together, or from the dormancy of influence spiritual power lo achieve the objective. They can, thus, be overcome stay away from transcending one's lower being. Success stare at be achieved by the use cataclysm such approaches that involve the overcast of Bach flower remedies, Bhakti yoga, counselling, creative visualization, Dianetics, herbal enchantment (esoteric use of herbs), animal immolated rituals, hypnotherapy, dianetics, mediumistic invocation entity deities and ancestors, prayer, psychocyberoetics, convinced thinking, sermonizing, crystal working, etc. Primacy second level of problems arises escape conditionings that are opposed to doing identification with Ausar and the hard-cover of Maat. Even if we be born with the ability to achieve the aim, success depends on living truth old the crossroads, which is the metaphysical mechanism for transcending our anti-spiritual conditionings. This type of problem can lone be solved by the application vacation Men Ab. The third level time off problems arises from the dormancy identical our higher faculties (spheres 1 - 3). Can you be motivated hard by develop your spiritual powers for nobleness sake of discovering and aiding God's divine plan for the world? That might require you to die have a high opinion of the vast amount of painfully transmitted copied information, and to the interest increased from the heavy investment in your earthly social undertakings. Can you fluffy why Chinnamasta, the Indus Kush (Dravidian) Goddess of Wisdom, bolds her divided head in her left hand, crucial a sword in the right? Nearby why three streams of blood go with the flow from her headless neck to other half lips? A hint: three is Sebek's number. From the foregoing we stool see how the Tree of Convinced serves as a measuring rod, tidy slide rule if you will, presage the evaluation and classification of medal ideas, concepts and practices in growth. Events can also be classified celebrated evaluated according to their relative stub in time. In chapter 15 amazement discussed the

cyclical log governing the functions of the item and the spirit for the vindication of order. In many of honourableness past chapters we discussed the abstraction or hierarchical ordering of ideals, inexperienced guidelines, behavioral expectations, spiritual training tell off virtues. It is the absence near these tools for measuring our substance and values, why societies have suit bogged down in a quagmire accept opinions and ever increasing social dismay and conflicts. Who among them even-handed fostering the acquisition of the like of reality by the stilling show evidence of the thinking mechanism? Yet, as incredulity saw in past chapters, this abridge the only way of knowing relax - of arriving at the point measurement of ideas. Of finding nobility "categorical imperative• that eluded the just what the doctor ordered German philosopher Immanuel Kant to rendering very end of his frustrated growth. This categorical imperative, this yardstick line of attack life is none other than integrity Tree of Life itself. Wisdom even-handed achieved when consciousness, in considering keep you going issue, flows through its 32 paths plus "O" to achieve a signification. The beka (word of power) put off corresponds to this mental faculty give something the onceover "Hung," which is concealed in magnanimity name Tehuti. Incidentally, the Buddhist overseas it from the Dravidian wisdom Lead actress Chinnarnasta and synchretized it to their so-called "Dhyani (celestial) Buddha" Aksobhya. Beckon is of great importance to exactly on the fact that man cannot save himself from the mere office of his will. It must give somebody the job of guided by Tehuti. This is symbolized by Heru's dependence on Tehuti criticism defeat Set. Inour day to dowry existence, this translates into our accomplishment of salvation by perfecting the rumination skill of acquiring knowledge of naked truth through stilling the thought processes. Thrill is not a process of headland and logical manipulation of information derived through study or observation, but disposed of reception of the omniscience help the intelligence dwelling within our personage (our true self, Ausar) that practical in charge of directing all pay no attention to our physiological and spiritual functions. Argue with is important to realiz.e, that wilt physiological functions do not originate flat our physical organs, but in excellence life-force-Ra. It is important to appreciate that by stilling the thought processes (logical rationalizations, etc.) we CAlJl way in a power dwelling within our turn out that is one with the deific entity, that the Kamitians said function have determined the revolution of rectitude celestial bodies, the seasons, and keeps all manifestations in equilibrium. This interior intelligence also enables us to up-front, protect and develop

1he full potentiaJ of our life-force. Require this respect Tehuti is called influence "mind" and "eye" (utchat) of Addition. It is Tehuti that guides wild to the lifestyle and actions become absent-minded enable us to maintain the stability hctween the two metabolic (the cardinal combatants Heru/anabolic, and Scl/catabolic) processes attention to detail the life-force (Ra). Last but classify least, we must note that bring to an end high oracles-Ifa, I Ching and blue blood the gentry Metu Neter wcre received by forecaster and sages while meditating at glory second :-;phere level.

SEKE R Seker (the 3rd sphere of the Put of Life) is the divine flair that is in charge of class life-force (Ra), which is the developmental base of all things in illustriousness world. Although the source of test is infinite, each entity is authorized to share in its infinity job a series of cycles of births. Each entity is thus allotted trig finite portion of this life-force moderately good a time, for its adventure display the world3. This recycling principle overns the cycles of birth, growth, corruption, death, rebirth and on. The individual behaves in this manner in core with the divine intention of directing man to the realiz.ation of top divinity. Would most people bother come to get develop themselves, and exert themselves granting they were to be born go out with full functionality (as many reptiles become calm lower creatures are), eternal youth allow indestructibility? We are thus spurred investigation to exert ourselves in our childhood to provide for the days cruise will surely come when we inclination be incapable of doing so, become calm of course by the ultimate, which is death. The subjection of description existence of all things to stop-go revolutions, which is governed by glory "deity" (divine faculty) Khepere, divides their life term into two fundamentaJ phases. Birth (rebirth)/growth, and decay/death (rebirth space the plane of origin!). Thus phenomenon achieve an infinitude of experiences have a medical condition an infinite chain of finite existences. The phase of birth (rebirth) run through under the dominion of Khepere (Aima4, the fertile mother in the Semite tradition), while the phase of infection and death is symbolized by loftiness Hennu or

Khepere or Alina brings ending things into manifesta tion through character 50 sound units or power resident in the 3rd sphere.

At thls leve these spiritual intelligence do not manifest the things cherished which they are the germs, nevertheless the underlying structure (divine plan6) turn provides the order governing the trustworthy interaction of the forces shaping high-mindedness formation of things, and their transmission. These structures appoint the places domestic space and time ordering all manifestations. Incidentally, because its creative function corresponds to the female gender, which loftiness Canaanite tradition supports (the Goddess Aitna), thls deity often appears (possesses) make real its female form when invoked. Despite the fact that such, her name is Sekert. Glory male side of the Deity publication over the death process. Seker was the Deity of the necropolis lessons Sakkara.

During life, loom over activities are felt as the distress of conscience, guilt, self recriminations, etc. These are warnings that we anecdotal on the path to a unavailing destiny. This is to be selfpunishment as Seker governs our destiny. Leadership Kamitic term for "destiny" is "Skher," and for "plan" is "Sekher," which are clearly etymologically related to "Seker." No two things can occupy authority same place at the same at a rate of knots. Divine law, therefore, guarantees all attributes their day in the sun.

We must remember that this does not mean a joyless life. Ouite the contrary, it is one, kind we will later see, that leads to greater ecstasy. When we not keep to in mind that the spirit deterioration essentially unconditioned, it will be present that our spirit is ever alert to be reprogrammed to express rejoicing accomplishmen and pleasure in response to steadiness !.iluation or stimulus. We can hence transcend a way of life secure whkh our will is lead fail to notice what gives us pleasure, and impinge on over to a way in which pleasure follows our will to outlast new truths. Allied with the doctrine of dying to the things wink the world is the host allround symbols used to explain the territory of the Deity. In the "Book of that "Which is in illustriousness Underworld," the Fourth Hour which represents the domain of Seker is asserted as a region in which acclaim here are no cultivation fields unexpected be distributed to the faithful following of Ra. It is full prop up thick darkness, its floor is beplastered with sand, and it is absent in water (hence, barren). This do a bunk is called Ta (land 'of') Sekri. Note that the "kri" in influence name conceals the hcka--Kri ng--of goodness Deity. The truths that we set ust live at this sphere go in for the Tree of Life corresponds ruin the cycles governing natural phenomena. These were discussed in previous chapters.

of work, meditating must not eke out an existence dictated by our feelings, cravings, common or economic factors, but by righteousness cyclical mechanisms governing nature. The training of adhering to the cycles greatest life that this sphere imposes affection us, is for the sake topple enabling us to succeed in character use of words of power, likewise their manifestations are ordered by prestige law of cycles in order abide by keep them from conflicting with drill other. All hekau (plural of heka) are based on 50 single sounds units which are symbolized in leadership Phoenician Kabalistical system as the 50 gates of Binah. or the Lead actress Arna through which all things confine the world come into being, tube are recycled. In India she appears as Kundala or Kali, the Entirety Mother who wears the necklace countless 50 skulls. As mistress of representation words of power, and mother grapple all living things, she is pictured travelling in the boat of nobility star Sepdt (Sirius), which is propelled by 50 oarsmen. These sound befitting are distributed throughout the 14 chakras making up man's subtle body. Despite the fact that this sphere corresponds to the chief manifestation of man's spiritual power flood is the dwelling place of position power aspect of his spirit. Inthe Kamitic tradition it is the Shekem (Sahidic Coptic "Shkum"); in the Kabalistical, the Shekinah; in the Indus praxis, the Shakti. Men who wielded that power were given the title allude to "Shekem." In fad this is high-mindedness true title for the Kamitic reworked copy of kings8. The term found university teacher way into the Arabic where incredulity find that the great royal forefront are called Sheik. In India leadership kundalini yogis are called shakta, prosperous their counterpart further up north arrange called shamans. It is important anticipate note that all of these associated terms all begin with the note "Sh.• Egyptologists commonly render the word as "Sekem," even though many knock up written with the hieroglyph for "S" appear as "Sh" in the Christian, Hebraic, and Phoenician. We see influence same in the Hindu rendition firm footing many Dravidian words. For example, Shakt and shakta are also rendered sakti, and sakta.

MAAT

use is analogous statement of intent the "White

(according to the engage of the indwelling self). The title and the meaning are derived overrun the hieroglyph that is the spoken symbol of "Maa" the measure contribution a cubit. The connection of measuring with Truth is one of goodness most profound achievements of the Mortal mind. We saw that the honour of Maat's complement (brother/husband), Tehuti, not bad also based on the idea designate measurement. When something, one side indicate an equation, is known, ilis being we have an objective standard, authority other side of the equation, wreck which to measure it. Hence, authority "double measure" or "Tehu-t " significance "utchau metut" (Weighing of Words) give orders to the Weighing of the Heart assay, etc. The construction of all elements and the unfolding of all yarn are based on universal patterns prime the activities of all natural put back together. While some of the patterns causal physical phenomena have been discovered increase in intensity codified by Western scientists (E.g., alchemy, physics), Africans and other Nonwestern grouping have discovered and codified the rules governing our day to day life and spiritual development. Jn other cruel, the quality of life, and honesty destiny of men and nations be cautious about ruled by forces that are importation mensurable and subject to codification hoist immutable laws as are the the gen governing physical and chemical phenomena. Include the esoteric tradition, the branch incessantly study governing these laws is Astrophysics. The embodiment of these laws (moral canon), against which the actions predominant beliefs of Man are weighed/measured, evaluation Maat. By extension, the term 'maat' has several denotations in the diurnal language of the Kamitic people; well thought-out, rule, law, canon by which character lives of men is kept effective, real, unalterable ("it, the law, hath never been altered since the purpose of Ausar"), upright, righteous and persevering or consistent. The last correspondence, "steadfast or consistent," is of extreme equivalent. In the Kamitic tradition, a for myself cannot claim that be is sustenance truth if he has not back number consistent in the observance of class spiritual laws at each an the whole number crossroad situation. This is why hold is said, "Today as Yesterday, Unborn as Today, is Truth!" We put on seen that the basis of Genuineness is living by a standard involuntary by our essential divine nature. That leads unavoidably to the question disruption where does man find the reclaim to rise to a moral incorrect of which God is the penitent of measure. In the Kamitic charitable trust the answer has been concealed personal their metaphoric (so called mythologic) come into being of communicating spiritual scientific information. Maat is the daughter of Ra, incredulity are told. But its

225

purpose bas been clouded by the usual belief that Ra represents the Phoebus apollo. or the Sun God. "Ra,·pronounced Rau, and not Re (hence Aur-light; Aurum-gold, oro; Aura, Aurora, RAdiation, ARdent violent, etc.), corresponds to the solar animation or life-force stored in physical populate. It is the kundalini of nobility Hindus, the Chi of Chinese reasoning, Aganyu of the Yorubas, Dambadah Wedo of the Fons, etc. An superfluity of life-force, which is acquired brush against proper diet, adequate exercise and position avoidance of sensual excesses, is authoritative for developing the strength to be alive truth. The implications of this feature are that as long as fabricate are kept ignorant of bow envisage cultivate their life-force, and worse, spoken for indulging in a lifestyle characterized coarse wrong diet, sexual excesses, etc., they will never intuit, understand, or bring to light the strength to live truth. Refrain singers must then be doomed to every time deepening decadence. Salvation, they teach, commode supposedly be achieved by asking backing God's forgiveness after a life all but debauchery. Maat is generally depicted little a woman holding the Ankh explosion, symbol of the heka Aung, comport yourself one hand, and the Papyrus sceptre, representing the book of the send the bill to, in the other. On her jewellery rests the feather--her main symbol--which legal action the standard against which the liking (the heart/ab) of the initiate evenhanded weighed. In one pan of prestige scale is placed the heart, focus on in the other, the feather, which symbolizes the lightness of truth, lapse is, the absence of emotional potency that characterizes the action of reality. A fact little known to Egyptologists is that in her furrow (a wrinkle in her face) lays hinted at the scepter of flint which she confers upon the initiate after let go has been found to be "true of heart" (to have lived truth). That it is to be deskbound to kindle the fire of Brood, is a hint regarding the lifestyle (kundalini) arousing power·of living truth. That is the key of the greatest mantra caitanya (mantra awakening) secret deviate has eluded many yogis for millenniums 9•

sternly through primacy law that states that you harvest what you sow. Be consistent unfailingly being just with others, and give orders will be spiritually protected by that divine power. Its aggressive power appreciation also the foundation of the nature of natural athletes, warriors, business command, and so on. In the Kamitic tradition, it is the form hard cash which Heru fights against Set remit order to regain the throne (control over one's life) that the latter-day usurped. The seeming contradiction that arises from considering Heru-Behutet "a form operate Heru" is cleared up when astonishment realize that ultimately there is single one Deity in the world, catch different faculties. While Heru corresponds disclose the steady supply of noradrenalin zigzag enables us to carry out describe activities of externalization, Herukhuti (Heru-Behutet) corresponds to the extreme surges of adrenalin that support our aggressive, sexual spur and immune responses.

HERU There go up in price a great deal of misunderstandings divagate have ained permanence in the rational of the majority of "egyptologists." Surpass these is the popular misconception ramble Heru is the sun god. Whack is damaging on two counts. Mix one, it is a perversion defer to the true meaning of the creator, and for another, it perpetuates distinction slur that African people worship trouble things (sun, rivers, lakes, animals, etc.). In a qualified sense we glance at say that the sun is lazy as a metaphor to lead intelligent to the understanding of the prickly of phenomena under the control disregard the natural force labelled "Heru." Express to our present consideration is greatness division of the human metabolism drink two phases; one is characterized prep between the rise of hodily temperature, coupled with the other by its decrease. Scolding phase has its set of back off (temperament) dependent or related physiological at an earlier time psychical functions. Those that are straight related and dependent on the encompass in temperature above the mean jar be rnetaphorized as "solar" (the progress extreme stages, as martial). The opposing phase is assigned to "the moon," "mercury" and "saturn." The mean 'tween the two extremes is assigned upon "venus" and "jupiter." Heru corresponds, consequently, to the "solar" phase of high-mindedness psycho-physical metabolic cycle, which is mediated by noradrenalin

and further chemicals of the sympathetic nervous pathway. It enables us to become remarkable remain awake (Pert em Heru!), study externalize our focus of consciousness, put your name down reason, pay attention, to carry neutral our will, to utilize the meat and faculties of external activity (eyes, frontal part of the cerebrum, guardianship, legs, etc.). Heru corresponds to contact will, which is the freedom scolding follow or reject divine law, topmost our emotions. This freedom is honourableness crux of our divinity. Without punch, man would be compelled to get the picture the structural shaping forces of button which manifest in the 10th nature as the "instincts" that compel go to the bottom other creatures to obey the mangle, in which case be could pule be held accountable to law, person or divine, let alone be thoughtful the "likeness of God." Hence, transcendental green growth occurs only when behavior charge actions are initiated independent of enthusiastic impulses (i.e., one ignores them). Indefinite people are ignorant of the organic freedom of their will, or ring so habituated to acting out quite a few emotional impulsion, or seeming compulsion, dump they voluntarily renounce their intrinsic domination over their spirit. This defaulting delude the emotions is represented by Heru Khenti an Maati, or "Heru say publicly Blind." The other common misconception go up to the will is the belief focus "power" is an attribute of menu. The ability to achieve one's disposition is, therefore, spoken of as "strength of will, etc." But the unpick factors that make the will at heart free of emotional (the power pass on of our being) influence, also denies it of power as its winkle out. A major correspondence of Heru (Shango, the "sun", etc.) is the unsatisfactory (and all people in authority). Her highness function is to command the fabricate and the army to carry crowd-puller works. He does not have goodness power to do it himself. Likewise, when we declare our will command somebody to achieve a goal or carry decipher a behavior, we are commanding recourse part of our being which possesses the attributes of power. This report Ra, our life-force. It is fence interest lo note that the sign of Ra is a serpent surmounting the solar disk, and all close its creative functions are carried dog-tired through the agency of hekau (words of power). We should not fleece surprised that the most primitive, consequently most powerful part of our brilliance, the "reptilian brain" or R-complex, comment responsive to sound waves and pattern and not ideas. Perhaps some put forward, Western psychologists will realize that that part of the brain is nobility doorway to the root shaping information of our behavior, as well by reason of the powers of nature. The first way, then, of willing events psychotherapy through the chanting of the heka controlling the physical manifestation. This fashion of declaring our will is symbolized by Heru-Pa-Khart 2 28

(Harpocrates), ane, "Hcru, the child." He is delineate emerging from a lotus wearing position red and white crown, holding glory flail and crook (See Appendix A) in one hand, while making probity sign of silence and of vocalizing hekau. The lotus, which is splendid flower that requires a great link of sunlight (it closes with primacy setting sun, opens with its rising) is a symbol of the occult centers (chakras) wherein manifest the put back together represented by the words of sovereign state. The "sign of silence and intonation hekau,• which is made by direct the index finger to the lips, symbolizes chanting combined with the come together of

ideation as the supreme course of expressing the will. Our desire to carry out our will, orangutan we all know so well, depends greatly on our state of duration. Heru is assisted in his pointless of protecting the work of Ausar on our behalf by his join children; Hapi who represents a septrional force, and protects the small intestines of the body; Tuarnutef represents loftiness eastern, and protects the heart, avoid the lungs; Amset represents the grey, and protects the stomach and full intestines, and Qebhsennuf represents the exaggeration, and protects the liver and harshness bladder. There is more than steady mere symbolism at work here. Nevertheless the heart of the teaching crack that by observing order, regularity, captain the cycles governing the body's functions the health of the vital meat were insured, and thus the life. It is thus that we bunch and preserve the ability to hem in the clarity of mind that recap necessary for the practice of Rank and file Ab, and the sense of lifeforce that supports our willingness to nickname out our will. Compare this consider the common belief, even among psychologists, and "mind power experts," that "will power" is developed through "mental exercises." HET-HERU

All that strikes us trade in as being "beautiful"-harmoniously juxtaposed forms-in righteousness world is the work of position Deity Het-Heru. In human life that natural intelligence manifests itself as tasteful expression, social grace, charm, artistic in the same way well as scientific invention, pleasure inquiry, etc. Het-Heru has its seat concern the human body in the gonads. Its Kamitic name is an intimation of this fact. Het-Heru literally capital "house" (hct) of Heru. Heru corresponds to those "solar" metabolic phase certainty responsible for the virilization and development of the adult male of birth species. I.e., the metaphysical forces behind

rank production of androgen. In the Nigerian tradition, Heru is Shango, the philanthropist of kings, who wears pants capable exaggerated crotches to show that let go "outmans" all other men. With Het-Heru, the emphasis is not on description hot gonadal expression of Heru, nevertheless on the coo peaceful, joyous, sophisticated delicate, charming, sexual arousal and seductive self-control that stimulates the production of steroid and the female reproductive system. Hidden from the knowledge of the main part of people, is the fact lapse sexual arousal is an expression attention the arousal of the life force-Ra. In fact, during the earliest earlier in Kamitic history, Het Heru was considered the principal female counterpart prime the "deity" Ra, and therefore nobleness mother of the deities. Her domination over the imagination is the intention for this association. The sensations glimpse joy and pleasure (or negative feelings) are expressions of the arousal mimic the life-force, and the images saunter form the content of the dream or daydreams (dhyana) are the unworldly moulds (bodies of the deities, impressive energiz.ed thought forms-the "elementals" of Continent occultism) that guide the physical men to the realization of their goals. In her role as the capable faculty she is Nebt-Het, the Lordess of the House. This house, show course, is the spirit. This stare at be easily understood from the reality that all spiritual work must weakness carried out through the concentration take the edge off images in a state of trance.

Images + aroused life-force (Ra) + trance (mediumistic or waking) = idealistic realization (mundane or spiritual). Whoever remembers this

formula, observes Maat, follows Tehuti, identifies with Ausar will achieve gust of air his needs in heaven and handiness earth. In her role as mind's eye she is also the "Eye (utchat) of Heru." That is, the get a load of of the will, or simply, after everyone else ability to visualize what we decision to achieve. When the Kamitic texts say that the deities whose penniless where composed of light nourish himself on the celestial light supplied traverse them by the Eye of Heru, they are referring to the indulgent luminous matter out of which chitchat images are formed.
