If you have been in the Black conscious community for any length of time, you have heard the term ma’at used.
Ma’at is the daughter of Ra – Supreme God of Kemetic culture – and is the goddess of truth, justice, divine order, and cosmic balance. Her polar opposite, Set, is the God of darkness and chaos. Therefore, when we discuss ma’at, we are discussing the opposite of destructive force. Ma’at is often shown with wing and carries an ankh, the key of life.
So important were the principles of order and cosmic balance to the rulers of Kemet that they would often carry an image of Ma’at seated as a sign that the Pharaoh represented her regime.
Judges in Kemet also wore an emblem of Ma’at on their chest, and all those who would become a part of society in Kemet were urged to seek Ma’at. Invoking the goddess Ma’at is appropriate for righting wrongs and to help truth and understanding emerge from any situation. Invoking Ma’at also brings one back to the primal beginnings of Earth, finding common ground, balance, and to embody righteousness.
When a person died, their soul was lead by Thoth, god of wisdom, into the Hall of Double Justice, to the presence of Osiris, Lord of the Dead, along with 42 Assessors, or Judges of Ma’at. The heart, which is a person’s essence, would be weighed in the Scales of Justice against Ma’at’s feather from her headdress. If the person had led a good life the heart would balance against the feather. If the person had committed one or more crimes against the divine rules, then it would weigh heavier and would be eaten by the goddess Ammut, thereby to die the eternal death.
Those that balanced would be led by Ma’at to Osiris, and be permitted to join with the celestial goddesses and gods for all eternity. The Declaration of Innocence that the deceased were judged against were written in The Book of Coming Forth by Day (The Book of the Dead) as follows:
I have not committed a sin.
I have not committed robbery with violence.
I have not stolen.
I have not slain men and women.
I have not stolen grain.
I have not purloined offerings.
I have not stolen the property of God.
I have not uttered lies.
I have not carried away food.
I have not uttered curses.
I have not committed adultery; I have not lain with men.
I have made none to weep.
I have not eaten the heart.
I have not attacked any man.
I am not a man of deceit.
I have not stolen cultivated land.
I have not been an eavesdropper.
I have not slandered.
I have not been angry without any cause.
I have not debauched the wife of any man.
I have not debauched the wife of man.
I have not polluted myself.
I have terrorized none.
I have not transgressed.
I have not been a person of wrath.
I have not shut my ears to the words of truth.
I have not blasphemed.
I am not a man of violence.
I have not been a stirrer up of strife.
I have not acted with undue haste.
I have not pried into matters.
I have not multiplied my words in speaking.
I have wronged none, I have done no evil.
I have not worked witchcraft against the king.
I have never stopped water.
I have never raised my voice.
I have not cursed God.
I have not acted with arrogance.
I have not stolen the bread of the gods.
I have not carried away the khenfu cakes from the Spirits of the dead.
I have not snatched away the bread of a child, nor treated with contempt the god of my city.
I have not slain the cattle belonging to God.
Compare these laws to the 10 Commandments of the Old Testament in Christianity while keeping in mind that these laws preceded the Bible (as we know it) by thousands of years. The 10 Commandments of the Torah (Old Testament) are as follows:
I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them.
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long.
Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not steal.
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor’s.
The 10 Commandments of Christianity were said to have been delivered by Moses ‘The Law Giver’. But according to the Bible, Moses was educated in Kemet. As a member of the royal house, Moses was taught the ‘Mystery Systems’, or what we have come to know as Kemetic Science, and his education most certainly included the Declarations of Maat.
Typically when the Bible is brought up in conversation, what comes to mind is a source of truth that has not been tampered with. However, when this book was originally published it contained 80 books and current editions only have 66, and we have to wonder what exact purpose the removal of 14 books would serve? The Vatican Church or Roman catholic church has been associated with deception for ages. Their atrocities have ranged from genocide many centuries ago against the Cathars to child molestation is more recent years. The Bible was originally translated from Latin into English in 1611. This “original” Bible contained 80 books, including the Apocrypha, which means hidden. These Apocrypha books made up the end of the Old Testament, and included the following books: • 1 Esdras • 2 Esdras • Tobit • Judith • The rest of Esther • The Wisdom of Solomon • Ecclesiasticus • Baruch with the epistle Jeremiah • The Songs of the...
An approximately 1,500-2,000-year-old Bible found in Turkey has left the Vatican in shock because it allegedly confirms that Jesus Christ wasn’t crucified as has come to be widely believed. The Bible, which was discovered in 2000 and kept in secret in Ankara’s Ethnography Museum, contains the gospel of Jesus’ disciple Barnabas. The gospel claims that Christ was neither crucified nor was he God’s son. Instead, it says he was just a prophet. The book also refers to Apostle Paul as “The Impostor” and further claims that Christ ascended back to heaven alive, with Judas Iscariot being crucified in his place. The now controversial book was recovered during an operation in the Mediterranean-area as authorities went against a gang that smuggles antiquities and illegal explosives, says a report by The National Turk. The old book is currently valued at a whopping 40 million Turkish Liras, approximately $28 million. Experts and religious bodies have examined the book an...
“…The darkest man is here the most highly esteemed and considered better than the others who are not so dark. Let me add that in very truth these people portray and depict their gods and their idols black and their devils white as snow. For they say that God and all the saints are black and the devils are all white. That is why they portray them as I have described.” – Marco Polo,after visiting the Pandyan Kingdom in 1288 More than a thousand years before the foundations of Greece and Rome, proud and industrious Black men and women known as the Dravidian erected a powerful civilization in the Indus Valley. From those origins, African Kings in India drove the region’s commerce, culture, and belief systems. Dr. Clyde Winters, author of Afrocentrism: Myth or Science? writes: “Ethiopians have had very intimate relations with Indians. In fact, in antiquity the Ethiopians ruled much of India. These Ethiopians were called the Naga. It was the Naga who created Sanskrit. ...
Akanfo (ah-kahn'-foh) in the Twi language of the Akan means Akan people. Akanfo originated in ancient Khanit , also called Keneset (Ancient Nubia), at the beginning of human existence upon Asaase (Earth). This is the region of contemporary Sudan and South Sudan in the Eastern region of Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) . We eventually migrated around the world. Some Akanfo migrated north of Khanit and settled ancient Kamit (ancient Egypt), while others remained in Khanit. Over the millennia, Akanfo migrated to West Afuraka/Afuraitkait (West Africa) establishing the ancient civilization of Akana (Khanat - Ghana). Some Akanfo were also a component of the Kanem empire (pre-Bornu), the original/authentic Black Berber empire (Abibiri-fo) and the Kong empire (Kan) before ultimately migrating to and settling in the areas of contemporary Ghana (Akana) and Ivory Coast. Akanfo presently comprise approximately 45.3 percent of the population of Ghana (11,000,000) and approximately 42...

Here are 10 correspondences that align ancient occult science discovered by melanated minds with the current understandings in the field of quantum physics that prove “The Universe is Mental” and “The Mind is All”. The Principle of Mentalism found in the wisdom of Hermes Trismegistus (known as Thoth in ancient Egypt) demonstrate that “The Universe is MENTAL, The Mind is ALL.” Many repeat this quote, or others like it, without even the slightest notion of what this means, and if it’s really even true. The reality is, ancient melanated minds such as those in Egypt whom mastered the Occult Sciences understood what we now call metaphysics and quantum physics. Meaning they acquired true knowledge of the nature of the physical world and the foundational quantum mental world beneath it. The Principle of Mentalism as found in the Kybalion states, “THE ALL IS MIND; The Universe is Mental.” The Kybalion goes on to expound briefly on the concept of mentalism: “ This Principle embodies the truth t...
The Founder and General Overseer of Life Assembly Worship Centre, Reverend Christian Kwabena Andrews, popularly known as Osofo Kyiri Abosom, has made a shocking statement about the Bible. Speaking in an interview with Zion Felix on the ‘Uncut Show’, Osofo Kyiri Abosom revealed that there is no power in the Bible. He described the Bible as a history book intended for reference. According to him, God has finish fulfilling what He told the disciples and other Biblical personalities. The man of God asserted that the Bible guides this generation and prove the existence of God but the message it contains is not the word of God as perceived by many people. Osofo Kyiri Abosom enunciated God speaks through human, and a new Bible can be compiled if this generation decides to write what is happening today. The founder of Ghana Union Movement (GUM), who is aspiring to contest in the 2020 presidential election queried why pastors of today are not eating locusts like John th...
Your Cells are Listening Every part of your body has its own consciousness or its own soul. These transformative words, spoken by indigenous medicine women, began my journey within to discover the extraordinary healing capacity of the human body. When this perspective was introduced to me, I was suffering from a severe chronic pain disorder. I suddenly imagined incorporating this concept into my meditation routine. I thought, can my body hear me… can I talk to it to gain its cooperation in healing this condition? The Path to Freedom That night, after reaching a state of deep calm through meditation, I inwardly engaged my body in a heartfelt conversation, with hope, but having no idea what to expect. After about one hour of this focused communication, something amazing happened. My tissues began to respond. Connective tissue pulled and stretched apart layers of scar tissue. Nerves fired and my calf muscles began to perform flexion and extension exerci...
Being a multidimensional immortal soul repeating a temporary, encapsulating, and illusionary “material” experience is Hell. In it’s proper context, the “Lucifer” that fell from heaven is the illuminated soul of the Original man falling from the high-vibratory circumstance of the spiritual/astral/mental realm into a crystalized material circumstance as a human. Heaven is the mental circumstance. Hell is the “physical” circumstance. It has been suggested by even the earliest civilizations whom studied occult sciences that becoming a human is not necessarily a “blessing”, but rather a wretched and repetitious condition that must be overcame and conquered. This means that we are alive to achieve a particular transformation of our own soul that would allow us keep up with the progressive evolution of everything in the universe. The transformation that must be achieved apparently is only possible while completely encapsulated by crystallized matter, like a child in a womb. For the so...
The following was written by Digansela Ubuntu. Born DeAndre Fears, Digansela Ubuntu is an Alumni of Hume-Fogg Academic, and is currently a University of Memphis student of Geography. His strong Baptist Christian background and passion for the culture of our melanin-rich people leads his never-ending quest to make the truth known to masses. Let me start by asking this question: When is the last time you have considered astrology? Most people would disregard the study, as they usually think only of horoscopes and many find horoscopes silly. But, astrology? Is there a difference between astrology and horoscopes? Astrology is the study of the stars and their vastly unexplored effect of phenomena and events in the human world. Learning about the stars actually helps we better understand ourselves. Think of the Principle Law of Correspondence which states, “as above, so below.” Following this method, as we continue to seek knowledge about the vastness of space, we, indeed, should ...
