“Keepin it 100” or “Keeping it Real” are not Moral Declarations. In fact, “Keepin it 100” or “Keeping it Real” doesn’t mean someone is “Keeping it Right” or that they're even interested in being Right at all. Keeping it “real” can mean a person’s attitude is “real” ugly, they’re talking “real” greasy, they’re being “real” ignorant, and they’re “really” uncivilized. People will say/do the most out of pocket, disrespectful, un-lady like, and clownish things in the name of “I’m just keeping it 100!”, and it’s even worst when People who think, speak, and behave this way are so-called “Conscious” …

One of the problems The NOI had and often still have with The NGE (Five Percenters) is the fact that we have 120 Lessons without their Rules of Instruction or Restrictive Laws. They were concerned that People would get this Knowledge and use it for evil (wrong) without a Moral Code. This was and continues to be a very valid concern on the part of The NOI, because there are so-called Gods/Earths “trying to” use our Lessons for evil (wrong). Based upon their character, attitude, and social activities, there are many so-called Gods/Earths that I would never allow in my Home, ESPECIALLY around my children. The Internet is full of these individual’s Blogs, Blogtalk Shows, Vlogs, FB Pages, etc… who claim to be a God or Earth. This is not and has never been “The Status Quo” nor Social Standard of our Nation. To claim to be a God/Earth meant we dedicated ourselves to positive growth & development in order to improve our quality of life, and the quality of life of our Family, our Community, and our People as a whole. If a person claims to be a God/Earth yet has no sense/concept of “our”, “us”, or “we” (Collective), then there’s a fundamental problem with how they’re using this Knowledge -regardless how intelligent they appear to be. Our Nation was founded upon The Father giving of himself genuinely and completely to his Community, especially the Youth, and all of us who claim to be Members, Affiliated with, or Sympathizers of The NGE would not be here if it wasn’t for his selfless commitment to our People.

Now although there is a segment of so-called Gods/Earths who seem to be unconcerned about demonstrating Civilization (“one having Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Culture, Refinement, and is not a savage in the pursuit of Happiness” 17/1-40), there are many Gods/Earths who’s Moral Code (Laws) is derived directly from 120 Lessons and “some” of the other teachings, particularly dietary, of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad. So for this segment of our Nation, consciousness, conscientiousness, discipline, ethics, responsibility, and commitment are the hallmarks used to strive for Righteousness. It is this segment who truly uphold the Duty of Civilized People, and lead the People in the right direction, not easily leading them in the wrong direction.

Where is the Moral Code in 120?
Here’s one thing our Lessons (14/1-40) has to say about Morals/Ethics in regards to 85% of the population, “…easily led in ‘the wrong’ direction, and hard to be led in ‘the right’ direction.” This along with other Lessons (4/1-14, 14, 15/1-36, 1, 17-40) informs us that there is a clear concept of a ‘wrong’ and a ‘right’ way to do things.

120 Lessons are learning tools. These tools are in the form of Historical Facts, Allegories, Geography, Science, Psychology, Socioeconomics, Family Dynamics, etc..., constructed to convey ‘wrong’ and/or ‘right’ Principles, Values, and Procedures. These Principles, Values, and Procedures show us the difference between God/Devil, Righteous/Wickedness, and ultimately what these Principles, Values, and Procedures produce. For example, we learn in the 10/1-14 about "Weak and Wicked" in Principle, the Importance (Value) in identifying it, and the proper Procedure how to handle it when it does arise in our cipher. A person walking around with just Supreme Mathematics -which tells you nothing about the above said Lesson-, is missing a great deal when they cannot extract the various different Principles, Values, and Procedures within that Lesson. Another example is the 6th Actual Fact about "Deserts". There are many Principles & Values to be learned about a Desert Landscape and Desert Wildlife/Vegetation. There are also many Procedures that we can use that will ultimately determine if we live/die in that type of “harsh” environment. We all come across this type of terrain in our lives, especially in a Relationship, and it helps to know how to handle that circumstance if/when we do. Many People don’t realize that although Desert heat can top over 100° before 10am, that same Desert can drop below zero at night! So imagine that; it’s possible to freeze to death in a Desert. A Camel is called ‘the ship of the desert’ so imagine being in this type of situation without that kind of support… Since Deserts cover 14 million square miles of the Planet’s 57,255,000 square miles, this informs us that whatever we "grow and make" from the beginning is gonna have alittle Desert in it. (9/1-14) And to expect anything different is nothing b.u.t. a mirage… So there’s a lot to be learned about Principles, Values, and Procedures when it comes to studying 120. I must mention here that producing or making ‘a Devil’ is specifically outlined within our Lessons, so there should never be a misconception as to When, Where, Why, How, Who, and What makes a Devil! It’s all right there in black and white, and there is no way around it. Usually when you hear so-called Gods/Earths advocating ‘That’s just how he/she cee’s it”, 85% of the time they’re lacking in the area of recognizing/adhering to the Moral Codes in 120. Why? Because sometimes how we cee something in Principle, what we Value, and the Procedure we’re using is absolutely wrong. Sometimes Gods/Earths don’t recognize this because they don’t have or study 120. Sometimes they’re relying entirely on Supreme Mathematics, and as I mentioned before, Supreme Mathematics tells you nothing explicit about ‘wrong’ or ‘right’. Now whether these People mature enough to learn the difference between ‘wrong’ and ‘right’ is entirely up to them. Sometimes you’ll have People who do have 120, and are aware of it’s obvious Moral Codes, yet choose not to adhere to them. It is this segment of so-called Gods/Earths who have almost single handedly earned this Nation the negative press and bad reputation we receive in/outside of Correctional Facilities throughout the Country.

The major theme of KOS in general, and 120 specifically, is RESPONSIBILITY. Taking responsibility is one of the biggest challenges to a person’s growth & development. Taking responsibility for improving our lives, helping improve the lives of others, helping improve our Communities, and ultimately the World we all live in. It’s our Duty (RESPONSIBILITY) as Civilized People to “teach he (or she) who is savage Civilization, Righteousness, the Knowledge of Him (or Her) Self, the Science of everything in Life, Love, Peace, and Happiness.” (18/1-40) None of us are on “an Island” and have/are benefitting from the work of others to some degree. The food, clothing, and shelter came from somebody. Our relationships are because of somebody. We wouldn’t even be physically here if it wasn’t for others. Yes some of our experiences have not been good, yet someone, somewhere, at some time has been instrumental in helping us out in a good way. The Universe (Everything) is interdependent and “reciprocal” (A Circle of Life). So imagine the quality of life, lifestyle, and longevity of a person with a selfish mentality like they don’t need to do sh*t for nobody… With a “do me” attitude and an “I’mma get what I want and don’t give a f*ck about what nobody thinks” philosophy on life, how long do you think this person could last in a relationship? In the most basic sense, if we’re not giving anything, then we don’t deserve to receive nothing. Bob Dylan says it in this way, “Today you have the power to take it, but tomorrow you won’t have the power to keep it.”

In closing, I want to remind all of you that if we don’t take responsibility for what we do, what we don’t do, and what we allow/allowed to happen in our life, it’s impossible for us to grow & develop. If it’s everybody else’s fault why we’re at where we’re at in life, then they also have the power over our destiny. They may not care or even have a clue how they effected us. So if we’re waiting for them to do something before we take the initiative to start changing our circumstances for ourselves, then we’re “waiting on a Mystery” (10/1-40). When it comes to Morality/Ethics, there are ‘wrong’ and ‘right’ ways to do everything, and as Gods/Earths we have dedicated our lives to knowing the difference –and aligning ourselves with what’s Right & Exact. The ‘wrongness’ and ‘rightness’ about some situations can be relative, based upon the situation: such as the ‘wrong’ or ‘right’ time to speak. There are also ‘wrongs’ and ‘rights’ that are completely absolute: such as neglecting our children being absolutely ‘wrong’, and not lying, stealing, or trying master others being absolutely ‘right’. Some People mockingly call Gods and Earths “goody two-shoes” simply because they have a problem doing things ‘right’. I can understand it though because most things in their own life constantly go ‘wrong’ for them for them, from their relationships, to their work, to their health. It’s hard for them to actually cee a place “founded in Peace” (5/1-14) with the mess around them -that they usually haven’t taken responsibility for making. The reality is, true & living Gods/Earth are far from that! We’re good People who’re striving to do the right things to earn, enjoy, and extend our stay here on the Planet Earth.

Peace!

“We cannot go about business of social reform in the typical "American Negro" or "American Black" fashion... we have our own standards...”-Life

Remember when we were young, how we did things and our Parents came in on the catastrophe? The weight of such events were too heavy for us to take on "the weight" (6/1-40), so we conveniently transferred the guilt to our little brother or sister? We thought we were so smart, we didn't have to face the music and we could go on like it never happened... Well we did alter events: an innocent person was hung and we shrugged off the deed as if to say, "Better you than me-- besides I didn't like you anyway… " We were immature. We had a dysfunctional philosophy; more like a mythology -because parts of the system was missing. Partly, because we were trying to discover "A RIGHT WAY TO DO WRONG," and partly because we had not gone through enough experiences to see the folly in our convenient way to get out of trouble or "get out of jail free." We are not so young now and we know that there is no pot of gold at the end of the "rainbow." We have learned "what goes around comes back around again" and we who have Knowledge of Self realize that there is no growth without accepting responsibility. While the eighty-five (85%) still believes that a Mystery God keeps his eyes on us all above the clouds, and man is only human and therefore subject to err-- those who embrace our system solidly, see life very differently...

If you knowledge one hundred and twenty (120) Lessons, you know that "Earthquakes is caused by the Son of Man (sun in man) experimenting with high explosives. In fact, all that above is caused by the son of man." (8/1-40) But I say here that some of you are taking this quite extremely literal (as opposed to allegorical). There are many Women who are walking away from relationship "train wrecks," staggering from the physical and psychological damage-- then going public, talking about "how their Man failed to do what they believe is proper in their relationships." The way they speak is very powerfully antagonistic-- not to mention tactless and not much owning up to their implications in the incident. There are also similar conversations taking place in cyberspace amongst our Men. I guess our proclivity to hip-hop culture has much to do with this. And equally, the assertive classes in the late 70's and 80's -spearheaded by the business minded Feminist-, may have produced overtones amongst the female population which are causative factors as well. You may use the word "misogyny" b.u.t. a lot of this posturing is equally as bad as some of the language in the "rap world." I seriously doubt that either type is going to get favorable behavior from others -when talking so abrasively.

While many may feel it is necessary to "keep it real" and express our feelings, it is important to understand that there is a proper time and place to express those ideas and feelings and other times when you have to stick to what you know to be true. Our Black Prince, Al Hajj Malik Shabazz [Malcolm X], often cautioned us against "airing our dirty laundry out in public" amongst the "enemy's" media. Ironically, it was his statements about John F. Kennedy's Assassination, and his perceived ideas of infidelity claimed to be perpetrated by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad that laid him open to the attacks that culminated in his own death. Family, our people have lost a lot of key critical figures within the black population over words permeated throughout the American airwaves, and the skillful manipulation of their words by The Press.... We might not want to look at it this way, but the Internet is a tool of the Government. It was first conceived as the World Wide Web to connect Military ‘High Rank’ Officials throughout the World, then it was "dumb-down" and dressed up for public consumption.... Interestingly enough, these same types of psychically arrested People seldom use the word "we," nor inclusive words like "us", "our", "Family," Nation, etc., while the words constantly appear in our Lessons when referring to the TRUE SELF-- They are constantly indicating to us that they are imperfect, when the word "perfect" does not appear in our Lessons... Only the word "Righteous" [as in "Righteous People" (4/1-14)] appears in our text, when referring to anything near perfection concerning the Asiatic Blackman and Woman. So, which one is it, People? Ironically, amongst these phrases are references which assert that there is "NONE OF US WHO ARE OTHER THAN RIGHTEOUS (15-16/1-36). I can only surmise that some of us who claim that they have Knowledge of Self, must have a slight identity crisis... These effects are produced by a cultural conflict of being in the current Society that we (members of The NGE) are incarnated into, and not indicative of the Culture we are striving to recapture. Some of us feel we are so hip that we can "walk tight-rope style across the bobbed-wire cyclone fences." That we got something for everybody on both sides of the fence. "Niggers talk about the mind-- my mind, your mind, ‘I Got that B@tches mind uptight’... Niggers don't know a damn thing about the mind, or else they'd be right" -- Last Poets.

My People, especially my Black Women, I am not trying to trivialize the dysfunctional mistreatment of Women in relationships. Many of the issues brought up are very real and need to be seriously addressed, b.u.t. the solution to battered Women does not solely rely on trying to reform "the demon" who did that to you! The resolution would be more effective IF THE BATTERED WOMEN WHO WANT CHANGE, WOULD CHANGE THE THINGS THEY DO WHICH CREATES THE CONDITIONS WHICH LEAVES THEM VULNERABLE TO THIS UNWANTED BEHAVIOR. That places the power of change in the hands of the People who want the change. After all, waiting for "someone else to do something else so that you can be happy", places the power to change things in someone else's hands-- making it something that you have no control over. There is nothing you can do about someone else's choice to do something different. You cannot force a person to do Right, be Righteous, or ‘Do the Right Thing’. If you think I'm wrong, all you have to do is take a look at the Prison System in America and you'll see that a Prisoner's rehabilitation lies solely on the Individual wanting to do Right or change their lives, not the Institution's ability to effectively institute proper change in a Prisoners attitude-- a.ka. Prison Houses are not Correctional Facilities! Therefore this type of behavior of trying to "get the World to change so that you can feel better," leaves battered Women powerless to affect the change she wants, because she has empowered the ill-behaved person with the keys to her salvation-- Our Lessons teaches that THE ONLY SAVIOR IS SELF! We can only make knowledge born, it is up to the Individual to want more for themselves and accept the Lesson or the wisdom behind the words...

A while back, after 1973, Hip Hop changed from a party-phrasing Master of Ceremony (MC) with a production sound crew of re-garbled rhythm and blues music, into MC poets who included "battle raps" and "disses" amongst their arsenal of "popular attention getting poetry." Many of these so-called "Rappers" were skilled in the art of story telling and the stories they told had mass appeal because they mimicked situations which happen in real life. And as far as Feminists of the late 70's/early 80's were concerned, a lot of Women's difficulties in the business world and in life were attributed to the idea that most Women were not as assertive as their "male counterparts", therefore, efforts must be made in order to get Women to be more assertive. This led to more aggressive moves being made by Women, while relying on the older societal etiquette and cultural constraints placed upon Men in Society, in order to gain more respect for Women doing less, yet expecting to be "treated like a lady". This too is ironic, since a lot of assertive behavior is less than "lady-like," often spearheaded by Women who many times "love other Women" and are less concerned about the social status of Man-Woman Relationships. They could care less about how heterosexual relationship are fairing out these days..., b.u.t. when you are assertive or aggressive, you can look forward to their being a battle. There is nothing loving about aggression, and imposing your will upon another can only produce resistance.

In a normal setting, Men talk about general difficulties with their male friends in private and females talk about these same difficulties with their "girlfriends" in private but seldom are these ideas expressed to the "opposite" sex in full disclosure and in a public setting (barring momentary "lashings out" and "soap-box" antics)... However, in the current media of music, Hip-Hop and R & B carry-on "knock down, dragged out" conversations concerning problems between Men and Women. Things between a Man and Women in a Relationship, should be kept private between Men and Women (unless you are in counseling or doing self-help artistry).They say that Jazz Music is a True American Classical Art form. America produced the conditions which laid down the foundation for this music to be produced. The same thing goes for Blues in this Country, as well as Hip-Hop, and a lot of "Black" behavior. While there are some common treads, Blacks in America act quite different from Blacks around the world. The West produced the conditions that produced Feminism. The ideas of the ruling class of Western Society towards masculinity is greatly responsible for the Feminist reaction. It is highly unlikely that the struggles for Women's empowerment in China or within Buddhism is called Feminism. The same goes for Women's equality in the religion of Islam. The parameters are different. The roles for Women and Men are different. The responsibility towards the family is different. The taking on of gender responsibility is different. The acceptance of gender-bending or alternate lifestyles are different than in the West... And as The NGE, we are doing something different, so our values are different. We cannot go about business of social reform in the typical "American Negro" or "American Black" fashion... we have our own standards...

The Build or Destroy Lesson within the Knowledge of your Culture's cipher (8/1-40) expressively says, "The Earth is approximately covered under water, approximately three-fourths of its surface." That three-fourths is equivalent to seventy five percent (God-power) water. They say all life started out in the sea. Human beings are made up of about seventy five percent water and are incarnated in a membrane full of brine-like water. Interesting... Water is used to symbolize wisdom. Water is also used to symbolize emotions. Emotions can be feelings and emotions can be viewed as an invocation or motivation (emote is the root of the word emotion). To emote means to stir.

"The Sun and the Moon has an attracting power on our Planet while it is traveling at that terrific speed of 1,037 1/3 miles per hour on its way around the Sun." Now those who are familiar with esoteric writings, Kabalistic Societies such as the Khammau of Khamit (Kemit or so-called "Ancient Egypt"), and just arcane medical terminology, know that the "Sun," or solar part of the brain is the "cerebrum." The "Moon" or lunar part of the brain is called the "cerebellum." Things like volition, or awareness, as well as direct conscious decisions are conducted by the Mind (i.e. Universal Mind) in the "cerebral" part of the brain. Things like survival functions, such as breathing, condition reflexes (also Katas in martial arts) are performed by the Mind in the "cerebellum" part of the brain. "Lunar" functions can also give way to that which is subliminal, subtle forms of stimulations. It can relate to deep seated sentimentalities which compel you into associated feelings, which then affects your biophysical and physical body. In The NGE terminology, the "Sun" is symbolic to the "Black Man" and the "Moon" (which reflects the light of the Sun), is symbolic to the "Black Woman". So when we look at life through human eyes, our awareness and our will (direct ordering vehicle), as well as our conditioned reflexes are symbolized by the term "Sun and Moon." When we view things as ‘gender specific’, Man and Woman are symbolized by the same terms. We also know that another way of looking at the word "attracting," as in "attracting power," is "driving" or "compelling." That is, those things which bring things to you and those things which compel you to act. In the plus degree, "Effects Of Thoughts On Health And Body," it states "The Body is the servant of the Mind and obeys the operations of the Mind, whether deliberately chosen or automatically expressed." B.u.t. the complementary and/or opposite point of view is just as valid. For everything that happens there is a reaction and/or a feeling associated with it. "For every action, there's always an equal and opposite reaction" (the third of Sir Issac Newton's theory on the Laws of Motion). All the Universe was created by a "desire" for Allah to experience his said qualities or powers (38/1-40). Things that happen or CURRENT events may stir you or attempt to compel you into action. We may give into this feeling or we may choose to ignore it. Some things should be ignored... But to institute real change, you have to WANT it bad enough (or WANT MORE FOR YOURSELF) in order to emote, evoke, invoke, the REAL POWER 38/1-40). The choice is yours! It is OUR PREROGATIVE, b.u.t. you do feel me stirring the atmosphere with this type of writing, don't you?

Bear in mind, the question is "What makes rain, hail, snow, and earthquakes? The answer ends with "Earthquakes is caused by the Son of Man (sun of man) experimenting with high explosives. In fact, all that above is caused by the son of man." (8/1-40) Now when we deal with how the degree started out with the statement that "the Sun and the Moon has attracting power on our Planet," the above facts suggest that it could be a Man (Sun) or a Woman (Moon). The word "Son" is a homonym to the word "Sun." If the "Son" of Man is replaced with the "Sun" of Man, then we can say that ALL HAS TO DO WITH THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF MAN AS IN HU-MAN BEINGS; which includes both Male and Female. This means that all that above is caused by what you are aware of, or your need to know/be informed of for your mission in life. The above degree was to point out that those of us who stake claim to being divine are responsible for what happens in our life. "The Sun and Moon having attracting power" upon the water of the earth refers to the ‘direct conscious decisions’ (Sun= awareness or Knowledge) and those ‘indirect subliminal impulses’ or ‘feelings’ (Moon= reflection, sentimentality or need of Wisdom) that effect the emotions (water) within our physical composition (earth)... It is about what you allow and what you don't do. It is about what you know and don't know. It is about how aware you are and how wise. It is about how wise you are and what procedures you have. It is about how prepared are you and what you do with that preparedness [and that servant which knew his Lord's will and prepareth not himself... (19/1-40)]. The degree is telling you to take responsibility for letting the wrong persons or activities into your life, making the wrong decisions, or giving right acts of love to the wrong persons...

This raises a very important issue: "Are you squaring your actions to the truth or are you driven by your feelings?" Are you being a Scientist [one who is devoted to knowing] or a love-sick puppy? They say in drug rehabilitation circles, "People, Places and Things." You cannot keep going around the same people you used to get high with, hanging out in the same places, and doing the same things you used to do getting high and expect to change. Similarly, you cannot try to reform the people at the bar, or urge the bar owners to make their establishment a "vegetarian juice bar," so that you won't drink when you are in those places... As Civilized People, the proper place to express disagreement is amongst the People involved in the disagreement. This means that we start with the People involved; if this does not work, then we express it with the People associated. If the matter is rampant, then it may be necessary to born this knowledge in Parliaments and Street Academies -to evolve a way to address our Nation's issues. When we make our issues pubic within American Society, we peak curiosity in a negative manner. AIRING OUT OUR DISAGREEMENTS IN PUBLIC COMPROMISES OUR IMAGE AS THE NGE AND FIVE PERCENT BY LEANING ON AN OUTSIDER'S PERCEPTION ON WHAT WE ARE DOING AS A GROUP. The tools an outsider uses to attempt to understand our Cultural issues and/or difficulties cannot possibly be proper -because to him we are no more than a mythology; an oddity rooted in things he doesn't understand... All of the Lessons from Build (8) to Knowledge Understanding (13) within the Knowledge to Culture Cipher (8-13/1-40) comments on the God in you versus the Mystery God concept that the Devil teaches about in the Western World. You have to decide what you really BELIEVE or have FAITH in. I'm speaking about what's in your heart, not what you claim: the things you really trust in without doubt.

Earthquakes or violent upheavals in our lives should not be approached from the other persons point of view. That is something that you don't control personally. The "Blame Someone Else Game" is a game played by those who are not accepting full responsibility. Divine Beings should be "God of their Universe," WE (collectively as One) are "Lord of All The Worlds." If you want to control something, learn how to control yourself first, then be more discerning with who you pick to be partners with. It isn't what you give that is the problem, it is who you give it to. "Change your 'Mind' and you change your relationship to time" -George Clinton/ Funkadelic (SONG: Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts). I am not ridiculing anyone, I am giving constructive criticism to those who know how to use such advice. The situation is within your hands. You have the power.

A.S.I.A. Civilization Classes
Back in the early 2000’s, I started holding Civilization Classes at the Public Library here in Atlantis twice a Month, and also Volunteered at a local Recreation Center doing After School Civilization Classes for the Youth every Wednesday. I did this consistently for about a year and half until I was able to establish the support and secure the funding/space necessary to operate my own Mentorship Program: ‘L.I.F.E. Afterschool Program’. Since then, and with the addition of various other Offline/Online Projects and Programs I’ve created, I haven’t organized Civilization Classes in my City since that time.

Through a series of FB Notes I was tagged in by CB’S Alife Allah dealing with the importance and functions of Civilization Classes, I reflected upon some of the recent changes I’ve made in my Schedule, and saw the perfect opportunity to once again reorganize these Classes in my Local Region. A.S.I.A. Civilization Classes began in October, are held twice a Month, and here is the PURPOSE and GOALS:

PURPOSE
To promote Personal/Collective Growth & Development and Responsibility through, but not limited to: Group Study Sessions, Workshops, Presentations, Field Research, Volunteering, Entrepreneurialism, and Guest Speakers.

GOALS
1. To provide a Local/Regional Meeting Space and Learning Environment for Gods/Earths and Original People who are striving to gain ‘Knowledge of Self’. To educate People about our Nation and What We Teach.

2. To offer 120 Classes for Gods/Earths who already have or are currently learning our 8-Point Cultural Curriculum; Supreme Mathematics, Supreme Alphabet, Student Enrollment (1-10), 1-14, 1-36, 1-40, Actual Facts, Solar Facts, *12 Jewels

3. To Network with Local/Regional Organizations and Businesses that implement/fund Programs to combat Family Dysfunction, Juvenile Delinquency, and Community Deterioration.

If you’re interested in seriously Participating, please email me at: quanaah@math.com for Dates, Times, and Location(s).

The NOI & Scientology (Allah in the person of L. Ron Hubbard)
I wrote about The Nation of Islam (The NOI -under the Leadership of Min. Farrakhan) changing it’s orientation a while ago. So the fact that Min. Farrakhan is now steering his Believers in the direction of learning ‘Dianetics’ via The Church of Scientology, doesn’t surprise me. Hey I’ve studied it myself, as I have/do various Worldviews, so I do cee the value in that! What I still don’t agree with is The NOI’s “straying away” (7/1-14) from their Traditional Foundation: “The Teachings” (The Supreme Wisdom Lessons). Now correct me if I’m wrong b.u.t., I don’t think there’s anything more important or sacred for an NOI Believer than studying, learning, and being committed to the actual Words/Teachings of ‘Allah’ in the person of Master Fard Muhammad and ‘The Messenger’ The Honorable Elijah Muhammad. I also don’t thing there is anything more important or sacred than studying, learning, and being committed to The Bible if you’re a Christian, The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures if you're a Jehovah Witness, the Old Testament if you’re Hebrew, the Koran if you’re Muslim, and etc… So to cee such excitement going on amongst The NOI because they’re now studying under L. Ron Hubbard, while 'The Supreme Wisdom Lessons' remain a relic of the past, collecting dust in a Temple basement, is really a tragedy. Like I said, I’ve studied ‘Dianetics’ and Scientology and cee value in the information yet it's “nothing in comparison to that of the Original Man.” (32/1-40) I personally think it would be much more beneficial for Min. Farrakhan to establish MANDATORY ‘Supreme Wisdom’ Study Classes for his Believers. I’d definitely be willing to attend and add on, as I’m sure many other Gods/Earths would!

Now, I posted on my Facebook Status about researching the relationship L. Ron Hubbard (Scientology Founder) had to Jack Parsons and Aleister Crowley. For those of you who keep up with this Journal, I briefly wrote about the importance of studying Aleister Crowley approximately 4 years ago on Nov. 21st, 2006: LINK HERE. As I also stated in my Facebook Status, I don’t expect NOI Believers to disobey Min. Farrakhan’s orders to not study ‘Dianetics’, b.u.t. I did encourage them to do some more research while they’re there. Doing this research is very important if they want to really get a broader perspective.

Ultimately, I think this new Direction taken by The NOI (under the Leadership of Min. Farrakhan) is taking his Followers further and further away from “The Teachings” of ‘Allah’ in the person of Master Fard Muhammad and ‘The Messenger’ The Honorable Elijah Muhammad. And I base this statement on the fact that “The Supreme Wisdom Lessons” still remains a National Non-Priority in The NOI across the board.

For Colored Girls
"It's like creating a world that's women-centered, so aberrant male forms really look aberrant." -Ztozake Shange 1986 in speaking about her Stage Play “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf”

As a Black Man, here's four important things to consider before passing up an excellent opportunity to learn something: 1.) Most Black Women who've ceen this Film can identify with the Character Profiles and Experiences of the Women in this Movie, some more than others. 2.) Most of their experiences happen(ed) 'behind closed doors'. 3.) None of these experiences were openly discussed with Males, especiallythe Males in their lives. 4.) This Film is 'Female-Centered' which means it's a rare opportunity to cee ourselves as Males/Men as an extra. Most Films are 'Malecentic' and it's definately a benefit to be a fly on the wall to cee/hear what some Women really think about, deep down inside, yet would never share with us in a "trillion years" (10/1-40).

For Colored Girls was very educational and intricate. I personally think People need to watch it at least a couple times. Not because you won’t get it, b.u.t. because it’s so many layers to it, complexities of Characters, and situation dynamics, I think it’s hard to appreciate it viewing it once. This was not a Movie, it’s a Social Study, and as far as “craftsmanship” is concerned, I think that this is by far Tyler Perry’s best Movie.

For those who aren’t aware of The Original 1975 Stage Play which was later made into a Movie in 1982, it was originally Titled “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf”. The “When the Rainbow Is Enuf” alludes to the gender politics of the Play’s Creator ‘Ztozake Shange’, who is a self proclaimed Black Feminist. Tyler Perry did an excellent job at translating the themes of this Original 1975 Stage Play to the Big Screen. Although the “…Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf” was dropped from the Title, the poetic backdrop and gender politics were still accurately conveyed in Tyler Perry’s Movie. The only drawback from For Colored Girls is the fact that I can cee many Original Women walking away from the Theatre feeling empowered and more conscious of the importance of Sisterhood, while still maintaining a negative opinion of Males/Men; “Gurrrrl we gotta stick together cuz these, niggas, ain’t, shit!” Although Sisterhood was a major theme of For Colored Girls, the real work of reconciling Relationships between Black Men/Women and forging functional Family Units was a theme not specifically addressed or discussed. It left me wondering, “What’s next for ‘us’ (our Relationships)? Considering the gender politics of Ztozake Shange, the questionability of Tyler Perry’s sexual orientation, and the fact that this reconciliation was obviously excluded from the Movie also begs the question, “Is resolving the dysfunction between Black Male/Female Relationships even important?” To paraphrase a statement the God Life made on the Queen By All Means Blogtalk Radio Show, "The Relationship issues our Women are speaking about are legitimate issues, yet the proposed solution to these issues are not if it doesn't involve a reconciliation with their male counterparts." Some Women will argue the point that this Movie was For Colored Girls, and the more Women can share and support eachother in resolving their issues as Sisters, they’ll be more equipped to make better choices and forge better relationships with Men. I can cee the value in such a statement, and only hope that this is ultimately the determined idea of my Sisters AFTER the final credits roll. In order to consider and hold such a sacred position, a Woman must be capable of identifying with and looking past the multiple “Mister” Monstrosities that represented the general Character Profiles of the Males within this Movie -that are unfortunately a very real segment within our Communities! However, it is also very real that there are many Brothers who’re loving Fathers, Partners, Providers, Protectors, and everything else a Righteous Man should be.

One of the most important things People must realize when approaching and assessing any of these types of Movies that show the dysfunction/trauma going on with Original People in America is: The Institution of Slavery set the stage for most of these issues. Not only did the Institution of Slavery set the stage, b.u.t. it’s unaddressed trans-generational effects and further oppression/disenfranchisement of Black People further exacerbated these issues. So ultimately, we must never loose sight of the fact that we’re watching Victims victimizing themselves and eachother. This does not nullify taking responsibility for this dysfunction or uncivilized behavior, b.u.t. this lets us know that there’s much more than meets the eye. If we plan on seriously solving these issues as Adults, we need to know the full dimensions of our problems as a People, as a Family, as Companions, and as an Individual.

Peace!

“It's not what you admit to, it is what you plan to do about it, that makes all the difference in the world you're living in.” -Life


Besetting our efforts to rise up into a mighty Nation is the belief that Divinity is a birth right and that Women should be something other than equality. This is like a Mexican Stand-off, a game of Chicken, or Russian Roulette. Recognize that “the Father of the Devil” was an Original Black Man (4/1-14). There are eighty-five percent who are Black and ten percent who are Black. The Father of the Devil was born from a tribe of ‘dissatisfied’ Black People. You may look at him as God, because “God made Devil” (38/1-40), but his behavior was far beyond what we would call Righteous. He was described as a big head scientist experimenting with high explosives, as many of you are doing today.

Just because you are Black and have come to know how the Black Man of Asia saw himself before the White Man came scooping up all the prisoners of war our enemies in Central Asia captured, does not make you God. There are naturally Black and Brown, Dominate and Recessive amongst Black People, just as there were and are satisfied and dissatisfied among us as well. Interestingly enough, back in our past, ‘dissatisfaction’ with the social structure gave birth to the Devil (22,23,24/1-40). Nowadays, our ‘dissatisfaction’ with the devil's civilization is the main thrust in us to recapture our Culture! The tables have turned!

All of us can be “led in the wrong direction” (14/1-40), it is what you do afterwards that makes the difference. What good is it, if you admit you have faults yet add the word "but" onto your statements? “BUT’ is a contradictory word. The very nature of the word say Be-U-true to the square (of what is right), because the next couple of words or statements after saying that word will bring about nullifying results to what you just admitted. In other words, "Yeah, I was wrong for doing that ‘BUT’ you made me do it (and since you are responsible then if you don't start none, there won’t be none)," when you should know that “all that above is caused by the Sun of (and in) Man” (8/1-40)!

Godliness is a state of development. You will never evolve until you involve your self in doing and being right. You will never see what powers come out of the words you speak, until you take them seriously instead of using them to razzle dazzle people. Your contradictions make those words Self imposed prisons because as the Knowledge Born Degree in the Knowledge to your Culture's Cipher (19/1-40) clearly states (St. Luke 12:47) "and that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, and shall be beaten with many stripes." Many of you are upholding Red, White, and Blue stripes, and considering those ideals to be your own true Culture! Following behind Feminists and wondering why you keep ending up being alone. The Feminist Movement in America is largely run by lesbians. Their aim is not the reconciliation between Man and Woman, repairing of the Family, or having babies. Their aim is for Women to be with Women! So, though some of their points are valid, their direction and approach isn't. Why? Because they will always be adverse to the male population, for example. Did we originate these ideas? No, we pick them up from mass media in America. This is no different than the Man who feels Women are sex objects and not wise intelligent Human Beings. This is not the thinking that originates in our Lessons. This is not the ideas of “the Wise Man (and Woman) from the East”, or “Civilized People” as (Original People) we know them. (1,18/1-40)

Imagine, if you will, basing all your actions on things you know are true and right and exact... Could you conceive what would be the results of that? Even if you made the wrong assessment, your honesty and Self examination would have you analyze the approach until you figured the right result. But you have to want it and you must be able to take constructive criticism. If you can't take constructive criticism, you cannot benefit from the "all-eyes-seeing" in your Universal Family giving you jewels (37/1-40). It's not what you admit to, it is what you plan to do about it, that makes all the difference in the world you're living in. We might all claim Divinity, but not all of us feel that in our hearts. Owning up to your errors is a start but the positive education to correct your errors and leading a life that is based upon what you know to be true is “the best part that should be preserved” (1/1-14). And this goes for Women too! Many of you are destroying your own relationships by trying to construct something based on a momentary flash of light, while our Culture “is older than the Sun, Moon and Stars”! (9/1-10) You should spend more time getting to the hidden jewels in your Lessons, than spending your time trying to manipulate your Man in your own image. Sure, speak up about the inequalities, but respect your King! If our Women do not believe in her Man's ability to lead, how can our Nation even compete in today's Society? Women who are ‘dissatisfied’ need to talk to Wise, Intelligent, Nationalistic Black Women, instead of "cultural witches," because they are only miserable Women who want company. Remember, "He or Her without Knowledge of Self cannot Build, only Destroy, and take many other lives."

Slavery has really wounded all of our Self Esteem. Because of this, we must be patient, but we cannot find ourselves "searching for something that does not exist" (10/1-40); they must be "said persons of that ability” (20/1-40). While we are on that above Lesson, my persons always found the phrase, ‘must be punished by the Nation”, unnerving. It wasn't until I fully understood that the statement ‘said ability’ was the same as ‘they are built that way, just not aware of it’, did I get the secret of the Truth or Square Lesson in the Knowledge to your Culture's Cipher. The Jewel is this: “For those who want to live right and know the truth, the two-edge sword of justice is like a knife cutting through all the dumb stuff and obstructions, while making the path clearly laid out. For those who don’t, the truth hurts like a "punishment" or "a sword above their head" (9,10/1-14). Therefore, those who don't keep and obey the truth, feel the stripes. This is not a birthright, this is something you work for and get better at. It takes refinement and is a cleansing process. Catharsis (emotional and psychological cleansing) is part of the process.

Equality means to be equal in everything, which means to treat her as you, because she is Divine as you are but in a congruent way (equal in value, different in how it expresses itself). Remember: “All powers experienced on Earth are as a result of the interaction between the Sun and the Moon. It takes both forces to bring about the Black Family and Nation. It is the cooperation of both our forces that makes the world go around, not the domination of one over the other, or the wave of discontented people who are ‘dissatisfied’ with their roles within our Nation.” If you don't like our Culture, leave. Don't try to poison the well, or dismantle what is older than the Sun, Moon and Stars. WE DON'T NEED YOU WHO SAY, “I STUDY THIS, BUT I’M NOT A PART OF THIS!” You depend on National Readers, but you insult us by saying you don't even agree with us enough to say you are a part of The NGE. Any of us who seriously entertain the writings of such persons, need to have our own heads examined. These people disqualify themselves, from the gate, as spoke persons by stating they are not a part of! Emancipate yourself from your own self imposed prisons. Stop making foolish statements like, “I wouldn't have to act-up if you didn't make me!” This denies the validity of the Build (8th) Degree in the one to forty (1-40), as well as the lack of understanding to the Born (9th), Justice (10th), and the Knowledge-Knowledge (11th) Degrees in the one to forty (1-40). Get it right: There is no excuse for Civilized People to act Uncivilized. Just a lack of refinement. Are you saying that other's are so powerful that they can make you do something or behave ‘other than yourself”? (12/1-36)

Get your Mind right. Let's “overtake Jerusalem” (5/1-14). Let's “take the Devil off our Planet in one day without falling victim to the Devil's Civilization” (38,39,40/1-40)! Let's recapture our Culture and leave the Devil's Civilization to its own destruction.

Like you said sometime ago Saladin, “Many people are looking for a right way to do wrong.” That's just bad economics G. When you think about it, words are well-honed paths like math, and your attitude concerning them is what makes them work in your life. Attitude makes all the difference in the world! By this we don't mean posturing or pontification, we mean the way you feel, see and approach things. It's all on how you handle or begin to deal with things, but please stop making excuses for your actions or blaming the cause on other people! Many times you'll find, if you are honest with your persons, you can really see the truth in the statement that "Earthquakes are caused by the Son of Man experimenting with high explosives; in fact, all that above is caused by the Son of Man.” (8/1-40) People need to stop looking up in the sky for the reasons why their lives are the way that they are or blaming others for the roots of their own difficulties; they need to look at themselves. You are the author of your life. Nobody makes you do anything. In most cases, there is no gun to your head, and even if it was, you still have a choice. It’s all about what you accept, what you allow and what you do or don't do within your life. As George Clinton of the Parliament-Funkadelic stated, “An attitude is all you need to rise and walk away [from a bad circumstance]. Inspire yourself. Your life is yours, it fits you like your skin.” You have to feel confident in the things you do and what better way can you feel confident in something than to know its based upon knowledge and truth. Doing what you feel can never bring this type of confidence. After all, knowledge is the foundation of all things in existence -- even lies are spin-offs of the truth!

“The root of CIVILIZATION IS IN ARABIA AT THE HOLY CITY OF MECCA which means WHERE KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM OF THE ORIGINAL MAN STARTED WHEN THE PLANET WAS FIRST FOUNDED (4/1-14)!” Recognize. The insecure feeling comes from not knowing where things are leading to. How could you when you don't have a firm foundation about your “origin in this world and worship things you know not” (14/1-40)? You can't base your like on feelings, hunches, rumors and words from your ‘yes-man buddies,’ and expect things to work out alright. You must have knowledge and a proper procedure(wisdom). Don't front. You will only act savage and uncivilized when People find out. Be real with your being and with others. Owning up is only part of it. Own up to your stuff and make real plans to change your ways. You are only fooling yourself if you “just talk” like you are. Everyone can see how phony you are but you. Allah has put a veil over your eyes for not choosing the truth. It chases up with a person. Roger Waters: ‘So you run and you run, to catch up with the Sun but it's sinking... waiting around to come up behind you again; Sun is the same, in a relative way -- but you're older -- shorter of breath and one day closer to death.” Persons like that need to stop taking paths which are not time-tested and founded on truth, knowledge and reality. They need to stop fashioning things that fit their cowardly natures. Even People who like to fight, are not always showing they are strong. Sometimes they are in misery and would like to make others feel miserable. Even if everyone would do what these people want, they would still be miserable because they are discontent.

There are a lot of fanciful and fantasized ideas out there amongst our People. A lot of it is founded by the ones who want to exalt Supreme Mathematics as the foundation and separate it from learning Lessons and the Goddess Complex. Both of these are foreign to what our teachings actually advocated and how the Father taught. I had this for 34 years now and I pretty much know the way it goes and who I've become by embracing it as my identity. If they want to experiment... fine... just don't call it five percent because it is not. Don't rely on our Foundation, because it is not. It is a new fangled idea, by those who “will not keep and obey the laws” (10/1-14), and therefore they have to be cut off from those who do. No one's telling them how to live, we are just telling them to take it elsewhere. They confuse our young. The most civilized way is always revealed when you ask, ‘What would God do in this situation?” If that is too abstract, then picture our righteous brother Jesus doing what you are thinking about doing. If it looks funky... that's probably because it is! “Are there any Gods other than Righteous?” (15/1-36) I'm sure a lot of Women, Earths and otherwise would like to field that question -- but before they do, remember how this started: The Father (Allah) was an Original Blackman and so was the Father of the Devil (Yacub). Their Movements were born from ‘dissatisfied’ Black People. Dissatisfied in the way we do things, and this brought about a change. When the Father taught in the Temple (#7), he was told to separate because it did not coincide with the NOI Curriculum at the time. He did and here-we-are. Notice that all of this falls under the Culture (4th) Degree. The question is: Is your Cultural ways Divine (Godly) or Destroy (Devilishment)? Only time will tell. A seed is assessed by the fruit that it bears. Only the best fruit gets to be called F.O.A. or F.O.E. (and that does not mean foe; although some Women we rest with are secretly just that). Women in The NGE are just as viable here as the Men but we do not advocate Feminism. That is a concept founded in the West and is largely controlled by lesbians who do not desire Men as their partners. Let them howl at the Moon, that is not our Culture. Our Culture “is older than the Sun, Moon, and Stars” (9/1-10), reflected in our Lessons, and indicative in the language that we speak. These others are “still searching for trillions of years” (10/1-40) like “savages in the pursuit of happiness”. (17/1-40)

Getting it together...

Recently the issues of Dating, Courting, or just being able to establish a Healthy Relationship has been a heavy topic amongst Ciphers across our Nation. Today I wanted to share some Perspective on this subject, and hopefully give some insight into a few things we will be able to benefit from when considering Companionships.

Courting
First and foremost, Courting is not an ‘Individual’ Honor System. It’s not based upon two People’s “word as bond” to eachother (11/1-14). Traditionally, Courting was/is a process used by Families to encourage, monitor, and cultivate the learning process of two People who’re interested in getting to know eachother. The purpose of getting to know eachother is to cee the potentiality for a Companionship. The basis and strength in the Courting process exists within the Family Units (of both interested parties) that structure/reinforce the process. It’s essentially the idea of two Families uniting to support another bonded Unit. In the Courting process, the highest value lies in the ‘Unified Families’, not two Individuals. Oftentimes when People think about Courting they imagine two People agreeing to get to know “only” eachother for the purpose of assessing a potential Life Companionship. In the process, they spend time out in public places exchanging pleasantries, and talking on the phone, while keeping a respectable distance from eachother. Then one day in the future, if they decide that they like eachother enough, they agree to become Life Companions. So for all intents and purposes, this Ideology of Courtship is fundamentally no different than Dating. The only real difference is that Dating may involve sexual contact.

Since the highest value lies in the ‘Unified Families’, the Courtship cannot effectively take place if there is no Family support. This is the major issue facing Gods/Earths who entertain the idea of a Courtship process; lack of structured/reliable Family support. So the first question that must be asked is: Who comprises your Family Unit that’s capable of supporting this Courting process? Is it your Enlightener and Gods/Earths you associate with? Is it Elder Gods/Earth Couples who’ve been together 10+ years? Is it People in your Community you consider “family”? Another important question to ask is: What standards are you using to define People as reputable Family Members to support the Courting process? Are your standards based upon physical family (Parents or family members), even though they may know very little about the Culture you live? Do you base these standards on any God/Earth who knows 120? Are your standards based upon the consensus of your Local Parliament? So although some Gods/Earths have a desire to express a Courting process, much more consideration needs to be given to WHO is qualified to support it, WHY are they qualified, and WHAT standards are you using as qualifications? A person’s ability/inability to coherently address these fundamental questions about the Courtship process will ultimately reveal their true basis for desiring that Companionship. One thing you may realize is that their process has all the dressings of a Courtship, yet lacks the basic Principles, Values, and Resources to actually be one. In otherwords, it’s nothing more than a self diluted Dating façade. On the other hand, they may have clearly thought out the Family Dynamics and recognize the benefit in Courting, yet have not solidified functional Family support to uphold the process. Either way you look at it, Courting is only as effective as the Family Units willing and capable of supporting the process.

Dating
First and foremost, Dating is ultimately an ‘Individual’ Honor System. Traditionally, Dating was/is a process used by Individuals who desire a Companionship. Dating is a Companionship where some of the rules of engagement were decided from the beginning, modified during realtime.. Keep in Mind that within the Dating process, there is no underlying intention to be lifelong Companions. Dating may remain the Status Quo for the remainder of that Companionship, or it may elevate into an Engagement and possibly a Marriage. In Dating, the two Individuals set up the rules of engagement, whereas in the Courting process, the rules of engagement are based upon the protocol of Family Tradition. Since these rules of engagement are set up by the two Individuals in the Dating process, the guidelines are basically discussed/revealed as they go along; in realtime. Thus the highest value lies in the ‘Individuals’ making a decision to ultimately be together, and the purpose of them being together is based upon what they decide as a Couple. So the “WHO is qualified to support it, WHY are they qualified, and WHAT standards are you using as qualifications?” is based upon the Individuals and whatever information they may get from other people, places and things.

Because of a basic lack of trust (‘honor’) within this process for many, and lack of endurance and/or tolerance to deal with the various “guideline unknowns” that come up throughout the course of that Companionship, there is often a tendency to categorize the entire process of Dating as flawed. While in the Courting process two People (and their Families) get to know a great deal about the other person (and their Families) prior to entering into a Companionship, Dating is more of a ‘trial and error’ method of getting to know the other person while participating in a Companionship. There is nothing inherently wrong with the Dating process, as long as ‘honor’ is a fundamental Value practiced by both Parties (“word as bond” to eachother; 11/1-14), and there is a high degree of 'Specificity' (Definition and Article) when it comes to defining/clarifying the guidelines of that Companionship.


Where’s the ‘Recourse’ for these methods?
The major difference you’ll notice in Courting and Dating is their system of ‘Recourse’ when problems arise in the Companionship. Because the Courting process involves Families who have an interest in supporting the Companionship, these Units are available resources for support when problems arise. In Dating, there may or may not be Family support when problems arise, it’s basically on the Individuals to access whatever resources they have available in addition to themselves. This does not mean that simply because a Couple ‘Courted’ that they will automatically have access to all the answers, or because a Couple ‘Dated’ they automatically don’t have access to answers. What this does mean is that in any relationship it’s important to consider the methods a ‘Recourse’ we have available if things start to unravel. I’ve ceen some Courtships unravel simply because the Family Units supporting it were dysfunctional. I’ve also ceen Companions flourish, who started off Dating, because they valued Family Unity, becoming the actual Unit a Courtship could actually rely on! Anyway, in any Companionship we must always consider the system of ‘Recourse’ we have when we go through trials and tribulations. Traditionally, this is one of the main reasons why Gods/Earths generally did not and often still don’t get Married under the Government. The reasoning behind this is, “If problems occur in that Marriage, we’re relying upon the Government to mediate. The same Government that has historically shown it’s interest in policing Policies that undermine the Freedom, Justice, and Equality for Black/Non-White People.” This is not to say that there are some constructive forms of ‘Recourse’ built within the Governmental structure that provides ways to protect/uphold the rules & regulations of a Companionship. Ultimately, Courtship was designed as a ‘Family Policing’ process, while Dating was designed as an ‘Individual Policing’ process. Whether these examination processes culminate with a Marriage under the auspices of the Government, or a Marriage in the Mind type of Divine Union without the sanctity of the Government, it doesn’t change the fact that a system of ‘Recourse’ must exist when that Companionship goes through trials and tribulations.

So in conclusion, I think before we start talking about the method of forging a Companionship, we need to give more thought about the Family Dynamics that will/won't support it. Regardless if we want to Court or Date, our support system and it’s method of ‘Recourse’ are the most vital components to consider; Companionships aren't Social Islands. Just because someone claims the same Cultural Worldview as us, IT DOES NOT MEAN you won’t need a Governmental method of ‘Recourse’ if that Companionship doesn’t work out. I hear all the time about so-called Gods claiming to be all about growth & development, yet they aren’t financially supporting their child(ren)! In this situation, our Cultural Value of “word is bond and bond is life” (11/1-14) is obviously not an effective method of ‘Recourse’ -because those empty words are not providing food, clothing, and shelter for their child(ren). Some People say that Child Support isn’t Nation building, and I can understand their sentiments. Many of our People believe that “there is no unrighteousness” (37/1-40) in this Government, and regardless of this Government’s historical record towards Black/Non-White People, we can still rely on this system to do the right thing. In their Mind, they really don’t trust the mutual guidelines of a Companionship unless Caucasians are fundamentally involved. This is and continues to be a fundamental problem amongst our People. On the other hand, we also have a problem with Brothers (and Sisters), who even consider themselves “Conscious”, making a choice to abandon their Parental responsibilities when their Companionship doesn’t work out. So in this situation, not prioritizing the daily needs of our child(ren) also isn’t Nation building.

What does it come down to?
As two People get to know eachother, prior to (Courting) or within (Dating) a Companionship, it’s an examination process of the ‘Culture’ and sense of ‘Integrity’ they share or don’t share in common. Our ‘Cultural Integrity’ reveals WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, and HOW we think and what we will/won’t do. It is this Family supported (Courting) or Individual (Dating) ‘Cultural Integrity’ that ultimately determines if our Family Units stay together, and if our methods of ‘Recourse’ are effective when our Companionships go through trials and tribulations. This ‘Cultural Integrity’ or lack there of, is always reflected within the supportive Family Units, and within the Individuals. Is this not how our Companionships met success or failure in Classical Times?! Was it not the ‘Integrity’ of our Principles, Values, and Priorities that supported/undermined our ‘people activities’ (Culture)?! Unfortunately we, as Black/Non-White People, have “been made other than ourselves” (12/1-36) through Centuries of global oppression, disenfranchisement, and cultural genocide at the hands of Global White Supremacy. Many of the problems we collectively suffer are trans-generational, and “many of us” are striving to make sense of this baggage and do the right thing! (13/1-40) Some of us aren’t trying to resolve our issues and bring this baggage to a Companionship with hopes that the clock will take care of everything… At the end of the day, whether we call our approach Courting, Dating or etc.., it will ultimately be our Cultural Integrity that determines our ability to stand the test of time.

Maybe as a People, it’s collectively time to rethink our approach outside of the scope of Traditional Courting/Dating altogether; an approach designed to specifically address the unique issues that face us a People and as a Nation. Maybe this approach is already intrinsic to the Cultural Worldview we collectively claim. Maybe it has nothing to do with approaches and procedures at all. Maybe it has everything to do with how committed we really are to “giving all we have, and doing all within our power to” cultivate, maintain, and perpetuate a Companionship. (40/1-40) Maybe, just maybe, all of this “talk” about Courting and Dating is really just fear, laziness, or defiance to actually ‘work on’ a Life Companionship by applying and living in accordance with those Principles/Values that are already intrinsic to our Cultural Worldview… -shrugs- Whatever it may be, it’s important that we share with eachother those things that have been successful and unsuccessful for us in forging a Companionship. Through comparing these notes, we, and our progeny, will be better equipped to establish healthy, sustainable Family Units NOW and in THE FUTURE!

Anniversary

9/30/1995 marks my Official Born Day into this Nation, and today I celebrate ‘15 Years’ of not simply having b.u.t. knowledging 120! A lot has changed since I was that young, bright eyed, Newborn in College striving to learn about who and what I was. So today I wanted to take time to share with you some of the things I’ve learned along the way.

1. Ever since I first started this Journey I NEVER ceased to be a Student. I’ve never taken the posture that People can’t tell me shit! People have and sometimes feel like they can’t teach me anything, b.u.t. that’s because they cee how much I already know about things, so they ASSUME I probably know all about that too. It’s never because of my attitude. ‘15 Years’ later you’ll still catch me at the library early in the morning doing research, spending money on literature, and delegating my time/attention towards things that’ll help me help others! THIS DOES NOT MEAN that living out this Culture has been a walk in the park! Lol I’ve been homeless on more than one occasion by choice AND by circumstance, I’ve experienced the pain of dysfunctional family relationships, I’ve lost/gained Companionships, People have tried to publically defame my Character, I’ve gotten into physical altercations, etc.. ALL OF THESE things have happened while I’ve had 120. So gaining this Knowledge DOES NOT mean we won’t have anymore problems. What this does mean is that now we should have a different approach when striving to solve our problems. One very important Lesson that’s worked for me is this: Always remain a Student because personally, there's always something we’re gonna be either "blind, deaf and/or dumb" to (14/1-40)! Because if we don’t understand humility, we will continuously be humbled.

2. In ’15 Years’, the People I’ve come across who’ve expressed some interest in this Culture: 85% of the time People are just Cultural Tourists, and 10% of the time they want to learn so they can “try to master” People (4/1-14). Being of the 5% means that it’s rare to come across People who truly want to learn and become responsible for having Knowledge of Self. I often felt like I wasted a lot of time on People for them to only walk away from our interaction with a Righteous Name for their child, not eating ham anymore, or saying “Peace God!” to me. I’ve ceen People stuck on the same Lesson for a decade! I’ve met females who “try to learn” 120 ONLY because they consider me the prize at the bottom of the cereal box. I’ve met dudes who were sharp with their Degrees the first week they got out of jail, and a month later they’re ducking me because they forgot almost everything. I’ve ceen damn near everything, and one very important Lesson I’ve learned is this: Don’t take it personal that People aren’t learning to fully embrace this Culture because most of the time they won’t. Also, growth & development doesn’t happen over night; it takes consistent work over a period of time of striving to "give all we have" and "doing all within our power" to live out this Culture (40/1-40)!!

3. There is a BIG difference between Gods/Earths that put more of an emphasis on having Supreme Mathematics, compared to Gods/Earths that put more of an emphasis on knowing 120. While Supreme Mathematics teach us about basic Principles, 120 teaches us about the Procedures, Rules & Regulations that uphold/undermine these Principles. It’s the difference between Mathematics and Living Mathematics. One of the main things I’ve noticed is that Gods/Earths that are lacking in the 120 Dept. have difficulty when it comes to recognizing/adhering to certain Cultural Procedures, Rules & Regulations. For example, a God that may be all about Supreme Mathematics may make a blanket statement like, “Knowledge is to look, listen, observe, and respect”, yet know nothing about how “Trick-Knowledge” functions as defined within the (4/1-14), or the Duty of a Civilized Person in regards to teaching those who are uncivilized the “Knowledge of Himself” (18/1-40). An Earth who’s just about Supreme Mathematics may consistently talk about ‘Build or Destroy’, yet won’t have any insight into this Principle’s relationship to, “Why does the Devil try to keep our People apart from their own Social Equality?” (8/1-14) or “What makes rain, hail, snow, and earthquakes?” (8/1-40). What I’ve learned from observing this is: Knowing Numbers (Supreme Mathematics) does not mean a Person has the ability to Compute or identify Mathematical Procedures, Rules & Regulations -ESPECIALLY when they don’t know/study Lessons that identify these Procedures, Rules & Regulations. Supreme Mathematics is only 1/8th of our Cultural Curriculum, and this means there is still another 87.5% that a Person needs to actually learn about this Way of Life!

4. When I first got Knowledge of Self I wanted everyone to learn! I still hold the same position b.u.t. now I respect the fact that People have a choice to learn just like I did. So now I’ve learned to be wiser with offering unsolicited “cultural” advice! Lol 10 years ago I did a lot of debating –which is very healthy exercise when it comes to positive intellectual discourse. Nowadays I realize that you can’t argue with somebody’s ‘belief system’. Why? Because that’s what they believe, and belief doesn’t need evidence to support it! I can believe I’m Denzel Washington right now and nothing anybody says/does can make me change my Mind. No matter crazy it sounds to anybody, that’s what I believe. So I’ve learned to say what I need to say to People, make sure they cee/hear me clearly, and then respectfully leave it alone. What I learned from this is: Everyone has the Right, to find out what’s Right, on their own. WE DID, and everyone else deserves the same respect.

5. For a while I’ve honestly been in denial about the Role I’ve been playing in People's lives, and how some People cee me. Over time I’ve reluctantly grown into somewhat of a Public Figure within/outside of this Nation because of the various Projects/Activities I’ve done and continue to do On/Offline. Much of this is based upon the popularity of my Youtube Channel ‘A.S.I.A. TV’. Because of this, I’ve had to modify different things in my life in order to respond/meet the demands of the People. This has obviously created some challenges for me when it comes to a Companionship. First and foremost, a lot of Women I’ve met and meet are usually unprepared to handle all the attention I receive, and find it hard to accept my responsibility to the People. Well let me rephrase that: A lot of Women I’ve met and meet are usually unprepared to handle all the attention I receive from other Women, and they find it hard to accept my responsibility to other Women too. Of course all of this attention is not positive, and these demands from People aren’t all Righteous, b.u.t. that’s something that came along with the territory too. From striving to consistently respond to multiple emails/postage mail/messages/texts/postings/comments, stopping by to cee Mothers that are having issues with their child(ren), receiving phone calls at 3am from places like Indonesia (because it’s 2pm there), attending Events Women have invited me to, or just building with a Woman who simply appreciates my insight, etc.., a Woman must be VERY secure within herself, confident about what she brings to the table, and have a great deal of trust in the “word we’ve made bond” (11/1-14) to eachother in order to be my Queen! One thing I’ve learned and continually learn from this experience is: Love Hell or Right! For a Woman to truly share my ‘Love’, she must be willing and able to accept the attention/demands that come along with me being a Public Figure. This can feel like ‘Hell’ because her EGO, self image, insecurities, trust issues, education, etc.., will naturally be exposed and tested in a way she’s probably never experienced before. In order for our Companionship to work out ‘Right’, these are conditions we must have the strength to endure! So being in this Position, I’ve also learned a lot about the importance of Patience, Integrity, Sobriety, and Self Discipline.

6. There have been many People in these years that have contributed to my growth & development. Some People I’ve spent a great deal of time with, and others were only there for a moment. Most critical to my growth into this Nation was my Enlightener. If it wasn't for him taking the time to walk me through 120, my Journey would have taken an entirely different course. Through his Enlightener I've been able to continue my Education, and sharing his 34 years of Cultural experience in this Nation has also been a vital component of my personal growth & development. So when you look at me, I am the sum total of all my relationships and experiences. Of course I’m the proverbial “24th Scientist” that ultimately determines how my History/Koran will be written, b.u.t. I’ve always had a support system. With that said, I just want to give a shout out to everyone who’s helped me and continue to help me grow! It is my desire that when I leave this Planet, my personal contributions towards Civilization will help have made this World a better place! To all of you who are taking the time to read this, who are too numerous to mention, THANK YOU! You are much appreciated!

Agent Provocateurs

"Traditionally, an Agent Provocateur (plural: Agents Provocateurs, French for "inciting agent(s)") is a person employed by the police or other entity to act undercover to entice or provoke another person to commit an illegal act. More generally, the term may refer to a person or group that seeks to discredit or harm another by provoking them to commit a wrong or rash action." -Wikipedia

There are A LOT of misconceptions about our Nation, all of which we have a responsibility for correcting. Sometimes it’s enough to simply do what we’ve been doing, and People can cee that these are misconceptions. Sometimes People can’t cee, so we gotta make sure they hear where we are culturally coming from. When People have learned some dumb things about our Nation from People who claim to be Gods/Earths, it’s important for us to address these misconceptions intelligently. If we don’t take the initiative to address misconceptions about our Nation today because we have this “that’s what they dealing with” attitude about another God/Earth’s Cipher, we will be held to that standard tomorrow! For example, if the majority of so-called Gods you know are dead beat criminals and you never take a stand to disassociate yourself from their behavior, People will judge you according to what they cee them doing. These misconceptions will affect your quality of life on many levels. First and foremost it’s a public safety issue for you and your family! Secondly, it can become an issue at your place of employment or other environments you go. Thirdly, your association with these dudes will negatively affect your relationship with others.

A few months back I looked on the Front Page of our Local Newspaper ‘The Niagara Gazette’, and the Buffalo News and saw a picture of a dude a know who was being charged under the Federal “Drug Kingpin Laws”. For those who’re unaware, the minimal sentencing under the Federal “Drug Kingpin Laws” is 20 years! I met this dude in the late 1990’s because he used to deal with a female who lived in the same Apartment Complex as me. Small talk led to longer talk and he eventually found out I was in The NGE. Somewhere along his travels he had learned alittle about us b.u.t. he was not actually a part of this Nation. I would categorize him as a watered down Ghostface; closely associated with the Math, b.u.t. not really down with it like that. Anyway, we kept in tune and would speak in transit and over time he approached me about teaching and I agreed. So he gave me his address and I eventually began to teach Civilization Classes in his basement twice a month for about 13 neighborhood boys. This lasted for about 6 months and then I hadn’t heard anything from him for a while until I would again cee him in transit, years later. Fast forward several years and the next thing I know I cee him plastered on the front Page of two Newspapers talking about how he was the brain of a Blood Sect here in Western New York. When questioned about his involvement in Drugs and Gang Activity he apparently didn’t deny it, yet corrected them by saying, “I am the Leader of a Gang, but it’s not the Bloods”. I can’t imagine what else this dude had to say, how long the Feds were watching him. Also, I can only hope that the criminal enterprising he was doing has nothing to do with what he and his “private soldiers” (13/1-14) were learning from my naïve ass! -smh- So when I cee so-called Gods/Earths using the Internet to promote sex & violence, post pictures brandishing weapons, and glorify crime, it always makes me question their level of intelligence and sometimes who they’re working for! I mean, I really hope they’re not that ignorant to think that People, ESPECIALLY Government Agencies, won’t make a move on them because their Internet Activity! Just last year my nephew got 25 to life for the murder and robbery of somebody. Part of the evidence the DA had was some bootleg security camera footage THAT DID NOT SHOW anything but a group of youth, which included my nephew, walking towards the location this dude was killed, and then running off. The other evidence the DA used in Court against him was…, get this, “a burnt copy of a CD” my nephew made some time after the incident. The CD was admitted into Court because it contained a Song that supposedly had him spittin’ a verse bragging about how he robbed and murdered somebody! -smh- So like I said, I really question the Agenda of so-called Gods/Earths who’re clearly doing things on the Internet that goes beyond Cyber Bullying, b.u.t. can really get them charged with severe Federal/State Crimes. Like in the case of my nephew, claiming to have done something, even if was in the form of Creative Art such as Music and Writing, can and will be held against you in a Court of Law. And those of you who think it’s alright to be entertained by these Agent Provocateurs, your Internet Activity is being tracked the same way the Feds can track the books you’re taking out at the Library, WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE, to cee if you’re compiling the literary ingredients to make a bomb! If you’re still a skeptic, take a moment to Google ‘Computer Forensic Science’ and also ‘The Patriot Act II’.

Because I am actively involved in my Community and specifically work with the Youth, there are many People, Places, and Things I do not associate with because it doesn’t coincide with my “determined idea” (24/1-40), and it undermines my ability to be “successful in all my undertakings” (29/1-40). So I’m very conscious of the People I associate with, the Places I go, and the Things I do. Our Nation is already considered a STG (Security Threat Group) throughout many Correctional Facilities in America, and at oen point our National Flag was proudly posted on the ADL (Anti Defamation League) Website under ‘Hate on Display’. If you consider our association with the Religion of Islam, and the Anti-Islamic sentiments being expressed all throughout America, you can cee why it’s important to be conscious of our Public Image as Gods/Earths. Those People who have an, “I don’t give a fuck” Attitude and advocate doing whatever you want whenever you want obviously have nothing of significance going on in their life, and don’t really understand what’s demanded of them as Gods/Earths. If they did have something of real significance going on, then they’d be mindful enough to do what’s necessary to Provide, Protect, and Maintain these things that are important! This means they would be much more considerate about how their words/actions can potentially harm or destroy their ability to Provide for, Protect, and Maintain these things! It’s only a matter of time before we loose our ability to Provide, Protect, and Maintain things that we claim to be significant (important), when we’re chronically inconsiderate…

In closing, I want to reemphasize the importance of addressing the misconceptions about our Nation, by showing and proving what we’re really about! As Civilized People, we must always strive to model Righteous behavior that our Human Family can look up to and find the proper guidance in. It’s our duty to lead People in the right direction, not “easily lead them in the wrong direction.” (14/1-40). Sometimes People act uncivilized because they enjoy the drama! They’re no different than Elementary School children who love to watch fights. To these People, they’re just playing when they disrespect People or glorify behavior that isn’t “allwise right and exact” (1/1-40), b.u.t. they’ve obviously never made the connection between how “playing” (22/1-40) can lead to "manufacturing the Devil" (23-36/1-40)… This has nothing to do with trying to be a goody two shoes, thinking we’re better than People, or being Self Righteous. It’s simply about having higher expectations for ourselves, and the integrity to live up to them! Higher expectations that serve the purpose of helping us treat ourselves, eachother, and the Planet not only better, b.u.t. Right!! Most People hope for things to go Right in their life. Even the most inconsiderate and ignorant amongst us want things to go Right for them in their life! So if we truly want things to go Right for us in our life, then it’s important for us to invest in doing things Right. Yes it’s a task FOR ALL OF US who consider ourselves to be Gods/Earths and Civilized People. And if you’re not up to this task of striving to do things Right, then we’ll only serve the purpose of “causing trouble amongst the Righteous People” (4/1-14).
