The G.A.O.T.U. The Grand Architects Of The Universe



The G.A.O.T.U.

The Grand Architects Of The Universe

*This appears in Chapter 11 "A.E.A.O.N.M.S vs. A.A.O.N.M.S" of my book Eyes Wide Shut: The Science of Secret Societies:

Since the late 1700's, 1784 to be exact, to this day, the legitimacy of Black Freemasonry and Shriners has been legally challenged by White Freemasons and Shriners on a State and Federal level here in America. In many cases these legal challenges were upheld in a court of law and these white Freemasons or Shriners were able to successfully get injunctions against blacks from using their constitution, names/titles, rituals, emblems, constitution and regalia publicaly or privately in what became commonly known among Freemasonry as black "clandestine" [fraudulent] masons, lodges and Shriner temples. For example, on June 3rd, 1929 the Texas Supreme Court decided that the Negro [Black] "Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North and South America and its Jurisdictions" [A.E.A.O.N.M.S] were biting the White "Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine for North America." Even though this suit began in 1918 in Texas, it had grown to restrain and prevent blacks from imitating white temples throughout the entire United States. It was eventually decreed by the court that the A.E.A.O.N.M.S were restrained from using their name, any other name or distinctive words which can be considered a colorable imitation of the [white] Shiners.  It was also decreed that blacks couldn't use the words "temple" or "shrine", wear or display as an insignia or emblems of membership of any society or organization, corporate or otherwise, any of the emblems, insignia, paraphernalia, badges, jewels or head-covering, etc., which can be considered a colorable imitation of the [white] Shiners.   Since [white] American Freemasons colonial beginning and their [white] Shriner 1872 inception, there are literally hundreds of legal cases against blacks who have strived to 'freely' set up their own lodges and temples or be 'accepted' into white lodges and temples; the irony of being Free and Accepted, huh? There are also various legal cases of black Freemasons and Shriners taking other black Freemasons and Shriners for the same damn reasons: check out the case of Prince Hall Grand Lodge vs. the John A. Bell Grand Lodge.

Yes many blacks argue that Prince Hall, a black Freemason did it first when he got permission to set up African Lodge No. 459 in North America via a charter from Fredrick, Duke of Cumberland, Grand Master of the Most Ancient and Honorable Society of Free and Accepted Ancient Masons on September 29, 1784. This was prior to George Washington and his working class cronies getting a charter from England. Yeah I've even heard the argument that black Shriners technically did it first because white Shriners were only a voluntary 'unincorporated' association since the 1870's while blacks got legally incorporated in Illinois in 1893, then incorporated again after it was abandoned in 1901 as a fraternal and charitable association under the Act of Congress of May 5, 1870. I can see the legitimacy of these claims and the idea that whites don't possess the exclusive or superior right to use the constitution, names/titles, rituals, emblems, constitution and regalia of Freemasonry or Shriners. All of it is originally derived or falsified from first world people; the original fathers and mothers of civilization, and white Freemasons and Shriners cannot chronologically, genetically, geographically or archeologically stake claim to that. Yet it's also important to keep in mind that the legal courts these legitimacy cases are tried in, the color of law and their assessment that some of us seek validation from is the legal arm of a system and status quo that's dominantly controlled by whites. This control, in the form of nepotism and white privilege, has allowed America to historically and legally establish superior rights for some of its citizenry and an inferior status of Slavery, Indian Boarding Schools, Segregation, Japanese Internment Camps, Racial Profiling, Women's Suffrage and etc. for others. In other words, the same way you historically had people of color fighting, assimilating, imitating and trying to integrate to be acknowledged, validated and accepted by those sitting in a public judgment seat, you had people of color 'privately' fighting, assimilating and imitating and trying to integrate to be acknowledged, validated and accepted by those sitting in a private judgment seat. People seem to only talk about black people openly trying to integrate white movie theaters, hotels, restaurants, schools and etc. Naw, you also had a simultaneous secretive movement of black people trying to integrate white masonic lodges and various other exclusively white auxiliary organizations including the shrine. Here's the kicker: you oftentimes had various black leaders outwardly promoting segregation, black self reliance and presenting themselves as black nationalists who were already secret initiates or trying to be initiated into some masonic lodge or other auxiliary organization that's legally considered a colorable imitation of its white superior counterpart or beholden to a white superior governing body.

In this high time of #BlackLivesMatter activism and people of color positioning themselves to be socially conscious talking heads to bang on the system, all of this is very important to consider. Why? Because everybody is not who they say they are. This living contradiction amongst some people of color has been a consistent historical narrative here in America, or wherever you see colonialism around the globe. As a minority group in this capitalistic society, some of us measure success as individual accomplishment, how much money we can make and how high we can climb a social ladder and get close to those who print the capital and made the ladder. In the process, some of us, often secretly, join certain organizations, have certain associations, establish certain relationships and even change certain ideals in order to "so-called" be a part of the club. Don't get me wrong, ambition, having aspirations and setting goals is not negative in and of itself. There are many people I know who are doing very positive things personally and collectively. It's when people have no integrity or compromise their integrity to get money and ascend a social ladder when it becomes negative. At one point in time the black church, social clubs and Freemasonry were the only game in town. As much as was humanly possible, some of us used these platforms to do for self while striving to maintain our cultural integrity. Today, with the illusion of integration, many of these houses of worship, clubs and organizations are only a shell of their former self and holding people of color back more than healing and helping them. With the creation of the Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives (OFBCI), changes in the law of how nonprofit organizations can legally operate and the modification of bylaws and unspoken membership rules/regulations of certain organizations, people of color who are not striving to do for self are even more beholden to the legal arm of a system and status quo that's still dominantly controlled by whites. What do I propose? Definitely not the attitude some of us have that, "If we can't beat them, lets join them -and use what hookups they got to succeed or bring knowledge to the lodge or temple and make it better." I know brothers who joined the lodge or temple with those idealistic intentions only to realize after the fact that 1.) So-called hookups are limited to when, how and if they choose to hook.., you.. up and 2.) You're not going to walk in and change an institution and ideology that's beholden to a white Masonic and Shriner tradition that's formally been in tact for a combination of over 400 years.  If our goal is genuinely cultural freedom then we must make choices to remove the vices and entanglements to anything that's restricts our ability to live our culture free. This means we must not join any organizations, have associations, forge relationships and even change certain ideals that will get us more entangled. That's like saying we're striving to save money to buy a house and then turning around buying a new car with a lease that's crippling our pockets. That's backwards. Some entanglements are more difficult to remove than others. Some people are striving to be more entrepreneurial and work for themselves, those are the employment entanglements they're dealing with. Others are investing in solar paneling or live off of the grid. Still others may be fighting addiction while others are figuring out ways to create a homeschooling consortium for their community. Whatever those entanglements may be, the struggle to free ourselves from them is worth it, don't you think?

Peace,

Albert Pike 33 Degree

“One of the most influential American Freemasons”

Pike Dreams

This Article is not an Albert Pike Expose, nor is it a trip down Illuminati Lane. This Article is about the difference between advocating Social Justice vs Social Status and knowing how to properly recognize the difference. I use Albert Pike as a model to illustrate this because his varied background provides a great social study for us to recognize these differences. The reasoning is to get us, especially Black/Brown people, to learn to think more critically about the Sociopolitical platform of Societies, Organizations, Fraternities, Clubs, Businesses and Institutions before we join or become affiliated with them.

To give you a basic backdrop of the social and political factors that played a significant role on in Albert Pike's life:

• He settled in Little Rock Arkansas in the early 1830’s becoming a Teacher and Writer for the Arkansas Advocate Newspaper.
• He became the owner of the Advocate in 1835 and used it as a vehicle to promote views of the Whig Party that he was affiliated with. The Whig Party comes from the Scottish Word 'whiggamore' and were known as American Patriots, anti-Democratic and took many of the stances that would be considered ‘far-right’ today. The Whigs were succeeded by the Republican Party.  
• He passed the Arkansas Bar in 1837 and became the first reporter of the Arkansas Supreme Court writing notes on points in court decisions, publishing and indexing the court’s opinions. In 1842, he published the Arkansas Form Book, providing Lawyers with models for the different kinds of motions to be filed in the state’s courts.
•    He left the Whig Party because of their failure to take a unified pro-slavery stance. Pike then joined the Know Nothing Party. The Know Nothing Party’s platform was xenophobic (fear or dislike of foreigners/outsiders), anti-Catholic, against immigration/naturalization and often violent. This Party was considered semi-secret because members were instructed to reply, “I know nothing” If asked about the Party’s activities. To join the Know Nothings you had to be a Protestant Male born of British ancestry.
•   In 1850 Pike became a Master Mason (Blue Lodge) at Western Star Lodge No. 2 in Little Rock, Arkansas. He received his York Rite (Red Lodge) Degrees between 1850-1853. He received his Scottish Rite (Green Lodge) Degrees in Charleston SC in 1853 from Albert G. Mackey. Pike received the 33rd Degree on April 25, 1857 and was elected Sovereign Grand Commander of the Supreme Council of Scottish Rite’s Southern Jurisdiction in 1859 and held that office for 32 years until his death. *Note the Red Lodge (York Rite) is a religious orientated wing of the Masonic Body and the Green Lodge (Scottish Rite) is a military orientated wing of the Masonic Body.
•  Pike was pro-slavery and a Confederate General during the Civil War from 1861-1862. He supported Succession from the Union and published a pamphlet in 1861 on that position titled State or Province, Bond or Free? In regards to acceptance of Blacks as Masonic Brothers, Pike was quoted as saying in a 1875 letter to his brother, “took my obligation to White men, not to Negroes. When I have to accept Negroes as brothers or leave Masonry, I shall leave it.” (History and Evolution of Freemasonry 1954, page 329).
• Pike was said to be an active member of the Arkansas Branch of the Klu Klux Klan (KKK); a Movement founded in 1865 in Pulaski, TN by six Confederate Army Veterans. There are no public records of his involvement with the KKK. However, the book ‘Ku Klux Klan’, written by Walter Fleming (1905) states that Pike was the Chief Judicial Officer of the Klan. Also, the ‘Authentic History Ku Klux Klan, 1865-77’, written by Susan Lawrence Davis (1924) cites Pike as the Grand Dragon of the Klan for the state of Arkansas and Chief Judicial Officer appointed by Klan founder, Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest.  
•  From 1867-1868, Pike worked in Memphis, TN (about 4 hours away from Pulaski, TN) as editor of the Memphis Daily. He also established a new Law Partnership with Confederate General Charles W. Adams. In 1868 Pike wrote in the Tennessee Daily Appeal, “With negroes for witnesses and jurors, the administration of justice becomes a blasphemous mockery. A Loyal League of negroes can cause any white man to be arrested, and can prove any charges it chooses to have made against him. The disenfranchised people of the South can find no protection for property, liberty or life, except in secret association. We would unite every white man in the South, who is opposed to negro suffrage, into one great Order of Southern Brotherhood, with an organization complete, active, vigorous, in which a few should execute the concentrated will of all, and whose very existence should be concealed from all but its members."
•  The Shriners, of which Pike was not a recorded Member, is a Masonic Body (founded in 1870) is not recognized as an appellant Masonic Body in the State of Arkansas. Reference: Article Prior to 2000, in order to join the Shriners a person had to complete either the Scottish Rite and York Rite degrees of Masonry. Nowadays any Master Mason can join and they’ve streamlined Shrine Membership. William J. Simmons, founder of the 2nd Klu Klux Klan and Imperial Wizard was a Freemason and publisher of the KKK ritual handbook called the 'Kloran'.
• In 1871, Pike published the 900 + page Masonic handbook known as Morals and Dogma of the Ancient andAccepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. Although Pike published other Masonic Works, Morals and Dogma is solidified Pike as the Philosophical Father of American Freemasonry to this day this book is traditionally given to many new Initiates of a Masonic Lodge.
•  By 1888, there were 7,210 Shriners in 48 Shrine Temples in the United States and Canada. Although the Shriners are said to not be connected to Islam and the Order originated from the imagination of Freemasons Physician Walter M. Fleming and Actor William J. Florence, in the "Former" History of the Imperial Council of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine it states that "the Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine was instituted by the Caliph Ali in 656 AD" (Page 36-40). Reference: History
•  Pike is still the only Confederate General to have an outdoor statue displayed in Washington, D.C. and the Statue is at Judiciary Square.

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, do these images/symbols associated with Albert Pike's legacy make sociopolitical sense?

Contrary to what many people would like us to believe about Albert Pike, he was far from double-headed and his affiliations/views were consistent throughtout his lifetime. Now, upon closer examination of Albert Pike's colorful legacy and affiliations what does this tell you about his Sociopolitical Worldview? Can you say that the allegiances he forged and partnerships he formed were for Social Justice or a Social Status (Quo)? More importantly, are the allegiances we forge and partnerships we form for Social Justice or a Social Status (Quo)?

"When you look at an Organization with so many Members at the top of the Socioeconomic Food Chain, in so many Industries, do you NOT THINK they'll do whatever is necessary to put mechanisms in place to protect their group interests, it's members and maintain their Status Quo?" -Life

I received an anonymous email the other day from a 'Jane Doe' who asked me, "Can Gods and Earths become Freemasons?" My response to her, if it was a her, was that people can choose to do whatever they want yet the question is what is their reasoning for those decisions and are they Right & Exact? If a God/Earth is truly invested and committed to our common cause and recognizes that 'God' or 'Earth' is the apex of their identity, there is no need to 'become' anything else. I'm not saying that we shouldn't forge alliances with others. It's important for others to add-on with us and to share a common cause as long as it doesn't fundamentally compromise what we teach or what we will achieve as a Nation. Unfortunately, there are alot of Gate Keepers; people and groups that are only interested in maintaining and upholding the Status Quo, not true Social Justice. So for us to claim a sense of Social Justice and simultaneously join or affiliate ourselves people and Societies, Organizations, Fraternities, Clubs, Businesses and Institutions that are maintainers of the Status Quo it neutralizes us from bringing about any effective change. Especially when they're 'Special Interest Groups' we as Black/Brown people didn't have a voice in founding or don't have a voice in modifying their Mission Statement.  Albert Pike was a man of many faces. Yet when you look at his affiliations and the social and political factors that played a significant role in his life, you'll cee what his Determined Idea was. Obviously all of these Political Parties, Societies and Good Ole Boy Networks provided common, consistent resources for him. If not, he couldn't have used them, he wouldn't have been involved in them nor would there be any traces of his affiliation. Among other things, this Article shows you that being a White Protestant, Freemason, Shriner, Confederate, Anti-Immigrationist Klansman is not contradictory and there's obviously a place in all of these White Special Interests Groups for someone who has these views to flourish and prosper... This Article also shows that there are built in mechanisms in place that will undermine, neutralize and dismantle any progress towards true Social Justice because that was never the objective of some of these White Special Interests Groups from the beginning. I say "some" because Freemasonry (and Shriners) was established for the purpose of raising upright men (and women who belong to masonic bodies). Yet like one 33 Degree White Mason/Shriner once told me directly, "In the 32 years I've been a Mason there is only one flaw that I've found. It's made up of human beings and you can never say what you'll do in a given situation!" So after all this conversation about Freemasonry making good men better and how the working tools help build a perfected man he not only tells me how human "they" are and how "they" will fall short b.u.t. how they ultimately accept these falls/flaws as a part of who "they" are. (9,10/1-14) That sounds like "Hug Your Imperfections", "Proceed With Caution" or worst yet "Enter At Your Own Risk" to me; not very encouraging when it comes to a trustworthy relationship where you can depend on someone to do the right thing when situations get rough. As Gods/Earths we strive for perfection and don't settle for mediocracy, especially when it comes down to doing the right thing. Culturally speaking, that weak posture and attitude contradicts (destroys) what's Divine. Our stance is "we are just and true and there is no unrighteousness in us" because we are committed to "show forth our power that we are allwise and righteous... WITHOUT FALLING VICTIM TO the devils civilization" (37,38/1-40). So regardless how rough situations get, we're determined to seek the right way and trick-knowledge, devilishment, stealing, telling lies or mastering others is never an acceptable option (4/1-14). I've ceen and heard people make the argument that, "they had to do what they had to do" or "the ends justify the means" when in reality they're simply confirming that they don't really recognize righteousness as the ultimate standard to adhere to "regardless to whom or what" (11/1-14). In otherwords, they're still NOT CONVINCED that righteousness is infallible (unfailing) and that there's always a right way to act or respond in any given situation. That is a tragedy for them and will be tragic for anyone around them whenever these people feel like situations are getting too rough...

In closing, I ask all of us, regardless if we call ourselves Gods/Earths, Moors, Hebrews, Muslims, Kemetians, Nuuwabians or etc., are we truly seeking Social Justice or a Social Status? Are we like the double-headed eagle of the Scottish Rite; claiming we're about Social Justice (revealing the truth to all who seek it) yet simultaneously upholding the Status Quo (concealing the truth from the uninitiated)? Many of the special interest groups many of you are intrigued about joining don't even offer you the benefit of full disclosure and transparency about what you'd be committing your life/finances to upfront! For you to even be interested in that means that you either have done or can cee yourself doing the same thing; there's an affinity for the 10%. Committing yourself to something under these clandestine circumstances is like agreeing to marry somebody you don't really know and who's not allowed to tell you much about themselves  until you say "I do!" Regardless of how great they say they are, the benefits you'll get from the relationship and etc., the very foundation is untrustworthy and unequal. You have no way of judging whether that's true or not and you're completely vulnerable (open) to what they need to get from you. In otherwords, there is nothing restricting you from sharing everything about yourself with them yet they're restricted from sharing everything equally with you. It reminds me of those who 'petition' to join a Lodge or go 'on-line' for Fraternities/Sororities; there's a thorough investigation done on you yet you have limited resources to actually investigate it's members or the Group you want to join... Then if they do decide to let you in, you're required to uphold the same standard. If anything, it says alot about a person's self esteem and social ambitions to put themselves in that position to begin with. Nobody who's truly concerned about Social Injustice would put themselves in such an unjust position.

So for those of you who're truly about real Social Justice, be mindful of joining or affiliating yourselves with anything that serves the purpose of neutralizing your efforts. If you've already made decisions like this and now you cee those Societies, Organizations, Fraternities, Clubs, Businesses and Institutions undermine your ability to work towards Social Justice then you have a serious choice to make! And when I say undermine your ability to work towards Social Justice, it can be anything from paying dues to them that could otherwise go towards something else or even actively attending their Events that create conflicts in your schedule for participating in our Events. Some of you will dismiss this Article by simply saying you only joined or are affiliating yourselves with certain Societies, Organizations, Fraternities, Clubs, Businesses and Institutions to preserve the best part for yourselves and add-on to your foundation. What you really mean is you're trying to climb the social ladder, seek upward mobility or get a piece of the American Pie. My questions to you are Who's ladder? Up to where? Who's pie? Others will even go as far as to say that some Special Interest Groups (Societies, Organizations, Fraternities, Clubs, Businesses and Institutions) aren't keepers of the Status Quo. I've heard Prince Hall Freemasons claim that they're independent from England and American Grand Lodges so they're not keepers of the Status Quo yet when I ask them, "Who gave them permission (their Charter/Quo), Where is this Charter kept in a vault, Where is the Cornerstone of their Original Lodge said to be kept and does all of this reflect true self determination and autonomy for us as a people?" they don't have any answers. Well I'll leave all of you with this thought: If your involvement and participation in something is clearly keeping you apart from "our own social equality", then that ultimately reveals where your allegiance lies. And to believe otherwise is nothing but a Pike Dream. (8/1-14) For those of you who already know what's up, I appreciate the work you're doing to continually advocate true Social Justice. The Father (Allah) and other Men and Women who demonstrated this unwavered integrity couldn't be bought or sold! And it was because of this commitment to our common cause that we are here today.

Peace,

Transitions from Lost to Found

By Lord Life Justice

Last week my persons addressed a Queen who resides in Now Cee (North Carolina) who had questions about a segment in our Article On Proper Station Identification called "The Clash of Cultures". She quoted the following paragraph, "I was ‘Christianized’ (indoctrinated) long before being approach by a Wise Scientist who told me ‘the whole truth’. For a while, after agreeing with my Enlightener, I still had feelings that I was going to die and burn in hell for Blasphemy I was committing by saying I was God...", and asked th following questions, “Now, how does one overcome this Mindset? Better yet, how did you overcome this mindset?" Of course, we addressed the new born by text, but despite the elaboration, we felt there was more to say to give her the clearest picture which would be the understanding. After talking to myself in the form of Allah Saladin Quanaah, it was clear in the Universal Mind that we should express this as an Article because we are sure there are others who are suffering from this same dilemma, and devoting a posting to this issue would not only help one form of Self in the form of the Queen, but all others; thus satisfying this soul that we have done the best to add on to her and our cipher.

First of all Family, congratulate yourself for being in possession of a rare but significant quality that few possess: The staunch ability to commit your being to that which you know is true, and give all you have and all within your power to it. This devotion to that which you know is true, used correctly, will give you all you need to manifest your righteous will. I can say that-- because I have that said ability. I know you have it because only the ones in possession of it would think/feel the way described in my build. Meaning, one should be circumspect, to see if what they are doing is right and exact. Nothing is wrong with that. It is only wrong when it is misdirected. The feelings of thinking you are being blasphemous, is due to the fact that we were trained in the wrong way by some one we trusted. Our teachings tell us to never take anyone on face value; that all must show and prove. Even these Lessons should be checked within the context of their chronological and moral significance against what is known in the world concerning them. We must make sure they are right and exact before adding them on to our cipher, which is what we call the Universal Mind; in our "corner of the sky" [areas of the mind we are aware of from our experiences, understanding, etc]. As we inhale these ethers, we expand into the higher aspects of ourSelf, called Allah, based upon what we know. Be aware that Culture/ Freedom is how we add on to each other, in its various customs and expressions. To say that, "Culture is one's way of life," is a gross understatement when it comes to the contributions of Culture. Next to knowing, being wise, and gaining understanding, elaborations on Culture-- like Knowledge-- is an all expansive, inexhaustible subject. All that you have read thus far, have been in reality, just one article called Proper Station Identification; covering the recapturing of our Culture, in order to cultivate ourselves, based upon known facts and principles. The Clash of Cultures is what is afoot here. While we are striving to recapture our Culture, we come face-to-face with the facts that we were raised inside the Devil's civilization and its mixed signals is obviously interfering with us getting clear reception on our proper station in life. The brain is but our antennas, with the mind being the structural part of our consciousness to bring things into existence, but the proper way to view us is we are consciousness dwelling within a physical form.

Religion is one of the cultural means used in the past to tie us back to God. Religion literally means re- "back" and ligion- "to tie back" --like ligaments connect muscles--to the one that made all this possible, Allah (Self). We have a connection or path that solidifies the beginning to the end, the creation to its reason for living or being already in place. Nowadays, "religion" has been separated from "science" and that "separation"-- like the blasting of the moon from the earth-- causes some to act like LUNAtics and Religious Zealots/Fanatics; like when the moon is full, which brings receptivity like pregnancy, yoking, evoking, and fear. A receptive, susceptible or "Open Mind" must be protected by becoming certain. Knowledge is the foundation to that certainty. We must examine and confirm everything, before planting those thought-seeds in the garden of our Mind. Unfortunately, most Religions overemphasize how one must believe and have faith, in a way that does not allow for skepticism. Rituals are important, make no doubt about it! One of the rituals we all depend on is the inhalation and exhalation of the breath, known as breathing: We don't have to think about breathing because it’s automatic. Otherwise, I know the way I focus on things, my person would be blue in the face many times because of forgetting to breathe... LOL But before we put things on automatic, let's make sure they are right. Culture, through the area of customs and rituals, makes this possible. Like it is said, "Practice makes perfect." A lot of times this cultivation is like “a fine mist that the naked eye can hardly detect”. Suggestions, like water, increases with "other mists" and brings rain, hail, snow and earthquakes, because Culture is a systematic approach to cultivating Man, Woman and Child to the needs of the given Society. (8/1-40)

There are two Cultures manifested in this Society alphabetically: DIVINE OR DESTROY. What you are learning now is DIVINE, what you got before receiving this knowledge was DESTROY -in the form of TRICKNOWLEDGE, made to enslave our People. That kind of living works for what the Colored Man wants to do. And enslave is what these crafty Devils continue to do to the world population, making us other than ourselves. I had to come to grips with WHO gave me these suggestions, WHAT was the reason, WHEN it occurred, and WHY. These are all investigative techniques. This meant I had to put this Religion and Worship thing into its' proper perspective. In saying Culture, we are talking about the raising of a People through systematic means, engineered by the so-called "wisest" of their People (Sly Stone calls The Government or Western Culture "The System" in the Song "Everybody is a Star"). Culture also includes God and the Country's (Nation’s) relationship to the Creator (The relation-ship of the people under God's influence). In Culture, there are the People; their interaction (“social equality” 8/1-14); God and what God wills; and rituals designed to keep God & Man all tied together (Religion and the Scientific approach concerning God). Sometimes the rituals are secular: “laws, rules and regulations” (28/1-40). Sometimes the rituals are “religious” (5/1-14). Other times they are mathematical and scientific concerning God, technological and artistic (includes music, song, etc), as well as scholarly (literary works). All of these rituals should be designed to keep order in a civilized manner. However, concerning Religion, there is a difference between who wrote the Books (1/1-40) and the Organization around the interpretation of these Books. THIS, I came to know, as the folly of "organized religion".

This power to have faith [commitment and devotion to what you know] became manipulated and broken down into what you "believe" by a skillful manipulator. This manipulator was the Southern Baptist Minister or his Northern Black spin-offs. Belief in what you "believe" is always weaker than "the commitment to what you know to be true." Commitment in what you know is based on "confirmation and research", whereas "belief" is based on "what you are willing to follow" [the proper root definition of believe]. What you are "willing to follow" may or may not be true, but in Christian belief, the Minister tells you to "trust in the Lord," while you are really "trusting the Minister's words". For this God (mystery God) you never seen or heard except through what the Minister says about the Bible. Now I did not make a blanket statement and say what he told you (us) was wrong... only that you "trusted him on face value" instead of doing "research for confirmation" like you are now learning to do. Always remember that it is better to "know" than strictly "believe." That's like pretending that you possess wisdom, before you really know anything. When were you manipulated ["led in the wrong direction" or "fed the wrong foods" (14/1-40 and 10/1-36)]? If you were like my person, it was probably during our most uncritical thinking years; childhood. It was then that I was spooked out by the Minister’s theatrics. Psychologically, the Minister shocked us, placing himself into a Parent role with me, and like a scolding Parent, he cornering the Child mode in my consciousness into obedience, long before we learned mentally how to judge wisely. I didn't say everything you were told was lies, but of what you were told, you were told many half-truths and lies by omission (leaving out key parts. "Commitment to what you know, not what you believe or want to believe", is the aim here. That is the aim of any wise Scientists who teaches or builds with you. Shakespeare said, "The whole world's a stage, with all of us- mere players." So no matter how convincing Judges, Police Officers, Doctors, Ministers, Nurses or Cremators may be, it is still a role that they play, and they all put on their pants the same way you do.

In my childhood I was gripped by the 'fear dance' that Ministers do: hooting, hollering and theatric preaching. Whether Mason or not, these Minister’s “theatrics" date back to the plantation mentality, where the job of calming down the Black masses was given to special niggahs called "Spiritual Leaders"--a somewhat soul stirrer in his (and nowadays her as well) delivery. This dates back to the fact of the knowledge in the fourth degree in the one to thirty six: There have been many people who were enslaved on this Planet, but only the Black Man/Woman had everything taken from them "including their language." This act alone almost assures cultural genocide (annihilation) for those People whom this is done. Without a spoken language, artifacts, and written words, a Culture's very existence is questionable and definitely debatable. By doing this to us as a People, only the first generation who were enslaved would be able to remember their customs and culture as a whole. By the time he or she had babies to teach (slavery regulations), the slave owner would have sold their children to another plantation for profit. By doing so, this destroyed the integrity of family life of his property, not to mention the transmission of the family's original Culture to the Black babies (24/1-36) [Cee: Henry Highland Garnet: AN ADDRESS TO THE SLAVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA August 16, 1843]These babies, being in a new and strange environment, were gripped in fear and attempted to do whatever it took in order to survive. As it was customary not to sell/trade two or more fellow tribesmen or women to any one plantation or nearby facility, our Culture was systematically broken down and replaced with the slave master's as one of our only means of survival in this strange world (24/1-36). We even learned the White Man's language so that we could understand his orders and keep the whip off our backs. But in doing so, we could now communicate to other Blacks, not by Cultural similarities, but of the common hellish condition called Chattel Slavery. Within those thoughts concerning the trauma, pain, and indignities we suffered, we also entertained thoughts of freedom, justice, and equality; a.k.a. rebellion and uprising. [Cee: Black Rebellion; Eyewitness Accounts of Major Slave Revolts] Thus entered the special niggahs called “Spiritual Leaders” or Ministers. He was taught the White Man's religion, to replace the slave master or overseer preaching to his slaves on Sunday. His purpose was to be a counselor, mediator and go-between to quell rebellion and to be somewhat of a pacifier (maybe even a Snitch). Even to this day, when the White Man looks towards Black Leadership (like the Presidential Election), he seeks Religious figures like Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Martin Luther King (and I know while I'm building you probably saw Min. Louis Farrakhan in your third)... Preachers could convince you they were right, even when they were wrong, unsure, or when they really didn't know, but remember: It's just a role he or she plays.

While on the subject, we know that during chattel slavery, it was customary for a White Man to have his slaves dress him. Going to his Masonic Lodge meetings was no exception. Soon, these slaves were overhearing and seeing secrets of these Masons, so they were made sworn to secrecy, like with anything else they were exposed to, but their Black Lodges were closed from initiating others. Enter Prince Hall, Absalom Jones, and Richard Allen. However on a DVD called MASONRY REVEALED, these "hoodwinkers" tried to re-invent Prince Hall as a military personnel who got his TRICKNOWLEDGE in the union military by a White Military Officer. Now ask yourself, “Why would a White teach ‘a darkie’ that knowledge, especially during these times in American History? Out of the kindness of his heart...?!” So why are there Black and White Masonic Lodges? A regular member could not start another Lodge; only a Most Worshipful Master of the White Lodge can start another Lodge! If these Preachers are Masons, they are bound to the rules of the ninth degree in the one to fourteen, so they must reveal the truth, but the crafty Ministers camouflage the knowledge by emphasis on the wrong parts: [this is done “to conceal the true and living God and to make slaves out of the eighty-five percent by keeping him worshipping something he cannot see and he makes himself rich from their labor” (9/1-40)]. For instance, the Preachers say you are a child of God, right? Isn't the goal of upbringing for you to follow your Father and Mother's instruction? Emulate the way like your Parent's? Isn't it the goal of Parents to raise their children to emulate the awareness that made them who they are? Jesus and his Father are one and he is a child of God, why not you as well? Christian means to "imitate Christ" and Jesus is God, so why does the Minister not teach the People to be God-like? See, the words are there for the proper education, but Preacher Man puts a spin on it to keep his flock ready to be fleeced. He does this by keeping them worshipping something they cannot see, as opposed to building on a divine force that resides within the Black Man/Woman as our real identity and soul root. Preachers do all of this while showing us pictures of Jesus living way down in your heart... Black Ministers practice their "fire and brimstone act", which they use/used to scare us into that way [tricknowledge]... So we have nightmares and dreams of blasphemy. We have to be reasonable with ourselves: We were taught that as children and ignorant ones [24/1-36]. I am reasoning with the Adult in you to research it and talk rational to your inner Self. These investigative methods help confirm and add on what you know, not what you believe, think, feel, or trust someone saying.

Putting things into perspective, a lot of what is taught in “organized religion” is not in the wisdom Books in which their teachings are based. Just as what Jesus taught is not Christianity and its Protestant Religions have become (5/1-14). The teachings of the Church's, Temple's, Synagogue, Mosque's interpretation of theirs Books (Torah, Zohar, Bible, Qu'ran) becomes the main thrust of what they teach (28/1-36 and 5/1-14). And just like the episode with the (slave) Trader, following that type of advice can lead to dire consequences, causing you not know "who is causing all this to happen" (9/1-40). Stick to the Book and let the divine force within guide your eventual understanding. In my research inside the Bible, we saw Psalms 82. Within the 6th verse, we see: "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.” This meant to me our Universal family was right: The most High is the Highest aspect of the real Self; the apex that we aspire to. Clean up to be as; “Holy means something that has not been mixed diluted or tampered with in any form” (9/1-14). No matter what form life comes in, life came from Allah, so this means Allah is Omnipresent; which means "everywhere" (37/1-40). And how can this be, if God and you were separate? How can He be in your heart? Then I Cor. 3:16 revealed:"Know Ye not that Ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?" Knowing my body and me are not the same; the human form is the temple of my consciousness and soul, it was not hard to tell that Spirit of God should be analogous to my soul. And that my consciousness is my awareness of right, wrong and proper judgment. And behold no more feelings of blasphemy see, because that no longer made sense to me. But I did want to know why Preacher Man taught that? I saw in 12/1-40, "Because he desires to make slaves out of all he can, so he can rob them and live in luxury". When I learned the Asiatic Black Man wrote the Holy Qu'ran and Holy Bible, and these are Books of wisdom that dominate the thinking of the known world, I wanted to know how the White Man came to use it. Well, my person already knew the Bible was translated from the Hebrew writings and The Commandments were given by God to Musa. This work is called The Torah by some, Sepher of Moses by others, and its' secret teachings called Zohar. Passed onto Priests, other Hebrew writing or Books were added to become what is known as The Bible. More importantly, the wisdom was passed by Priests, all the way to Priest-King Samuel (two books), young David (who becomes King: Kings I, II), and his son, King Solomon. Later, we learned from our Lessons (9,10/1-14) that the secret training of Colored Men to learn the ways of the Qu'ran. I learned later that David also set these wheels in motion before Muhammad. It involved the King of Tyre, King David, and tutorship set up for Prince Solomon with one, Hiram Abiff. These were secret teachings. This is about Caucasian Freemasons (and Shriners) rise to power. Although the details to this would be considered important to some, suffice it to say, what God gave Moses or Musa (the adopted son-prince of the Shekhem of the Pharoah of Khamit [Egypt]) is the wisdom Books used to put the West where it is today. They are the Covenant and Sepher concealed as the Bible and the Qu'ranic civil code of Muhammad. What you, as the blasphemy-believer, need to know is even though they were given a chance (2,9/1-14), they would not keep and obey what Musa, Hiram Abiff, and Muhammad proposed (10/1-14). Later through the Lessons, I learned that Masons use substitutes for the truth, which is called "tricknowledge" (4/1-14) or hoodwinking. We battle for a free Man's Mind and Truth. They (Masons) teach to enslave by creating a need and role they will fulfill; which they make themselves rich from your labor. The wisdom used in the White Anglo Saxon Protestant's world, and the rest of the Western world is Eastern. Based on Books of Eastern consideration. They would not keep and obey the East's concepts. From Constantine to Roman, English, and Irish Catholicism, to various forms of Protestantism, they re-invent ways of being other than. Christendom used to be Europe's form of Government... is it now? Ever heard of Scottish Rite Mason? We teach of the God within, the West teaches about a remote mystery God who you can displease. We teach proper education and right and exact actions makes us more aware and closer to our true Self. The thought of blasphemy is a feedback loop, to block your escape from their hoodwink. The opposite to free and accepted, is enslaved and unaccepted into "their social equality" (8/1-14). It's like Matrix, Inception, and 'waking up is so very hard to do.' Think about it... if we were separate from God, we would be formed from something other than God and it would be a Polytheistic belief. An Omnipresent reality of God would be untrue. This is not what the world subscribes to. Neither is a concept of the true and living God right, when People are living a life of lawlessness.


Peace,
