The Beast Within (click here to order!!)

-FASTING-

I’ve presently embarked on a Fast. Right now I am getting through my 4th day of just drinking Spring Water. I haven’t had any strong food cravings as of yet but two days ago I was irritated quite a bit later on in the afternoon. All I can say is the Universal Mind has an incredible sense of humor. I felt like a Medium who was able to detect “asshole” orb’s! People was really getting’ on my damn nerves! Right now I’m strait, toxin’s just flooding my system so I’m alittle lethargic, other than that I’m Peace and starting to get the clarity that Fasting brings.

My Benefactor (Enlightener) said that Fasting is like lockin’ a Ravenous Ass Beast in the muthafuckin’ basement! The first few day’s it’s savagely clawing at the door, snarling and barking for food but as time passes your able to tame it! For the past year I’ve been primarily eating one meal a day, so I’m sure this has helped me tame (Civilize) “The Beast”. So it ain’t like I eat a big ass breakfast, a small sub & chicken wings for lunch and then buat down some steak & potatoes for dinner before punishing my body with Fasting! I’m used to eating a small meal at the Knowledge (1) Hour so it’s not really extreme. The main reason for this Fast is not necessarily physical even though I’ll get the physiological benefits. This was more on some Metaphysical, Renew my Koran, Make changes type of current.

Now here’s the “meat” of this article (pun intended!). Change is always difficult when the timing isn’t proper. Each thought we think, words we speak and move we make takes energy! All of us have our own energy or like my Benefactor calls it “Metaphysical Economy”. Based upon our inventory of energy, this will determine what we will and won’t do. Time Management is essentially Energy Management. Sometimes we find ourselves “spreading ourselves too thin” and this only means that we misappropriated our energy! Right now wherever you may be, if faced with the immediate challenge of jogging 5 miles non stop, realize that it’s not a question of “if” you can do it! This generally is a question of “if you have the available energy”! I mean even if you have one leg it still can’t be reasoned as “I can’t” because Terry Fox hobbled 3,339 miles across Canada and into our little hearts in 1980! There are some exceptions but for the most part, most people actually can but instead of perceiving it as a question of available energy they simply say “I can’t”! Most of us learned this jewel in Kindergarten that saying “I can’t” puts a limitation of your latent, unperceived ability. To reminisce for as moment, When I was in first grade I wrote a love letter to this Wiz and took it to her by the pencil sharpener and she stood there, read it and ripped that shit up right in front of my face (and in front of other kids!). That had me fucked up for a while but she became my girlfriend in 6 grade (yeah, I know “No all the prophets have tried and have agreed.. .”!), and later in life I went on to successfully have two beautiful daughters by a dime piece (yeah, I know too, “they believe in the 10% on face value”!). The point is, because I was instinctively aware of my infinite potential, I didn’t let the idea of “I can’t” stop me!

Sometimes instinct (or will) is not enough. Sometimes we simply need the energy to make it happen. To maximize our ability to transcend the mental challenge of “I can’t” whether it exists inside of our own mind or outside of us, we need to have the available energy, and Fasting is a good way to re-up! If you want to cut that nigga off, Fast on his muthafukin’ ass! If you want to save some cream ($) to invest in something, Fast from spending your cream on shit you don’t really need! You’ll have an abundance of energy to make something happen! In Shamanism (my Major Science), it’s called severing the chains of personal attachment and reorganizing your field of energy. One way you do this is by performing “not-doings”, basically using a systematic method of not investing your time & energy into the everyday routines that consume most of your energy. In laymen’s terms, people say they want change but continue to think, talk and walk the same way! In order to do this you must first take an inventory of your energy. Find out what you spend most of your energy doing and then you can devise a proper method to break yourself. For example, if you can honestly see that you spend a lot of time running off at the mouth (you say your “building”) but wonder why you aren’t having the effective change upon your life or those around you focus more of your energy and time in non-verbally communicated what you want to see happen! "Just do it" and make sure that the energy you usually used to run ya' mouth with is redirected into doing something. In our way of life we symbolically say that Light (186,000 miles per sec.) travels faster than Sound (1,120 ft. per sec.)! You’ll be amazed at how many “hours” you free up just from shuttin’ the hell up sometimes! See, Shaman’s are Metaphysical Alchemist’s who consistently assess their inventory of energy in order to achieve different levels of consciousness and livelihood. Fasting is often a very big part of this because your storing the energy that was previously used for the digestive process and rerouting it into other areas. Oh yeah, I’m just building primarily about a basic Fast when you abstain from food. Fasts like Liver Cleanse Fasts, Sex Fasts and anything other than that is a whole different “Beast”!

To conclude, I want to encourage ya’ll to use Fasting as a method to bring forth Transfiguration! Fasting gives you the energy to do it so it’s a perfect opportunity to manifest change in ya' life. And oh’ yeah, make sure you keep a tight lock on the door for that muthafuckin’ Beast in ya’ Basement!

"The Science of EVERYTHING in Life"

Peace! I hope you enjoyed my last article I posted about "Venus is 67,000,000 miles from the Sun". Many Gods & Earths overlook some of the "unassuming" Lessons that we have and short change themselves from acquiring some very valuable learning tools that apply to life. Mathematics is more than doing simple addition tricks with alpha-numeric concepts, it’s a Mathematical Theology from a God-Centered perspective that permeates all aspects of our way of life. Most of the time this is non-verbally communicated. Now let me give you some insight into some thought's I've been dealing with lately:

Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin- First I would like to meditate for a moment on my main man Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin! A true Conservationist and a person who knew his calling in life! You can definately tell that he loved his Profession and he gave people the opportunity to learn and appreciate many value lessons about the Animal Kingdom. I was sad to hear that he returned to the essence and I encourage you to take the time to check out some of his shows that have been airing on Animal Planet.

The 5% Album by Lord Jamar- I’ve been listening to it and I think it serves a good purpose for the youth. If they can quote Chris Brown, Young Joc, and other Artists then they can learn to quote Lord Jamar too. At least in the long run it will be useful when they grow to understand what they’ve been programmed to think! On the flip side, I’ve been thinking about the "Commercialization" of our Culture. Also the fact that he had someone like Sadat X. on a song called "Study your Lessons" which I’m skeptical about! Well, if Sadat doesn’t know his Lessons I feel bad for him if he comes in tune with the Gods because they will "bomb him" (correct him) about it along with the fact that he has an "X" at the end of his name! This is because The Nation of Gods and Earths is very critical and guarded about our way of life. The reason something like an album or even book hasn’t been done is not because nobody could do it. The reason is because we place high regard for doing impeccable research and being right & exact! The slightest misinformation puts you in "the boy that cried wolf" category until shown & proven otherwise! The Number 1 being symbolic to Knowledge speaks for itself!

HipHop Festival 2006- On the 19th of August I participated in our Annual HipHop Festival as a Volunteer and also by doing a Workshop entitled "Word iz Bond". It was Peace and I had the opportunity to build with about 30 youth ages 7-16 about the value of words and how people make themselves rich from our ignorance. One thing that really got them going is when I explained that many Professions are based upon your ignorance such as Auto Mechanic’s, Doctor’s, Lawyer’s and also Ministers! I built about how if you knew what they knew then you wouldn’t have to go to them or pay them to do what you could do yourself. I emphasized that the more knowledge you gain the more self sufficient you become and the less people can take advantage of you because your not ignorant. Now the highlight of the Festival was "Roxanne Shante" who spoke for about an hour. She was droppin’ jewels and I’m sure everybody got alot out of what she built upon which was various subjects that related to our concept of Love, Hell or Right. Love, Hell or Right basically means: The things that you commit to with your heart go through circumstances of temperance & purification to determine if it’s just and true.

The Color of the Cross- Check out this link to: "The Color of the Cross". It’s a movie coming out in the Autumn about Jesus and it’s played by a Black Man! Not no swarthy olive complexioned Semitic looking Man but a strait up thick lipped, dark-skinned wooly haired "Black" Man. Mary and other characters are Black too and it’s definitely gonna create some dialogue and have a dynamic impact upon America. I already know how many Caucasians are going to react I’m just waiting for these apologetic, uncle tom ass church negroes to come out talking that "It doesn’t matter" bullshit because they’re afraid to upset Massah’! One of my people even predicted a boycott of the movie spearheaded by these ignorant muthafucka’s and exacerbated by their Caucasian "Financer’s"! All I can say is it’s gonna be beautiful to see and at the same time sickening when we start to see our own people shooting it down!! For those who know the real, there will be only so many ignorant conversations that you’ll be able to turn a deaf ear to before you need to set the record strait, so be prepared to bomb a muthafucka’ out the frame (with a smile & civilized sensibility of course!).

Unknown- The Wisdom of any/all Culture(s) is indicative of it’s ability to minimize "Unknown’s" that present themselves along the course of a person’s life and solve problems. In symbolic language 2=Wisdom, 4=Culture and the 24th Letter in our Supreme Alphabet is "X" (the "Unknown"). As I get older I find myself consolidating, economizing and preserving my time, energy and resources better! Through discernment (Wisdom) and implementing this way of life (Culture) I have been able to effectively sidestep "it’s always something" types of situations (the "Unknown")! If the Culture you live (yes your religion is an expression of it!) is like faulty Acme Products Wile E. Coyote uses then you need to think about investing in something that works. It’s nothing worst then seeing people foolishly using methodologies that died 2,000 years ago simply because it’s a so-called "Tradition". Fool, at one point in our chronology that shit was actually "Innovative" and not Traditional! That’s very unwise and in the process they evoke an entire array of unknown’s that can only be solved using modern methodologies because these unknown’s exist in a contemporary context! This is the sole reason that People get old because they’re weathered by the life that constantly changes (evolves) around them!

The Nation of Gods and Earths- I haven’t been amongst a "General" body of Gods and Earths for quite some time and I definitely enjoy the Peace of mind from being around some of the bullshit "Religiosity" I see people dealing with. Many of the God’s from my Family Tree are very introspective about living this Culture and I’ve grown to see why. Part of the reason is the fact that many Gods & Earths mistake talking for teaching. As I’ve mentioned earlier, our Culture is primarily "non-verbally communicated". Just because a person quotes Lessons backwards & forwards, may have walked with this Older God/Earth, can recite the history of The Father, or has had 120 Lessons for 20 years doesn’t validate you in my eyes! That's the way I was taught, my Enlightener was taught, his Enlightener was taught and so forth. If your life doesn’t express what "you claim you know" then you on some strait-up bullshit and I don’t have time to get together with a bunch of fake muthafucka’s who want to boost they Ego! Shit I could go to church for that! When I see "MY" Culture that is supposed to be Free lived out Fanatically Religious and Grossly Nationalistic it turns me (and other’s) off! I don’t even want to be around no shit like that! When all the talk has ceased and we are finished espousing our "Self Styled Wisdom" what’s left Gods and Earths? An image of either Righteousness or Devilishment!

PEACE

-"Venus" is 67,000,000 miles from the Sun-

Peace Fam! Today I was in the mood to deal with some high science so I’m about to take it there. For those of you who are not in the Nation of Gods and Earths, as a part of our 120 Lessons that we learn to know and recite by heart, nine (9) of these Lessons are known as Solar Facts. The Solar Facts tell us the distance of each Planet from the Sun, for example Venus is 67,000,000 miles from the Sun. Yeah I know, it may not sound too interesting on face value, and probably went over many of your heads, but contained within this unassuming statement is invaluable information that is practically useful in many spheres of our life! This is “A Lesson” so there has to be something to learn from this information aside from the quantitative fact that so and so Planet is so many miles “from” the Sun. Just the fact that it states that Venus is “from” the Sun is a jewel! Now check this out..

The Universal Law of Correspondence states that “as above so below”. The observance of this Law has been prevalent throughout indigenous tribes observance of the forces of nature (weather) to govern their growing, harvesting, hunting and other cultural activities. This Law was also observed by the Ancient Kemetians (so-called Egyptians) in the architectural layout of our Nile Valley Civilizations. You can even observe how the insects and even plants naturally observe The Law of Correspondence!

Astrology is based upon The Law of Correspondence. Since Planets are defined as Celestial Bodies that inhabit the Heavenly Realm, Humans are defined as Terrestrial Bodies that inhabit the Earthly Realm. In the same way that our Planets each have a distinct atmosphere, Humans have distinct emotional atmospheres, and as Planets grow, change and evolve seasonal, Humans also grow, change and evolve psycho-physiologically. As we observe the Planets orbiting in the their path in a Universal Order, we can also observe our family and acquaintances orbiting in their path relative to our Social Order.

The Concept of assigning “Sun Signs” or “Birth Signs” to a person is based upon the idea that at the time of birth, the Planetary and Stellar Alignments were arranged in a such a way that a specific Planet and Constellation had a specific influence upon the Planet Earth during this time. I myself am said to be a Capricorn because the Planet Saturn and the Constellation of Capricorn had a major influence on the Earth when I was born. A good illustration of this is to envision yourself standing in the center of a clock with the Sun being the big hand and the Moon being the small hand. The 12 numbers are the 12 Zodiac Signs and as the big hand (Sun) passes from one number (Sign) to the next, it also changes Planetary influence. The little hand (Moon) moves through the Signs and Planets more rapidly and this creates subtle nuances between a person that is born at 1:33pm compared to a person who is born at 1:38pm. That’s just a basic idea of what Astrology is. It’s a very interesting Science and I encourage all of you to study it.

Mythology, Paganism, Religion, the Neters of Ancient Kemet, the Pantheon of the Gods of Greece and other Civilizations that conceptualize the forces of nature in the form of beings represent the psycho-dramatic illustration of Astrology. Essentially, these tales, stories, parables and etc.. . are used as symbolic methods to enlighten man to The Law of Correspondence. Most Christians blindly overlook what “On Earth as it is in Heaven” truly means. When knowing this it’s easy to decode what the 12 Tribes of Israel represented, the 12 Disciples, Judah being a Lion (Leo) and many other symbols.

Now when you look at the Ancient Kemetians, you begin to see the Planets and the Constellations become personified in human form and engaged in the governance of human activities! For example, the Planet Mercury translates into the Deity Tehuti, translates into the Zoomorphic form of an Ibis Bird, translates into form Imhotep and the way through the ages (and other Civilizations) until you get to a Wally West character affectionately known as “The Flash”. I know that most people are unaware that this Astrological Genius became most notable during our Nile Valley Era of Civilization so I’ll deal with the Roman names and concepts that you may be more familiar with. Keep in mind that these concepts are somewhat watered down versions of what the Greeks grafted from the Ancient Kemetians (Egyptians).

After laying that foundation, now lets look at the 2nd Lesson in our Solar Facts which states Venus is 67,000,000 miles from the Sun and see how it can be practically applied to our lives. First lets analyze Venus and she what “she’s” all about. I say “she” because all Planets are feminine both in nature and function. They all orbit the Sun according to the Receptive magnetism of the Sunlight, they all have seasonal/weather changes which is indicative to the emotional atmosphere of the female gender (Mother Nature, Mother Earth), and they also experience cataclysmic cycles which is indicative of a woman’s menstrual cycle. So now let’s analyze Venus;

1. The Planet Venus is named after the Roman Deity Venus who symbolizes “Love, Beauty, Sex and Sensuality”.

2. The symbol for Venus is a stylized representation of her hand mirror: a circle with a small cross underneath (♀).

3. The true adjective for Venus coming from Latin, “Venereal”, is avoided because of its modern association with disease.

4. Venus is sometimes called Earth's "Sister Planet", because they are similar in size and bulk composition.

5. Venus can usually only be seen a few hours before sunrise or a few hours after sunset. However, when at its brightest, Venus may be seen during the daytime, making it one of only two heavenly bodies that can be seen both day and night (the other being the Moon).

6. It is sometimes referred to as the "Morning Star" or the "Evening Star".

7. Venus has an atmosphere consisting mainly of carbon dioxide.

8. The enormously CO2-rich atmosphere raises Venus’s surface temperature to over 400°C.

9. Venus was “believed” to contain a lush, Earth-like jungle environment with oceans. This was due to the Planet's size and orbital radius, which suggested a fairly Earthlike situation as well as to the thick layer of clouds which prevented the surface from being seen.

10. Venus has slow “Retrograde Rotation”, meaning it rotates from east to west, instead of west to east as most of the other major Planets do.

11. Venus's intrinsic magnetic field has been found very weak compared to other Planets in the Solar System.

So for all practical purposes Venus is is something else! As a matter of fact I alway visualize Little Kim as an Archetype for Venus! As you can see, she is heavely marketed for her “Love Songs, Beauty, Sexuality and Sensuality”. The symbolism of her hand mirror represents self adornment, insecurity and overcompensation. The Circle (o) is a Cipher and the cross (+) is a “t” for Truth (in our Supreme Alphabet). Whenever you engage this type of woman’s Cipher be aware that she is oversensitive to the truth. The “mirror” she carries is an indication of how she systematically uses self adornment, insecurity and overcompensation as “defensive mechanisms” to survive in a male dominant society. More than not, these “defensive mechanisms” take on the form of the true adjective for Venus coming from Latin, which “Venereal”. Venereal in the diseased sense of literal oversexual activity and in the symbolic sense of pathology of her psycho-social interactions. The fact that Venus is usually only seen “a few hours before sunrise” or “a few hours after sunset” gives you insight into her lifestyle (orbit). A woman like this is a booty call! Shit, she’s hot (Venus’s surface temperature to rises to over 400°C.) so what do you expect! Add the fact that she is referred to as the “Morning or Evening Star" and you know she’s nice with hers! Celebrity status with the opposite sex (and oftentimes the same sex) because its’ more than simply sex, she’s dealing with sensuality which is the higher art of pleasure! Also add the fact that her atmosphere (tactics) consists mainly of carbon dioxide and you see how she’s able to lure men (and even women) to sleep. And we all know that carbon dioxide poisoning is hard to ditect because it’s both ordorless and tasteless. A person effected by CO2 poisoning either suffers from narcholeptic symptoms or simply falls asleep and never wakes up! Venus is something else!

Now lets look at some of the tactics Venus uses. Venus is said to be called Earth's "Sister Planet", because they are similar in size and bulk composition. Since Earth produces and maintains life, she can be considered any woman of importance to you such as your woman, a female relative or even a friend. If the Earth is your woman and Venus is considered her “Sister Planet” then Venus is closer than you think! She’s either the bitch that be hanging tight with ya’ woman, ya woman’s sister who always’s flirting with you or just some female that’s trying to get to know your woman so she can eventually get closer to you (Venus is 26 Million miles closer to the Sun than the Earth!)! Since Venus has an atmosphere (attitude, character, disposition) that consists of mostly CO2 , she can’t produce or maintain life, so I call her “bitch” for a good reason! She got a fucked up attitude cause she wants what you have and she goes through extreme measures to make you believe she has a lush, jungle-like habitable environment with oceans just as vast as the Earth (see Single White Female, and Fatal Attraction)! When she’s really on some bad shit she tries to be seen at high noon; “when at its brightest, Venus may be seen during the daytime, making it one of only two heavenly bodies that can be seen both day and night (the other being the Moon). This is critical to understand because she only appears this way because “the thick layer of clouds which prevents the surface from being seen”. But beneath all that bullshit (self adornment, insecurity and overcompensation) the fact is, the bitch is really weak, remember “Venus's intrinsic magnetic field has been found very weak compared to other Planets in the Solar System”. This means that when it comes down to it she can’t even keep a relationship if she tried!

In analyzing Venus one of the most important factors about her is that she “has slow “Retrograde Rotation”, meaning she “rotates from east to west, instead of west to east as most of the other major Planets do. It’s common sense that all travelers or seekers of knowledge travel East (from the West) in search of light/knowledge. To travel in the opposite direction is symbolically saying that you are going backwards! From a historical perspective this symbolizes that Venus women are highly assilimated (psychologically) into the Westernized Idealogies of Individualism and Capitalism. As Little Kim serves as my Archetype for Venus, you can see how the ideas of Individualism and Capitalism play an influential role in forging her idenity as the self proclaimed “Black Marilyn Monroe”.

To summarize the ideas that I put forth, again Venus is 67,000,000 miles from the Sun. In our Supreme Mathematics “6” represents Equality, Femininity and also Sexuality. If you look at the number six it appears to be pregnant. “7” on the other hand represents God, Perfection and Completion. When 6+7 is combined it equals “13” which symbolizes the letter “M” or MASTER in our Supreme Alphabet. This can simply be interpretated to mean that Venus functions in a way to use her nature (Femininity and also Sexuality) to deify herself in order to become a God beside God. With an ultimate intent of bringing forth (6=pregnancy) and MASTERING life like the Earth. Ironically, the “6” letter in our Supreme Alphabet is “F” which represents Father, further reinforces her “Freudian” Psychology (penis envy) in relationship to the Father (Fat-her/pregnancy/bearing life) and indifference towards of the fertility Mother Earth.

Now what am I saying by all this? Am I telling you that women born under the Zodiac Signs of Libra and Scorpio that’s ruled by Venus are destined to be on some freak shit? Am I saying that there aren’t any positive qualities in Venus? No, I’m just giving you a brief illustration of what can be learned from “the study” of our Lessons, especially from something as unassuming as our Solar Facts. When I speak to my youth I use this “study” in my slanguage to show them the science of how everything functionally relates to their lives! When I see a young wiz (young girl) that my man is peepin’ out, if she is a budding “Venus” I let it be known and I explain her experimental tactics to him so he can begin to properly order his universe, and consequently put her in her proper place! I don’t want him to make the same mistake as me when I allowed her CO2 to lure my ass to sleep! I also let the young wiz’s know how to descern who their true “sister’s” are, because some of these bitches that say they ya’ “sister” get on some real grimy shit when they envious of you! By being able to teach the youth to see the relativity of things, we empower them with the ability to “name” it’s functional definition in their life and simultaneously gain dominion over what will be! And oh yeah, the fact that Venus is 67,000,000 miles “from” the Sun let’s us know that whatever her dilemma may be, all the above is caused by the Sun (light & influence) on Man experimenting (playing) with high explosives (her emotions!), which is usually how Venus was “made or grown from the beginning” (in the first place!).

"Clarence 13X was Suspended twice for beating his Wife!!"

-Min. Akbar Muhammad, International Rep. of the NOI (7/16/2006)-

Peace Fam! How you? Yo’ on Sunday July 16th I was invited to come out to Mosque 23 in Bethlehem (Buffalo, NY) because Minister Louis Farrakhan’s International Representative, Akbar Muhammad was going to be giving a lecture particularly about a free land acquisition taking place in Ghana that is offered to Original People throughout the Diaspora. It’s a project being spearheaded by a Philadelphia Based Company called “The 2020 Group”.

Now I did alittle research prior to this and I was anticipating getting the specifics of what this was about from his perspective knowing that he had more of an in-depth view of Ghana since he lived there for some years. Anyway, very little was mentioned about the actual Project and Akbar Muhammad focused primarily on a 6 Day Youth Retreat Camp he was Advertising as a Tour Guide. The Camp was basically a Project he put together where he takes groups of youth to either Ghana or Egypt. He spoke very little about the land acquisition project and people who were interested had to actually ask for the name and contact information of the Company who’s promoting it. Besides promoting his Youth Retreat Camp, Akbar Muhammad also promoted different magazines and books he encouraged people to buy, and tapes of some of his lectures. Now here is the most interesting part of his lecture.

Akbar Muhammad said he came into the Nation during the first resurrection in the early 1960’s and Registered as a Muslim in the Historical Mosque #7 in Harlem, New York. This puts him (named “Larry” at this time) smack dab in the middle of one of the most controversial times of our History here in North America. This was a time when Elijah Muhammad and Malcom X. was going through their disagreement, Louis Farrakhan (then “Louis X”) was starting to come up, Muhammad Ali was blowing up, and of course The Father (then Clarence 13X) was coming into his own. There were others during these turbulent times, particularly a brother named Abu Shahid (then “John X.”) who is still alive and well living in Power Born (Pittsburg, PA). The most interesting part of Akbar Muhammad’s lecture was when he went into talking about a DVD he was selling entitled “The History of Mosque #7” (Video Link), which goes into the History of the 5 Percenter’s and Clarence 13X (The Father)!

Because Akbar Muhammad was in Mosque #7 at this time when everything was going down in the 1960’s as far as Malcom X. leaving, The Father starting the Nation of Gods and Earths (then “The 5 Pecenters”) and other historical situations, he had a lot to say, particularly about “The Father” and how the 5 Percenter’s got started.

One of the most controversial issues and questions that people often ask about the Nation of Gods and Earths is “Why did Clarence 13X or The Father leave the Mosque?”. During Akbar Muhammad’s lecture he stated (without reservation) that “Clarence 13X was suspended from the Mosque for 30 days because he beat his wife Doris. When Clarence returned from his suspension he beat Doris again and this time he got suspended for 90 days. During this 90 day suspension he never came back”. Akbar Muhammad also stated that, “After a while Clarence began to get confused about the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and started teaching lessons to kids in the streets. This gave birth to groups of youth who had a distorted view of the teachings and eventually they began to refer to themselves as 5 Percenters”. Akbar Muhammad went on to state that he lectures on the whole history of where the 5 Percenter’s came from on his tape “The History of Mosque #7” and that, "I would debate with any 5 Percenter who thinks they know this history any better than me because I was there"! Akbar Muhammad eventually ended his statements by saying, “I knew Clarence very well, he was a confused man”!

Now that’s the first time I even heard some shit like this. Immediately after the lecture I went outside and called my brother Abu Shahid who was actually in the Mosque at the same time and I asked him about this. Abu Shahid is almost 80 years old and is a brother who’s down to earth, practical and tells it like it is. For some years now he’s been doing a 5 different public access Programs and he’s the CEO of The Universal Street Academy and is actively involved in the Community out in Power Born (Pittsburg). He’s definitely well known and when I meet people from Pittsburg and ask them about him they definitely know him!

Well when I asked Abu Shahid did he know Akbar Muhammad he sarcastically said “Yeah I know Larry, what the @%*! was he saying about The Father this time? Did he tell the story about how he walked through a cipher of 5 Percenter’s while wearing his uniform and they split like the red sea?”. I said no and when I told him what Akbar Muhammad said about The Father being Suspended he simply said, “The Father left because he wanted to leave, we both wasn’t making no money in there plus when Malcom and Elijah fell out it was many of us that didn’t want to take sides because we loved both of them brothers.” Abu Shahid also went on to say, “The Father ain’t talk bad against the Nation, why nigga’s always want to try and throw dirt on his name like that?”. We talked for awhile and he built with me alittle about his story, about how he came up with the conceptualization of Supreme Mathematics while studying the 13th Problem in the Problem Book, how he caught a gun charge after he left the Mosque and some other Actual Facts about his life. Is interesting how we have an Elder like this in our midst and people take him for granted like that. He jokingly talked about how when he goes back to the essence, people going to make him into a Christ Figure just like the rest of them and be walking around saying “Abu Shahid said this, Abu Shahid said that!”. He has an incredible sense of humor, a young daughter (Princess Jhonazyia) who hasn’t even reached her early teens yet (Yeah he’s almost 80!), and be rocking sweat suits and gear like the youth! He’s definitely a jewel amongst us!

Now some people will argue that, “If we don’t have the actual facts about why The Father left we can’t make an accurate assessment of what we have?”, then I encourage you to get this information and even if you can find some type of Nation of Islam documentation that would verify this Suspension then go ahead. Since this is about being just and true (Righteous) then that is information we should have. As a matter of fact, if you hear that Akbar Muhammad will be coming to your local Mosque or area to lecture go out and see him. He usually has a question and answer period at the end of his lecture and you’ll have a chance to ask him some questions. I’ve personally come to the conclusion that regardless of what the circumstances were regarding him leaving I’m glad he did! If not, my Family Tree wouldn’t exist nor would I. As I’ve stated time and time again, our perfection exists in our humanness! That humanness is precisely what gave The Father the ability to personally connect with the frailties he saw in our youth in the streets. Regardless of what he did, I’m sure he did some things that he could have done better just like all of us. Simply put, he was a man who simply recognized his Godliness and did what he could to express it, and encourage others to recognize the same thing in themselves. Unlike the Mysteries surrounding the lives of Master Fard Muhammad, Elijah Muhammad and soon to be Louis Farrakhan, The Father should remain as a reminder of our human quest to express our Divinity.

Now if is an Actual Fact that The Father was beating on Doris like a Jimbe Drum, hey, that will definitely add on to our history (to say the least!)! In Elementary I mushed this girl in the face who then stabbed me in the chest (it just broke the skin) with a dull #3 Pencil (not #2!) and in Junior High I Karate kicked this girl who kept harassing me but I haven’t laid the smack down on any woman as an adult! If I feel like I’m about to get Rick Flair on a female, then I’m gonna leave that muthafucka’ alone!

I know (personally) that many Gods and Earths have idolized “The Father” to the point of worship. We need to realize that his struggles either true or rumored (in a society that seeks to oppose and suppress it) is a Lesson within itself! A Lesson that teaches about “function” and “impression” more than anything else! So instead of going back and forth about the validity of “The Father beating on Doris like Mr. beat Ceily on The Color Purple”, think about how this idea is designed to “function” and the “impression” it’s going to make upon non-critical thinkers! Akbar Muhammad is Louis Farrakhan’s “International Representative” and he’s promoting this agenda everywhere he goes. The 5 Percenter’s or Nation of Gods and Earths wasn’t even the topic of his lecture, he simply went into talking about it to promote his DVD’s. Whether true or false, he has a platform to promote this idea, so think about what this idea is determined to do! Think about it!

"Bizzaro" the Grafted Super Man

PTSS (Post-Traumatic Superhero Syndrome)

If you’ve ever done the Knowledge on any Spiderman episodes you’ll definitely be able to see a striking similarity in our personalities! Spiderman is excellent at what he does but never gets caught up in the so-called Superhero thing. As a matter of fact he’s quite cynical about the whole idea. He has an incredible sense of humor, and treats the most villainous people and situations with a confident sense of sarcastic wit. And when Spiderman gets knocked on his ass, he’s not afraid to say it because he recognizes that he’s a man first! In studying Spiderman’s battles, you’ll see that this “humaneness” is precisely what gives him an advantage over other Superhero’s. “Post-Traumatic Superhero Syndrome” is my theory that grandiose attitudes of Invincibility, Narcissism, Overcompensation, Cognitive Dissonance and Prideful Arrogance are psychological disorders that can be negatively attributed to a person’s association with Knowledge of Self. In layman’s terms, instead of this Culture helping people, it has unfortunately been construed in way which hinders them. When people be saying “The 5 Percenter’s are a Gang” where do you think they get that shit from?! There are some “nigga’s” who give the Nation of Gods and Earths a bad ass name. It’s a fucked up generalization, b.u.t. hey, all we can do is show and prove the opposite! In today’s article I’ll go into the diagnosis and treatment of some of the disorders associated with this Syndrome.

Now I know the last couple of articles I’ve written were definitely cynical of some of the things we find ourselves dealing with as a Nation of People. First of all I’m not doing it for the shock value or to be controversial. This is how I see it. Ultimately I think that many of us haven’t learned to really appreciate the beauty of this way of life as much as we should! I’m not overlooking the transitional times when we need to be serious, the times when we cry and the times that we get angry. I think that many of us beat ourselves up to much, are too anal retentive and carry this way of life with too much of tension. As brothers we need to lighten up (yes, pun intended!) and then we will eventually begin to see our woman and children reflecting the joy they see in us. I mean I literally changed my name to “Saladin Quanaah’ Allah” back in 99 so yes, no matter how laid back and friendly my angle may appear to be, I am definitely serious about this God-Centered Cultural Worldview! Not many people are bold enough to take a step like this, especially in their own backyard amongst people who “swear they know you”! It hasn’t been a day at the park either, and you can’t fathom the psycho-socioeconomic warfare that occurs on a daily basis because I “literally” come in the name of Allah! This is something I’ll write about and share with you in the future and just for the record, I’ve paid and continue to pay dues to say the shit I say!

Now, going back to our original conversation, If you can’t laugh at yourself then you are like a waterless tree! The slightest breeze can break you, shattering your fragile Ego like a mirror dropped off a building (pun intended). I’ve learned through experience that my Perfection is not that nothing can touch me. My Perfection is in my ability to Master the things that have touched me! And by being able to “talk this language” to my own people, I give them access to many “Golden Rules” that I’ve learned along the way.

In all my years I’ve yet to meet a brother who has experimented with high explosives without blowing his lab coat up a few times! Whether that high explosive be a relationship, finances, or whatever it was, we all have looked like chimney sweepers at one time or another. Some more than other’s b.u.t. even then that’s nothing to be ashamed about! That is the reason that we build. Shit, your holding valuable information for the next brother to help him avoid blowing his laboratory up too! Not only that, b.u.t. you are also helping him avoid putting his Assistant (Women) and Beneficiaries (Children) at risk too! Now I understand that this has to be done with tact too, and I don’t suggest that in order to start humanizing yourself that you start putting your personal business out there with every God and Earth you meet. It ain’t nothing like hearing some Supreme Math Gossip and a lot of these Willie Lynch nigga’s can’t wait to try and destroy eachother by masking the shit as building! So definitely do the Knowledge before you Wisdom! When I put certain stuff out there that I’m sure makes some people uncomfortable it’s for a purpose. It’s designed to identify ways in which we can do things more effectively. I always offer solutions because that’s what Mathematics is about, and yes, in the process I do season this food with alittle dry humor!

See, you don’t really want to be remembered as “The God who deal with that Masturbation Science”, or “That’s the Earth that was dealing with Cee rule allah cee king”! All I’m saying is that burying things doesn’t make them go away and it’s quite therapeutic to be able to confide in someone who is supportive of your growth & development as a person. Personally, I don’t want to push myself to an early grave because the things I’ve been holding inside killed me!

The things that I’ve been through, the embarrassment, the struggles, the challenges, the losses and the gains have forged me into a person who appreciates life. I remember times I ate 1 meal every two days for 3 months and that was not because I was reading How to Eat to Live by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. One year I slept in 15 different places and it wasn’t simply “Because the Earth belongs to the Original Man”! I’ve been dealing with Custody/Child Support Court plus degree’s since 1999 and I’ve also tried to make Venus into the Earth on quite a few occasions, with her sexy ass! These are just some of the Surah’s in my Koran.

So when I come off the way that I do don’t get offended, it’s the truth and the way that I see it. This Way of Life is ultimately about self observation which proceeds self improvement. I encourage all of you to be more open in sharing with others who you are, who you really are and stop acting like your body don’t remove waste! If people see you uptight and unappreciative about living a Culture that you say is Free, then why should they want to learn about it? Shit, they could be somewhere else enjoying themselves! So smile and wipe that frown off your face, get a massage to relieve some of your tension and really build with your brothers and sisters, it’s a wonderful day and time to be God and Earth!

Disorders such as Invincibility, Narcissism, Overcompensation, Cognitive Dissonance and Prideful Arrogance are dilemmas that many of us find ourselves suffering from simply because we lack the openness to express our humanity. The simple more holistic remedy for these disorders is a sense of humor! Without it, the more mainstream alternative that is used to treat patients with Post-Traumatic Superhero Syndrome is done through specialized Doctors, Ministers, Nurses and eventually a Cremator. Not only are these methods not designed to serve our best interests, but they keep us entrapped in a system of rules that regulate our collective destiny as a Nation! If you ever watched the Superfriends and saw the Legion of Doom, Bizzaro was a stiff, clumsy, doofus muthafucka’ who caused all kinds of damage just off the strength of that! Let’s not let our “Superpowers” morph us into something that backwards and ugly! Word is Bond, or we will continue to find ourselves explaining to a muthafucka' how we ain't a Gang!

"Kaw, Kaw! Peace God, I Knowledge 120! Kaw, Kaw!"

Einstein, The Amazing African Grey Parrot

Religified Gods and Groupie Ass Earths!!

First let me start by saying what I am not. I don’t belong to a Father Allah Fan Club nor do I rock Nation Paraphernalia like a die-hard Mavericks fan in the NBA Finals! I don’t carry Supreme Mathematics like some rigid Chuck Norris Karate moves nor do I compulsively quote what “The Father” said like it’s Harlem Hadith! The reason I put that out there is because I’ve come in contact with too many “religious folk” who claim to be Gods and Earths who have yet to understand what Culture FREEDOM or SELF STYLED Wisdom really means! These folks are what I call Religified Gods and Groupie Ass Earths! Let me break it down.. .

What inspired me to write this article is a visit I had on the 12th of June. Right after they got their Show & Prove fix for the year, a couple of Gods and an Earth got in contact with me through one of my brothers. Because of that, I automatically opened my home to them on the strength of his rapport. Me and one of the Gods build briefly on the phone and I gave him directions to Atlantis (Niagara Falls) and eventually to my Kingdom. Everything was a Peace vibe until I began to observe their way's and actions!

To be more specific, when you meet someone for the very first time and you are invited into their home enter with a sense of respect. These people walked right through my house without even thinking about taking off their shoes! The Earth included! 85er’s even have enough sense to observe this type of “basic” civilization. The brothers did put they Newport’s out before coming in my Kingdom and I respect that, but when I allowed one God to roll some herb up at my kitchen table he didn’t clean up after himself. To make matters worst, I walked them all down to a nice natural lookout spot where you get a beautiful view of the Falls and one of the brothers who brought a Pepsi with him stood there and threw the empty can over the lookout point!

They tried to build, and when I say tried I mean “tried”. I could tell that it was more external to them in regards to impressing someone and hearing themselves speak. You know how some Gods and Earths only parrot cliché quotes of other people? That’s how they sounded, not really authentic, plus they had very limited knowledge of thoroughly investigating other sciences. When I asked them about their interests (Major Science) they couldn’t even tell me anything! When I built with them about The Father being a manifestation of one of the more contemporary expressions born through a society of dissatisfaction, while others had been born before him (Al-Hallaj, Hazrat Inayat Khan and etc..) and after him (we are living proof) they looked dumbfounded! They couldn’t believe the actual fact (which I directed them to study) that The Father wasn’t the only person to teach that the Black Man was God! I built about how other’s (male & female) received this Knowledge in different eras, in different geographic locations and in a different language. While observing their ways and actions they had the nerve to expect me to accept them because of what The Father did! I’m looking at them like “Yeah, that’s Peace what he did, what are you doing. Lets deal with you being The Father or Mother to your own Civilization”! It’s fine to acknowledge, honor and respect our Elders that came before us, I’m just not interested in sitting around and simply feeling good about their contributions knowing that I am also a said person of that ability. I really don’t want to go into the “miracles” surrounding the shots fired in a elevator, I’m alittle more interested in networking and building! I’ve always seen the Universal Flag as a National representation of me, while I watch others Patriotically rep they flag! That’s just me, you won’t really find me talking too much, I’m more concerned with teaching because light travels alot faster than sound! Also, always remember that teaching and talking are two different things, some people confuse the two. Slick rhetoric ain’t synonymous with building.

Now here comes the devilishment. In the middle of my train of thought one of the brothers asks me to quote the 34th degree in the 1-36. Naturally I’m like “what”? I welcomed them into my home, was gonna give them the key to stay there while I rested somewhere else and anything else they needed to be comfortable and this nigga gonna ask me some bullshit to try to see if I can quote a degree in 1.3 seconds flat! I know they were alittle upset that I didn’t just give them credit based upon who they knew, where they been and how proficient they could parrot lessons! I was more interested in Knowing them and what they were really about, and when that Religious God and Groupie Earth shit ain’t move me it made them question their own true self worth. That is exactly what I wanted them to do anyway, to realize that it’s ultimately not about “The Father this and The Father that”, it’s about what you are actively doing to add on to this unique legacy! I told them that I appreciate him and I appreciate my physical Father just the same. It trips me out when I see people deifying The Father and speaking of Allah in the third person all the time. On a deeper psychological level you can see that the only true difference between people in the Nation of Islam and some people in the Nation of Gods and Earths is The Father is their Almighty God instead of Fard Muhammad.

*Side note- See when I speak about Allah outside of myself and in the third person it is only in the context of defining The Father in a given situation. To me when I hear a Nation of Islam Minister constantly repeating “Allah in the person of Master Fard Muhammad” and a God constantly repeating “The Father Allah” it always sounds the same. Both of them sound religious to me when it came down to it.

Regardless of what I showed this brother and his people as family, he felt that he needed to question me. I thought to myself, if I wanted to be on some gully shit instead of welcoming them into my home and even offering them to stay there I could have easily made all of them quote 120 before I let them even use my damn bathroom! I didn’t come off like that. We can sit down and go through degrees and really build b.u.t. don’t come at me on some destroy shit to seek ways to boost your ego because I’m the piece with the magnetic and you’re the piece without.

Anyway, it took me some seconds to redirect my train of thought and recall the degree. This “Strawman Tactic” served as an opportunity for him to redirect the conversation about knowing my degrees because I didn’t say it in 1.3 seconds flat! Now make sure you do the knowledge on the “Strawman Tactic” link because it gives you a lot of insight into this Psychological Tool that is prevalently used by these Black Devils who mask themselves amongst the 5%! It’s one of the Sciences of Tricknowledge and since my Ole’ Earth was a Psychologist I got some of these lessons from her as a youth.

After this exchange, the brother took his pack of cigarettes out, lit up a Newport and took a nice long pull off his cancer stick and began to walk off like “The Duke” would ride off into the sunset! Wisely I said “That’s Peace, I don’t quote all 120 Lessons every day and it would be good if I started quoting them more often”. In response to him, I said that he should work on overcoming his nicotine habit because those cigarettes are killing him. I spoke plain and simple truth and instead of taking the truth and standing to be corrected his defensive response was “I don’t do it around the babies”! In Psychology this reaction is defined as “Cognitive Dissonance” so I knew where he was coming from. I also drew that destructive shit up in the 8th degree of the 1-14’s, “Because he didn’t want the seeds to know how filthy and contradictive he is in his affairs. He is afraid that when they learn about him they would run him from amongst them by questioning him about saying one thing and doing the complete opposite”!

Ultimately we parted ways and said Peace b.u.t. there was still residue left behind and we didn't come to an Understanding. Not only was I upset with the way they treated me, I also felt bad for those innocent people who may come into contact with them and as Representatives of The Nation of Gods and Earths. I could dissect this for a while about these folks so let me end by giving you a short bullet list of some things that can be learned from this twilight zone type of experience:

1. Learn General Civilization first before running off at the mouth. Learn basic lessons such as taking your shoes off at the door when you’re a guest at someone’s home, cleaning up after yourself (especially in their home) and not littering in someone’s neighborhood. No matter how “swell” you think you sound and mathematical gymnastics you perform, it takes seconds to bring to the light how you are really living!
2. Quoting 120 does not equal “learning your Lessons”. African Grey Parrots can quote degree’s so that’s not what it’s “all” about fam. If you Know Lessons but haven’t learned your Lesson’s your just an 85er or 10 Percenter in drag!
3. This is a Way of Living not a Religion. The answer to my 9th degree in the 1-10’s doesn’t say 1969 and The Father should not be worshipped as Fard Muhammad in blackface! If you find yourself “systematically” talking about Allah as outside of yourself in the third person all the time, then you need to re-evaluate what it is you say that you know about Culture!
   
4. Let the Universal Flag be a representation of you, even if you don't have it on! Many people that call themselves Gods and Earths be walking around reppin’ the Flag like zealot Patriotic Americans after 9/11, but when you look at their lifestyle you’ll see that they don't truly express the values that we teach! Being compulsive is one of the things that turned us off from Religion in the first place, remember?
   
5. Eazy E. got a son that raps and he has been mooching off “his Father’s” legacy to gain credibility for who he is. It will work for a while but people will begin to question what he brings to the table to add on. This is also true with us. You can only tell so many “The Father” stories until people start asking you "What do YOU say and do YOURself"! I’m not saying that we shouldn’t appreciate his words, I’m just saying that we need to do something with them in our own Self Styled way!
   
6. Earth’s respect and appreciate your Man, and quit being God groupies! Your role is not to function like some cool ass sunni muslim women! Your getting Knowledge of YOURSELF. By being a Queen you will automatically Know who he is, so look within you! Don’t be indoctrinated because as Ego shattered as blackmen are, many of us will seize your response to this Culture as a opportunity to get on some 10% shit and beat you in the head with a blackman’s education! He’ll have ya' “longing for a man” ass seriously considering polygamy while overlooking his spotty employment record and lack of quality time spent with his children! All in the name of him being a savage in the pursuit of Ego Gratification!
   
7. By lip professing someone’s else’s wisdom (The Father) it doesn't make you wise! You only make a fool out of yourself trying to sound wise when people see you chain smoking cigarettes at the same time! We are not holy b.u.t. we are not hypocrites either! You only discredit yourself when you think that people should accept what you say and not question you when you are clearly doing the opposite!
8. True Growth & Development hinges upon our ability to stand to be corrected. To be honest about our inconsistencies and resolved about doing what it positively takes to be productive Men and Women. Therein exists the essence of our Divinity! If you can’t honestly look at and deal with what it is going to take for you to be a productive Man or Women, then you missed the point of what this is ultimately all about! Don’t expect people to acknowledge you as a God or Earth when your not even being a decent, considerate, respectful, clean, organized and responsible Man or Women first.

"God Tribe Called Shabazz"

First of all I'm feeling ambivalent about making it to the Show and Prove this Weekend. I really want to go b.u.t. some other more pressing issues came up. My financial resources had to be fully directed towards Custody Court on June 13th. I had to retain a Lawyer because I'm seeking Residential Custody of my two young Queens Asiyah (10) & Aziza (8)! I have a very, very good case in "Showing & Proving" that I'm the best suited Parent to provide their needs. Hopefully I'll be bringing them with me next year! Anyway, here’s some thoughts and situations that I’ve dealt with lately besides that:

• I see that Michael Jackson and 50 are doing a song together! Willie Wonka meets King Kong and this joint might go "Plutonium" forget Platinum! I’m also interested in seeing what the video will look like (if they do one). My guess is that they’ll do it like the Nelly/Tim McGraw video where they made sure that they never shared a scene together! It won’t be nothing as ego-crushing and career dismantling than to see Mike with his feminine nut grabbing screeches dancing right next to Fifty lookin’ all hood making gun gestures with his hands towards the camera! This situation can be either an explosion or an implosion!

• I was recently approached by this Wiz who told me that her “Married” friend who just had her 3rd child 6 weeks ago, who’s husband is still recovering from a car accident he suffered in the last 6 months “wanted to know my status?”. Among other “things”, she thinks I’m honorable! All I can say about that one is you won’t read about that in my Koran! The ill thing about it is that she actually told this Wiz to ask me! Obviously, we as an Original Man have alot more work to do in regards to changing how we are “collectively” perceived. She really must have expected me to react to this too & by jumping out of some nigga’ bag!

• Last month I did the Knowledge to the movie “Memoirs of a Geisha”!!! It was on point. I tell you, I need me an Earth that carry her science like a Geisha, word is bond! They took that “how to keep a man and in general how to act at home and abroad” MGT & GCC Science to the level of an art! I mean, these Wiz’s show & prove that many of us have truly been settling for the poor part. Don’t just rent this joint, buy it and add it to your Book of Life!

• I work at the Seneca Niagara Casino. I Native owned and operated “gaming” operation that is unlike any place I have ever worked at before. It’s a whole story within itself. Anyway, on the “Wisdom Day” (The 2nd) this Colored Woman (white woman) came into work all excited about what she learned at work yesterday. She quizzed everyone (about 7 other people) during Pre-shift (A “Manager” coordinated 10 minute meeting before the start of the shift) about what a “Rusty Trombone” was! She stated that it’s when you kneel behind a guy and toss his salad while you beat his monkey (to paraphrase her)! She dropped this nasty shit like it was a jewel or something. I’m standing back feeling like my conscience was raped. Anyway, “a savage means a person who has lost the knowledge of him/herself & is living a beast life”!

• My young Queen Asiyah (10) got chosen to participate in a Leap Forward Program because she is enrolled in this SAT Afterschool Program sponsored by Jamir Nelson of the Orlando Magic. It’s a 4-year 5 week Summer Camp program where she stays on a College Campus, learns subjects like Science, Math and Latin and travels to do field research. She also got selected to participate in a Youth World Leadership Conference in DC next Spring! She’s been doing her thing. Even though I’m proud of her, I constantly try to emphasize that she is living for her and that this is about the knowledge of “herself”, not the knowledge of Saladin. I show her (and my other Queen Aziza) the Freedom of living this Culture in a way that we naturally got these lesson’s; from the natural, free flowing world around us! Anything other than that would be a religious crime.

• Over the past month I’ve been doing a Community Video Project with my class. We’ve been going out in the immediate Community getting interviews from residents and film footage to document how the Community can be developed. We are also emphasizing the major components that define a Community such as Family, Culture, Economy, History and Architecture. It’s been fun and enlightening! One disturbing thing we found in one square block was 9 homes that were boarded up and abandoned by absentee landlords. To add fuel to the fire, the doors were either wide open or could be opened with a simple twist of the doorknob! Statistically, 60% of all homes make less than $25,000 a year and 45% are below the National Poverty Line. Besides this, only 10% of the people have a College degree. Many of my students come from this environment and I feel blessed to have an opportunity to be a part of reversing these statistics and showing & proving that the Cream always rises to the top!

• Through observation I noticed that I have a sexual cycle that I go through. It’s a time when I’m really feeling intimacy compared to times that I’m strait without it. It’s approximately a four week cycle. The interesting thing about this is the fact that I’m not the only one who knows this! Wisdom’s (Women) pick it up like a specialized cologne forged from pheromones! Sometimes I feel like I’m walking around with a shirt on that say’s “Alpha Male”! From the perspective of the Ego, yeah it feels good, b.u.t. at the same time I know that it’s a temporary attraction power. Discipline is the glue that holds us together, especially the brother’s! There were times when I built with a Wiz and was all wise right & exact and when that cycle come around.. . Well, let’s just say that it’s a very humbling experience. I say this all to say what? To the brother’s, know your cycle and be honest about it! One of the greatest “National” setbacks is when we are showing and proving the righteous dimensions of our Culture and began seeing this sincerely reflected in a Wisdom’s eye’s, only to find ourselves exchanging body fluids with her like a scene from a Michael Douglas movie! Don’t get me wrong, ain’t nothing wrong with making love, but brother’s we gotta’ make sure that it will not compromise our integrity or have her doubting our ability. She will test us!!! It’s a bad feeling to look in a woman’s eyes who your trying to teach and know that she ain’t really listening to shit you saying by the smirk on her face. She’s probably sitting there wondering when the next time she can get you to hit it from the back, like the other “nigga’s” she dealt with!

• I formally got Knowledge in Born Power (95). To look back on the 11 years since I’ve had my lesson’s I’ve become happier, healthier and more aware of what my destiny is comprised of. Sure I’ve gone though hell, but I have always come out right through learning what I needed to be taught at the time. By being committed to “PEACE” and saying “PEACE” as much as I do, it continues to have a profound effect upon my state of being and worldview. I also live in an environment that reinforces this too. All in all, there is nothing more fulfilling and beautiful than living life the way in which it was designed. Take the time to use your nose to smell the scent of a blossoming flower, listen to the song of the birds, hug someone that you love, and stop for a moment to gaze at the stars! As ugly as people can often “make” life be, appreciate what life was and will be long after they are gone!
