The WORD spoke to the ocean of consciousness and said BE. The created responded I AM. So who am I? A consubstantial agminate of sound waves from SOURCE ENERGY raised to the frequency of a lion trapped in a man's body!
In November of 2009 I wrote an article titled Reinterpretations of the Ankh Symbol: Emblem of a Master Teacher. I revised the article last night and it is ready for your review. I have come across new information that further strengthens my initial argument and also raises new questions in regards to the symbolism and titles associated with Jesus the Christ in the Hebrew myth, and whether it comes from Kongo/Nigeria/Cameroon. You will want to get down to that section. Download the file and tell me what you think. Be easy!
Here is a brief documentary film titled War For Your Soul produced by Reggie Bullock. Check it out and let's dialogue about its contents. How do you feel about the end conclusion?
To be or not to be may not be the most important question, but more so, “Who shall we be?” The holocaust of enslavement and its subsequent manifestations in the United States has rendered catastrophic disharmonies within the African-American personality. With the loss of ancestral family names, cultures and social systems, the formerly enslaved Africans have been like a ship adrift in a hostile sea; moving in whatever direction the tide of identity takes them.
Black people in America have had to ask some very fundamental questions about their identity, such as: What is the historic nature of names? How did we acquire our names? What is the importance of a proper name? What do our current names mean? Do our current names accurately reflect our collective history, gifts, vision and purpose?
The BAKALA of North America: The Living Suns of Vitality asserts that the historical names given to the formerly enslaved Africans in the United States (Black, Colored, Negro, African, African-American) do not adequately reflect the spirit of the people. Asar Imhotep offers for consideration a name that is rich in meaning and wide in its application which accurately reflects the history, gifts, vision and purpose of African-American people.
The BAKALA of North America takes us on a philosophical and linguistic journey that begins on the banks of the river Nile, to the forests of the Kongo; from the slave ports in Ghana, to the river of the mighty Mississippi. Asar Imhotep’s research, scholarship, synthesis and creative application of various disciplines convincingly supports the notion that the name BAKALA (the charcoal, enlightened, vitalistic, people of the sun) best reflects the personality of the African-American. The more fascinating aspect of this work is the notion that we've always been BAKALA, we just never realized it.
I have been engaged in some recent debates concerning the possible relationship between ancient Egyptians and modern West African cultures. In the midst of the discussion I presented some images for comparison of West African art sculptures that resemble the Bes figure of ancient Egypt. In the midst of this debate I noticed something about the figures that may make an even stronger case for cross continental and cultural influence. If it wasn’t for the debate I probably wouldn’t have noticed this.
What concerns us in this discussion are the poses of the West African figures and what they could possibly mean in our ancient Egyptian figure of Bes and other Egyptian sculptures. Although the figures that were displayed in the initial discussion were from Egypt, Nigeria and Cameroon, the possible meaning of the poses may actually come from the Kongo in central Africa. I will begin by discussing the Kongo figure of the Nkisi Nkondi as a foundation for our discussion. Nkondi pakalala pose
Above is a figure called Nkondi which is like a diploma given to the Nganga who are the community’s specialists, healers, leaders who deal with social issues. An nganga can be a therapist who is invited by the community Mbongi to deal with any issue that may arise and affect the community.
I have done a revised article linking Egyptian God-Force Concept of Heru to the Zulu of South Africa. I have also postulated that the name Heru (which I argue became Zulu) is the source of the Indo-European word for the sun helios, sol, sunne, sun, etc. The document can be downloaded at the link below. Please read and provide your feedback when you get a chance.
