Here is a brief interview conducted by Almas Jamil Sami' for his internet series titled "Sami Says." Interview was conducted Saturday October 1, 2011 in San Antonio, TX.

This is the first video in a series discussing many aspects of my recent book titled Passion of the Christ or Passion of Osiris: The Kongo Origins of the Jesus Myth. This first video discusses the name Jesus, in part, and how Osiris and Jesus are the same word.

Human Being


"When Imagination is in Alignment With Purpose"

 

What does it mean to be human? What was the purpose of our design? What specific tasks are we as human beings charged with to carry out for the good of the universe? What is our next evolutionary phase? These questions and more have been asked by sages and layman alike for centuries, and it seems as if the answers have been evading the human psyche for just as long. Humanity seems to have been dropped off on this earth with no instruction manual and no visible signs directing us on our journey to ensure our success. Sure, we can speculate as to what our job is individually, and some cultures have developed very sophisticated divination tools to ascertain a man’s purpose, but can we answer these questions for humanity in general? Is there a theory that sounds plausible enough to get us closer to the answers we seek?

In early 2007 I wrote an article that highlighted my thoughts on what it takes to be a top-notch poet. I created a framework called The Seven Chambers of Poetry that I thought was pretty neat. I am republishing it here for those who never read it. It is also in my first book Esodus: Internal Reflections and Conversations with the Sun (2007). I may need to revamp this article a little and see where it goes. Maybe I can open up a school of poetry. Hmmmmm!
