Book excerpt: HOODOO PEOPLE: Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in North America - Akan Custodians of Hoodoo from Ancient Hoodoo/Udunu Land (Khanit/Nubia) Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) in North america brought our Hoodoo religion and culture with us in our blood-circles from Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) during the Mmusuo Kese (Great Perversity/Enslavement Era). This is an unbroken tradition which is not only intergenerational, but transcarnational. This means that it was and is informed by the Abosom and our Nananom Nsamanfo, Akan terms for Deities/Divine Spirit-Forces that animate Creation and our Spiritually Cultivated Ancestresses and Ancestors. It is through the Abosom (Deities) that our Ancestral Religious traditions are established. This is true of all Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) wherever we are in the world. When the Abosom first possessed our Ancestresses and Ancestors via ritual and communicated the Divine Order of Creation directly to them, our religious practice was established. When those first Ancestresses and Ancestors preserved what they were taught by the Abosom and transferred that tradition via protocols to their posterity without profanation, our religious practice was/is perpetuated. Our knowledge of Nyamewaa-Nyame Nhyehyee, The Mother and Father Supreme Being’s Order (Divine Order), our role in the Divine Order and the means by which we can ritually incorporate Divine Law and ritually restore Divine Balance to our lives is replenished in every generation as the Abosom and Nananom Nsamanfo continue to communicate with us via spirit-possession and spirit-communication. Ancestral Spirit possession includes communication with our ancient Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestresses and Ancestors up to our recently transitioned Ancestresses and Ancestors of good character. Whenever we have children we have drawn one or more of our Nsamanfo, our Ancestresses and Ancestors, into the womb to return to Asaase Afua (Earth Mother) once again. The knowledge of the religion and culture is written into their Okra/Okraa, their Soul/Divine Consciousness by Nyamewaa-Nyame, the Supreme Being. As they grow and develop they access this Ancestral knowledge and incorporate it into every aspect of their lives when properly acculturated. Through this process they positively impact the lives of everyone in the community. This is transcarnational transmission of culture, the intergenerational spiri-genetic transmission of culture which was/is impervious to being broken through the horrors of the Mmusuo Kese (enslavement).

This book was released on with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AKRADINBOSOM: Akan Abosom (Deities) of the Okra/Okraa (Soul) and the 7-Day Akan Week From Ancient Khanit (Nubia) to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in America Volume 1: Nokwaresem - Trustorical Cosmology Our publication of the six volume set, AKRADINBOSOM: Akan Abosom (Deities) of the Okra/Okraa and the 7-Day week – From Ancient Khanit (Nubia) to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in America is the first of its kind. The Akradinbosom are a particular grouping of Abosom, the Akan term for Deities – the Divine Spirit-Forces in Creation. The Akradinbosom, the major Divine Powers Who animate the solar, lunar and planetary bodies which govern the seven-day week have never been addressed in a publication regarding their identity, the nature of their functioning in Creation and their relationship to the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) individual in Akan culture. The Akradinbosom are the major Abosom (Deities) who govern all natural cycles in Creation and thus all natural cycles upon Asaase (Earth). We examine the direct relationship that these Abosom (Deities) have with Akan people based on the unique manner in which we have interfaced with them over the millennia. We elucidate how the Akradinbosom are assigned to the Okra/Okraa, the Soul, of each Akan individual pre-incarnation and are thereby directly tied to the Divine function, life-focus, purpose or ‘destiny’ the nkra/nkrabea of every Akan male and female. The super-structure of the nnawotwe, the seven-day week and the Abosom that govern it also governs every aspect of Akan life. This is true of Akan people in the regions of contemporary Ghana and Ivory Coast, West Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) as well as those Akan people who were forced to migrate to the western hemisphere during the Mmusuo Kese, the Great Perversity/Enslavement era. Those of us who reside in North, Central, South america and the Caribbean who are of direct, spiri-genetic Akan Ancestry, have always been directly impacted by the Akradinbosom, the Abosom (Deities) who continue to communicate with us, possess us, heal us, empower us and guide us throughout the course of our lives. In Volume 1: Nokwaresem – Trustorical Cosmology, we address the nokwaresem, the trustory (true-story, true history) of the Akradinbosom, their cosmological place in Creation, the nature of their relationship to the Great Mother and Great Father, Nyamewaa-Nyame, The Supreme Being, and their assignment to our spirits by Nyamewaa-Nyame before we incarnate into the womb and eventually born into the world. We address bebra, reincarnation, in relation to the provenance of the Okra/Okraa, the Soul, as a Deity in its own right assigned to dwell within the head region of the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) individual. We examine the relationship of our Okra/Okraa, Soul, and the specific Kradinbosom that governs our Okra/Okraa. We address the spiritual and political ramifications of our adherence or non-adherence to the guidance of our Kradinbosom facilitated through the agency of our Okra/Okraa. We properly define Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion and Culture, Nanasom and Amammere, as critical to our alignment and realignment with Divine Order on a consistent basis through the agency of spiritual alignment and realignment with our Okra/Okraa, Soul and the Kradinbosom governing the Okra/Okraa. We also elucidate the Akan origin of the seven-day week, tracing our roots to ancient Khanit (Khan/Akan land) and Khahnu – ancient Nubia and Libya, our migrations north to settle Kamit (Egypt) and further migrations north into the Near East to establish the civilization of ancient Kangi or Sumer. We demonstrate for the first time that the names and functions of the Deities of the Sun, Moon and Planets in ancient Sumer and Akkad (later Babylon) are found in the Akan language and ritual practices today unchanged. We also show that these are the same Deities with the same descriptive titles and functions in ancient Khanit and Kamit (Nubia and Egypt). The whites and their offspring learned of the seven-day week from our Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestresses and Ancestors. The seven-day week was taken into the Near East from Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa). In Volumes 2-6: Abosomsem – Spiritual Cosmology, we examine the nature and function of each of the eleven Akradinbosom in various aspects of Creation including their solar, lunar, stellar and Earthly manifestations as well as their shrines within the physical and spiritual anatomy the physical and spiritual organs and organs’ systems of the Akan individual. We also address their manifestations in ancient Khanit and Kamit (Nubia and Egypt) and through a comparative analysis their manifestations in Yoruba, Fon and Ewe culture and religious practice as Orisha and Vodou. In the Hoodoo tradition in North america, the Akradinbosom are recognized and worshipped. As we have demonstrated in our publication HOODOO PEOPLE: Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) in North America – Akan Custodians of Hoodoo from Ancient Hoodoo/Udunu Land (Khanit/Nubia), the Hoodoo (Ndu) Religion is the Akan Ancestral Religion in North america. It is through a Hoodoo Hwehwemu, a Hoodoo Analysis, that we are empowered by our Nananom Nsamanfo and the Akradinbosom, our Spiritually Cultivated Ancestresses and Ancestors of our direct blood-circles and the Deities who govern our heads, to elucidate the origin, nature and function of the Akradinbosom for the first time. This analysis is corroborated by archaeological, genetic and anthropological, including linguistic, data. This work will be the foundation for many other publications properly delineating the nuanced role of the Akradinbosom in Creation.

Book excerpt: KAMIT HENA NTORO - The Black Nation and Divinity The culture and people of ancient Khanit and Kamit (Nubia and Egypt) are Ancestral to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) all over the continent of Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) and around the world. Archaelogical data and genetic data when properly assessed has borne out the direct material and genetic link of contemporary Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans), inclusive of those on the continent and those who migrated or were forced to migrate outside of the continent, to the Ancestral culture and population of Khanit and Kamit which spans over 40,000 years. What is referred to as anthropological data is the third leg of a three-legged stool including archaeological and biological data which allows us to properly identify ourselves through time wherever we have existed in the world. However, anthropolgical data, inclusive of the study language, family organiztion, cultural and ritual customs and more is only revealing when a firm knowledge of the cosmology is attained. In Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral culture, knowledge of the cosmology is derived from the Ancestral Religion. Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion is informed by the Deities, the Divine Spirit-Forces in Creation, who are directed by the Great Mother and Great Father, the Supreme Being, to engage the process of spirit-possession and spirit-communication... ...In this publication we address the nature of the idenity of our people and our relationship with the Deities as codified in the ancient terms Kamit and Ntoro. These terms spelled in the medutu (hieroglyphs) typically without consonants: Kmt and Ntr define the ‘Black Nation and Divinity’. We utilize the Akan language and culture to elucidate the proper meaning of these terms, their proper vocalizations and their etymological and cosmological foundations rooted in the Ancestral Religion of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) people. This publication is the first to fully and properly define these terms.

It is through a Hoodoo Hwehwemu, a Hoodoo Analysis, that we are empowered by our Nananom Nsamanfo and the Akradinbosom, our Spiritually Cultivated Ancestresses and Ancestors of our direct blood-circles and the Deities who govern our heads, to elucidate the origin, nature and function of the Akradinbosom for the first time. This analysis is corroborated by archaeological, genetic and anthropological, including linguistic, data. This work will be the foundation for many other publications properly delineating the nuanced role of the Akradinbosom in Creation. In this volume we examine the nature and function of the Abosom Awusi and Adwoa who are called Ausar and Auset (misnomered Osiris and Isis) in ancient Khanit and Kamit.

This book was released on with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: REKHIT HENA SPERET Etymology and Cosmology of 'Religion' and 'Spirit' Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion IS Spirituality Excerpt from the Introduction: The notion that one is ‘spiritual but not religious’ or ‘into spirituality and not religion’ or that ‘religion is different from spirituality’ is totally inaccurate and born of ignorance of the etymological and cosmological roots and origins of the terms. The terms religion and spirit come directly from the Ancestral language of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) people as documented in ancient Khanit and Kamit (Nubia and Egypt), our civilization founded over 40,000 years ago. Our cosmology born of our ritual practices as Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) interfacing with the Deities and Ancestral Spirits gave birth to the words in our primordial Ancestral language. This includes the origins of the terms religion and spirit. These root terms continue to be spoken in our contemporary Afurakani/Afuraitkainit (African) dialects today wherever we exist in the world. This is the first publication to accurately elucidate the etymology and cosmology of religion and spirit. Religion and Spirituality are identical. It is pseudo-religion which is incongruent with spirituality. It was and is a political ploy initiated and perpetuated by the whites and their offspring to separate religion from spirituality and misdefine both terms. This ploy is designed, on one hand, to promote the pseudo-religions with their fictional characters who never existed in any form nor of any race inlcuding: christianity and jesus, islam and allah, judaism and yahweh, hinduism and brahmin, buddhism and buddha, etc. The doctrines of these pseudo-religions are designed to enslave the minds of Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) and by extension support white socio-economic and political control. On the other hand, the whites and their offspring promote alternative pseudo-‘spiritualities’ to entrap those of our people who have broken away from the established pseudo-‘religions’. New-age ‘spirituality’, ‘native’-american ‘spirituality’, kabbalism, sufism, hermeticism, wicca, gnosticism, various forms of european ‘magic’, vedanta, taoism, eastern and oriental ‘spirituality’, extraterrestrialism, drug-addict ‘spirituality’ and more are variegated expressions of these pseudo-‘spiritualities’ which serve to enslave the minds of Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) as well, simply packaged in different yet related rhetoric and symbolism. The result of embracing the pseudo-religions and pseudo-spiritualities for Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) people is the rejection of our identity, our Ancestral culture, our connection with the actual Deities/Divine Spirit-Forces in Creation and the Ancestral Spirits of our direct blood-circles and thus our capacitiy to align with Divine Order – inclusive of the Divine Mandate to exterminate our enemies. None of the ‘practices’ of the whites and their offspring qualify as religion nor spirituality. The only religion that has ever existed and ever will exist is Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion in its varied expressions in Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) such as: Akan, Yoruba, Fon, Ewe, Fang, Senufo, Khoi Khoi, Twa, Maasai, Gikuyu, Chokwe, Bassa, Lemba, Tuareg, Bakongo, Fula, Xhosa, Bambara, Dogon and more. Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion also includes its varied expressions outside of Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) wherever Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) people migrated or were forced to migrate around the world including in the western hemisphere inclusive of Hoodoo (Akan), Vodoun (Fon, Ewe), Juju (Yoruba), Gris Gris (Bambara), Wanga (Ovambo), Ngengang (Fang, Bakongo), Lukumi (Yoruba), Candomble (Yoruba, Fon), Winti (Akan) and more. All of these expressions of Ancestral Religion are united as they derive from our Ancestresses and Ancestors and thus our inherited capacity to align with the Great Mother and Great Father, Amenet and Amen – The Supreme Being through the agency of the Ntorotu/Ntorou and Aakhutu/Aakhu – the Deities and Ancestral Spirits. This capacity to align with Divine Order is the exclusive domain of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) people as we are the only created people in Creation and thus the only people who can experience spirit-possession and spirit-communication – direct interfacing with the Divinities that animate the Created Universe. This is Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Spirituality. The return to Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion is the reembracing of our Ancestral Spirituality as Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) people. It is the animation of our Ancestral Culture, our transcarnationally inherited way of life, which is defined as the Divine acceptance (Law/Love) of Order and the Divine rejection (Hate) of disorder. Amenet-Amen Sekher, Nyamewaa-Nyame Nhyehyee, The Supreme Being’s Order – Divine Order is our foundation. It is the basis of our development and the root of our Revolutionary-Resolutionary capacity to eradicate our enemies, reestablish our civlization and maintain our civilization.

Book excerpt: This book explores the genealogy of Jamaican dancehall while questioning whether dancehall has a spiritual underscoring, foregrounding dance, and cultural expression. This study identifies the performance and performative (behavioural actions) that may be considered as representing spiritual ritual practices within the reggae/dancehall dance phenomenon. It does so by juxtaposing reggae/dancehall against Jamaican African/neo-African spiritual practices such as Jonkonnu masquerade, Revivalism and Kumina, alongside Christianity and post-modern holistic spiritual approaches. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in performance studies, popular culture, music, theology, cultural studies, Jamaican/Caribbean culture, and dance specialists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold reconsideration of Hoodoo belief and practice Katrina Hazzard-Donald explores African Americans' experience and practice of the herbal, healing folk belief tradition known as Hoodoo. She examines Hoodoo culture and history by tracing its emergence from African traditions to religious practices in the Americas. Working against conventional scholarship, Hazzard-Donald argues that Hoodoo emerged first in three distinct regions she calls "regional Hoodoo clusters" and that after the turn of the nineteenth century, Hoodoo took on a national rather than regional profile. The spread came about through the mechanism of the "African Religion Complex," eight distinct cultural characteristics familiar to all the African ethnic groups in the United States. The first interdisciplinary examination to incorporate a full glossary of Hoodoo culture, Mojo Workin': The Old African American Hoodoo System lays out the movement of Hoodoo against a series of watershed changes in the American cultural landscape. Hazzard-Donald examines Hoodoo material culture, particularly the "High John the Conquer" root, which practitioners employ for a variety of spiritual uses. She also examines other facets of Hoodoo, including rituals of divination such as the "walking boy" and the "Ring Shout," a sacred dance of Hoodoo tradition that bears its corollaries today in the American Baptist churches. Throughout, Hazzard-Donald distinguishes between "Old tradition Black Belt Hoodoo" and commercially marketed forms that have been controlled, modified, and often fabricated by outsiders; this study focuses on the hidden system operating almost exclusively among African Americans in the Black spiritual underground.

This book was released on with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AFURAKA/AFURAITKAIT - The Origin of the term 'Africa' Numerous scholars over the centuries have attempted to delineate the etymological origins of the name Africa. However, they have failed because of a lack of understanding of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion, cosmology and culture. Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan is the first to elucidate and publish the actual etymological origins of the name Africa demonstrating the name to be derived linguistically and cosmologically from Afuraka/Afuraitkait – the original male and female aspects of the name. This includes showing the actual term written by our Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestresses and Ancestors in the medutu (hieroglyphs) of Ancient Kamit (Ancient Egypt) – a discovery which heretofore had never been accomplished. Afuraka/Afuraitkait is an indigenous designation for the continent first propounded by Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) prior to the existence of any other people on Earth. The myths put forward by eurasians seeking to locate the origins of the name Africa outside of the continent of Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) and in the greek, latin, sanskrit, arabic, phoenician and other languages, have been shown in this article series to be a deliberate attempt by the non-Afurakanu/non-Afuraitkaitnut (non-Africans/non-Blacks) to misinform Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) and dispossess us of our heritage and culture. This is nothing new. We have been and will continue to be at war - culturally, intellectually, spiritually and physically - with the whites and their offspring, their culture and their pseudo-religions (inclusive of all forms of christianity, islam, judaism/hebrewism, hinduism, buddhism, taoism, pseudo-esotericism, etc.) until the whites and their offspring no longer exist in the world. We will always meet the challenge and will emerge triumphant on every level. The proper etymology of the term Africa was first given to us in the 12990s (1990s) by our Nananom Nsamanfo – Akan term for our Honored or Spiritually Cultivated Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestresses and Ancestors. It was our Nananom Nsamanfo who would also lead us to the tangible evidence supporting the etymological origins of the term in the languages, cultures and ritual practices of Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) – inclusive of Ancient Khanit and Kamit (Nubia and Egypt). We would subsequently release our publication: KUKUU-TUNTUM The Ancestral Jurisdiction in 13002 (2002), wherein we defined the term Afuraka/Afuraitkait and its cosmological roots in the first section. The release of our article series in 13007-13008 was designed to provide a more detailed analysis of the nature and function of the name Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) as it applies to Black People – and Black People only – and to expose the misinformation which continues to be propagated deliberately by the whites and their offspring, as well as by misinformed Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) scholars, teachers, authors, etc. This four-part series is the first volume of a greater series. There are numerous manifestations of the term and name Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) all over the continent and in the places we traveled after having migrated away from the continent thousands of years ago for the first time in our trustory. This is an attestation to the ancient spiritual roots of the name Afuraka/Afuraitkait. The information can and will fill many volumes. This is a never-ending project. ©Copyright by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan, 13007, 13008, 13011, 13014 (2007, 2008, 2011, 2014). All rights reserved. www.odwirafo.com

Book excerpt: KUKUU-TUNTUM The Ancestral Jurisdiction The KUKUU-TUNTUM is groundbreaking in the sense that we were the first to publish the correct etymologies of the names of the various fictional characters including: jesus/yeshua, muhammed, abraham, isaac, ishmael, moses, solomon, sheba, menelik, buddha, allah, yahweh, brahmin etc. Many writers have put forward false etymologies based on a lack of understanding of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) cosmology and culture. We were the first to demonstrate how these fictional characters were manufactured via the deliberate corruption of names, descriptive titles and functions of Deities of Kamit. We restore the consciousness of the Divine Balance of Male and Female in Creation founded upon Amen and Amenet and reaffirm the nature and function of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion. Finally, we were the first to demonstrate and publish the actual etymological and cosmological origins of the term Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) and thus our true identity as Black people, our role in Creation, the nature of our enemies and our path to restoration. Contents: Origin of Creation Origin of the name Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) Origin and nature of Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Culture Origin and nature of the whites and their offspring rooted in the insanity of dissexuality (homosexuality) and incest Cosmological Structure of Creation Nature and function of the Nananom Nsamanfo and Abosom, Egungun and Orisha, Kuvito and Vodou (the Ancestresses and Ancestors and the Goddesses and Gods) in Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion Origin and function of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Clans Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion Origins of the following FICTIONAL characters: abraham · isaac · ishmael · moses · aaron · david · judah · jesus · mary · yeshua ben pandira · muhammad · allah · yahweh · elohim · solomon · sheba · menelik · brahman · buddha and more Origins of the FALSE religions and FALSE religious writings: christianity and the bible · islam and the quran · judaism/hebrewism and the torah hinduism and the vedas · buddhism and the dhamapadas · european pseudo-esotericism and the qabbalah and more

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ANIDAHO - Awareness There is a great deal of misinformation being propagated in the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) community regarding the etymological origins of the terms ‘nigger’, ‘nigga’, ‘naga’, ‘negus’ and ‘god’. There are individuals in the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) community who propagate this information out of ignorance, attempting to conflate the derogatory term ‘nigger’ and its variation ‘nigga’ with ancient terms from Kamit (Egypt), Harrapa (Ancient Black India) and Ethiopia. In this work we give the proper etymologies of the terms 'nigger/negro' (nigga), Negus, Naga as well as the term 'God'. We demonstrate that the phonetic and conceptual roots of these terms are found in the language, culture and cosmology of ancient Kamit. This is the first publication elucidating these facts. We initially published the articles and the appendix in this publication separately. We have combined them here for ease of study and distribution. Anidaho is an Akan term meannig awareness. It literally means the eye (ani) lies upon (da) the self (ho). We must have awareness of who we are, who our enemies are and how they and their agents exploit our ignorance to keep us enslaved. Only then can we reorganize and move against them effectively.

Book excerpt: UBEN-HYENG The Ancestral Summons UBEN-HYENG (u· ben' - shehng') is the combination of the Kenesu/Khanitu-Kamau (Nubian-Egyptian) term, Uben and the Twi-Akan term, Hyeng. The terms are defined in their respective languages as descriptive of drawing forth by illumination, to shine; bright, brilliant. As a name, they are representative of the revivifying energy of Creative Power. Just as the morning Sun calls for the rejuvenation of Earth, UBEN-HYENG is a summons for the rejuvenation of the culture.

This book was released on with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NYANKOPON and NYANKONTON - RA and RAIT In this publication we correct the false notion that the Supreme Being and the Creator and Creatress are one and the same. Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) have always understood that the Great Mother and Great Father function together as One Divine Unit – the Supreme Being. The most ancient name for the Great Mother and Great Father is Amenet and Amen as shown in ancient Khanit (Nubia) and Kamit (Egypt). Amenet and Amen are called Nyamewaa and Nyame in Akan culture. It is Amenet-Amen as the Great Being who direct Ra and Rait, the Creator and Creatress to create the Universe. This reality is one that Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) people can and have verified via our direct interaction with Amenet, Amen, Ra and Rait over tens of thousands of years. This reality is thus woven into the fabric of our cultural and religious expressions inclusive of the manner in which we articulate cosmology. This was true in ancient Khanit and Kamit and is true in Akan culture – in its authentic expression. Because of the corruptive influence of the pseudo-religions of the whites and their offspring, many Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) have attempted to force-fit our cosmology into the foolish and invalid notion of monotheism. The whites and their offspring manufactured the idea of monotheism for political purposes. They sought to lure Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) away from communicating with the actual Abosom (Deities) who are connected to us by blood, for they understood and understand that as long as we connect with the Abosom, we will be directed to overthrow the whites and their offspring and eradicate the perverse influence they have imprinted upon our culture worldwide. They therefore sought to erase the memory of the various Abosom and put forward the idea that there is only one, male ‘god’ who the whites are the representatives of. This would cause the brainwashed amongst us to believe that if we fought against the whites, we would be fighting against the ‘will of god’. This was the only means by which the whites and their offspring believed that they could control Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) after invading our countries and communities. It has taken them thousands of years to spread this false notion, gaining success only within the last 100+ years on a major scale. Akan nations who have fallen under the corrupt influence of the whites and their offspring have attempted to conflate the Creator with the Supreme Being, while eliminating the reality of the Great Mother and the Creatress altogether. Thus Nyankopon (Ra) is fused with and said to be a ‘title’ of Nyame (Amen) in Akan culture. Moreover, Nyankonton (Rait) and Nyamewaa (Amenet) are forgotten altogether. In this publication we restore the truth about Nyankopon and Nyankonton as Ra and Rait – the Creator and Creatress of the Universe and their relationship as Servants of Nyamewaa and Nyame (Amenet and Amen). We have also included an appendix which demonstrates that strands of the authentic cosmology still exist within the culture irrespective of the corrupt influence of the pseudo-religions of christianity, islam, judaism, etc. This is expressed through two Anansesem (Ananse stories) which feature Nsia – the Mother of Nyankopon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MOOR MEANS 'DEAD' Excerpt: The whites and their offspring, after invading Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) civilizations and losing numerous wars to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans), decided to work on destroying our Ancestral Religion and Culture. This was a means by which they believed that they could disrupt the society, exploit divisions and ultimately divide and conquer. Part of the process was to demonize Black people. This is why all throughout white pseudo-religion black is defined as evil, of the devil, demonic, etc. Black is associated with death in a negative fashion. This goes directly back to ancient Kamit where Merit (death of the crops, flooding of the land, end of a cycle/season) was associated with Mer (pyramids/shrines for the dead) and mer (the dead, those who arrived in port and were mer-ed or moored and also the class of the dead who were damned) [see the related terms: morose, morbid, mortuary, moron, etc. meaning melancholy, psychologically unhealthy – associated with death, sanctuary of the dead, ignorant – mentally dead, etc. – all of which have the same roots in mr and later moor and are pejoratives]. Yet, the association with a social class (slaves, servants – socially dead/bound/moored/fastened to their labor and service) and a spiritual designation for a certain class of the deceased (the damned) was artificially expanded by the whites as a definition of all Black people. Those Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) who have embraced the idiocy of ‘moorish’ culture and identity and refer to themselves as ‘moors’, ‘muurs’, etc. are perpetuating the perverse agenda of the whites and their offspring. They are identifying themselves as ‘dead people’. Mru (Moors) – the dead, the damned Many of these individuals perpetuate as well the false notion that the term Black means ‘death’. They therefore do not call themselves Black nor do they understand the proper etymology of the term Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African). They therefore do not recognize nor embrace the reality that they are Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African). Black does not mean death – Moor means death

Book excerpt: THE OKRA/OKRAA COMPLEX - The Soul of Akanfo The Okra/Okraa Complex - The Soul of Akanfo is a text wherein we address the nature and function of the Soul/Divine Consciousness which is called Okra (aw-krah') and Okraa (aw-krah'-ah) in Akan culture. The Okra (masculine) or Okraa (feminine) is our personal Obosom (Deity) which resides in our head region. The Okra/Okraa is a Spirit-Entity which always guides us to live in harmony with Nyamewaa-Nyame Nhyehyee (The Supreme Being's Divine Order) and is the foundation for religious practice amongst Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People). The Okra and Okraa are called the Ka and Kait in ancient Khanit and Kamit (ancient Nubia and Egypt), Ori Inu in Yoruba and Se Lido in Vodoun. The cosmology which is the foundation for understanding the nature and function of the Soul/Divine Consciousness is fundamentally the same for Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) worldwide. This nhoma (book) will thus deepen one's understanding of the Okra/Okraa by whatever name It is called in our various Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) cultures. Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) culture includes those of us who held on to our Ancestral traditions through the horrors of enslavement in the western hemisphere. It was our adherence to our Ancestral traditions, our alignment with our Okra/Okraa, the Abosom (Deities) and our Nananom Nsamanfo (Honored Ancestresses and Ancestors) which gave us the fortitude to free ourselves from enslavement and reconstitute our Ancestral blood-circles.

This book was released on with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OBARIMA - Afurakani Manhood Obarima (aw-beh’-ree-mah) is the Twi/Akan term for man. It refers not only to a male, but also an honorable, powerful male worthy to be called man, obarima. In Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Culture, your/our Ancestrally inherited culture, manhood is not defined only by age or biology. To be obarima in the true sense is: to recognize, internalize and demonstrate through thought, intention and action a specific configuration of principal values. These principal values stream from the Divine and Ancestral Forces of manhood that define your spirit and shape your potential. Male-ness is defined by biology. Adulthood is defined by age. Yet, there can exist an adult male who is not yet obarima, an adult male who is not yet a man. This means that the individual has reached the age where his body is full-grown, however his character is not fully grown. This is a male who thinks and acts like a child. This is unnatural, unacceptable and self-destructive to self and community. It is very easy to identify such individuals in the Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African~Black) community---and the disorder they perpetuate. As an Afurakani male, when you embrace the fullness of your Ancestry, physical and spiritual, you ascend naturally in harmony with your biological development to the position of obarima. You are then and only then capable of participating in the Natural/Divine Order of which you were/are created to be a component part. You are then and only then capable of fulfilling your unique function in the world, without creating or perpetuating disorder in the process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African religion is ancestor worship; that is, funeral preparations, burial of the dead with ceremony and pomp, belief in eternal existence of souls of the dead as ancestors, periodic remembrance of ancestors, and belief that they influence the affairs of their living descendants. Whether called Akw?sidai, Homowo, Voodoo, Nyant?r (Aboakyir), CandomblZ, or Santeria in Africa or the African Diaspora, ancestor worship centers on the ancestors and deities. This makes it a tenably viable religion, because living descendants are genetically linked to their ancestors. The author, a traditional king and professor, studies the Akan in Ghana to demonstrate that ancestor worship is as pragmatic, systematic, theological, teleological, soteriological — with a highly trained clerical body and elders as mediators — and symbolic as any other religion in the world. Ancestor worship follows prescribed rites and rituals, formulas, precepts for ritual efficacy, and festivities of honor with music and dances to provoke ancestors and deities into joining in the celebration.
