This book was released on with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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).
Book Synopsis ANIDAHO - Awareness by : Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan
Download or read book ANIDAHO - Awareness written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page pages. 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 Synopsis MOOR MEANS 'DEAD' by : Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan
Download or read book MOOR MEANS 'DEAD' written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page pages. 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 Synopsis NYANKOPON and NYANKONTON - RA and RAIT by : Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan
Download or read book NYANKOPON and NYANKONTON - RA and RAIT written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page 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.
Book Synopsis ANKH: The Origin of the Term 'Yoga' - KARA KASA: The Origin and Nature of the 'Chakra' by : Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan
Download or read book ANKH: The Origin of the Term 'Yoga' - KARA KASA: The Origin and Nature of the 'Chakra' written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ANKH: The Origin of the Term 'Yoga' - KARA KASA: The Origin and Nature of the 'Chakra' There is a great deal of misinformation regarding the notion of what ‘yoga’ is and how ‘chakras’ are related to yoga. This misinformation has been propagated by the whites and their offspring who have fraudulently co-opted these terms and created false etymologies to place them in their own languages. They further moved to take fragments of ritual practices of Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa) and manufacture pseudo-religious practices and a corresponding dogma which has no basis in reality. These acts were and are deliberate acts by the whites and their offspring, spirits of disorder, to control the spirits/minds of Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans) whose lands and cultures they invaded and desire to maintain complete control over. The corruption of the Ancestral Religion of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) people by the whites and their offspring is an act of war. It was the final attempt by them to gain a foothold in our societies which they were unsuccessful at taking through various failed military engagements over the course of millennia. The western eurasian version of the corruption of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion manifested via the pseudo-religions of christianity, islam, judaism and their pseudo-esoteric branches. The eastern eurasian version of the corruption of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion manifested via the pseudo-religions of hinduism, vedanta, jainism, buddhism, taoism and various others. These pseudo-religious practices do not lead to enlightenment nor any manner of spiritual development. They are designed to keep Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) people the spiritual and physical slaves of the whites and their offspring, thereby allowing them to control us, our land and its resources – until we awaken. The terms ‘yoga’ and ‘chakra’ have no etymological roots in proto-indo-european languages. We demonstrate conclusively and for the first time that these terms are found in the language of ancient Kamit (Egypt). They are woven into the cosmology of ancient Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion and Culture. Once understood, their connotations for spirituality and ritual practice are totally different than what has been promoted by the whites and their offspring over the centuries.

Book Synopsis MMARA NE KYI - Divine Law/Love and Divine Hate by : Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan
Download or read book MMARA NE KYI - Divine Law/Love and Divine Hate written by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan and published by Odwirafo Kwesi Ra Nehem Ptah Akhan. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MMARA NE KYI - Divine Law/Love and Divine Hate Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion is defined in essence as the ritual incorporation of Divine Law and the ritual restoration of Divine Balance. Through ritual we incorporate those things, objects, deeds and entities we need to harmonize with Divine Order and through ritual we reject those things, objects, deeds and entities we need to in order to restore balance to our lives. Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion animates our culture, our way of life, for Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Culture is the Divine acceptance (Love/Law) of Order and the Divine rejection (Hate) of disorder. The phrase mmara ne kyi is Akan for law and hate. These terms derive from the same terms in Kamit: maa hna kht. Divine Law and Divine Hate are the Expansive and Contractive Poles of Divine Order. In this work we properly define these concepts inclusive of the fact that there are Deities (Abosom, Orisha, Vodou, Ntorou/Ntorotu [Neteru/Netertu-Ntrw/Ntrwt]) who embody these concepts: Maa and Maat (Law) and Heru Behdety and Sekhmet (Hate). We demonstrate that Law and Love have always been the same concept in Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) culture and that Hate has been and always will be Divine. Just as there are Deities of Law/Love, there are Deities of Hate. Moreover, and most critically, without an understanding of the Divinity of Hate one has absolutely no understanding of authentic Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) cosmology, culture, religion, philosophy and its infrastructure: Divine Order.

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.

This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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: “A good read for anyone who wants to understand what actually determines whether a developing economy will succeed.” —Bill Gates, “Top 5 Books of the Year” An Economist Best Book of the Year from a reporter who has spent two decades in the region, and who the Financial Times said “should be named chief myth-buster for Asian business.” In How Asia Works, Joe Studwell distills his extensive research into the economies of nine countries—Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, and China—into an accessible, readable narrative that debunks Western misconceptions, shows what really happened in Asia and why, and for once makes clear why some countries have boomed while others have languished. Studwell’s in-depth analysis focuses on three main areas: land policy, manufacturing, and finance. Land reform has been essential to the success of Asian economies, giving a kick-start to development by utilizing a large workforce and providing capital for growth. With manufacturing, industrial development alone is not sufficient, Studwell argues. Instead, countries need “export discipline,” a government that forces companies to compete on the global scale. And in finance, effective regulation is essential for fostering, and sustaining growth. To explore all of these subjects, Studwell journeys far and wide, drawing on fascinating examples from a Philippine sugar baron’s stifling of reform to the explosive growth at a Korean steel mill. “Provocative . . . How Asia Works is a striking and enlightening book . . . A lively mix of scholarship, reporting and polemic.” —The Economist
Book Synopsis Domestications by : Hosam Mohamed Aboul-Ela
Download or read book Domestications written by Hosam Mohamed Aboul-Ela and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestications traces a genealogy of American global engagement with the Global South since World War II. Hosam Aboul-Ela reads American writers contrapuntally against intellectuals from the Global South in their common—yet ideologically divergent—concerns with hegemony, world domination, and uneven development. Using Edward Said’s Culture and Imperialism as a model, Aboul-Ela explores the nature of U.S. imperialism’s relationship to literary culture through an exploration of five key terms from the postcolonial bibliography: novel, idea, perspective, gender, and space. Within this framework the book examines juxtapositions including that of Paul Bowles’s Morocco with North African intellectuals’ critique of Orientalism, the global treatment of Vietnamese liberation movements with the American narrative of personal trauma in the novels of Tim O’Brien and Hollywood film, and the war on terror’s philosophical idealism with Korean and post-Arab nationalist materialist archival fiction. Domestications departs from other recent studies of world literature in its emphases not only on U.S. imperialism but also on intellectuals working in the Global South and writing in languages other than English and French. Although rooted in comparative literature, its readings address issues of key concern to scholars in American studies, postcolonial studies, literary theory, and Middle Eastern studies.

The Diamonds are planted in the human world as the sons and daughters of the most influential families, and tasked with destroying it from within.
