Dr. Rodney Shabazz's Kemetic Sciences Part 4

Thus said, Brahma, Lord of all, Lord of the utmost limits, after he had come into being. He said, I am the one who came into being as kepper. He who comes into being and brings into being. When I came into being, being itself came into being. All beings came into being after I came into being. Many were the beings that came forth from the commands of my mouth. Heaven had not yet come into being, nor had earth come into being, nor had the ground been created, or the things which creep and crawl upon it. I raised up beings in the primordial waters as in earth things. I found no place on which to stand. I formed it from the desire in my heart. I laid the foundation through my heart. I created forms of every kind. Many were the forms which issued forth from the commands of my mouth. Not yet had I established you, the power and principle of light and air, nor sent forth Teflon, the power and principle of moisture. There existed no one who acted together with me. I conceived it in my own heart, and there came into being a vast number of forms of divine beings, as forms of offspring and forms of their offspring from then. I'm going to stop right there for a second, because what does that establish to you? I'm going to use the emhotepian. Teaching reptiles at this point. The grapes, they steal these reptiles, and so they call it the Aristotelian method of teaching, when you teach by asking these questions. They're just giving them to you. Is that what they call it? The Aristotelian method? Oh, I'm sorry. The Aristocratics method. But they got that from the now-beautiful value. We should really call it the emhotepian method. So what is this revealing to you? What is this paragraph? What is this passage revealing? What do you see? What's coming out in regards to what we're saying here about it? The nature of ancient chemo-theology. I'm hoping that you should see here that it's a model of teaching. We want to create this part of their teaching. If you've ever watched the movie The Prince of Egypt, if you've ever watched that Prince of Egypt with your children, that movie in and of itself will put forth the idea that the Egyptians were polytheistic. Really polytheistic, as I said, this is a Western term that they really ascribe to all cultures who have spiritual traditions that they can't really comprehend. And from their perspective, they comprehend them as separate forces of nature, separate forces of a universe that are operating in and of their own realm, not connected to the supreme one that created them, etc. So they would prefer to these cultures as polytheistic. What I usually tell my classes is that a better term, a more accurate term to speak of when talking about African culture and Khmeric or Khmeric culture would be the term monopan-theism. I might have created that term, I don't know. This might be an original, I don't know. But it kind of makes sense when you look at what the ideas were that were coming out of the culture. Monopan-theism, pan, of course, means all as one. I say monopan-theism because there's a belief in the supreme creator of the universe. But it says here in the last part of that passage that they came into being a vast number of forms of divine beings and forms of offspring and forms of their offspring from them. So once the supreme created a rod, created the heavens and the earth, which were divine beings and of themselves. When you're talking about, when he says, I created the heaven, he's talking about I created nut. You know this is the goddess of the heaven. I created the earth. He's saying I created Jed. Jed is the god or the masculine force, the power of the earth. All right? And so there's a monopan-theism because yes, there is a recognition that there are entities that reside and define and rule over certain aspects of nature or every aspect of nature and every aspect of nature was given a divine entity to identify that particular aspect by. It's really a scientific teaching that merges with theology. It's really a theological science is how people were taught science and taught the essence of spirit that exists within all universal matter. Raja says, I came forth from among the plants which I created and I created all things which creep and crawl and all that exists among them. Okay? Again, so again, it's a monotheistic creator that's creating all creation. Then he says, then by the power and principle of light and air and the power and principle of moisture, heaven and earth were brought into being. All right? We can name those if we want. And by the earth, by earth and heaven, Osiris, Horus, Seth, Isis and Nymphis were brought into being from the womb one after another and they gave birth to the multitudes in the land. All right? And so that's really where I want to talk about tonight and that's where I want to end tonight after I talk about this cosmology, this theology. And it says here that essentially, Amenra is the Lord of Universal Creator and through those elements that he created, eventually there were humans that were created to descend from the heavens. Where in the heavens were they to descend from? They would actually descend from, according to this cosmology, this theology, they would descend to descend from the star that is known as Sirius, not Sirius A, not Sirius C, but the star that they call Sirius B. That in, if you look at the cosmos on a clear night, even in the winter sky tonight, if this sky was clear, we could look up into the sky in this part of the earth and see Orion's belt. Orion's belt is, are those three almost inter-role stars, all right? But Orion's belt was so important about Orion's belt, it's not necessarily Orion's belt itself, but what those stars point to, the stars point to the stars A, B, and C of Sirius. But when you look at that star, Sirius, all you can see is one star. But in truth, in reality, there are three stars there. But you can't see the three stars with the human eye, all right? And, but the people of Comet, they were aware that there were three stars there. And just to, just to double off, tell off on this for a second, that when we go to Mali in West Africa, amongst the people that are known as the doggone of Mali West Africa, even to this day, I mean, I think about a hundred years ago, there were some anthropologists and archaeologists that went to study with the doggone, and they had heard about the doggone's complex cosmology, and that the doggone told these anthropologists about a star that they used to, to do their agricultural works and to create their calendars-based apollos. And they referred to the star as Potola. They called the star Potola, but they identified the star, they identified the star as, as the same as Sirius V. So these anthropologists, these French anthropologists, they didn't really believe that these poverty-stricken people who look like, you know, they could barely build a house, much less know where these things are in the universe that the eye can't see. You know, they didn't believe them until they created a telescope, and they put the telescope, they pointed the telescope at that star, and from low and below they saw a Sirius V, Sirius V, Sirius C, with the telescope, with the Africans, the doggone, as well as the people of Kermit, they were conscious of that star without the telescope, alright? And the reason that star was so important to those two cultures was because they said that all that you see, all the matter that you see in the universe was actually born from that star, Sirius V. And that, you know, they talked about the, you might have heard about the Akashic records and the thoughts of humanity and the souls of humanity that all that is considered virtuous and good and ever living is said to eventually return to that particular galaxy, that particular star system, Sirius V. And so it is from this star system, Sirius, Sirius, Sirius...
