The document summarizes the teachings of the ancient Egyptian vizier Ptahhotep, which were first published around 2388 BC and constitute the oldest surviving book in the world.

The document then presents Ptahhotep's teachings on topics like humility, dealing with opponents, leadership, and proper etiquette.
The Dogon people of Mali have extensive astronomical knowledge about the Sirius star system that seems to exceed what could be known through telescopes. Their oral traditions accurately describe Sirius B, a companion star to Sirius A that is invisible to the naked eye and was only discovered scientifically in the 1800s. The Dogon knowledge includes details about Sirius B's elliptical orbit, small size, heavy density, and white color. They also have traditions about a third star in the Sirius system and calendars related to other astronomical phenomena. Their extensive astronomical lore suggests influence from an advanced, external source.
- 144,000 ancestors arrived on Earth from Sirius 78 trillion years ago and inhabited the planet, increasing their population to 1 billion eight million (1b8m) over 7,000 years.
- The original inhabitants created perfect plants and animals and established the Black Nation, dividing the population into tribes, clans, and cities, with rituals and customs covering all areas of life.
- For over 78 trillion years the original divine system of government existed, until 6,000 years ago when a God named Yahweh caused the birth of new non-Black races to experience aspects of humanity contained in the recessive light gene.

This document is the introduction and table of contents to Martin Delany's 95-page treatise "The Origin of Races and Color". Delany wrote the treatise to counter scientific theories of his time that claimed white races were more evolved or superior to black races. The introduction provides background on Delany and the context of scientific racism in the late 19th century. It also summarizes that Delany's treatise will argue that the first civilizations were created by black Africans in Egypt and Ethiopia, and that the origin of human races stems from three basic skin colors, with the "Indian (red) or Adamic race" being the first. The table of contents then lists the 18 chapters that make up Del
The document discusses that the Bible and world events should not be taken literally, but rather symbolize psychological and spiritual experiences within a person. It states that the key is to recognize that the world is a mystical matrix happening within oneself, and that one is actually God experiencing themselves through dreams. Reality and the stories in the Bible are part of this inner spiritual journey of self-realization.

This document discusses the Law of Imagination according to the teachings of Kenneth Andre. It asserts that we are visual beings made to awaken our imagination, and that the kingdom of God is within us in our imagination and mind. It provides biblical passages and quotes from spiritual teachers to support claims such as our thoughts and assumptions shape our reality, and that by imagining our desires as already fulfilled we can manifest them. The key is persistent assumption of the wish fulfilled through focused imagination.

This document outlines the foundations of Luciferian sex magick based on ancient traditions. It describes the allegorical origins of Ahriman/Lucifer as the bringer of forbidden knowledge who was cast out of heaven for rebelling against the tyrannical god Ohrmazd. Ahriman went on to create demons/daevas and initiate them into his path. The document provides instructions for tantric sex magick practices focused on awakening the chakras and inner demons using techniques like meditation and karezza to achieve non-thinking states and illumination. It explores the nature of Ahriman as embracing both light and darkness and using chaos to challenge stagnation.

This document discusses themes of spirituality, religion, and technology. It suggests that we are living in a simulated reality or "matrix" and references Bible passages to support the idea that the reader is God or divine. It encourages awakening to one's true nature and seeing that everything is a reflection of the self. Technological progress is seen as parallel to spiritual evolution. The style jumps between topics making it difficult to follow at times.
The document discusses the three dimensions of the human experience - spirit, soul, and body. It outlines how their relationship changed throughout biblical events from the beginning of creation to after the fall of man to the new birth and receiving of the Holy Spirit. The progression of sin impacted all three dimensions, but the Holy Spirit allows our spirit and soul to be restored while in this current physical body.

This document provides definitions and context for understanding the Goetia and the practice of black magic. It defines magic as the conscious elevation and evolution of the self, while black magic involves separating from the natural order through antinomian processes. The document explains that the spirits in the Goetia can be initiatory forces for self-development, and that black magic develops and refines the self on every level, though it requires discipline. It was inspired by original manuscripts but presents the material in a modern Luciferian form focused on will and self-development.

The document discusses concepts from ancient Egyptian philosophy and religion, and their connections to modern quantum science. It summarizes that the ancient Egyptians understood quantum science and viewed gods as classifications of discrete particles, forces, and characteristics that make up the universe. It states that the heart was seen not just as a muscle but as the "quantum force" of humans, called the SaHu, and discusses how religious institutions later co-opted ancient Egyptian teachings. The document encourages learning quantum science concepts from the ancient Egyptian "Mystery System" to understand truth and gain liberation from oppression.

Melanin is a pigment found in humans and other organisms that determines skin and hair color. It is produced by cells called melanocytes and provides numerous benefits beyond just protecting the skin from sun damage. Melanin is found throughout the body and is necessary for proper brain, nerve, eye, and cell function. Those with higher melanin, such as those with darker skin, experience additional advantages like younger-looking skin and reduced risks of neural tube defects in pregnancies. Melanin may also enhance overall performance and intelligence.
We explore these two terms, why there is tension between these two groups in the Black Community and addressing actually raising true Black consciousness to progression.

The document discusses evidence that supports the claim that ancient Egyptians were Black Africans, including:
1) Physical anthropology studies showing Egyptian skeletons and skulls had Negroid features similar to modern Black Nubians.
2) Melanin tests on Egyptian mummies indicating their skin was Black.
3) Linguistic, cultural, and religious traditions linking ancient Egypt to other parts of Africa.
4) Accounts from Greek and Roman authors describing ancient Egyptians as Black. The document analyzes 10 pieces of evidence from anthropology, linguistics, culture, religion, and eyewitness accounts to argue the original settlers of ancient Egypt were Black Africans.
The document discusses biblical references related to the Antichrist, including prophecies from books such as Daniel and Revelation. It describes the Antichrist as a king who will blaspheme God, speak great things, wage war against believers, and demand worldwide worship through force. The document warns against taking the mark of the Antichrist or worshiping any idol or image. It emphasizes having wisdom to understand the prophecies about the Antichrist and the beast from the sea.
The document provides an analysis of chapters 12 and 13 of the Book of Revelation. It discusses the symbols of the sea beast and earth beast described in chapter 13. The sea beast represents a persecuting world power with authority over "every tribe, people, language and nation." The earth beast assists the sea beast and forces people to worship it. The document suggests the sea beast represents the papacy and the earth beast represents the United States, which rose to power in 1798 as the papacy's wound was healed. It indicates the prophecies appear to be accurately foreshadowing future events.
The document discusses Russia's role in end times Bible prophecy based on passages in Ezekiel and Revelation. It argues that Russia, represented as Gog and Magog, will lead a northern confederacy of nations to invade Israel, but will be defeated by God at Armageddon. Armageddon is described as the valley where God will gather and judge all nations, preceded by events involving the drying up of the Euphrates river and spirits influencing nations like frogs influenced revolutionary ideas. The timing of these events is placed just before Christ's return to establish His kingdom on earth.
Who is the Antichrist? What is his mission? Why will God permit his rise to power? What does the Bible declare will happen to Israel and the gentile nations because of him? What will be his end? How does he counterfeit Christ?
In this section of our study, Pastor Mitch goes through chapters 12 and 13 and gives some possible explanations for the difficult parts of this passage.
This document provides summaries of chapters from the Gospel of Matthew. It summarizes that Matthew was written to prove Jesus is the Messiah for Jewish people. It then lists the 12 apostles and notes one was a Zealot who opposed Roman occupation. Several passages from Matthew are summarized, including Jesus giving his apostles authority, his instructions to them, healing on the Sabbath, parables, blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, and chapters 14 through 16 which summarize Jesus rejecting Nazareth, feeding crowds, walking on water, debates with Pharisees, and Peter confessing Jesus as the Christ.
The document discusses the passages in Revelation about the two witnesses and the beast. It argues that the two witnesses are Elijah and Moses based on their described powers matching what is said of Elijah and Moses in the Bible. It asserts that the beast is not a kingdom but a singular man, referred to as the king of the bottomless pit, who will ascend out of the pit during the tribulation period. His names in Hebrew and Greek both mean "destroyer." The document provides analysis of several Revelation and Old Testament passages to support its interpretations.

The Great Harlot represents Jerusalem and Israel who committed spiritual adultery and prostitution through idolatry. The document examines scriptural references where Israel is referred to as a harlot due to her unfaithfulness to God. It identifies Jerusalem as the Great City that reigns over the earth and is contrasted with the holy New Jerusalem. Jerusalem shed the blood of believers through persecuting and killing prophets and followers of Christ. Symbols of the Harlot represent Israel appropriating symbols of God's priesthood while practicing pagan rituals. Israel took on identities of Egypt and Babylon due to adopting their occult beliefs, seen also in the anti-Christian Talmud and Kabbalah.
The document discusses interpretations of passages from the Book of Revelation about beasts and a dragon that represent corrupt governments and Satan. It argues that one beast government will become very powerful and popular globally, resembling aspects of communism, fascism, and capitalism. This beast will persecute Christians and demand worship, forcing people to receive a mark to buy or sell. The number of the beast is identified as 666. Overall the passage suggests that a future one world government will emerge that persecutes believers but will ultimately fail when Jesus returns.
1) Satan is a fallen angel who was once called Lucifer but was cast down from heaven for desiring to be worshipped over God.
2) Satan rules over a dark spiritual kingdom and uses demons, false prophets, and those who lead people away from God to oppose God's rule and spread evil.
3) Jesus defeated Satan's power by dying on the cross for mankind's sins, rising from the dead, and being exalted above all rulers and authorities in heaven and earth. Those who submit to Jesus are delivered from Satan's power.
This document provides an overview of an expositional Bible study taught by Harry Morgan on the Old and New Testaments.

Key passages are cited that teach about how Jesus is revealed throughout the Old Testament scriptures.
Revelation 2 feb 19, 2012 message slidesJohn Smith
Jesus reveals himself to John on the island of Patmos to commission him to write letters to 7 churches in Asia Minor and a prophetic book about end times. Jesus knows each church intimately and walks among the 7 golden lampstands which represent the churches. The letters contain both praise and warnings for the churches to repent from sin and hold firmly to their faith in Jesus, who promises victory to the faithful.
The seven trumpets begin. Sometimes called the one-third judgments. Blood, darkness, locusts and Euphrates dried up are parts of the judgments. 200,000,000 man army from the East invades the Middle East. Over a billion people killed by this army.

1) The author wishes his parents had considered how their actions in conceiving him could impact his body, mind, and future. This may have led him to "a quite different figure in the world."
2) The Homunculus, or human embryo, is deserving of the same rights and protections as any human. However, disruptions during its development could have long-lasting health impacts.
3) The author's father complained to Uncle Toby about some "injury" that seemed to impact the author's behavior as a child.

Dr. Amos N. Wilson_The Battle Must Be Joined | A Revolutionary PoemRBG Communiversity
This document calls for joining the battle against racism through direct action and confrontation. It states that true change requires risking defeat, fighting "hand to hand" through institutions and traditions, and creating a new world order through rebuilding and restoring what has been destroyed. The battle must be fought through the mind, spirit, will, money, technology, and physical confrontation if needed. Ultimately, change depends on ordinary people taking up the challenge and making this new world their own.
The Revolutionary Psychology of Dr. Amos N. Wilson_text only versionRBG Communiversity
1) The passage discusses the revolutionary psychology of Dr. Amos N. Wilson and emphasizes the need to join the battle for liberation through concrete action and building new institutions.
2) It criticizes assimilationist leadership that seeks integration into white systems of power and calls for a true nationalist movement that works to replace oppressive systems with Afrocentric alternatives through entrepreneurship and future-oriented work.
3) A true nationalist educates both children and adults, builds international networks, and delegates power rather than being obsessed with the past or destroyed civilizations. Nationalism requires concrete progress.
Imperialism 101_ Chapter 1 of Against Empire by Michael ParentiRBG Communiversity
This document provides an overview and analysis of imperialism. It discusses how imperialism has shaped world history over the past few centuries through the colonization and oppression of indigenous peoples. While imperialism has had massive impacts, it is often ignored or sanitized in mainstream discourse. The document examines the economic drivers of capitalist imperialism, how it has exploited the land, labor and resources of the global south for profit. It also debunks common myths used to justify imperialism, such as the notion that colonized regions were inherently poor or culturally backward.
This document outlines standards and guidelines for members of the African People's Socialist Party. It discusses that Party members must be committed to serving the people and struggling for African liberation, unity, and socialism. The Party aims to educate the masses and lead them in struggles to solve their problems and undermine the imperialist system. The document explains the Party's revolutionary strategy and role in developing the political consciousness of the people through organizing struggles. It emphasizes the importance of discipline and subordinating individual interests to serve the Party and liberation movement.
This document contains multiple quotes from Malcolm X on a variety of topics:
1) Malcolm X criticizes those in the black community who are too comfortable with their current situation and unwilling to push for further progress and change.
2) He expresses that while he is against racism and discrimination, he does not view himself as an American due to the oppression black people face in the U.S.
3) Malcolm X emphasizes the importance of black unity before trying to unite with other groups, and calls for greater understanding between black people to overcome divisions.
This document summarizes key points from Dr. Amos Wilson's book "Blueprint for Black Power" regarding economics and Afrikan nationalism. It discusses Wilson's argument that an African American/Caribbean/Pan-African bloc could generate significant black power to counter white and Asian power networks. It also analyzes potentially powerful black institutions and advocates for greater use of financial tools and institutions to promote economic empowerment. Wilson asserts that true black power requires ownership and control over critical resources like property, wealth, and organization, rather than just political offices. The responsibility of the African American community is to ensure Africa's economic development and invest in rebuilding Africa.
The 14-Point Platform of the African People's Socialist Party outlines their core beliefs and goals. The key points are:
1) They believe African people in the US experience colonial domination and oppression, and seek peace, dignity, and self-determination.
2) They believe the capitalist system exploits African labor and want rights to economic development and jobs that benefit their people.
3) They do not believe African people have meaningful political representation, so do not want to pay taxes to the US government.
4) They want freedom of speech and association to organize for liberation without fear of imprisonment or harm.
5) They view all African people as part of a single entity, and want the

Garvey argued that the Black race will be exterminated if it does not build a Black superpower in Africa by the end of the century. He summarizes Marcus Garvey's legacy, including his institution building, profound ideas, and projects for successors. Key aspects of Garvey's legacy were his establishment of political, business, social, and paramilitary institutions through the UNIA; ideas like race first, racial autonomy, self-reliance, nation building, and industrialization; and his dramatization of Black power that inspired future leaders despite attempts to discredit him.
Decolonizing the African Mind: Further Analysis and Strategy_Dr. Uhuru HotepRBG Communiversity
This document provides an overview and framework for discussing the psychology of African liberation. It discusses how Europeans perfected methods of psychological manipulation and control over Africans through processes of colonization, deculturalization, and mis-education. These processes aim to strip Africans of their culture and replace it with European culture in order to manipulate and control them. The document outlines the history of European colonialism in Africa and how it led to the colonization of African lands, knowledge, and minds. It discusses how deculturalization and mis-education have affected African Americans and aims to brainwash them. The document concludes by discussing the need to decolonize the African mind through reversing these processes and embracing African concepts and orientations.
This document summarizes the evolution of scholarship on the Black Power movement. It notes that early narratives portrayed Black Power negatively and dismissed its impact. However, over the past 15 years, new scholarship has provided nuanced analyses that demystify the movement and document its profound implications. The essay examines how the study of Black Power has grown from being part of civil rights historiography to becoming its own distinct field. It traces the roots of the Black Power movement in earlier 20th century radicalism and outlines some of the movement's key activities and impacts during the late 1960s and early 1970s.

The 14 points are considered the basic political education course for understanding the Party's ideology and practice. The document urges members to memorize and internalize the 14 points and use them daily in organizing Africans to liberate Africa and their people.
This document contains Malcolm X's speech given at the London School of Economics in 1965. In it, he makes 3 key points:
1) American society is racist and uses the media to portray Black communities as criminal to justify police brutality and oppression.
2) Western powers manipulate the media to control the narrative around conflicts in Africa, portraying violence against Black communities as justified while ignoring mass murder.
3) Centuries of colonial rule created a negative image of Africa that caused Black people in the West to internalize racism and hate their African identity and features.

This document summarizes the evolution of scholarship on the black power movement. It discusses how early narratives portrayed black power negatively, undermining civil rights struggles. Recent studies have provided more nuanced perspectives, establishing black power studies as a field.

Teaching of Ptahhotep
Source: http://www.digitalegypt.ucl.ac.uk/literature/ptahhotep.html
The Introduction
The Teaching is set at court, with the highest official ('vizier' in Egyptological translation), a man
named Ptahhotep, requesting retirement from the king. The official paints a bleak picture of old
age, evidently to convince the king that retirement is necessary, and asks that he be replaced in
office by his son as 'staff of old age', a term also found in a late Middle Kingdom legal document
to denote a son taking the office of his father, presumably on condition that he continues to
support the father (UC 32037). This term, the Middle Egyptian syntax and the late Middle
Kingdom date of the two earliest surviving manuscript copies, point to a Twelfth Dynasty date of
composition.
The king consents to the request of Ptahhotep, with the observation that the young cannot be
born with wisdom - by implication they need the experience given by advanced age. The
Teaching presents then both a positive and the dramatised negative aspects of growing old in
ancient Egyptian society.

The teaching of the Overseer of the City and Vizier Ptahhotep
before the power of the dual king Isesi living for ever and eternity.
The Overseer of the City and Vizier Ptahhotep declares:
O my sovereign,
Old age has struck, age has descended,
Feebleness has arrived, weakness is here again.
Sleep is upon him in discomfort all day.
Eyes are grown small, ears deaf,
Mouth silent, unable to speak,
Heart emptied, unable to recall yesterday.
Bones ache his whole length.
Goodness has turned to evil,
All taste is gone.
What old age does to people is evil in every way.
Nose is blocked, unable to breathe,
how old (it feels) standing or sitting.
Let a staff of old age be decreed to be made for this humble servant.
Let him be told the speech of those who assess,
the advice of the ancestors once heard by the gods.
Then the same may be done for you,
strife may be removed from the populace,
and the Two Shores may toil for you.

If you plough for plants on the margins,
the god grants it to be great by your hand
Do not inflate your mouth beside your neighbours;
to inspire awe by being silent is greater.
A master of character who is master of wealth,
he seizes like a crocodile in the council.
Do not scorn the childless man,
do not bemean by boasting over it.
Even a father can have his plenty of grief;
a mother who has given birth may be less happy than a maid.
It is the lone man that the god fosters,
while the lord of a clan may beg to be followed.

If you are weak, follow a man of excellence
and all your conduct will be good before god.
When you have known lesser men before,
do not be proud against him,
from what you knew of him before.
Respect him according to what he has become,
for goods do not come of their own accord.
This is their law for their desire.
An overflow - he has assembled it of himself.
It is the god who makes him excellent,
and protects him while he sleeps.

Follow your heart as long as you live.
Do not make a loss on what is said,
do not subtract time from following the heart.
Harming its time is an offence to the ka.
Do not deflect the moment of every day
beyond establishing your heart.
As things happen, follow (your) heart.
There is no profit in things if it is stifled.

If you are a man of excellence
and produce a son in the favour of god,
if he follows precisely the outline of your character,
and ties your things to their proper place,
do everything good for him,
for he is your son, he belongs to the shooting of your ka
Do not separate your heart from him.
Seed may make a disputant;
if he wanders, and breaks your advice,
and has rebelled against all that is said,
and his mouth wanders into evil speech,
battle him in all his words.
He who attacks you is the one they have condemned.
It means it was decreed that he be smitten (from the time he was) in the womb.

resist approaching the wife.
It is not good for the place where it is done,
It is not clever to open it up,
A thousand men are tied against what is good for them;
a little moment is like a dream,

If you wish your conduct to be good
and to save yourself from all evil,
resist the opportunity of greed.
It is a sore disease of the worm,
no advance can come of it.
It embroils fathers and mothers,

It entangles the wife and the man,
it is a levy of all evils,

who proceeds according to his paces.
He can draw up a will by it.
There is no tomb for the greedy hearted.

Hearing is good for a son who hears,
hearing enters into the hearer.
The hearer becomes one who is heard.
Hearing is good, as speech is good.
The hearer is the master of what is useful.
Hearing is good for the hearer,
hearing is better than any other thing;
love of good comes into being.

How beautiful it is when a son receives what his father says.
Old age is achieved for him by it.
The hearer is one whom the god loves.
The one whom god hates does not hear.
The heart is the creator of its master.
Do not hear from the one who does not hear.
A man's heart is his life, prosperity and health.
It is the hearer who hears the speaker,
the one who acts according to what is said is the one who loves hearing.
How good when a a son listens to his father.
How joyful is the one to whom this is said.
A son who is handsome is a hearing lord.
The hearer to whom it is said is effective in the body.
Mempory of him is in the mouth of the people,
Those who are on earth, and those who will be.

If the son of a someone receives what his father says,
There can be no wavering for any of his plans.
Instruct your son to be a good hearer,
who will be excellent in the hearts of the officials,
guiding his mouth according to what he has been told,
seen as a hearer.
The son who excels, his steps are distinguished,
but there is no straight way in for the one who fails to hear.
The morning of the wise man will be his security,
while the fool is pressed down.

As for the fool unable to hear,
nothing can ever be done for him.
He sees wisdom as ignorance,
and what is good as what is painful.
He commits every error,
to be accused of it each day.
He lives on what one dies of,
corrupt speect is his food.
His character in this is well-known to the officials,
saying 'living death' each day.
His faults are passed over
from the sheer number of faults on him each day.

A son who hears is a follower of Horus
It is good for him after he hears.
In his old age he achieves revered status.
He can tell the same to his children,
renewing the teaching of his father.
Every man teaches by his deeds.
He tells on to the children,
and they can tell their children.
Show character, do not pass on your weaknesses.
Securing what is right, is the life of your children
As for the principal who arrives with wrongdoing,
people say what they see
'that is exactly how that man is'
to say to those who will hear
'that is exactly how that man is' too.
Their everyone sees, and the multitude is pacified.
There is no profit in riches without them.
Do not remove a word, do not add it.
Do not put one in place of another.
Fight against opening up the bonds on you.
Guard against a man of experience saying
'listen up, if you wish to be secure
in the mouth of those who hear;
speak up when you have penetrated the case of the craftsman'.
You speak at the case of closure,
and all your plans will fall into place.

Be straight in character before your lord.
Do as he has said, that is the son,
sothose who hear it say
'indeed favour gave birth to him'.
Say things of distinction,
so the officials who hear may say
'how perfect is the issue of his mouth'.

Do as your master has said for you.
How good is one instructed by his father
when he emerged from him out of his body,
and he told him, while he was in the body, entirely,
May what he has done be greater than what he was told.
See, a good son, by the gift of the god,
surpassing what he was told before his lord.
He does what is right.
His heart has acted according to his set steps.
As you reach me, your body intact,
the king content with everything,
take years of life.
What I have done on earth is not little.
I took 110 years of life
by the grant of the king to me,
favour ahead of the ancestors,
from doing what is right for the king until the stage of revered status.
