Re: What do we believe and why???
In Response To: What do we believe and why??? ()

There is a Creator/creator force

~ I know this from personal experiences and not from any 'religion'.

Mankind originated in Afrika

~ I realized Mankind originated in Africa when I was an adult from reading the histories of different people, and again also, from a personal realization. (One day I will explain this, I am sure.)

Spirit is above Mind which is above Body

~ Many books allude to this, but if you think about it, Spirit and Mind are also in the Body. People struggle to define the mind apart from the brain, however the mind is different.

Melanin is receipt (proof) of God's (ra's/rays) blessing

~ Well I doubt anyone can prove this unless they use a scientific definition for the term God. But melanin does come from/through the sun.

Dreadlocks are antennae to spirit/power

~ This is a myth that has not been proven.

Herbs, vegs, fruits, water are natures prescription

~ Yes, and anything people can think about that resolves problems. People and their thoughts are also part of nature.

Indigenous humans (and descendants) are more connected/grounded to God/Netjer

~ All people are descendants of more indigenous people. Today simply being more 'natural oriented' is no guarantee that one is more spiritual. Ideas and awareness of spirituality also evolve.

Indigenous peoples especially of high melanin content have been exploited and annihilated

~ They have heavily exploited and annihilated Indian and Taino people, as well as Black Africans.

Womb-man is key to physical life

~ Animals, plants etc. are all physical life. In terms of human, physical life both male and female are equally important.

Spirituality is one, religions are many

~ It is not so straightforward, as Spirituality has different schools of thought and can be quite varied.

The world as we know it must and will change

~ True. Change is inevitable.

Whether we believe in a savior or not, the key to everything begins with SELF.

~ True.

Individuals have the power to change reality (prayer/meditation/magic)

~ Yes, and create new realities.
