The African
Unconscious
A few weeks
ago I was introduced to an amazing book by a business associate, who thought it
would be of interest and he was correct. “The African Unconscious” by Edward
Bruce Bynum is a well-researched scholarly work that follows the development of
the early human race that began in Africa and migrated throughout the world.
The foundations
for many of the cultures and religions that we know today can be traced to
early Egypt. The Ta-Seti the world’s oldest known civilization for many years
was considered the Mother of ancient Kemet(Egypt). There is now research that
shows that there were twelve Nubian Kings who ruled in the Middle East before
the first Egyptian dynasty.
When we talk
about the golden years of ancient Egypt we now understand the great minds that
developed the science, religion and technology were Nubian. This knowledge was
erased from European history (or his-story) by scholars who Bynum describes as
“sophisticated prostitutes” and during that time the big money was in
capitalism, slavery and the expansion of Europe into Africa and the Americas.
In time
according to Bynum it became inconceivable in the West that black Nubian
Africans could have made the great accomplishments of early Egypt. To this day
many still believe that the early Egyptians were white or mixed but not black.
A fine example of this attempt to change history can be found in museums that
have exhibits of ancient Egyptian art. The noses of many of the figures are
disfigured or completely missing.
When
Napoleon marched through Southern Egypt and discovered the Great Sphinx one of
the greatest monumental sculptures of the ancient world; carved out of a single
ridge of limestone he had his artillery shot off the Nubian nose. Even though
it was suppressed for centuries the knowledge of ancient Egypt still holds an
unconscious presents in the culture of the Western world.
As stated in
previous articles (www.theartofwarogers.info) the politics of religion forced
this knowledge underground yet the majority of great minds in the arts and
sciences were members of secret societies who studied Hermetic philosophies of
ancient Egypt Da Vinci, Newton, Shakespeare, Jung, Marx even the Founding
fathers of America were mostly Masons or Rosicrusians. Thomas Jefferson was a
Rosicrusian, Benjamin Franklin was the grand master of the Philadelphia Masonic
Lodge, and George Washington was initiated into a Masonic lodge in
Fredricksburg, Virginia.
Washington
D.C. our nation’s capital has many relics and references to the wisdom of an
ancient society led by Africans who were Nubian even our American currency has
symbols of ancient Kermit. Is it any wonder why this information until only in
recent times was keep away from Africans in America. Some will read this a say
so what?
Knowledge is
power would be my first response. There is a conscious and/or unconscious
relationship to Africa in all members of the human race. It is important for
Africans though out the world to learn the wisdom developed by their Nubian
ancestors; wisdom that has been used and kept secret for the purpose of control.
The ancient Egyptian phrase “Know Thy Self” was considered the first step
towards enlightenment.
