Im Hotep Seshatasefekht
Kmt continues to come up because of its remarkable beauty and deep spirituality. Believe me, I am also always yelling KMT KMT KMT. Don't get me started on the 18th Dynasty...I could go on and on about Hatshepsut and Tiye and Akhenaten and Amenhotep III and Nefertiti...
However, our people in West Afrika also had a moral code, a religion, an art form, and a series of inventions and pioneerism, including voyages to the West and settling in with the Native Americans in North and South America and the Caribbean as well. I embrace West Afrika as tightly as I do the East because I understand that the same tenets that held in Kmt are imbedded in much of the spirituality of the West.
I believe I understand why Rastas worship HIM as God, but Jah has not taught me that about Him/Herself. I have been taught not to worship anything that breathes, that is limited in time and space, and is thus ephemeral. I cannot confine God to a single place or person because there is nowhere I can look without seeing Her Face. I am, as it were, swimming in primordial Nun. Everything that exists, whether real or imaginary, is God.
