Metaphysics and Magic.
The two terms have become synonymous with the spiritual systems of ancient
people across the globe. However, for some time, I have felt the need to
address the fact that both of these terms are actually misnomers for ancient
African art, science, and psychology which have touched every part of the
globe, including the so-called “Near East,” Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
I have heard men and
women who are genuinely well-versed in the practical application of ancient arts
that have been cultivated over the centuries by Stellar Men and Women, say that
they are proficient in “magic” and are authorities on “metaphysics.” Albeit, it
may not be their actual intent, they sometimes speak condescendingly about
those who have labored to focus on the more historical aspects of our ancient
cultures, while arrogantly flaunting their perceived knowledge of “magic” and
“metaphysics.”
However, if they were
to take a more holistic approach to their studies, by actually bothering to
study some more history, they would realize that that when they use terms like
“metaphysics,” and “magic,” they are talking about the spiritual disciplines of
ancient Black men and women from a white, European’s point of view. Like many students
of the soul sciences, I frequently used terms like “magic,” and “metaphysics”
in my older writings. Nevertheless, I am constantly fine-tuning my
understanding of what I have learned and experienced with regard to Black art, science,
and psychology.
This is precisely why I
would like to inspire people to constantly question what they think they know which
is what I continue to do for myself. Even after 15 years of intense study, and
an entire lifetime of direct exposure to Higher Culture, I still think that a
perpetual reassessment of what you think you know keeps you humble and mentally
receptive to deeper levels of realization. Unfortunately, you have a growing
number of people who came into higher awareness through YouTube, BlogTalk Radio
and Wikipedia, yet they have the nerve to pretend as if they are inherently
superior to people who have not been exposed to the culture of the stellar man, as they have.
Kitty litter for kittens in consciousness
There is a pervasive
spirit of arrogance and elitism that is stinking up the underground occult
community today and much of the stench is coming from brand new students who’ve
appointed themselves as teachers without taking the time to REALLY study the
subjects they speak on. I was recently talking to someone in a bookstore who
was telling me all of these things they knew about magic and metaphysics. I
allowed them to lecture me on things that I already knew because I recognized
that they needed it for their own self-esteem.
I asked the person how
long they had been studying. They said “I’ve been into this a while.” I asked
them “How long is a while?” They said two years. This person was clearly a kitten in consciousness, but in their own mind they were a jaguar. They proceeded to tell me about their
YouTube channel that I can “learn more from.” This person never asked me how
long I’d been studying, or what I thought about the subjects they lectured me on.
I didn’t feel the need to tell them, either.
Humility is a
prerequisite for attaining a higher understanding of the life sciences. The words
that we use on a daily basis serve to codify our reality. As we obtain higher
knowledge, we will see the value in abandoning words that do not accurately describe
the methodologies and disciplines that make up the ancient life sciences that
we are striving to understand.
Aristotle
The word “Metaphysics”
for example—as it is most frequently used—is actually a misnomer for Supreme
Psychology, which is the psychology of God. The prefix “Meta” means “beyond”
while “physics” is the scientific study of the inherent nature of matter.
However, everything is an expression of matter. Therefore there is nothing that
exists “beyond” matter. What we call energy (spirit) is actually a more subtle
form of matter.
The students of Aristotle,
as well as other Greeks—who promoted the use of the
word “metaphysics” in the fourth century B.C.E.—had no knowledge of quantum
physics, which explains why the Greek “scientist” Democritus said that the atom
is a particle that cannot be broken down into simpler forms. After Western man
finally learned about nuclear physics—and thereby became more aware of the
existence of subatomic particles in the 20th century—he finally
realized the absurdity in Democritus’ statement.
Aristotle
used to say that the universe was literally comprised of four elements—earth,
air, water and fire. However, students of modern science know that there are at
least 118 elements on planet Earth alone. The fact of the matter is that what
we call physical reality has multiple layers of expression. This means that
everything is physical, expressing itself within varying degrees of density.
When
many of us use the word “metaphysics” we are actually trying to find a word for
the psychology behind the engineering of our present reality. Since the word
“Meta” may also mean “After,” in some contexts, it is said that one should
study METAphysics AFTER they study conventional physics. However conventional
physics, as it is taught today, is a failed attempt to take a holistic approach
to real physics, which has ALWAYS had a spiritual component when it was
properly understood. Nicola Tesla, Albert Einstein and Isaac Newtown give us just
a few examples of internationally renowned Western physicists with a strong
interest in, and appreciation for, spirituality.
It
is my opinion that if we are to use a word that more accurately
encapsulates the ideas that have been attributed to the school of thought conventionally
known as metaphysics, in a way that is accessible to an English speaking
person, then the word “Theo-psychology” would be a better fit. I say this
because what the person who calls themselves a metaphysician is essentially
teaching us is the psychology that drives and motivates the higher intelligence
that we call God.
An individual learns this psychology by
carefully observing nature in relation to themselves. This is why the simple adage
“Man know thyself” holds so much meaning for the adept. Theo-psychology is often defined as “the psychology of religion,” but
it is actually the psychology of God, because the prefix “Theo” doesn’t mean
“religion,” it means “God.” However, in my continuous and ongoing effort to divorce myself from Greek
terms and concepts, I will use the term “Supreme Psychology,” as a label for
the Psychology of God. Eventually, I will create my own words and terms.
Traditional Pharmacologist
One day
this past winter I walked by a large, but seemingly lifeless tree in Manhattan.
It was devoid of any signs of vitality. If the tree were a person, I would say
that it was a broken and defeated man or woman without an ounce of hope left in
it. Now, it’s a new season, and the weather is a lot warmer. A few days ago I
saw the same tree and it was bursting with green foliage. Birds were perched on
its branches as leaves blew in the Spring breeze that literally seemed to rejoice
in the tree’s annual rebirth. You and I are just like this tree in the sense
that we internalize and process light frequencies similar to how plants do
through photosynthesis. Like trees, we do this with varying levels of intensity
over the course of the calendar year.
If trees
go through a continuous cycle of death and rebirth, then it would be fairly
reasonable to conclude that man goes through the same cycle, both as an
individual and as part of a larger race of people. When you see someone who is
down on their luck, or when you see a race of people who are oppressed at every
turn, you may actually be looking at an individual or group in the harsh winter
season of their existence. Fortunately, the more brutal a winter is, the more
beautiful the subsequent Spring and Summer will appear.
However,
one would have to adopt the mindset of a supreme psychologist to even recognize
the correlation between the life of a man and the life of a tree. Although I
could be wrong, I do not see where Aristotle—whose work bears the earliest
known reference to metaphysics—ever displayed a formal comprehension of the Supreme
Psychology that I have just given you an example of. His philosophical
observations are extremely abstract, almost to the point of being petty and irrelevant.
The word
“Magic” comes from the Greek word “Magike.” However, among the ancient Greeks
“Magike,” was the work of a “Magus,” but a magus was simply someone who had
extraordinary talent and knowledge of their craft. A holistic biologist, chemist, or physicist from
ancient Nubia who was able to apply their knowledge in a practical way would
have been called a “magician,” by the ancient Greeks.
However,
the fact of the matter, is that these Africans were really just men and women
who had an extraordinarily holistic understanding of art, science, and
psychology. You can confirm the fact
that the Greeks needlessly mystified African art and science for yourself just
by studying the etymology of certain Greek words that have made their way into the
English lexicon.
For
example the ancient Greek word for witchcraft and sorcery was “Pharmakeia.”
From the word “Pharmakeia,” you get the English word “Pharmacology.” A person
who practices pharmacology is called a pharmacist, but a pharmacist is a
chemist and a chemist is a scientist. Can you now see how Black science was
mystified by ancient Europeans who did not understand it, and therefore called
it witchcraft, sorcery, and “Magic”?
Chemistry, or Kem Ast Re, is the arcane
science that allows the Black (Kem) man to enthrone himself as the caretaker of
nature (Ast/Auset) which is a synthesis of all of the elements in the periodic
table. However, these elements that make up the periodic table are themselves
alternate expressions of the hydrogen atom (Atum Re). All natural elements are
variations on the hydrogen atom which is also known as Ra, or Re.
The Mother of Science
Within its most esoteric context,
science is a systematic study of the feminine principle. The world’s earliest
scientists were Black women who were trying to understand the fundamental
aspect of themselves. They gave this knowledge to Black men who comprised the
ORIGINAL Illuminati. The Illuminati
traveled the globe building civilizations that were reflections of this
knowledge. The entire world is indebted to this ancient stellar society with secrets.
When we
call the wise men and women of ancient Africa, Sumer, Harrapa and the Americas
“magicians,” we are looking at ancient Black artists, psychologists, and
scientists through the eyes of Greeks who were, for the most part, ignorant of
these disciplines and therefore mystified them as a result of their own
ignorance. The Greek philosopher, Socrates, was a progressive thinker who was put
to death by his own people for talking about African science which was completely
alien to the whites of the Mediterranean.
Even
now, when European authors write about what they call “ceremonial magic” you
will notice that they often go out of their way to overly mystify ancient
rituals, as if the people who originally introduced them were not engaged in
activities that could be rationally explained. Some say that magic is COMPLETELY
beyond the understanding of the rational mind. That's not exactly true.
Ancient Illuminati Soul Scientist
It has
to make logical sense in order for it to be practical and effective in the real
world that we live in. I guarantee you that if you study any “magical” ritual THAT
ACTUALLY WORKS you will find that there is something about it that is
scientific and makes logical sense. The problem is that the Stellar Men and
Women who introduced them are not given the credit that they deserve for being
great scientists.
In their
short-sightedness, which is often motivated by a lust for money, some teachers
fail to realize that your personal empowerment is their own immortality. A man
who constructs palaces for himself in the hearts and minds of people will live
forever. People will tell their children about his altruism and good deeds, and
when those children become adults, they will continue the cycle of reverence with
their own children.
Gods and
goddesses are not born. They are created by people who pass down stories of
great men and women over the course of generations. You, the reader, can become
a god and or a goddess if you do your best with the cards that you’re dealt in
life by having integrity and exercising patience.
If you insist on using the term “magic,”—even
if it is only for creative/aesthetic purposes—it would be far more intelligent
to demonstrate to your students that some of the simple things that they take
for granted in their everyday lives are magical rituals when they are examined
within the context of how magic is conventionally defined today.
When
someone says to you “I practice magic,” what they are essentially saying is
that they engage in a set of rituals specifically designed to facilitate the
transformation of their consciousness for the fulfillment of a desired goal.
The permanence of that transformation is what separates “high magic” from “low
magic,” but what I cannot stress to you enough is that there is nothing magical
that exists outside of the periphery of art, science, and psychology. This is
because the only real magic that has ever existed in the history of planet
Earth is the practical application of art, science, and psychology.

Science
encompasses all three of these disciplines, which is why Black people who have
a deep interest in the occult should look at what their ancestors practiced as a
science, instead of looking at it as magic. If they look at it as science they
will invest more time and energy into the serious study and practice of modern science,
which is the only thing that will imbue them with the occult power and higher
intelligence that they would like to reclaim from the ancient tombs of dead
masters.
In books
on magic that I’ve read, I’ve seen occultists write about “spiritual baths,” which
is an oxymoron when you think about it, because when isn’t a bath a spiritual
experience? My initial answer to this question would be when you’re bathing in
your own blood after having a few rounds of bullets pumped into your body.
Nevertheless, that might even be a spiritual experience if it changes your
perspective on life and you live to reflect on it. This reflection inevitably
brings about an understanding. That’s right, an understanding, not an “overstanding.”
The word “Overstand” is
a cute innovation within the English language. However, it is better to
“Understand” something than it is to Overstand it. When you OVERstand a thing
you are just dealing with its top layer, its shallow outer surface. To
Understand it is to touch its vital essence, its root, which extends deep
underground. The underground is right where I stand as I perform this ancient rite
I wRITE.
The underground is also
the underworld, which is the royal abode of Ausar, who is the personification
of kingly wisdom and supreme masculine intelligence. Therefore to “Understand”
is to figuratively STAND in truth with Ausar in the UNDERworld, which is really
your own inner world. Do you
understand what I am trying to say to you?
