Philosophy, Theory, Organized Practice


Philosophy is summarized theory, theory is summarized practice.  All scientific methods of research are essentially practical abstractions, summed up into a means of achieving a scientifically verifiable theory. 


Theory is tested, verified, systematized, and summarized practice, whatever its form or content.  A methodology is a system of principles and systematic means of organizing and structuring theoretical and philosophical inquiry.  Research designs are a systematic approach to studying phenomena and processes of events and then interpret them within the framework of humanity, notwithstanding class, sex, and geo-cultural schisms within the global African community. Essentially, philosophy is summarized theory. Method is the step-by-step, systematic procedures of arriving at that theory.  If the theory is scientifically substantiated, the method has to be scientifically valid, reliable, and repeatable.  The primary process-oriented method of the ancient world was to see research problems as processes that were unfolding in time and space. Applied philosophy examines thought in algorithmic categories embodied in rules and operations of logical cognition correlating ontology, epistemology and laws of formal logic. 


At the heart of formal logic is matter, space, time, motion, and the concept of spirit.  Matter is not an arbitrary concoction of disorderly forms but exists as numerous complex systemic formations, strictly regulated by the rules of motion in the space-time-quality continuum with each system having separate periods of formation, growth, stability, dwindling and death.  Kmt called matter nun and nature and life forces were called neters.  The struggle, unity, identity, process of birth development, death and rebirth was called ka.  Ancient African Kmt fully understood the relationship between thought and matter, and spirit and organic life.  The names changed but the general theory of life's developmental process was daily used in Kmt over 6600 years ago.


Today scientists argue that our world has evolved in a cascade fashion which assume previous stages with the lowest known level being a vacuum at zero vibration, populated only by fleeting appearances of particle-antiparticle pairs, next quarks and the gluons that hold them together, then the leptons - a separate sublevel of the systemic formation of matter as electrons and photons seen as free entities, next baryons functioning as Pi-, Mu- and K-, then the elementary particles, protons and neutrons, then the hundred or more elements constitute systemic formations that exist as atoms 10-8 cm across with a nucleus occupying the 10-13 cm at the centre. The nuclear species are held together by a balance of attractive and repulsive forces. Electrons were thought to orbit the nucleus in what was a powerful model of this sub-microscopic world, but they are now considered to be stationary waves occupying an uncertain trajectory. Formed in expanding space, they became confined in solar systems, and evolution had to be satisfied by motion in quality, forming the simple molecules, such as H2.


The rest of the evolutionary processes, they say, were also confined in space, so the constant rate of evolution could only be satisfied by changes in quality. This explains the concept of entropy, the various phases of matter functioning, and the formation of complex molecules functioning as enzymes, chlorophyll and haemoglobin. Matter functioning at the next level formed a world suitable for life by altering the Earth's crust and atmosphere. Life appears in matter functioning as the first coacervatical drops of amino acids and proteins, and eventually the magical RNA and DNA. Most life functions at human is the system functioning as with bodily evolution at an end, human has evolved through the different communities in which he has lived: primordial communities, slave-holding states, feudal states, the capitalist period and the modern age of socialism, and maatism.


There is reflection in inanimate/inorganic nature, which takes the form of mechanical reflection, for example, teeth prints on a sandwich; physical reflection, which takes the form of reflection of objects in a window or in a mirror; and chemical reflection, which takes the form of molecular reactions of association and disassociation. 


There is reflection in animate/organic nature, which is biological: such as , irritability, for example, plants and trees being drawn toward the photosynthesizing rays of the sun; in humans there are conditioned and unconditioned reflexes and instincts, for example, hunger for food, reflexive self defense and care of offspring, sex drive, building and other instincts and reflexes which ensure the survival of the species. 


There is human organism's phenotypic adaptation resulting in phenotypic variations in hair, skin color, eye color, and morphology reflective of climate and geographical terrain.  There is cultural adaptation indirectly reflective of environment, climate, terrain and geography in the types and forms of foods, clothing, shelter, health care, religion, language, names, hair styles, architecture, recreation, family structures, military strategies, transportation, etc., that various societies develop over time. 


In short, all matter/antimatter has the characteristic of reflection (in some mediated form); it encompasses the infinite diversity of objective reality, which is all around us, and is reflected by human sense organs, imprinted, copied, stored, transformed into sense data, analyzed, synthesized and translated into forms of thought. 


Replicating the human thought process even its skeletal form is a complex task.  Yet, the nomenclature already used in sophisticated arguments concerning distinctions, paradoxes and thought parameters reflective of the recursive nature of human cognition is fairly well known (but perhaps not fully understood) in the social sciences: 


  • 1. Anthropology studies the process of development of human life, in all of its stages and phases. Archeology studies the hardware and software of organic life's carbon expression on Earth, including the tools and artifacts of human existence and social development.
  • 2. Psychology studies human thought as a process of cognition evolving out of acquired or inherited environmental and biological variables impacting personality, emotions, and intelligence reflected in attitudes and behaviors.
  • 3. Aesthetics examines the creative product of thought for the cultural and sensuous value of its perceptual and artistic form and content.
  • 4. Psychopathology examines human cognition thru the prism of mental disorder and retardation.
  • 5. Linguistics measures and describes the interconnection between language, conceptual constructs, and the process of creative thought through the medium of symbols.
  • 6. Sociology is the science of society, the understanding of social formations and the human interactions within each society.
  • 7. Economics is the study of human production, distribution, exchange, consumption and reproduction within a specific society, ruled by a specific class, race, culture, and gender.
  • 8. Political economy is the study of class coexistence, antagonism, compromise, and ultimately conflict and exchange of class rule. A class sets up a state to manage its societal rule complete with constitution, government, courts, military forces, prisons, schools, and even religion. A class decides on who gets what, how much, when, and of what quality.
  • 9. Sociology of knowledge can trace the intricate relationships of empirical and theoretical, symbolic and interactional, subjective and objective, and the social and psychological elements of thought. It can become a play with words, if the knowledge analyzed is not applied knowledge.
  • 10. Criminology studies human cognition in conjunction with lawbreaking by investigating criminal motive as a basis establishing variable patterns and socio-psychological predictors. In any class/race based society this social science field is used to justify indiscriminate and accelerated incarceration of poor/working class people who's population is not of the skin color of the ruling class.
  • 11. History is the science of human documented life and living in oral, written, and artifactual form. It documents life, living, pictures, drawings, art, technology, science, religion, culture, civilization, etc. In a class/race based society it is merely an exercise in "feel-goodism" for a "lie agreed upon," researched and sanction by the paid representatives of the ruling race, class, sex/gender, and culture.
  • 12. Biology examines the anatomical evolutionary processes of organic matter which have increased the capacities for thought in life forms. It also follows the evolution of organic life forms, principally in the animal kingdom.

Side Tracked


Early African Kmt left many lessons in the area of cosmology and philosophy.  Since so much scientific know how was lost with the collapse of Africa's most advanced civilizations many well intending Africans today just do not know how natural processes came to be. 

Factual evidence of how to make an airplane is collected, organized, procedurally cataloged, serialized and classified for all airplane builders to follow.  There is no guesswork to the complex problems of construction engineering.  Applied to African philosophy, many thinkers have abandoned the evidence and have instead decided to wing-it.  When in doubt, they seek mystical ideas as opposed to scientifically tested facts established as theory summarizing applied actual processes in nature and in life.  They make up enslaver god/allah stories as filler to the many areas of life they do not understand.  Then the worst of them call this eclectic mess of daydreaming useless fantasy African-centered.  In the process, the best of applied Africanist progressive thought gets pulled down to this useless level where nothing is studied properly---just a whole lot of meaningless chatter.


Traditionally, in the resurrection of modern African-centered thought scientific assessment of reality are dominated by mystical incantations of obsolete speculative christian-islamic dogma who's scope rarely leaves the idealistic discussion of abstract spirit, religion, white critiques of history and god-allah.  They have no answers, so they make up ideas and impose them on reality as opposed to studying reality, summing it up, and then establishing a scientific logic from historical fact.  They purport to create ideas from the sky in terms of a logical and timeless order of necessity, not in terms of the succession of material , objective and yet temporal reality.  Their material world of matter, space and time have all been devolved/regressed/retarded into appearance and ideal concepts as opposed to real developing actual processes. 


Instead of showing an incompatibility between any revolutionary ethics and an superstition/mysticism which sanctified the existing order with ambiguous formulae about the identify of the real and the rational, they cowardly cling to hopes that a god-allah figure conjured up by their very brute enslavers hold the key to their understanding.  Thus reality becomes a crapshoot, guesswork after the fact, claims of gods' will type mess.  This requires no work, no study, no thought---just lazy minds from lazy bodies which go through life making up things and fabricating mysterious ghostly conjugation of fantasies.  They call this their African way; they should just say that this is their own individualist way. 


Instead of starting with the familiar and working out the logical events as they unfold in the history of ordinary experience, they deduce the character of ordinary experience from pie in the sky speculation.  What should be the point of departure becomes a mystical/vague, unprovable, useless result and what should be a rational result becomes a mystical point of departure.  They do not understand that the existence of a thing is as intelligible as it is discovered to be. 


One should never attempt to deduce the historical succession of things in time from he immanent development of ideas out of time.  From existence we get to logic and not necessarily the other way around.  Thought can discover logical relationships in matter only because the objects of thought possess them in the first place.  Essentially ideas and categories are not more eternal than the relations which they express.  They are historical and transitory events produced by things happening before them.  Practice is the life of theory; theory is the guide to practice.  Activity is an integral part of thinking. 


A social theory is to be judged by what it effects, directly and indirectly.  The purpose of social theory is to provide that knowledge of social tendencies which will most effectively liberate revolutionary action.  Philosophy is not retrospective insight into the past and present; it is prospective anticipation of the future based on a theoretical logical summation of the past and present and improve the future. It explains why the present is what it is based on the past in order to improve it.  It liberates.


Since every philosophy has its own material foundation in history, no matter how metaphysical the disguise in which they often masquerade, a truly liberating criticism must involve changing the material conditions which are at their basis.  The new philosophy of Africans will succeed not merely because it represents objective reality , is culturally uplifting, is centered in historical pre-invasion African values, but because it serves the needs of the African race and the social conditions which produce those needs.   Theory becomes realized in a people only in so far as it is the realization of its needs. 


In any society in which race, sex-gender, class and generation divisions give rise to conflicting needs, values, cultural forms and ideas, each race, sex-gender, class, and generation sets itself up as a representative of the common interests of the entire society.  Each race, sex-gender, class, generation develops a world view, and ideology which it holds to be universally true and around which it seeks to impose as the view of the entire society. The group with the force, the military, political, psychological, and intellectual might---rules.  The powerless are ruled; the powerful rule.  Except for power, all is but fantasy.  Those who have power determine the gradual flow of history; does who do not have power follow the flow of history, making up what happened after the fact and never understand what caused it.  In this way the order of historical events is more than a confused record of chance occurrences.  Somebody, using something, to change some reality is in charge---and knows it.  The populations not in charge do not yet understand how they are being ruled.  They attribute their situation to chance, bad luck, devils and gods.  They wait on enslaver saviors, salvation, miracles and other things that do not happen.  They know better but are not willing to take charge of their lives, fear free life and living.  At some point this will change.  Then their own clarity will dictate a new worldview.


  • 1. History, therefore is the record of the rise, fall, and rebirth of races, classes, sexes, and generations. All of this has centered around the necessities of life and the power which those possession allowed. Humans are continually improving the quality of the tools they use in earning their living. The possession of the new productive forces and the invention of the new methods give a natural advantage over those who still live by the old.
  • 2. The race, class, sex, or generation which has seized control of the new forces of production has power, economic power, a power, however, which is hampered by the cultural, traditional, political, and legal property relations which express the earlier forms of material production.
  • 3. Over millions of years, the unity and struggle of atoms under conditions of heat and pressure began to give rise to simple proteins, DNA and RNA molecules as vehicles of heredity, complexes of protein molecules, single cells, multiple cells, tissue-based complex organisms, organs, functional systems (neural, blood circulation, digestive, gas exchange, etc.), the organism as a whole, families of organisms, colonies, and populations; the formation of multicellular organisms that possessed increasingly complex inherent capacities to adapt to changing earthly conditions; the transition to invertebrates, vertebrates, reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and primates; and then the transition to human life over 6.6 million years ago, again in Africa, this time on the equator.
  • 4. The geophysical and biological record reveals what is coming to being and what is dying, serving as a reminder that the new sweeps away all that was believed forever. Nothing is permanent, for everything is a house of cards...one cosmic gust away from eternal oblivion. To think otherwise is to dismiss the whole of history and raise fairy-tales, myths, superstitions, religions, and sophistry to the level of fact. But fiction is never fact. The facts are:

  1. The earth existed in such a state that no human life could have existed;
  2. In a process lasting millions of years, single-cell organisms developed into more complex ones;
  3. Step-by-step increasingly complex life would begin to form from complex organic compounds and finally to complex organic life;
  4. Simple cells began to synthesize, giving birth to more complex cells (this is where the foundation for different species would be laid)
  5. Everything has a unique time span;
  6. Matter is in constant motion;
  7. At an accelerated rate the development of life moved from primitive pre-cellular form(s) to cellular organization to multiple cellular organisms; from mammals to primates which ultimately laid the foundation for Homo Sapien Sapien;
  8. The complete series of fossils specimens which document the five stages of hominid formation were found exclusively in Africa-australopithecines, homo habilis, homo erectus, homo sapien Neanderthal, and homo sapien sapien
  9. Homo sapien sapien, the only existing hominid specimen, migrated from Africa and went on to populate the world;
  10. From fossil evidence a particular specimen develop over a long period of time then is confronted with a crisis, and in a relatively short time that species passes away and adapts to the environment by replication itself
  11. "...one fragment lays foundation for the next."

Ancient African Kmt developed all of these areas and more.  In fact, matter and spirit were not separated by our ancients.


KMT KA SCIENCE AND COSMOLOGY


Kmt understood something fundamental about life and living: the new develops in the womb of the old, reaches a point of conception, fights a life and death struggle for its existence, and in the birth throes of complementary battle comes into being as a new formation.  The adaptable element of it is preserved in the new process.  This is why education, quaility know-how, and technical expertise is so important.  Africans must regain control of the education of their children. 


As the new develops within the old, there is a point where one passes into the other.  The old, with its complementary twin opposites, yields to a new higher or lower process with its complementary twin opposites which pass from insignificant and imperceptible quantitative changes to open, fundamental quantitative changes, to qualitative changes which leap rapidly and abrupt from one state to another occurring as a natural result of an accumulation of imperceptible and gradual quantitative changes after a period of regression before the leap forward.  The exposition of such a reality, both into movement and its forms, presents enormous problems.


A movement is best captured by a movie, but an analysis of a form requires detailed examination of a snapshot.  How would you portray a snapshot in movement?  This is Ka. We must combine a snapshot with a motion picture, from start to finish; from birth, death, rebirth without detriment to either shapshot or motion picture.  We are studying a trans-historical motion picture as opposed to still photography.  Grasp a whole in motion, like a movie as opposed to still photography, then uncover the contradictions that constitute the moving principle of its development. "A" is equal to "A" signifies that a thing is equal to itself if it does not change, that is, if it does not exist.

Ka is concerned with grasping a whole in motion, in time and space, with mass and uncovering the fundamental internal contradictions that constitute the moving principle of its development from birth-death-rebirth.


The Kmtians used the term "Ka" to designate the soul which remains in the tomb; i.e. the "double".  It is represented by a glyph of two upraised arms in a gesture of calling, or offering a manifestation of vital energy:

  • § ka subsistence
  • § ka of kaw (creative power of food)
  • § ka penetration
  • § ka venerability
  • § ka force
  • § ka splendour
  • § ka energy
  • § ka nutrition
  • § ka life develops, causes to thrive, perseverve, pulse,
  • § ka consideration
  • § ka vitality
  • § ka worth
  • § ka radiance
  • § ka illumination

These fourteen epithets designate the fundamental qualities attached to the notion of the ka.  The first four pertain to the vitalizing powers of food, enabling the development, growth and subsistence of physical life.  The following eight express the moral qualities and social condition of the being, implying submission to a discipline, but also an appetite or thirst for perfection which can act as a stimulus, giving an immediate goal to human life.  The highest two, magic (mastery) and illumination, probably represent the ultimate spiritual call of the being, realizable only through the force and worth of each person's character, giving him splendour and radiance while still in life.


As such categories must be derived, fashioned and fitted for each specific concrete aspect of the subject-matter. Contradictions are first in the real process; they are the basis of concepts and categories. The interconnectedness, unity and struggle drive change, development, transformation and renewal within actual time dimensions


Everything exists within time and is an unbroken process of coming to be, being, been, becoming. Time is the fundamental element of existence. Essentially, "A=A" can only equal "A=A" if a thing is equal to itself because it does not change, i.e., if it does not exist.


The problem of grasping a thing is essentially the problem of grasping that it is in motion. If a society as a whole is to be grasped in motion, in process, becoming, it must be comprehended thoroughly, its dynamic of production, who owns it, who's owned, the dynamics of its direct production process


Grasp that the thing is in motion, then grasp the motion itself, its direction, means of energy, what drives it, the driving force of it, its internal impetus, its energy, has its source in the underlying unity and struggle of opposites-contradictions


This development proceeds as determined by the form of movement characteristic of that quality and continues until the limit within that type is reached.  A corresponding measure is reached---a fixed limit within which alone the quality can remain indifferent to the quantity. The point at which magnitude ceases to be indifferent is dependent upon the internal connection of quantitative and qualitative changes.  At a certain level, this indispensable condition in its unity and struggle of contradictory opposites creates the means which will effect its own destruction.

These forces are a reflection of their position in the unity; with in the category; within the womb where the two contradictory opposite have interpenetrated the other there exist a point where they prove incompatible with their husk, a  melting point, boiling point, atomic weight, valiancy point, breakpoint.  Quality is finite.  Every qualitative definitiveness has an internal final limit that belongs to it and the fullest development of quality is at the same time the revelation of its limits. 


When a quality has reached its internal limits, its fundamental properties change into their opposites, then the features of a period of transition take a definite shape revealing themselves as polar opposites in a direct antagonistic contradiction bent on resolution.  That resolution can be progressive (higher, ascending) or regressive (retrogressive, lower, descending).  It is therefore necessary to determine final limits, that highest stage of development at which a quality goes over into another quality - into its opposite. All positions beget their opposition, grow out of a predecessor, and appear as a negation, then negates itself in turn by the force of the development of its own internal contradictions.  The internal contradictions are the basis of this spiraling genesis.


Each phase in the development of the forms of the quality, process, phenomenon, thing, object, resolves the determined form of the contradiction that belongs to the previous stage of development. The new forms of existence of a quality grow out of the decomposition of the old basis of existence of the quality with each phase quantitatively refining the quality and preparing it for a leap. Every phase, by over coming the specific form of the contradiction of its predecessor, by negating it, brings forth the form of contradiction that belongs to it and by this mans prepares its own negation.


There arise a contradiction between the new and old, arising and dying; the new grows strong, overpowers the old, leads to forward movement.  The old is abolished after it has already produced the conditions for the transition to the new, and in which all the positive achievement belonging to the old stage is carried forward into the new.  The new stage comes into being from the working out of the contradiction and struggle inherent in the old, containing within itself the germ of a new contradiction---it comes into being containing something of the past from which it springs and something of the future to which it leads.


EDUCATION


Essentially, Kmt's system of education was holistic. A child is first recognized to have latent capacities for training in the Sacred College of Initiates, seeks education, is trained in a normal school experiences leading into the "lesser unknowns"; response to intimations of a higher teaching bring her/him to the doors of the "greater unknowns," there the embodiment of knowledge about life, the universe and woman or woman or man's self results in wisdom and understanding occurs, she/he is. is tested all along the line to ensure that she/he may be entrusted with knowledge about natural forces---that she/he will not use the information gained for selfish purposes -- culminating in the recognition that: altruism is the mark of a superior being.


In the course of this, the child has learned that life is a manifestation of the divine presence, obscured for woman or woman or man only by her/her/his own self-centered pursuits. As he gains in knowledge, he is told that ambition does to intuition what a weevil does in a granary, and that the Kmtian sages have seen the phenomenal world as stages of consciousness in a process of becoming. The child learns at last that the aim of her/her/his training was self-knowledge. All is in yourself. Know your inmost self and look for what corresponds with it in nature." Further, that the path of progress through temple-training revolves also around the meaning of 'temple,' which to the ancient Kmtian embodied the whole of science, knowledge and wisdom. The living temple is woman or woman or man, himself a replica of the macrocosmic principles and functions, the "Neters." Only when one has felt one has achieved this does one embark on an effort to share one's understanding of the overall method used in the Kmtian Mysteries to train the character of the neophytes.


There is a glyph of Asr/Ast as the god at the top of a series of steps; and a text that says: "it is her/his own ladder that a woman or woman or man must climb" -- he must ascend her/her/his own nature. Altruism is indeed the mark of the superior being, who renounces personal salvation in order to shed light upon all, remaining with mankind until that day when everyone will have grown to be a transparent embodiment of her/her/his own inner Asr/Ast. There is a purpose in every important act of Nature, whose acts are all cyclic and periodical.


To this is added a complete architectural grammar, represented by the shape of the stone blocks: their joints, overlappings, and "transparencies" and "transpositions" in the walls comprise a subtle grammar in which the finish of a carving or its rough aspect, the absence of essential parts--such as the eye or the navel--the reversal of right and left, and so forth, play the role of accents, declensions, conjugations, and conjunctions.

All real knowledge is a kind of remembering--a bringing back together what had been separated, a reparation of the primordial scission. The Kmtians knew much else: the precession of the equinoxes, the circumference of the globe, and the secrets of pi. Their forgotten mathematical wisdom showed that Kmtian civilization must be far older than we suspect--the clear evidence of water erosion on the Sphinx also suggests that.

But more important than any of those conclusions, is the fact that Kmtians had a radically different consciousness from ours. They viewed the world symbolically, seeing in nature a "writing" conveying truths about the forces behind creation-"the Neters," as Kmtian gods are called. At the center of this vision was Conscious Human being, the King. For the ancient Kmtians, Conscious Human being was the crown and aim of the universe, perception nature-centered thinkers would dispute. But Conscious Human being was not "human being as we know him." He was the individual in whom the "intelligence of the heart" has awakened, one who has had the experience of "functional consciousness. Luxury was a kind of living organism, a colossal compendium of truth, whose every detail, from its total design down to its very materials, voiced one central revelation: that Conscious Human being was the goal of cosmic evolution.


The first process of Maat in education was that man must learn how to listen first. They called it "OMO". And when you do speak, your voice must be "just". Which they called, speak with (MA-ERU).

Hieroglyphs, allegory, symbol and words sidestep cerebral intelligence, which thinks by comparison. But the method of our higher intelligence is intuition and a higher teaching must appeal to and activate it. This is foreign to us, yet vital and alive in a way cerebral intelligence cannot appreciate.

The capacity to explore nature and oneself according to its subtle principles of action leads to super science and super people. These individuals can, and did, establish a social order that benefits all who function within it, from the point of view of each individual's psychological evolution.


Tides-the secrets of the crafts as well as the highest sciences were taught and applied by men who were part of the Temple. The KMTian Temple as a fountain of Wisdom; the other fact is the continuity of the body of architecture that has been left in evidence.


When we read how the 'divine physi­cians' and architects, like Imhotep and Amenhotep, son of Hapu , describe their material works at the same time as their mystical role, we are obliged to conclude that 'The Temple' trained sages, scholars, and craftsmen who were 'initiates' ---the application of their science was considered by these men as a veritable priesthood-which might well have been the case to judge by the records.


SCIENCE, AND ENGINEERING AND MORALITY


Fertilization, gestation, birth, growth, maturity, senescence, death, rebirth, and resurrection are the principles of the organic world. Polarity, relationship, substantiality, potentiality, time-and-space, and process are among the principles of the cosmological world. These, given appropriate names and forms were the "gods" of Kmt. Each was associated with its own number symbolism, which in turn commanded the geometry of the temples erected to commemorate that "god" and to evoke in the eye and heart and intellect of the beholder communion with that principle or set of principles.


The geometry flows from the measurements, and the interpretation in all its manifold aspects (mathematics, astronomy, astrology, symbolism, cosmology, mythology, art, architecture, and even medicine) flows from the geometry.


Kmtian perception, time, space, direction all have moral connotations. Time is not simply a clicking of a digital clock, time is measured by the flow of moral festivals, and time within the day is correlated to stories about the gods. Every moment hence is sacred and full of spiritual intent. The Temple of Luxor was based on the human body and that its dimensions reflected sacred proportions yet what does it mean? What does it matter that a temple is like a human body. The significance can only be understood when we consider the experience of the average Kmtian within a traditional culture based on an appreciation of the unity between the individual, the state and the divine.


As a child the Kmtian approaches the temple, S/he is not isolated from it. S/he approaches it at a certain time, correlated to a moral concept, from a direction intent with meaning. One is not isolated from the architecture, it is alive. Its form, shape and dimension all communicate to her/him. One knows they have the same proportions as her/his body and hence s/he is part of the architecture, s/he is connected to the temple and it to her/him. Further to this, s/he knows it has been placed in a "sacred location" and hence is connected to her/his mother land and to her/his people. So there is no division, there is a harmonic and unity between the individual, time, space, direction, architecture, land and people.


The Temples are encoded with practical, physical and spiritual lessons.. The Universe is a projection of human consciousness. Consciousness is volume. The architecture in the Temples expresses volume in form. Man interprets conscious gestation as volume and form and depicts various stages of gestation as particular proportions contained within a sphere. Proportionality creating form and rhythms in our daily life are functions known as neters in Kmtian language. An example of natural form and rhythm is the cycle of our hours based upon days, upon the revolution of the Earth, upon the lunar, around the equinoxes, around the solar calendar and so on. Neters have different implied meanings terms pertaining to their functions, mathematical equations and geometric laws. The Peraas appointed distinct symbols and developed many items of measure befitting these neters, some of which are known as fathoms, cubits and canons.


Architects enveloped the Temples with such engineering and design that when the entire complex or even just fragments of itself was viewed as a model, monumental points such as foundations, joints, bas-reliefs, transparencies, murals and hieroglyphics contained the philosophy and teachings of the Ancient Peraas. Kmt had configured the vital moment of Genesis in mathematical terms and was able to express this creation by way of geometry propagating into greater proportions. They had realized the square roots of 2, 3, and 5, and the perpetual golden mean ratio "phi" associated with pentagonal and hexagonal geometry expressed in the physical development of organic creatures in relationship to the growth and size of their different body parts. The Temple of Luxor is architecturally rendered to exhibit within its design the same proportions as the proportions of Man, thus also exhibiting the mathematical and geometrical structure of the Cosmos and its locale within human consciousness.


Maat Consciousness not only recognized Man as the center of the Universe but was also able to formally equate it as well. Music to the ears engages the Universe. This Maat conception divides vibrations into proportioned intervals known as tones. These tones coagulate and multiply into spherical volume resulting in resonant harmonics and unity of chords creating form, beauty and consciousness. The inner ear was therefore recognized as one of the main keys utilized to enter the gates of wisdom and knowledge. This natural form of creation is everywhere at all moments and has self-cognition. This innate knowledge is carried throughout all vibrations and travels everywhere through multiple harmonic passages creating, in effect, geometric structure and form. Therefore, in simple terms, Cosmic Man's interpretation of consciousness is vibrational volume expanding from the center of a sphere proportioned harmonically and containing innate knowledge.


Kmt, relating consciousness to volume and volume as spheres, and perceiving that our entire Universe functions under these principles, deduced that our solar system consisted of consistent terms of proportionality, and geometric structure. Their knowledge of the gearing system of our Universe was expressed through their Temples and measuring devices. The extent of accuracy associated with astronomical events and celestial time is uncanny. The geodetic Temples are also "consciously" oriented. Different aspects of the Maat philosophy were encoded throughout their entire complexes-absolutely incredible. And here is this man in recent modern times, to come around and measure everything and read the hieroglyphics and figure out what they were communicating. We can now further understand the concepts and sciences of this historical advanced civilization.


For example, the Scarab is a beetle who is self-reproducing and "rolls" its home for a nest to re-create in. This union of singular duality expresses creation as a third sector for trinity. This in symbolique is consciousness. The human skull contains many bones that are bound together by sutural membranes. The top cross-section of the skull, viewed from the top, looks curiously suggestive of the back mantle of the Scarab beetle. This uppermost part of the skull, the crown, in both its physical characteristics and in its symbolic form pertains to consciousness.


The Ancient Kmtians understood the functions of the human brain and depicted this in their choice of the Scarab insect as a symbol for representing a specific function, or neter, and their specific form of architecture. In architectural proportion, various rooms in the temples have specific monumental points referring to different functions, which have been located at precise points in the human body as well as the skull.


This greater vision was not only found within the Kmtian civilization, while it certainly was its greatest expression. The traditional worldview underlied much of modern thought, though its unity was not expressed as clearly as it was in Kmt. Since the reference point for modern woman or woman or man is the material world, he judges life by her/her/his perceptions and acts accordingly. His life is hence governed by physical desires and material requirements. This Great Chain is the traditional view of the universe which is not locked in a simple "nuts and bolts" view, but which encompasses the great span of existence from the very heights of spirit to the depths of the infernal realms. The Great Chain of Being while expressed in many cultures is not doctrinally specific, it can be found in Kmt cosmology,


The Harmonic of Ancient Kmt its sacred mathematics, the blazing power of language and the divine proportions of architecture reflect a worldview where all was sacred and from the laborer to the Great Leader or king, all partook of the essence of the organic whole. It is only today with the advent of so-called individual freedom, the scientific method and woman or woman or man-centered political systems that this union has been shattered and modern woman or woman or man is left alienated and lost in a hostile world. The principles upon which the Kmtian doctrine were founded are eternal.

This unified body of universal knowledge is encoded into the art and architecture of Kmt. The temples embody it by means of an architectural 'grammar' in which every element of the building contributes to the 'parts of speech' which enable the initiated to read the message of the stones. And this message is always an elaboration of the same theme - the universal cycle of spirit becoming matter and returning again to spirit, or as he put it, "the Becoming and the Return". Therefore nothing in Kmt is accidental or purely ornamental - every element from the type of building material used, the size of the blocks, the dimensions of the walls, number symbolism, the placement of hieroglyphs and symbols, the orientation of the site - all were consciously chosen to have a predetermined effect.


Kmtians were aware of, and consciously used, advanced mathematical concepts normally attributed to others. One of these was the Golden Section, a mathematical function which occurs throughout nature, for example in the ratios of a spiral galaxy or the orbits of the planets. When used in architecture, it allows the building to become an embodiment of these same universal principles, which were later used. All these elements work synergistically together to express the particular nature of the Neter (god, or more precisely, cosmic principle) which is incarnated in the temple. The universal laws expressed in the structure and artwork of the temples will resonate within us on a level which cannot be analyzed rationally, but which must be experienced with the whole of our being.


The temple, in every aspect, embodies the laws relating to the creation of mankind, its spiritual development and destiny. It is uniquely constructed on three separate axes relating to the sun, moon and Jupiter, the planet of growth. Kmt represents the highest accomplishments of the human spirit; its architecture is the embodiment in stone of the eternal concerns of human life.  The knowledge possessed by and, most significantly, the mode of thought engaged in by the highly elevated individuals who assembled, integrated and embedded that knowledge into hieroglyphs, as well as edifices of the Great Ones, sculptures and paintings was extraordinary.


The ancient Kmtians thoroughly understood human psychology, physiology, anatomy as well as the mechanisms of genesis, the nature of numbers, the use and nature of forces and the human experience following bodily death. The ancient Kmtians understood why this is so. The entirety of ancient Kmtian thought was ultimately directed to the possibility of and the means to accomplish a personal evolution. This was every human's purpose. The structures, edifices, paintings, sculptures and writings left in the temples and tombs were meant as examples of and teaching instruments for those who wished for the truth as then understood, to discover and put to use in their own lives. Everything is consciousness that consciousness evolves in humanity only through individual and group effort toward internal perfection.


The architecture of the ancient Kmtian temples is itself sacred, incorporating profound wisdom and embodying the laws of nature that we play with today but have not understood. Hidden in a strangely askew series of buildings or chambers at precisely the correct positions, as determined by overlays of the human skeleton, are brain and body outlines, the olfactory orifices, ear canals, eye openings, the twelve cranial nerves, brain structures, body organs and so forth. Yet this is only the beginning.


Clearly, the magnificent, enigmatic structures, the masterful sculptures, paintings, friezes, carvings, everything, could not have been accomplished with such elegance, grace, delicacy, intelligence and attention to detail if the artisans and laborers had not known and deeply felt that they themselves were individually benefited by their work in a way that exceeded mere care or satisfaction of the body. Here we may observe a true civilization, a real culture with an actual understanding in which wisdom established a constructive milieu for all citizens. Many may grimace at this, but, does anyone seriously believe that societies such as those of today's western world could possibly last 7000 years on the good earth we have poisoned?


The architecture of certain temples where initiations take place, with the 'blueprint' of cosmos and the nature of woman or woman or man are identical. Initiation means a new 'beginning,' an inner change -- not a ceremony that by itself confers a change, for such would be an empty ritual without the prior interior unfoldment of faculty and quality.


The foundations of the exact natural sciences were, therefore, first worked out by the Black Africans in African Kmt 2500 years before Greece, Rome, and later European and Arab metaphysicians invaded the North African region, seized the torch of scientific extradition along with millions of square miles of land, hundreds of millions of lives, and untold wealth in mineral resources, labor, and human intellectual thought matter stored up in ancient temples and libraries. The initial analysis of the universe into its individual parts; the embryonic mastery of astrophysics, physics, chemistry, biology, psychology, anthropology, archaeology, geology, mathematics; the grouping of the different natural processes and objects in definite classes; the study of the internal anatomy of organized bodies in their manifold forms; the classification of populations of the world as were known; animal husbandry, urban planning, civil engineering, astrology, advanced architecture, law, family organization, government, federal organization of states and cities (nomes), their stages of development---these are the fundamental conditions of the gigantic strides that ancient African Kmt had made before the destructive invasions tore the heart of African civilization, culture, and intellect from its initial centers along the Nile River.


African Kmt civilization was actually situated in an era period when science, philosophy, ethics, and religion were not yet departmentalized or separated from the mainstream of scientific thought. This form of thinking was not merely spiritual in nature---it was cosmological, it was all-embracing, it encompassed a system of thinking and living that not only embraced matters of faith, morality, honor, righteousness but also religion, philosophy, sociology, psychology, justice, and the natural sciences.

Science, therefore, was synthesized with spirituality, matter with antimatter, fact with myth. Historically, Western interpretations of KMTic thought has constantly bastardized any scientific theories or methods by labeling them as "religion" as opposed to philosophy, science, or theory.


They know that religion did not build the scientifically precise great building structures in African Kmt---structures that are unmatched in size and splendor in the world. Even with such advanced KMTic scientific documents as (1) the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus, (2) Ebers Medical Papyrus, (3) Papyrus of Moscow, (4) Medical Papyrus Adwin Smith, (5) Berlin Papyrus, and (6) Demotic Papyrus Carlseberg 1 to 9, Western science continues to propagandize the fabrication that African Kmt never had science or advanced philosophy, even though some of these indigenous African documents are over 2000 years older than documents of lesser scientific extradition in Greece or Rome. It is clear, however, that such a historical fraud could not continue if morally sound African scientists independently deciphered and published their own ancient indigenous documents. At present, only a minute few are capable of such necessary tasks.


The highest sciences as well as the highest moral standards were taught and applied in ancient African KMTic temples of higher learning. The continuity of the body of architecture, art, urban planned cities that has been left is evidence. The divine physi­cians, engineers, moral teachers, scribes, and architects, such as Imhotep, Djehuty, Maat, and Amenhotep, son of Hapu, describe their material works simultaneously with their moral works. One can logically conclude that respect for knowledge and spirituality, theory and practice, and matter and spirit was central to the training of students.


The largest ancient buildings in the world were designed, engineered, and constructed in African Kmt (Kmt)[1]---some of them over 40 stories high. Khufu pyramid is 146.0 meters high; Khafre pyramid is 143.5 meters high; Snefru pyramid is 105.0 meters high; MenKAure pyramid is 65.6 meters high, and Zoser pyramid is 63.0 meters high. There were over 80 large pyramid structure built in ancient African Kmt. Each was mathematically accurate down to a fraction of an inch. They still stand in testimony to practical geometry, algebra, architecture and the most efficient organization of hydraulic power and human labor power in ancient history.


These are the factors of universal Harmony. As geometry was the indi~ pensable basis of Pythagorean initiation, this science was likewise treated in African Kmt as the operation of the forces and forms produced by the movement of Nu,m,ber: "1 am one which becomes two, I am two which become four...


And this number, the manifest power of the highest Power 'whose name is hidden', is the unknowable Absolute shown in action throughout the whole Genesis represented in the Myth.


It is at work in the first duplication, Shu-Tefnut, issuing from Atum, the primordial One. It is at work in all personifications of the various aspects of the four elements. It is at work in the generative action of the Ennead; it is at work in all the multiplying divisions of the first maternal Neter, Apet, who 'numbers' by producing the procreative functions, and multiplies them by the functioji of 'nourishing'. It is at work in the opera­tion of the goddess Sefrkht (seven), who personifies the p ower of the sep­tenary in the manifestations of the Energy on earth (seven colours in light, sevcn musical tones, etc.).


Outer' and 'Inner' Teaching

  • 1. The sanctuary of an KMTian temple, with its chambers, corridors, and various chapels surrounding it, was the secret part of the temple; its walls were covercd with the most important texts, and it was separated from the 'open temple'-the peristyle-by the intermediate hall, or hypostyle.
  • 2. In the present work the term 'peristyle' indicates that symbolic place which stands, in every initiatory teaching,1 for the preliminary exterior that is exoteric instruction and observance. In cathedrals the only place to which catechumens had access was called the narthex. The Freemasons, on the other hand, when speaking of the disclosing or withholding of a secret teaching, used terms devoid of any reference to material facts or places (uncovcrcd Temple or covered Temple, etc.).
  • 3. The KMTians were far better acquainted with hydrostatics and hydraulic engineering than ourselves. The gigantic work of turning the course of the Nile and bringing it to Memphis was accomplished during the reign of that monarch. Accurately the measure of the power he had to oppose, and he constructed a dyke whose lofty mounds and enormous embankments turned the water eastward, and since that time the river is contained in its new bed, hydraulic construction from the KMTians. The KMTians evidently employed a far superior method in their channels and artificial waterworks.

Dimensions of Middle Kingdom Ship Technology

  1. Dimensions of a ship
  2. The funerary ark of (Cheops) unearthed in 1954; it was a complete ship, from keel to the matted covering on the deck; the hull was built of cedar boards, carefully matched and bound together with twine
  3. An apparent shipbuilding technique used for ships of considerable size was-different parts of ships' hulls were attached to each other, not by nails hammered into rib joints, but literally by sewing planks together with cords through holes drilled very close together along edges of boards to be assembled
  4. Papyrus reeds were used for making most ropes, rigging, and sometimes sails
  5. there were giant cargo ships for freighting grain, stones, bricks, and huge obelisks hewn from the quarries of Aswan
  6. There were small skiffs used for day-to-day household errands and individual fishing; there were massive ferries transporting people and goods form one bank of the Nile to the other at numerous stations near towns and villages
  7. there were war fleets, pleasure boats, stable boats and boats serving as cowsheds
  8. the ships were manned by stalwart, organized crews of trained sailors, at home on the Nile or on the ocean. Some were expert weathermen, who monitored the ship's progress and plotted the course ahead, steering clear of shoals
  9. Teams of oarsmen labored to propel the ships; some boats were towed with papyrus ropes from the banks; practically all boats carried masts, so that whenever a favorable wind rose, sails were unfurled
  10. The most capacious ships had cabins; they were built of timber, decorated and painted
  11. As early as the Neolithic period, KMTians were building boats

Construction of a Recreational Lake

  1. Engineers were required for the conception, design, organization and management of such complex projects
  2. Record of achievements in various fields including hydraulic, engineering, especially their irrigation system; inter-ocean canal construction (linking the Red Sea with the Mediterranean), development of nilometers, instrumental observatories for tracking flood levels on the Nile; construction of sacred lakes inside walled compounds; inter-urban roads; and large highways connecting cities of the living with necropolises
  3. KMTic architects developed techniques for constructing vaults without arches or frames
  4. To move huge blocks of stone needed for construction, KMTians knew advanced knowledge of the laws of balance
  5. To erect obelisks, a sophisticated system of inclined planes using unbaked bricks was developed

Textile Related Chemical Industries

  1. The national cloth was linen
  2. Varieties of flax produced yarn of more or less fine quality
  3. Women spun and wove blue, purple and scarlet fabrics by hand
  4. Chemicals were used to dye fabric; they had knowledge of the effects of acids and a number of insights into chemistry
  5. Chemical analysis of fabrics indicate that indigo, henna, and red carthamis were used as dyes. In addition, the red tincture used to dye fabrics came from rose.
  6. Historical implications-It is possible to trace the evolution of African textiles from prehistoric times to the present, via African Kmt
  7. Philosophical implications-to those capable of deciphering the arts of weaving and dyeing are media for nothing less than a complete code, a style of social communication

Geometrical and Astronomical Standards Governing the Orientation of Architectural Structures

  1. The language in the document indicates that the author was describing what she/he was doing in that moment.
  2. The Peraa uttered the words as he performed the tasks of demarcating the site on which the temple, pyramid, obelisk, palace or sacred monument was to be erected.
  3. Instruments were used to precisely demarcate the direction and dimensions of boundaries of the chosen plot.
  4. During the ceremony, the principle of mathematics, writing and construction-Seshat-was invoked. Invoking seshat guaranteed that the orientation, computations, and determinations of astronomical alignments of the new building would comply with the cosmic standard regulating all that was just, true, perfect, and eternal.
  5. Buildings were positioned and oriented in accordance with astronomical computations; the orientation had to be harmonized with the motions of the stars
  6. The Great Bear constellation (near the North Pole) was the focus of many Peraa's
  7. The temple was designed to reflect on earth what existed in the universe
  8. The process of laying the foundation was: (1) Astronomical observation: to determine the north-south direction-the orientation of the axis-of the building, using the motion of the Great Bear as a guide; (2) the foundation-laying ceremony-the marking of the four corners of the temple
  9. "Astronomical sighting" was a technique used to arrive at a precise determination of the north-south orientation of their buildings. Sightings were effected using two instruments-T-square and a notched rule-to measure maximum intervals between the star η and the Great Bear
  10. The KMTians observed that certain constellations appeared regularly in the same positions for ten days-decans
  11. Observed instruments include: water levels, plumb lines, gnomonic pointers (of varying sizes), flat sundials, concave hemispherical sundials, view-finders, meridian locators, globes, and clepsydra (water clock)
  12. Astronomers would take measurements based upon observations with various instruments (e.g., merkhet) and compare theirs with previously drawn charts. These charts plotted the positions of the stars during the 12 hours of the night at 15-day intervals throughout the year
  13. The merkhet, the rule and the attached plumb line were mainly used for the observation of the stars and to determine the hour at night
  14. To tell daylight hours, KMTians used a simple wooden or ivory rule with a vertical edge and a plumb line. They determined what hour it was according to the length of the shadow
  15. KMTians were interested in precisely measuring time and its passage and to mark out exact orientations for their sacred buildings
  16. African Kmt scientists were able to determine that the earth was a sphere by observing lunar eclipses
  17. To construct pyramids and orient them with exactitude to the true North, it was necessary to have a solid grounding in astronomy, carefully calculated plans, precise instruments on the ground, and a methodical organizational system for supervising work sites where individual projects could take a considerable length of time.

Mathematics


  1. Mathematical sciences were linked to the practical needs of life
  2. Science had to prove itself in action. It was an intellectual approach to reality, one that enabled humans to manipulate objects in order to achieve definite goals. In plain words, science at its birth was a type of knowledge that generated technical skills useful for social development. Good scientific methods were therefore those that helped people to understand nature so as to act upon it. From that viewpoint, understanding nature was not a matter of issuing verbal explanations for natural phenomena; it was a matter of achieving clear knowledge of realities, then using it in conscious action to reach desired goals
  3. Overriding intellectual attitude in the Rhind holds that the vocation of mathematical science is to stay committed to the methodical, operational control of the physical environment, while at the same time remaining a technical means for the explanation of reality.
  4. Method imposed rules necessary for understanding nature in all its aspects and phenomena, visible and invisible, patent as well as hidden
  5. In presenting a precise investigative method for research into nature, it reveals a highly scientific outlook
  6. Method is presented as a key factor into nature, in the acquisition of knowledge, in the constitution of science
  7. Every real science starts with a concern for method, defined as a path to desired outcomes. A science is also concerned with a program designed to regulate a set of linked and necessary operations. Method is essentially an operational logic designed to achieve set goals while also identifying errors to be avoided
  8. the Rhind has accomplished a decisive perception of number in its logical aspect. From that moment in African Kmt, mathematics, as a science of numbers, was conceived of as a set of rules and principles, a methodological corpus aimed at the penetration of nature, the understanding of all its secrets, and the comprehension of its underlying make-up
  9. Her is a mental attitude that expresses a scientific approach to intellectual work, replete with its practical implications
  10. for once committed to method, one moves farther away from received opinion and mass belief, often scientifically inconsistent, to embrace the serious and rigorous pursuit of reality
  11. The key philosophical issue, as far as the mathematical sciences in particular (and all science in general) has always been to understand the logical processes whereby the human mind avoids error in its search for truth. It is that logical process the KMTians called (method?) a set of rules, the correct method for studying nature in all its aspects and recesses, following a precise approach
  12. intellectual rigor was necessary because the only resource humans bring to the understanding of nature is reason, intelligence, shorn of all mysticism and superstition
  13. In the attempt to understand all that exists, human beings have to know from the start that there are things of which they are ignorant. This unknown aspect of reality was called ‘every mystery' and ‘every secret' of nature by Ahmes
  14. Method is mind at work in the field of science, following an approach typified by a global and systematic attitude, the recognition of the necessity of abstraction, the adherence to a systemic ethos
  15. Now in African Kmt, there was no arbitrary separation between theory and practice, rather a holistic way of thinking, systemic, global and comprehensive
  16. In practical terms, it was KMTic science, applied to the control of the environment and the creation fo a solid material base, that produced all that we now know as Peraa civilization
  17. Dispassionately contemplated, the entire range of ancient African Kmt civilization, with its canals, artificial lakes, statues, pyramids, obelisks, colossi, palaces, agricultural infrastructures right in the middle of an arid desert, its ceramics and its mummification skills, presents itself as the systematic application of science to production
  18. Science is not a discourse to be proclaimed for its own sake
  19. The Rhind presents solutions to theoretical problems raised by the practice of computing fractions
  20. Moscow papyrus deals with the problem of determining the volume of a pyramid
  21. African Kmt mathematical tradition produced a working approximation of the number pi, which belongs to the category of ‘transcendental numbers'
  22. The formulas were used to address practical problems involving architecture, etc.
  23. African Kmt held the necessity for a correct method be used in directing human intelligence in its effort to understand reality-the science of mathematics
  24. African Kmt conception of mathematics required that the abstract science be complemented by the applied and technical sciences
  25. African Kmt wanted to inform the whole study of natural phenomena with mathematical reasoning, thus ensuring that mathematical method, built on exactitude and rigor, governed the conception of spiritual and material life

Knowledge of the technique of algebraic calculation


  1. single unknown;
  2. Used abstract and symbolic notation of the unknown factor, but could not give it material expression in

UNIVERSE, GALAXEY, SOLAR SYSTEM, EARTH

21,000,000,000bce-3,600,000,000bce



Universe


The universe is a complex, ever expanding synthesis of matter and anti-matter.  Though the exact conditions that produced the early universe are not known, science has demonstrated that over billions of years, raw, unorganized, fluid, ever changing, primordial matter through intense struggle often under harsh conditions, gave rise to highly organized, complex, creative, precise, and multiform phenomena.  What humans see and experience today represents only the most recent manifestations of historical conditions that are billions of years in the making.


All that exists in the universe has a period of birth, a period of growth and development, a period where it gains strength, attains maturity, then grows old, runs its course, reaches its limits, declines, decays, dies out, and is reborn in another form of energy.  This motion is constant and never ending, with one-dimensional time, and three-dimensional space constraints.  Universes, galaxies, solar systems, stars and planets all had to live and die so that the earth on which we live might come into being and make itself suitable for life.  


This process resulted from explosions of anti-matter and matter, producing the bonded energy that eventually formed elements, stars, planets, solar systems, galaxies, and complete universes.  The materials of this solar organism such as stars, gas, energy particles, cosmic debris, planets, asteroids, comets, nebulae, black holes, etc., are bonded together by gravitational forces which form solar systems and clusters of galaxies.  This gravitational soup is the webbing of the universe, which is continually expanding, moving, and changing.


In a helixed struggle and unity between matter and anti-matter, bonded energy eventually formed elementary particles, elements, stars, planets, solar systems, galaxies, and universes.  These solar organisms bonded together with gravitational forces-consisting of a balance between the forces of repulsion and attraction-which in turn formed solar systems and clusters of galaxies.  In time this gravitational soup became the cosmic webbing of the infant universe, which continually expanded, changed, and developed. 


Galaxy to Solar System to Earth


From this universe came our galaxy, then our solar system.  The Milky Way galaxy materialized in the context of the same quantum fluctuation mechanism, which led to the revolutionary, then evolutionary formation and expansion of the universe as a whole. After the explosion which transformed matter and anti-matter from chaos to order, the universe began to form itself into what it has become today concentrated fragments of matter and anti-matter shaped into hot glowing lumps (stars) clustered together in cosmic islands (galaxies) that spiral in a cyclic process scattered billions of light years apart.


Within our solar system formed stars (including the sun), planets, moons, asteroids, and comets with all being electro-magnetically held together by precisely balanced gravitational forces of attraction and repulsion.  The entire system has been constantly in motion from the beginning, having no days off and moving at colossal speeds. 


Stars, the organizing bodies of any solar system, are suns with their own rings of planets revolving on their axes and turning with the entire galaxy as it turns on its own axis.  There are hundreds of billions of stars in our solar system.  Each star is a blazing fiery solar hurricane.  Its entire surface is in a state of bubbling, erupting, burning, hot agitation with colossal fiery heat waves passing over the turbulent stars.  With a burning hot surface, stars shoot out galactic streams of fire as gigantic eruptions of internal heat, pulsating, throbbing, illuminating, and pouring forth into space in the form of radiation giving life to planets and their moons.  Physical gravitational fields connect the particles allowing them to interact and to thus exist. 


Without electromagnetic fields nothing would connect electrons and protons together in atoms, nor would atoms bind to form molecules, and molecules combine into tissue.  From attraction of the most elementary substances emerged subatomic particles that would form protons and electrons, which, depending on the quantity and the nature of the relationship, produced at least one hundred naturally occurring atoms, a small minority of which combined to form the overwhelming majority of the matter in the universe.  All matter, in all of its manifestations is in motion-throbbing, illuminating, being born, dying away-constituting the boundless universal colossal cosmic ocean of rarefied substance in which the cosmic bodies float little by little based on their own internal laws of existence. 


Planetoids-hot, throbbing, and in motion-frequently crash into one another, breaking up, fusing, becoming larger still with the end result being nine solar system planets and their moons, along with the existing asteroids, comets, and meteoroids. Their motions are deliberate, driven and with purpose, all moving within the context of the Virgo Super cluster which houses our galaxy at 2,000,000 km/hr, rotating as the Milky Way galaxy at 900,000 km/hr, with the planet Earth moving at a rate of 66,000 miles per hour (108,000 km/hr) around the sun while simultaneously spinning on its own axis at a rate of 1000 miles per hour (1,660 km/hr).   The Solar system is located in a large system of billions of stars called the Milky Way galaxy and is 28,000 light years from it's the center.


The earth is daily maturing as a planet, growing and fitting itself for life.  Its development began with to form its core and mantle, took on and oblate spheroid egg shape as it cooled down in the process of spinning on its potter's wheel---on its axis.  While forming south and north polar opposites, and at the same time being composed of heavy elements these planets, including earth simply could not have formed early in the universe because there were no heavy elements in the early formative process of universe, planets awaited the birth and death of billions of high mass stars.  Many millions of stars therefore died so that we might live.  Many ancient supernovae occurred so that Earth and other planets made of heavy elements could live. 


These complex bodies thus formed are the foundations for the stars and their satellites, the planets and their satellites, stellar systems and the meta-galaxies that encompass them; meta-galaxies make up universes, and so on into the outer reaches of space.   Our galaxy materialized in the context of the same quantum fluctuation mechanism, which led to the revolutionary, then evolutionary formation, and expansion of the universe as a whole. After the explosion which transformed Matter and anti-matter from chaos to order, the universe began to form itself into what it has become today---concentrated fragments of Matter and anti-matter shape into hot glowing lumps (stars) clustered together in cosmic islands (galaxies) that spiral in a cyclic process scattered billions of light years apart.  Overall, the Sun, methodically formed in nebulae with the smaller denser globule emerging within, becoming smaller and hotter, beginning to shine faintly forming a large red Protostar and proto-planets, contracting further but getting hotter, becoming a slowly rotating, but stable ball of burning gas fueled by the energy generated when hydrogen in the core fuses too become helium, contains more than 99.9 percent of the entire matter and anti-matter in our solar system.  In addition all of the energy used by living things comes from the sun whose light cause photosynthesis in green plants which die along with animals and trees and become fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas.  Animals derive their energy from plants that photosynthesize ether directly or indirectly.  With a core temperature of 28,280,000 F, a temperature at the bottom of the photosphere of 12,400 F and equatorial diameter of 865,000 miles, main elemental components being helium and hydrogen, a mass of 2.192x1027, and 9500 pounds of mass converted to energy each second, it will require 6.4 billion years for the sun's expected life of hydrogen fuel supply to burn out.   The age of this solar system was inferred from dating of the oldest meteorites.  The oldest moon rocks found by the Apollo astronauts have also yielded a similar age.  From these studies, we infer that all the planets within the solar system formed within a period of less than 100 million years, approximately 4.6 billion years ago.


Earth


As a result, Earth evolved based on its unique and suitable place in the solar system, its mass formed within the same quantum fluctuation mechanism, which produced the solar system-galaxy-universe as a whole.  Formation and maturation of our planet Earth and moon occurred 4.6 billion years ago.  The planet Earth cooled, planet hardened, plant took egg-like shape, magnetic field formed, and its orbits became routine.  Gravitational relationships between the sun and its planets became mature, first permanent crust on earth formed, elementary particle combine to form atoms combine to form molecules combine to form macromolecules. 


Virtually every planet or moon is presently in a different stage of development, much as red giants and white dwarfs represent varied stages of stellar evolution. The formation of this universe, galaxy, and solar system were the physical processes, which created the natural conditions for life on the planet earth.  As earth, the fifth largest planet in the solar system and the third from the sun began to form its core and mantle its shape became oblate spheroid, like a fat round egg.  It like every other planet in the solar system is a different stage of development compared to other planets. 


Earth, a relatively small, cool planet rotating on its axis in orbit around and under the gravitational influence of a local star and its system of planets, evolved based on its unique and suitable place in the solar system, and its mass formed within the same quantum fluctuation mechanism which produced the solar system, galaxy and universe as a whole.  Its polar circumference is 24,859.73, while its equatorial circumference is 24,901.46.   Its polar diameter is 7899.99 miles.  The tilt of earth's axis is approximately 66.5 degrees.  Earth revolutions and orbits equal 1,120 miles per minute, 67,000 miles per hour, 590 million miles a year around the sun.  Surface temperatures vary largely with the angle a which the Sun's rays strike different parts of Earth's round surface as a result land around the equator receives more concentrated solar heat and thus more solar energy that other areas of the same size near the North or South Poles. Its mean distance to the sun is 92,960,000 miles which means that if the sun were the size of a honeydew melon, the earth at the same scale would be the size of a pinhead and lie about one foot away.  The mean distance of the earth to the moon is 238,857 miles.  It rotation period is 23.9 hours; its equatorial diameter is 7,927 miles; its orbital period in days is 365.256; its orbital velocity is 18.51 miles per second; its inclination of axis is 23.45; its surface temperature is 58.7 farenheight; and it has one planetary satellite.  From space Earth appears to be a bright white and light blue marble, white because of clouds, blue because it is mostly cover by water.


The earth, which is 4.6 billion years old, once existed in such a state that no human life form could have existed on it.  From a period intense heat, to solar organization of elementary particles of various chemical compounds, to the sinking inward of the densest particles to form a core, to the continued sorting of particles, which led to the primeval planet, Earth, to the formation of earth's major layers (crust, mantle, and core) there has been much growth and development.  Its atmosphere is 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 1% water, and 0.92% argon.   The tenuous outer layer of Earth's atmosphere begins about 310 miles above Earth's surface.  Between about 60 miles down to about 30 miles is the mesosphere; below the stratosphere down to about 8 miles, and finally there is the troposphere, the bottom layer.  The atmosphere, with Earth's magnetic field, shields us from nearly all harmful radiation coming from the sun.


Because the earth had to go through numerous epochs of inorganic development before it fitted itself to sustain organic life, the first one billion years were spent forming an atmosphere, water, oceans and preparing the process of photosynthesis.  Being a terrestrial planet, Earth has a hard rocky surface, a comparatively high density, a concentration of metallic elements, some atmosphere and a magnetic field.  Land formed.  The total area of the earth is 196,940,400 square miles.  The mass of the earth is 6,585,000,000,000,000,000,000 tons.  Its volume is 259,875,300,000 cubic miles clasped by intense belts of trapped radiation.  Its interior is hot, liquid rock, and iron.  Its surface composition developed over time until today it is 70.92 percent water (about 139,628,046 square miles); 29.08 percent dry land (about 57,308,437 square miles).  Earth tillable soil is 6 percent, while its thickness of crust is between 6 to 40 miles, because continental crust is less dense but thicker than oceanic crust.  The interior consists of three main layers: outer crust, composed of at least 20 tectonic plates that move from a few inches to several that are largely made up of granite and basalt rock, varies from 55 miles deep under the continent to 3 miles deep under the oceans; mantle, extending 1,900 miles below the surface and is composed of silicate rock rich iron; with the top portion of the mantle being semi-liquid down to about 150 miles, the rigid upper core crust moves is broken into large plates that move slowly on this partially fluid layer.  Beneath lays the Earth's iron and nickel core with the core being over 7000degrees Farinheight.  On surface, Earth has ten ecosystems, i.e., mountain, desert, rain forest, savanna, steppe, broadleaf forest, tundra, prairie, needle leaf forest, and ice cap.  These ecological systems are scattered across 13 landmasses.  Land covers 30 percent of Earth's surface, during ice ages, sea levels fall and more land is exposed; when ice sheets melt, sea levels rise and sallow seas invade low lying plains.  These regions continually change because of wind currents, changing weather patterns, migrations, etc.  One-third of earth's land surface is dessert or semi-desert (not including the polar and sub polar "cold deserts").  The largest hot desert is the Sahara (3,500,000 square miles.)  The largest cold desert is Antarctica (about 5,000,000 square miles).  Earth has even continents in order of size: Asia (the largest at 16,988,000 square miles and 29.4% of surface area) Africa (20.2%), North America (16.3%), South America (11.9%), Antarctica (9.0%), Europe (7.1%) and Oceania (6.1%).  The largest island is the continent of Australia (2,967,909).  Earth's longest river is the African Nile, (4,145 miles).  There are four oceans, with the Pacific Ocean alone being larger in area than all the land in the world combined; 64, 186,300 square miles and 346,000,000,000,000,000,000 gallons.  Earth has 32 seas. Water, virtually all of it sea water, covers 70 percent of the Earth's surface varying in composition; oceans seas make up 97.2%, ice and snow make up 2.16%, ground water and soil water make up 0.625%, lake water and rivers make up 0.018% and Air makes up 0.0014%.  In additions, the seas waters are made up of over 77.8% sodium chloride, 10.9 percent magnesium chloride, 4.7 percent magnesium sulfide, and 3.6 calcium sulfates of solids.


There was a time of birth, there is a process of development, and there is a time period when what is in existence no longer is fitted to exist, even in the case of 10 billion-year-old star systems.  One can infer that all the planets within the solar system formed within a period of less than 100 million years, approximately 4.6 billion years ago, out of the raw material of the sun, and are presently in some initial stage of its birth, death, and rebirth process. Earth initially existed in a form that could not support life and thus had to fit itself to become mother of organic life.  This origin of life cannot be seen as an appearance of one organism, but as a series of simple organism that arose within the biosphere nearly 4.6 billion years ago was the Precambrian-Archaean eon, the earliest and longest unit of geological time, the first continents coalesced, volcanoes erupted and   monerans such as bacteria and blue green algae developed,.  Cooling and formation of the Earth, Moon and other planets out of hot minerals, metals, chemical compounds elements, and various gas particles.   Magnetic fields begin to form and stabilize.  Earth crust hardens.  4.0 billion years ago.  First permanent crust formed.  Of the Earth's 92 naturally occurring elements, 8 account for over 98% of the weight of the Earth's crust.  These combine into the "rock forming" minerals.  Three major layers begin to form ultimately resulting in.  Crust thin skin of hard rock 7-42miles thick.  Mantle dense, semi-molten rock 1,800 miles thick.  Core densest, hottest layer, 4340 miles in diameter, made of iron and nickel.  Outer core is molten; inner core is solid and rotates internally in an opposite direction than the earth.  That forged the earth's air, water and land, solidified first in Africa; the organic process leading to the earth fitting itself for the emergence of organic life on earth over 3.7 billion years ago, first began in Africa.  Many of the earliest life forms were been discovered in Africa, and its ancient rocks are the repository of evidence from all stages in the evolution of life forms. Africa was the "keystone" from which tectonic forces drove the other continents on their global wanderings. Dinosaurs and the earliest-known mammals were present on the continent 200 million years ago.


Organic Life in Water to Life on Land


The fossils preserved in the 3.6-billion-year-old cherts of the Fig Tree formation are the relics of single-cell bacteria. They comprise the earliest-known evidence of life on Earth, marking the transition from a sterile to an ultimately fertile world. The exact process by which life came into being remains a mys­tery (most probably it was the product of chemical evolution),~ but it is certain that for millions of years life was fuelled solely by the chemicals that the organisms absorbed through their cell walls. Other feeding arrangements came into use around 3.3 billion years ago with the evolution of organisms able to manufacture food internally--the photo synthesizers, such as blue-green algae. Photo synthesizers use the energy of the sun to convert water and carbon dioxide into the simple sugars they require. And in the process they give off oxygen.  Until the arrival of the photo synthesizers the Earth's atmosphere had been devoid of oxygen (indeed, none of the earliest life forms could survive in oxy­genated conditions), but over the next billion years the photo synthesizers became the dominant life forms, and produced so much oxygen that vast


This emerging life begins to take the form of simple DNA and RNA molecules as vehicles of heredity, complexes of protein molecules, single cells, multiple cells, tissue-based complex organisms, organs, functional systems (neural, blood circulation, digestive, gas exchange, etc.), the organism as a whole, families of organism, colonies, various populations the formation of from multicellular organisms that possessed increasingly complex inherent capacities to adapt to changing earthly conditions; the transition to invertebrates, vertebrates, reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and primates; and then the transition to human life over 5.5 million years ago, again in Africa, this time on the equator---(species, biological communities, and the whole biosphere).  3.6 billion years ago.  Atmosphere and seawater formed.  The first small continents coalesced, first bacteria form, volcanoes erupt on volatile Earth surface.  3.3 billion years ago.   Oldest sedimentary rocks.  First stromatolites.  Atmosphere with some carbon dioxide.  3.1 billion years ago.
