Spirituality Before Religions, delves deeply into many ideas researched by many brilliant writers and scholars. My ultimate purpose is to synthesize these writings into a comprehensive study of ancient African Deep Thought with Tep Heseb, the Kemetic (Egyptian) process of accurately reckoning by using the correct method of analysis. This clear and concise philosophy guided early humanity into the heavens on earth, while creating a heaven on earth. African educator, Dr. John Henrik Clarke teaches us that to be self-sufficient, people have to see the Creator when they look in the mirror. If not, they will never have a healthy “self-concept.” He reminds us, “Anytime you turn on your own concept of God, you are no longer a free man or woman. No one needs to put chains on your body, because the chains are on your mind. Anytime someone says their God is ugly and they release their God and embraces someone else’s God, there is no hope for their freedom until they once more believe in their own concept of the Deity.”1 Dr. Alvin Boyd Kuhn says, “No matter how emotionally, how fanatically the worshipper pours out adoration to a person in objective life, the work of his own evolution is not accomplished until he effectuates the ultimate divinization of the nuclear potentiality of deific fire within his own self-controlled area of consciousness” Dr. Kuhn continues his thought, “The balanced forces of human uplift would be thrown into immediate chaos if it were in the end possible for a man to achieve his apotheosization (deification of a person) vicariously, or in any other way than through his own effort. Man was provided from the start with the presence of a unit of divine fire within the heart of his own way to the goal of glory. All efforts are driven towards the cultivation of the God within man.” These are the main points I will make in Spirituality Before Religions: Spirituality is Unseen Science, Science is Seen Spirituality. Tep Heseb is a major Kemetic (Egyptian) concept that can be interpreted to mean, “An Accurate Reckoning by Using the Correct Method.” We must analyze the Kemetic (Egyptian) writings by using the method applied by Africans for Africans in Africa. There are Two (2) Laws of Cosmic Spirituality 1st Law – Love and Respect the Creator within you; know you are the Creator having a human experience. 2nd Law– Love and Respect the Creator in Nature the same way you love the Creator within yourself. The purpose of “Spirituality Before Religions,” is to demonstrate that humanity’s earliest ideas about spirituality originated in the minds of human beings conceived, born, nurtured, sustained, educated and civilized in the Great Lakes Region in Central/East/South Africa. The Great Lakes Region includes countries we today call Kenya, Uganda, Tanganyika, Congo, and Southern Africa. After these ancient scholars perfected their worldview, they then traveled north, south, east, and west along ancient river systems, developing civilizations in harmony with Nature on the African continent. Over time, they explored the Earth and laid the foundations for all other ethnic stocks and cultures world-wide. As we enter into the Age of Aquarius, we must recognize that it is the Age of the Feminine Principle. There is an indirect and direct relationship between Black Holes, Worm Holes and White Holes in the Cosmos with the Womb of the WombedMan. Black Holes can be compared to the Placenta connected to the mother’s uterine wall, that attracts, captures and sends life through the Umbilical cord that sustains the fetus, through the navel connection. The future wealth of the earth is going to be Solar Power.
I enjoyed reading this books. The concepts this book introduced were very enlighting. I liked how it married spiritual concepts to scienctific concepts. These ideals are circular in theory because they all exists on an equal plane. The book is a lot to digest and should be read more than once to truly understand the material presented. I could highly recommend this book to enlighten yourself on the intergrual knowledge of the Ancient Africa.
I am close to finishing this book but i felt it was very necessary to do a review.
This book is a MUST READ for anyone who is interested in studying or is already studying African spirituality. Professor Kaba Hiawatha is the perfect person to introduce educate anyone on African spirituality and Anceint Kemetic history.
I have been following Dr. Kamene for a few years now. His insight and informative research never disappoint. Learned a lot in my first read through. There are a lot of great references to other books as well which honestly is one of my favorite things about this book (the fact that it references so many other books). Dr. Kaba Kamene is a great educator who exhibits a firm understanding of the Ancient esoteric mysteries hidden within the writings, myths, rituals, and symbolism of our Ancestors. But, not only this, as mentioned, he introduced you to many other authors that are privy of this ancient wisdom. And he includes his personal teaching curriculum with lost of recommended reading material to boot!This is more than a book, it's a potential personal guide. Very well done!
The great detail and knowledge make this book a must read. The principles of Ma'at and the history of how many and most religion gleaned and stole from African spirituality is mund blowing.
Great book on ancient Kemet spirituality that shares the truth, history, and facts about religion in general. This is to show we as Melanated people of our ancestors that we were spiritual before religion ever existed.
There is a lot of great information and wisdom found in the great work. With the sources to back it. I definitely would recommend this work as required reading.

Im kinda scared to do a pre review on this work but I did purchase the right to do so.
So far I'm not a fan of his style of righting however it is on point (mostly so far it is accurate) I however i am a big fan of his lectures!
So far I have read most of the works he gathered from other people and I keep my Dictionary and computer open and Fired up with every page.
I probably will be changing my post review later on after finishing the book but as it stands for now it feels like a re read of everything I have read, I can say that for those whom never read many other works you are mostly in for a big treat! And I will also say yes! His work is 100% accurate as far as what I have read.
This book was very enlightening. I learned so much from this book, things you don’t learn in history class. Reading this also realized how much unlearning we have to do as well. This book isn’t heavy but it’s rich with information which can make it difficult to understand sometimes. That’s why it took me months to complete. I wanted to take my time to soak all this rich history in. I love the Appendixes, it helped a lot. Good read, you just have to be in the right mental capacity.
This book discusses the origin of religion and existence. It will demonstrate the elementary foundation of most religious practices, and it will challenge us to explore our spirituality outside of religion. It also did an excellent job connecting science to spirituality.
