According to Genesis 1:26 -and other holy books- we all are but when crack cocaine first hit the streets of North America in the mid 1980s. Black and Latino communities throughout the country were devastated as the death toll for young males between the ages of 14 and 21 sharply climbed due to crack related crimes. In this extraordinary memoir of self-discovery, Derric Moore shares how he lost his faith in God due to religious dogma, politics and lack of spiritual training, during those times. It was only after receiving startling instructions to study the Ancient Egyptians, in order to learn how they built their society using the Power of God. Followed by spiritual insecurities, financial problems, homelessness, heartbreaking relationships and a debilitating illness. He discovered a spiritual blueprint inspired by the Bantu Kongo Cross but based upon the Ancient Egyptian concepts and principles, called the maa aankh that helped him to re-connect to God by realizing his divinity. Through the maa aankh, which roughly means -To Swear an Oath to God to Live Truth - Derric was able to tap into the power of God in order to overcome personal trials and tribulations - generational curses, financial woes and health issues. If you re tired of searching for answers, tired of feeling disenchanted, powerless, and you are not afraid of learning about the past in order to bring about positive change. This book is for you. Based upon the author's personal experience and quest to better understand God, MAA AANKH provides the layperson and expert with simple advice to navigate through the sea of life.

I am Derric Moore aka Rau Khu and I’m the author of the Maa Aankh series, the founder of the Land of Kam blog, a math teacher, artist, and a self-initiated shaman. I was pruned to be a preacher but I answered my calling to be a shaman. So, I understand the difficulties of losing one’s faith and learning one’s ancestral faith in order to have a more peaceful state of mind. This is why I have dedicated my life to helping you transition from a fundamentalist lifestyle to a more holistic and spiritually empowering life, by using ancient African and contemporary spiritual practices.

I found it easy to relate to what the brother was saying. The book held my attention despite many errors in punctuation throughout it (especially the use of periods in lieu of commas).

It is quite obvious that the author spent time in Ausar Auset Society, then had some guidance from the orisa community and folks involved in Spiritism, before connecting with his spirit guides and finding his own way. Good for him!
