"Free and critical minds can emerge only by a return to the source-the primary sources. A free and critical mind takes nothing for granted and is not intimidated by "authorities" who frequently may be more confused than the general public. Free and critical minds seek truth without chauvinism or shame."-Asa G. Hilliard III

If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Knowledge Of Total Potential Self
Phase One
Unity Consciousness #1074

.

Re-Image Your Total Self Through Re-Imagination

Set aside all current notions about humans and re-imagine the time in Africa when the very first human evolved and was the only human in the world. Then imagine that person being able to project herself into the future. So now there's the original human existing back then and also the projection of that human who exists in the future of today. That future human is us.

We have used the process of imagination to quickly re-create ourselves from back then to now.
In actuality, it takes many processes to transform original human into current day human variations.

It is unlikely anyone would imagine themselves into the future and have the projected self look the same as their current self.
Same is true when any form of creation actually moves through processes over periods of time. It is not possible for any organism to remain the same when going through process after process after process. No, not in the short-term or in the long-term.

When we use imagination, it's easy to understand that we are the projected self of the original human. We are a variation and extension of our former original self.
Same thing is true in actuality. Whatever human exists in the future will be a variation of us. We are the primitives to our future selves. Likewise then, we are also a variation of humans of the past. They are our primitives. We are them and they are us.

Within the original human, the potential for all future variations exist. Even if these variations do not actually come into existence, the potential is still there.

Transformation, Call It What You Want

Evolution, change, metamorphosis, adjustment, adaptation, variation, specialization, growth, development, revision, edit, update, correction, digestion, alteration, translation, interpretation, configuration, formulation,....
It's all process – creative process. Process is two or more conditions which transform energy in any form. Inherent in process is motion (time).

The Hidden Self & Revealed Self

When there was only one human, that human was the revealed self. All of us variations are the hidden self of the original. We are hidden in the genetic potential of the original.
Likewise, now that we are revealed right now, our former selves (the original first human) is now hidden in plain sight.

To put this another way: we are currently the revealed humans and our Ancestors and unborn Descendants are the hidden version of us, just as we are a version of those who came before us. Everything and everyone always exists as revealed or hidden potential.
To put this another way: The present is revealed while the past and future are hidden. Yet all three exist right now.

Due to process, genetic potential is exposed to a set of conditions over time which changes that potential into various forms. This is true of everything in the Universe.
Process reveals and process hides.
There is peace of mind and blessed assurance in understanding process in regards to self, other humans and all else.

Everything Is Nature & Nature Is The Creator

Everything in the Universe represents the hidden or revealed potential of the Creator. This is not just limited to the physical.
Know yourself is not a human ideology. It is the Creator's. As said many times before, the Creator is engaged in the same evolutionary process of obtaining knowledge of self in relation to all else.

All process must be at least two-sided in order for a continuous self-sustaining process to exist. We already know early humans came into knowledge of self, and now we are living examples that humans have lost knowledge of self. Our estrangement from the rest of Nature is proof enough. Now the process has started over where humans are again coming into knowledge of self and seeking to “go green” again. This corresponds with the totality of Nature that is continuously transforming its genetic potential. Sign-language is telling us all we need to be told in order to know the total and potential self.

Viewing The Same Process From A Different Angle

Since first there was original human who came to know self and then there were variations of the original who lost knowledge of self, the cycle is complete. Since the cycle has started over and we are moving again towards knowledge of self, then the physical cycle has also started over.
Back then, original human came first and then variation came out of the original.
Now, variation is being renewed and restored, and thus, an updated version of the original is coming out of us.
Humans of today are giving rebirth to their primitive selves in updated form based on all the learning that has taken place in our genetic potential.
Under no circumstances is this to be mis-taken as a return to a shorter version of human primate. Instead, Sign-language tells us it means a return to the stronger principles and powers of Nature inherent in the genetic potential of humans which will allow us to overcome all conditions we face, because we've been there before and now we are re-membering.

Forget The Past Deeply Revisited
Unity Consciousness #1021

.

Many messages have already discussed the importance of “the past” and Sankofa. Yet, the world is filled with many more messages that keep telling us to forget the past. So here we go again using some different angles.

America probably invented the “forget the past” secondary suboptimal truncated sense of awareness. America needs it the most.

America uses this phrase mainly for three purposes:
1. To tell African Black folks to forget the past of your greatness and forget the injustices.
2. To tell Asian White folks to forget the past of where you came from and your behavior worldwide.
3. To tell everybody, forget that all of your present understandings are based on your understanding of the past. If you forget the past, you must also forget what you think you know.

America is saying, forget certain specific particular portions of the past, but remember the past we teach in history class.
Forget the past of how your religion came to be, but remember holy days (holidays) we choose to praise.
Limit your past to an Americanized Black History Month while we true Americans talk about our past 24/7/365 via newspapers, magazines, radio, television, movies, sports, parades, politics, laws, etc.

Remember portions of the past of the last 300 years but forget the rest.
Remember fragments of the past thousands of years ago but forget most of it because remembering the past makes the present an obvious fabrication of world history.

Nearly every city in America has a historic district and some sort of preservation society and library. All cities erect statues and monuments. All of this is the past they don't want to forget or let go of.

Constant references are made to the past when people talk about records or the last time something happened or the first time something happened or that something has never happened. All of this utilizes the past.

Your resume' is the past. Criminal background is the past. Where were you last night is the past.

Moving on from the past cannot happen until understandings about the past have matured through all levels of awareness. And even as this happens in stages, we still never forget the past.

Forgetting the past is like amputating your brain and still expecting to be sane.

How is it possible to correct mistakes if we forget about the past? Did you kill that person yesterday? Let's just forget about the past. Were you speeding? That was 2 minutes ago officer, I slowed down and pulled over so what's the problem?

Forget what you just read in this message, that's in the past.
Forget what you've learned all your life, that was in the past.
That's right, do not forget miseducation – transform it.
A lie is just a disfigured form of the truth.
Lies must be reconfigured into their proper form.
Time exists as a continuing thing because time is a transformation of past, present and future.
Likewise the events of time (history) are also transformations of each other: past events transform into present events which transform into future events.
A mutation is a transformation of what is healthy. When we reverse the process and transform mutation, that is restoration. We must remember (reassemble) the past and fix it based on adjustments we understand today.

We have or don't have what exists today because of what was or was not done in the past..
How is it possible to build on success if we forget about the past?
Forget about the past and you must also forget your memories. Forget the good times and the bad times.
Stop keeping pictures and photo albums. They represent the past.
Without harmony, we cannot connect past, present and future. We can neither learn from the past, appreciate the present nor pay forward for the future. We cannot bring our inheritance and our legacy into our current living space. This is counter to evolving because it does not allow building on the past or uplifting the future. Because our comprehension is not comprehensive, we are operating counter to evolution.
The reason we are so goofy about climate change today, in the present, and really don't know how climate change will manifest in the future is because we do not understand the mountains of world history global climate change in the past.
Because of this same nature of our thought processes, our daily behavior follows the same path of goofiness.

Everything that happens today, that we think is new, happens because of the past.
We are not new people. We are past people.

Every bit of our genetics in our cells is from the past and is the past.
Forget the past means forget your ancestors, forget your dead relatives. They are in the past. Forget Memorial Day.

The present is the accumulation, culmination and integration of the past. The only reason the present continues to exist each day is due to the continuous ongoing nonstop accumulation, culmination and integration of the past.
You could not eat without the past. Seeds contain genetic history, i. e., the past.
Trees are trees because of the past. Thank God for perennials because perennials existed in years past and still exist now.
Your medication is based on the past.
Research is the past.
Science is based on the past. How can you learn anything without the past.
You cannot build a better mouse trap, without past mousetraps.
You cannot reinvent the wheel without the past invention of the wheel.
You cannot fix what is broken, if it did not already exist in the past in an unbroken condition.
Religion gets all of its present credibility from the past.

Why should we care about the origin of anything if we are supposed to forget about the past?

The present is the imagination of the past.
The future is the imagination of the present.

When as humans we forget our past, we meet our past in the future by living moving in reverse. It's called "repeating mistakes."

Origin Of The Word “PAST”

“Past” is a form of “stay” and “stop” which descended as follows:
“Ka” is the seat, throne, land, earth, stone, floor. When we said “Sta” or “Stay,” the Egyptians cried “Ka” and made the hieroglyphic with two uplifted arms, the figure of the full-stop, their earlier “St.”
“Sta” is equivalent to “Ng,” Ngata and stayer. Ngata is (Nga + ta). Nga is K, the ankh. Ta is T, thus Ngata reduces to Kt.
Kt is the earlier form of Sut, the elder child and firstborn. Kt + Sut = St. The Star is one of the many places the duality of ST is found.
With the Egyptian masculine article “P” prefixed to “St” we obtain our words “Post” and “Past.” [paraphrased from (BB 170-1/182-3)]

In other words, the past represents what stays and cannot be moved or removed. The past is the fixed and the enduring as a component of life and existence. The past represents both the Mother and The Child, the two truths of what has come before. The present is the third manifestation of the earlier two pasts.
The past is the raw materials of the present.
The past is the substrate and enzymes that produce the present human interactions.
Nearly all of what exists in the present, consists of two stages of the past. The present moment is small.
If the future rested on the present only, the future would fall.
The present fits on the head of a pin with room to spare, but the past rests on the Tree of Eternity.
Forgetting the past is like living on that thin line between the realities of yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Nothing happens in this world without the past. Nothing.
Everything that exists today, and that is or is not going on, is a version, variation and transformation of the past.
In addition to the above notions that have been identified, here are four more we might as well get clarified:
1. There are no indigenous people anywhere on this planet except in one place. Any group of people outside of Africa are migrants who migrated out of Africa or who migrated from groups who migrated out of Africa.

2. Even if we mistakenly consider the old days as inferior to today, nothing we are able to achieve today is possible without those so-called inferior old stone age cave man backward days.

3. Even if we mistakenly consider earlier humans as inferior and consider homo sapiens sapiens as the best evolution since sliced bread, nothing we do today would be possible were it not for what those primitives achieved. We owe everything to our primitive Ancestors.

4. The term ”modern,” as currently used in the Asian era of greater influence on operating system logic, does not mean better, improved, updated, more civilized, or existing as a result of more intelligent use of science and technology. Modern simply means current, recent, the present. The words modern, the present, recent and current are synonyms. We must stop equating “periods of time” to “quality of life and existence.”
Quality of life lies in the combination of elements.
