AMRKHMWST ∆

The Statement of Core Values

We as Khemetic Beings commit to the value of Trust, the foundation of a relationship based on a belief in oneself as well as others, which is earned and strengthened through experience. The value of trust is found in our reliance on each other and enables an open comfort in interacting with brothers and sisters of AMRKHMWST.

We commit to the value of Honor, staying true to a set of higher standards and morals in the face of adversity. Partaking of the mindset of AMRKHMWST means a commitment to leading an honorable life.

We commit to the value of Respect, which begins with yourself and the practice of the golden rule, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." This statement is the acceptance of the ideals of others. In order to move progressively forward as a family, we must consider each other's viewpoints and be able to agree to dis-agree.

We commit to the value of Knowledge, the acquisition of thought, theory and principles following in the footsteps of our founding fathers of Kemet in accordance with our oath of God and Goddess state of being. With this knowledge we will come closer to self-RA-discovery, the improvement of society and the translation of knowledge, wisdom and overstanding into power.

We commit to the value of Wisdom, a virtue gained through experiences of self and others. Wisdom is the application of knowledge and past experiences and past lives to make decisions regardless of the situation Learning to trust in your ka and utilizing it consciously. Through sharing wisdom, a bond is formed between young and old, teacher and student; this bond is what brings us together.

We commit to the value of Responsibility, by being reliable in the fulfillment of the objectives of our NTR state in human form and our personal obligations in the physical, enduring the consequences of our actions.

We commit to the value of Integrity, our inner foundation for holding true to our values of trust, honor, respect, knowledge, wisdom, and responsibility that guides us to make the best decisions.

As we have seen these values to be critical in the past, they will become even more important in the future!

The Objectives for AMRKHMWST

AMRKHMWST expects you to assume responsibility in the areas of scholarship, fraternal affairs, financial obligations, personal conduct, and contribution to your KHEMETIC community.

Scholarship

The first and foremost ideal of AMRKHMWST is the pursuit of KHEMETIC knowledge. The primary goal of each God and Goddess is the attainment of Khemetic knowledge and a college education if possible at the time. Each member has an obligation to continually maintain sound knowledge of self, including surrounding schools of thought. For example Dr. Ben, Ashra Kwesi, and Dr. York, for knowledge is power. This is an obligation that he/she owes to his/her family, his/her Brothers & Sisters, the Fraternity, and him/herself. AMRKHMWST emphasizes scholarship and knowledge of self. Initiation into, and participation in the Fraternity is dependent upon maintaining self and being an upright citizen in your respected common-unity.

Fraternity

AMRKHMWST is not just another organization, it is a lifelong commitment. Each member should be thoroughly acquainted with all aspects of the Fraternity, both internationally and locally. During the New Member education period, each future Brother/Sister should strive to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the operations of the Fraternity, which are educate yourself, educate yourself, educate yourself and should not hesitate to seek additional information on all aspects of AMRKHMWST and Ancient Kemet. Once initiated, each member must make a commitment to AMRKHMWST, not just to his Chapter, but Internationally as well. The Chapters of the AMRKHMWST are only as strong as its members. Each Brother/Sister is expected to participate actively in Chapter government, finance, recruitment, and New Member education, throughout his time as a member.

Personal Conduct

AMRKHMWST is a Brotherhood of Gods and Goddess'. One of the basic tenets of AMRKHMWST is that we conduct ourselves in a respectful manner at all times. Members should be gentlemen and gentlewomen at all times, particularly in conduct, manners, dress, morals, and speech. Ungentlemanly activity should be avoided, so as not to bring shame to oneself, one’s Chapter, or AMRKHMWST. Keep in mind, you are a part of a large organization, therefore, everything you do reflects not only on you and your Chapter, but also on AMRKHMWST as a whole.

Financial Commitment

(This has yet to be structured)

Education

There has always been considerable discussion concerning the role of fraternities at institutions of higher learning. AMRKHMWST overstands that fraternities are an integral component of higher education, one of immeasurable value. Chapters of the Fraternity, located throughout the United Nomes of AMRKHMWST. The Chapter and its members should strive to live up to the ideals of the institution. Mutual cooperation and participation in the educational and cultural programs are the foundation of good common-unity relations.

Those of us with academic skills must come together - research, live, and teach the best nutritional and health principals now available. The raising of health of our people will decrease the present excessively high level of morbidity, anti-social acts, health impairment, and increase the overall level of spirituality, competitiveness, work capacity, creativity, and resistance to stress. Health is our number one means of rising above the handicaps that racism has imposed upon us. In fact, without it all of our educational, and activists efforts will fall very, very short of the mark.



We must also implement Spiritual and Self-betterment workshops based on the Spiritual technologies of Black civilizations, past and present (Kamit [Ancient Egypt], Sumer, Black India, Ancient Southern China, Ethiopia, Canaan, Yoruba, Bantu, etc.). Since we were stolen from Africa, and stripped of our culture, we have not had the opportunity to come together and rationally define our cultural identity. The vacuum, thus created, has been filled by one or another set of equally damaging western ideologies which as is quite evident have not helped the western world itself. All western nations, whether they are capitalists, socialists, or communists have accrued debts that they can never pay off, and are on an irreversible path of social decay due to drugs, environmental pollution, self inflicted illness, crime, false ideologies, etc. Since these are the logical conclusion of the cultural infrastructure of the western world, they feel that they are locked into forecasted doom. On the contrary, we have an entirely different cultural heritage that we can, and must fall back on. Not just to save ourselves, but through our example, to lead others to the way out. The 40th Hexagram of the I Ching states that if a man is serious about his own deliverance others will be influenced.



In the teaching of our history our purpose must be divorced from the western model of merely identifying the who, when, what, etc. Yes, it is important to know that the great founders of civilization "The Kamitian (Ancient Egyptians), Sumerians, Pre-Aryan India (Harappa, Mohenjo Daro), Ethiopians, Canaanites, Phoenicians, etc. were Black people. But such knowledge is of little value if we do not retrieve the actual spiritual techniques, and values that shaped the accomplishments of these societies, that we may implement them in our lives. Not that we built pyramids, but what meditation techniques led us to 'invent' engineering, architecture, geometry, etc. is the important issue. What spiritual skills kept the Kamitic people together as a nation for over 4000 years that they could achieve so stupendously? Once we know this, then we can come together and do something about the 300+ billion dollars a year we earn as a group; then we can come together with our brothers and sisters in Africa and share the skills and capital that we have with their skills and wealth of natural resources. And believe me, they are waiting for us with open arms and hearts.



Last, but not least, we must learn to fully recognize the true meaning of the often quoted maxim that "together we stand, apart we fall." No people who failed to identify a clear common goal, and pool their resources to its accomplishments got anywhere. Sadly to say, this is the image of the African American people. For the most part, we come together to protest, to exchange information, to "keep our culture alive" via cultural presentations, do some business networking, worship, but for the most part, our survival and flourishment is primarily a matter of individual concern, and effort. Most African Americans believe that their security lies in their earning ability, and therefore expended most of their time, and energy, individualistically, to this end. Few of us, the best educated included, realize that the chief means of wealth creation in the western world rests in the accessibility to the money that Federal banks create via the printing press, and commercial banks create "out of thin air". Since we will never have anything close to a meaningful accessibility to these funds, we must realize the great teachings of Jomo Kenyatta, "I am because we are." Our wealth is in each other. We must organize ourselves into communities! A people can only progress with the truths that its members have discovered. Otherwise, all the precious principals, brilliant ideas of economic possibilities, and family building, etc. will be no more than leaves scattered in the wind.



This is but a brief proposal as befits the present space, and occasion. It is served merely as an appetitive, in the hope that it will stimulate the appetite for our coming together to engage in the type of serious dialogue that rapidly progresses to commitment to action.



Peace and Blessings
