OFFERING TO THE SPIRIT OF MIDA MORATHI WA NAIROBI IDA DANIEL ROYAL BERK

October 25, 2003 Village of Nairobi aka East Palo Alto, California Year 2,000,034 of Gekoyo and Moombi after the big harvest. Prepared and performed by: Ser Seshs Ab Heter-Morathi Wa Natchez-Clifford M. Boxley aka Goboa Wa Arathi of the Gekoyo Religious Assembly.

"On the day before Malcolm’s Day (Kuzaliwa – May 19), 1969, the Morathi named the mountain little Kerenyaga and walked back through the hostile valley to the village of Nairobi. The Morathi met Goboa Wa Arathi in the middle of University Ave. and ordained him. He journeyed to Farrell Park and met Mida Wa Arathi and Njimo Wa Arathi under an oak tree. There he ordained them and gave them the chore to go forth and do the work of the Assembly in Nairobi and the world. The ordination was finalized by the consumption of honey beer." From the Writings of the Gekoyo Religious Assembly by Jomo Sandili Morathi Wa Nairobi-Edward R. Becks 1971. Pha-at Pha-at Pha-at (Cleansing of negative forces from area where libation will be offered) Enen Neter Eta Em Khepera Aungh (He/She God who comes/works in all ways). Anetch Hrak! Amen! Eta Em in Ausar! Tua En Aungh (The source of Life, we thank you for our Spiritual Life and Mida Morathi Wa Nairobi Ida Daniel Royal Berk Spiritual Life.) Anetch Hrak! Mut / Atef Ausar/Obatala! Eta Em! Tua en Amen (She/He Thanks for our share of eternal life (omnipresence). Using the ocean as an example of what all of God’s eternal life is, then She/He gives us a drop of the ocean of eternal life and the same for Ida. Anetch Hrak! Tehuti/Orunmila. Eta Em! Tua for our share of Neter’s wisdom and knowledge (omniscience) Using the ocean as an example of what all of God’s wisdom and knowledge is, then a drop is our share and the same for Ida. Anetch Hrak! Sheker/Babaluaiye. Eta Em! Tua for our share of Neter’s power to be and do all things (omnipotence) Using the ocean as an example of all of God’s power to be and do all things, then a drop is our share and same for Ida. Thus, our True God/Goddess Self and Ida’s True Goddess Self is made in the image and likeness of Neter/God. The task of a successful journey on earth in the flesh is not how big a house you have or the kind of car you drive or the position you have in corporate amerika or how much money or political pull you have, but a successful journey in life is to: Know Thy Self----Be Thy Self or identify with that part of our being that is "God" Vs our human person. Mida Morathi Wa Nairobi Ida Daniel Royal Berk relentlessly did the spiritual work on the path of spiritual uplifting seeking to know and be her True Goddess Self. Anetch Hrak! Maat/Olulun! Eta Em! Tua for the Divine Spiritual faculty of Neter’s/God’s law. Our intuitive sense of Truth---Justice---Balance---Order----Harmony—Hetep or Peace. Anetch Hrak! HeruKhuti/Ogun! Eta Em! Tua for the Divine Spiritual faculty of Neter’s/God’s justice. To gain without transgressing upon others and wish upon our persons the kind of punishment we wish upon others for transgressing against our persons. (Justice is a two-sided sword you use against others and then you must also use against your own person) Anetch Hrak! Heru/Shango! Eta Em! Tua for the Divine Spiritual faculty of Neter’s/God’s Will. Our freedom to chose to be our True Self at the expense of our mundane person. Thus is the process for being saved from the hell of our emotions, desires, likes and dislikes and etc. (Neter/God provided each of our Spirit with a free will, the freedom to chose to do the work of Amen the God-Source of all things in whose likeness all humans are made via Ausar/Obatala (omnipresence), Tehuti/Orunmila (omniscience) and Seker(t)/Babaluaiye (omnipotence) or chose to let our emotions, desires, likes and dislikes and etc. (our mundane Intellect/logistical thinking) = Sebek/Elegbra or Satan in the western world, lead our behavior on earth [get ye satan behind us and follow] is how this Ancient African wisdom came to the western world). Other words our Spirit was sent to this Divine Earth with Our Savior already built inside of us. There is no need for some other named Savior external of our Spiritual Being who died to save us. The death or the man died that takes place on the cross is our emotions, desires, likes and dislikes and etc. (our mundane Intellect/logistical thinking) = Sebek/Elegbra or Satan in the western world) that we must use our Will to kill by living Truth at the Cross-roads of life adversities. That’s how the Light/Krst is obtained and our Spirit evolved to yoga with its Higher True Self Neter/God Being that we are. Anetch Hrak! Het Heru/Oshun! Eta Em! Tua for the Divine Spiritual faculty of Neter’s/God’s imagination. To visualize the deeds of our Honored Ancestors and to be creative in all that we do. Tua for a healthy vehicle/body for the Ra Force or Life Force to dwell. This is the part of our Spirit the Greeks referred to as the Goddess of Love. And the mundane westerners refer to as thank goodness it’s Friday. This part our Spirit governs the reproductive system and is the source of our creativity and visualization. Some of us are sent to this Earth with our Creative Faculty more advanced than others. But we all have the same creative ability. Only we have to work hard at being as creative as some others seem to be naturally. This part of Mida Morathi Wa Nairobi Ida Daniel Royal Berk, (the body) is what the Spirit has departed from, but her Spirit lives on forever as Ausar/Obatala if it has been uplifted while on Earth in her vehicle so as to be her True Self. Anetch Hrak! Sebek/Elegbra! Eta Em! Tua for the Divine Spiritual faculty of Neter’s/God’s intellect, but combing it with the correct wisdom and knowledge of Neter/God leading to opening the way to becoming our True Self Ausar/Obatala which is eternal life. Mundane logical information and facts are not on their own Truth, Wisdom and Knowledge. No books, intellect, mundane science or information is Wisdom and Knowledge. Wisdom and Knowledge comes from the Intuitive Part of Our Spirit Tehuti/Orunmila (Omniscience). Only when our mundane intellect is yoked to our Divine Intellect do Truth, Wisdom and Knowledge exist. Unevolved man/woman cannot lead us Spiritually because it’s a case of the blind leading the blind. Anetch Hrak! Auset/Yemaya! Eta Em! Tua for the Divine Spiritual Faculty of Neter’s/God’s memory. To recall the deeds of our Honored Ancestors. Tua for gestation of our physical persons. Tua for the gestation of the physical person we all knew well and some not so well, Mida Morathi Wa Nairobi Ida Daniel Royal Berk. Tua for gestation of our Will. Tua for nurturing of our Will. Tua for mediumistic trance to reprogram our spirit to live truth at the crossroads of life’s adversities. Tua for your role model of dedication to your husband Ausar/Obatala, when all the others Gods ran away from the evil brother Set/Elegbra. (Mother/woman dedication to serve, protect her children, nurse, nurture, educate of children and devotion to her husband. The western world called this part of our Spirit Mary, the Mother of the Savior. Some religions couldn’t’ deal with the woman and just assigned her a minor role. Nothing living in the Universe (one verse) comes unless through the Feminine side of Being. This is why Afrikans before the invasions of Arabs and Europeans had equality of man and woman and did not allow women (watery creative energy) to be doing the hard work required of men (hot projective energy). The c Creator Mother of the nation is also the nurturer and educator of the nation. Anetch Hrak! Geb/Oyo! Eta Em! Tua for this Divine Earth as a platform for trail and error of life, testing our willingness to live truth at the crossroads of life’s adversities, thereby gaining the Light/Krst to return Our Ra Force back to it’s source Amen. (No man/woman shall enter the kingdom of heaven without knowing the Light/Krst or Spiritual transformation over our mundane persons) Tua for the plant and mineral kingdoms with which to maintain our life and energies our Life force. (Note the animal kingdom is not included. Neter/God provided a digestive system and teeth for all things that eat to eat things naturally) Anetch Hrak! Shepsu/Ogungun! Eta Em! Tua for living the life of truth while here on this Divine Earth in the flesh. Thereby gaining the Light/Krst to now serve as Intermediaries between Neter/God and man/woman. (Our guiding Angels Ancestors). Mida Morathi Wa Nairobi Ida Daniel Royal Berk has come to join the ranks of our Honored Ancestors. Jason and Tosia, grandchildren, relatives, love ones and friends seek her Spirit for continued guidance. Uplift her Spirit by not forgetting to make offerings. Learn to turn off the noise of America and its shallow popular corrupting culture and tune into our Honored Ancestors and listen to their guidance. They are always seeking to get through to our Spirit and helps along the way in this life on Earth. Call out some of our Ancestors now as you offer libation: Ashe! Ashe!
