Ancient Naming Ceremonies Return

What Is In An Afrikan Indigo Name?


Sba Nuta Beqsu Amen-Ra El, Priestess and DirectorKandaki-Ma of the Amen Par Ankh (APA) leads an Annual AfRaKaN Indigo KRST -Seed Blessings and KMT Destiny Naming Ceremony on the Vernal Equinox, with Amen Par Ankh and Amen Ankh Akademy, A.C.E. Green STEAM , Shuli Community. The Director outlines the importance of taking on an Indigo AfRaKaN name.


   


Hetepu, (Peace be unto you)! I first want to give honor to our oldest Ancient Sheps (Ancestors) who dwell with us to this day. Our oldest people were the Ancient Twa/Khoisan- Gatherer Hunters, who first appeared at the Mountain of the Moon, the Cradle of Ankh (life,) at the Lake source of the Nile. Our Ancient peoples used Hekas, monosyllabic utterances, as sounds of power! These were the oldest people on the planet, who still remain with us to this day. They spoke the ancient sounds of power to reflect on the forces of nature. I give honor and gratitude to The trinity representing the All of creation; the Neteru, (Universal Natural Forces) Aku (Laws and Principals) and Sheps (Ancestars) that dwell within our DNA of Body, Mind, and Soul. We are never alone. Our Neteru are the dynamic aspects and Elemental Powers of the Forces of the Yoniverse and Nature that support our lives.

I call out the names from the many names of the forces and laws in the Yoniverse. I call out the name of MA the all-encompassing Yoniverse, Nu, the Primordial Waters, Nut, The Celestial Sky, Tefnut, the Atmosphere. Ra, the light of Enlightenment, Geb, the force and dynamics of the Earth that support our lives and Amen, the Sacred Hidden Potential Power and Essence of the Yoniverse.



Our Aku are the Dynamic Principals and laws of the Universe. Ankh is our mother wombs of life. She is the principal of Eternal life and the vortex to living power. The Djed is the electromagnetic force of creation. Khepera, The principal of Transformation, Resurrection and the manifestation of the hidden dynamics of the Universe. Tehuti, the power of knowledge, Ma'at, the principles of Justice, Balance, Reciprocity, and the 42 Virtuous Laws. Also, the Trinity of Family love and life- Auset, the first Mother of Immaculate Conception, the Nurturing, eternal love, healing and support of life and family. She is the mirror of the Moon. She is the epitome of the Virtuous Woman who was blessed to have the first Immaculate conception of Heru the warrior, governor, and the force of will, of our being. Heru Vanquishes the death of Ausar the Earth Sovereign, of all things green and growing. He is our higher selves, our super consciousness, he represents abundance. I give honor to my High Priest and Engineer, Sasteh Meter Mosley of Amen Par Ankh.

The subject of "Our" names, Naming Ceremonies, and speaking our own languages are fundamental cores for empowering a nation. Most of us don’t think about our names, where we come from, or what our names mean, which in and of itself is a place for enlightenment and Healing. The fact that we take our names so lightly is not by chance and is not the way of our Ancient peoples. This is something we must restore in our efforts to reestablish a Green Nome society.
Our Names are really important to our collective culture, because names connect us to our past, our memories, our languages, our sounds of power, proverbs, genius, identity, and wisdom of Our-story vs "his-story." Names are given or earned by family members at birth, through the Oracles from an Afrikan Spiritual Healer, KMT Priest, or Shaman as a title in rites of passage ceremonial promotion. Our names reverberate our Destiny path. As we (Melanin Humans) look back and see where we came from and dig into our Ancient Ancestral roots, Speaking our names and using our languages, are fundamental to restoring our healing, and reconnecting us to our own cultural heritage.
http://amen-parankh.blogspot.com/2013/12/affirmation-initiation-to-kmt-name.html 

Our Names and our languages are connected to our reality. 

Connected to Hundreds of thousands of years of recorded history. Restoring and reuse of our languages is vital to reshape and define who we are as a people and as human beings. To have hundreds of millions of First Original people over hundreds of thousands of years, who have been renamed and erased, is a travesty and injustice.





The presence of Ancient African civilizations from the Nile Valley can be found all over the planet, throughout the 7 continents, from Africa to Europe, Asia, the Americas, Australia, the Islands, etc... Afrikans are the original indigo first peoples on the planet. We now have identified the Eve Gene, resting in the DNA of every Black Melanin Mother Matrix. All humans (Hue-Man) come from African DNA, and never the other way around. The Gatherer Hunter migrations in Central East Africa, of the Twa/Khoisan Matriarchal Societies,  spoke in monosyllabic Hekas, and are represented in icons representing elemental powers in the names: Ma, Nu, Ra, Shu, Nut, Geb, TefNut, etc., and Bes as an ambassador all over the planet. Bes is the protector of the family core. His image can be found on calendars, charts, stone monuments, totems, and as small carvings in burial chambers. Bes had wisdom and magic. He knew the lands, water, underground caverns, Forests and charted the stars.

Bes the Indigo Twa/Khoisan

Then began the travel of our Nubian Pastoral Cattle Herders, Fisherman, and Traders- also known as the Nation of the Shepherd Kings. These were the first "Cowboys!" It was the Nubians who opened and established trading routes and began to course the waterways to find food and resources. They were known as the Hebrews, the Tribes of Judah, The Israelites, and the Moors

Finally, we began to collect and store our seeds and animals, as farmers, craftsmen and built spiritual temples, educational institutions, in the Ausarian agricultural and trade kingdoms. These were Sedentary Patriarchal societies with vast libraries and Universities. You can still find the Ausarian and East Afrikan cultural remains from the Nile valley civilizations, all over the planet- In the languages, Spiritual Icons, beadwork, and burial customs, Mounds and Pyramids, Stone Work, paintings, etc. The First- Oldest human beings- in Europe, Asia, The Americas; Australia, the Islands; and of Course Africa, etc. were black-skinned, nappy haired peoples, who traveled all over the planet for millennia... Indigo/Black/Melanin People are the DNA foundation for ALL people of color! Yes, Native Americans have Afrikan DNA, Afrikan Quantum Bloodlines, and not the other way around.
African peoples have established great civilizations As Twa/Khoisan gatherer-hunters, Nubian Pastoral, and Ausarian Agricultural Farmers, on the 7 Continents, all over the planet, long before the presence of Caucasian Vikings, Latin/Columbus, or the Protestant/Pilgrims, etc., set foot out of Europe. We are the Geo Mound Builders. Our Presence is in the Olmec, Mayan, Fulsom, Natchez, and Eskimo-Aleut, Cherokee, Seminole, Chickasaw, Choctaw, and Creek who practiced the Akabalon ways and traditions.

Black skinned African peoples Established civilizations all over the planet. Everywhere on the planet, where there is a flourishing kingdom, you find remnants of the Ausarian way of life.

Our languages were the core of our powerful culture. Our Songs, Prayers, and Names are the Heka- Sounds of power that ties us to our collective consciousness and the utterances to Ma, our Yoniverse. 

 Yet in this western society, our names were missing and deliberately deleted by a harsh alien, Imperialist, colonial constructs. This WAR+J Cult (Western-Aryan-Roman +Jewish) virus cancerous system has been the greatest identity theft and pirate ring in his-story! We have lived in this Alien Kkorporatakrazy where everything in their worldview, was/is a commodity that has a price. Nothing was/is considered sacred. With their covetous nature, like a virus, these alien invaders stole, tortured, raped and destroyed Human lives, appropriating, desecrating, and decimating cultures, communities, Economies, Ecologic-animal systems, land, and resources. They formed their commercial companies and raised their military to enforce the destruction, waste, and over-consumption of whatever they surveyed. They invaded lands looking to expand their empires and migrate, for gold, diamonds, cheap workers, servants, and other resources. This plague actually took our Ancestors invading Asia, Africa, and the Americas, at different time periods over thousands of years.

Malcolm X rejects his US Government Name:



We have been and are still at war!

During the Trans-Atlantic Trade Wars of the 14th Century Aryan Aliens, raided, fought, and kidnapped our Peoples! Our people were abducted, right here in the Americas, until they worked us to death, in mass genocide. We were brought on ships from all over the American and African Diaspora, these aliens would imprison, then strip and rob our ancestors of everything they had, then brand our free sovereign people! Using searing-hot irons, they branded Melanin Peoples with the symbols and names of their trading commercial companies and agencies, seared into our skin,  then sold off like cattle. Men, Women, and Children received symbols like the French "Fleur de lis" or  numbers and letters like “I, M, X,” or  "T-L Ranch," "Property of Johnson plantation", Property of this factory or that shipping company, or personal property owner, etc.. The Fleur de lis is ironically a symbol of royalty in Ancient Afrika/Kemet.


The Bee was the precursor to the Fleur-de-lys. In Ancient KMT, The Bee represented the Queen Mother Matriarchy, which was the Royal Family in ancient Afrika/Akabalon. As the Queen would give birth to a firstborn prince, he would be titled Nsut Bity (Black Power)


Yet, our Ancestors would sometimes not even be given names -we were the N-word or “boy” and “gal,” like any stock animal. It was an incredible attack on our self-esteem, and identity of who we are so it would be difficult for us to even find ourselves, or for our loved ones to find us. If you look back and try to locate your family now, in family trees or records, you can’t even find them. It’s like we disappeared! Anthropologists and other historical scientists have always known of our presence all over the world, to be a fact. Yet, they are also historically, the main perpetrators for cover-ups and "white-washing" for fear of facing the shut down of their university grants, scholarships patrons, and sponsors. - (follow the money)... (Now you have Caucasian rapists attempting to claim "Native American" Ancestry, to control the narrative of Melanin people's presence in history, using Native American casino money) It's like a man rapes a woman- she has a child. Then the rapist returns to claim the child and the woman's cultural identity as his!

YET WE ARE HERE! WE ARE SURVIVORS! 

OUR ANCESTORS DNA LIVES IN US!


Having Your Own Original Names That Reflect Our Destiny Became an Offense

So now we are “Jones” and “Barbara” , “Jim” and “Judy,” with Sir-names of Smith, Davis, Johnson, Williams, McDaniels, etc. which are peculiar names for our people. So that we can’t even trace ourselves in history. This is something that our people as warriors, have been fighting and struggling with forever. Every time we use these names, we reflect a racist history of white supremacy and enslavement.
Having our own names in our own languages, became an offense. Often times a criminal offense. We were beaten and traumatized for calling out to our God and Ancestors for power, singing, speaking, reading or writing our own languages or using the Heka sounds to disrupt the toxic energy around us. Our wisdom, brilliance, magic, and genius were beaten and tortured out of us.  To hold on to your name is to hold on to your past, is to hold on to who we are, our culture, our collective Memory, Roots, Land origins, Wisdom, Power, and Identity as families and Human Beings.
One of the things that our captors had to do was erase our memory, as historical genocide and amnesia so that none would know who we were, or where to find us; and later, where to find us in history. Their very intent was to destroy our humanity and render us to a voiceless herded animal state, like cattle or a pet monkey. This is our Maafa trauma. We’ve had to face the debasement and slander of our cultural ways in the Americas, Europe, and Mama Afrika herself through colonialism. They used our Children. They snatched our children away from their mother's breast, separating their small and defenseless bodies from even nurturing and emotional ties. They forced our children into hog pens or boarding houses and forced them to deny our languages and cultures. To only speak enough rough simple English like a trained dog, to follow orders and serve. When they grew to become parents themselves, they learned to speak to their own offspring in the same manner. Our Babies were terrorized, tortured, starved, molested and raped as little children until they grew to despise themselves, despise all authority and their parents who were helpless to save them.
For a while, if you wanted to find yourself, you really didn’t want to be Native American, or Afrikan, because Indians were depicted as brutal, desperate and wild, in a barren landscape, and Afrika is thought of as this place where monkeys and wild people and savages live. (look at the cartoons and songs they fed our children years ago and now.) So we didn’t want to be associated with that. In many cases, we sacrificed our culture and willingly embraced the horde of European invasion. In many instances, Indigo people thought that being Hispanic or Latin, or Catholic would actually improve our status and chances for survival. As Our children were stripped and segregated from us, our own children, under peer pressure, in childcare centers, schools and under their alien religions, bible and churches, were drilled with degrading self-hate propaganda and made to feel ashamed and forced to deny their family and American and African cultures as evil. Decade after decade, we were taught to be ashamed of who we are and who our Ancestors were. This left our children vulnerable to crave our oppressor's culture consumer traps, as a Maafa Syndrome: of total identification with their abusers, with the hope of favor. We mirror, emulate, model, and conform to the mores and lifestyles of racist abusers, bullies, and colonizers, along with those who benefit from and glean privileges. They contort and radically change body and mind to strip themselves of their culture. Straightening hair, lightening skin, we think and speak in their language, we wear their western clothes, live in their rectangular housing constructs eat their toxic and diseased water and foods and devotedly practice their religions- oblivious of our own, only to compete for, go into debt slavery for, and create strife against each other- for "Shiny Things" and materialistic consumer addiction!
So we were corralled into following the western patriarchal systems, as the only systems we were permitted, and have been programmed into cults, to become Jehovah's Witness, Catholic, Apostolic, Baptist, Methodist Episcopalian, Hebrews, etc., or the “Asiatic Blackman” if you look at the Aryan based Islamic groups. We have become all of these "other" things. Yet, these are products of colonialism themselves! Terms like, “Puerto Ricans,” which ain’t nothing but a Spanish-speaking African, (Paul Mooney) is a reflection of how Indigo nations succumbed to embrace western influences and to despise our Ancient Ancestral origins. We'll say we're “part Italian” or anything other than our true nature. So, as we carry these foreign names, we segregated our minds from the brutality that was associated with them. This was something that made our names––our own identity––something that was hard to hold onto.

Dr. Amos Wilson: Blueprint for Black Power: https://blackaccessnetwork.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/blueprint-for-blackpower-lecture-by-dr-amos-wilson.pdf

Dr. Wilson asks some very pertinent questions, pertaining to the possession of an alien consciousness;
What language do we speak?
What Names do we call ourselves and respond to?
What foods do we eat?
What clothing do we wear?
What religion do we practice?- Can You Name ONE Afrikan God?










Our Original/Indigenous/Afrikan Names Have Powerful Meaning

Today we want to engage in being reborn in a new beginning for many of us. Like a new birth, it’s almost like being born again like in the church. "A People Perish From Lack of Knowledge" This is our collective knowledge of self.

We know that there is NO "race." 

Race was manufactured as a political construct for social control and class/economic status. Our society would fair better to completely remove race as a narrative, into our future. ALL HUMANs (Hue =Melanin/Color/pigmant +Ma =Foundation of the living Universe +N =Laws, and Principal Powers of the Universe) beings (people with natural melanin,) come from the ancient Afrikan continent, which is the foundation of All continents as Turtle Island before the contenental drift (See Great Year). Yes, Afrikan people, in their multiple varieties, are our oldest known Ancestry on the planet. The "Eve Gene is found in the DNA of every Black Melanin woman.

Yet, Caucasians are the exception. They are "Mankind," possessing a hybrid form of RH- blood that possesses fragments of RNA, that tie them to Neanderthals and Rhesus Apes. They may be extra Terrestrials from the Paladian star system. The Original Indigo Hunter-Gatherers were Melanin Afrikans- NOT Neanderthals. Our Hunter-Gatherers are the oldest humans that still exist to this day.  They were the Twa/Khoisan who were represented as Bes the Twa Man. The Twa/Khosan traveled the entire planet and established Civilizations. So, Caucasians were later crossbreds of Mankind, from Apes that only made their appearance on the planet around 10,000 years ago. A rare few possess, what is known as O Negative blood who rarely survive childbirth, because the blood of their fetus attacks the mother. The Caucasians are essentially Identity Thieves. Everything that Aryan Caucasians claim, own, or represent was stolen from Indigo Humans. for instance the Greeks are a stolen legacy of ancient Kametic Knowledge that was not vredited to their Predicessors.
The Indigo Moors, who conquered and governed Europe for almost 1000 years. broke the spell of Bes, the Curse of the Dark Ages, and the Flat Earth, which were able to contain the caucasoids into a small area in the north, for Aeons, where they were afraid to cross. During their government, the Moors restored civilization in Europe, and brought Wealth and Health.  African Knowledge of Science, Technology, Engineering, Fine and Industrial Arts, Agriculture, Mathematics, Hygiene, Philosophy and the Enlightenment of the Geo Planet terrestrial movement, using electromagnetics and the Stars for Nautical movement was a wealth of resources to establish civilizations all over the planet...


So how do we Re-Member our names of power and practice Our traditional ways of life if we were scattered from our historical origins?

One way is by sharing our Ancestral memories and traditions to instill our values and principles into our precious Children. Our naming ceremonies can be a powerful force, not only for our newborns but for ourselves as adults to acquire a name. It may be helpful for at least one family member, to participate in a DNA test. They can glean a cultural reference for the rest of the family. Yet, we must also re-gather our oral history, our languages, our anthropology,  between our families, on where our Ancestors lived before the Caucasian invasions. Many Native Americans have discovered that they can trace their languages, customs, and cultural mores, to Nubian, Hebrew and Arab influences from the eastern regions of Afrika.

 We are the Geo Mound Builders. Our Presence is in the Olmec, Mayan, and Eskimo-Aleut families and traditions. So, we can't assume that our DNA tells the whole story of our families or nations. Just like we can no longer assume a monolithic concept, that people of African Ancestry, only came to America, from Africa through the Trans- Atlantic wars and prisoner capture. We were abducted right here on the American land to be used as chattel. As Native Americans, we are not one lump group of people. We have a variety of genotypes and phenotypes; language groups, dialects, and cultural traditions that spread and are represented all over the American continent, over thousands of years. So, Mexicans, Jamaicans, Brazilians, Puerto Ricans, Choctaw, Lakota, Cherokee, Seminole, Alaskans, etc. are ALL Americans, from different regions of the continent. This is why there is NO "American Indian" DNA.
As a stream of consciousness, and Afrikan cultural similarities in different places, there were still,, all kinds of variations in customs in how namings occurred. In some places on the African continent, for example, an Infant was born with their placentas intact, they were named as soon as the umbilical cord drys and falls off. Some places, 7 or 8 days later, a person achieved a name. Sometimes a person would achieve one name and then, at eleven or twelve, or would get an adult name later on. Sometimes a person would even have a secret name so the enemies wouldn’t be able to locate that person by knowing the name. Just like we do now in our street organizations. 
Among the Akamba people of Tanzania, a child is named on the third day following their birth. Before the naming ceremony, the newborn is regarded as a spirit and not as a complete human being. A goat is slaughtered in appreciation of the ancestral spirits for the gift of a child and the fertility of the parents. The announcement of the newborn baby’s name by his or her grandmother or an elderly woman relative is the climax of the ceremony.
So there are variations of names and naming ceremonies. But one thing that is relatively common is that African names have meanings and that’s really important. In some places, names depend on the day one was born, the month or even the circumstances. For instance, my son was born prematurely, there’s a name for that. The name “born early”...”Mashombe”, from a language in Congo.




In the KMT societies, We went to the spiritual leaders of our communities for guidance and direction. 

We knew they had access to the Oracles of the Neteru, communed with the Aku (Light beings) and the Sheps (Ancestors) to direct our pathway to our purpose. We believe that Our Children have just arrived through the vortex of heaven, and our Elders are returning to the heavens...
And that’s one of the things that are relatively common about our cultural names, that the Spiritual leaders, grandparent or Elders often were the people who would choose our names. Names also were constructed––depending on how the person is born, how the person looks, whether it was a difficult birth, or things like this––these are the things that help to define what names are going to be.

Our Name Gives Us Something to Live Up To

So, names are important because they give us a mission. Words are Things, Words are alive. We find ourselves having to live up to or Name- Our Reputation. Our Actions not only reflected on our own character but that of our entire family and neighborhood.


Affirmation Initiation to a KMT Name

The Ancient Kemetic System is one of the oldest systems that remain intact, that ties back to our collective original peoples. The Ancient Kemetic system of acquiring a Name is a process of initiating the manipulation of the life-force with sounds of power and words of meaning. My Spiritual name is: NUTA BEQSU which means "heaven gives me balance." This is the development of Affirmation, then Visualization of my destiny. As anyone speaks my name, I will receive a program into my conscious spirit, to produce thought sequences to direct a course of action and as a way to achieve success in my life journey. Visualization is thought converted into a pleasurable visual image(s) to achieve a goal and/or purpose. As KMT initiates, we connect with Divine Power to guide and direct our pathways. As my name is spoken to me, I receive unity of direction in my life. My name reflects my Destiny. Nu, (the Primordial Waters) Nut,(The Heavens) Ta- (the heavenly land) Beqsu (beckons me to balance)... So, the sight Sound, vision, Aromas, and colors associated with my name will give me guidance in my destiny and pathway.

Our Sacred knowledge has always come from within us. We must transform past the Will-he-lynch syndrome of racism in this western society. We need our youth to rise up and reconnect with the wisdom of our elders, sages and ancestors. Dr. Amos Wilson suggested 5 self-evaluations: What language do you speak? What names do you Answer to? What foods do you eat? What clothes do you wear? Can you name one God from our original cultural systems? Amen Par Ankh means sacred sanctuary of living. We practice the ancient spiritual system, known as KMT. We are a family-based G-Nome Growing Foods and connecting with the cosmos. We are Teachers, and growers.

Chief Priest and King



Pharaoh (/ˈfɛəroʊ/, US also /ˈfeɪ.roʊ/;[3] Coptic: ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ Pǝrro) is the title used for the monarchs of ancient Egypt from the annexation of Kemet by the Roman Empire in 30 BCE, although the term "pharaoh" was not used in the contemporary time for a ruler until Merneptah, c. 1210 BCE. During the Nineteenth dynasty, "Shekhem Ur Shekhem" ("Chief Priest and King") was the term used most frequently until the middle of the Eighteenth Dynasty. 

In the early dynasties, ancient Kemet kings used to have up to three titles: the Herus, the Sage and Bee (nswt-bjtj), and "Shekhem Ur Shekhem" ("Chief Priest and King". The Golden Heru as well as the nomen and prenomen titles were added later.

In KMT society, Spirituality was central to everyday life. One of the roles of the "Shekhem Ur Shekhem" ("Chief Priest and King") was as an intermediary between the deities and the people. The Shekhem was thus deputized for the deities in a role that was both civil and religious administrator. The Shekhem owned all of the lands in Khemet, enacted laws, collected taxes, and defended Khemet from invaders as the commander-in-chief of the army. Spiritually, the Shekhem officiated over religious ceremonies and chose the sites of new temples. The Shekhem was responsible for maintaining Maat (mꜣꜥt), or cosmic justice, order, balance, and reciprocity. A part of this included going to war when necessary to defend the country or attacking others when it was believed that this would contribute to Maat, such as to reobtain resources.



During the early days prior to the unification of Upper and Lower Khemet, the Deshret or the "Red Crown", was a representation of the kingdom of Lower Khemet, while the Hedjet, the "White Crown", was worn by the kings of the kingdom of Upper Khemet. After the unification of both kingdoms into one united Kemet, the Pschent, the combination of both the red and white crowns was the official crown of kings. With time, new headdresses were introduced during different dynasties such as the Khat, Nemes, Atef, Hemhem crown, and Khepresh. At times, it was depicted that a combination of these headdresses or crowns would be worn together.

Here is a sample of the  literature of the ancient Kemet. 

"Athers to Ausar. 
Let thy heart rest in Semt-Amenta * be content, for thy son Heru is established on thy throne. Thou art crowned lord of Tatu ^ and ruler in Abydos.^ 
Through thee the world flourisheth in triumph before the power of Nebertcher. 
He leadeth on that which is and that which is not yet, in his name of* Taherstanef. He toweth along the earth by Maat ^ in his name of Seker ; 
He is exceedingly mighty and most terrible in his name of * Ausar ; 
He endureth for ever and ever in his name of * Un-Nefer. 
Homage to thee, O Kingof kings. Lord of lords. Prince of princes, 
Who from the womb of Nut hast ruled the world and Amenta. 
Thy body is like a bright and shining metal, 
thy head is of azure blue, Tefnut- The Sky-goddess.   and Green like Geb The Earth-god. 
You are hereditary chief of the gods. You dwell in the town of Busiris on the Delta. • Abydos in Upper Egypt. 
The Lord to the uttermost limit, Almighty God. 
You rest with Maat- The goddess of physical and moral law, and the personification of the conscience. 
THE BOOK OF THE DEAD 45 and the brilliance of the turquoise encircleth thee. O thou god of a million years, whose body pervadeth all things,whose face is beautiful in Ta-Tchesert, grant thou to the Ka of Ausar the scribe Ani, splendour in heaven, power upon earth, and triumph in the Other World. Grant that I may sail down to Tatu in the form of a living soul, and sail up to Abydos in the form of the Benu bird ;  that I may go in and come out without being stopped at the pylons of the Lords of the Other World. May there be given unto me bread-cakes in the house of coolness, and offerings of food in Anu and a homestead forever in Sekhet Aru, with wheat and barley therefore.
