he circuit of

the base of our Great Pyramid (of Khufu in the Land of the Black Ones/Kemet) divided by twice its height produces the numerical value (3.14) for: Π Pi), the 16th symbol or letter in the so-called Greek Alphabet. The 16th symbol or letter in the English Alphabet is P. In the Supreme Alphabet of the GODS and EARTHS the 16th letter stands for POWER! Decades ago when Allah presented the Jewels of the Nation of Islam’s Problem No. 13 out of the PROBLEM BOOK to His young Five Percent (5%) many among the GODS and EARTHS, and on the outer perimeter (in society, in general) were not aware of the significant degree of power that Allah had bequeathed unto His students. Those ten numbers and twenty-six letters were/are a very sacred, valuable tool similar to the Masons Geometry and the learned, elders (of the Ancient Oracles of Wisdom and Light in East Asia, otherwise known as Africa ) who utilized the mathematical science of gematria¹ to codify their various scientific experiments, formulations and technology. We live in a time wherein although the learned among us know and understand the usage of such science it, along with other higher degrees of knowledge, to a large extent, are still mystified by TV programs such as the Discovery Channel, et cetera, who would rather give credit to our Inter-Galactic Star Brethren (whom they choose to call Aliens) for the design and creation of the pyramids, ziggurats, sphinx, Grand Lodge of Luxor, et cetera, instead of bearing witness that the Original, Black Man of Asia (Planet Earth) is the Master Architect Who designed and constructed these wonders of the world!

"In the 1st Dynasty of Kemet the King donned a red fez for a crown with an emblem of a bee or hornet on that fez; and he ruled from a palace known as the Red House. The red was for the Sun; and the bee was symbolic of the code of work of raising food like a bee does honey. The bee stinger emblem was a sign of this king’s mighty warriors. This particular King and his people existed in what is known as the Delta region of lower Kemet (Egypt)." ² Interesting The Bee is the title of the 16th Sura (Chapter) of the Holy Qur’an. And, the 16th degree of Lost Found Muslim Lesson No. 2 of the Nation of Islam reads as follows: 16. Who is the 5% of the Poor Part of the Planet Earth? ANS.- They are the poor, righteous Teachers, who do not believe in the teachings of the 10%; and are all-wise; and know who the Living God is; and Teach that the Living God is the Son of Man, the Supreme Being, the (Black Man) of Asia; And Teach Freedom, Justice and Equality to all the human family of the Planet Earth. Otherwise known as: Civilized People. Also are: Muslim and Muslim Sons.

October 10th, 2014 on the Gregorian calendar marked the fiftieth (50th) Anniversary of the Nation of GODS and EARTHS. The number fifty (50) is denoted, in 5% terms, by a Power [5] and a Cipher [0]. Starmel Allah, a rising literary star amidst the GODS and EARTHS, hailing like sleet from the Desert³, presents to you in this book: Volume II of The Righteous Way- The NoGE⁴ 50th Anniversary Jubilee Edition! This event was indeed an overwhelming, extraordinary one; because it was/is a celebration of a genuine generation of GODS (& Goddesses) who, against the odds pitted against them by the F.B.I.’s engineered counter-intelligence program (cointelpro) that put drugs and other goblins in our urban areas, this supreme generation rose up from the grave of ignorance and decadence to shine like diamonds!

Fifty (50) years ago Allah bequeathed The Supreme Treasure unto the Babies (Youth) of Mecca ⁵and the New York City tri-state area in the pure form of Supreme Mathematics, Supreme Alphabet⁶ and One Hundred and Twenty Lessons. And, with these Keys Allah commenced to remove the rusty locks that had our babies bound (for a one-way trip to hell)! By way of these life-giving teaching, whose inception started with Master Fard Muhammad raising up The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, the GODS and EARTHS have produced a culture that runs circles (circuits) around Satan and his limited way of life! Allah Manifested True and Living Super Heroes (and Heroines) for the whole wide world to see!

In this fantastically stimulating and motivational book you will get a real good glimpse of just what the big celebration was about back on the weekend of October 3–5, 2014, when GODS and EARTHS from various fields of endeavor, and different parts of the nation and globe convened in Mecca to celebrate the 50 NoGE! From the loins of the GODS and EARTHS have come not only some of very best who have ever done it in entertainment, but many others who have and continue their shine on in the realm of law, medicine, engineering, sociology, psychology, medicine, aerospace, culinary arts, construction management, clothing, sales, martial arts, education, military, politics, clairvoyance, et cetera!

Starmel Allah, in my humble opinion, is definitely one of those who has adhered to the Wise Words of the God Universal Shamgaudd Allah (May the Peace ad Blessings of Allah Be Upon Him) when he once wrote: If you are going to publish the Truth kick it all the way live, right and exact! Don’t make our job out here on the streets any harder than it already is; and don’t be afraid to ask the First Borns and Elders for guidance when you need it. Universal Shamgaudd reminded us on how Allah once admonished him with regards to his (then, back in the 1960s) ideas of how he would utilize his powers.

On October 7, 1985, amidst his P.O.W.E.R., At Last! Forever! Phenomenal lecture given at Madison Square Garden in midtown Manhattan, NY, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan specifically addressed his Five Percent brothers of the Five Percent Nation, and has always held the GODS and EARTHS in high regard! We now stand in a pivotal TIME wherein, By the Grace of Allah, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, with the help of many, including the GODS and EARTHS, has rebuilt the Nation of Islam; and the foundation of the Nation of GODS and EARTHS grows stronger and stronger on a daily basis. There is a wide, open field of growth and development out there for the wide awake, balanced man, woman and child!

So, just don’t browse through this book, looking to see if your name is in the shout outs and/or your picture is on one or more pages. Read and study this book, so that you can draw up the very best part from it. Always remember that, as Righteous people, we are to preserve the best part for ourselves.

INTRODUCTION

In Perspective

W

e are half

way through a century of studying, discussing, dialoging, arguing (for some), and living out the foundational teachings of Allah. While some have given their very lives in dedication to this culture since our year one, some have just began to take their first steps on this journey of self-actualization, community empowerment and universal consciousness. Supreme Mathematics and Supreme Alphabets were given as keys to understanding the knowledge and wisdom we call 120 Lessons. The thirst for knowledge caused some to use 120 as the foundational blueprint to our learning, while others used it to augment their personal rhetoric and prejudices. Some became scholars and experts of 120 Lessons, while others became detractors, settling on a partial understanding of its context. There are students who empowered themselves and others who’ve dropped out of this school of divine thought to become Five Percent flunkies. As decades went by, teenagers with knowledge of self started having families and with that, increased responsibilities. Those who found the balance between work and maintaining a family continued teaching their children who became the new generation of Gods and Earths. Moreover, each Five Percent was required to teach 9 students which would multiply to the explosive growth and development of a nation within a nation. Each year, however, the Five Percent have been faced with challenges to their history, leadership, and legitimacy. Each time, few of the qualified were able to rise and meet these challenges and become morally victorious in the face of opposition.

The 50th (Golden Jubilee) Anniversary is a significant point in time for the Five Percent Nation of Gods & Earths. As you will come to learn, we were not supposed to be here according to the plans of those who oppose righteousness. But Allah is the best of planners. He chose this name and made us equal to himself through righteous teachings. He took young people to task fifty-one years ago as he taught them the meaning of civilization, righteousness, the knowledge of himself, and the science of everything in life. By his example, He showed them love, peace and happiness. A little over a half century, many have come and many have gone. Some have gone astray from this way of life and some have returned to the essence. Many who have departed have given their opinions and critizisms from the sidelines, while some of us have rolled up our sleeves to just do the work. Those who are here today are those who "want" to be here. They are those who chose to be here. Generations from now, people will be able to look back at how far we’ve come and see the proof of our growth and development. This edition looks beyond the historical context of the lessons and calls for leadership in the Five Percent duty to teach what we know by example. This, of course, won’t be successful without personal and national change. This subject has proven to be too weighty to have simply been discussed on social media, therefore, a follow-up to the first edition of The Righteous Way was necessary to advance our mission of bringing light to the blind.

Allah’s teachings were revolutionary in that they came at a time when the public only knew about Black Muslims in the Nation of Islam. He came out of the Nation of Islam’s Temple #7 in Harlem, New York where the Messenger, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad’s teachings were taught under the leadership of Malcolm X (El Hajj Malik El Shabazz). The teachings at the time, were providing Black people, and Black men in particular, with a message. The message was preparing the way for God to make himself known as described in the book of Malachi chapter 3, verse 1. His understanding of the knowledge brought by Master Fard Muhammad through his Messenger, Hon. Elijah Muhammad was made clear to his Five Percenters 34 years after 1930. Between 1964 and 1969, Allah taught his Five Percenters much about the righteous way. After June 13, 1969, they proved their word was bonded to the teachings as they emerged on their own as Gods & Earths. The nation is comprised of a culturally diverse group of people from all walks of life. We aren’t bound by emotion. Rather, we are bound together by things that transcend emotions, by principles and laws, by ideals and truths found within the reasoning of science and mathematics. It’s important to keep these points in mind as you read through this book and the first edition. We are also bound by the integrity of the Living Word made plain to show and prove consistency of truth as a living reality.

If you are like most Americans and indeed like multitudes of people across the globe—the media are a fixture in your daily life. You may wake up to a radio show each morning or read a newspaper over breakfast or while commuting on a bus or train. You may watch televised news stories concerning the latest international or local crisis in the evening. You may receive real-time news updates on your cell phone, Internet news sites and blogs, or tune in to the 24-hour news channels available virtually everywhere. You may have also come across interviews, articles, essays and programs regarding this culture which may or may not have been accurate. There is no escaping that, as a citizen of the twenty-first century, you are inundated in a sea of news and information on a daily basis. Some of what the media offer you is meant to entertain, some is meant to inform, but increasingly the lines between the two have blurred. Somewhere within those blurred lines, the truth about this culture was skewed. We survived prejudice on many levels and each time we were victorious because we told the story according to how we lived it — the righteous way. Many have written about our past, however, this book will look into that past in order to envision the possibilities of our future.

CHAPTER 1

Now O’clock

W

hy are these

teachings relevant now? The conscious influence of the Five Percent culture on Hip-Hop has made it the most lucrative and impressionable cultures of our day. But the elements of knowledge and enlightenment are absent, with the exception of a few artists. Today’s generation is living in a transitional moment called now, and now is the time for this generation to grow in their knowledge.

Time is a measure of motion. Depending on how much research we have done on the "Asiatic Calendar," as it is referred to by Elijah Muhammad, we’ll see that it relates directly to our Earth’s Precessional Cycle and records history in astrological periods of approximately 2,000 years. This is the great clock of the universe — the Zodiac (Constellations our planet and Sun cycles around approximately every 25,920 years). Each age (or sign is a group of stars whose effect on the planet is based on the planet’s position) represents more or less 30 degrees of the cycle and 2,160 years of time. During this 2,160-span of time, the Zodiacal Sign identified by its position at the point of the vernal equinox is deemed the ruling sign under which people on Earth are affected philosophically, socially, and politically for the indicated period.

Many have spoken about the Age of Aquarius, but what is it? The Age of Aquarius is an astrological term denoting either the current or forthcoming astrological age, depending on the method of calculation. Aquarius comes from the Latin aquarius, literally water carrier, an adjective, pertaining to water. Water is likened unto wisdom (enlightenment, judgment, truth, and reason). Astrologers maintain that an astrological age is a product of the earth’s slow precessional rotation and lasts for 2,160 years, on average (1 degree every 72 years. 12 zodiac signs, 12 x 30 degrees each sign = 360 degrees. 30 degrees x 72 years = 2,160 years = 1 great month. 12 zodiac signs x 2,160 years per sign = 25,920 years). This correlates to the approximation given in our lesson that refers to the Original man renewing history every 25,000 years in relation to the Earth’s circumference.⁷ In a book entitled The Biggest Lie Ever Told, Malik H. Jabbar explains these astrological implications and provides approximate calculations for the Ages as follows:

PRECESSION MOVES WESTWARD THROUGH THE ZODIAC, THAT IS FROM THE THIRTIETH DEGREE OF A SIGN BACKWARD. THE BEGINNING OF THE 25,920 YEAR CYCLE RECOMMENCED 15,079 YEARS AGO (As of 1993 and assuming the 30th degree
