If you know for fact that you have Native American blood, then why aren't you studying Native American spirituality?
You are reaching...
Re: your Brother what are talking about?
I am referring to a Spiritual inheritance-e.g If my mother was an Oshun priestess, that title is automatically passed to me..when I become of age I will be automatically initiated into Oshun.
I suspect you have more of a spiritual inheritance from your Native American lineage than you do Kemet...i don't know...just WILD guess on my part.
Why would you take on the added burden of trying to figure why your brother was born into this world to suffer and die from a horrible disease?
A rhetorical question, you don't have to answer.
His life was his life, he has the answers now wherever he is...
your life is your life...so
My studies of native american ancestry led me into African studies. I'm under the impression that the Pheonicians originally seeded the native Americans. As with anything though, I could be completely wrong. I grew up alongside blacks, not native americans, I spent my childhood in predominantly black neighborhoods, not on reservations. I guess in my adulthood the choice of friends and who I perceive as fellow countrymen and women, is just an extension of the same.
As for my brother...his life and death so heavily influenced my mother, and mine own seeking of answers, it is a question I choose to ask. Though he knows the answers, I do not. And if somewhere within me, the answers are there, I choose to draw them into waking consciousness. For whatever beautiful reason, his death has brought an end to the disease for other children, my Mom saw to that, they did it together. It's a long story, and given it was a rhetorical question, I'll leave it at that.
As for bloodlines, again I choose to seek source, not stop-over. I can't put into words why, I lack the vocabulary to even form that question.
The native American cosmologies are very similar to that of Kemet. I see religion as one continuuous thread of a fabric, that when unravelled will lead to the origin, and originating point of what has been woven. If that origin is Africa, it is there I go seeking. I don't expect to be welcomed, but I do expect myself to be unafraid.[/QUOTE
I just find it odd that you would skip over your immediate native American Ancestors and go way over to kemet...
If you want to find out the answer to your brother's life and death then just say that, you are doing it for you not him..he is at peace...

Lol That's understandable, but I have not skipped them over, I seek to understand the cosmology in context, and not as it stands alone.
As for my brother, it is a....... It is entangled. To watch someone die with these questions, seeking out your eyes for the answer, it is not for me to call them my answers or my questions. It is only for me to desire to seek in love, it is all entangled, always has been.
