History

Prof. Paul Nathaniel Johnson

This is a photograph of the Fahamme Ra Rasool as he looked in 1943. He did not claim to be the Prophet of Allah, but the Prophet of Amun-Ra, and the Ro-baitu (successor of the gods of Ham and the House of Ra). The First and Only Person living or dead to ever make such a claim. He says he has no quarrel with Moslems, Jews, or Christians, for his is an entirely different world, yet on friendly terms with all. His teachings and philosophy had made for him a host of friends and enemies as well (out of jealousy). Islam simply means Isis, El, Amun. Moslem means, There are many of the Isis-El-Amuns. Israel simply means Isis, Ra, and El. Christ simply means, Ka, Ra, Isis. And that is the key to all religions. And they are MY and YOUR ANCESTORS. The incarnated Son of the Sun and the Re-Incarnation of the gods of Khem.

FAHAMME

Fahamme is known by its traditional and authentic complete title, Fahamme or Divine Understanding. Since the year 1919, Fahamme has been the foundation of Culture and Civilization here in the United States for African-Americans who seek the path of their Divine Ancestors. By our name Fahamme, we represent the Ancient Kemites, perpetuating the true traditions of our Forefathers and Foremothers, who graced the Holy Land of Ancient Africa thousands of years past to the modern day.

OUR ESOTERIC TRADITIONS

The history of Fahamme can be divided both traditionally and chronologically. Our traditional interpretation demonstrates that the mystical movement of the Ra Rasool, Paul Nathaniel Johnson, the Prophet of Amun-Ra - which later evolved into Fahamme - had its roots in the mystery traditions, philosophy, and myths of Ancient Kemit, from the beginning of time. However, the Fahamme Movement is eclectic and uniquely draws upon the diverse mystical traditions of Ancient Africa, such as Symbology, Numerology, Realization of Self or Astrological Readings, and the Sacred Science of the Greater and Lesser Mysteries of the Tree of Life Readings.

The result is a consolidation of mystical principles which focus on a purposeful direction for the future, that being the enlightenment of humanity by way of establishing a mystical study of the Immense Name of the Living God (Fahamme), and all the gods and goddesses, sons of God, and daughters of God, and saints and prophets.

OUR CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY

Fahamme is primarily an Eastern phenomenon, and its chronological history can be traced to Africa in Pre-Dynastic times. The popularization of the movement came about in 1919, in St. Louis, Missouri, with the publication of the Holy Fahamme Gospel in 1943, and the Holy Book of Ham Al-Khem in 1968. These publications established the methodology and purpose of Fahamme that is still used today, though adapted to correspond to the needs of modern society.

Since 1919, there has been a consistent existence and perpetuation of Fahamme. However, its structure has often been elusive because in past various conditions and persecutions necessitated that limited public awareness of the existence of Fahamme be maintained. A more detailed history is available through our teachings and publications.

FAHAMME TODAY

Today, Fahamme is a thriving, non-profit, Civil and Divine Cultural Organization. Fahamme is above mere education; it is the knowledge of all men and all civilizations, and a knowledge of the ways of God and Man. Fahamme is the out-pouring of the Great Solar Intelligence behind which is the Spirit of God. Our membership consists of men and women here in the United States who embody the highest Will Power for Humanity; a world where men and women can come together in peace.

FAHAMME: A UNIVERSITY OF LIFE

As a student of Fahamme, you'll belong to a movement for the betterment of humanity in the world today. Our organization resembles a University in that we provide several Temples of study, teachings structured to build upon each other, and degrees of Civil and Divine attainment. Yet, unlike most schools of Understanding, we recognize and develop the dual aspects of human nature, namely the spiritual and material. In this way we truly are a University of Life, for life itself is not composed of only one or the other, but is harmoniously balanced between the two.
