A brief introduction from SbA Bonotchi:

Metaphysics, esoterica, and spirituality represent the "aAmu," the Euro-Asian, cultural descriptions of the nature of reality, and unfortunately, too many African scholars have adopted them as research paradigms to understand the meaning of mdu nTr ideas and concepts.

In this presentation, I examine many ideas promoted by some researchers of Kemetic Metaphysics and spirituality. I introduce the “tip-heseb,” The Correct Method, as a vital technical skill and tool for the study of mdu nTr by Afrikan-centered researchers. Afrikan-centered scholars Nana Cheikh Anta Diop Maat Khrew, Akh iqr n Ra, Nana Mut, Rkhty Amen, and Nana Baba, Theophile Obenga introduced the “tip-heseb,” The Correct Method, and its value to Afrikan researchers.

Nana Obenga states the value of the study of Kmt, by way of the voice, and language of the people: “Egyptian language (medu netjer) must be learned technically, because this language is the only key to understanding KMT from an intrinsic paradigm. Positive discussion about KMT is no longer sufficient if our aim is to advance the discipline with sound scholarship. In order for us to have a deep and exciting dialogue with KMT it is necessary for us to master the Egyptian language. This requirement is imperative, for without it we have no beginning.”
