What is Moorish Rite Freemasonry?

Start with a salute to Noble Drew Ali, then step aboard a vessel where character is the cargo and unity is the lifeline. We sit down with leaders and members of the Moorish Rite to unpack why this Freemasonic body embraces a nautical framework—seamanship, roles, and discipline—to shape better men, stronger families, and resilient communities. The sea isn’t just a metaphor; it’s a method. Ships demand clarity, accountability, and courage, and those same traits carry us through courts, careers, and conflict.

We dive into what makes this rite distinctive: a living schedule of instruction and service that runs six nights a week. Monday’s health and wellness sessions focus on diet and longevity. Tuesday alternates between a lively cultural forum with our sisters and a mindset series that treats the mind as the ultimate frontier. Wednesday goes deep on ritual instruction, Thursday opens the doors for public Q&A, and Friday features safety training born during the pandemic plus the Legend of Ariam Abith Bey—an allegory our guests call “the allegory of our time.” Sunday anchors the journey with the Asiatic degree, a compass for identity and origin that helps members set coordinates for life.

You’ll hear personal stories of transformation: overcoming shyness, learning to communicate with poise, and replacing procrastination with action by honoring obligations. The message is blunt and liberating—sacred isn’t secret. Keys belong with caretakers who will use them to uplift, not manipulate. That ethic explains the Rite’s embrace of accessible online meetings, open community programs, and a code that holds every brother accountable, from new sailor to seasoned navigator. If you’re drawn to practical wisdom, cultural grounding, and a clear path to service, this conversation offers a chart and a wind.

SPEAKER_05: 0:12

What's going on, everybody out there? It's Ron Brown, LMT, the People's Fitness Professional. And I got the brothers in the building. Ancient Free Morris Writer. Finally got it right that time. Peace to y'all, everybody in the building, Brother Aquet, Brother Yehoshi, Alem El Day, Brother Sanchez, Brother Gil, Al Saeed. Peace to y'all. And today is the Prophet's birthday. Before we go into it, let's uh give our respects to the Prophet, Prophet Nobu Ju Ali, before we go into it. I don't know if anybody wants to say anything on that.

SPEAKER_04: 0:55

Sure, sure. We always, always, brother uh round, brother, brother uh Brown, and as Dr. Hazel would always do, we always give respect to the prophets and um and to the prophets of God. And certainly today, uh January 8th, um Prophet Nobu Jur Ali. And um it's it's an honor. It's an honor to have the kind of humility to give credit to where credit is due. So we recognize and respect our luminaries and we cleanse ourselves of uh jealousies and discord when it comes to our luminaries. And we respect them. And this is why it was always of the utmost importance, especially to Dr. Hazel, that we would give acknowledgement to the prophets of God. And it takes the heart of a man, not just a more to do that. That's my piece on that. And there are a lot of tie-ins that we can get into one day, another meeting, uh, you know, numerology tie-ins um that could only be prescribed by the uh creator. Gotcha. Gotcha. Anyone else?

SPEAKER_05: 2:29

Anyone else? Nope. All right, all right. Uh, we got it, we got the people in the chat. We got uh black on black, always always in the check-in. Peace to you, peace to everybody. Uh don't forget the prophet's birthday in the chat, y'all. What's going on? Oh, yeah, all praises due to noble Drew Ali. Uh Ketz, the sister Kaba, what's going on? I haven't seen you on the chat in a while. Where you been, sister? Where you been, sister? Anyway, let's go straight into it. Uh, what is Morris right? What is Morris right? Anyone want to answer that to set it off?

SPEAKER_04: 3:08

Sure, that that puts the um uh right now the that part of the discussion, uh brother round. Brother, why am I saying round? I'm looking at your name and I'm seeing the R the uh one one word, uh, but it's Ron Brown condensed. Uh yeah, but Brother Brown, um yeah, you know, it's a it's a broad question, and I want to uh streamline it uh as much as we can for this venue. Um it is uh Freemasonry set to a Moorish cultural agenda. And so within that definition would require someone to know at least something uh about Freemasonry. If they could know something about Freemasonry, then they could you know surmise some other things, but to be um uh a little bit more clearer. Uh I find myself inclined with that uh question to talk about what uh the Moore's right is today. Uh right, uh not so much the his history, and we will occasionally uh go over that, how the Moore's right comes to be. Um, but uh I'm more uh inclined and I'm more excited sometimes to mention what the Moore's right does today, how it helps members, how it helps people, uh, what it stands for, and what we do as a Masonic body. And um, you know, I I trust that we will get those inquiries, you know, what what do you uh uh do as an organization? What do you do now? What are you doing in real time? Right? Not so much just in historic reference, but what are you doing today in real time? And that is perhaps for me the most important, and that is uh something of which I am uh uh the most proud of.

SPEAKER_05: 5:27

Gotcha. Okay, okay. Anyone else want to uh talk about it, expound, or add on? Or are you guys waiting for questions?

SPEAKER_02: 5:40

Peace, Mother Girl, do you want to go?

SPEAKER_08: 5:49

Uh peace, beloved. Um just expanding, you know, with what brother um Supreme Grand Commander, Brother Allen, was saying, on what has uh what is more strike Freemasonry? You know, and uh going a little bit into our general info, you know, we just found online, we can find that uh the Moore Strait, it's it's basically the newest um organization or Freemasonic organization out there, you know. Now having that in mind, you know, that we've been, or we are the the youngest organization out there, we have gone through a lot, you know, and now that uh work that we've been going through, you know, to get the Moorish right to where it is now has basically uh been part of who what Moorish right has done for us nowadays, you know, today as individuals. Like uh I will speak, you know, on personally on my side, like how has the Moorish right um uh uh uh held me as an individual? You know, um let's say I'll I I'll remember my beginnings, and I'll be a shy person, barely speak, uh barely know how to communicate probably, you know, uh insecurities, so on and so forth. And uh we talk about character building, you know, and basically you can't correct something if you are not aware of what has to be corrected.

SPEAKER_01: 7:39

Right.

SPEAKER_05: 7:40

Say that again, say that again, brother.

SPEAKER_08: 7:43

We can't correct something if we're not aware of what has to be corrected, right? So let's say um if we we speak about Freemasonry being basically a personal journey, you know, because of course there has been brothers initiated and walked the path before me, but some of them are here, some of them are not. You know, so now it's basically how we shaped our character. So, how has the Moorish right helped me? Well, I have learned how to communicate, you know, um, and I don't want to go too much into it, but a lot of uh people think that being a Freemason, it's power. It's uh you can stand in front of a judge and get away with whatever you want, you know, and it's not that. It's basically how you communicate when you're in front of a judge that gets you gain a certain status, you know, or let's say a step ahead.

SPEAKER_05: 8:44

Right. More respect, more respect. I just want to add on to that. I just not to cut you off, pardon me.

SPEAKER_08: 8:50

Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_05: 8:51

Prophet said to go into these places and speak in an intelligent tone, and they will help you pretty much.

SPEAKER_08: 8:59

Yes, sir. So, you know, understanding those principles, then we learn that, which also uh rhetoric, you know, it's one of those those sciences. And of course, the uh, I was saying, we would we're dragging a lot of defects, if we want to call it that way, you know, and unfortunately, a lot of or one of our loads, if you want to call it that uh that way, it's that we procrastinate a lot. I procrastinate a lot, you know. So now I'm not gonna disclose any secrets. You can find this question and answer in any book in uh uh Barns and Nobles or even on Google, you know, but what makes you uh uh a Freemason and is the fulfillment of your obligations? That's right. What does that mean? Stop procrastinating. You know, if you we in the Moorish right say that every thought leads to action. So if you thought about it, it ain't going anywhere, you're not going anywhere if you're not putting your hands on it. So that's what I can add to what uh brother Ali Malde had said, you know, of what the Moorish Right has uh helped me as an individual. You know, my brothers might have their own intake, but as far as myself, that's what I can share with you brothers, as far as uh what is Moore's Right Freemasonry and how has that helped me? That's peace, and I yield the floor.

SPEAKER_02: 10:33

That's peace. Thank you, Brother Kittle. Uh brother Sanchez, do you want to get that? Then we'll hear from Brother Martin, then Brother Yahoshi.

SPEAKER_07: 10:43

Peace, greeting, brother. Um, Mr. Ron. Peace, peace. Glad to um to be here, sir. Um, what is most right? Well, um, my grandmother just mentioned the uh eloquently, you know, um this is the new ride in uh a couple of years, quite a hundred of years. Um but um we are certainly here um or as or avatar Dr. Clee for his obey mentioned um this is uh the re-emergence of the ancient framework right. This is not something the way of uh teachings is not something that was just created, it came from ancient times. And individually, uh you hear my grandmaster, it helped you tremendously. Um but um the ancient frameworks right uh was um the remercif the re-emergence of ancient frameworks right was for uh to create um you know better persons later within our communities, you know, top race of our communities, but that like my grandmaster had just mentioned doesn't or won't go anywhere if you're not moving anywhere. They try to start with us, uh personal uh journalists and I that's my peace. I show the floor.

SPEAKER_03: 12:22

All right, thank you, thank you, brother Sanchez, brother Martin Peace on alert, and uh peace to the L Day, peace, Grandmaster Gill, peace grandmaster, um, peace to you, Grandmaster Sanchez, and uh peace to you, brother uh Ron Brown.

SPEAKER_05: 12:44

Peace, brother, peace, peace.

SPEAKER_03: 12:47

Um yeah, the Morris right is an amazing Masonic body because the character of it is nautical, you know, and um it guides young people, older people, and even people, you know, in the eldest to a new way of thinking in a paradigm. You know, for me when I came in, it you know, I was in college and um I was looking for something that was pure and something that you know was still cultural at the same time as a Moore, and uh I needed that brotherhood and fraternity, and I also wanted to understand how to be a better man. So for me, the Moore Strike helped me do that. It was an uh extension of a spiritual tool that I could apply. Then, you know, I learned about Angelo Suleiman and the Avatar, and I was like, wow, I didn't even know that black people even sailed, you know, quote unquote black people, and then realizing that you know we're not even black, so you know, I went through a lot of those transitions and um the more strike helped me align with those things. It gave me a moral compass. And so I pray that it gives each brother the same thing so that they can strive to be Asiatics and understand what it means to carry on a legacy, you know, because we're striving to be better men. And we're using Freemasonry to do that, and we're also helping our culture, our family, our wives, you know, our community. So we're striving for excellence through character building. And uh, when you're on the streets and you see people in different, you know, characteristics of states, you would like to want to give them something, uh implement for the character to build their conduct. I believe um that the Morris right does that, it gives brothers the uh the tools of their uh charge to uh uplift their community. And you know, that's my piece.

SPEAKER_05: 14:50

Oh man, beautiful, brother. You know, um I don't know if you you know anyone wants to go, but I just wanted to say that uh this group, which what's most impressive about this group is that um uh the the man the the um how can I say um the manner in which you conduct yourselves it's like regal, regal, respectful, uh like like real men. And uh and uh you know peaceful. And uh I respect it. You know, I've been in different groups and different places, not taking anything from anyone else, no disrespect. I'm just saying with this group here, I can I can feel the peace and see the peace. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02: 15:42

Yes, sir. Well, we'll we'll hear from our brother, brother Prince Yahoshi, who is, you know, I would say one of our newest members, but also I feel one of our oldest members. Peace, brother Yahoshi.

SPEAKER_04: 15:53

And uh thank you, brother uh Ron Brown, uh, for brother Yehoshi goes, for that uh very wholesome compliment. It's a great compliment, and um we don't get that all the time. So I'm gonna especially thank you for that. Thank you, thank you, sir, brother Yoshi.

SPEAKER_06: 16:16

Peace. Um you want me to expound? You know, I don't call in the sugar coat, so I'm gonna give it the whole wipe down. But I want to give honor to our supreme navigator, our avatar, our supreme grand commander, our sailors and brother Ron Brown. I'll lie you a bar. I'll give honor to our prophet, nobody, peace, love, and light. Um, what is the more rights? Um it's my right. Just like the prophet said, it's a birthright, it's masonry, it's something that belongs to us, it belongs to you. Once you step into the waters, you understand. A lot of people are scared of masonry, you know, even though I lead told us don't speak down on other organizations. Like you said, when you go in a courtroom or any society or room, you talk in an intelligent tone, these people will talk back to you nice. You know, you can't um disrespect a brother with intelligence. Because you know, he understands how you're talking, how you say it, and when you say it, and what you're talking about. So when we're dealing with masonry, ones get caught up like we submit to the Albions or England. We don't because masonry belongs to the Moors, period. We civilize the entire world. So all these keys belong to us, we're the melodated people. So you know, I sat in a lot of mystery schools, the 5% nation. I was in the nation of Islam on the student island X, the MST of A out of the Khalifa territory with Cosmo L out of LA, Temple 101, Victor Tel L, Bayon Bay, Pleasant Bay, etc. etc. I sat amongst many great teachers. I just refuse to get into the discord of disunity because that's in the Moore's Holy Quran with chapter 5045. Um, when you deal with masonry, the more is righteous to miss in peace to the Moore's society, the ones people want to walk away from. Even a prophet teaching us how to build characteristics amongst ourselves, how to be a man, how to take care of your family. Don't deal with your brother's woman, X, Y, Z. You know, I don't want to deal with any brothers that don't carry their self with mortals or prescible because I have children. Come on. If you're your lower self or your devilish ways, come on, they hold you accountable. And with the Moore's rights, they hold every brother accountable. Whether you're new or you've been here a thousand years, you still would be held accountable to the Moore's Code. Point blank, period. And that's why I'm our Supreme Grand Commander. I seen it at first hand. He don't play no games. You violate a law, you're not moving in the Moore's code. The real brothers are gonna stand behind you, and justice will be served. So when one says this is a new organization, it's re-established. This organization been here since the beginning of time. Masonry, everybody walks in masonry. Look at your schools being built, your building, the architects, the degrees. Every time you walk outside, your birth certificate, the numbers. When you get to the Supreme Mathematics, you're still dealing with masonry because you're building on mathematics, you're building on numbers, orchitech, everything has to deal with numbers, social security, number, birth certificate, number, bank account, numbers. Everything's dealing with numbers. But the thing is, how do you count your numbers daily of your mortals, your principles, and how you conduct yourself as a man? And our job is to uplift falling humanity. That's not just us as Moors. Our job is to uplift the Albians, the Chinese, the Indians, everybody. It's just uplift all the humanity. The Moore's right is your birthright. It's not a secret. It's sacred. I mean, and everybody don't need sacred information because they might manipulate people and misuse it. You give the wrong person a key to your house, you might come home and everything is missing. You give the right thing to the people, the right person the key to your house, you come home, you can clean it up, gotta look in mice, you know. So you gotta pay attention to who you give these keys to because these keys unlock a lot of doors. Well, you know, it changed my life. I'm growing as a man, as a brother, I mean, as a father, as a brother, part of different organizations, you know. So I see a lot of light in it. You know what I mean? I don't let once in my light. You know, that's my peace.

SPEAKER_05: 20:57

Yeah, that's what it's all about. Brothers make you know, holding each other accountable. And uh in this society, we definitely need that for sure.

SPEAKER_02: 21:07

Sir, um, you know, brother Ron, I'll I'll go now and then you know, we'll go back to our Supreme Grand Commander, but I do want to um uh give honor to our avatar, Dr. Cliffordy Hazel Bay, and his wife, Sister Bessie Hazell. Um, I want to uh give honor to our Supreme Grand Commander, my grandmaster, Grandmaster Will, Grandmaster Sanchez, uh Al Saeed, Brother Martin, um, Prince Jehoshi, and you, Brother Ron Brown, and all of our uh just uh guests and viewers, live viewers tonight, people in the chat, everybody who supports NYP talk. Also, if you're here, make sure you hit the like, right? Subscribe, donate, hit the chat, get it in the algorithm. So um I will say briefly, beloved, in in hitting on what you heard earlier, and just really two main principal points in what you've heard or or what you've been witnessing in terms of dealing with the Anch Jeffrey Moorish right. And when you ask the question, what is Moorish right masonry? You know, as Lde said, you know, this is gonna be a good uh springboard into further conversations because now you're talking about Moorish right masonry. Well, now you got to get into well, what is a right? You know, you hear about the Scottish right, you hear about the York right, Lithuanian right, Swedish right. I mean, they're uh there are a mirate of rights. You know, what makes a right a right? And how how could the illustrious Dr. D Cli Dr. E. Clifford E. Hazel Bey resurrect a sleeping right? Okay, and as as it's uh spoken about in uh uh literature that we do have online um at our website, uh-morriswright.org, you will see uh a book called What is Morris Right Freemasonry, written by our Supreme Grand Commander. And that's a good starting point for uh more wholesome understanding. But as we get into uh these principles, you know, the principle of education and instruction is vital.

SPEAKER_05: 23:33

Okay, why do you say that, brother?

SPEAKER_02: 23:35

It's vital because through education, through knowledge, that is the one thing that no one can ever take from you. And it is the only thing that's gonna allow you to elevate from sphere to sphere of understanding, and thereby, as was said earlier, allow you to interact with others, and they be able to do what? Meet you on the level. Exactly, they'll be able to understand you, you'll be able to understand them. So instruction is is vital. We need instruction, and not just any instruction, we need real instruction based on a spiritual principle. Because when we talk about what makes a right a right, that's getting into what we base our practice on, and that is uh a big foundation part is instruction. That's why the Morris right now we meet six out of seven nights a week.

SPEAKER_05: 24:35

Wait, ho. Wait a minute. This is okay. So you meet six out of seven days a week.

SPEAKER_02: 24:51

So we use the online venue, right? The internet age, because the Morris Wright was emerged, right, and re-emerged in what 2001. The dawn of what the information age. So this thing ain't new to us, Morris Wright. We've been Zoom meeting, you know, lodge meetings for over a decade, way before COVID hit, to where the whole world had to go and Freemasonry had to go, where we were laughed at. How could you go online? But this is the vision of Dr. Hazel.

SPEAKER_04: 25:31

That's right.

SPEAKER_02: 25:32

So instruction is vital. So not saying we have lodge meetings every night, we do have instruction meetings on our rituals and our degrees, but we have different venues, different platforms that are all based around Morris Wright instruction. So we we meet, we connect, we have to connect. That has to be our focus because if that isn't our focus, what else is not bashing anything else, not bashing entertainment and the everyday life, but what do what do we have? What do we get? So instruction, education is vital. And the second one, and and this is getting directly to, as brother Martin mentioned earlier, our symbolism of the ancient free Morris right, because our character is primarily nautical, it's architectural as well, but it is nautical, it's a Freemasonic nautical character. So now preacher this, brother Ron, and brother Yahoo, Prince, Brother Prince Yahoshi mentioned this. Look at that symbolism of a ship. Think about that symbolism of a vessel, a sailing vessel that we are constructing. Think about a Masonic rite being resurrected, not on Scottish soil, not on English soil, but right here, homegrown U.S. soil by a moor. And in our last interview, I've been in the knowledge 30 years. Well, Dr. Hazel been building it 30 years in the quarries, doing the research, making sure that it's hermetically sealed so people can say what they want. But and I went, but I wanted to mention this, you know, and for our gamers in our newer generation, you know, you know, in gaming, you know, you have uh you get your character, you know, you invest in it. I think about 2K, you get them all the points, he starts building up his thing, you're trying to get him to what remember back in the day, the 99 player because you know he what he comes in and and knocking everything down, right? But since I joined the Morris Wright brother Ron back in 2012, I feel like we got a 99 player in Freemasonry, and I always said it, I'll put it up against anything. And we don't say trust us or take what we say, do your research.

SPEAKER_05: 28:08

Now I want to go back to the the the meeting six days a week. So now how long are your meetings? If you can answer that, I don't know if that's sacred.

SPEAKER_02: 28:17

Yeah, no, no, that's that's not sacred, and actually, you know, that preempt, you know, we are actually in 2026 opening a few of those meetings up to the public. So on Monday nights, we meet and we have a health and wellness seminar. And uh the meetings usually go for a couple of hours. You know, we try to stay on task with that, but we have a health and wellness seminar that we host on Zoom that's open to the public on Monday nights. On Tuesday nights, um, we have a a we we we we uh we swap every other week. So one week we have a meeting uh called uh uh uh uh Chopsui with our sisters from the OMS. And the next Tuesday we have the reset uh by our AFMR. Wednesdays we have a uh uh ritual instruction night, which we won't speak about all the way. Uh Thursday night, we also have a meeting. Uh and on Tuesday, those meetings are open to the public as well. Thursday night, uh, we have a meeting where we have our meet and greets where we meet on Zoom and we bring in the public to ask questions, raise concerns, meet them so they can see we are flesh and blood, you know, as we practice our Freemasonry brick and mortar, you know, we meet in lodge. So we have our meet and greets on Thursdays, and as well, we have because with a with a with a right, you have to have, you know, your your allegory. You have to have your legend. So we have our legend of Arima Biff Day, which is the official allegory of the ancient free moors right, which is also available online, and that meeting we will be opening to the public as well. So that's Thursday night, and then on Friday nights, we have a meeting called Saba, Safety Afloat Begins Ashore, and that's all about safety. And that meeting came about uh with the inspiration of my grandmaster that's online here, Grandmaster Gill, back in COVID. When everything hit and everything shut down, we needed something to hold us together and meet on a consistent basis and talk about safety. So that emerged from there, and then on Sunday nights we have another uh internal ritual meeting.

SPEAKER_05: 30:40

So the meetings are there, and and it and for the the what it does is sort of like a recharge and a reset and a re-interpret because you need that you need like we we don't understand like like dealing with this society, not only just this decide society, just the earth, period.

SPEAKER_02: 31:02

Come on, brother. I was gonna say just dealing in you, you know how much information is thrown at you on a daily basis. 90 don't even come to your awareness because you filter it out, right? Go outside tomorrow and start listening for the birds. Look, listen for the wind. How often do we listen to these things that we just blurt out? Just like in education, how often do we not see and misunderstand stories, information that we don't even realize that it may not even be factual? Right. And what we base our life on it, right?

SPEAKER_05: 31:43

Ready to kill over it.

SPEAKER_02: 31:45

So, in honor to the prophet, you know, noble jewali, peace be upon him, and all of the Moors who follow the prophet, you know, we honor our prophets, we have to honor each other. That's right. That's that's the spirituality we get into here. So going to my symbolism and our end here of the ship. So now we have navigators, we have sailors, right? Not only constructing a vessel, but ready to sail it. And what is the primary, primary, primary prerogative when we're on sea, brother, brother Brown? What do we all have to hold that is more vital than anything else?

SPEAKER_05: 32:21

At sea, you're saying at sea, uh what's more vital than anything?

SPEAKER_02: 32:27

Um, more vital than the very water that we drink.

SPEAKER_05: 32:32

Ah, you got me on that one.

SPEAKER_02: 32:34

Our unity.

SPEAKER_05: 32:36

Okay.

SPEAKER_02: 32:38

We have to look at be out looking out for each other. We have to do our jobs, and we have to because what what's the number one threat to a vessel in sealing? Mutiny.

SPEAKER_05: 32:49

I see. Now you're talking that you're talking that that sea talks, he so in Morris right.

SPEAKER_02: 32:57

You have structure. You you have a structure, you have a supreme grand commander, you have a code, you have brothers that submit to what structure. Because it's not BS. Because why we were taught when you're dealing with people, you're dealing with God's people.

SPEAKER_04: 33:13

That's right. That's right.

unknown: 33:16

Keep that.

SPEAKER_02: 33:17

We're not here to to to to play around, right? As was said, we're here to learn, we're here to study, and we're here to work on ourselves. My grandmaster can talk about the polishing process. How you have to have that thing right in in woodworking and working with the craft, you have to have that that that piece of wood right from the beginning, right, grandmaster? Because at the end, when you're ready to throw the shine on it, you're ready to put it close enough, put it out there to the world. And now what? All imperfections, all imperfections.

SPEAKER_05: 33:51

Now, I just want to say this. Uh, this uh uh Kufu, uh, I think I know the brother from Facebook. Um uh ancient free Moorish right is not mainstream masonry, our masonry is Moorish as well as nautical and architectural. Now, when you say nautical, right? When you start building on the ship, I'm not even thinking about a ship. You get what I'm saying? You you said unity, and then when you brothers say sale, I'm like, oh, okay, sale. I never really understood where it was really coming from, but now I'm getting it, man. This is this is dope, right?

SPEAKER_02: 34:32

Could pick up from there and take us, take us, take us in.

SPEAKER_04: 34:37

Uh well, yeah, we are a um, right? You you all know that Freemasonry is uh predicated upon the stone building guilds of uh England, right? And that there are in light both rights um within uh the Frasonic universe, and uh most you know treat the symbolic subject of uh architectural uh stone building. Ancient free morals right uh we treat the symbolic um uh profession of uh seamanship, sailing, nautical science, right? And that's key. And as brother uh my brother Kufa was saying, that we are nautical as well as um architectural because you have to build a ship before you can put it to sea.

SPEAKER_05: 35:50

Talk to him, let's go.

SPEAKER_04: 35:52

And when we look at the um uh uh let's just deal with the ancient um uh uh uh subject of of shipbuilding. Well, we know that we built uh ships that were as uh magnificent as some of the structures that you see today, as some of the skyscrapers that we marvel at, or we marveled at uh some of the ships the same way, right? And um so with with that, I I I want to add this in. Um within traditional Freemasonry, uh there's a reverence for uh scripture, right? Uh certain scripture. And um there's a very popular scripture from Ecclesiastes, and um I'm not going to disclose that, what that is. However, within the Morse Rite, um we have a scripture from Ecclesiastes as well, that uh we have reverence for. And the reason I'm bringing this up is because uh some of our brethren here uh they have mentioned that uh you know we're not new, we're re-established, uh, we've uh re-emerged. So I'm gonna read to you um a uh a reverent scripture that we use, and um I want my Morris right uh brethren to take note of this as well. And so I'm gonna share uh that scripture from Ecclesiastes that is of utmost importance and I'm gonna read it, um and then you'll see what I'm talking about. This is from Ecclesiastes. One generation passes away, and another generation comes, but the earth abides forever. The sun also rises, and the sun also sets, and it hastens to the place from where it rose. The wind goes towards the south and turns about unto the north, it whirls continuously, and the wind returns again according to its circuits. All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full until the place from which the rivers have come and they return again. We revere that to say the morse, right, is a part of the natural evolution of earth. The earth evolves, the people evolve. No one can argue this, no one can deny this, right? And we we see it all the time, and we look forward to that evolvement, and we prize that evolvement, even the way we prize technology and how we're utilizing this technological tool, which may not have been available to us 30 years ago, and what does that mean, right? That the creator is still creating the navigator, whom we refer to uh the creator as the supreme navigator. Of the universe is still navigating. Traditionally, we refer to God as the grand architect of the universe. Well, the architect is still dining. Brother Yoshiwa was talking about the upliftment of fallen humanity. Well, that's necessary. Why? Because humanity is a work in progress. Sometimes, unfortunately, we tend to think that within our dispensation of time, that we are the crop. Not fully understanding that we are continuously evolving. So we revere this scripture because a generation passes away and another generation comes. The wind is one wind. But we can refer to it as the north, south, east wind, so forth. There's a cyclical nature to this. The ancient Free Morse right, my brother Ron, a good brother, is a part of this evolvement, and it's a part of this evolvement within Freemasonry, right? Now, we do have naysayers, I think, as some brethren put forth. We do have people that want to criticize us and so forth, right? Well, Ashley, to just give a nautical joke, that's water off of a duck's back, okay? Because here's the thing, right? And we need to be clear, we're not concerned about winning those people over. Or kowtowing to um them, right? If you know what I mean. We're not concerned about that. Or uh satisfying the whims of someone who is against us. As far as we are concerned, they've chosen their side, they've chosen their destiny and their path, and we've chosen ours. Right? Our voices, and I'm talking about our brethren here, and some members you don't see, our teaching is not wasted on those people. They're not our constituents because there are people who will hear and listen, and who do hear and are listening, and there are people who are speaking ill of us, and they will continue to do that. We don't concern ourselves with them, we're not looking to win uh anybody over, and as you had said in another meeting, brother Ron, you know, we're not uh religion, right? So we're not necessarily trying to convert anyone, but we have to have a voice, right? We must have a presence, and we must teach. And you've got some dynamic teachers right here in this panel, right here. We have some other of our teachers who are who are fabulous, and they're not here, but everybody here uh on this panel now has been or continues to be a teacher within the structure of the ancient free morse right. So we go with the uh divine destiny that we have, and and we certainly believe in that because if you don't believe in yourself, no one will believe in you, and no one can consign you to inferiority without your compliance, so in that sense, we are different, and um, I absolutely love uh brother brown, the people, um, and yourself included, and and that's not to say that you're gonna be a member today or tomorrow, that would be fantastic, but Dr. Hazel always talked about the people the Marshright would attract, if it were no more than just people who would be sympathizers or would have a wholesome respect and appreciation for what was happening. Now, early on, we used to get so much criticism. I'm talking about stuff like death threats, right? It's like, for what? Just because we, you know, got a Masonic right here, you know, clandestine, bogus, full of crap, you know, everything, right? We used to get that all the time. But I can tell you something that uh pushed me and encouraged me. Uh brother Ron, it was first of all, uh the infrequent actually compliments like that you gave us at the start of the show. Things like that go a long way, man. And look, a brother took me aside when all that stuff was going on, right? When all the hatchets were being thrown, the knives would be in thrown, the insults and everything. And he said, Brother Alim, I want you to know. He said, Brother, you got people on the sidelines that are caring for you, they're chairing for the ancient free morse right. And he says, I just want you to know that we're here. And I was able to take that, it came from one person, and sometimes that's all it takes. It came from one person. He said, I want you to know that we're here, brother. You know, we're here, we're just not making a whole lot of noise. So let the people make their noise, and as the brothers were telling you here, right? You said you feel the peace, you feel the unity. And brother Arquette was so right, right? You get out at sea, you look to your left, you look to the right, you look behind you, you look before you, you can't see no sign of land because land is not your safety. Right? The same substance that you're using to sail on could also sink your ship and become your enemy, and the sea, which you love, can become your graveyard. So we only have each other. You know, think about that scenario. Now, it's symbolic for Marshright Freemasons today, but just because it's a symbol doesn't mean that the substance of it is not real. So we need each other, we need that harmony, we need that peace. And uh Brother Yehosha was talking about mathematics. Uh a crew, a ship crew is all about mathematics. Why? Because for every crew member there's a place, and for every place there's a crew member, and that's the way numbers are, and those numbers have to have cohesion. So the helmsman he has to do his job. The cook has to do his job, the brother in the crow's nest has to do his job, and all of these jobs become essential and important. A lot of times we want to find ways that we can't connect to one another. Damn. Right? We're looking for that most of the time. You know, the ego gets big and all of this, you know. Excuse my language, I know you've got a respectable audience here, you know, but you go back and you get your ass at C, where it matters and everything matters, and that person matters to you, and the person who does that job, it matters to you, you know. Now you're gonna be a little bit more humbled. You're gonna be a little bit more humble, right? Because and and people need to know about this, right? So because you're on land, let's look at it symbolically, you think you're safe and you think you're okay. But maybe not, because there is a scripture that says when you were at sea and you were endangered, you made your prayers to God sincere. But when we got you out of that situation and you got on land, then you forgot the favor of your creator. But do you not think that we can swallow you up on land the same way we could have swallowed you up on the sea? That's scripture. So there are lessons to learn, and there's a lot of teaching here, but we do go six days a week, you know.

SPEAKER_05: 49:48

And how how long are meetings? Uh and and uh does anyone attend every meeting?

SPEAKER_04: 49:54

Oh my goodness. Um, the meetings can go between two and three hours sometimes. It just depends on, you know, the uh the atmosphere of conversation, you know, the meetings can, and a lot of times I'm like, we need to end the meeting because people got to get up and go to work tomorrow and all of that. But you love the enthusiasm, right? And um, you know, we we will use those uh uh six days, you know. Sometimes um, you know, we might squeeze in another day in there somewhere, but yeah, beloved, you know, brother, uh they don't go um, you know, forever. Like as brother Arquette said, you know, we have a health and wellness class on Monday. And what is that about? That's about diet, right? And you know, looking to eat the right foods and you know how diet works, and you know, counting calories and proteins versus carbohydrates. Very, very informative and uh and a fantastic teacher in that and brother Louise. Tuesday we have uh Chopsui, which is a uh a brainstorm that's created by our OMS, that's the sisters, right? And that is where we just discuss random topics. We spin a wheel and someone offers a topic. It doesn't matter, it could be UFOs, it could be anything, right? It could be what's on the other side of the room, and we will all discuss it peacefully and intellectually, and we get a whole lot from that. Um, and we also have on Tuesdays alternately uh with Chopsui, we have something called the reset. And the reset explores the mind, right? And that's hosted by Brother Cyrus, and you know Brother Cyrus, and explores the mind, and some people still say that the mind is the greatest frontier ever. And why this is so important about the mind, brother Ron, and you know, right? People can make you feel inferior, bad, hurt, or whatever, and it all starts in the mind. So the mind, we have to learn how to reject the things that are not conducive for the mind. Wednesday, we have the Worldship uh university, we call it, which deals exclusively with our degrees and our degree system. And that's that's that's hosted by whom we call the master teacher, uh Brother Abdullah. And uh it's generally a two-hour uh class, and that just deals with our degree work, the Freemasonic work that everybody thinks is you know secret and all of that. But I appreciate a few of you brothers said it's not so much that it's secret, but it's but it's sacred. And then we have our self-defense arts and fitness exercise, SAFE, acronymically, which is uh hosted by Sister Audrey. And that is for women to stay in shape, to learn martial arts, to um uh uh learn about self-defense and all of that. Now, um just ironically, um that uh uh uh uh SAFE, that acronym, uh this this existed before there was a um a video that Sister Audrey showed me, and I think it was Cardi B, and um, and it was a song called Safe. And in the song, she gets shot in the head, right? Um, in the video at least. And Sister Audrey was sharing, man, you know how how ironic that is. You can't make that kind of but uh self-defense arts and fitness exercise was just the acronym for that, and so we thought that that was right on time. Um, and then we have uh the meet and greet, you know, which is um hosted by uh brother Arkad and Brother Uh Jalid, and we just entertain questions from uh people who might be interested, they may or may not be interested, and um that's also uh conducive for us, uh brother Ron. And we have the coffee break, uh, which I host, and that's about learning how to teach, at least within the framework of the ancient Free Mars Rite, learning how to teach our lessons, how to teach our degrees, and all of that. And uh there's a lot of supplemental information about just basic learning generally and a wholesome approach to learning and having an appreciation for new knowledge. And then uh we have the legend of Arium of Beth Bay. Everybody has heard of the legend of Hiram of Beth, you know, the Masonic legend of Hiram of Beth. Well, this is our special legend, and that's hosted by uh brother Roy Brand L. And that's on Fridays. And our look, I'm gonna say this to whoever's listening or whatever, take it or leave it, right? Like I said, we we're not chasing after you. Take it or leave it. Dr. Hayes L has called the legend of Ariam of Beth Bey the allegory of our times. Now, if the Hiram legend was the legend, was the allegory of those times, great. It's a great thing because why? It helped to uplift the English people, and it did. You need to study that sometimes, right? There was a time that they thought that that allegory was real history, and it wasn't, it was just an allegory. However, but if it helped them and it helped to uplift them, right, then it was effective. Dr. Hazel has called the legend of Aaron Abith Bay the allegory of our times. And if you get into it, you will see what is going on right now in the world, is what the allegory is about. And then also, too, on Friday, we have uh Safety Afloat Begins Ashore. Um, and it's that's hosted by uh Sister Audrey, probably for like another week or so, and then we're gonna get another host there. And this was created by Brother Gill, who's on the line now, and this came with COVID. And when when the COVID crisis hit, uh Brother Gill was like, hey, you know what? And I love the way the brother brought this to me because he was like saying, as an organization, we need to do something where we can at least help people. See how we think in the Moors, right? Where we can at least help people. You know, we should open it up to everybody and we can offer information about staying safe, about uh uh um getting uh masks. I think one time we got so many uh face masks, you know, and gave them out, you know, that kind of stuff. Um and Brother Gill, you know, brought this up and he said, you know, we this is something that we need. He wouldn't take no for an answer. It's not like anybody was gonna tell him no, but he wouldn't take no for an answer. He says, we need this, man. We we we need to to to to to contribute to this, to people being safe, safe. He says, real or imagined, right? Because you know people would say with COVID, it's not real, it's all made up. But Gil was like, you know what? We still have to do something. And we created uh Saba. And uh Brother Gill uh inspired that. And then finally, on uh Saturdays, we have the National OSFA and the Goddess Roundtable. That is the OMS, uh, Brother Ron. That's exclusively the uh women, yeah, and uh we have Sister Audrey and Sister Carl uh uh spearhead uh those initiatives, and it's about um it's what the sisters uh study, and um the goddess round table is kind of styled after the knights of the round table, you know, the King Arthur uh legend and the um national osla uh comes together and the sisters discuss um that um their teaching. Uh, I would leave that for the sisters. We don't have any on right now. And then Sunday we have the Asiatic uh Conference of Light, and um that's hosted by Brother Adir. We have Brother Martin on, and Brother Martin taught that uh class at one time, and that deals with our first degree, which is the Asiatic degree. That's the first degree in the ancient free Moore's right degree system, and uh degree system, yes, sir. You know, our we have our deck degrees, which are four degrees, and then we have degrees uh beyond that. So deck degrees, we're sailing, all right. Come on, brother.

SPEAKER_05: 59:28

All right, I'm giving it, yes, sir.

SPEAKER_04: 59:33

That's it. And the first one is the Asiatic degree, and the Asiatic orientates you to what an Asiatic is, you know, what Asiatic means, uh, the whole thing. And I know you're you're you're very familiar with that uh word as well. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Yes, sir, and that's and that's our um, you know, and uh yeah, so we give. We give uh a respect to Prophet Nokajuali. Um, as we often say, you know, he's he's the the the the the one who came and uh uh t tall a a population uh of people, hey, you are Asiatic, right? Uh and especially at a time when uh it was determined that the worst crime of all human crimes was that any given people have lost the knowledge about themselves and who they are. Which is the worst crime in the history, I'll just say, of worldly criminality. Is that a people would not know who they are. And that is a broad demographic, right? A broad demographic, you know, going through North South uh uh uh America all through uh Mexico, uh interior, United States, over uh the African continent and and uh Europe and all of that. Um broad demographic of people not having the knowledge of who they who they are. And so we give credit, and Dr. Hizo will always give credit to Prophet Nobu Ju Ali, and I and I do say, I mean the peace and the blessings of the creator be upon him, for being someone who comes and says, Look, uh you know, this is who you are, you know, indigenously and originally. This is who you are, and so we recognize that he did his part. And um we'll defend that if we have to, you know, we're not the Lord Science Temple, but we don't want you messing about the prophet of Israel, nor any prophet of God, right, who who was sent by God to help up the fall of humanity. So you don't want to get in an argument with us about that. So, you know, you know, be good, behave, you know, if you don't have anything good to say about someone, then don't say anything bad about them. So, you know, I I I trust uh brother that you know um gave you some insight into that, um, into those uh six days, sometimes seven. Um but yeah, it's um it's a lot, but you know, um well, but it's wholesome and people uh uh enjoy it. And for your question, not everybody all the time makes every meeting, you know. Sometimes they can, sometimes they can't. Um, but uh the meetings are always uh you know decently populated. And if we've just got two people or three people, you know, we still meet because everybody is important, and everybody matters.

SPEAKER_05: 1:03:22

Anybody want to add on before we cut out any any last words? Um that was a great build. That was a great uh I like that. Was a setup for other uh uh uh builds. I I I totally now it it understand I understand it. Now I want to kind of like the next podcast go into this. I want to go on the uh on the dock, on the ship. I want to go out to sea and I want I want to build the I want to build the boat with y'all. Let's let's let's do that.

SPEAKER_08: 1:03:54

I want to tell.

SPEAKER_05: 1:03:58

Exactly, exactly. I want I want to I wanna I get the I get it, so now I want to experience it. You know what I'm saying? Yes, sir. You got that, brother. You got it because now now I'm ready. Now I'm ready to learn. Like uh it's it's based on sailing. That's that's that's that's crazy to me. Like, oh man, that's that's just that's that's crazy. That's phenomenal, man. That's just phenomenal right there. Um pardon me, do you have like any like like thing I could look up on? Oh, you got the website, right? Got the website. What else do you need, bro? I want to I I want to take a look at that website and um and uh really like analyze it now. You know what I'm saying? Now I get it.

SPEAKER_02: 1:04:50

It's in the chat, beloved.

SPEAKER_05: 1:04:52

All right, let me look at that. Hold on one second. And uh next time I'm gonna try to get that thing on the screen there uh because I couldn't get it on today. I don't see anything in the chat right now.

SPEAKER_08: 1:05:20

I don't think the chat's gonna let you post the link, beloved. No, no, because I tried uh you know just sharing the the our link on the chat and it didn't let us post the the link directly, maybe because you know policies of the needsite, it is afmr dashmoorishright.org.

SPEAKER_02: 1:05:51

So afmr dash m o r I s h r-it e dot org. A fmr-moorishright.org is the website. And on that website you will get another dose of Moorish right, and and also you will see and appreciate the industrious nature of this right, and as was was said earlier, dealing with the sea, there's enough room for everybody to not only sail on this vessel, but guess what, brother Ron? To create vessels of your own and sail with your own fleet. So in the Freemasonic vein, you know, we have the Grand Lodge, and for our Moorish right, we call that Grand Lodge, we call that the flagship. So that is the vessel that is overseeing all the other vessels in the fleet. So if any brother, um any brothers got any closing comments? I saw Brother Yahoshi, Brother Gill.

SPEAKER_06: 1:06:56

I want to say something. Um that what the prophet said, he said he took the veils off all secret organizations. This is not a secret organization, this is sacred. Come on, not the skulls and bones, this is not the Jason project, this is not the Illuminati, the John D. Rockefeller situation. I mean, these are the original Moors that sail the seven seas. Who are the sailors? Who are the original ones? I mean, we're just taking back our position at sea. I mean, you gotta ask the people how many people know how to really get on a boat and sail the seas. I mean, it was us, but the tables has turned. So peace, love, and light. This is a sacred situation, and you gotta get on board to see where we're going.

SPEAKER_05: 1:07:53

Indeed, indeed, indeed. On that note, thank you, brothers, for coming out this evening. I really appreciate you. Very enlightening uh build today. Um, I get it, and uh, I'm I'm excited to learn more. Um, and uh keep coming up and doing more podcasts. And um and um if anyone else has anything to say, you can. If not, we're gonna close it out. Thank you. Hey, hold on. Got a brother, we got a brother in there. Okay, there we go.

SPEAKER_02: 1:08:25

So so brother Brown, brother Martin, brother Gill, and then L Day. Well, just really quickly, brother Martin.

SPEAKER_03: 1:08:32

Peace, peace, brother, and uh peace, uh Prince Shahoshi. That was that was good, excellent what you said earlier, brother. And a piece of what every brother said um earlier. If I if if I could, you know, just add on to what I heard earlier um about concerning the Asiatic, I felt like that that's really like an essential, very important degree, you know, for any more stripe Freemason simply because, you know, it really gives you a uh a perspective to look at yourself within, you know, if you ever wanted to question things and understand things geographically too, you know, even within humanity, you know, that is a good preliminary force to, you know, yourselves, you know. We talk about having a point of origin, you know, right? And to have a point of origin or to, you know, get coordinates, you gotta have, you know, your point of origin. That way you can dot your coordinates accordingly. So I feel like that's what the Asiatic degree is, and essentially that will open up and or raise the sun to the other degrees to put things in perspective. Because um, when you're at, you know, right there at the front and you're looking at the sun from the shoreline, you know, that's when you start to question everything about you what you learn and you know, where you want to navigate, not just in this right, but in this world, you start to realize that you know the world itself is also a vessel that you sell in. So I believe that um this is a uh a spiritual right of divine essence, simply because it's more than just what we what we normally see out of you know, just modern cremation. Not to say that it's better than or less than, but that it's it's really a contribution to if you were feeling spiritually deprived of you this would be a good way to go, you know, and um of course with maturity and letting things go to serve a higher good, but that's my peace.

SPEAKER_04: 1:10:46

Peace, peace, peace.

SPEAKER_02: 1:10:48

Thank you, Brother Martin. Brother Gil, sir.

SPEAKER_08: 1:10:51

Yes, sir. Peace, beloved. Um, well, Brother Ron, just uh thanking you and your audience for allowing us, you know, to have at least a presence in your show. Uh, it's greatly appreciated. It's an honor to share with you and your audience once again. And if I'm invited, you know, I'll be here next next next uh next show. Thanks for the invite. I yield. Peace, everybody.

SPEAKER_02: 1:11:15

And brother Ron, I want to say before the L Day gives his final comments, thank you, uh, you and Brother Mikey Fever, the NYP talk audience, those who are here, those who are subscribed, those who are sharing, and also more you know, importantly, those who are coming.
