Brother Polight is Not Spiritually Conscious
Brother Polight is not spiritually conscious, which is why he, like most ghetto scholars, cannot control their desires.
As most people familiar with the Black Conscious community would know; Brother Polight is currently in very serious legal trouble due to allegations that he sexually assaulted the 14-year-old daughter of one of his mistresses. Recent reports are that he has now been convicted of the crime and has been sentenced to seven years in prison. The truth of this matter will be revealed in time but it won’t change our long-held assessment that Brother Polight is not Spiritually Conscious and it is his lack of spiritual consciousness that has gotten him in moral and legal trouble.
Brother Polight became famous as a champion debater within the Black Consciousness community. The reasons why his fans loved him were many but perhaps the main reason was because of his intellect. He speaks several languages, he is well versed in religious and Kemetic knowledge, and he was a prolific writer who wrote dozens of books. The one thing that set him apart from most other Ghetto scholars though, was his open polygamist lifestyle.
Polygamy is the practice of having more than one spouse at the same time. It is an age-old tradition that is commonly practiced in cultures that follow polytheistic religions. Cultures that follow Judeo-Christian religions do not practice Polygamy; therefore, it is illegal in most countries, including the United States. Most Black men do not have a moral issue with Polygamy. In fact, most of us in the West either practice it outside of marriage or wish we could move to places where it is legal.
If you’re reading this and you’re anticipating that we’re going to say that Brother Polight is spiritually unconscious because of his polygamous lifestyle you are on the right tract but hear us out. You need to understand what spiritual consciousness really is. The dictionary definition of consciousness is a mental state of being aware of one’s environment and one’s own thoughts and feelings. It is the ability to experience and perceive the world around us, and to think, reason, and remember our physical and mental place inside the whole the consensus as termed reality. The Black community’s two main definitions of consciousness are Black racial and cultural awareness and moral uprightness.
Dohgon Spirituality goes even deeper and defines consciousness, or cognition as the passing of Neurons between our two brain hemispheres, which generates a Mind-field. When a mind field is present, our mind will then function under the influence of two mechanisms; Desire and Conscience. Desire is an instinctual mechanism of life, while Conscience is the energy of the Great Spirit that is the universe acting on our Mind -field to encourage the regulation of the Desire Mechanism.
When asked why he was polygamous, Brother Polight stated in one of his videos that it was a natural Desire of his and since his research showed that polygamy was a normal African tradition, he will continue to fulfill his desires. This is the problem that we at the HERU Interface of Dark Consciousness have with cultural traditions. Just because our ancestors practiced certain things doesn’t make them right to continue or re-establish in our present-day lifestyles. Our ancestors had many cultural practices, which if they were inspired by the Great Spirit that is the Universe, could not have been erased by time and colonization.
Most Black Consciousness ghetto scholars do not understand human Desire; therefore, most will see the demise of Brother Polight and not understand how his lack of spiritual consciousness actually led to his sexual perversions. In fact, lack of spiritual consciousness is also what led to the downfall of Young Pharaoh because all white supremacists had to do was figure out what his Desires were and exploit them. Uncontrolled desire leads to low Self-discipline, which is also a sign of a weak conscience. A weak conscience is a sign of a weak connection with the Great Spirit that is the Universe.
