Ka Khepera Shule
Strengthens the physical body through martial arts, emergency preparedness, and yogic practice.
Full Egbe Model
Mystic Communion of Self-Integration
The human being is not a single, flat identity. This model treats the self as a living composite of physical, mental-emotional, ancestral, elemental, and Egbe dimensions that must be recognized, balanced, and integrated into practical harmony.
Why This Model Exists
Many people try to solve spiritual, psychological, or relational problems through only one layer of self. This model resists that fragmentation. It provides a fuller map for development so that healing, discipline, and power do not strengthen trauma in one area while neglecting weakness in another.
The aim is not random accumulation of practices. The aim is ordered integration.
Paths of Emphasis
Different houses and streams emphasize different aspects of the work. Together they create a stronger foundation for more esoteric practice.
Khemetic Ashram
Focuses on Ori, aura, and the mental-emotional self.
Pan-African Ancestral Egbe
Emphasizes the ancestral self and the Egbe self.
Kongo Kanisa
Centers on the elemental selves through Kongo cosmology and Palo Mayombe sciences.
The Five Dimensions of Self
The Physical Body
The vessel that holds and expresses every other dimension of the self.
- Physical care, movement, health, and rhythm are treated as foundation rather than afterthought.
- Higher integration becomes unstable when the body is neglected.
- This dimension grounds spiritual practice so it does not become dissociated or abstract.
The Mental-Emotional Self
The realm of Ori and the many internal minds that require balance and alignment.
- Includes the conscious mind, subconscious mind, heart-mind, gut-mind, and shadow-mind.
- Calls for meditation, ritual, reflection, and the integration of wounded or fragmented inner aspects.
- This is where self-command, compassion, instinct, and emotional hygiene are refined.
The Ancestral Self
The living continuity of those who came before, carrying both burdens and inherited gifts.
- Includes ancestral trauma, wisdom, resilience, memory, and unfinished lineage obligations.
- For African-descended peoples, this often includes wounds from enslavement, colonization, and cultural rupture.
- Healing the ancestral self restores continuity and gives the rest of the model firmer roots.
The Elemental Self
The layer of self bound to Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and Ether as living powers.
- In Kongo sciences and Palo Mayombe practice, the elements are vital intelligences rather than metaphors.
- They form energetic scaffolding that supports balance in body, mind, and spirit.
- Attunement to this layer restores force, proportion, and vitality.
The Egbe / Spirit Self
The dimension of spiritual companions, destiny peers, and unseen allies linked to the soul before birth.
- This layer explains why destiny is relational rather than purely individual.
- It includes the soul’s circle of support and the mysterious companions that shape one’s path.
- Work here deepens communal and spiritual balance rather than solitary development alone.
Integration as a Living Pyramid
These dimensions stack like the stones of a pyramid. Every person enters life with a different arrangement of strength, injury, and underdevelopment across those layers. The work is to recognize your own configuration and cultivate harmony rather than over-identifying with only one dimension.
For African-descended peoples, this often begins with the ancestral self because repairing the roots allows the rest of the structure to stabilize and flourish. The work is sequenced, not random.
Ifa as the Capstone
Within this model, Ifa is not treated as one more compartment of the self. It functions as the capstone pattern that helps interpret the arrangement of the whole. Through rites such as the Hand of Ifa, a person receives guidance, protection, warnings, taboos, and insight into how the different dimensions of self should interface.
This is why the model matters before advanced initiation. The goal is not to empower confusion or trauma. The goal is to establish enough order that deeper rites have a stable foundation to rest on.
Second-Tier Streams and Houses
Once the foundation is established, the work can deepen through affiliated streams and houses that intensify particular forms of training and specialization.

Where to Begin
If you are entering this work for the first time, begin with structure rather than intensity. The onboarding path, spiritual development membership, and priest services are designed to help people build roots before seeking deeper initiatory power.
