The Awakening
Born in Omaha, Nebraska, Ra Ama relocated to Florida with his family at the age of three. From a young age, he exhibited a deep spiritual awareness, developing a natural practice of meditation and reflection that allowed him to commune with his ancestors. This early connection laid the foundation for a lifelong spiritual journey.
While in college, Ra Ama experienced a profound spiritual awakening that shaped the course of his life. During an art class, his professor offered extra credit to students who attended a historical presentation on Ancient Egypt, led by renowned historian Ashra Kwesi. As Ra Ama listened to the lecture, he entered a deep meditative state and vividly envisioned the civilization of Ancient Kamit as it once was, thriving, harmonious, and filled with divine purpose.
At the conclusion of the lecture, Ra Ama asked a pivotal question:
“How did the people of Kamit live to create such prosperity and greatness?”
The lecturer replied, “They lived in harmony with Maa-t.”
When Ra Ama pressed further and asked, “How did they do that?”, there was no answer. This moment ignited within him an insatiable desire to discover the path to living in true alignment with Maa-t and experiencing the prosperity and abundance of the ancients.
During a period of spiritual reawakening, the ancestress Mū-t Ra bestowed upon him the name Ra Ama Hetep Amen. Translated, it means “One who sees the ways of the ancestors brings peace and prosperity.” This sacred name perfectly reflects the essence of his journey and foreshadows the realization of the Maā Sa Philosophy and the eventual creation of the Maā Sa Society.
Through decades of study, meditation, reflection on past-life experiences, and communion with both living elders and ancestral guides, Ra Ama Hetep Amen uncovered the Maā Sa Philosophy, an ancient yet timeless spiritual framework that provides practical guidance for manifesting peace, balance, prosperity, and divine purpose in everyday life.
Today, Ra Ama Hetep Amen continues to share the teachings of Maā Sa through his books, lectures, and the Maā Sa Society, helping countless individuals reconnect with their spiritual heritage and answer the timeless question that first set him on his path: How can we live in harmony with Maā-t?
