There is a lot of confusion for many regarding the distinctions/lack of distinctions between the divinities.

The first thing you must know is that there is only ONE Supreme Being/God in Kushite-Kemetic spirituality.

This one God is specifically called Nebertcher (meaning "Lord of All"). However, there are a number of names that are essentially the same as Nebertcher but in different activities as the Supreme Being.

Amen, Ra, and Ptah are the three principal names used to refer to the Supreme Being. They are not different entities, but the same entity in a different activity.

It is explained in the Meduneter that God in his supremacy as mystery (Amen), in his revelation through light (Ra) and his manifestation (Ptah), is the same One Supreme Being. In addition there is Atum, who represents completion.

Please read "The Husia" by Dr. Maulana Karenga which documents actual Kemetic texts on this; it will provide this insight.

In addition, many of the other divinities (though not representative of the Supreme Being in his Totality) are not different "gods" but parts of God, the same as your heart, lungs, and digestive system are not different humans but parts of the same human.

Simlilarly, the other "lesser" divinities are often one divinity that is known by various names or crowns depending on the activity, but they are not a different divinity.

In the Medu-Neter texts, they often explain that so and so is the same divinity in their form as so and so. For example, Mwt and Het-Heru are the same divinity. Mwt is simply Het-Heru in her position as the Wife of Amen.

Just as chemistry is made up of unification of elements (such as H2O), the divinities were often combined to express a new form or to emphasize the already existent connection.

A popular united divinity is Ra (the light that represents the lifeforce of God), so that there is Amen-Ra (the most popular name designating the totality of God) as well as Atum-Ra, Maat-Ra, Ra-Herukhuti, etc.

Much of the confusion is perpetuated by European and Arab Egyptologists who purposely have inconsistencies in spelling and presentation so that the layman is not able to follow and make connections.

We must understand that Egyptology was not established to study Kemet, but designed from the very beginning to serve as gatekeepers to prevent the masses from the secrets of Kemet, secrets that if known would dethrone European or Arab Supremacy forever.

Because their entire economy is based on European or Arab supremacy, they cannot allow it. This is why you must never look to them for light (Ra). Look to Af-Ra-Ka itself.
