Origins: The Egyptian Church of Karast
The World Temple of Karast is the spiritual continuation of the Egyptian Church of Karast, a sacred institution established under the Holy Tabernacle Ministries by Dr. Malachi Z. York El. Rooted in the ancient Kemetic (Egyptian) teachings of divine science and spiritual liberation, the Egyptian Church of Karast preserved the sacred wisdom of the Karast (Christ) lineage. This lineage, tracing back to the original spiritual orders of the Nile Valley civilizations, upheld the ancient doctrines of enlightenment, self-mastery, and divine connection.
Dr. Malachi Z. York El, a master teacher, initiated a movement that reawakened the ancestral knowledge of the Moors, Nubians, and indigenous people worldwide. Through the Holy Tabernacle Ministries, he revived the understanding of the middle path, noology (factology), and Karast consciousness, a sacred spiritual path of self-realization and cosmic alignment. The Egyptian Church of Karast stood as a pillar of this awakening, guiding seek iners toward the higher truths of Nuwaupian prophecy, Moorish Science and heritage, and indigenous sovereignty.
The World Temple of Karast:
A New Era of Spiritual Sovereignty
Under the divine authority and guidance of H.I.M. Dr. Lawiy Zodok Shamu-El, the World Temple of Karast emerges as the next phase in this sacred lineage. Recognizing the need to preserve, expand, and unify the ancient teachings, Dr. Zodok established Branch Temple No. 24 of the Moorish Science Temple of America, integrating the Egyptian Church of Karast’s wisdom with the Moorish legacy of Prophet Noble Drew Ali.
As an Omniversal Church, the World Temple of Karast operates under the principles of Temple Law, Natural Law, and International Law, affirming the sovereign status of Moorish Americans and World Citizens. It is legally structured through the Noocratic Society Omniversal Charter and Customary International Law, ensuring its recognition as a sovereign institution dedicated to the spiritual, educational, and social upliftment of its members.
