2nd Generation Initiate of M’TAM - Disciple of The Maakheru Imak Naba Lamoussa Morodenibig
Baheru Meniooh was born in Hammond, Indiana and currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada. In 2003, he found his path to traditional ancestral knowledge by way of initiation through the M’TAM School of Kemetic Philosophy and Spirituality, which was established in Chicago, Illinois by the world-renowned Dogon High Priest, Master Naba Lamoussa Morodenibig. "The original initiatic knowledge has been guarded by the traditional priests of the “Mystery Schools” (Temples) of Kemet (Egypt). It is only passed on through intense initiations. It is this traditional knowledge that the M’TAM Schools (the oldest spiritual education that exists) are offering, through the same initiation process that was, until now, reserved only for those in the African bush,” stated Master Naba.
Due to the rigorousness of this authentic initiation process, Baheru was only 1 of only 2 out of thirteen initiates who was able to complete all three classes offered at the Per Ankh (1st tier) level of initiation. Baheru Meniooh is the name he received on his day of graduation, as dictated by earth energy readings, which carries the notion of his characteristics and destiny. He officially became a part of the 2nd generation of initiates and is one of the last generations who studied directly under the tutelage of Master Naba before his transition into the Ancestral realm. With a mission to redeem the Ancestral culture and knowledge of his forefathers and mothers, he accepted the challenges and responsibilities of maintaining the humility and discipline required to walk the path of a Kem.
Authorized by the school of M’TAM, he is certified to teach Medu (Hieroglyphics), Ka’at Ibi (Kemetic Yoga/Meditation) and Sounnt (Traditional Healing, in addition to offering lectures, workshops and health consultations. A business owner for more than 20 years, he also produces all-natural health & hygiene products. In November 2020, he opened his first M’TAM initiatic school in California, a non-profit organization by the name of Primordial House, with the blessings and permission of the Maakheru, Neb Naba Lamoussa Morodenibig, and works to one day establish more M'TAM spiritual institutions globally.
Baheru has attended multiple pilgrimages to West Africa. He has sailed with Master Naba in a traditional catamaran on the Djoliba (Niger) river, visited the Dogon cliffs of Bandiagara, Mali and Timbuktu. He’s also traveled to Burkina Faso, Benin, Ghana and Togo, and still frequents various temples, as he continues to learn from and receive the council of his Ancestors, the elders, kingships, traditional healers and priests.
