School Of Original Thought

Our lifestyle is based on the Holy Qur’an, and rooted in the teaching of Master Fard Muhammad as taught by the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad and represented by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. It is within this context that we construct our foundation for learning, conduct, aptitude, and behavior at The School of Original Thought. Pursuit of excellence in every field of human endeavor is our path, and the example of the Nation of Islam is the light that guides us. “Education is supposed to be the proper cultivation of the gifts and talents of the individual through the acquisition of knowledge. Knowledge satisfies our natural thirst for gaining that which will make us one with our Maker. So true education cultivates the human being — mind, body, and spirit —by bringing us closer to fulfilling our purpose for being, which is to reflect God. The second purpose for education, after self-cultivation, is to teach us how to give proper service to self, family, community, nation and then to the world... Then, we learn to put desires in the context of morality and become moral human beings that further evolve, and become one with a divine and perfect reflection of the characteristics of God and become little gods ourselves.” (The Honorable Louis Farrakhan)
