<P> Kingism as an ideology is a unique blend of tribal gang rhetoric and religious mysticisms . As one member put it, the Manifesto is "considered our Bible," and reading it is to go "from the darkness to the light ." This can readily be seen in the following passage from the King's manifesto explaining the significance of the salute, which readily combines organizational fealty with Judeo - Christian theism and some variety of nature worship: </P> <P> A fist upon our heart . It means "I DIE FOR YOU" for you are flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood, son of my mother who is the universal nature and follower of Yahve, who is the Almighty King of Kings . </P> <P> The Latin Kings operate under strict codes and guidelines that are conveyed in a lengthy constitution, and they follow the teachings of the King Manifesto . According to the Manifesto there are three stages, or cycles of Nation life that constitute Kingism . They are: </P> <Ol> <Li> The Primitive Stage: "That stage in life where the King warrior acts on impulse, executing his action without giving them the serious thought that they demand . A stage of immaturity where the King warrior's time is spent gang banging, getting high, and being recognized as big and bad ." </Li> <Li> The Conservative Stage: "At this level the King warrior becomes tired of the primitive stage . He no longer wishes to participate in the senseless routine of gang fighting, hanging on the corner or being recognized as big and bad . Most often at this level the King warrior gets married and retires . It is inappropriate to call this stage maturity stage due to the fact that the King warrior at this time does not really become mature in the sense of maturity . Instead he becomes mummified or reaches a level of accepting life as it has been taught to him by the existing system that exploits all people of color - dehumanizes them and maintains them under the economic and social yoke of slavery ." </Li> <Li> The New King Stage: "The stage of awareness and decision . The new King recognizes that the time for revolution is at hand . Revolution of the mind! The revolution of knowledge! A revolution that will bring freedom to the enslaved, to all Third World people as we together sing and praise with joy what time it is - it is Nation time!...For him there are no horizons between races, sexes and senseless labels . for him everything has meaning, human life is placed above materialistic values...When a man become a new King the will of the Nation becomes his will, for to be at variance with the Nation is one thing that cannot endure . The Almighty Latin King Nation requires wholehearted and complete devotion ." </Li> </Ol>
