Nia — The Deep Roots of Purpose

Nia — The Deep Roots of Purpose https://www.spreaker.com/episode/nia-the-deep-roots-of-purpose--71364217 The wind is coming. Can your roots hold you? We spend so much time worrying about the "weather" of our lives—the politics, the economy, the daily drama—that we forget to check our foundation. We’ve been conditioned to believe that "purpose" is something we achieve by doing more, earning more, and being more. But Nia (Purpose) isn't about the branches; it's about the roots. It’s about the Divine objective that remains once you've scraped away all the noise. Today, we're challenging the Tribe to stop "building" and start "shedding." Are you ready to find out what's left when the illusions are gone? Call to Inaction: "The heavy load only breaks the back of the one who refuses to set it down." Take a moment today to release the unnecessary. What "branch-work" (performing for others) can you stop doing immedi...

Check out this article that discusses a study that shows that a placebo works even if the patient knows that he is being given a placebo. This speaks volumes about the power of relationship as well as the power of ritual and symbols. I know they dont mention ritual or symbol in the article, but lets take a closer look.
Going to a doctor can be considered a ritual. Although modern practice sterilizes the process the true essence of a visit to the doctor is equivalent to an ancient ancestor visiting the village shaman. We have supposedly cleaned up but in essence it is the same. Now the intersting thing mentioned is that the doctor developes a relationship with the patient based on truth. The doctor is honest with the patient about what is going on. The doctor informs the patient that they are taking a placebo, and the doctor tells patient , that they think (believe) that it will help. When we look at the rituals their is a relationship formed between the ritual leader and the participants based on the same principles. When a relationship like this is formed this gives the particpant (patient) an opportunity to play a major role in their healing rather than just being an objective observer depending on external factors. This allow the patient's mind body and spirit to get involved with the treatment (or what the ancient called the ritual).
Now lets look at the use of symbols. The placebo acts as a symbol of healing. Although the patient knows that it is just a sugar pill the power of healing may be released internal by the ritual of taking the pill twice a day. The important thing for those on the journey to realize is that 59% of the patients  were healed by their involvement with this experiment. What does this mean for you and your life, health and prosperity. If you need some help unleashing this power in your life stay tuned. I will help you.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...

The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels

  The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...
