Scraping the Noise to Build the Tribe: The Power of True Ujima Why are you so exhausted? You’ve been grinding day in and day out, stacking up obligations, checking off endless boxes, and trying to build an entire empire on your own isolated shoulders . We’ve been tricked into believing that individual success is our ultimate armor . This relentless hyper-independence is a direct symptom of an oppressed mind state, reinforced by historical "divide and conquer" strategies designed to turn us against each other and separate us from our collective cultural traditions . But what if your frantic pursuit of the solo hustle is actually the very wall blocking your true transformation into a life of peace, power, and joy ? The Internal Friction: Ego and the Unbalanced Passions There is a deep, underlying tension between the frantic urge to do more and the ancestral mandate to bind together . When we look at the internal friction fracturing our families and communities, the problem is...

Peace FAM:
I must apologize for the late post. Yesterday I fell ill suddenly why I was completing my video and in the process of uploading. The pressure behind my left ear was horrible, and I took the rest of the day to rest. Now i know those that have been watching and reading are like "Brother, how can you fall sick with all of "That Ambrosia" and with you taking those supplements?" The answer is complicated, and I am still looking into it, but I have narrowed it down to some possibilities that I feel that it is important to share with those that will be taking the 21 Day Nguzo Saba challenge. On Ujamaa evening at about 5pm I indulged on a mud pie, and a strawberry pie, that was presented to the staff as a gift. I had two healthy pieces, and at the time it was good. Now for those that are doing the challenge beware of over doing your meals if you are attempting the "Warrior Diet", I figured since I had kept my diet, then the pies would not hurt me. I was wrong, the sugar intake was to much, and the sugar may have contributed to the ear issue that I was already experiencing. I also have to take in account that my body is still cleaning itself out and this can cause you to fall sick as well. Plus this Ujamaa I was hit by about 4 major issues at the same time and I ended the day finding out that I was being sued. So it could be stress, sugar, the addition of oils into my diet, ice cold showers and baths that jump start my immune system, new breath exercises, and/or daily exercises. All of these things are either helping to clean me out and causing some reactions, and those that are out there and attempting to make changes in your life, please do not give up. You will get sick, life will hit you with some BS, and even people close to you will begin to question your ideas and motives. Just take these things and continue. They are signs that you are on the right path, and that things are changing for you. There is a saying "when in hell just keep moving", and I encourage you to keep moving. keep doing your personal work, and watch your life begin to bloom. Remember that before the seed sprouts, and breaks through the ground it has to transform, and travel through the underworld, and the same goes for you.

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 “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...
