The Bellow of Imani: Scrape Off the Fake and Feed the Focus

Image
Listen to this episode Greetings, Tribe. Today, we step onto sacred ground. We are talking about Imani—Faith—and we are vibrating on the frequency of Pure Red. This is the Warrior energy needed to navigate the trials of the modern world. Here’s the hard truth: We are walking around with a lot of heavy social programming. We’ve allowed systemic doubt and collective anxiety to tighten our muscles and cloud our vision. That is a state of fear, and let’s be clear: Fear is a ghost. It is a phantom simulation—an empty shadow that you are granting life force by giving it your attention. It’s fake, family. Our ancestors knew how to handle this with via negativa , the subtractive approach to ultimate SelfMastery. To find the truth, you don't add; you scrape away the illusions until only pure spirit remains. We must declare: Fear is the ghost; Faith is the reality. Our Faith is not passive. It’s the "Bellow of Imani." Remember the proverb from Kenya and Tanzania: "The cow th...

Taking Ourselves Seriously

 Great Ujamaa:

In this episode we explore the difference between being serious and taking ourselves seriously. Taking our history seriously, really looking at it, and understanding how we got to where we are today is essential. Taking our principles seriously is also essential. Being serious about them, however, will not get us anywhere. What will? Taking ourselves personally seriously, being accountable and responsible for everything that we do and say, realizing that what truly matters is how we live. If we live with integrity – if we are kind and compassionate towards others – the rest will follow. We can change the world by changing ourselves first. And when I say "we", I mean "you", because you are in charge of your own life. Responsibility and accountability are the keys to making things happen in our own lives. How much do you take yourself personally seriously? How much do you really want to make a change in your life? Do you have enough responsibility and accountability to take action on something that would help you achieve your goals? Are you ready to make a change in your life?

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...
