Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade

Image
Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade Great Day, Fam. This one right here? It’s not for everyone. If you’re not at or approaching Eldership—defined in our tribe as about 55 years old and up—you might not feel all of this. But if you’re curious, or if you’re one of those younger souls already walking with wisdom, you’re welcome to keep reading. This message is for the Elders. For those of us who should know better. And yes—I’m including myself. Let’s Start With the Mirror I’ve got to confess something. I’ve been guilty. Guilty of being reactionary. Guilty of falling into the trap of conservatism. Guilty of romanticizing the past. Guilty of looking at our young people and calling them “soft”—as if we were born warriors, as if we didn’t have to become who we are through fire, failure, and guidance. Many of us Elders are stuck in a loop. We remember only the highlights of our youth—the toughest times we survived, the boldest moments ...

Faith in Faith: Unleashing the Power of Belief

 

Faith in Faith: Unleashing the Power of Belief

Greetings to Our Esteemed Tribe and Extended Family


Today, we converge upon an extraordinary moment within the enriching journey of self-discovery and
mastery, as defined by the Gye-Nyame Journey Self Mastery System. We find ourselves in a serendipitous concurrence – Imani day during Imani week. This synchronicity of principles invites us to delve profoundly into the transformative power of Faith, the cornerstone of our quest for an enhanced life.


The Essence of Imani: A Guiding Light in Our Journey


Imani, a Swahili term representing Faith, is not merely a distant concept. It's an intimate, life-altering force that resides within us. Faith in our abilities, faith in our tribe, faith in the righteousness of our struggle, and faith in our ultimate victory – this is Imani. It is the rocket fuel propelling all other principles, and it's the luminary guiding us on our self-mastery journey.


Our expedition today, suitably titled "Faith in Faith: Building a Better Life Using the Principle That Fuels Them All," aims to unlock the profound potential encapsulated within this undying belief.



Imani in History: The Pillar of Our Freedom Struggle


Imani is deeply rooted within our shared history. Our forebears leaned heavily on their faith during the tumultuous times of their freedom struggle. Their Faith in Faith itself, an inherent belief in the transformative power of faith, steered them towards progression, even when the path ahead seemed shrouded in uncertainty.


Consider Harriet Tubman's indomitable faith, a beacon guiding her and numerous others to liberation via the Underground Railroad. Likewise, recall Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s enduring faith in humanity, underpinning his vision of a future where equality reigns supreme.


Faith in the Gye-Nyame Journey Self Mastery System


These powerful instances of faith reinforce our drive within the Gye-Nyame Journey Self Mastery System to explore faith's interaction with other guiding principles, wielding it as a robust tool to overcome hurdles and manifest our deepest desires.


The Gye-Nyame numerology ties Imani with the number seven, a symbol of study, rest, and perfection. This symbolism resonates profoundly with the essence of Imani, underscoring our pursuit of knowledge, tranquility in rest, and aspiration towards perfection – elements central to our self-mastery journey.


The Power of Faith in Faith


Let's dive deeper today into the concept of "Faith in Faith." It's about recognizing faith as a force potent enough to reshape reality. Faith in faith invites us to cultivate and nurture our faith, allowing it to guide, embolden, and uplift us every step of the way.


The Wisdom of Our Ancestors: A Tanzanian Proverb


The Tanzanian proverb, "A wise person will always find a way," captures the essence of our theme today. It illustrates how a wise person, equipped with faith, does not succumb to adversity. Instead, they hold an unshakable belief that there is always a way, fueling their creativity to devise new solutions.


Moreover, remember that our faith is strengthened by unity. We, as a tribe, stand together, ready to lend a hand, share wisdom, and support one another.


Faith in Action: Our Invitation to You


Tribe members, let's embody this wisdom and faith. Let us remember that our wisdom, coupled with faith, has the potential to guide us through the toughest storms. Our faith in faith is our lighthouse, leading us towards self-mastery and enabling us to build better lives, fueled by the principles we cherish.


As we delve deeper into this journey, we encourage you to enrich your understanding further. Join us at FreeGNJeCourse.com to learn more about the principles that guide our journey and how to apply them in your life. If you seek to master transformative change, explore NguzoSabaChallenge.com.


Dare to believe more profoundly in your wisdom today, nurture your faith, and discover the paths that await you. Remember, your journey to self-mastery begins with a choice – will you take that first step today?


Ashe.

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.
