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 ...

Journey to Self-Unity: A Powerful Inside-Out Approach to Personal Transformation

 

Introduction: Embrace the Power of Self-Unity

The drumbeat of unity resonates across continents, but unity isn't just an external concept. It's an internal compass guiding us towards self-discovery and personal mastery. In the Gye-Nyame Journey (GNJ), we believe that unity or Umoja, as we call it, starts within ourselves.

Understanding the richness and depth of Umoja can catapult you into a transformative journey towards self-mastery. In this blog post, we unravel the threads of self-unity and how it can change your life. As a next step in this journey, we invite you to join our free e-course FreeGNJEcourse.com designed to help you cultivate and embrace self-unity.

Section 1: The Inside Story: Unpacking Umoja

In GNJ, we consider five integral parts of our existence: Intuition, Mental, Emotional, Spiritual, and Physical. Unity within these areas forms the bedrock of self-unity and leads to an alignment of external actions. Umoja is more than a societal tenet. It's a powerful, transformative principle that profoundly impacts our lives and relationships.

Section 2: Shaping Reality with Kujichagulia (Self-Determination)

Self-determination, or Kujichagulia, is a pivotal principle in shaping our world. It starts within us, sculpting our identity, influencing our perceptions, and guiding our interactions with the world. Kujichagulia encourages us to work from the inside out, reinforcing the necessity of internal unity.

Section 3: The Confluence of Umoja and Kujichagulia: Igniting the Power of Self-Unity

The intersection of Umoja and Kujichagulia creates a transformative force: self-unity. This powerful merger helps us embody unity and disseminate it across our family and tribe. However, this inside-out approach to living our principles is counter to societal norms, making it an enlightening challenge to embrace.

Section 4: Lighting up the Path of Self-Unity

By embracing self-unity, we become living embodiments of Umoja, radiating the essence of unity within our tribe and family. It's time we unlearned the outside-in approach that society instills in us and embraced the life-altering power of self-unity.

Conclusion: Embrace the Journey, Transform Your Life

Self-unity is more than a principle; it's a transformative journey that enhances our connection with ourselves and the world around us. As you take the first steps towards self-unity, you'll experience a paradigm shift, leading to lasting personal transformation.

Embark on this journey with our free e-course FreeGNJEcourse.com that guides you through the principles of self-unity. Explore the power of Umoja and Kujichagulia and become a beacon of unity within your community. Your journey to self-unity starts now. Will you take the first step towards transformation?

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.
