The Lone Wolf Lie: Why Your Private Bag Will Rot Before It Saves You

The Lone Wolf Lie: Why Your Private Bag Will Rot Before It Saves You Drop the hustle-porn mythology. The predatory culture that sold you the "self-made" fantasy lied to you. It convinced you that hoarding paper in a gated enclave makes you bulletproof. It taught you to brag about your solo grind while your community’s economic foundation bleeds dry. Wake up: A solitary granary in a starving village isn’t an asset. It’s a target. Pull up a chair. Take a slow, measured breath down into that power center two inches below the navel. Let the tension out of your shoulders. We are stepping square into the sovereign green current of Ujamaa—Cooperative Economics. Our ancestors left a warning encoded in the Zulu and Xhosa proverb: Indlela ibuzwa kwabaphambili —“The path is asked of those who have walked it before.” And who walked it before us? The brave warriors of Guinea-Bissau under Amílcar Cabral, who taught us that true sovereignty requires returning to the source and stripping off...

Daily Toast- Umoja 227171

We have made it to another Umoja, and almost made it through another month. We are going strong with these toast, and by now you should be seeing the effects. Umoja is the point in our principle system where all of the principles we have been working on come together to produce results.

If we take this as Truth (Maat) we can take our principles to another level.  The Law of Metalism states that "Everything is mental, and everything is a mental creation of the All", now this means that the entire Creation is formed through mental energy. Mental energy pro...

I woke up this morning and realized that I was dreaming about one of my elders, and I was faced with the fact that he had passed away. At first I was sad , but then remembering some of the lessons that he had given me during our time together I began to celebrate and it made it easier for me. Mourning is a process that we must go through in order to let go of what was and face what is. Mourning helps us embrace the present moment whole. When we refuse to mourn we hold onto old things that no longer serve a purpose in our life. They begin to weigh us down and make our journey harder than it needs to be. I realized why the words mourning and morning sound so much alike, because they are in essence the same thing. When we first awake a part of us wants to stay sleep, because sleep is comfortable, and in most cases in the western world it is safe, but the fact is that we must get up at some point and face the day, So we have to say goodbye to the dream world, push the covers off, rise, g...
