The Baba- chapter 9 part 3

“First saluting my Creator and my ancestors. I ask that your guiding hands lead me through this test. May you open my eyes and my ears so that I can follow your example and call.” I paused for I didn’t know what else to say but something began to happen. I can’t describe what but words began to pour out of my mouth. “Creator of the universe, illustrious ancestors, forgive me for my past, forgive me for turning away from your guiding hands, and thank you for this new life you have laid before me. I give thanks and I will do with it as you will. Allow me to do only those things that you will have me do, and allow me to walk the path of all of our ancestors, our great ancestors that walked before me like, Marcus Garvey, Harriet Tubman, Taharka, Imhotep, Shaka, Hanibal, El Hajj Malik el Shabez, Shakaka, MLK, and all those I didn’t call. Touch my heart and all those hearts around me so that we will always be reminded of the struggles that our people have went through, and allow us to lear

CHAPTER 9 - PART 2 Everyone came to their feet and I snapped into angalia. They told me to follow them. They walked out the door toward some woods. Kwesi led the way. We entered the woods and it was like going into another world. This was a beautiful forest; it was full of life. The trees in the forest were old and big. I had never seen any of these people before that was working around the lodge. When he got to me he started sageing and it almost choked me. It did not smell bad, but it was strong. My eyes started watering up from it. I put my coin on the altar, and spent in a small circle saluting all directions before I was allowed to enter, like I was instructed. I crawled in and worked my way around the side of the lodge. In the center was a hole. They put me in the spot directly facing the door, and I was instructed that this way my spot for the ritual. Everyone got in, and it was tight but not uncomfortable. It was not that dark so I could still see everyone’s face. Finally Kw

No Ha2ku today/ just walkin with my youngest/ thinking about life/ Ok i lied, I seem to always come up with a Ha2ku. It is just a part of me now. I have to have something to keep me from jumping off this journey and just running to the rat race. I'm sitting up late planning a community program that i will be sharing with you soon. I am planning some amazing things, and I am using the "Player's Pyramid" as my guide to get it done. More on that later. the idea that sparked me to write this late was my youngest son. I often forget that he watches everything that I do good, and bad. In June he found out how to use the on demand channels provided by the cable provider, and he is practicing his reading as well. On a Saturday morning he was watching TV while i was getting his little sister ready to leave. i went upstairs to give my youngest daughter a bath. when I popped down to check on Cleve he had pulled up a free channel. To my surprise he was not watching a violen

Baba- Chapter 9 part 1

Chapter 9 “Jay, wake up!!!” Simba was shaking me. I must have fell asleep reading. I looked outside and the sun must have just rose. “The council is waiting for you. Clean yourself up and report downstairs.” He stood up and walked out of the door. I got up, brushed my teeth and washed my face. I made up my bed and reported downstairs as I was ordered. Sitting around the table were four more people I had never seen before. Simba and Kwesi were also sitting at the table with them. There was a chair sitting in front of the table and I assumed it was for me. “Jay, I want to introduce you to the council that will take you through your vision quest.” After saying that Simba stood up and began pointing to the people sitting at the table.   “This is Sister Auset from Milwaukee. She is a Grand Master….from the House of Chete.” She was  a very dark and beautiful woman looking as if she wasn’t a day over forty. Her locks caught my attention; they were beautiful and long with a touch of

Hell

What if hell is not/                                 Place of Fire and brimstone/   But a state of mind/ My mission as a SelfMastery™ coach is to free people from the hell that they have built for themselves. What qualifies me to do this? This is probably the question that rise in many of your minds. Let me introduce myself to you. I am known as Ha2tim Gye-Nyame. I have been working in my community for years. I have had success and failure. I have been happy and sad. I have spent my life seeking a better way. I know that people do not have to settle in life. The fact that I have found is that peoples lives reflects what it is they think about the most. In my research I have found that in neuroscience they have found that the thoughts we think and the things we learn change the physical structure of our brains. If this is true the question you need to look into is what is it you think about the most. I as a SelfMastery™ coach have developed a simple system that can help peop
