Take Over Control Of Your Spiritual Destiny

“I-AM-MY-GOD“, (or My divine-HEAD or God) This is the true religion of the ancient peoples of African. I am ethnic Benin/Edo in Nigeria. We call it UHUNMWUN ‘AGHO in Benin/Edo language. Meaning, “Divine-HEAD alone is subject of utmost focus as bastion of mastery of SPIRITUAL DESTINY on earth; it alone deserves veneration and thanksgiving.”
HEAD here means metaphysical head or spiritual head. This is the head that is routed in spiritual destiny. Those who realize that their spiritual HEAD which we may just refer to as HEAD (Uhunmwnun in Benin/Edo language) is at the heart of Spiritual destiny can see why control of destiny by them is not only feasible, it is normal and inevitable.

Losing the understanding of this relationship is partly due to the impact of slavery and colonialism on the originators of this universally applicable truth. People have lost their spiritual orientation and with it sovereignty. This is in the main due to confusing God for Osanobua.

You might have read that Africans believe in the supreme being which people in the western world call God. Their theologians preach that Man (and woman) lost direct contact with God due to the fall of man. The ancient people of great Benin never saw them as having been separated from Osanobua. They are the colonialists and their agents that confused the people by theorizing that Osanobua is just another name for God.

It is now trite knowledge that African tradition is that the FOUNDERS (not creators) of the world founded it, handed the administration to lesser gods and left. Osanobua and its synonyms in other African languages is not expecting us to return to Him as we were not separated from them in spirit. The link or continuity has been maintained through what we call Ehi. Many people interpret Ehi as destiny or guardian spirit. Our utmost concern is not returning to Osanobua as others seek reunion with God. We cannot be talking about the same thing - God does not mean Osanobua.

Not only are we not separated from Osanobua, we are baby Osanobua. We hence bear within us all the attributes of the FOUNDERS of the world. We are the ones that they handed the administration of the universe to. The administration by each of us must start with control over spiritual destiny.

We attempt to analyze the impact of slavery and colonialism on the psyche of the African in Africa and in Diaspora, so that we may discover and undo the negative impact on one hand, and strengthen the positive impact on the other hand.

Slavery is not serfdom

Slavery is often confused with serfdom. A serf in African context is a person who pays a debt in kind by labor. Thus parties to a contract may work out an alternative method of payment so that the debtor works for the creditor for a stipulated period in lieu of paying in cash. The debtor for health reasons or old age may contribute his son to go to live and work for the creditor for a period. The serf has equal rights to life like every other member of the community. He cannot be sold, given out as gift, or killed as an offering. Slaves by contrast are the property of their owners. They can be given out as gifts, sold, or “sent to carry messages to the gods and ancestors” - i.e. used as human sacrifice. (See TAKE OVER CONTROL by the Author, p 85)

Psyche Of Africans In Africa And In Diaspora

It would be more proper to keep the whole picture in view, namely the impact of slavery (or colonialism where applicable) on psyche of Africans as a whole, both in Africa and in the Diaspora.

Historically, domestic slavery and exchange of slaves as gift or in lieu of payments was part of African culture and societal institutions for millennia before it became internationalize as trans-Atlantic and trans-Sahara slave trades. The historical sequence was as follows – domestic slavery and trade, escalation of the trade into international commerce, colonialism (in Africa), and now spiritual and blood slavery in post colonial or emancipation era. One phase led to the other with the cumulative impact on the psyche of Africans remaining essentially a unity.

Africans and their descendants everywhere shared in their psyche the nature and fundamental attribute with OSANOBUA the creator of the world and father of all the begotten (in Benin/Edo language- mother tongue of the Author). Osanobua is sometimes abbreviated as Osa. Osanobua says, “Whatsoever I will/decree shall be fulfilled through the instrumentality of my agents.” I am keeping the word Osanobua rather than translate it as God for reasons given below as the concept is pivotal.

Homo sapiens by nature is a toolmaker, the African specializes as EBO MAKER. The African share paradigm with Osanobua, as “Whatsoever I will shall be fulfilled through the instrumentality of my agents (which are Ebo).” The paradigm is the fundamental attribute that Africans share with Osanobua. This attribute is first a potential capability which is realizable. The African in Africa was once on the path of realizing the powers of Osanobua. (I shall show later how every Homo sapiens is a co-creator in the universe that is becoming.). This was before the advent of creating slaves. The slave industry took over every endeavor. The impact of slavery is manifested through the failure of the race to produce transcendental teacher.

The cumulative impact of slavery and colonialism on the psyche of the African as a race is that slavery and colonialism stopped the African, especially the adept (Obo) among them on the path of development into the transcendental, namely Osa. I will take the definition of Obo for our purposes here as candidate for spiritual sovereignty.

Stealing Or Brute Force Did Not Work

"The first Europeans to sail down Africa’s west coast in the mid-15th century attempted to steal Africans from their homes. Several violent confrontations showed Africans’ strength, however, and African boycotts proved how dependent Europeans were for such necessities as food and water. It became evident that the only practical way to obtain slaves or other commodities was to bring items the residents wanted in exchange. Within a short time, Europeans and Africans established a systematic way of trading that changed little over several centuries.” (Donald R. Wright)

This does not address the issue of who started the trade. Let us consider a theoretical scenario. The European meets the African King or chief for the first time. He could not have said, “Good day sir, I wish to buy some slaves” on the first day. Nor could the chief have introduced the topic by simply saying, “By the way, I have some slaves that you could buy.” What likely happened was that the Europeans and the African kings exchanged gifts over a period of time. The African king offered ivory or some other heavy items as gifts in exchange for coral beads, manufactured commodities, etc. They needed a means for transporting them to the ships. Since Africans had not invented a cart or wheelbarrow of sorts, and the system of cartage being the human head, the slaves were the logical means of conveying the gifts to the ships. It does not require any special talent to deduce that the slaves were offered as part of the gifts to be taken along to Portugal or Europe.

The Europeans found them to be so dutiful, strong as labor force, and efficient in carrying out orders that the Europeans just had to come for more. Not only coming for more, they invested in formulating a market. They built facilities and workforce to actualize and sustain the slave trade. The triangular trade followed as a matter of course. “The Atlantic slave trade became part of a prosperous trading cycle known as the triangular trade. In the first leg of the triangle, European merchants purchased African slaves with commodities manufactured in Europe or imported from European colonies in Asia. They then sold the slaves in the Caribbean and purchased such easily transportable commodities as sugar, cotton, and tobacco. Finally the merchants would sell these goods in Europe and North America. They would use the profits from these sales to purchase more goods to trade in Africa, continuing the trading cycle.” (ibid)

Who to blame for starting the slave trade? I don’t know. Maybe they were the African Kings and Chiefs; maybe it was the SOCIETY; and maybe it was culture. I leave the verdict to you. It would not make any difference, which the individual was that sold or bought the very first slave. The prevailing cultural (especially religious) conditions that made the transaction possible should interest us if the same history should not repeat itself. Are the conditions of African society different today from what it was in the 1500s? If they are still the same, how do we change the conditions? These are the real challenging issues which the scholars seem to be overlooking.

We need to study the Primordial Causes Of Slavery more closely. Relationships between Religion, Slavery, Chieftaincy, Priesthood, Kingship, initiation, and power – economic and otherwise – need to be addressed as we are doing at FCW (Faboul Cownic Worldwide).

Maintaining Proper Perspective
The debate is about whom is responsible for initiating the African Slave Trade: the Africans, or the Europeans? Before attempting to through some light on the issues of the debate, I wish to point out the real challenging issues that some scholars seem to be overlooking.

The word “slave” was not invented to define a strictly African social institution. The word came to be used as it was associated with 13th century epithet for a people. These people were called “Slav, captive” - because Slavic peoples were widely captured and enslaved during the Middle Ages. That a world supper power, namely the Soviet Union, is a civilization of Slavonic people should be a beacon for us. They achieved independence from being slaves just as we have now achieved independence. Why are we not becoming super powers as they have? Part of the reason is that while they were slaves to human beings who captured or defeated them in wars, we are captors of non-human entities - spirits, Gods, ancestors, demons and the like. We can and should achieve greatness and respect from the world community if we tried in the correct direction.

Africans invented neither slavery nor slave trade. The African slave trade as recorded in history started in mid 15th century or two centuries later than the invention of the term in Europe. The aspect of African slavery that is abhorrent is that the slaves were perceived along with domestic animals as the property of their owners; the Africans being cruel to animals generally (I talk from experience as a native African) did not make exceptions about the slaves as human beings. For example, slaves could be killed for rituals just as roosters, goats, dogs, etc. were. Their owners were not answerable to anyone, and that includes not being answerable to any transcendental authorities such as God, Deity, Nature, ancestors, juju, or whatever. Hence, fear of God or use of God or any divine providence as reason to esteem those condemned to slavery did not exist.

Divine providence was not applied as excuse to intercede on behalf of slaves. The abolitionist movements that were in Europe or America for example could not have arisen in African culture. The moderating attitudes to slaves and slavery as recommended in the Holy Quran were not home grown and was absent in non-Islamic Africa. Furthermore, the African is the only known race who sold their relatives or kith and kin to strangers. This is shameful; hence, the present debate as to whom to blame for starting it.

If the long-run goal of the debate is to prevent a reoccurrence of Slavery or Slave Trade in future, the focus should be on the PRIMORDIAL or causes that are more than skin-deep. We should be in the vanguard of preventing slavery and slave trade in the world in general or in Africa in particular. We ought to be investigating the true origins which are in human psyche, culture, religion (witchcraft), ethos, etc. as manifested by ancient Africans. Is the psyche, culture, religion different today? Are they on their way to becoming different? Every religion or society has a way of communicating with the ancestors of the race. This is the ultimate training facility for the priesthood. Which ancestors does our priesthood communicate with?

Vision quests were common as practiced by the native Indians of the Americas and some peoples of the Middle East. Writers are often silent on the fact that Prophet Moses received the Ten Commandments while on a VISION QUEST on the mountain. So did Jesus go on a VISION QUEST in the wilderness. Such quest leads to a transformation or sublimation of the personality of the leader to be. Where do we quest? Our equivalent of questing is the initiation that leads to a transformation in the personality by staying days and nights in a sarcophagus, mummy cases, or tombs/graves. Witchcraft, vodun/voodoo and funerary rituals produce zombies, etc.

These institutions prevailed in Africa North and South of the Sahara desert before the Europeans came. Consequence of this was that the whole population hinged on the civilization of the dead. Ancestor worship still predominates in our societies today. Virtually the whole population was engaged in the construction of super tombs of Pharaohs in the North in ancient times. The population elsewhere was a population of slaves under a handful of chiefs or ruling class. Wealth was measured in terms of the number of slaves that one owned. And those were slaves as understood in the African culture.

Slave Trade has stopped official; so has slavery too. The underlying social structure of the culture when slavery thrived is still intact. They are only camouflaged, so that the outsider does not see it. The population still suffers under it as did the slaves in the mid-1500s. Hence, it is necessary that these be exposed, because they are the main hindrances to the development of our human intelligence. Imagine a population sustained by a priesthood of zombies. We would remain in five thousand years hence as we have been for the past five thousand years if these anchors of our spirits and souls are not changed.

TAKE OVER CONTROL
=Without Physical Violence=
By R. Dahra Hargaalga Snr. (The Oboiro)

BOOKSHOP

PREVIEW

This Book is about universal human consciousness, religion, supernatural creativity, and spirituality – illustrated with the African.

The issues that are analyzed, and for which solutions are propounded are based on a memorable lecture tour of the USA in summer of 2008.

We have no control over our lives individually or otherwise, because a “black hole” exists in our psyche, heritage, soul, life, etc. as members of the human race. This made us incapable of organizing our lives rationally. My humble contribution is filling this hole with the metaphysics of HOMOTHEISM.

1. African Traditional Religion (ATR):
• Initiation ( worship (C) Cultism

2. Voodoo, Animism, Witchcraft or What?
• The rituals, potions, and hallucinogens in African traditional practices would make any member of any race (not just Africans or Blacks) incapable of certain mental or intellectual capabilities.

3. Salvation (Life, Judgment, Death, and Execution Of The Dead):
• How do we overcome episteme and its ramifications, which include psychic abuse, cannibalism, spiritual predatoriness, etc.? We can by TAKING OVER CONTROL of our destiny and life individually and collectively without physical violence.

4. Ebo – Supernatural Force For Control:
• Two opposing supernatural forces dominate the earth, namely Ebo and its perversion. Ebo is explained.

5. African The Ebo Maker:
• African and their descendants are naturally Ebo Makers; the corrupted one is slave to ebor (fetishism, idolatry, voodoo, etc.) and lives by episteme (explained below).

6. Absentee God or God absent in the psyche:
• Founders of the world created and left. Departure left a “black hole” in consciousness. Externalization of the void is breakdown of communication between the genders; family formation is going to extinction. Turmoil in the psyche leads to base passions, aberration, aggression, deviance, delinquency, etc.

7. Masquerades:
• Secret societies in America (especially in the black communities) may not appear to be dance masquerades; yet they hold humanity (especially African Americans) in spiritual and blood bondage.

8. The Verdict:
• An individual or race that is separated by any means from existence integrated with Ebo is doomed; his/her behavior would lead others to speculate about his/her intelligence and humanness. Hence, some philosophers speculate that Blacks are congenitally stupid; scientists hypothesize that the causes of apparent differences are in their genes. The Oboiro propounds that the true causes are in their negation of their true relationships to Ebo. This is due in part to the ingredients in potions regularly consumed during initiations, rites, worship, and funeral rituals. Psychic, Spiritual and Ritual abuse (PSRA) are other causes.

9. Episteme:
• Episteme refers to human atavistic passion to inflict pain and do evil. Oracles and priesthood facilitate this through initiations, rituals, potions, cultism, etc.

Spiritual Roots Of Slavery

Spiritual slavery has always been part of human history (including African History) since primitive times when people were reared for ritual purposes. They were reared as beasts of spiritual burden rather than physical or material burden. Rearing a caste for rituals came before rearing them for servitude and as beast of labor and physical burden.

The four hundred year commercial slavery seems to be prominent because it is recent and has resulted in the spread of the Africans to USA and the West Indies in particular. Now that slavery is officially over, how does one describe our casualties of inverse democracy or virtual apartheid? These are people who are insulated democratically from the civilization driven by technology, science, artificial intelligence, etc.

Since the primordial causes of slavery are spiritual, we need to analyze the system which is religious. The need to rear slaves came from crave for blood by Deity. Contrary to popular beliefs, one Deity alone, not two, three, or several Deities receive the blood or whatever of ritualism. This passion for blood was communicated to the world through oracles, messengers, shamans, soothsayers, and ministers, among other agents of similar functions worldwide.

The agents of Deity instituted rituals of initiation into the cult or religion of Deity. The initiation rituals included the consumption of potions. This forms part of the baptism when the potion maybe through bath. This potion once ingested, developed into an entity or spirit in the body of the initiate. The Deity would continue to live in the person who becomes its vessel. The Deity emanates its presence through the initiates among the people. These vessels now source for blood for Deity.

Beyond Blood - VNT

The red plasma is not the only fluid that a Deity may require. Some instances of human sacrifice show that the victim is strangulated thereby preventing the blood from spilling. What does Deity derive from the bodies of those tortured to death for example? Such victims may be tortured for days, under pains as in drawing their entrails out through their anuses while they were still alive. Others are left to starve to death, etc. Element other than blood that is vital for the survival of Deity is being extracted from the victims by such methods. It is not a tangible substance; hence, it is not a thing of physical dimension; it is abstract or imaginary to the average person or the uninitiated. I call the element so extracted from them as the Vital Non-Thing or VNT.

Cannibalising The Slave

Why should the initiates feast on things prepared with ingredients from the corpses at funerals? The corpse eaten in some cultures is that of the leader or king of the cult. Supply is not limited to the corpses of rulers in other traditions. A related tradition is that witches or priests do conjure up in the astral or Sabbath, something about the victim to be consumed. It is believed to be transformed into animal forms as pigs, goats, cows, tortoises or whatever. As the animal is killed and eaten in the coven, the equivalent person dies in the physical world. Spiritual and blood slaves are easier targets for this purpose.

The need for supply necessitates rearing bodies in which the spirit of the Deity dwells. The body in some countries is the body of the totem animal of the ethnic group. The Deity feeds where and when the person who is its vessel takes part in the ritual festivities.

Lessons

We have concluded a sketch of the practices relating to feeding by the Deity and how this makes rearing of slaves or their equivalents necessary. This also explains the purpose for human sacrifices or ritual murder and cannibalism. Human sacrifices used to be performed in the public square. This is illegal in most countries of the world today. Does this mean that the Deity has also been weaned from feeding on human blood and VNT? Deity, and not humans caused to be instituted the rituals, religion, and cults or churches of slavery. Human beings are slaves to the Deity. Hence, human beings cannot dictate diet to the Deity. The solution must be based on the fact that the Deity is mortal.

Crave for blood or VNT is the root of every form of violence against life. A Deity that feeds on blood or VNT of humans can never stop. If you do not provide for sourcing for blood for it, it will get it by instigating wars and strife. It may instigate terrorism which I understand to be senseless slaughtering of the citizenry in the name of religion. Conclusively, crave for blood or VNT is the root of terrorism, wars, and every form of violence against life.

Mortal Gods

Jews or Israelites were not the only race who was once in captivity in Egypt. They however displayed one way of liberating a people or race in slavery and bondage. Their slavery is the classical case of one race enslaving the physical body of another. This is different from a race or people under siege.

A large reservoir of persons existed in Egypt that fed the machinery of the offerings for the Gods and ancestors. They were called the living dead. What happened to that population after the exodus of the Jews? Did they vanish or what? They are not slaves officially. What are they, or have the Deity to whom they were once sacrificed been weaned from crave for human blood and VNT? What is the relationship to those organizations in southern USA who study and apply the secrets recorded in the hieroglyphics? Slavery that has its roots in the primordial causes of crave for blood, always end in siege. The siege will remain forever unless a solution is found.

We have shown that there were citizens or indigenes that were in spiritual bondage as the living dead in Egypt. Some have argued that these spiritual slaves were Moorish or black people. (Incidentally, the untouchables of India are black-skinned.)

A trite belief among spiritualists generally (who include non-blacks) is that the Black is more spiritual than members of other races are. Some teachings of secret societies in the world in general, and in the USA and Africa in particular claim that the spiritual achievements of the black race were once the apex of world civilization. That they are now suffering in fulfillment of the law of karma, because they misused it. This is a lie. See http://spiritualityforimmortality.net/Myblogger/blog2.php/2009/01/15/>

I know for a fact that Africans are capable of certain mental manifestations. This is in the areas of the manufacture and deployment of Ebo. The staff of Moses is an example of Ebo-artifact. Our salvation will be by us through the instrumentality of Ebo in appropriate forms including artifacts.

Introduction

Secret awesome powers are in bones – animal bones. Powers stored in human bones will inhere therein for as long as the bone shall exist. I mean spiritual or mystical powers. It is misleading concentrating on developing powers that are store in glands, flesh, and blood. Powers in the bones will outlast them. A corollary of this is that the powers of all bones have been accumulating under the earth, seas, and oceans since Homo sapiens became imbued with certain powers. We call this sort of powers Ebo.
The bones have not always had Ebo. They started having Ebo since HHUABOLT struck the earth. No one can remember when this happened because intelligence was the consequence. Before it happened, Homo sapiens were not “sapient”; hence, they could not have any culture, let alone the tradition of recording anything regarding dates. A brief review of some of the roles bones play in the spiritual history of humanity illustrates this.

The most familiar example is that God took a rib from the side of Adam and made it into a woman. He could just as well have taken one of Adam’s kidneys, testicles, glands, or other part. Man has always had a pair of each of these with one always being a spare.

The human skeleton is the complete set in which a person survives after death. Skeleton as bones neither rots nor pulverize. When the flesh and blood have long returned to dust and ashes, the bones remain. The passions of man and woman are rightly called the passions of flesh. Our passions do not have their roots in our bones; rather, they are of flesh and blood. Therefore, the passions die with the flesh. The powers (Ebo) of the person, which he acquired while he/she lived are preserved in the bones. Not anywhere else, that is perishable such as in the glands or chakras. This points also to the fact that mundane or make-belief initiations aimed at developing the activities in the flesh and blood rase transient passions. The product or apparent gains are all vanity.

Power Continues In Bones

Priests who practise blood rituals believe that the blood of some animals are superior to the blood of others. They understand human beings to be higher than other animals. They consider human blood therefore to be superior to the blood of lower animals. This belief extends to the hierarchy of bones. They consider human bones superior to the bones of lower animals.

Some races are known to eat different elements of the bodies of their enemies after slaying them in battle. The parts or elements, which they drink or eat, include the blood, the heart, or brain. They wish to add the vitality of the fallen soldier through the consumption of his blood; his courage they hope to assimilate by eating his heart; inheriting the intelligence or power of divination of the victim leads them to eat the brain. These consume the warm body and leave the bones. Unknown to them, the bones that the slain leave behind maintain their presence in the world.

Some tribes, families, or cult members in some parts of the world including Africa eat parts of the body of those whom they “sacrifice” as part of rituals. Some eat the body parts of the dead members of a shrine or cult, leaving the bones. The powers in the bones form part of the powers that haunt people who murder to enhance own powers.

Cannibals, who eat human meat, do not care; they may smash the bones to get at the bone marrow. No matter what they do, the bones whole or in pieces retain their original Ebo (in the sense that particles of magnet retain their magnetism). Those who kill for rituals may not break the bones because they think that the flesh and blood serve their purpose better. However those who understand that the powers of the victim is in the bones would leave the bones undamaged, of lower animals which they sacrifice. This reverence applies in particular to the bones of the totem animal of the ethnic group.

Some races collect the bones of their Patriarch in alter or shrines. Nomadic races carry the bones in special containers. The spiritual powers, namely the Ebo of their Patriarch guide and guard them through his bones, which they carry with them in their migration. Other examples are many where people bury their father or god in a place that they later convert into alters or shrines.

Application Of Powers In Bones

I as Oboiro must live, survive, and triumph among those who practice these forms of magic and necromancy. I must also aid members of my family, as well as others to overcome the evil powers in the world. The only way and means to achieve this is to create entities, which include Ebo-artifacts. These artifacts bear Ebo as their powers. I make some using only plants and NEVER animal flesh, blood, or body parts. I take only the bone from the animal that I wish to include. This point is where GENUINE Ebo on one hand differs from all the rest on the other hand.

Others manufacture idols, fetishes, and things that rely on blood for their powers and invigoration. They do not manufacture Ebo even when they call their objects of blood ritual Ebo. Ebo requires no blood; hence, they can neither rot nor fade away. It can neither be appeased nor corrupted (“spoilt”) once it is created and assigned specific functions or duties.

Ebo must necessarily be sent on battles. When so deployed, genuine Ebo can never be bribed to either deviate from or negate its assignment once assigned. It will pursue the goal into eternity.

ODION Or Dean Among Ebo

Ebo gathered together by one person or by a community must include at least an ELDER, dean, or chief called ODION among them. Without such, they cannot perform as a team. The advantage of Ebo constituting a team as against being a collection of separate or unrelated individuals cannot be over emphasized. ODION Ebo is the dean or boss everywhere that it is installed. ODION organize other genuine Ebo into teams and have their own intelligence. They must necessarily be made of metals to make them independent of any family or tribe who could have as their totem the animal whose bones are used. The metals must also have the characteristics of permanence. I create these therefore in bronze, silver, gold, etc.

Introduction

We are in the black history month again. It is a proper time to remind ourselves of the unfinished business of freeing our people from siege.

For a start, it is bad manners of black people poring abuses on the race. One hears the African, especially the African at home making uncomplimentary remarks about the black race in general and the Black American in particular. Therefore, I shall neither stoop to their level nor allow myself to be grouped along with them.

Black is beautiful and that is right. However, we must go beyond being beautiful. There are other unique qualities and competence of the African. Our collective project should be to define and promote development of those qualities. I shall mention one or two of those presently. But first let me highlight what I call the unfinished business here. We should be able to focus more on accomplishing higher goals than just being beautiful.

Blackman In America

I was in Atlanta in the summer of 2008. I lived through the celebration of Blackman In America week or so that featured several interesting and related programs on TV. A startling one was the interview held with one guy who was preparing for this college decree while in prison. The journalist asked him to explain why he had to come to prison, before reading for college degree. Out of him came the revelation: “I did not know that these things existed before now!” he said. An adult male citizen of the most powerful country on earth did not know that education existed!

That is not the only thing that they do not know. I did not know before my lecture tour of the USA, that poverty does not prevent one from education. While many of us in Africa bemoan our poverty as the main obstacle to education, that problem does not exist in Georgia and many other states that are home to the African American. You only need to complete a form stating that you are poor and the state will finance your education to a functional level.

Single Mothers

Another revelation to me was that the majority are single mothers who have to raise their children without the fathers of their children. It also was asserted that the fathers who ran away from their responsibility of supporting their own children had no fathers looking after them while they were young. The question is this, when shall the vicious circle be broken. Who will break it but we ourselves? It might interest the African in the Diaspora to know that we also have the same problems in Africa. My two brothers, two sisters, and I were raised by my mother alone. So was Obama, the present president of the US. Should the descendants inherit everything, including this habit? And if they do how could they be assisted?

I had a scholarship to Germany; hence, I could benefit from both German hospitality and Grundlichkeit (thoroughness). Had I not travelled out, I would not have been able to organize my ideas so that you could read, agree, or disagree with. But the African American is not so handicapped. They live in an affluent society, a scientific society, a technological advanced society, a wealthy and prosperous country, etc. Yet they seem to be like a person who stays dry in spite of coming out of a river. Why?

Hostages Of The Priesthood

Part of the explanation is that they are hostages of the priesthood. This includes the spiritualists, soothsayers, oracles, messengers, “masters”, and other lords spiritual. The black community is exposed to all sorts of spiritual parasites, spiritual predators, and con-artists such as those who claim that they can exorcise bad luck, bad spirits, and learning difficulties. They misinform, mislead, and brainwash our people. They would teach people to blame karma from past lives for failure in this life. They would teach that magic can be black or white, or that magic is same as science or can even be better than science! They preach “do it yourself” initiations into the occult and demonology. They subject them to psychic abuse so that their victims end up as substance abusers and sexual perverts, who will have sexual intercourse with members of species other than Homo sapiens. They deceive them and tempt them to defile their bodies. They glorify such defilements as exercise and demonstration of freedom and democracy. They enslave their souls and spirits. This list can be extended effortlessly. Let that suffice for now.

The chief priests, pastors, and Imams, like all others of similar callings among all races of the world are primarily interested in recruiting victims for themselves, their Gods, and ancestors. Alternatively, the gods and ancestors are to blame for misdirecting their priesthood and agents to mislead our people. When we go through initiation rituals into secret societies, masquerades or lodges in Africa, we always have access to antidotes where necessary. The African American has no access to such antidote. We are contributing our humble quota to the resolution of this problem by incorporating a branch of Faboul Cownic worldwide (FCW) in America. “Cownic” is an acronym formed from CommonWealth of Non-Idolater Citizenry. (Read our Aims and Objectives)

Let Us Remember

I hope that while we justifiably rejoice over having an African American president, we should remember that a lot of unfinished business of liberating the minds and spirits of our people remains to be accomplished. Let us remember the single mothers who share by far a larger ratio of the burden of raising the children and youth who are our future. Let us remember the toddlers and youths who, though not being orphans, are forced to live like orphans by their fathers.

While we are celebrating advancement in civil rights, we should remember that some of our people need accurate instruction on the difference between right and wrong, especially with particular reference to abuse of one’s body and spirit. They should be taught that it is not wrong to be ambitious. We should challenge them to start thinking at an early age, of what they would like to become when they grow up. We must re-establish communication between the genders among the youths, encouraging them to value the family unit as being superior to gang, cult, lodge, church, shrine, and related secular or secret societies.
