Take Over Control Of Your Spiritual Destiny

The Prophecy was revealed through images of snail swallowing a serpent.

This reveals the nature of the cataclysmic events that will now befall the earth. They say, “That is not possible.” “It does not make sense.” Until they will either be swept away by floods that do not make sense, earthquakes that do not make sense or consumed in volcanoes that do not make sense. The world that makes popular sense at present is the world of global warming. I do not understand the relationships, if any, between global warming on one hand, and earth quakes and eruption of volcanoes on the other hand. What has global warming to do with escalation of violent crimes such as kidnapping, human bombs, and piracy?

We all know that human beings are both physical and spiritual. This is expressed in Benin of Nigeria as head (physical) and ehi (spiritual). A void results from any interruption in the link between the two. The void in lives is evidence of the spiritual void on earth at present.

Whether or not it makes sense, individuals instinctively seek to fill the metaphysical void in them. The void is due to the departure from the original path of Osa or God. The human race has lost the link to the supernatural that sustains humanity. This is on Oke n’Anubode or Mount Anubode (analogous to Mount Sinai and Mount Arafat). The Mysteries of creation and sustenance of creation are usually revealed through divine revelation on Oke n’Anubode. Oke n’ Anubode as Mount is both literal and metaphorical.

The Riddle

The age long problem, mystery, riddle, etc. is to know or solve the riddle of “I am” or “I experience” in the midst of competing events that could supplant and render it impossible of manifesting. The components of the riddle may be broken into, (i) who is the one that exists and does experiencing? (ii) The event is “I am” experiencing the hidden secrets of the workings of a universe; (iii) the “I am” doing the experiencing is a part of the universe, while (iv) realizing its (“I am's) position by living (i.e. contributing as a creative element) in determining it.

Both the subject that perceives the object and the object are part of one process. The “I am” started from within what it is trying to conceptualize. That which it is trying to conceptualize is Osa in Benin. Some translate Osa as God. The relationship is expressed as Osagbaye or Osa is coextensive with the universe. One is part of Osa that is coextensive with the universe. It is analogous to someone standing somewhere on the land of Africa, and, while remaining on the land, seeks to perceive all of Africa at the same time. One should have to stand outside the universe to “see” or perceive the shape and form of the universe. It is futile trying to comprehend through the senses, what the world is ultimately becoming (not to talk of the multiverse). The information can only be accessed through umian – deep meditation. One must ascend Oke n’ Anubode.

Each self (one’s metaphysical HEAD) lives throughout the universes of a multiverse. This simultaneous existence in a multiverse does not mean living in different universes or periods, one after the other through re-incarnation or trans-migration of the soul. HEAD (or anything or being for that matter) does not exist outside Osa. There is no departing from, or returning to Osa. The path on Oke n’ Anubode is figuratively a helix (steps on a spiral staircase) which runs from infinity to infinity.

Hint At Solution

Both origin and ultimate outcome of existence are in infinity. Human limited mind which can hardly comprehend the fourth or higher dimensions thinks of the path this way. The truth and actuality is the fact that this life is a point/instance in an explosion (paths going in all directions in a multiverse) without any stretch of path being existent when considered on the scale of infinity. Consciousness is like a flash of lightning in a pitch dark night. Conscious existence which we call life is like moments of awoken state of creativity in a perpetual dreamless sleep; or (in the alternative) moments of interruptions by creative moments from ARIA OVBEHE – another, next, or adjacent universe - in a perpetual stream of flashes of dreams. No karma or need can push one to blow up one’s brains to overcome perceptions or cognition. To miss this point is to become a victim of witchcraft spells, illusions, meddlers, and swindlers – spiritual predators.

Proliferation of religions, fetishism, ritual magic, spiritualism, cultism, studies of so-called astral sciences or soul travels, mundane initiations, etc. are different attempts at substitutions. People now rely on soothsayers, shells, cowries and staves for divination to no avail.

The link to the source of spiritual existence or ehi is one’s metaphysical or divine-HEAD. I narrated how the Benins celebrated the head in annual IGUE FESTIVAL. (See also blog WE THANK OUR HEAD in TOC). “The people . . . are relying on HEAD for success. Thanksgiving proves Uhunmwun-agho (that “My Head is my ultimate focus deserving of my veneration”)”.

The true path is the direct path via ehi, namely guardian spirit or destiny without intermediaries, mediators, or messengers between it and HEAD.

Our physical head maybe in this world. Our spiritual self or soul or ehi is on Oke n’Anubode. Okun on Oke n’Anubode is the source of life and intelligence or immanent reason. The head is in the world while ehi is in Okun on Oke n’Anubode. The soul, spirit, psyches, etc. are part of ehi; ehi does not source for its spiritual needs from blood or rotten things. The pure energy or immanent reason from Okun sustains us. There is an usurper between ehi, Okun on Oke n’Anubode on one hand and the HEAD on the other hand. The usurper is represented as the serpent power. This shall be annihilated at the fulfillment of the prophecy.
