WHOA!!! Thanks for all this golden info! Questions:
- Is there a meaning behind an infant who doesn’t want the breast? I was that child. After a month or so of trying, they stopped trying to force me.
- In the days of slavery and wet nurses when another woman breastfed a child, does that mean the child bonds more with that woman than their biological mother?
- When a woman has a hysterectomy before menopause, does that remove her power and stop the natural progression of the stages?
- Men drank the woman’s blood to get power…is any of our power given to them through sex as well?
- Other than making a bloody mess (pun intended), is it spritually wrong for couples to “run the red light”…copulate when a woman is menstruating?
-
I love these questions and I cannot wait to see the answers.
also, for effeminate men would you say they carry a female energy and for men who were born and say they always felt female … is it different for them in terms of the female energy. Is the womb that makes a woman or is it the female energy or a combination of both ?
-
Ah, the tough question.
For the effeminate men, perhaps they are in tune with a feminine energy, or Spirit beyond our world. But that feminine energy does not manifest into the masculine body.
But for the woman, the feminine energy manifests into her PHYSICAL features: i.e. breasts, womb. Their function, their divine purpose is what is called “feminine energy” and what takes human form as Woman. This energy is the energy of creation, and the process of creation is a feminine one.
Because Woman is nurse, “mother”, teacher, nurturer, bringer of life and more, these “characteristics” are energies of the same branch. Therefore, as energies they are manifested in other forms other than human, such as water or the Earth. And other forms such as knowledge and studies (the ability to “know” is represented by the feminine energy, as it is through her that the offspring learns. The same is true for the relationship between student and teacher. It is akin to that of a mother to child).
These are feminine principles that simply exist and take form.The whole system of the womb is almost like a computer program running inside of the woman that distributes life.

Thank you for bringing me some clarity on this as I’ve always wondered about it.

Good even RBH
questions answered in the order asked.
1-Whether the child suckles or not, the breast and the milk at that moment belongs to the child. It is he or she who is came to the mothers breast for.2-No matter who suckles the child, the child knows the mother through her smell. If another woman is nursing the child and the mother enters the room, the child will raise its head and thereafter stretch its arm out to the mother.
3-Even if the womb is removed the power of the woman is the for there in that same spot once lies the power and even when its gone, its essence remains.
4-Yes, but they are not able to sustain it all. This is why sex should never be frivolous.
5-Yes it is. The women is on a spiritual height when she is seeing her period, so no man should “run de red light”. Other than that being disgusting, it is spiritually not a good thing to do.

Thank you O!

This is probably my favorite post from you Obara ! I appreciate this so much. I felt my most powerful while pregnant and even more powerful after I became a mother !! and breastfeeding oh my ! I cannot find the words !
becoming a mother was definitely an awakening for me. I felt more beautiful, confident and empowered. I feel like a powerhouse ! especially when I’m breastfeeding, it is so liberating. I feel like I’m one with the world.- so all these secret brotherhoods, they have women in those meetings cus I’ve always heard women aren’t allowed.
as women, we are definitely the prize. No wonder men try to fight us out so much in life it’s because they want the energy we have but they will never have it.
-
Hahaha. Your post makes me laugh out loud. Well for ur information No one can change what God already made. Men were made to rule over women till enternity. We shall always rule over you. Wemen are great anyway.

Another bombshell revelation…I honour and worship you.
This post has given me the full understanding of the late Dr Ben Yosef Jochannan (My utmost honour to him) was alluding in one of his lectures when he said Woman is our God because creation comes from her.
Thank you always Great One!

Indeed this is the year of repercussion all secret are revealed, thanks Obara meji.
Please I have some questions:
*Why in some spiritual churches women who are menstruating are not allowed to enter the church?
*what are women’s defence with this 3 three feminine powers?*An occult man said if a man really wants to succeed in life he should be extra generous to his wife and also show her respect what is the mistery in what he said?
*What powers do the right and left hands of a woman holds?
*I hear someone call my name when I sleep if I wake up to see who calls I find no one, how do I identify the voice and respond?
-
Hello Obara greetings, 1 question is the feminine energy disrupted in anyway if the female was raped?
-
Great question, Jojo
Rape will have a strong psychological impact on anyone who has been through this terror. However, whenever anyone goes through trauma such as rape or anything akin to it, consciousness is moved aside (I will write I this one day), while the act is happening. So in many cases when this is happening, the person even while in pain or terror will feel numb or like they are outside of their body watching this terrible happening. Afterward, it is the psychological impact, different from mending the broken body, the person has to deal with and build back. As for the energy that she carries, that remains intact forever.However while this is happening and the woman knows (And is strong enough) what to recite, hell and terror will be upon her violators for life, they would wish death upon themselves instead!
Prayers for anyone who have suffered this awful act upon them!

This is a fantastic post Ma’am. Women really needed to know this i must admit. Because this generation like you pointed out have bastardized their femininity to the point that i see stuff and cringe. I’m not a woman but I’m loving this post like crazy. Big up to all the women and mother’s, i respect you.
Scientifically it’s been proven that intelligence is transferred to the child via the mother through the X chromosome of which women have 2. So when i read about the breast and breast milk and how the child still recognizes it’s mother even while suckling from the wet nurse my jaw dropped.
So i went to watch that video on YouTube, i watched the whole thing, it’s almost 2 hrs but very deep. So this triggered my curiosity and i have to ask.
1. What happened that made men so scared of the feminine energy that they did everything possible to subdue it but drink the moon cycle blood to tap from its essence?
2. Why where they successful at it and why were women with all that power not able to ward it off?
3. If women come into the full glory of this energy, will it be good or bad for us and the womenfolk in general?
4. How can a man benefit from this feminine energy through his partner?
5. What is the masculine energy about, just as you expounded on feminine energy?
6. What is the divine role masculine energy and how to complement the feminine?
Thanks again Ma’am. Please don’t stop teaching us.
Blessings, love and light to you and yours.

Kay as one of my brightest stars here, I am astonished by your statement,
“This is a fantastic post Ma’am. Women really needed to know this i must admit. Because this generation like you pointed out have bastardized their femininity to the point that i see stuff and cringe. I’m not a woman but I’m loving this post like crazy. Big up to all the women and mother’s, i respect you.”
Attention Kmart Shoppers!!, This post is not just for women it is a general post for all to know about the feminine power/energy.The woman, who she is, what she is and so much more.
Sometime ago while heading home, some stupid Nigerian police jumped out on me and my party in unmarked cars and vans, with big rifles. This is night time, but Nigerian police act like arm robbers, (and most are beggars), because most of the time when they stop people it is money they are looking for. They came out, guns in hand surrounding my vehicle like we were criminals. I rolled my window down and asked what do they want and why would they jump out like thieves like this, not identifying themselves and acting like hogs. One particular very ugly one (forgive me, but he upset my spirit that night), was shouting like he wanted to intimidate me. I now answered him, asking why was he shouting, what was his problem. Then came the ding bat of the group saying “eh, calm down now, you know you are woman, and you may say the wrong thing now, woman must not speak like you, you be woman now”. I could tell he could not read a book to save his life.
From him saying this (Yoruba man), I could tell this bastard beats his wife. It bothered me so bad, all I kept thinking was “Yes, I be woman, but If I speak words into his life, he will surely know that I be woman” This is why some people must not know some knowledge, for if I was irresponsible, he would be a lunatic as we speak, waking the streets of Lagos eating grass, he had no idea who he or they had no idea who they stood in the midst of, they should thank their God that I am benevolent…….. (sometimes).
Kay, fix up your statement!
1- Men (the church and all), realized that within every culture, the secret at the end of their search was the woman. So they decided to change everything making the man dominant. God is a man, the world savior Jesus is a man, so much that the Christians did not even write in their mythical Bible that he had a wife. No Jewish man of his age would have been unmarried. Remember Jesus was not Christian, he was a Jew. Mohammed is a man, when in fact the angel that came to him in the cave was called Ali,she was from the water and was feminine, but it was changed to Allah because they did not want to serve a female God.
Even the world agenda, that particular one, figure out what I am talking about, it was to usurp the feminine energy. The Romans started it, Read the book called the Medu Neter
2- Men can never take a woman power away from her. even if she is calm and docile, she still holds her power. It is a foolish man to believe he has power over any woman. Being chill does not make you weak. she is life and without her, the world will be no more,
Watch two small children play, boy and girl, watch who commands who, and who controls who, watch who follows who. This also so in Nature, the male animal works hard for the female attention. Even lions, it is the Lioness who hunts and feed the family, while the lazy male wait for his food.3-Treat her with love, care and respect. Once a man find a good woman, he has found gold.
4-Men have their contribution to the world, and I will write on it. But this question should not even be asked, when you men are looked up as everything, the defender, God, the commander, the provider, and more, what more do you want? When you same ones have carved out power for yourselves and have place women in the back.Speaking like a typical man (Nigerian here Kay, lol)
5- I will write on this, but he is her support and defender, but these days men are no more acting like men, so what do we do?
-
Thanks for the response Ma’am. You scolded me. Don’t get me wrong, i started my comment like that because I’m not the typical man in how i treat women and I’m not like the typical Nigerian man i must tell you. I have always been intrigued by women and felt they hold a lot and have more than a lot to give. I usually feel women should be liberated in some way and that it’ll make the world a better place. I’m glad you’re familiar with Nigerian men so you’ll understand when i say a lot of friends have tagged my enemy as “woman wrapper” cos of how i treat my Bae with love, care and respect. And i also extend this character to others of the feminine gender with no strings attached though.
I asked question four in order to see where i can improve upon because I’m learning everyday and always want to do better as this will be of benefit and i will in turn shower those benefits on my partner because we’re a team. I don’t see her as beneath me I promise you. And i hold women in high esteem. This is why I always say to females “if you know your power you will fight to be a feminist before taking control of things the way you want” i have always made this comment before finding ES and before this post. It was just a sense of knowing within me.
At the age of 8, a sports car passed in front of my house and i said “mommy mommy, this is the kind of car i will buy for my wife” how did that come to me? I do not know and mom keeps teasing me with it till today by saying I haven’t bought one for her whose breasts i suckled and I’m already planning to buy one for my wife.
So I’m not making light of the post but happy that this gives women a sense of self and more confidence to grow into their energy and think highly of themselves because they’ve been overly subdued for no just reason asides manly ego.
Your answer to number5. What do we do? I think a post for men can be a starting point. So that we can learn and pass across to our sons and also enlighten or chauvinistic friends.
You can whoop me again if I’m still not passing my perspective across correctly.

The whopping was gentle, so no worries. Women can never be suppressed, it looks like it, but remember she is the Source. Orisha Osun is the ultimate feminine energy, she is the source, she is water, and water is needed by all. There goes power that belongs to the woman and in every way she feeds the world.

Sorry to hear this my dear, but as I answered a comment below, the feminine energy, stays with you always. You are the embodiment of that power for life, as you were born so.

Thank you Olu

You are welcome Omo

Ase!

Thanks for this post Obara. You’ve explained this really well.
There is a part that caught my attention though and that is the part about women who have gone through menopause.
Some women whongo through menopause can exhibit extreme mood swings or just become extremely miserable and if they have this power during this stage I’d hate to be around and get a cussing from them for no reason. That begs another question as what if you happen to be in their presence when they suddenly go off? Will what they say still affect you if it wasn’t warranted and is there some way to atleast protect yourself against such an instance?
-
Hi Obara!
is there any correlation here as it relates to the alleged “attachment” that people say a woman has to the man she chooses to lose her virginity to? -
Hi obara huggs another great read…
-
Good day ma. God bless you for the good jobs you are doing. I want to discuss some matters with you. I sent a message to your email till now I haven’t gotten a response.
-
It is possible that I did not see the email, but couldn’t you email me again in case I didn’t se it? Why not send a second a email to ensure I see the first. However I did go searching for your email because I do take pride in answering everyone and I read it and at the end you say you need guidance, please tell me how can I help you? I am a spiritualist/traditionalist the way I assist people is by teaching, giving information, doing divination and spiritual work among other things, so please inform me on what you want help with as I am
still not clear. Otherwise book a divination for us to see a solution to your problem.-
Good day ma. Thank you for your reply ma. I am trying to book a reading but my subtotal charge is displaying 220USD instead of 110USD. I couldn’t figure a way around it….

-
Thank you ma for the wonderful post. Plz can you clearify this part of the statemen?? ” because, within her are the secrets of what humans call God”. Does this mean women are women are the God we serve? Or what do you actually mean?
-
Thanks for the post ma. Years ago, i was drunk and slept with my girlfriend who was on her menstrual flow in an open field at night. Though i was still very more alart with all the knowledge of what i was doing. But later on after the sex, i realize i did something wrong. And ever since, my mind sometimes reflect back to that incident and i always feel sad whenever i remember it. I knew from the beginning that it was wrong to have sex with a woman on blood. Please what should i do??? Thanks so much ma. I greatly anticipate ur reply.
-
Obara, thank you for the enlightenment, more blessings. Please Ma help us; how do we “women” make use of our feminine energy positively in the betterment of our lives. Thank you

DIY Rituals Gone Wrong: What Happens and What You Don't Know

Beautiful post some ppl love to just take mess with things without having background knowledge. I have a friend that wash a YouTube video and saw them buss a coconut over them head and tried it without know the actually meaning. True me know puss and dog nuh have the same luck
Ms. Obara you alone me follow when me read the blog and follow ur instructions.

what you say make alot of logical sense especially with people preparing candles or work for people. When I use to live in the BX I would go buy Frankincense at a huge spiritual store. There was a guy there who does readings in an open area of the store and I always wondered why would he give readings in the open plus I could see him preparing works for people on a few visits. Like my spirit told me NAH that’s a no no, not like I really knew any better but just had the strongest feeling it wasn’t the correct way.
Maybe that’s why many person ask for work from practitioners and they dont work as you said. The work is very personal and the magic is in the Intent of the person who require the work. Maybe it is better for your spirit to guide you than to let someone just willy nilly do it for you like it is some cut and paste lol
Blessed Love
Sis
How you having a great day-
Blessed love to you also Lincoln! It is good that you know to listen to your own spirit if something does not feel right! I’m having a wonderful day. Blessings

NOTE:
This post is NOT to say that people can not assist themselves in any way, such as using Florida Water, water, beer, urine, salt, rum, and other such delights, or building and praying at your Ancestral Altar, or using incense in your home. These are all perfectly fine to do on your own (of course, you should still be mindful of taboos! It is always good to have a mentor).
But when you try to go to depths, as in calling for love through ritualistic means (the love can indeed come, but what will it come with?)
Or in my case when I was told put salt down and the salt fell and there was war afterwards, even though this was not a DIY, it was incorrect information. (See This Post: The Spiritual Power of Salt – How to Use it and How NOT to)
It would be remiss of me teaching you so many things, and not warning against deeper things (i.e. removing obeah yourself) that can have dire consequences.

Thanks for the post, Obara Meji. It was very insightful and revealing at the same time.
As you can see from my name, I’m a twin. Let me just say, my own twin has always been envious about me. I’ll let you read between the lines and thie topic of this post. Suffice to say, we no longer have a relationship. Usually, I’m very intuitive when it comes to things, but you don’t want to see your own twin sister trying to conspire against you. Hence the thousands of miles of distance that is currently between us.-
Hi Ibeji1123,
Sorry to hear that! But I’m happy about the choice you made. 7 brothers, 7 different minds.

This is nice. Well done Ma’am….
I’ve always wondered why a person will spend many years in school to study one course or another and then dabble into spirituality by themselves without any form of training. That’s the height of ignorance and recklessness i must say.
People have gone mad for this reason.
I never repeat a work without permission, no matter how effective it turns out to be.
My curiosity says to ask;
*What’s an instance of being sexually unclean and if a person is in this state, how do you cleanse yourself before carrying out the work given to you by the spiritualist?
*If a woman has a spiritual soap or cream or perfume that she uses, and then her period comes, will touching the pack of the soap have a negative effect or is it touching the soap directly? Will touching it by mistake out a fleeting moment of forgetfulness neutralize the energy in the soap?
*If the menstrual blood has this effect, what happens to a man who’s fortified spiritually when he sleeps beside a woman on her period, and also maybe while doing the deed and her period comes?
*Will being sexually unclean/menstraution neutralize Florida water or Divine grace if the bottle is handled?
Thanks for sharing this vital information Ma’am.
Love and Light!!!
-
Hi Kay,
Question 1A:
Sexually unclean in this instance means a person who has just copulated with another and has not cleansed themselves through the act of bathing.
Question 1B: How do you cleanse yourself?
Bath. Wash yourself. Brush your teeth. If you are pure, the work you do can remain pure as well. If you are unclean, so, too, is the work.
Question 2A:
If she willfully touches the soap while menstruating, knowing she is not supposed to, yes it will. It can remove the power of the soap or cut it down severely. Note that if it is done with malicious intent to spoil the medicine, it will not work.
Question 2B:
If the person touches it by mistake, genuinely by mistake, it will not have any effect.
Question 3A:
To be honest, he should not, especially if he has certain medicines in his body. But if the woman is clean and knows how to take care of herself as a woman (they should share separate bedspreads during this time), then the medicines will know to stay far and wide away from him, because, remember, the medicine IS SPIRIT (see this post: Broader Look On Ancestral Worship).
Question 3B:
No, it will not. This mostly happens with specific medicines that are spirit turned into medicines, and some medicines that I, the spiritualist, can give.
-
Thank you Ma’am. Greatly enlightened here.
You’re blessed. Ase!!!

Question 1:
It has nothing to do with sexuality. What I meant is that if a person copulates with another and does not clean themselves before touching the work, pure energies will have nothing to do with the work. As a matter of fact, it is a taboo to do this, both within spirituality and traditional practices.
Question 2:
It is the same answer with menstruation. It has nothing to do with the fact that she is a woman, and definitely not that menstruation is “nasty”. But certain energies do not work with a menstruating woman because as you and I know, when a woman is in this state, she is being cleansed, both spiritually and physically. And also, she is very powerful during this time and is therefore operating on a different vibration, one that surpasses her humanness. So she, in this state, has the power to nullify any spiritual work. She can damage work because of her power.
And it is not only coming through Ifa, it is universal. Spiritual rites and passages and taboos are what works with energies. And if the spiritualist is strong and knowledgeable, he will know that there is no work, no spiritual gathering that can be successful without the presence of a woman or feminine energy.
Will write a post on the feminine energy in spirituality!

Another great post Miss Obara. I hope this post makes its way to a lot of people who are thinking about dabbling in rituals without proper guidance. I remember reading about a young woman back in April from Virginia who went viral for trying to summon a Haitian Loa to hex her ex. She even went as far to document the whole thing on social media with posts and pictures. A few days later, she posted that she saw the Haitian Loa and was terrified for her life. A few days after that, she mysteriously drowned in her bathtub. O_o

Love to see you here my baby Tiara, how is husband and family? Thanks for the comment and the story, I had heard of this, people must be careful.

Thank my head for leading me to my good spiritualist Obara! Another informative read. I remember having to go in a botantical shop ohmg my spirt vex every time. The place was crowded and the vibe did crazy. No calmness or cleanliness inside that shop. The lady ask if I wanted a reading. I stayed humble and said no thanks. Obara had already given me the remedy to travel there and leave with all of me. Last time I pass it was locked. Smh Love and light!

Good morning ma’am, when you said as quote “And also, your own spirit will protect you from your own desires, and you may interpret protection as blockage, not realizing that your own life is being saved”. This is very correct and it resonates with me because I have found myself in such situation several times.
I don’t feel good sharing this on public platform but I think I should because someone might learn from my experiences.Several years ago I met an elderly spiritualist to do a spiritual work for me ( Can’t state the work) and the work was prepared and before I did the work, I contacted another two spiritualist as I normally do to divine(reading) for me, one of the two spiritualists said I will regret doing the work the elderly spiritualists is about to perform and the other said I will become mad(meaning I will lose my sanity) but because I was naive and head strong back then and lack of patient, I went ahead to do the work. On Friday evening before I went for the ritual, I became slightly sick from food poison and eventually lead to me feeling under the weather, fever (This was a Warning to me but I ignored the warning) but I took drugs so I can feel better before midnight. I felt better after few hours and I left my hotel for the mission. I performed the work at 1am (Early hours of Saturday) at the cemetery, and when I finished, the work didn’t work because my spirit became a shield for me (Protected me from my own desires). When I returned from the cemetery to the elderly spiritualists that same night, the elderly spiritualists (92 years old) was shocked the work he prepared didn’t work, he was so disappointed knowing fully well he have disappointed not only me but also someone that brought me to him. I left his place angry and confused because I know the elderly Spiritualist is competent and so is someone who introduced me to the elderly Spiritualist. I called the man who link me up with the 92 years old Spiritualist, the man(Spiritualist) told me that I should wait behind and return back to the elderly Spiritualist to do the same work but differently. I already was upset because it cost me a lot to do the failed work, so I left the town and returned back home. Getting home is where the problem started, I couldn’t sleep, something inside me told me the spirit summoned during the work I just did that failed didn’t returned back. Whenever I close my eyes, someone was hitting me, even when walking around the house it was like someone is following me and pulling me. After a while, I called one of the two spiritualists that warned me and i explained the situation to him, and he told me I was right about what I thought his happening, he then performed a ritual, slaughter a goat and took the head to the crossroad and did other things, immediately everything stopped. He told me that something extraordinary was responsible for the failure of the work the elderly Spiritualist did, because the old man did a very good work and the old man have been doing that same work for advance men for years and it was all successful whenever he did it for them.
Later, I realized that I would have lose my sanity and die if i didn’t call the Spiritualist that slaughter the goat on time. And if the work the old man(92 year old Spiritualist) did had worked, meaning how wish it was successful, I would have died in less than 10years and all my assets will go with me blowing into thin air.By the way, a cousin of mine did similar SPIRITUAL work the 92 years old Spiritualist did for me that failed, the work was way too heavy for his blood, and the worst is he didn’t complete it. He went mad last year but was eventually healed by a competent Spiritualist/traditionalist.
Thank you ma’am for this great post, thank you for educating me. I believe a lot of people will learn from this your post and apply it to their Spiritual life.
Stay Blessed OBARA. Be safe.

Thank you for this comment my darling Ben. I love when people relate real life experience and you are quite a story teller also. Kudos to your head and what saved you. I recognize the work and what’s its for, you are indeed lucky.
Stay Blessed!

Hi Obara!
I’ve noticed in the comments you discussed menstruation, and the power that the woman holds which can affect certain works. I see that there’s a parallel with this topic of menstruation in some religions.
For example, the fact that women are not allowed to enter some places of worship while on their period because they are see as “unclean”. Is this because they are so powerful during this time, and they are being told this to downplay that power? Or simply due to a patriarchal ignorance that may have been passed down?Love and light, hope you’re well.
-
Hi Sim, I love questions because through them the teaching continues.
In our beautiful tradition of Ifa/Orisha, if you are a woman and if you have your menses, one or the other or both there are certain things you cannot do. With the period, its the touching or going near the medicines. The gender (being female) has to do with seeing ODU during initiation and the story behind this can be found in our holy scripture of Ofun Meji and also Ogbe Ogunda (another story but with the same message), among other Odu’s.
Yes, in our tradition there are holy scriptures and verses, but they are too vast to be placed inside a book.
In Orangun Meji (nick name for Ofun Meji), Orunmila, owner of the sacred Ifa oracle did divination before he went to the bush to find a leaf he needed for medicine.
He had cast Ifa (divination) before he went, and was told that he would meet a woman there. The woman would be unusual in her looks, the Yoruba call it Oromodimodi, (Yoruba’s forgive my spelling o!). This means powerful woman in the Bush.
When he went there, he saw the woman. He approached and asked her to marry him, she accepted under some terms and conditions.She told him that his wives must never see her face and no one should put light to her face (take torch light and take it to her dwelling). He agreed.
Orunmila ( we refer to him as Ifa most often) took her home and gave her her own living space.
He then told his wives that they should bring food to her but cautioned them to never enter her dwelling, leave the food somewhere outside and he warned them never bring torch light there. They agreed.He left to go to the Kings palace one day, to divine for the King. While he was there the wives planned together to storm the room and see for themselves what kind of woman this was. Why was she so special!
They took torch light and all of them stormed the place where this special wife was.
Orunmila (Ifa), was at the Kings palace, but while there he felt something was wrong at home, he knew a great violation had happened and so he told the King that he has to rush home.
All the wives who had rushed inside the space where the Oromodimodi was became blind (the Babalawo who tells the story said their eyes were closed).
When Orunmila got there, the Oromodimodi accused him of not following her instructions and she told him that wherever she is ever again, women cannot look her face (See her) and then she turned to Odu.
The story said Orunmila washed his wives eyes with Ewe ero, a Concoction made of a combination of three leaves
.
Even now when Ifa initiation is being done, all in attendance eyes will be washed with this concoction. Why because powerful Odu is around. Whoever sees this without their eyes being washed can go blind, man or woman.She (Odu) will be careful hidden, but just in case……
Only men can see her and after his eyes have been washed and when he does, he can never tell what he has seen. This Yoruba tradition is beautiful!So Odu is feminine energy and as such she is powerful. Women themselves has Odu hidden inside her body which is the womb.
No woman can see her own womb, this is the source of life within.
Inside Odu is written the destiny of all and sundry, and speaks through Ifa about it.
So too it is life and it’s journey.This has nothing to do with Patriarchal Ignorance. Foolish men (speaking of the ignorant ones), would hear “No woman can see Odu” and without knowledge think that it is because they are the more powerful beings.
But they do not have a womb, therefore it is them that has to SEE it. Women cannot, because they would be seeing their own power and that would be too much for them spiritually wise.
See the comment I made to Kay about period for your further understanding of that.Love and Light

It depends, the way the Universe wants to convey the messages. But a message is a message anyway it comes.

Amazing post O! Two things:
1. I see a lot of the comments and questions are about feminine energy and I too look forward to your post on it. When I read what the the message was to the Universe by adding goat blood to the river it made me wonder about a woman menstruating. Should women stay away from the river or the sea when they have their period or is the power she possesses at that time on a similar frequency as the power of these waters so she is more in tune at that time and can enter with no possible repercussions?2. I am in awe of spiritual work and absolutely shy away from DIY because ah nuh joke ting! You already know I’ll ask a million questions to make sure I’m following your instructions to the T for anything. I have noted that I never feel alone when doing work you and spirits have authorized me to do by myself. I hear the guidance and at times feel as though I’m not consciously acting but my Ori and guides have taken over. Powerful and humbling experience. I revere your competence! And I worry for all the new age spiritualists that are using YouTube to “teach” them.
-
Thank you RBH..Yes, it is not a good practice to enter any water while on your period. As for the you tubers, I worry myself.
-
-
What is wildjecko? I’ve never heard this term before.
-
“I noticed my blood was running”, are you saying that your period came after the sacrifice was placed?, my enemy is confused because then you said when you got home hubby demanded hubby demanded his right, so maybe misunderstand the blood running issue, please clarify for me. Thanks for the story,
-
Ase Hamyfat my darling, long time! Nice to see you hear, and with a lovely story as in comment. I love stories, but seem to be the only one giving it.
Thoughts are different from when spirit speaks, but they can be taken for the same, it will take some time to understand this, and I will teach this to real student when we have one on one’s, also in mentoring some people that many have been asking me about.
.
Lies are NEVER good, and the truth is not always conducive to your life. A lie can save a life, and the truth can get a person killed.Lies and truth serves their purpose. They play important roles in humans lives and in history, as most of what humans perceives as truth within history are repetitious lies turned truth. Humans!
In the case of a lie coming to fruition as you explained in your comment,this has to do with the frequency you carry, to be able to manifest words into being however false..
I want to explain this to you my dear, since this is a portion you have experienced, but this platform is an open space for all and sundry, and unfortunately my enemies read this blog and they are like a hungry dog searching for bones to devour,I will not feed them..
I will not give them certain knowledge, ignorant they are and ignorant they shall remain throughout eternity.
When we speak,I will enlighten you my dear..May peace reign in your household for ever, and may the light of the Universe light your path way, and may you in some way, shape, or form, illuminate another’s path, as part of your human service. Ase Olodumare!

welcome,Sue, longest time

Thank you sue. It was desperation and ignorance that lead me into doing such. I’m glad I came out of the situation alive and healthy. So many people have died from such. Now, I’m wiser and stronger.
Have a great and productive week, sue.
Stay Blessed. -
Greetings Obara Meji!
I honour you everyday in my life ever since I have started paying attention to my spiritual life as a result of the awakening of my inner self the moment I was led to this website and interactions with you.
Yes! I can recount on many occasions in my past where I have been rescued from near death situation and from mysterious circumstances. Truly my Spirit Guides has been behind these mysterious rescue. When I look back, it’s now making a lot of sense to me from the higher knowledge you sharing that comes from the Higher Realm
Please, I just want you to know that, I so much appreciate you and your service.
What I have learnt from your articles is more than anything I have learned in my entire life
I honour you specially because you are a special Being for our time…
I know I will be one of your greatest student…Ase!
The Spirits will continue to guide and lead you…Ase!
-
Ase Ase Ase!!!
-
-
Welcome back my dear
-
Yea o!
-
I enjoyed reading this post I learn alot from it today and I pray my Ori, IFA and Olodumare guide me always and you too Obara Meji Ase!!!
Also I do like to know the significant of other days like you stated that of Friday and Saturday
-
I will write a post in these days one day
-
-
I just read this article and its very enlightening. Because of you I just threw away my myrrh incense, frankincense and myrhh incense and my tarot cards. Its crazy cause I’m addicted to watching tarot readings on Youtube but I’m gonna shy away from that as well.Wheew! How should one cleanse themselves after getting rid of taraot cards? Under what circumstances can you use tarot or should I just cut it out altogether?
-
Hi Sheeka,
The questions that you ask here are very important and I am proud of you for the ability to even think of these questions to ask. Whenever a person may have opened a “spiritual door” through any form of spiritual “malpractice”, the best way to remove themself from whatever natural reaction that action may cause, would be to fast for 3 days. This would be from sun up to sun down, with nothing to eat or drink until the time you break the fast, but the person should be prayerful every 3 hours until sun down. Then you may break the fast with something light like a fruit or biscuit.
People who are adept to spiritual knowledge will concur with what I have written here, but more vulgar folks may shun this information.
Now, you did not have to throw away your items, because this as well can be dreadful. Since you have been using it, Beings, whether they are of Light or Darkness, have attached themselves to it, and throwing it away could incur repercussions.
Here is hoping you are not experiencing anything negative in your life.
Spiritual things must be tended to according to Laws, and before a person delves unto a certain path, he must be worthy of that path. His worthiness is not determined by himself but by Spirit. If he has not been appointed by the Universe for his work, then he exposes himself to the dangers of the work. When one has passed the many examinations by Unseen forces to determine a human worthy of Divine work, then such a person has been given Divine authority, and he is therefore protected by the Divine that he now represents.
But when a curious human sees only the work, and hears only curious words by spiritual people, and this human imitates him, this human is under no protection, because he acts of his own accord. So what will this sort of human do with power that he does not understand? What will he do when he summons what he can not detect? When he summons what vibrates at frequencies that can drive him to madness, sickness, or even death? Such a human acts under no Divine authority but his own curiosity.
What becomes of such a human?
Anyone who is meant for the Path, must, like all others from the beginning of time until ever more, be worthy of such Path by undergoing the transformation, which is often a very jarring experience.

Obara Meji wrote a new post 4 years, 9 months ago
Religion vs. Tradition: What's The Difference?
Yesterday, I wrote a WhatsApp status that attracted many comments and questions. But I found one question in particular very […]-
Oore Yeye OOOO, Osun OOOOO!
Obara Meji, I salute you! Your willingness to teach is illuminating my path – thank you.
On this journey, especially in this time, the greater access we have to information enables us to live a “balanced” life.
In this post, you explained the IFA tradition beautifully and the “reasoning” provided me with the confirmation I needed in a remarkable way. There is great relief in not feeling the need to “defend” my affiliation with IFA. There is no need too argue or force another to convert – Tradition is all inclusive, it is limitless. Why would I resort to less?I would love for you to expound on one thing:
All Forces has two sides to them and both opposition forces always walk together. The Negative is the elder of the Positive and will always walk before the Positive.
Why is the Negative considered the elder of the Positive? How do you explain one going before the other? I have an idea but I’d prefer your clarity 🙂
-
Thank you for the Question IB. In the post, Negative represent that which is not good, or darkness, it represent, quarrel, fight, disturbance, uncertainty, and more,. Nature and all things within teaches this, thunder and lighting strikes (not that this is bad, but can be frightening for some, and lightning can be dangerous), before rain falls to cleanse.
If you are able to study the elemental forces, you will see the flip side of everything therein. The negative or what is termed “bad” always comes before the good. Whenever anything positive is to happen in someones life or within the environment, or even the world, the bad,must occur.
If the road is bad and needs fixing, it must be dug up, and new road put in place. Drivers.commuters and pedestrians alike will be inconvenienced, but when all is done, there will be a pleasant outcome that will benefit all who will use that path way. making it safer and better.
A mother carries her child for the gestation period of 9 months (most often, as it should be). During that time,she is ill, uncomfortable, she gains weight, has mood swings and more. At the birthing table, she cries, beseech and moans for this to be over, and when the child makes its entry, it is joy unspeakable and full of glory.
The boss picks on you and the co-workers makes your life a living hell, and you quit, only to find a better job, with better benefits, and more pay and even respect to boot. You look back at the agony you faced before this blessing came, the tears you she, the prayers you made.
If you look back in your life or those you are closest to, you will see the pattern of the negative coming first, and if you are willing to endure, then the positive rolls in.
They say that before there was anything here on planet earth, there was darkness, then Light came and here we are
.-
Thank you for responding.
I can relate to that in several ways 🙂
I find it helpful to avoid viewing occurrences in the typical sense of “positive” or “negative” and it definitely helps.

Everyone evolve at there own pace. I remember questioning everything about Christianity and I was deemed as strange or going against God words when I questioned things. I felt bad becuz of how ppl looked at me and deemed me to be the bad guy. I struggled for along time trying to find the right place to fit in. I was wise enough to look at all religion and not condemn them but still seek what I was looking for…
This one of the reason I thank u Ms. Obara becuz u have been that one person whose blog made me know I wasn’t strange or just being rebellious. Your post means so much to me as I have learn so much. I might not reach the level at yet some thing I am yet to fathom the idea as I have not being expose fully but it just mek sense. I thank you again as I was expose to IFA, Osun on this medium and I am truly grateful
-
You are welcome my darling. This is the thing with religion, they tell you if you go against their teachings, you are sinning. Sinning against what or who?Will God chastise you for wanting to learn, why can’t you be free to question things? what are they afraid of?
-
They’re afraid of losing tithes and offerings
-
I certainly don’t know.. if I am in a religion and it’s a problem to asked question or to seek clarification on things that makes no sense. Something is wrong and off

Once again another beautiful and rich post Ma’am. I’m not surprised though, but each time you teach, there is always some new revelation to see.
My questions are;
*You said if man can look at life from lesser place. By lesser place do you mean without worry of what will come tomorrow or when will it come or just looking at life without material attachments?
*What is happening to Sally is not that she’s being punished for offending a child of water but her misalignment with that energy due to her fight. Does this mean that Maya is in alignment with the energy if sweet waters and that’s what causes the problem for Sally?
*If Maya was not in alignment with the sweet water energy, would Sally have had any problems after that fight?
*Is it possible to also be punished for offending a child of sweet water energy even as you say Sally isn’t being punished for that reason? I mean can the Orisha take that action to teach the offender a lesson?
Big up Ma’am Obara!!! You always drop golden teachings on here.
Thanks so much… Love and light…
-
Hi Kay, thank you very much for the questions.
1) A “lesser place” as it relates to the post, means a person is not well advanced in their perception or understanding of spirituality.
2) No it doesn’t mean that Maya is in alignment with sweet water. It means that knowingly or unknowingly, Maya is a child of water. That is the realm she comes from. She is just in physical form but in fact is the embodiment of water spirit walking among us. So Sally, even if she was water, herself, and did not know, the fact that whatever she did or said to offend Maya was so disturbing or offensive, said water, as energy could react to her. So Sally, let’s say, “manipulated” that energy to work against her. Maya did not cause Sally’s repercussion, Sally caused it herself. So the Babalawo will now proscribe a sacrifice to manipulate the energy back into Sally’s favor.
3) #2 should answer this question.
4) Yes it can be and it has even happened in my own case. I had a sister who offended me deeply, and to this day water still disturbs her. Anywhere she goes, her house floods. She will do her own spiritual work, despite what I might advise her, but she knows and understands nothing about Ifa. So until she can appease the energy she offended, water will continue disturbing her. OH also another way the energy can be appeased is if the same person who was offended now genuinely forgives the person in the same depths at which the offense was caused. (I tried forgiving her but she keeps offending me so mi nuh business). For her own good I stay away from her so she doesn’t go and drown in her bathtub lollllll
-
Thanks for clearing my head with your answers. Lol @so she doesn’t go and drown in her bathtub…
You’re a gem, a uniquely rare one i must say.
-
Blushing, thanks Kay
-
As i always do, i came back to read this post again. For the umpteenth time and also read comments from others because there are things to learn from the answers you give to.
I must say the comments i see from other bloggers gives me so much joy on this topic.
Whoever doesn’t get this cannot understand Ifa until the day their Ori forcefully opens their inner eyes lol.
Even people following Ifa presently do not understand it this way Ma’am… Please blush all you want you deserve it.
Like you always say “all religions are valid, so long as it preaches peace and love”
A very good morning and a good day to you yours.

No it does not. When you climb a step, you climb one at a time. If you tried two at a time, will you not stumble? Will you not be confused? It is the same with trying to balance several different ways of life (or religions) at once. It a person hears a horn in one ear, and drums in the other, it would certainly drive them crazy. Along with this, everything carries its own vibration. Christianity has its own and so does Ifa. There are different levels in spiritual roads, this is why we climb from one place up to another. Choose a road and climb a step at a time.

Thank you Lola for this comment

Thank you

WOW Sis I have one perfect for you and your readers!
Its Power of Myth by Joseph Campbell a Professor who studied various religions and he analyze the difference between religion and Tradition just as you are explaining here-
It is very old 1980s but you can find the videos here and there but it is 6 Parts in full if I can remember-
Explain alot of stuff you always talking about with religions and the stories (myth they use)EXTREMELY insightful. Some of the things he talks about are exactly what I hear you talk about in terms of how to live, there is no good or bad! duality! and many more
I am going to search and watch it again actually-
Yeah man, have his audios and books of the story of Gilgamesh, yes his work is awesome
-
I am going to check out his other stuff-
Thanks Sis!

Thank you for taking your time to write an important topic as this. I love your examples and how you break everything down. Thank you for making this clear once again Obara Meji. Reading this topic is evolving. I love the end of this post is so deep.
“We exist so that we may evolve.Evolution has no expiration. So there continues the story…”
Obara Meji
Thank you for sharing .-
You are very welcome my dear, thanks for reading

Hello Obara! Again, what a beautiful post ❤️
Would it be correct to say that, the stories in various religions are all truths – but are interpreted and retold in different ways (some with an agenda)? Religion goes wrong with complete worship and devotion & often limits the acceptance of duality that exists in the universe.
This is what I gather from this post..Also, I know that you often speak of “good/evil” things happening as apart of our journey in this realm.
In the instance of Sally, if she went to the Babalawo before the argument – and he told her how to avoid it, and she did -could this avoidance have possibly interrupted her journey (as it relates to spiritual elevation)? I hope this question makes sense, lol.Love and light.
-
Hi Sim,
Sorry for the late response. But thank you for the questions!
1) Stories in the Bible, in Koran, in the Hindu Text or otherwise can not be looked at as Truths as what we perceive with Truth to be. Anything that is coming from an unknown source or from ancient times, has had eons to be remixed, watered down, made up for teaching purposes, etc. However, there is something, as we know it called Spirituality, and spirituality carries with it a particular energy that manifests in our world as tools to guide and prepare us and teach us as travel along life’s way.
So if we see mythology in anyone of these dogmas or doctrines it can be interpreted or believed to be Truth, because its main goal is to teach or pass along wisdom. Therefore, we should not think the about the wholeness or Holiness of it, only how it affects our lives, our thinking, our consciousness, our journey, our beliefs etc.
There are no Truths. Just as there are no Lies.
This is an Intermediate to Advanced post, so if you don’t really understand it now, come back after some time and see if you digest it all in a new light!
“Religion goes wrong with complete worship and devotion & often limits the acceptance of duality that exists in the universe.”
Hm. Not necessarily. Religion doesn’t go wrong with worship and devotion (and this does not mean that worship and devotion is or isn’t the “correct” way to evolve, it is merely the level that they operate until they experience self-realization and further advancement). Religion goes wrong with limiting evolvement, encouraging limitation, and discouraging searching for knowledge and Truth anywhere outside of these organizations. This is where it goes wrong and why it will fade from existence if the Earth moves into a more advanced state, making more elementary and stagnating spiritual lifestyles cease to exist.
Duality is also a limitation. The concepts of good and bad are the viewpoints of the current consciousness of a large collective of humanity. When one evolves, one realizes that everything exists for the purpose of evolution. When one advances, the idea of Oneness is a more accepted reality.

Thank you, learning so much

Thanks to you ma you really said alot in this post that made me understand some certain things that I felt ignorant about. moreover I stop reading Bible lately since I decided to follow my part as African Spirituality and everytime I always find answer to so many unquestionable act in the bible that made me believe the Bible is one of the conspiracy theories. I’m happy to find your blog may Olodumare keep guiding you great Obara Meji. Ase!!!

Good morning ma’am, great post. Even though am well acquainted with what you wrote, this post reminds me of something very important. As someone who has done a lot of appeasement, the palm oil sacrifice resonate with me. Sometimes an addition of biscuits, cake, kola nut, egg and so on. Sometimes you begin with pouring of water in the road (crossroad), depending on the appeasement…
The palm oil is poured all over the items during which you will be making your intention or speak as told by the babalawo and immediately when you are done, you walk away from the sacrifice without looking back until you get to your house or walk into your house.
The oil is to loose everything that is tight in someone’s life, to make everything that is hard become soft, and so on. Again, depending on the appeasement.Please ma’am I have some questions that I would appreciate if you give me answers.
My first QUESTION is why is it that sometimes there is little or no changes in the situation a person find him or herself even after undergoing the appeasement, even after doing several sacrifices as told by ifa via the babalawo. Sometimes the person who did the sacrifices doesn’t find any changes in his or her life even after it as been confirmed that the sacrifice was accepted.
My second QUESTION is why is it that some appeasement can be done on someone else’s behalf but some sacrifices must be carried out by the person that want to appease. His or her presence must be needed.
Though I have being given different answers from different spiritualist and traditionalist. But I know In life, there are levels. All fingers are not same likewise the head.
We have one VISIBLE HEAD but some people have SEVEN like some seven head spirits.
WE WERE NOT BORN EQUAL.That’s my questions ma’am, I hope you understand the questions.
Thank you and Stay Blessed.
-
Benjamin by you expounding on the palm oil I made reference to, shows me that you have missed the entire point of the post. However I will answer your question, and by the way, what you just described as appeasement may be for what was prescribed for YOU, but I need to let anyone who read your comment know that sacrifice is not like that always, and what Benjamin has described is what was prescribed perhaps for him to a particular deity for a particular reason. We have to be responsible for information we are putting out to the public Benjamin. Your description above was for You, I reiterate once more.
To answer your question about sacrifices not working for you (and I know you will come back and say you know this already, but please know that it is the humblest calf who will suck the most milk).
Sacrifice is done to shift an energy, to clear the way. Most often after the sacrifice, immediately things will change but because your eyes are glued to the window looking to blatantly see a flood of goodness coming to you, you will miss that all week the baby in the crib has been crying, and now the baby is quiet, gurgling and playful.
The energy that created the problem came from the cries that the child created with it’s cries. Now it’s solved but you are still looking.
Be wise, although wisdom is not sold in shops, it is given to those who have released ego, and for those deemed worthy.
.
People respect when change is loud instead of subtle..The Babalwos will not explain this to you, because it is not their job to do so, you should be humble enough to understand subtle changes in your life, not everything will be drastic.
Then there are the sacrifices that no matter what you do, if your Ori (your head) wants a particular thing for you, nothing will allow it to budge.
My family member has been working on her job for fourteen years. She is an Ifa Initiate and makes her sacrifice all the time.Since Covid19 came in, the job began to fight her.She cried everyday, she made sacrifices and still the fight continued. She did divination with me and I told her that because of her sacrifice, she is now moving onto her next phase in life. The spirit told her that, they (spirits) are making her uncomfortable so that she could move on.
She is yet to marry and have children, so leaving that place and onto the next, is where the energy will shift for her and there awaits her husband and children that she has been searching for. Things like these happen.
Sacrifice done correctly and through the direction of Odu and a competent Babalawo, works. Be wise, at times the sacrifice is to affect you 15 years from now and not NOW. Relax and trust. , . .
Also, if you have to be there when the sacrifice is to be done, at times a particular item has to touch your body, but there are solutions to that, if you are not able to be there personally.
I hope that these question satisfies your soul, read and read again before you respond, I am used to you, and your mind spins like a fan on its highest speed.
God Bless and thank you for the questions.
Please forgive typo’s and run on sentences.

Good morning Ma,
I honour you!
Each time you post an article, personally, you are taking me to a higher realm to show me all the answers to my questions I’ve been asking myself for so many years…
Thank you sooooo much for what you are doing. You are doing abundantly well for mankind. I sincerely appreciate your generous and humanitarian service. You don’t have to do this but you chose to do it to awake myself and so many others. I’m grateful…
The Spirits will continue to guide and lead you…
More blessings upon you!

” Everyone is where they ought to be we exist so that may evolve” this true wisdom thank you obara meji. My question is what are the likes and dislikes of people from sweet waters?
* If sally goes and apologised to maya for hurting her with words and maya accepts the apology wouldnt that pacify the energy she has offend?
*What are the characteristics of someone who is an embodiment of the energy FIRE?-
Hi bbeey,
1) Read the Nature Series Water post: https://www.embracingspirituality.com/2017/02/17/water-people-they-walk-among-us-and-theyre-real/
2) I answered similarly in a comment below. Here is what I replied:
“I had a sister who offended me deeply, and to this day water still disturbs her. Anywhere she goes, her house floods. She will do her own spiritual work, despite what I might advise her, but she knows and understands nothing about Ifa. So until she can appease the energy she offended, water will continue disturbing her. OH also another way the energy can be appeased is if the same person who was offended now genuinely forgives the person in the same depths at which the offense was caused. (I tried forgiving her but she keeps offending me so mi nuh business). For her own good I stay away from her so she doesn’t go and drown in her bathtub lollllll”

Thank you ma’am for the reply, I think I made a mistake with the way I structured my comment that’s why you misinterpreted everything. You always misinterpret my comments or replies. Even from the first day you replied my mail (No disrespect). I think perhaps, most times I don’t get my message across the right way or the way you will easily understand what am trying to say. That’s why I prefer speaking instead of writing (I told you that last year).
Firstly, anyone reading this should know that my comment wasn’t about the post. All I did was use a line in the post to ask a question while making reference to the post so that my comment wouldn’t be entirely outside the area of focus.
You are right, what I wrote about the palm oil was prescribed to me, I didn’t want to make the reply all about me that’s why i used those words, is just like you telling a story to people but you don’t want the people to know the story is about you, so you say the true story but in a different way.
When I was commenting, I knew you will understand that it is about me but i didn’t think that other people might think I expounded more on what you said about the palm oil, which wasn’t my intention.My intention was for you to have an idea of what my questions are about, that is why I explained the palm oil before the questions. I accept I made quite a mistake with the way I went about it (APOLOGY BY THE SIDE MA’AM).
I’m very well acquainted with all you said in your reply to my comment. To be precise, all you said, I already knew long time ago, the reason I asked you the questions is not because I’m ignorant of what am asking, is me trying to know if you will give me a different answer entirely that I can use for the purpose of GROWTH because of who you are.
The parable I used was misinterpreted by you as well. This parable “But I know In life, there are levels. All fingers are not same likewise the head.
We have one VISIBLE HEAD but some people have SEVEN like some seven head spirits.
WE WERE NOT BORN EQUAL.”What I meant by that parable was me saying that you might know more than the spiritualist and traditionalist that I have worked with in the past and some I’m still working with in regards to my questions, that you might give me a completely different answer because your gift is probably different from everyone else I have known. Some powers were given to some people, some were taught, some were bought, while for some people it is INATE.
Is like me saying in pidgin “A VILLAGE WHEN FAR, ANOTHER VILLAGE ‘DAY’ WEN FAR PASS AM”
You didn’t understand my comment completely because I wasn’t direct. That’s why at the end of my comment, I said, I hope you understand my questions.
That comment of mine wasn’t supposed be post in public platform by me, I always keep those kind of things private. I made a mistake, it was supposed be just Private(send to you privately) but I thought you might miss my mail, so as a result I might not get an answer. That’s why I dropped it here as a comment.
Lastly, I’m not EGOTISTICAL.
There are always going to be times when people are going to mistake my confidence for arrogance because they don’t understand the process I went through and how much I had to believe in myself in order to get to the point I am right now, in order for me to still me alive not dead.I’m PROUD not ARROGANT. I’m not humble. I can’t feel less of myself. I don’t sell myself short. I think people should stop telling others to be humble, people need to start saying “BE AWESOME”. I’m Benjamin Franklyn Jr. standing with my head up high, soon to be FRANKLYN the GREAT.
Thank you ma’am, I love you so much, you know that. Please don’t forget am a student of life, am still your student. Nobody is perfect. Treat me…
God Bless You.
Stay Blessed and Be Safe.
Have a great and productive week.-
Below is not a parable but a saying. I made a mistake in my comment above. Is supposed to be “you misinterpreted my SAYING as well”.
“But I know In life, there are levels. All fingers are not same likewise the head.
We have one VISIBLE HEAD but some people have SEVEN like some seven head spirits.
WE WERE NOT BORN EQUAL” -
Benjamin, you never disappoint. Didn’t I write that you will come back and say that you already know what I am explaining?
Here is your comment:
“I’m very well acquainted with all you said in your reply to my comment. To be precise, all you said, I already knew long time ago,”
Here is mine:
“To answer your question about sacrifices not working for you (and I know you will come back and say you know this already,”I do not know about you, but my enemy does not know everything, I always refer to myself as a student, a forever one. I am fascinated by life and the Universe and I can never stop learning it. When I learn something, I then share it here with you all.
Also, it is important that you read with understanding. When I wrote this:
“Be wise, although wisdom is not sold in shops, it is given to those who have released ego, and for those deemed worthy.”
It was not in any way aimed at you, it was a general statement.
Spirituality is broad and requires humility and patience in order to see and recognize Truth. If either of us is too sure that we “already know” everything, we will miss knowledge opportunities. And knowledge can come from anywhere, in any form, rich or poor, beggar, thief, or child.
.
However Benjamin, this is a place where we all come and learn,in peace, love and light. And no one here is or should ever be in competition for who knows what. For none of us knows anything, we are teachers, but we are also students eternally.However, I am an elder in the eyes of the Universe and must be respected as such, for I have come very far in my own journey and I am doing my service to humanity.
P.S ALL of my stories, the ones I write about myself are 110% TRUE! If it is my story, I will blatantly say so, as I have since the inception of this blog. If the story does not belong to me, but I wish to teach from it, I will respect the person’s privacy and drastically change names and stick only to the main points and not every detail. If the story is just a fictional example for the purpose of making a point, this, too, will be stated.
I love you also my beloved. God Bless.

By the way, I did as instructed by you ma’am, I took my time to read it over and over again before I replied. Sacrifices works, that am certain about. I have done a lot that changed different situation. I have been on the road for long, I have seen what seem impossible turn possible just with the help of sacrifice. My question is not me insinuating that sacrifices doesn’t work, I used the word “SOMETIMES”

Thank you Lola. I always encourage people to read the comments, lots of jewels drops there.

I didn’t disappoint you when I wrote ” I’m very well acquainted with all you said in your reply to my comment. To be precise, all you said, I already knew long time ago”
That’s because it is true. The TRUTH IS CONSTANT. If I don’t know I will tell you, thank you for educating me.
The truth won’t change to fit a situation.Most of what I said ‘I’m very well acquainted with”, i learned them from ES. Perhaps you have forgotten your blog is a source of vast spiritual knowledge. People’s comments and replies that are educative are saved in my notepad and colour note. I read them in my spare time and I do more research and ask questions about what am not familiar with or to.
I comment and reply with the intent to share knowledge, to learn and to grow. Not with the intent to argue. I read to understand, not to argue!
Let me state clearly that I asked you the questions with no intent to test you or compare you to anyone. It was simply to get more knowledge, there are things some elderly people have been privy to, that some others might not…
I guess I will stop writing(commenting and replying) for a while. I will just read. Perhaps until after I have given you a call (hopefully soon). I’m way too passionate, I think people always have misconception about someone like me. I understand why.
Apology by the side, if I have offended you in ways I might not understand.
Stay Blessed Ma’am.

I will not comment again, but Ben there you go again. If you offended me, I would tell you. I am an Aries woman,and we are blunt.
This is why in the first comment I told you to read and read again before you understanding you.
No one is chastising you or accusing you of anything. Your comments are welcome.
If you feel any way it is on YOU, not on ME.
Do whatever you like, but you are always welcome here. Good night!
