[@theshwarma3102]

@@debrawilliams1693 Debra is a nice Jewish name after a Jewish Prophetess. Maybe you have not yet tapped into your prophetic potential? Maybe calling Israel Cursed is not a recipe for success? I would hardly call Balestinian society blessed as well. Unless you prize honour killings and FGM - all signs of shamed men who haven’t healed Yishmael’s wounds from Hagar’s abandonment.

thank you so so much for uploading this talk. as an African woman desperately seeking spirit and seeking to heal myself and others, this talk was so enlightening and so powerful

Jesus my soul needs a transcript of this on hand. This man clearly received the blessing he’s speaking about because he can really cast a spell. No words are wasted

[@TrueWalker88]

The transcript is there in the description. You can copy and paste it. It will need editing, with all the timestamps and lack of punctuation, but at least you can have a template. I have done that with other videos and it's a good practice because it makes you review the words even more closely. You are so right, every sentence he says is so full that I could reflect for days on this one 49 minute talk.

[@logos6789]

For all the knowledge I've gather I could never understand why I was the subject of envy, my mother told me other kids would bite me in kindergarten, I even lived a life under my true potential to let others take the lead and the praises so I would be out of arms way. And even then while living poorly I would still get the hate, the betrayal and the reaching out. But now I know they saw or felt something deeper which I'm gonna respect and praise again, and inspire other "villagers" to do the same. Thank you no amount of praise could touch me in life but now I feel blessed. Peace be upon you.

[@SaralinaLove]

He is an exquisite being. We need him now more than ever. Whata. miracle we have his recordings. Everyone in our world needs to know him. needs to hear his wisdom and we need to arise this within ourselves now. This wisdom is inside of us. he is so profound. i wish he was still here to see what is happening. all that is happening is all that he's talked about. My prayers are with his beautiful wife in his home town in Africa. Blessings to you all!

Best analysis of energy of America and colonialism and white supremacy and modernity I've heard. And how many of us are trapped in it. Holding vision of a world without nations, where humanity recognizes the universe in ourselves and each other.

[@archiesimpson5172]

As a lost child of Europe, I have spent the last 20+ years dedicating myself to reclaiming the broken ties of my own ancestors. In doing so, I have rejected modern Western WASPy culture, with the exception of tools like the internet.

[@jlionmenelik77]

I agree with you. The energy in America 🇺🇸 is so toxic.

Malidoma is Great

[@jk6869]

This is just so … correct. When I hear it, I know it is right. I wish I could have attended these conferences. I have looked and found no mens’ content that is equal. Surely it was the energies of men like this, and Bly, Meade, Shaw, etc. which made MMC what it was, and why in comparison what is offered today seems to be mealy mouthed pap that has forgotten myth and spirit as much as the latest trends and narratives these offerings emulate.

[@m.lewizz3297]

It’s so interesting, because what he describing it, reminds me of the relationship of Atoms covalent bonds, ion bond, and the free radicals

[@zahabugold549]

Everyone is asking a good question, but there isn't a clear way to support the healing of the sister. I am not sure if I can agree that women have to heal each other. What if that opportunity has not come up? What about healing for healing sake for those in need regardless of sex? Isn't to divide us by gender divides our blessing?

[@IsabelleMN11]

+Zahabu Gold I think that what he meant is that there is a healing that must come from a place of understanding the wounds. That is something that no matter how much a man tries, he cannot fully understand the wounds of the woman. and it goes the other way as well. So there is a healing of women that we first need to do among each other, before we even go outward to now heal the relationship of man to woman

[@jlionmenelik77]

@@IsabelleMN11 it like white people can't understand our pain as black people experience the system of white supremacy. As a black man no white person can understand how I feel not even black women can because she not a man. Another reason why I reject the transgendeer stuff at the end of the day there not woman.

Love Elder Some.. We talked about the curse of poverty... or FORCIBLY impoverishment of a continent and it's people. If you place SOMEONE in captivity and STRIP them of the basic physiological needs.. you BLOCK their natural evolution towards Self-Actualization. If you keep a segment of your global population denuded of its languages customs traditions... you are DELIBERATELY seeking to KEEP that marginalized group from aspiring to their full potential. As far back as the 1400's when the "🐽🐐🐽" PAHANAS begun their REBIRTH OF LEARNING = RENAISSANCE.... They did so by way of the inquisition. So many NOW are in this mode of SEEKING.... LAW OF ATTRACTION... The ones coming out of the COMA seeks out the ones... that have been blessed with enlightenment. Oftentimes not in a positive way. For many they come under disguises with the intent of betrayal. Be us continental or diaspora... I see the injuries to both the DESCENDANTS that were stolen... and those left behind. WE THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES AND THE OVERSOULS ELDERS are in the process of healing. The initiations that we have encountered this past 4 months delved into this SPACE with painful clarification.. The Blessing of Betrayal. Healing generational curses. Shattering the programs of the ENSLAVED minds. "🐽🐐🐽" Now the "antagonist" is saturated... outer pigments no longer combines these generational PTSDS TRAUMATIC LIFE PRINTS. May we f.ind the C.our.age to heal and be HEALERS.

Sol Raat KaBa, peace, fam. I'm a continental sister who's lived here most of my life. If it's any comfort, our folks on the continent are also fighting for identity, spirit and sanity.
