Muti = Witchcraft or Muti = Spiritual Technology?

We have grown up and lived with a whitewashed and colonised mentality that has been despising our natural authentic powers....Muti if used well can be a positive productive power... Every black culture has its own spiritual technology arsenal...people and animals are still healed from physical ailments, In my country Lesotho we heal animals' broken bones with a spiritual technology called Thobela, from evil spirits afflictions, weather and natural disasters are still combatted with spiritual technology...I believe we can repel typhoons and hurricanes with our technology...we should be exporting that skill to Asian and American countries prone to hurricanes...I wouldn't be blogging about this if I didn't feel so deeply about it....Our "creation" factory produces black souls with innate powers everyday but everyday black souls die with their powers untapped....breaks my heart...
Simply because many of us have been programmed to relegate our powers to witchcraft and sorcery...we look upon our traditional healers strangely and people who choose to consult them are made to feel "heathen...pagan" sometimes they get stoned to death....makes me want to puke......I asked an old friend I was in varsity with some twenty something years back who is now a shaman to evaluate this post before I publish it and Shaman Nozipho Hoohlo had this to say "Remember as people mostly our African people are scared of their light. Anything African is considered dark/ untested. look at the story of dagga, for years we knew it had healing powers but Europeans made us believe it was all bad. But tobacco has been killing folks since slaves left Africa. Muti is an African medical practice. Cheers to Africa's self discovery."

But what then do we do to people who abuse muti by engaging in witchcraft and sorcery? We overhaul our judiciary and legal systems - make them align with our consciousness.. Make them address our own challenges... Maybe even set up WITCHCRAFT COURTS. The moral of story is "live your black lives the most black way its blackily possible"

Actionable idea: I consulted with a THOBELA HEALING SPECIALIST in my village and he has agreed to train me...I will lead you through the process with a video later but I will be trying to use my new acquired skill on people too...gotta get some add-on to my first aid skill set...about time we evolve our powers....

The Strategy.... Spirituality, Metaphysics part 1; : Who stole our God?

You can press remote control buttons as many times as you can or long as you like or maybe till your fingers get sore but if the batteries are wrongly assembled  or connected incorrectly there never will be  any communication between the remote control device and  your TV or radio....God is that TV and the remote control is YOU Black Africa...the infrared is the communication between YOU AND God ..you get the idea right? I have seen and heard well meaning "Men of God" pray and petition God to bless Africa for as long as I have lived but like they say in South Africa "dololo" (dololo means nothing, nada! Zilch)... Only violence, hunger, malnutrition, deadly epidemics, poverty seem to be spreading across the black African community.
Somebody must have stole our God or we are praying and petitioning Him or Her the wrong way....there are more churches or religious institutions per capita among black race than any other race today yet there are more unfulfilled and spiritually troubled souls than there are anywhere in the face of the earth....Most religious folks are just as frustrated as the rest of us with their "PRAYER REQUESTS RESPONSE RATE OR EFFICACY OF PRAYER INDEX)...this is like the measure of how many of our prayers are answered and how many are shelved...
In the privacy of our hearts we pray and we go through lives of quiet desperation when our prayers are ignored.... Its a common cycle in black lives yet we don't want find out why this is happening... Why so few of our prayers are answered...maybe I got too personal here but I would happy if there is anyone in my black community who claim a high prayer request response rate could step up and give advice... We can even challenge other races for prayer request response competition and be like " Let's see whose prayers get answered suckers!"
Don't even want to say anything about preachers in our communities who monitize worship and prayer.
Since this community is about practical actionable ideas I got to ask;
So now what's the strategy? What do we do so we can experience God in a productive way not the "TYPE AMEN WAY"
Random: what do you think was the prayer request response rate of traditional ancestral worship?

The Journey begins - "From dumb as hell" to "Authentic power"

First of all, a journey has a starting point and a destination...The starting point is obvious to the naked eye. Its this hell black Africans have to experience everyday, every hour, every second of their existence.. Exploitation, oppression from other races, constant destructive perception that we are born incomplete or lacking of perfection somehow, so we modify everything about us...we feel we have to eat what other races eat, we have to dress like they dress, we have to have complexion like theirs, hair like theirs, nails like theirs, use speech tones they use....we admire what they admire, their music, their art, their cultures, their heritages. We worship our God through their rituals and styles.
Of all these sad realities at a starting point of this journey perhaps the most sickening is the hate black Africans have towards their own kind...Xenophobia among black Africans is steadily reaching planetary proportions... However this blog isn't about resistance....no! Never! Resistance feels cool but it hasn't gotten us anywhere...just look at our literature and media. They are saturated with resistance but we remain vulnerable.

DESTINATION:
Its not yet a reality so we have to IMAGINE...(maybe I should have started with this because the starting point is depressing...and there is already enough of that depression everyday for a black African...) Now let's IMAGINE;
IMAGINE our race embracing their uniqueness, comfortable in their own skin... Picture our race shaving their steel wool hair and exporting to Europe. IMAGINE living with so much food security because we finally decide what's food and what's culinary appealing... Most of the stuff we eat we have been programmed to experience as yummy and delicious....most of us don't believe worms or insects can taste great to our taste buds....I think you know why..
What do you IMAGINE for starters?
