Maybe you grew up practising a religion. Did you ever ask yourself why you need a religion, and what should be the effect of your religion on you and your community at large?
In this video, Mama Marimba Ani wisely answers this question. May we all ask ourselves the right questions as we strive to decolonize our minds.

from original source: Boukman's Prayer:The God who created the earth, who created the sun that gives us light.The God who holds up the ocean, who makes the thunder roar. Our God who has ears to hear. You who are hidden in the clouds, who watch us fromwhere you are. You see all that the white has made us suffer. The white man's god asks him to commit crimes. But the God within us wants to do good. Our God, who is so good, so just, He orders us to avenge our wrongs. It's He who will direct our arms and bring us the victory. It's He who will assist us. We all should throw away the image of the white man's god who is so pitiless.Listen to the voice for liberty that sings in all our hearts. -- Boukman's Prayer at the Bwa Kayiman Vodun ceremony, the August 14, 1791 call to action that launched the Haitian Revolution, which started on August 22, 1791. --- get rid of the European religion and idea of God....we are god

⁣Animated Proverbs from our Nananom (spoken in Zulu)


⁣Umuzi weziqhwaka uyachitheka - Umakungekho ofuna ukugobelana omunye ekhaya, lowo muzi uyabhidlika.

A house full of bullies will fall apart. If nobody humbles themselves to another in a home, that home is bound to fall.

When most westerners think about gifts, the exchange of material goods, is the image that is most familiar. Little time and attention, however, is given to finding and embracing the gift -- the real reason we are born in this world. As a result most of us cannot make sense of the various events in our life. Drawing on Dagara wisdom, this talk brings to light how everyone has a personal gift that is vital to the well being of the individual and the community.

Sobonfu Somé is a respected author, lecturer, activist and one of the foremost voices in African spirituality. She travels the world on a healing mission, sharing the rich spiritual life and culture of her native land Burkina Faso, West Africa. She is the founder of Wisdom Spring, Inc. an organization dedicated to the preservation, the sharing of indigenous wisdom and organizes fundraisers for wells, schools and health project in Africa. She is the author of The Spirit of Intimacy, Welcoming Spirit Home, Falling Out of Grace and the CDS set Women's Wisdom from the Heart of Africa. Sobonfu's message about the importance of spirit, community, and ritual in our lives rings with an intuitive power and truth that author Alice Walker has said "can help us put together so many things that our modern Western world has broken."

I found this on the page of an enlightened man. He no longer has a youtube page but he'll still get good karma everytime someone watches this vid hopefully.

Do we deserve second chances? But what if second chances are earned and if so we do we need to do in order to get them? Some of us may never get a second chance in life to do what you could or should have done but did not, for whatever set of reasons. When you get, if you get, make the utmost best of your second chances! #secondchances #divine #blessings
