Sower of Seeds

I have lived in my house approximately 2 years now. When the landscapers came to finish my backyard they planted a row of three small trees perpendicular to the house. I watered them semi-regularly, not as much as they suggested; however, I thought it was sufficient. Winter passed and spring rolled around- they didn’t look any different than the year before. I waited until the end of summer; still no growth. I pretty much chalked it up as a loss and moved on. This year as I was going to cut the grass one day, I looked at the trees and lo and behold, the one in the middle had grown and blossomed. I was surprised and I took note of it and I drew an understanding from it.

Even when you plant the seed you do not know exactly when it will grow. As we are the sower of seeds of knowledge you are not always able to tell what will happen when that knowledge is planted in another person. You never know when it will take bloom or blossom and you never know the time of fruition. However, know that your work is never in vain. There are so many people who I have had the opportunity to share these teachings with and I understand that if they listened and understood what I said, it benefited them in some way whether I realized it or not. So, I continue to plant seeds of knowledge and water the fruit with the words of wisdom; understanding that they will grow in time even if I am not present to witness it.

Peace,

Basketball Camp

Here is a Picture from our 2010 Basic Training Basketball Camp. This was an annual 3 day event that we held to build and interact with the young brothers in our community. We dealt with the fundamentals of the game, teamwork and good sportsmanship. It was a lot of fun and we definitely made an impact on the young men that participated.

ILLUSIONS

“For they say that the mind has a strong drive to correct and recorrect itself over a period of time if it can touch some substantial original historical base; and they advised us that the best way to deal with phenomenon is to shave off the brute's mental history and create a multiplicity of phenomenon or illusions so that each illusion will twirl in its own orbit, something akin to floating balls in a vacuum. This creation of a multiplicity of phenomenon or illusions entails the principles of crossbreeding the nigger and the horse as we stated above, the purpose of which is to create a diversified division of labor. The result of which is severance of the points of original beginning's for each spherical illusion.”

The caption above comes from a document titled “Let’s Make a Slave.” I want to breakdown and relate this to our present times for the sake of understanding the message. There is so much truth in this document and once you get past the pain of digesting it, acceptance and correction are the next steps. You can view the entire writing at the link below:

Like the body, the mind does have the ability to heal itself from damage that may have taken place in the past. Though the scars will be sensitive at times, they will heal if they are not being poked or prodded. As a people who are descendants of generations of mental and physical abuse, we have recovered from many tragic circumstances and risen above the greatest obstacles.  

We are constantly fed a history that is Euro-centric, inaccurate and degrading to us as a people. This keeps us blind to our legacy and strips us of the chance to understand our contribution to civilization. We are pushed towards faith and discouraged from seeking knowledge. As stated above there must be an active effort to keep us blind, one of the greatest tools used to perpetuate this is Religion. Religion contradicts both proven history and science and makes us second guess fact. Also, by accepting religious text as an accurate account; we lose the opportunity to truly learn actual history.

We are fed stories of ghosts, spirits, zombies, saviors, and mysterious wrongdoers to distract us from looking at the true reality of our condition. This inhibits our healing and hinders our growth and development. These illusions “twirl in its own orbit” because they are a continuous cipher. One lie or misconception leads to another and another. These illusions are cyclical in nature and constantly revolve around one anchoring untruth. The only reason people would bear witness to a mystery heaven, angels, demons, a virgin birth, and the raising of the dead is because in religion you are taught to have faith in the unseen- that which can not be proven. Without this keystone, none of these beliefs would hold up or last. Religion (especially Christianity) is and has been the most effective “chain” in this society; locking the free thoughts of men and women.

Once you have a “religious mind set” and you ignore history and science, belief takes the place of knowledge and you can be fed other “spherical illusions.” These illusions revolve and evolve over time and pull you further and further from the root of reality. This year, 2012, 300 hundred years since the date of the writing, “Let’s Make A Slave”, is when we need to put an end to these cycles that stop us from rising and recovering from the mental condition of slavery. The time is NOW.

Power is the Truth

THE GLORY

PEACE,

I've noticed with myself that accomplishing a goal, at times, was simply to satisfy a desire I had- a hunger deep within me. Other times I wanted to succeed to “show them I can do it.” The latter can be dangerous. The subconscious mind can fool us into thinking we are striving to accomplish a goal for ourselves, when truly the motivating factor is the GLORY. Would you perform the same way if no one was watching? Would you be as happy about your achievements without recognition? There is nothing wrong with wanting credit for your work and getting your just due. The problem exists when the thirst for accolades drives you more than personal satisfaction.

When chasing the glory becomes a “high” and you start to become addicted to the rush that comes from the attention, things can get slippery. Then you find yourself caught in a never ending cycle chasing empty goals that bring no true satisfaction. Our children often look up to us, their parents, for approval when they are starting to accomplish things. At a young age they often want us to acknowledge that they’ve done a good job. When we look for approval from others on a constant basis we are quietly admitting that we value the judgment and opinions of others- possibly more than our own. Like that child who wants to impress the parent, you tend to seek approval and justification from those you think are above you in rank or position to some degree. Now if a person can perform a task at a high level, and you acknowledge that their skill set is above your ability, that’s understandable and you must be honest to admit these types of things. But you have to keep this in perspective; don’t praise them and devalue yourself.

Often in today’s society we are subconsciously led to put people we admire on a pedestal, and at times deify them (the Jesus syndrome) and we convince ourselves they are better than we are as people. We equivocate wealth with worth in this country and we often cee people with more monetary wealth as being more valuable than those of us with meager financial means (sometimes without even realizing it). My point: don’t put the others above yourself.

I especially cee this with some of my black, brown and yellow brothers and sisters who seem to be so motivated to disprove what “White America” thinks of them. To want to be perceived in the proper light and understood is natural, don’t get me wrong. However if you are constantly looking UP to a group of people, or a person seeking approval and validation you are selling yourself short. Why is your own opinion and satisfaction not good enough? Often when you do finally “show them you can do it,” or “prove them wrong” the feeling is not as gratifying as you imagined it would be. Be aware of your driving factor and be sincere in your intentions.
