    Spirital Sacrifice : Understanding sacrifice as a natural part of the equation.

    Spiritual Sacrifice: Understanding and Accepting Spiritual Sacrifice as a Natural part of the Equation. Acts of spiritual sacrifice are a complex and intimate part of all world religions and cultures. At its most basic level, sacrifice is a basic element of human life and existence. Sacrifice is what motivates us to save for a rainy day or prepare for the winter when the production of many resources is limited by the natural and cyclical aspects of nature an existence on this earthen plane level. It is the motivating force and ideal behind budgeting and keeping and maintaining schedules so they we make the best use of our time and resources for an ultimate favorable outcome. We are taught this again, moment by moment by the cycles of the ever changing weather and seasons for we know and understand that everything is moving, changing and relative within our realm of existence and this can not be negated, like Karmic Law cannot be negated. It is a Divine Cosmic Universal Law and the application and understanding of The Law of Mirrors. The hopeful and powerfully magical aspect of this understanding is that this is the same principle and science behind the power of positive thinking, prayer and ritual spell work. It is within our understanding of these forces that we are able to get a prayer through. To make our dreams and visions manifest and it is the knowing of these boundaries that keep it all solid and from imploding in upon itself in the bad weathering times and cycles. So there has to be an appropriate balance of the wants, needs and particulars of the details of any particular event or manifestation to be ‘worked’ and Karmic implications and sacrifices much be measured and taken into account. Sacrifice manifest not just in what we offer or Offerings before the altar or secret place of the deities and forces we tap into in times of distress to carry our request, prayers and concerns before the creative forces of the Creator but, sacrifice is also the act of purification or ourselves and implements. It is also the acts we perform and do in earnest to purify, cleanse, enliven, project, direct and produce our intended and desired result and manifestation, understanding the range of balance within all things. So we pay sacrifice in deed, tithes, offering, action, intention and implication, Karma and all in balance with the natural laws of season and the Divine Creator, the ultimate source of all that is good and righteous. So I implore you to soul search and ask yourself the questions of when, what, who and where you are committed to the sacrifice necessary to elicit that which you need, desire and request before the Divine Powers of this Universe understanding that all is indeed possible within the appropriate ratios of balance, offering, action, intention AND sacrifice. Know there is no way around having to pay the proverbial fee that life, nature, the Universe and the Deities will require of us in all things. If what we ask is not even for our good or more to fulfill our selfish desires, than that which is of Divine Order, the Creator has still given us access to that within the realms of our own personal will. This is why even bad people seem to get what they want when good people may suffer or pay what we perceive to be a higher price in life experience. It is the rule behind, “All things in moderation”. But if you understand my words, message and meaning now, you understand that there is always a price, for the rich man or the bad man or the person whose material illusions of success we covet and are envious of, they have and do pay a toll or sacrifice. It is explicit in the saying, “Walk a mile in another person’s moccasins.” It is implied in the Divine Mysteries and Parables of the Talents of Matthew Chapter 25 and the proper and appropriate symbolic spiritual preparation in the Parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew Chapter 25 for the time, day, hour and moment of the ‘Weighing of the Hearts’ and the ‘Balancing of the Ratios and Variables’ is within itself a Divine Mystery. That transaction may not always be apparent or visibly on the surface and obscured by the veils but the Divine Presence, Principles, Understanding and Mystery, it is intrinsic and inherent if not necessary and built in Divinely and in order to the life process, magical process and the natural process of obtaining within this realm. To make this simple I will provide two examples: #1 The rich man may lack education and skill and the commitment to sacrifice in blood, sweat, tears and labor but is abundant in money and may ‘buy’ what it is he wants to manifest. Fair? Not necessarily but a natural fact of life and existence. #2 The poor man may totally lack, money, resources and political contacts so by this is forces naturally by circumstance to have to sacrifice in labor, study to maybe better prepare for and produce the same thing scenario man #1 is manifesting. Fair is dependant on your position within either scenario and maybe not but again, a natural part of life and the cycle for man, animal and much of creation and our natural battle and fight for existence and survival. It is the ultimately up to the Divine Creators and the individual Soul itself to sort out the ratios and the heart is weighed against our deeds, actions, options, choices, wants, needs, skills, abilities, creativity, honesty, purity of thought and intention, understanding, education, wisdom, foreknowledge and capabilities – our SACRIFICE. So we ask ourselves are we really willing to change and what are we really willing to change of ourselves or our situation? Do we change a key player in any given scenario or do we change our position within any particular scenario? Do we gather resources plan or strategize if qualified to do so or do we look outside ourselves and seek aid and assistance from a more qualified source or expert in that area we are seeking to manifest within? And what is the cost? Some are qualified and possess the talent, skills and or the resources for Ivy League schools and education and therefore their path is determined by their unique set of circumstances and their sacrifice is appropriated in accordance to all the variables within their unique and personalized equation. Others of us may not possess the resources, talents or skills or maybe not in the same proportions and degrees to our circumstance and opt for city or community college, on the job training and skilled trade schools and may have to work harder than the more resourced individual but ultimately have access to the same level of successes and experience, particularly here in the United States. Or another may lack resources but possess skill and talent and is gifted a scholarship or some form of assistance, reference or referral based on this unique set of circumstances also demanding the appropriate and necessary sacrifice within balance to all the relative variables of this particular scenario. At least that is the philosophy we say would strive to live up to and live by. I mention all these scenarios to demonstrate the deeper meaning and message I am attempting to convey within this document. Sacrifice is a part of life and the natural cycle of things and something we commit to every single moment of everyday in ratio to our faith, belief, circumstances, situation, skills, need, necessities and resources. What separates the person who succeeds in ‘ANY’ endeavor and the one who does not is the amount of and willingness to make the necessary and appropriate sacrifice and effort, even when confronted with set-backs and road-blocks which are a natural part of everyone’s life process and experience within this realm, plan and dimension. We as humans get stuck within our own situation and are limited within our range of vision so we only see within the moment, our own complex, complicated situation and pity. But the superior person, spiritually only sees the opportunities and becomes compelled to be more creative and locate the solutions and make the appropriate sacrifices to effect real, tangible and lasting changes to their environment and circumstance. The movie creator knows and understands that even if you have a brilliant and pliable idea, you must sacrifice a million dollars in money and labor in order to invest in the supposed future success of the project, upon completion of the production and work and that is a SACRIFICE. We work forty hours a week in trust and contract, sleeping and schedule our personal lives and time for someone else’s vision, understanding that our SACRIFICE will be rewarded with a pay check at the end of the week. So there is a lot of fear, confusion, mysticism and mystery around the word sacrifice, particularly when people outside of magical paths, traditions and religions like Hoodoo and other Pan-African Diaspora based religious traditions hear the word. Even within the Christian community some people are alarmed when they hear of people ‘speaking in tongues’ under the utterance and influence of the Holy Ghost or ‘faith healing’ ‘casting out devils’ or exorcisms, and ‘snake handling’. All perceived as spooky and somewhat eerie and mysterious to the over-all general population, often just doing everything they think or understand that they can, to get by from day to day, often SACRIFICING diet, health, family life and spirituality. The interesting and most powerful thing of all is that we have Divine Will and choice to chose how, when, where and even why we make sacrifice, even when we are confused and have lost sight of the reasoning and understanding in any given moment. Ultimately we all pay in SACRIFICE, at the beginning, somewhere in the middle or in the end. It is inescapable and a natural force known to all world cultures by many names, Karma being just one interpretation of sacrifice. We all know a ‘nursery rhyme’ of the ones who did not, would not prepare for the winter and hard times that always did and will come. Examine your sacrifice in any endeavor and you will find the key to moving through any life blocks: in business, relationships, finances, personal responsibility and preparedness, love, education, life experiences, personal health and wealth and spirituality and religion. So ask and search yourself, understanding the depth and 360 degreed implications of paying our dues, tithes, sacrifice and offerings. When we do not pay the prescribed cost in life, we ultimately within this Divine Mystery hurt, cheat or rob OURSELVES. When we do not commit to, what ever it is, pay the appropriate and necessary attention to and make the required sacrifices for (even in child rearing) we bring the proverbial cost back to the source: OURSELVES. Malachi 3:8 (King James Version of the Bible) 8 Will A Man Rob God? Yet Ye Have Robbed Me. But Ye Say, Wherein Have We Robbed Thee? (You have robbed me) In Tithes And Offerings. Matthew 25:41-46 (King James Version) 41Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. When we don’t make the appropriate sacrifices in health and diet, in body and community, we don’t just defile and show dishonor to our bodies and ourselves but to the ‘least of Gods children, even ourselves and the Divine Creator. And we now know and understand, even as it is taught and implied in the teaching of Namasté, that ‘The Divine in me greets the Divine in you, in Divine Namasté.” In Rastafarian it is said, I and I are Roots. Meaning I (or me), We, Us and They; You, God and Goddess are ultimately one and the same. There is no personal pronoun usage in Rastafarianism and many other world religious dialects and language usages, linking the individual to the whole of the Divine Process. It is the sacred and Divine Mystery lost within the teachings of The Christ.

    Hope For PEACE In The World In The Story Of Leymah Gbowee of Liberia

    Our Strength Comes From Our Bitter Past Say Liberian WomenBy Darren TaylorWashington09 July 2007Taylor report (MP3 1.89 MB)Listen to Taylor report (MP3 1.89 MB)Former Liberian President Charles Taylor is on trial for war crimes at The Hague. Liberian women overcame his resistance to forge peace in their nation.In late 2005, Liberia’s Ellen Johnson Sirleaf became Africa’s first elected female head of state. A 14-year civil war had devastated Liberia, and the country remains in urgent need of rebuilding. President Sirleaf promised that women would play important roles in Liberia’s reconstruction. She has since chosen women to head several key ministries in her government. But have developments such as these improved the lives of the average woman in Liberia? In the first part of a series on this issue, VOA’s Darren Taylor reflects on the roles that women played in securing peace in the country, and the strength that it’s given them as they face the future.“We can’t forget our past, because its taste is still bitter in our mouths,” says Leymah Gbowee, one of Liberia’s most prominent human rights activists, who remains at the forefront of efforts to ensure that women occupy increasingly prominent positions in her society.Gbowee is the executive director of the Women’s Peace and Security Network for Africa, based in Accra, Ghana, and was a commissioner-designate for Liberia’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission. She was instrumental in securing peace in the country after decades of instability and brutal conflict.In the late 1990’s and early years of the present decade, Gbowee was one of the leaders of an unprecedented groundswell of female activism in West Africa, which many in the international community have credited with ending the war that killed an estimated 200,000 people.Her struggles, and those of other women, set the tone for what many see as Liberia’s present gradual evolution from failed state to beacon of hope in Africa.In late 2005, President Sirleaf’s ascension to power inspired an entire continent, with the president pledging to entrench peace and good governance.As part of this promise, Mrs. Sirleaf has appointed women to head Liberia’s ministries of commerce, justice, finance, youth and sports and gender and development. As far as the country’s economy is concerned, there are moves to secure female participation in the lucrative industries of timber, gold and diamonds, and construction of infrastructure.“Women’s advocacy for peace and security really started in Liberia in 1991, and it’s because of this history that Liberian women are now so aggressive in trying to get bigger roles in the overall development of their country,” Gbowee explains.In 1997, after Charles Taylor became president of Liberia, he failed to institute democracy - thereby sparking another round of a war that had essentially been simmering since the early 1980’s. The “sufferings” of the late 1990’s, says Gbowee, “hardened” her and other Liberian women.“That’s when the worst atrocities were committed against women and children. Rape was a toy of war, not a tool anymore. Young boys would bet (one another) how many women (they could rape). It wasn’t about beauty; it defied beauty. It went beyond everything, like age: the older you were, the better you were to be raped. (In) the African society, women stop engaging in sexual activity at a certain age. So (the young fighters) said: ‘Okay, these (old women) are as good as new (and prime targets for rape).’”Out of this pain and trauma, Gbowee insists, strength has emerged and Liberian women are now “no longer willing to take a back seat” in Liberia’s reconstruction.“You can’t hurt the women of Liberia any more than they have already been hurt. The worst things in the world have been done to them, and this is what makes them so strong now. They have no more fear, and they are going to take what is rightfully theirs.”Dealing with someone like Taylor, who is presently on trial in The Hague for war crimes relating to his alleged role in fomenting atrocities in Sierra Leone, has further emboldened women like Gbowee.“I think if one has been able to talk with a man such as Charles Taylor – and deal on a day to day basis with such a stubborn leader – then there are not many leaders in the world who you are not able to deal with!” she laughs.In the late 1990’s, a band of Liberian women, including Gbowee, approached Taylor and asked him to make peace with the rebels who were bent on his destruction. Liberia’s besieged leader responded by issuing the women an ultimatum he was sure they would be unable to fulfill.Gbowee recalls: “Mr. Taylor told us, ‘Find the rebels and speak with them first. If you don’t come back with an agreement from them that they also want peace, then I’ll take it as a sign that you women are on the side of the rebels.’”But the women surprised everyone – including themselves.“Without any money, without any knowledge of where the rebels were located, we started our journey. Fortunately for us, we found them in Sierra Leone, where the Sierra Leonean women who were working for peace called us and said, ‘We understand that some of your rebel leaders frequent so-and-so hotel’. And we sent three women with their (air) tickets and $200 into Sierra Leone, and we got an agreement from the rebels and then Mr. Taylor had no choice but to listen to us,” says Gbowee.By the time peace talks were held in Accra, she adds, the women had gained the respect of all belligerents – because the opposing forces recognized that the women didn’t have a political agenda.“In 2003, a group of civil society – ordinary women such as myself, a mother of four children – and internally displaced women decided that we were going to even take it further; we are going to confront the powers of terror and madness in our country. We started the famous Women of Liberia Mass Action Peace Campaign. This campaign took us from every part of Liberia; we went to Accra, we went to Sierra Leone; we went to rebel bases and we met with them. And at the end of the day, this campaign paid off. We saw peace in 2003.”Gbowee remembers that by the time she and the other female peace activists returned to Monrovia, after the signing of the peace agreement, “people knew that we meant business, that we were not aligned with either Taylor or with the rebels. We gave no-nonsense messages to the groups. We were not interested in who took over the political space in Liberia. All we wanted was peace and security.”She says Liberian women “never dreamed” that their country would one day be led by a female president, and says there are still men in Liberia who are convinced that the women orchestrated Mrs. Sirleaf’s ascension to power.In reality, Gbowee says, “this gender thing was the furthest from our minds! We didn’t care at that stage who became president, as long as there was no more fighting.”She says most Liberian men expected their female counterparts to “fade into the background” after the success of their peace efforts.“They were wrong,” she whispers.“Usually what is expected of women after you sign the agreement – we go back, we dance, we beat the drums, we kill some chickens, and we have a big celebration and that’s it. But we went back around the (negotiating) table and said: ‘Is this what we want; have we really attained what we thought we’d started to do?’ And the answer was a resounding ‘No; we need to do something more; what do we need to do?’”Gbowee says the women of Liberia weren’t satisfied with merely gaining peace for their country. They wanted the agreement to lead to “meaningful and positive change” in Liberians’ lives.“We women were confused about the peace agreement – even those of us with university degrees couldn’t really understand it.”So they held a five-day meeting of all the women’s groups in Liberia to “demystify” the agreement. The terms and conditions were simplified, in a way that allowed the people of the country to hold their leaders accountable.“We set benchmarks. And the way we set the benchmarks was that it was so simple that even the women in the village knew at what point in time something was supposed to be happening according to the peace agreement,” Gbowee explains.In this way, she says, the people of Liberia were informed ahead of time of the day in December 2003 when the authorities were supposed to begin disarming the rebels throughout the country. Yet the disarmament process initially “failed miserably” when the rebels refused to surrender their weapons, says Gbowee.“The first round of disarmament failed largely because we women were excluded from the process. By that stage the men had told the women to get back home, to stop agitating. We were protesting; we were doing everything. And the men loved us in those days when we were making our bodies the barrier for peace. But by the time peace came, people were saying to us: ‘Go back home and sit.’ Even when we were saying: ‘We have a stake in this disarmament process,’ they said: ‘No, you can’t do anything; it’s a militarized process.’”Juanita Jarrett, another stalwart of the country’s women’s movement and a founding member of the Association of Female Lawyers of Liberia, says the disarmament process in her country was “very slow, because the UN failed to involve the women. As long as the women were not there, things were very slow and atrocities continued to be committed.”After the initial failure of the disarmament initiative, the female activists established contact with Liberia’s military leaders and asked the United Nations to pressure the generals to agree to disarm the rebels. But UN officials refused to allow the women into their meeting with the generals…leading to an unexpected occurrence, one which would set the tone for the future participation of women in Liberia’s democratic transition.“By the time we got to the UN office, they said: ‘You can’t go in; we’ll only take the generals.’ The generals turned around and said: ‘If they can’t come, then we’re not coming in.’ We spent three hours in that meeting. Every time they said something, we would write on a piece of note and pass it to the generals, saying: ‘This is what we want.’ We formed our power base, especially with them (the generals).”Gbowee says this meeting was a “key turning point in the history of women” in Liberia.“That the most male of men, and men who were really anti-women, the generals, had gained such respect for women was something unexpected.”Jarrett credits the women for eventually “turning the tide.”“Because the women, they were the mothers of the fighters. They knew the nooks and crannies where these fighters were hiding their guns. Once the women were allowed to get involved in the disarmament efforts, the conflict came to a halt.”Gbowee says it was in the immediate aftermath of the disarmament process that women took the lead in Liberia’s peace building efforts, when a collective cry arose from the international mediators.“They said: ‘Let the Liberian women take over; they know exactly what they are doing.’ We went into the camps; we engaged the fighters, and it (the fighting) calmed down. Today, people will tell you that in Liberia – and I don’t mean to sound conceited – Liberia has one of the best practical experiences of women engaging in a disarmament process in the world.”Carla Koppell, of the Initiative for Inclusive Security in Washington D.C., agrees. She visited Liberia last year and was seated at a function alongside Vice-President Joseph Boakai. Koppell says she asked him for his views on the role that women played in getting peace in Liberia.“He said: ‘Well, at a minimum I can tell you peace would not have come with the speed that it came, without the women; they were the ones that gave the negotiations impetus and a motor.’ He stopped necessarily short of saying that it wouldn’t have come at all (without the women). But he was absolutely open in giving a great deal of credit to the women’s movement in Liberia for bringing about peace.”Later, when the peace talks began to stall, Koppell recalls how the women, led by Gbowee and others, locked all the negotiators in the hall and refused to free them until they’d begun to talk through their problems.Even after the rebels were disarmed and the peace agreement was signed, the women refused to rest on their laurels. Gbowee and her fellow leaders perceived that women were not interested in voting.“All along, the government structures had never benefited women. So they were asking: ‘Why should we vote? How will it help us? At the end of the day, the men will take power and we will just be pushed aside.’”Gbowee and the female activists again took to the streets of Monrovia to encourage their fellow women to vote.“So we went out there – 200 women in the streets, for five days. We registered 7, 485 women in five days. When it came time to vote, we had to be out there. One of my favorite campaign messages was: ‘Where is the women’s place? The women’s place is on the hill!’ In Liberia, where the parliament is and where the executive is, it’s called Capitol Hill (just like in the United States). So the women’s place is not in the kitchen anymore; it’s on the Hill. That’s what I was saying, and that’s what I continue to say.”Jarrett says some women were adamant that they could not afford to vote.“Some of them said, ‘We can’t vote; who will look after our market stalls?’ Then I told them: ‘If there is war again, you will have no markets, so go and vote.’”It’s this never-say-die attitude, this willingness to sacrifice, that has carried the women of Liberia through “thick and thin,” says Jarrett.After Gbowee and Jarrett had completed their voter education campaign, they were “amazed” by the results they achieved, with Mrs. Sirleaf ultimately defeating the “most male” of candidates, Liberian soccer star George Weah.“After it all, we had registered 51 women for every male voter. It’s no wonder Ellen won! Definitely, the results reflected a gender dimension. And the song we sang during the elections was called, ‘Women, This is our Time.’ So women went out there with this attitude that if we don’t act and vote now, we’ll never have a chance at power in the next 100 plus years. So we acted,” says Gbowee.“And our victory was not a victory for the women of Liberia, but for all the people of the country and for all the people of Africa, in fact.”Jarrett says all the struggles of the past have merely served to strengthen Liberian women and have ensured that they “no longer suffer from a crisis of confidence” and feelings of “inadequacy.”And Gbowee adds, “Our place is now as much in the corridors of political and economic power as it is in our homes and on our farms.”$0Photobucket$0

"There are no words to describe more than awesome. I sought the Divine Prince for clarity. What I received was enlightenment. He did not hesitate to describe my situation in one sentence but went on to elaborate in terms that brought power to the vision that I have been carrying for twenty seven years. No one has ever been this pin point with a reading for me and I had not revealed my complete vision to anyone. This Divine Person is more than his description. He is anointed to be a prophet of this 21st century. May Spirit continue to use Him." Thank you again, Dr. D. H. El

“I am really enjoying the positive energy that prince is extending to me as he is working on my long standing issue revolving my relationship. He clearly picked on my spirit-and I can tell based on the words that he has so far conveyed to me. In addition, he is tuning in with the exact and concrete information. I have not sent him one photo, but one would guess I did. I am sure that Prince will effectively resolve my problem (spiritual work to tear my relationship apart) and I am saying this because my boyfriend is initiating efforts to communicate more freely. In a previous posting, I made note to improvement. This time he is making effort to invite me over. If you feel that your relationship is dissolving, fighting, or just questionable strange problems happen-Prince is definitely the man to call on for assistance. If anyone is aware of spiritual work, and what negative people do to separate relationships-you will understand that many times, and in most cases you never talk to the person again-unless it is negative talk. And forget about getting back together-again it is non-existent. So with that being the case, you need someone who will get the job done! Please don’t cry about the cost of a reading or work, one cannot put a price on one's god given ability. Check for my postings as I will keep someone who is suffering because of the same situation-updated. So please seek assistance if you feel your case is due to negative spiritual mess. I have seen so many cases where both men and women are destroyed because of negativity please don’t be one of them.” Signed, Ms. T
