- Curses And Spells In African Religions By:-Yamaya Cruz
Negative energy makes you sick. It causes stress, depression, financial hardships, and relationship problems. Negative energy causes people to degrade in character. This is why Yoruba and African based religions stress growth and development. So you can become strong, operate on a higher vibrational frequency and be able to repel and deflect spells, curses, and negative intentions.
- Warding Off Evil In African Religions By:-Yamaya Cruz
Prayer is very so important. It is our way of communicating with God, so we can attract and deflect energy. It also works as our protective shield to ward off evil, to keep us grounded, to help us reflect, and develop our character. So if there are times when you feel like your head is about to spin. Take some time out, get a glass of water, hold a cross, and say a small prayer.
- Yoruba And The Concept of Demons By:-Yamaya Cruz
There are people who get possessed by mysterious entities. Some people may call them demons; others may say they are evil spirits or negative energies. In Yoruba, these spirits are called the ajogan.
- African Spiritual Awakening By:-Yamaya Cruz
So how do we break out of the cocoon? How do we "unplug ourselves from the matrix?" We do it by facing our deepest darkest fears. We do it by doing the things that make us the most uncomfortable. And this means facing our worse fear, death. This means facing our demons head on, and letting go of the "programs" that hinder our growth. This is the concept of reawakening that is explored in virtually every living culture and holy text.
- Getting Back To Our Nature By:-Yamaya Cruz
People are not allowed to freely express themselves. Instead, they are being reared like a pet. They are rewarded for good behavior and scorned for bad. People can't embody the natural element of fire, because anger and jealousy is bad. People can't show sadness, the element of water, because sadness is a sign of vulnerability. People can't be too loving and giving, the element of earth, because it is a sign of weakness.
- Chango And The Spirit Possession By:-Yamaya Cruz
The spirit possession pushes the body to its most elevated state, where it begins to burn away impurities that have been inflicted on the soul. The drumming works as "music to the ears" for it allows the nervous system to disseminate the sounds as electrical energy. This helps people to release trapped emotions, illnesses, and negative energies that have impeded the soul.
- Maha Shivaratri, The Night Of Shiva By:-Karuna DiLibero
Each year, there is a celebration in honor of Lord Shiva at the Hanuman temple in Taos, New Mexico that I attend as a way to transform my life. This 12-hour ritual cleanses my soul and I feel transformed, fresh and pure, ready to start a new segment in my life. Maha Shivaratri, the "Night of Shiva" is a powerful experience and gives me a taste of the India that I miss living here in the US.
- How Did We Get the Books of the Bible? By:-Jo Ann LeQuang
The Old and New Testaments contain 66 books--but how do we know that they are the "right" books? How did we come to get the books of the Bible? The way in which canon or official texts were identified is crucial to understanding and appreciating the authority of Scripture.
- The Yoruba Religion and Initiations By:-Yamaya Cruz
The initiation process in Yoruba helps us to break the cycles of reincarnation by elevating us to a heavenly consciousness, where we can have direct communication with higher powers.
- Do You Believe In Purgatory? By:-Bob and Penny Lord
In the Catholic Church, the Mystical Body of Christ consists of three Churches: The Church Militant - we the faithful who dwell on earth, The Church Triumphant - the elect who are in the presence of the Beatific Vision in Heaven, and The Church Suffering - those who are no less members of the Body but who are in Purgatory.
- Do You Believe In Hell? By:-Bob and Penny Lord
Hell is mentioned one hundred and forty-six times in the Bible. If we add Gehenna to the configuration, it's another twelve times. So, I think we are standing on good authority, when we speak of the existence of Hell. We hear Jesus Himself saying to Peter:
"And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it." (Matt 16:18)
