LOL @ "WHOLE HEAP AH SEX". Garveys, di I is funny! :)


I suppose, like in all things, moderation is important. That, or di bredren dem must haffi drink nuff nuff roots drink iyah!! LOL!


In regards to the celibacy part, it is mentioned twice by the author:

____________________

"So while Afrikan cultures celebrated sexuality, the West created a climate of sexual repression accompanied by depravity"

And again:

"the Lele of Democratic Republic of Congo require ritual abstinence before a communal hunt and the diviner who performs the hunting rite must be celibate for weeks before the hunt. In this case, the entire society harnesses inner vitality/sexual energy and especially by the person who acts as the intermediary between the spiritual and humans realms. This example can be replicated all over the continent."

____________________

I completely agree with the first quote. Afrikan sexuality has been misoverstood, misinterpreted, twisted, perverted, exploited, abused, and repressed by the western world. Babylon, with all their religious sexual repression has produced the most pornographic and perverted sexual society. It is either "feast or famine". It is viewed and practiced solely on the lower vibrations and void of spiritual energy. Just as they separate Man from "God", science from religion, so they do with sexuality and spirituality. In fact, homosexuality is celebrated as a norm, worse yet, it is promoted as "Agape Love" according to Plato's Symposium.

FIYAH!

As far as Afrikans practicing celibacy before a hunt, I overstand this from an energy point of view, as opposed to being a matter of sexual repression. In other words, a hunt will involve taking a life to sustain another. Perhaps the sacrifice of sex is reflective of the sacrifice of life? Or, it could simply be a matter of harnessing the vital energy used for intense physical energy required for huntinh, much like sports figures typically abstain from sex before a big game. Im not sure, but this is my interpretation of it.


LOVE IS LOVELY

The Turin Papyrus (Egyptian version of the Kama Sutra?)



On this side of the papyrus there are 12 erotic scenes which are often accompanied by short inscriptions.

“… come behind me with your love, Oh! Sun, you have found out my heart, it is agreeable work…”

My heart desires to go down to bathe myself before you,

That I may show you my beauty in a tunic of the finest royal linen...

I'll go down to the water with you, and come out to you carrying a red fish, which is just right in my fingers.

I'll set it before you, while looking upon your beauty.

O my hero, my brother [a term of endearment],

Come, look upon me!

"Although Egyptologists disagree, sometimes vehemently, whether there is erotic encodement in Egyptian art, there can be no doubt that sexual themes are indeed represented in formal tombs and temples. Sexuality could not be ignored because of its importance in Egyptian myths and beliefs about the afterlife. Creation itself could be described in sexual terms (the creator, being alone, masturbates to generate other gods), and deities had sexual relations with each other."

In The Song of Solomon (which is ancient Kemetic erotica), Akhenaton and Nefertiti are engaging in some beautiful erotica:

As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.- Song of Solomon 2:3


Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies. - Song of Solomon 4:5

Akhenaton knew that the breasts were one of a woman's 12 moon centers or errogenous zones!

Awake, O north wind: and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits. - Song of Solomon 4:16

I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey: I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved. -Song of Solomon 5:1


I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.- Song of Solomon 6:11


Let us get up early to the vineyards; let us see if the vine flourish, whether the tender grape appear, and the pomegranates bud forth; there will I give thee my loves.- Song of Solomon 7:12

I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate. - Song of Solomon 8:2

Women operate on a higher vibration, a higher wavelength with the rest of the Universe, in retrospect, actually, they are probably (actually, most certainly!!) a superior entity. The Man has 7 orifices into the body, while you have 9- this is significant as a metaphysical concept. You are in greater harmony with the wavelength (Nine Ether) that operates throughout the Universe. You know, when you walk down the street and see a stranger, and sometimes you are able to communicate with that stranger- a near conversation at times- by a simple gesture or look of the eye. That wavelength. So, to the girls, the next time you feel someone's pain and it causes you pain to the point of tears, you do not need to feel ashamed. It is not a sign of weakness. Maybe, it is instead a sign of strength. Asking questions like this is what it means to have a "Scientific" mind- which is the most Open of minds that there is.

Lets look at the word, "Woman." Often and here is why religion (not Spirituality) in my mind, needs to be condemned. This word does NOT denote that you are "of" Man, or a result of the Man coming first, as some religions would have you be-lie-eve. The word "Woman" denotes a Man with a Womb. A Womb-man. Is this important? Well, if you think about it, the Woman is like a vessel of Time travel. Through her we are able to manifest and procure a place in the future by the succession and re-birth of ourselves into the next generation.

Through women we are able to perpetuate the advancement of our civilization(s), AND our genus, by the successive accumulation of Knowledge, and through that knowledge continues our Growth and our Mastery over our Individual selves. Women have the power to choose and reject what is going to be manifest in the future. As homo sapiens, we need to start recognizing that the manifestation of our own destiny is the metaphysical principle behind the physical principle of Selective Breeding. Women are the out-drawers of our (collective) potential. It is not that women are necessarily weaker than men, they are weaker physically, and perhaps there is a reason for that. Maybe that is the case because they do not need to have that type of strength; our power is drawn out by them and placed into the hands of Men to implement. It seems to be that there is significance in our need for one another, in other words, that dependence MEANS something more than what is physically perceptible. Something that we have yet to really figure out or maybe something that we have forgotten.......

Who knows?

A Woman's choice of a mate is not a blind devotion to an otherwise senseless law which demands that we pass on our seed. It is a choice which has REAL UNIVERSAL, SPIRITUAL, and METAPHYSICAL implications. It is part of a Spiritual Science. Physical science is meaningless and stupid to pursue without the other as your starting purpose- you will never gain the Right Knowledge of Why ANYTHING "IS" without it. This is why Kemit was a highpoint of human civilization, as you will slowly see, and civilizations outside of it thought that this planet was flat and Man was capable of falling off of it until as late as 1492! This is because the wrong questions were being asked, and the wrong questions were being asked because there was an err in their standpoint toward Learning.

Now, I have not answered the question of what a woman is or what it means to be one, because I do not know, but at least now we can begin considering these things for ourselves from the standpoint of an inherited Divine responsibility. It is about far more than choosing a mate with the resources to enable us to better potentially care for and maintain our children. Women (and Men) must understand how important we are in relation to the status of our sex. Perhaps the Lock of a Woman is not to yield to the Key of just any Man-- perhaps not every Key will fit....

"Man, Know Thyself." Hotep (peace).
