Messages from the Ancestral Village: Dr. Seshat
www.Sakhu.com
After years of communing with spirits who dwell within the god realms, I have found my way to a place I like to call the Ancestral Village. In this place, the ancestors fervently share our ancient technologies. I'd like to give you all a taste of this precious wisdom, and invite you to join us in The Village!
The ancestors love us and they want us to be restored to wholeness.
They see how the betrayal of our traditions caused us to fall prey to others who wished to enslave us.
These days, the theme of slavery is in the forefront: 12 Years a Slave, Django. How did those of us whose spiritual advancement was irrefutable fall prey to such crude means of domination?
The ancestors have been sharing with me exactly how we betrayed our sacred knowledge and became trapped in a materialist paradigm. This was not our true nature.
For 2014, "Black history month" should be devoted to the recognition of the tribes whose spiritual technologies made it impossible for them to be enslaved. They don't teach us THAT in school- how the Ibo and the Asante (Ashanti) people, to name a few, used the science of ritual to make them impervious to capture. The ancestors have been sharing with me the essence of these methods so that we can achieve the ultimate liberation: A liberation of consciousness.

Whether already enjoying a plant and fruit based lifestyle or just beginning one, readers will find this book relevant, assessable, and very helpful.

Khamitic New Year Retreat 2014
WEP RENPET RETREAT CELEBRATION
We are beginning our preparations for this year's celebration of Wep RenPet, the Opening of the Kemetic Year.
As we did this past August, we will celebrate Wep RenPet at The Country Place Retreat & Conference Center in White Haven, PA during a three-day retreat weekend (August 1 - 3, 2014).
 | Alkhemy-Magic and The Science of Spiritual Warfare |
We have succeeded at fending off unnecessary cost increases (!) and the total per adult person cost for the entire weekend remains at $425. This includes lodging, meals (vegan/vegetarian), and all activities. Transportation to and fro is not included. Children under 14 are priced differently; teens 14 and up are priced as adults.
As with last year, for each person that you refer, you will have $25 deducted from your retreat fee as soon as they register and place their deposit. The only caveat to this is that the person must be someone who is brand new (meaning, has never attended a retreat with the Temple of Anu previously).

About Meatout
Meatout is an international observance helping individuals evolve to a wholesome, compassionate diet of fruits, vegetables, whole grains. The purpose is to expose the public to the joys and benefits of a plant-based diet, while promoting the availability and selection alternatives to meat and dairy in mainstream grocery stores, restaurants, and catering operations.
Meatout has grown explosively since its inception in 1985 to become the world's largest annual grassroots diet education campaign. Thousands of caring people in all 50 U.S. states and a host of other countries welcome Spring with colorful educational events. These range from simple information tables, exhibits, and cooking demonstrations to elaborate receptions and festivals. Visitors are asked to "kick the meat habit on March 20 (first day of spring) and explore a wholesome, nonviolent diet of fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
Several mainstream health advocacy organizations, including the American Cancer Society, the National Cancer Institute, Johns Hopkins University, and the American Heart Association, have since launched their own campaigns to promote consumption of plant-based foods.
 | Celebrating Meatout Day |
Meatout reflects national trends:
Mainstream health advocacy organizations and the official government publication "Dietary Guidelines for Americans" tout plant-based foods.
Over 30 million Americans have explored a meat-free diet. One in five teens thinks vegetarianism is "cool." National beef and veal consumption have dropped by 25 and 70%, respectively. Major manufacturers and retailers are marketing meat-free and dairy-free meals. Several national fast food chains are offering veggie burgers and several major baseball parks are selling veggie dogs.

The Truth About Oil Pulling
Perhaps you have heard of it: the Ayurvedic technique of swishing oil in your mouth for 10-20 minutes daily that claims to deliver a litany of health benefits. The web is chock-full of stories claiming amazing results from this seemingly innocuous procedure. It seems implausible that swishing oil in the mouth could benefit one's joint, heart, and immune health.
Additional info posted by Blender Girl on Facebook
Are you OIL PULLING? This ancient Ayurvedic form of dental care and detoxification is very effective. Place 1 tablespoon cold pressed sesame oil (or coconut oil) in the morning on an empty stomach and swish it around in your mouth, remembering to pull it through the teeth, not just swishing side to side. This draws the toxins from the blood through the mucous membranes in the mouth. For the best results, try to swish for about 15 - 20 minutes. This seems like a LONG TIME when you first start. Start slowly and build up to 20 minutes. I distract myself by setting the timer and checking my emails. The time goes so quickly. When the oil has become saturated with the toxins it has pulled out, it will become somewhat whitish and a thinner, milky consistency. Spit the oil out (never swallow the oil because it is toxic at this point) and rinse your mouth out with warm salt water. I dissolve Celtic sea salt or Himalayan crystal salt in water.
Then brush your teeth with baking soda or a natural toothpaste. I keep a separate toothbrush for oil pulling because it can build up with toxins and bacteria. Always run the brush under hot water for a few minutes and then allow to air dry. You can oil pull every single day, and some people swish three times a day. I do it first thing in the morning. Just always do it on an empty stomach. On a full stomach, the toxins in your mouth may give you nausea. Oil pulling can really help with: oral health (tooth decay, loose teeth, bleeding gums, bad breath, whitening of your teeth), eczema, acne and other skin conditions, respiratory disorders like bronchitis and sinus congestion, headaches and migraines, insomnia, thrombosis, inflammation, arthritis, increasing your metabolism, general detoxification, and overall health. I found that my teeth were whiter and my overall dental health was better. What has your experience been?

Cast of Broadway's A Raisin in the Sun

Anika Noni Rose, Sophie Okonedo, and LaTonya Richardson Jackson talk about bringing this American classic back to Broadway.
Denzel Washington and Kenny Leon read 100 plays before selecting A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry's seminal American drama, for their latest collaboration. Little did they realize the timeliness of this classic, which, unlike other plays of its caliber, isn't frequently revived on Broadway (the last production was a decade ago). In this video, Washington, Leon, and actors LaTonya Richardson Jackson, Anika Noni Rose, and Sophie Okonedo share their thoughts on the importance - and the relevance - of this storied work.

THE WAR ON THE POOR AND WORKING FAMILIES !!!
Robert Reich connects the dots to show how a range of positions, on issues ranging from the minimum wage to unemployment insurance to food stamps, work together to keep poor and working families in desperate situations -- and calls on all of us to do something about it. We can get started by calling our senators via the Senate Switchboard at (202) 224-3121, and urging them to extend emergency unemployment insurance.
