Having left the Westernized and Roman Catholic confusion of the church, I have witnessed profound and soul-stirring experiences that have fueled our mission to free the minds of our people, understanding that not everyone will awaken at the same moment. My hope is that both you and I find our way together.
With that being said, one thing to acknowledge is that death is not easy. Observing countless individuals leaving Sunday morning services, including myself, I see many of us burdened with unanswered questions and deep pain. We have grappled with the loss of loved ones, tortured by thoughts of whether our loved ones made it to a better place, or tormented by unspoken words and lingering "what ifs, should-haves, could-haves, and whys." The conventional narratives of heaven and hell, steeped in colonized and Western ideologies, offer little solace during funerals.
Imagine if the truth were communicated effectively: our departed loved ones have not left us. They have transitioned to the ancestral plane, where they now watch over and guide us as spirit guides. Their mission continues as they thrive in the ancestral plane or their next earthly existence, and it is our hope that they do not reincarnate to pay karmic debts, but rather rest in peace, having learned their lessons.
To connect with and honor them, build an altar in remembrance. Adorn it with white flowers, light white and blue candles on Mondays, and place incense, a glass of water, their favorite foods, and spirits. Observe as they manifest in your life, communing with the living. Pour libations, call upon the names of your ancestors, and converse with them. They will respond in your inner being, offering comfort, reassurance, and vision to help you build your legacy in this world.
I wish this was said so we, as a collective, could reconnect with what we thought was lost. For it has always been found. For they exist in you.- Ase o'
