On every 23, August, when I have to blow out old candles and light new ones, I have never ceased to wonder at how expansive the carpet of existence continues to widen for experiencing on earth and, simultaneously, in the regions of existence beyond the sensibilities or tangibility of our earthly senses.
I was preparing to write this column about 15 minutes before the midnight of my 74th birthday when one of my acquaintances informed me of a video in the THE FLAGSHIP, chat group of the THE GUARDIAN staff. The author, Dr. Ken, said that men who did not have sexual relationships 21 times monthly risked congestion in their prostate glands and could suffer from cancer.
I made an immediate response at about 12:03 a.m. to warn against wholesale acceptance of this notion. My response was informed by experiencing expanded by age.
When I was 18 and a devotee of James Brown and Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, I thought that was the pinnacle of human experience. I was mentally and inwardly stimulated whenever I read of 16-year-olds or 18-year-olds in Europe and the United States bidding their parents bye and leaving home, getting married, and starting their own families.
By 25, I was partly sanguine and partly melancholic, asking such questions of existence as: WHO AM I? WHAT IS LIFE? WHAT IS DREAM? IF MY FATHER MARRIED SOMEONE ELSE, WOULD I HAVE BEEN BORN? IF I WAS, HOW WOULD I HAVE LOOKED LIKE? WHERE ELSE WOULD I HAVE BEEN BORN? They stirred up in my soul because, the year before, at 24, I had my first OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE (OBE). More OBEs followed in the years after. In the first OBE, I came out of my body, which I saw fast asleep in bed in the single room apartment assigned to me by my father in his first house in Lagos. I cannot give the details of that first OBE here. That first OBE was devastating and challenging. A dark, male figure tried to overpower me. Intuitively, I sensed I should prevent him from doing so. If he did, I would be dead. I was to learn later, in the course of my struggles inwardly to understand why events are as they are, that no event takes place on earth without its model having been designed and accomplished in regions of existence that are above the earthly sphere. Thus, our dreams may warn us of coming events if we are not careless about them. They won’t be those dreams that are conjured by the overburdened and tired frontal brain, the cerebrum, or the intellect. They would be those ones in which natural colours vividly appear. They are passed by the spirit through its soul bodies to the back brain or the cerebellum, the spiritual brain, which “uploads” them on the RADIATIONS OF THE BLOOD from the SOLAR PLEXUS, from where they gain connection with the frontal brain.
Many of us do not remember our dreams or do faintly or remember them but do nothing about them. If we do not remember them or remember them faintly, it means the Spirit, that is the real us, cannot effectively communicate with the body, its earthly cloak and vessels, as a motorist may lose control of a motor vehicle. We lose control when the blood radiation cannot support the transmission, just as we complain about “network” problems when the person at the other end of a telephone conversation cannot hear us or vice versa. Effective blood radiation for high-fidelity communications between the spirit or the soul and the physical body depends on optimal blood composition and, in part, on the equilibrium of vibrations of the Spirit and blood. When one part goes down, a loosening, separation, or falling apart, which we call “death,” may occur. Sometimes, the body’s blood radiation may be overwhelmed by vibrations of the Spirit. This has been noted to be the cause of SPONTANEOUS HUMAN COMBUSTION, in which the body burns to ash without a valid scientific explanation (please see the internet for spontaneous human combustion). These were some of the occurrences which engaged my choleric years. Spontaneous human combustion occurred in the United Kingdom in 1979 when I was 29 and on holiday there. The newspapers splashed the news. No scientist had a reasonable explanation. All that the leading scientists were asking, in summary, was: How does the human body, which generates between 36.5 -37. 5 degree Centigrade of heat, suddenly produce between 760 – 980 degrees Centigrade or more in cremation model to burn human flesh and bones to ash?. In their book, THE CREATION OF HEALTH, U.S. Surgeon Norman Sheally and Caroline Myss (please see the internet) theorized 20 years later, in 1999, though on a different platform, of ENERGY MEDICINE, that life of a higher order than our earthly body’s origin resides inside the mortal flesh.
VIVID DREAMS
I have had vivid dreams than I can share here due to the limitation of space. I cannot stop talking about one of them. This concerns my father’s passing on 26th August 1998, when I was 48. On 24 August of that year, my mother, who passed away on 5 August 1959( 39 years earlier), walked past me on a road, saying: BABA ETI JADE KURO L’AYE (Your father has left the earth). That day, I asked Mr. Gbenga George, who worked with me in the office, to run my car to his house and take him to Professor Bukola Adefule-Oshitelu, his eye doctor at LASUTH, for his clinic appointment. I promised to see him later, five days later, on Saturday, 29 August. That was a serious intellectual blunder. The Spirit warned me what had been designed and accomplished in a higher sphere of existence to manifest on earth, but I responded to it by relying on my earthly convenience. That Saturday was when his earthly remains were interred according to his WILL, which he reminded me of in a dream.
At 3:40 a.m. on 26 August, he came to me in a dream, looking more than 20 years younger. He held my hand, placed one of my stepmother’s hands on it, and held both hands with his above, and then said: MO TI LO O, RANTI GBOGO OUN TI A JOSO SE EHIN MI NI RE O. I have gone, remember all that we discussed, tidy my affairs well. I rose from that dream at 3:40 a.m., 20 minutes after he passed, as I would learn later from my brother, Mr. Yinka Kusa, who lived with him.
OBE NOT DREAM
The OBE I spoke of earlier was not a dream. It was a real-life experience in the ASTRAL or ETHEREAL body. The physical or dust, earthly body is the outermost covering of the Spirit. The other coverings and the Spirit minus the earthly covering is what we call the soul. Between the earthly body and the last of the ethereal bodies nearer to the dust body is the ASTRAL body. That is the one we call the GHOST, which a departing soul drags along and may be visible until the Soul is too distant to animate or energize it, and it falls away in a disintegration process.
One of the wishes I was reminded of in that dream was the interment of the earthly remains not later than the Saturday which would follow the passage. I report these events in gratitude to those members of the staff of THE GUARDIAN who attended the interment at that very short notice. My first OBE was the preparation ground for this event 24 years later at 48. That OBE was not a hallucination as many psychiatrists may like to suggest. In that OBE, I saw and fought with a real person. His astral or ethereal body was tangible and close to mine. My dust body was deep asleep in bed. He wanted to approach it. My intuitive sensing was that this must not happen. In that ensuing struggle, a SINGER refrigerator in the room was overturned, and two props of the writing desk were broken. My OBE body found its way back to its earthly cloak. Meanwhile, co-residents of the house gathered by the door of my room. I opened the door. They saw my grandmother, who lived nearby and came that night to set up prayers till dawn. At dawn, one of my uncles, who heard of the episode, came to take me away. I became afraid to sleep at night, irrespective of traditional medicine approaches to help me. I was due to go to university the following month. Was this the way my life would give way?, I ask myself. If that fellow could come to me through the medium of the air, I wished to know the process through which he came so that, through it, I could protect myself in the future. That volition set me on the path of SPIRITUAL ENQUIRY, which began to give me a better understanding of different conceptions than culture and religion had offered.
When the student is ready, the teacher will surface, it is said. I found THE WORLD TEACHER in His Work IN UYO, then in Cross River State, during youth corp camping in 1977, three years after that first OBE. By 1978, I had become unafraid of existence and even made a WILL at 28 for a quiet funeral whenever I would be called away. At 38, I was Editor of THE GUARDIAN newspaper, in succession to Lade Bonuola, the pioneer editor, and imbued with the lofty volition to expand not only the business reach and financial fortunes but also to lead the readers back to Mother Nature in respect of their health and spiritualize their ways and means. I need to state that spiritual life is different from religious life.Editorial dream compartmentalisation of THE GUARDIAN bore witness to this dream with the emergence of such sections as PROPERTY and NATURAL HEALTH, TRANSPORTATION, and AGRICULTURE. It was the first newspaper content compartmentalisation in Nigeria, which unified editorial and advertisement content as a market and made the newspaper a real business bug as well as the “hammer and anvil of social solidarity”. I encouraged Mrs. Elizabeth Kafaru to write a column in the Natural Health section where I featured,as reporter, Adetutu Folashade-Koyi, the daughter of a Nigerian who in the decades before then produced two leading traditional pediatric medicine …OMO RE LA (baby survives) and OMOLAYO BABY MIXTURE (baby Is Joy…). So, to fellow was GBOMORO (baby sustainer). This section discovered JUBI BLOOD FORMULA now sold as JOBELYN.
When Europe produced VIAGRA for male sexual virility, I found Delan Okpalaeke, a microbiology graduate of Lagos State University, to carry out a kitchen experiment I designed to prove that OGBOLO (d:m:m), a Yoruba parasitic root, could make men produce more sperm and semen with better morphology and motility. About 30 men and different laboratories participated. I presented the report in Okpalaeke’s name to the medical and lay communities. Our report won a €1.5 million First Prize in the CNN AFRICAN JOURNAL AWARD of that year!
My interest in Alternative Medicine derived from an earthen ware pot of cowries and palm fruit kernel I saw in my mother’s wardrobe after her demise when I was nine. One of my aunts said it was to remind her to guide my paths in line with divination of a life in healing arts. One statement in the teachings of THE WORLD TEACHER about the health of the human body touched me. My own recall of it is that… NEITHER DRUGS NOR INJECTIONS BUT THE RIGHT KINDS OF FOODS AND DRINKS BRING LASTING HEALTH. The excitement plunged me into Alternative Medicine advocacy till this day.
LIFE AT 50, 60
It is wrong to assume life is all over at retirement from paid employment. It was in these years that I discovered more assuring that our universe is configured with several POWER CENTERS of our making by exercise of FREE WILL and that, in relations to and with them, we are like radio or television receiving sets and they are like broadcasting stations. Christians call the negative power center THE PRINCIPALITIES. Whenever we think of anything, we open ourselves to transmission from the homogeneous power centers. Thus, our thoughts can inspire us for good or ill, and we would harvest the fruits of out actions. If I was successful as Editor of The Guardian and later, as its Director of Publications/ Editor-in-Chief from tye age of 42, this knowledge was the enhancer of my abilities.
LIFE AT 70 ONWARD
Working in the knowledge of THE LAW OF MOTION that there must be NO STANDSTILL in human existence, I find joy in helping to correct misconceptions in all matters connected to the purpose of human existence, as advised by THE WORLD TEACHER. We talk so much about WEATHER CHANGE and the money we can make from it without linking it to three great events in the Universe, namely:
• In The COSMIC CALENDAR, the Earth has been shifted from the Radiations of the PISCEAN AGE to that of the AQUARIAN AGE in which we now exist.
• Simultaneously, the gigantic Universe has completed a COSMIC TURNING POINT, which exposes all its forms to stronger Radiations.
• A huge Star as powerful as the Star of Bethlehem is known to be on its way towards the Earth from the same origin as the Bethlehem Star, this time not as a greeting from the Father but to close the cycle of the coming of the Son of God to the Earth and to open the cycle of the SON OF MAN (The Holy Spirit), which will proclaim the Judgement.
Christians made a serious mistake by unifying the conception of the Son of God and the Son of Man, and not understanding the importance of those three events for increasingly traumatising conditions on Earth today, as everything outside the Will of God (The Holy Spirit or the Son of Man) is overturned. Didn’t Jesus, the Son of God, warn that the Holy Spirit would not forgive our sins? Jesus only came to forewarn that the judgement was coming. Lucifer was already bound for the Millennium; the Holy Spear, symbol of His Power, having been wrested from His Hands in a serious encounter with Someone from an Origin higher than His. Paradoxically, Adolf Hitler conquered many European countries in search of the Holy Spear, and the Chalice, believing they were on this Earth, and whichever country possessed it would rule the Earth. The Chalice, too, is by no means the cup in which the Lord Jesus served wine to His Disciples during the last supper or tye one I which the Blood of Jesus on the Cross was caught. Nor was the Spear the one thrust into the abdomen of Jesus to confirm He was dead, and thereby prevent the breaking of His Bones by the Romans.
In the 70s and probably well beyond it, persons who have been touched by the teachings of THE WORLD TEACHER stand in duty to help ignorant humanity. Thus, life cannot come to a standstill at any age under whatever condition. Did Moses and Elijah not appear with Jesus in Gethsemane during His Transfiguration? Were they in any graves resting, as many Christians believe departed persons do, another grave error of human teaching of God’s Will?
Dr. Ken’s suggestion that men should have sex 21 times a month for a healthy prostate gland must devitalise them in various ways and be very counterproductive. Sexual intercourse is normal, but is not too much of anything destructive? Sex is like food, water, and rest to the healthy human body. Were it not so, the Creator would not have placed the sexual instinct in the body, which, being of animal origin, defined sexual intercourse as an animal act. Dr. Devendra Vora, author of “Health in Your Hands,” limits some adult stage categories to no more than one time in a month for optimal health and well-being. He was a much sought-after reflex zone physician of the hands and feet who saw about 2.5 million patients a year, more than some orthodox medicine doctor saw in a lifetime. He probably knew of the purpose of human existence in a physical body made from dust, of the generative power produced when the indwelling human spirit glows into the dust body, of how this dust body is to serve the spirit as a vessel during its sojourn on earth, of how generative power supports this venture as a bridge across which the spirit connects to the physical world through the dust body, of how sex may dissipate the generative power and weaken those spirits’ activities. Some doctors have worsened matters by saying pregnant women should have sex to relax their pelvic muscles for easy childbirth. They forget that babies in the womb may be really enjoying the sexual activities of their parents-to-be. The Bible reports that the Lord Jesus and John the Baptist, His forerunner, as babies in their respective mothers’ wombs, leapt for joy (on seeing each other during the visit of Mary, mother of Jesus, to Elizabeth,mother of John the Baptist. When we say young women and men of today are sexually loose, could this be because they participated in the sexual experiences of their parents before they were born?
