MIRACLE WILD HERBS- Dandelion

MIRACLE WILD HERBS - DANDELION


While many people think of the dandelion as a weed, herbalists know it as valuable herb that can be used as a food and medicine.


 

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale)

Hundreds of species of dandelion grow in Europe, Asia, and North America. Dandelion is a perennial that can grow to a height of nearly 12 inches. Dandelions have deeply notched, toothy, spatula-like leaves that are shiny and hairless. Dandelion stems are capped by bright yellow flowers. The grooved leaves funnel rain to the root.

Dandelion flowers open with the sun in the morning and close in the evening or during gloomy weather. The dark brown roots are fleshy and brittle and are filled with a white milky substance that is bitter and pungent.

Dandelion is a rich source of vitamins A, B complex, C, and D, as well as minerals such as iron, potassium, and zinc. Dandelion leaves are used to add flavor to salads, sandwiches, and teas. The roots are used in some coffee substitutes, and the flowers are used to make wines.

Parts Used:

Dandelion leaves act as a diuretic, increasing the amount of urine the body produces. The leaves are used to stimulate the appetite and help digestion.

Dandelion flowers have antioxidant properties. Dandelions may also help improve the immune system.

Traditionally, dandelion roots and leaves were used to treat liver problems. Native Americans also boiled dandelion in water and took it to treat kidney disease, swelling, skin problems, heartburn, and upset stomach.

In traditional Chinese medicine, dandelion has been used to treat stomach problems, appendicitis, and breast problems, such as inflammation or lack of milk flow.

In Europe, it was used in remedies for fever, boils, eye problems, diabetes, and diarrhea.

Today, the roots are mainly used as an appetite stimulant, and for liver and gallbladder problems. Dandelion leaves are used as a diuretic to help the body get rid of excess fluid.

Herbalists use dandelion root to detoxify the liver and gallbladder, and dandelion leaves to support kidney function.

Medicinal Uses and Indications:

Traditionally, dandelion has been used a diuretic, to increase the amount of urine the body produces in order to get rid of excess fluid. It has been used for many conditions where a diuretic might help, such as liver problems and high blood pressure. However, there is no good research on using dandelion as a diuretic in people.

Fresh or dried dandelion herb is also used as a mild appetite stimulant and to improve upset stomach. The root of the dandelion plant may act as a mild laxative and has been used to improve digestion. There is some very preliminary research that suggests dandelion may help improve liver and gallbladder function, but the study was not well designed.

Some preliminary animal studies also suggest that dandelion may help normalize blood sugar levels and lower total cholesterol and triglycerides while raising HDL, "good," cholesterol in diabetic mice. But not all the animal studies have found a positive effect on blood sugar. Human studies are needed to see if dandelion would work in people.

A few animal studies also suggest that dandelion might help fight inflammation.

Available Forms:


Dandelion herbs and roots are available fresh or dried in a variety of forms, including tinctures, liquid extract, teas, tablets, and capsules. Dandelion can be found alone or combined with other dietary supplements.

How to Take It:

Eating dandelion in food is safe for a child.  Ask your doctor before giving dandelion supplements to a child, so your doctor can help you determine the dose.  Some traditional doses include:

•Dried leaf infusion: 1 - 2 teaspoonfuls, 3 times daily. Pour hot water onto dried leaf and steep for 5 - 10 minutes. Drink as directed.

•Dried root decoction: 1/2 - 2 teaspoonfuls, 3 times daily. Place root into boiling water for 5 - 10 minutes. Strain and drink as directed.

•Leaf tincture (1:5) in 30% alcohol: 30 - 60 drops, 3 times daily

•Standardized powdered extract (4:1) leaf: 500 mg, 1 - 3 times daily

•Standardized powdered extract (4:1) root: 500 mg, 1 - 3 times daily

•Root tincture (1:2) fresh root in 45% alcohol: 30 - 60 drops, 3 times daily

Precautions:

For these reasons, you should take herbs with care, under the supervision of a health care provider. The use of herbs is a time-honored approach to strengthening the body and treating disease. Herbs, however, contain components that can trigger side effects and interact with other herbs, supplements, or medications.

Dandelion is generally considered safe. Some people may develop an allergic reaction from touching dandelion, and others may develop mouth sores.

If you are allergic to ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigold, chamomile, yarrow, daisies, or iodine, you should avoid dandelion.

In some people, dandelion can cause increased stomach acid and heartburn. It may also irritate the skin if applied topically.

People with kidney problems, gallbladder problems, or gallstones should ask their health care provider before eating dandelion.

Possible Interactions:


Dandelion leaf may act as a diuretic, which can speed up how fast drugs leave your system. If you are taking prescription medications, ask your health care provider before taking dandelion leaf. If you are currently being treated with any of the following medications, you should not use dandelion without first talking to your health care provider:

Antacids -- Dandelion may increase the amount of stomach acid, so antacids may not work as well.

Blood-thinning medications -- Theoretically, dandelion is a blood thinner, so it may increase the risk of bleeding, especially if you already take blood-thinners such as aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin), or clopidogrel (Plavix).

Diuretics (water pills) -- Dandelion may act as a diuretic, increasing the amount of urine to help your body get rid of excess fluid. If you also take prescription diuretics or other herbs that act as diuretic, you could be at risk for an electrolyte imbalance.

Lithium -- Animal studies suggest that dandelion may make the side effects of lithium worse. Lithium is used to treat bipolar disorder.

Ciproflaxin (Cipro) -- One species of dandelion, Taraxacum mongolicum, also called Chinese dandelion, may lower the absorption of the antibiotic ciproflaxin from the digestive tract. Researchers don' t know whether the common dandelion would do the same thing.

Medications for diabetes -- Theoretically, dandelion may lower blood sugar levels. If you take medications for diabetes, taking dandelion may increase the risk of low blood sugar.

Inspired by the 2008 documentary film "Unnatural Causes," which shared many of the tenets that we agree, still need to be rectified in the urban community. "So many are getting sick and dying prematurely from "Unnatural Causes."




“Access to proven health protective resources like clean air, healthy food, and recreational space, as well as opportunities for high quality education, living wage employment, and decent housing, is highly dependent on the neighborhood in which one lives. These inequities cluster and accumulate over people’s lives and over time successfully conspire to diminish the ultimate quality and length of life in these neighborhoods…”

*Homicide is the 6th leading cause of death. Before that is Heart Attack, High blood pressure, Diabetes, and Cancers and stroke, that can be reduced or eliminated by what we choose to put into our mouths and how we detox what we are exposed to in our environment.

*We need to address and relieve the correlation between Food and stress.

*We need to alleviate and expose the target marketing and institutionalization of additive consumerism found in toxic fast food – drive through restaurants, saturated alcohol marketing, highly processed and GMOs (Genetically Modified Objects)

*We need to obtain relief from codependency to prescription and illegal drug addiction

*We need to re-mediate the Unsafe, polluted, and hazardous waste environments.

Solutions:

*Limit number and density of fast food restaurants, especially in low-income areas.
*Increase healthy food availability:
Retain and attract Farmers markets and locally Grown Food stores and restaurants through tax write-offs and other incentives.
*Streamline permitting, zoning variances and local government support for Urban Farming.
*Strengthen alternative sources of fresh produce such as farmers’ markets, community and school based produce stands.
*Enforce regulations to limit nuisance activity (litter, prostitution, drug dealing) in and around stores and market places.
*Limit the hours of operation and restrict the sale of cheap, fortified alcohol products
*Establish and enforce regulations to restrict the number of liquor stores in census tracts with an over-concentration of off -sale premises.

What Makes Communities Healthy?

*Clean air, water, access to healthy foods,
*Elements of economic, social, and physical environments, represented by the people within the community
*Having 
Community services, Recreation and other social supports, 
*Cultural Autonomy and Respect
*Having access entrepreneurial support and green jobs,
*Home ownership, affordable housing
*Belonging, Safety, trust,
*Safe places to walk and play,
*Good relationships with civic servants who are free of racism, class-ism, and sexism

Rise Up From Niggers to Ngus

Our Youth have been using this word "Nigga" to define themselves and their way of life for over 2 decades now. Some adults have succumbed to lowering their standards to accommodate this word- even using it themselves and justifying it in scriptural translations, "Niger" or using these names that Western thinkers renamed our Afrikan people and countries by... 'Negro' is a Spanish word meaning 'Black.' Negro is closely connected to the word 'Necro,' a Greek word, which means 'Dead.'
 The use of Negro, Nigger, Niggas -equates to the perversion of our sacred words for Khem, Mur, "Black" Ngu. The words Negro and Nigger are words that were used in the 40s and 50s, under Jim Crow Law to dehumanize, pervert, identify and mark our men, in particular and people of color over all, into a low cast classification system for slavery and genocide. Nigger, Negro are words of abuse and self hate, when they are continually used by our young people who are the victims. Many Black people think that it is ok to be defined by others, and to be called Nigger, Nigga, Negro, Colored, minority, or non-white, is acceptable. This is confusion!












How The Word For GOD, "N-Gu" (Net-ger) became Nigger, Nigga, Negro and "Niger"

The first people to corrupt the term "N-Gu" were the Roman invaders of Egypt who may have heard the term used to describe the
leader of Egypt or Nubia. The term "NGu" was later used to mean any Black/Negroid person that the Romans saw in Africa or anywhere else.

The Romans tried to invade Nubia during the early years of the Christian Era. Then, Nubia-Kush was ruled by a line of Queens called "Ka'nda ki's (Candace). One such queen and her son defeated the Roman army at Aswan, (see: http://community.webtv.net/paulnubiaempire) Egypt and burned the Roman Fort.
AND CARRIED THE BRONZE HEAD OF ROMAN EMPEROR AGUSTUS TO THE CUSHITE (NUBIAN) CITY OF NAPATA.

The Romans colonized and spread the Latin language to Europe. Due to this linguistic influence, the Latin or French term "Niger" or "Negre"  and "Negro" in Spanish.

The English colonialists and slave entity borrowed the term "Negro" from the Spanish. The term for Black people in England before Shakespeare was "Moor" or "Black-a-Moor." The English slave owners degraded and defiled the entire name by turning the Negro into a slave and turning the original term "Ned-ger" or "God" into the racist term "Nigger." One can say that they have insulted the sacred name for "God" and have oppressed the original people created by God. This phenomena is due to their own sense of inferiority.

WE MUST TEACH OUR YOUTH THAT THIS WORD IS INTOLERABLE AND UNACCEPTABLE!

We are giving our children an erroneous assumption by encouraging the use of these dehumanizing, offensive and abusive words! Nigger, Negro, Nigga does NOT EQUAL NGU!

Ngu- Negus- Naga, Ngus, Nguzo, Ngami, Nkosi and Ngoma-N-T- Nu- Nut/Net (feminine) are words of rulership, principle and power.

Negus= Amharic ngus, from Classical Ethiopic ngu, king, ruler, verbal adjective of naga, to rule, become king; (see ng in Semitic roots.)](Free Dictionary/ Wikipedia)

If you take the vowels out of most these words,  you have fundamentally the N and G. As taught by, Sba Sasteh Meter  "The N=Neteru (God), Nut/Net (Star Goddess/Principal), Nu(Primordial Water Goddess Principle), - are the oldest words for Nature, Natural Gods and Heaven. The G=Geb- The oldest word for Earth. Put the N-G together and you have Heaven and Earth." Ta also means earth ergo the Neteru- N-T

Nkosi,' means 'King,' in many Afrikan dialects. In 'Niger,' the word for 'Serpent' is 'Nyoka.' The Snake represent the sacred symbol for rising of the Kundalini chakras.  N'gola, and Nyarnban or 'Nyoke ' are from Swahili. In Basuto, the word for 'Serpent' is 'Noga.' The 'Nk' or 'Ng' is the original sound, according to the "METU NETER" by Ra Un Nefer Amen on pg. 63 states " "Ng(k)," Nada, undifferentiated energy/matter to give rise to the ninth manifestation. The ninth manifestation is known as the "Mother of all living things." Gerald Massey maintained that the 'Y' in the names is NOT a primary sound, but rather one that evolved from 'G.' Naya or Nayya in many North American Native tribal dialects also means 'Serpent.'

The Dogon God-Serpent and the KaMaTa (Egyptian) Serpents are identical. The God-Serpent is called "The One who Dances in the Shadows." In the Dogon's pantheon, the seventh ancestor transformed into a Serpent (Note: It is also within the Dogon's system of life that it takes three male spirits plus three female spirits to bring forth the Seventh generation Hu{e}man Beings, made of Spirit flowing through a Body; Showing everyone that every thought becomes physical or is made to matter in the seventh generation of thought) From this sepulcher the Ancestor Serpent rises up to dance underground in the darkness and to move toward the tomb of the oldest man (The Soul embedded in the Pineal Gland, which oversees the Third Ventricle).

According to "AFRICAN ORIGIN OF BIOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY" by Dr. Richard King, states, "the name for serpent exists in hieroglyphics where 'Nkakais' synonymously interchanged with 'Nakaad' in the Egyptian hymn to Amen-RA, the Sun God is said to send his arrows against the serpent 'Naka.'

The Chaldeans taught the Serpent Men, Nakash-Na, warred with Sut-Typhon (Titans). China’s pyramids were built by the Moi of Vietnam and the Nakhis of Southern China, remnant of the ancient Mu (Mu'urish) civilizations.
the Vedic Sanskrit word 'Gu-ru,' meaning 'Wise' or 'Teacher' was derived from the Afrikan word 'N-Gu-ru.' There is also a chakra called the Guru Chakra, which is part of the Crown Chakra. It is two inches over the top of the head. The Third Eye or Brow Chakra (Ajna-Chakra) is also called the Guru Chakra.

'Ngu-ni' is an Ama-Zulu word that means "Ancient Ones." Ngu-ni is the group name for the Zulu, Xhosa, Swazi, Ndebele, Shangaan and Ngoni peoples.

'Ngo-nyama' means 'Lion,' another "Praise Name" for an AmaZulu King.

The connection with "Black" and "dead" is not necessarily a Negative one. (Naga the"Black Serpent," "Magnetic Current" or Ida in the Yoga traditions)

Shaman healers often depended upon journeys into other realms above and below to contact ancestors and forces and to achieve power. In the esoteric sense, when the Kundalini has been properly unleashed, it produces a multi-interdimensional process. Psychic abilities develop, such as clairvoyance, clairaudience, psychometrics, telepathy, telekinesis, levitation, healing powers, prophesy, past-life memories, out-of body experiences (Astral travel, by activation of the Solar Chakra and Soul travel, by the activation of the Crown Chakra or Third Eye, yields direct awareness of auras and chakras, for lucid dreams and vivid Life-like visions and contact with the Aku (ancestors) and spirit guides through inner voices. Thus, Black people learnt how to communicate with the ancestors through the mind via DNA memory.
'Ngr,' means "Golden One," in KaMA'at (Egypt) Medu Neter. It is another form of Geb. It is also a termed for the "King-Initiate." It is the same word as Neb Heru (Kama'at) or Nibiru (Sumerian), the Golden Light (Auric Halo).

Ngu, means "Serpent King." It is a title that is bestowed upon the KaMaTa God King (Pharaoh) Priest, who has mastered the Healing science of the Uraeus.
Nga, which means "Serpent Queen." It is a title that is bestowed upon the KaMaTa Queen, who has mastered the Healing science of the Uraeus.
Niagara (River Fall)' means 'Black' is a city in upstate New York boarding Canada.
"Nega Negast" An Ethiopian word which, means "(Serpent) King of Kings."
"Nag Hammadi" An ancient Aramaic and Hebrew scripture which means "The Serpent Black Guide."
'Naga-saki'- A Japanese city destroyed by an atomic bomb in 1945, by the U.S. and it means "Serpent Spirit" or "Serpent Life-Force.
The Naacal writings are called Neferit, or Medu Neter ("THE SACRED SYMBOLS OF MU" by James Churchward).

Neteru or 'Netjer' is the Medu origin of the word which means "God; God of Wisdom or Force of Nature". "Neteru-Ankh" KaMaTa Serpent God through whose body the Boat of Afu RA is pulled by twelve Amikhiu Neter (Gods), entering the tail and exiting the mouth, which results in Afura being transformed into Khepera, now towed into the sky by twelve goddesses.

'Nergal' is "the Healer" in the Sumerian lore. In ancient Samaria, the Anu-Naki ('Heavenly Serpent" "Sun Serpent" or "Serpent and the Rainbow") were Serpents, and Naki (E-NKI or s-NAKE) name for the Initiates of Chaldea, corresponding to the Nagas or "Snake-Kings" of the Buddhist legends, who preserves and guards the ancient truths. From these bloodlines has come the origin of the "Divine Right of Kings." There is a direct link between the Dracontia, the Lemurian, Atlantean architects and builders who were originally, the Brotherhood of the Snake/dragon, initiated by the Sumerian god E. A. or En.ki, the Serpent (Kundalini and DNA) in the Garden of Eden (Universe and Body) who is credited with building temples and teaching the people. The Medu Neteru (Hieroglyphs), cosmological monuments and institutions of the peoples of Central and South America prove indisputably the existence of communication between America, Afraka and India. Shubigaruth is an ancient Sumerian name for God, called later in Latin “Pan” (which means ALL in ALL). It is a reference to the constellation Sirius.

Nakiel- Another name of the Arch-Angel Uriel, in Hebrew means "Serpent of God," or "Knowledge of God."

The wife of Anubis (An-pu, An or Anu) was Anu-kis or A-Nuki-s (Anu-Naki, Oannes, Nommo). She sails the Celestial Boat of RA, with Sothis (Soquet, Sirius) and Satis.


'Naga,' means 'Serpent' in the Vedic Sanskrit. The Hindu Naga Serpent Gods of India are mention in the "UPANISHAD TEXTS". Naga (Nagini - fem) - Indian Serpent Ruler, son of Kadru (Kedar in Hebrew means 'Black'), daughter of Daksha, was a title of Spiritual Power among Humans. It is first important to note that the Snake (Serpent Spirit) has been a symbol of wisdom, eternity healing, mystery, Magical power, and holiness throughout most of the ancient non-western world. It's symbol is used today in medicine, and other healing professions (Caduceus; U-RAeus), - and its live descendants are hailed as sacred and used in everything from cancer drugs to sex potions. Naga represents the energy of Life and Death. The Naga spirits bring rain and rule the Underworld (the Belly or Navel Chakra), the Nagas are manifestations of 'Agni' (fire), the Spirit Guardians; divided into four classes: 1. Heavenly 2. Divine 3. Earthly or 4. Hidden. The connections between the Blacks in Afrika- and of India are strikingly similar, that even the names given to the various 'Naga' peoples of India and those of Afrika are the same in spelling and sound. For example, certain groups in Sudan are called 'Nagas,' whereas in India, Brahaman Vedic groups with racial features similar to the people of Sudan are also called 'Nagas.' "W. Robertson, "AN HISTORICAL DISQUISITION OF INDIA," Pub. 1794, Page 274. "The Brahmins, it is well known, borrowed religion, as well as, all other sciences of civilization, from the highly civilized Nagas, whom afterwards, they relentlessly persecuted." The languages spoken by the 'Naga's and other Dravidians such as Telegu, Malayalam, Kanada and others are related to the Kushite languages of East Afrika, such as Gala and those spoken by the Nilotic peoples. Moreover, these languages spread to West Afrika and far beyond India into Cambodia and South China. The ancient Indians belonged to the Kushite-Nubian Afrikan race. Of this group of ancient Afrikans, the Naga People were and still are the largest subgroup of the Kushitic speaking branch of India. In fact, the 'Nagas' retain the title 'Naga' in various forms throughout Afrika and South Asia even today. There are many examples of the term 'Naga' still being used to describe various groups in Afrika and Asia. For example, two Afrikan tribes of West AFRIKA are called "Nuga-rmar-ta" and "Nago-mina" who were establishers of great civilizations in Ghana and Mali that existed in the region before 1000 B.C.E. In the Mossi tribe King is currently called 'Naga', which is 'Naba,' which later developed into 'Nuba' or 'Nubia.' The word 'Nahas' (Nahsi) is another word for 'Nubian.' Names of tribes and nationalities such as 'Nuer,' 'Nuba,' 'Nubian', and the North Amerikan/Delaware Nanticoke nation, the 'Le-Nape'or "EL Nabe" are all related to the Naga tribes of India and South Asia." In "THE MAGIC AND FOLK BELIEFS OF THE SOUTHERN NEGRO" by Newbile Niles Puckett, he states, "Thousands of Negroes from these serpent worshipping tribes were at this time sold into slavery They bore with them their cult of the snake. At the same period these Ewe speaking slaves [sic] were taken to Louisiana (mixed in with the IX-Olmec descendants, the Washita." Long before the Caucasian barbarians infiltrated India, the Afrikan Nagas, ruled India as well as a substantial portion of Asia from Arabia to China and the South Pacific, as well as the Indian Ocean region. In India, Afrikans built the magnificent cities of Harrappa and Mohenjo-daro. It is one of the world's most glorious civilizations.
The Babylonian word 'Nabu' or the Biblical (Hebrew) word 'Nebo' is related to the word 'Nuba.' 'Nabu' or the Hebrew-Assyrian word 'Nebo' means 'Prophet or 'Eye ' as in the "All-Seeing Eye." 'Nabu' (Tehuti, Imhotep) was the son of Marduk (Asaru) was the scribe and herald of the gods. Moreover, 'Nabi' is the Arabic equivalent, which means "Master of Knowledge" and is derived from the ancient Kama'atu (Egyptian) word 'Neb.' meaning 'Gold.' 'Neb' (Serpent) spelt backwards is 'Ben,' (Phoenix-Bird or "Serpent in the Sky") short for "Ben," meaning 'Source' or 'Spring.'
  
"Naga-RAj," means "King of Serpents" or "Serpent King."
"Naga-bhushan," means "One who wears Snakes as ornaments of Shiva."
"Nag-endRA, means "King of Snakes."
"Nag-esh," means, "Snake in Man."
"Naga Kanya," means "Snake of the rainbow." The Naga Kanya a Seven-headed Naga, a counterpart of the God Vishnu. Naga-rjuna of India, for example, is shown with an aura, or halo, of Seven Serpents that is an indication of a very high degree of Initiation. The symbolisms of the Seven Serpents, usually cobras, are the (7) Seven Chakras, also on Masonic aprons of certain systems in the Buddhistic ruins of Cambodia (Angk-or = "Ankh Ur" means "Living Light") and Ceylon.

"Naga Lakshmi," means "Queen of Snakes."
"Naga-mani," means the "Mind (Gem) of Serpents."
'Nagal' means "Serpent-God" and is the title of the medicine men, magicians and initiates in ancient Mexico, Central and South American Indigenous civilizations. Nagal is another name of Quetzalcoatl; the Mexican "Winged -Plumed Serpent God (Kundalini Shakti energy). "
In Buddhism, Wisdom has always been tied, symbolically, to the figure of the Serpent. The Buddha resting on the coils of the Naga Serpent Mucalinda sheltered the Buddha from a weeklong rainstorm by enfolding him in his coils; this tale is from Angkor Wat. The great temple-builders of the famous Ankgor Wat were considered the semi-divine 'Khmers'

'Aguna' is the Solomon Islands Serpent Mother Goddess.
'Naggai' is Hebrew and it means "giving light: shining: brilliant: illuminating: enlightening: luminous intelligence."
'Nachash,' is Hebrew and means 'Serpent.' In Arabic, it is 'Naya' (Nayya) or 'Nachaas'; in fact, the Arabic word for "Serpent People" is 'Naas,'(gNos-is) and this is the real of the People or those made from mud "Black mud (Melanin)." 'Naasuwt' and even in English, it is s-Nake. Neke and Nakahi-Maori are also names for 'Serpents.' According to the "METU NETER" by Ra Un Nefer Amen pg 98, states"the hieroglyphic symbol for this part of the spirit is a serpent (Apep, Nak, from whence Nachash, - the "serpent" that spoke to the woman in the Garden of Eden). This part of the spirit is composed of subtle electro-magnetic energies that have the function of animating Man's life, especially the physical body. Hence, the name "animal spirit," or "anima and animus," as it was called in the Latin spiritual tradition. Our modern use of the term "animal" to denote the creatures that are thus identified is an example of muddling thinking. All things in this world are infused with this animating spirit, called the Kundalini Prana."
'Nazarene' (Nasarene, Naaserene or Naas) is a Hebrew (Her Web/Het Heru) word which means "Aider, Helper or Friend;" according to "WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY" means "a native or resident of Nazareth 2a: Christian" From the Hebrew (Het Heru, as in the Golden Calf/Heb Heru) word 'Nazar-ene,' 'Nasir' or 'Nasar'/ 'Ansar' or 'Naas;' the Greek word 'Gnosis' or 'gNosis,' which means 'knowledge,' 'recognition' or 'intuitive' and the word Greek word 'Essene,' which is derives the word Essence, meaning "the individual," 'real,' or ultimate Nature (Neter) of a thing 2: something that exists: ENTITY. The 'Essene' "a member of a monastic brotherhood of (real) Jews (Her-Web/ Heb-Rews/ Het Heru) in Palestine from the 2nd century B.C. to the 2nd century A.D." Both words are derived from the Heb-rew word Nazi-r.

'Nazareth' a town in Palestine, which did NOT exist until after the so-called death of Jesus Christ.
'Nazirite' or 'Nazarite' according to "WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY' means "a (real) Jew (Heb-rew or Het Heru, the "House of [Heru]-Light) of biblical times consecrated to God by a vow esp. to avoid drinking wine, cutting the hair, and being defiled by a corpse." The German word 'Nazi,' the German fascist party controlled under Hitler in 1933 to 1945, is also derived from the Heb-rew word 'Nazi-r' or 'Nazi-rite.' In addition, the "HOLY BIBLE" speaks of Mount 'Nisir.' The "HOLY BIBLE" states that Jesus was a 'Nazarene,' from Nazareth (Even Though, Nazareth was NOT a town until years later after the so-called crucifixion (crucifixion). Hence, the origin of the "HOLY BIBLE NEW TESTAMENT" Matthew 10:16 verse "Be ye therefore wise as Serpents, yet gentle as doves."
In China, the Naga is given the form of the dragon, also called the "dragon Spirit" and has a direct association with the Emperor-King, and is known as the "Son of Heaven." In Tibet, they are still known in a symbolic sense and are called "Lu (D-rag-On)!"

The word Naga is rooted in Sanskrit and means "Serpent". In the East Indian pantheon it is connected with the Serpent Spirit and the Dragon Spirit. It has a equivalency to the Burmese Nats, or god-serpents. In the Esoteric Tradition it is synonymous for Adepts, or Initiates. In India and Egypt, and even in Central and South America, the Naga stands for one who is wise.
"N-G-R"(pronounced "Net-ger") The word "Net-yer" or "Net-ger" from which the English terms "nature" and "nurture" came from. The idea of God being nature and nature being God, comes from the African and KaMaTa idea of what God is which shows down to the similarities in the terms used to describe aspects of the Godhead.

THE SACRED "N" IN THE AFRICAN AND AFRO-ASIATIC LANGUAGES

The letter "N" is one of the most important prefixes in the African, Afro-Asiatic, Indo-Negroid, Negro-Australoid, Melanesian, Australian Aborigine, Austric, Kong-San (Bushmanoid), Sudroid languages. In fact, the sacred "N" as in "Ni-han" (Rising Sun) OR "NG" as in "ChaNG," (ChaNGo in Manding-Congo), "Ndong" in Vietnamese (Ndongo (Angolan Kingdom) in African Manding-Congo languages) is also found in both Chinese and Japanese. In fact ancient Chinese, Vietnamese, South Indian, SriLankan, Melanesian, Australian Aboriginal and modern Japanese show strong similarities to Bantu (proto-historic Sahara, Niger-Congo), languages (see "African Presence Early Asia," by Ivan Van Sertima and Runoko Rashidi) See also the works of Clyde A. Winters also go to: http://community.webtv.net/nubianem(HISTORY TIMELINE) andhttp://www.cwo.com/~lucumi/runoko.html

The letter "N" is also the word that denotes any title pertaining to human beings. In fact in Bantu or Niger-Congo and Cushic languages, the letter "N" is found as the first letter in many names. For example the name "Ndaba," = "council" while the name "Ndabaningi" is the first name of Africans in region thereof.

"N-G-R" (Net-ger) was seen as a representation of the sun and the Sun God. The original Pharaohs who were pure Black.  Afrikans SAW BLACK SKIN AS SACRED AND A DIRECT BLESSING FROM THE SUN GOD, AMEN(ATEN, ATUM.) In fact Blackness and Black skin became associated with God and the sun. BLACK PEOPLE WERE POWERFUL, CULTURALLY ADVANCED, MILITARILY SUPERIOR, BLACK/DARK/BROWN IN COMPLEXION, STRONG STATURE, TALL AND DESCRIBED AS A "HANDSOME" RACE , (SEE HERODOTUS, "THE HISTORIES, DESCRIPTIONS OF "ETHIOPIANS" OF AFRICA AND SOUTH INDIA).

The recognition of the Pharaoh as a living God and the black skin as a blessing spread worldwide to other cultures. In fact the term "Net-ger" became the Ethiopian "Negus" or "Negashi."

In the Sudroid (Indo-Negroids of India) languages of India, which are part of the Cushite branch of the African languages, the term "Naga" denotes original or first.
In fact, in ancient India, the people with the blackest skins were respected and held to igh esteem, unlike today where the racist, colonialist and alien concept of "varna" or castecolor racism places Sudroids, Indo-Negroids, Black Tribals, Dalits, Negro-Australoids and other BLACKS AT THE VERY BOTTOM OF INDIAN SOCIETY.
See www.dalitstan.org/books/sudroid

The term "Ngola" (Angola) means "King" in the Angolan languages. This term was mistaken by the Portugese to mean the DESCRIBE "Ndongo," the kingdom.

Our Youth are arising from the ashes of the neo slavery of the prison Industrial Complex
http://amen-parankh.blogspot.com/2014/01/n-g-heaven-and-earth-rise-up-from.html
Yes our youth are showing their @$$es to expose the underground economy...... I am a teacher with a home school, and I live with my students in their neighborhoods. I tutor, read to children, and teach STE-A-MM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Industrial Vocational Arts, Mathematics, Medicine) through urban agriculture on our urban farm. I see this every day. Our Youth are lowering their virtues like "flags" at half-mast as an SOS to the homicides and slaughter of their families and friends who are caught up in the criminal "In-Just U.S." system, the prison industrial complex and the military industrial complex. Sagging IS NOT A FASHION STATEMENT! Our youth have been the walking wounded suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress for the past 30 years! I'm not saying that I condone this behavior- But I also cannot condemn our young men (or Young Women) either. We must embrace our youth and use teachable moments to engage and connect with them.As there is a cure in nature, for every illness, Our Black Youth have gone feral, from the mundane delusions of the middle class value system and are generating their own freedom structures within the underground economy. Their Hip Hop Culture has become the cypher, the pathway map and talking drum for all youth around the planet. They are moving to a green movement to take on the accountability to the ecosystem of the planet and their role in the sustainability of their environment.


Niggas spelled backwards is "Saggin". Our Young Men and women are "showin their @$$" because they are Child Soldiers for the Underground Economy-/organized crime- The Up-side-down Pyramid- of big money prostitution, child abduction, strip club Pole dancing, selling body parts, drug dealings, guns, car thefts, shoplifting, burglary, killing and all other contraband and nefarious activities- happening even in our public school systems! In the United States, fashions have come and gone, but our young men have been saggin for over 20 years. Our Young women dress as prostitutes and seem to have no respect, principles or values. This is Normalizing abusive, nefarious illegal behavior, so that the victims accept their abuse as appropriate.

LibraryItem "/Library/CommonBehaviors/Normalizing
Normalizing - Normalizing is a tactic used to desensitize an individual to abusive, coercive or inappropriate behaviors. In essence, normalizing is the manipulation of another human being to get them to agree to, or accept something that is in conflict with the law, social norms or their own values, or basic code of behavior.
Description: Aggressors often work to make their victims feel less sensitive to, or more accepting of. offensive behavior by minimizing, down playing or mocking any negative reaction to inappropriate acts. In turn, victims often normalize bad behavior (the other person's and their own) by buying into the aggressor's logic and lowering their own standards. They learn to accept as normal what they once believed to be unacceptable, wrong, or dangerous. Normalizing is achieved when the victim no longer questions a behavior as inappropriate and starts to accept the perpetrator’s assertions that a questionable behavior is, in fact, normal and “healthy.”
Other Examples of Normalizing:
  • A cheating spouse who convinces their partner that affairs are harmless to their marriage.
  • Someone who enlists the help of a friend to destroy their own property in order to collect the insurance.
  • A pedophile grooming a child for sexual activity: "It's not wrong if we love each other."
  • Someone who sells pot out of your house: "This shouldn't even be illegal... who is it hurting?" 
Since the loss of our nationhood as Black Brothers and Sisters from the 60s, we have moved from “Black Power” in the 60s to “Fight the Power That Be” and “Let’s Get it On” in the 70s. Then Cocaine, to Crack and HIV in the 80s and 90s. "Blood" used to mean "family" in the 60s. We used the phrase... "Whatz up Blood?" to display unity in the struggle for black empowerment. Now "Blood" means you are in a gangster organization a symbol of death- “Def” to our youth. Our youth have been "riding dirty" in the “sagging” period far too long… NO ONE Has the Right to take away our own self determination and our names then turn us into artificial, superficial consumers.

Words do hurt- Words have life, Words are living entities of power… We must Deprogram our minds from Post Traumatic Maafa and put on the true crowns self knowledge, Mental and physical health, spirituality; The Crowns of power and humanity- not Isfit and death. Many of our people are caught up in the prison industrial and Military industrial complexes caught under the shrouds of the Boule who play to role of field hands to maintain the status quot- Fraternities, Sororities, Masons, and Adopted Religions.

 (This website is an attempt to speak on the word Negus- yet, no one else but Black People should take claim of OUR NAMES AND TITLES! - I disagree with their use of low melaninated people, who are included in this description...) 


STOP USING THE "N" WORD IN A LOW WAY!
FREE YOUR MIND TO HIGHER NTR N-G GOD CONSCIOUSNESS!

Capitol to Abolish Food Deserts in Kansas City

Seed Capital to Abolish Food Deserts
From the Cyber Pen of Sasteh Meter Mosley   
November 6th, 2011

To download your Application contact amen.ankh@live.com

Over the last three years, I have worked with many of you individually to gain more Food Sovereignty for the residents of the East side of Kansas City.  Now I would like to present a funding stream here in Kansas City that can provide the necessary start-up funds for farms, community food projects, stipends for workers, infrastructure for existing pantries, land acquisition, or any other reasonable expenses to wash away any obstacle to producing healthy foods. I am in Oakland, California for the Community Food Security Coalitions with thousands of other in the country that realize we have to take the next step in the Food Movement.
With the announcement that Aldi will open in 2011, It was suggested that the Food Desert in East Kansas City, MO will be eliminated.  Unfortunately, the definition of having a grocery store within a mile (12 city blocks) is woefully inadequate to address the nutritional challenges of low-income and high health risk residents.  Several organizations have convened groups to define solutions: 
1.  2008 NBUF Food System meetings at Dubois Learning Center with Bill Grace (DLC), The Bey (Moorish Science Temple), Kenyattas (Seed Restaurant), and Sasteh Mosley (Amen Christ Temple)
2.  2009 Black Agenda Group present Jim Nunley Training on Health Care Foundation, Rosa James (NAACP), Carol Coe, Debra Mann (Emmanuel Community Center)
3.  2009 Stimulus Funds Economic Development Meetings on Creation of Green Jobs (Urban Farming), Marlon Hammonds and Sasteh Mosley, Craig Bland (Freedom Inc), Clyde McQueen (FEC), Ken Bacchus (Economic Development Chair BAG and Freedom Inc.), Carol Coe (Convener), 19 other Activists
4.  2010 Urban Farming Ordinance  Chapter 88-312 and Food Policy Summit,  (Beth Gothstein Organizer), City Council: Terry Riley, Sharon Sanders Brooks, Cindy Circo, Melba Curls, John Sharp, and Ed Ford (The ten who Voted in Favor of the Ordinance), KCCUA, GCFPC, Bad Seed, EMWOT, Green Acres and Amen Ankh Urban Farm
5.  2011 Urban Farm Movement, Will Allen Abolish the Food Desert Event by Green Acres, Chicken Ordinance KCMO, Green Acres Urban Farm and Research Project Aquaponics Program (KCMO, KCMSD, BEU), EMWOT Urban Farm initiatives and services (Real Estate and Land Acquisition for farming, Farm Tours, At-Risk-Youth with Green Careers, Tilling Services, Music CDs, Health Classes), Get Growing Kansas City (CultivateKC.org, KC Community Gardens, and Lincoln University) Adenike AmenRa (Amen Ankh- Urban Farms, Wheatgrass, Food Preservation Classes)
Let's all take the next step in this movement.  As other movements plan to come into the East side of Kansas City, let’s make sure we continue to do the work to ensure that residents have the healthy, locally grown food they need to be successful.  Let's get these applications in, help others submit them, pass them on to those who are willing to work for a healthier city.  This seed capital can help those with tight budgets do something fun to help them feed themselves, support farm businesses that can hire people, and help existing organizations get into the "teach how to fish" side of feeding people. 
 Please forward this information to the gardeners, farmers, and community leaders you know.  I can provide technical assistance, group presentations, and free workshops to assist in getting the applications complete. 
Thanks,
Sasteh Mosley
CEO of EMWOT (East Meets West of Troost), (816) 281-7704)
