Truvelisback: Good day, fellas. Take it or Leave it, it is only God that can give u ur ideal wife or husband that u need. I'm talking from experience. Whether we like it or not, our human brain/reasoning is limited to many things. What may appear as Gold to u might not be Gold. The big question is, how do i know this person is my ideal partner without missing it or getting it wrong? That's the question God himself can answer. Our human sight and reasoning may lead us astray. That's why we need the help of God. Sometimes, u may not know whether the person u are looking down could be ur ideal partner. Let God lead u tru ur own fervent prayers and fasting.
Konfam! To know your wife is to know your helper. To know your helper is to know your needs. To know your needs is to know yourself. To know yourself is to know your maker. Hence, by the law of transitivity, to know your wife is to know your God!
Domipraiz: Good evening to you all. I don't know if this is the right place to drop this.
Am a married man. I lived in the same compound with my best friend sister. We Just moved into the neighborhood not too long (11 months ago). My friend's sister is also married with kids.
Let me go straight to the point, ever since we moved into the compound this woman has been disturbing my wife with gossip. She's a full house wife while my wife is running a M.sc programme but due to ASUU strike, she has being at home. This woman will come to my wife and talk bad things about everyone living in the neighborhood including those living in our compound. Most funny thing about her is that once she leave our apartment, she's moving into the next apartment.
My wife and I have studied her very well that most time we try to avoid, ignore or resist her from coming to our house but to no avail. Not that I can't warn her to stop coming but am trying to avoid issues that will arise between me and my friend and also her husband.
She was keeping malice with another woman (Mrs Adelaku) in our compound because the woman ignored her totally as a result of her gossip.
Last two weeks Mrs Adelaku came to our apartment to invite my wife to her brother's wedding and as a result of that she thinks my wife is getting closer to that woman.
Yesterday she came to our house and confronted my wife of gossiping with the other woman (Mrs Adelaku) about her. That when neighbors are trying to settle issues between her and Mrs Adelaku that she quoted my wife. She accused my wife of telling Mrs Adelaku everything she has being telling her. And also tell my wife not to confront Mrs Adelaku.
But my wife went to Mrs Adelaku that same day to confront her but she swear with the bible and everything she has that she never tell her anything related to that. That perphers she and my wife are not a gist partner if not for the wedding invitation that she brought.
With anger, my wife went back to this woman (my friend sister) and tell her what the woman said. She later apologies to my wife that it was a trick. That she just wants to know their discussing that when she came with the wedding I.V she discovered that the woman (Mrs Adelaku) stayed a little bit longer in our apartment.
Ever since my wife has developed so much hatred for her/ her husband and even my friend that she doesn't want to see anyone of them again in our apartment.
Am so sorry for the long story, am not to good in this. Kindly bear with me.
What can I do in this situation? Matured mind please, thanks.
Dude listen to your wife. She get sense pass you. If a man can harbour a parrot as a wife even he cannot be trusted. Listen to your wife and forget that best friend nonsense you are parroting. With the right level of motivation your so called best friend will betray you to your face so manage your home and grow up.
Yemialade: Hello family,i love this family section cause i learnt alot here and am still learning.a big THANKS For everyones contribution in one way or the other which changes life. AM a single lady so i bought this issue here cause i will also be a married woman . one particular day,my mom just came back from an outing and was a bit tired and my dad told her he was hungry that she should cook for him,my mom was like am tired to cook that there is food in d freezer he can warm,he said its eba he wants to eat so one thing led to another and he said: i married you to cook for me. Sometimes he wil threaten my mum that he .is going to report her to her father if they have arguement o,not misunderstanding.
This is why one needs to be properly educated before choosing a spouse. Choose a husband that loves like God and choose a wife that submits totally.
fineboynl: Sometimes I don’t understand it: there are people who sleep with women just for once and they are done. Not to talk of giving Birth to 1,2,3 with same woman. There are reasons why some men have many wife or concubine.
We lose interest once we slept with a woman. The lust died and We might need them around some other day though. And not because we really want them like that oh but maybe because no one is available at the time.
Mehn speak for yourself oh. Not every man is a fuckernizer. Some men did not spend their teen years passing girls around and it became a norm for them to stick to one partner.
BadRadio: Quite a number of persons are dating right now largely because of various reasons... some still date for the sake of sex.
Let's say we leave out the sex part... Will u still continue with that relationship?
If she is relevant for business, yes. If she is relevant for intellectual development, yes. If she is relevant for spiritual growth, yes...but if she is not relevant for anything other than sex, na to boot am!
siofra: One guy I've known for the past five years just confessed to stalking me at night!
I swear I'm so shocked right now. I feel so weird.
I asked him why and he said he was trying to talk to me. This is somebody I talk to often. And he was so comfortable telling me about the nights he stalked me. Jesus Christ!
Nigerian men are very dangerous.
What if he did something to me? Why would anyone even be comfortable saying something like this?
I'll cut him off, I don't care if we've known each other for long. I need to stay safe from Nigerian men, they are wicked.
What if he's not the only one? Wow! He even says I give off antisocial vibes.
SimpleGuy001: OK, as the topic says i have 500k in my account and i intend to come to lagos after service. Any advice from matured people here? I'm praying for divine direction but let me hear your advices.
Note: no relative in lagos so i'm starting from scratch with accomodation and all
Mehn your situation is dire oh. If you believe in God. Fast and pray to God for direction. Because that 500k wey you hold e go only cover rent, transport and household stuff!
Kobojunkie: I think the confusion is yours here. Jesus Christ first told you that in order to gain understanding from Him you must first use the understanding you already have. Those who refuse to do as commanded will have even the little understanding they have taken away away them - Matthew 25 vs 29 & Matthew 13 vs 12 & Mark 4 vs 22 - 24 ... What this means is that if the understanding you have or your ability to comprehend human language is blighted in anyway, you are likely to end up loosing understanding instead of gaining anything from God in the process.
A wise man, on hearing the above for the first time, would empty himself or every form of foolishness he can find, in order that he can begin again with God using even understanding that comes from basic human language comprehension. However, must are not wise - particularly those already made blind by by lies of men - so nothing wrong with helping them with a little bit of eye opening to cause them to realize their blindness and need to abandon the lies they have stored up in their hearts where even God is concerned.
Dude are you Freeze's advocate? I didn't direct my comment to you. Keep your wisdom to yourself and don't quote me.
Joshmoore: we from the vawulence head quarters won’t sign any shit, if APC or PDP bring wahala , we go give them back wotowoto add jara on top.
Peter Obi must win, if not, then Nigeria has finally gone to the dogs without hope of coming out alive
Nigeria will still go to the dogs if Peter Obi wins. If Peter Obi wins what will you do to Tinubu and Atiku? You will leave them abi? Will you arrest them and imprison them? If you leave those two, they will destabilize the country and you will regret voting Peter Obi. What happened to GEJ will happen to Peter Obi and there is nothing he will be able to do about it. Nigerians use your heads. There is no worthy candidate. We have to boycott the elections and work together to fix our communities ourselves.
Una never see nothing...Tinubu and Atiku will start a war in this country if they don't win. Fulani herdsmen, Boko boys and girls, ISWAP, bandit, etc go resume work in full swing after May 2023...last last we must learn a lesson, that Nigeria is not for us. Nigeria is for the ruling class. If we don't come together and fix our country ourselves, one community at a time, we are jokers in the battlefield.
Oh! What a fool! He prays in the name of Yeshua to the Father yet he makes the words of Yeshua second to a fictional writing. He prays in the name of Yeshua and that Yeshua said He will send us a comforter and that He will teach us all things but this fool says you need to understand how human societies work to understand the words of Yeshua. What a bundle of confusion. If Freeze were an atheist and he spent his days castigating Christians and other religions he would have been somewhat consistent but instead he has worked himself into a trap of his own design.
chieveboy: Yes it has. Sorry it's get hard for me to type small lengths...
I will also like to call out this '"scientifically proven" syndrome. The idea that if it's not published, it's not true or doesn't exist, what that really? and how ludicrous
You sound like a good candidate for whatever you want to avoid by waiting for a Figure Head to give you a go ahead to prove things and accept by yourself.
You have to understand that Science had long since moved on away from the Disco wry/Publication norm into Discover/Covet/hide or even mislead others norm.
It now is controlled by interest groups for money, power, security and politics. No more Science text books and publications for discoveries that matter
This not to mean you cannot be pointed in a direction for scientific work on the subject. You only risk yourself getting mixed with mysticism and religion because they meet, they must! Also understand that (your) Science's job is merely to play Catch Up with what is known before humans developed a languaging system. That's what science do and does.
The image then would be an 'entry point' (portal) to that time track or object of interest so much that when the attention is fully given, you would have veered of this moment into full and real-time observership and interaction.
This is a truth you have been familiar with all this while. You just are waiting in vain for one scientist to give you a go-ahead to make yours this fact. "Are you with us" said to someone is an instance and statement used to 'bring someone back' to a discussion (timetrack/moment). The actual person is not with them as in a burial, he is somewhere else, why?
A person stripped of all bodies and faculties is a State of or Unit of awareness!
chieveboy: You must have read in the Bible where Jesus said something in the line of forgiving someone before praying?
The technical reason for that is that of what I will call 'Associative Causes' and the simple meaning is in the saying "where the attention is, the body follows". "As a man thinketh...". Sadness, regret, worry, anger, jealousy etc automatically takes you to the realms where this energies reside, so you won't see anything heavenly.
Have you heard us talking about Soul Travel? Just know that any time you think of something, you have Soul Traveled to where that thing is in the universe to see it. Are you connecting the dots?
To approach God, you MUST come with a pure heart. Failure to do so may result in failure why? Because you are seeking the living among the dead.
How can you come to God with a pure heart? Very very simple. You simple muster all the love you can if you must say "pim". This is the simple key all this while-Love. This is because God is LOVE ITself. This means anytime you feel or perform Love, you are actually feeling or 'performing' God, you are in the realms of pure heaven not lower heavens where hatred, worry etc reside. It's a travel thing.
If you cannot muster love nko? A simple way to 'get in love' is to think or reflect on something or someone you love. Boyfriend, husband, child, toy, place, food or even an event that had happened in the past or that you expect in the future or even if fictional. You can think of when you met your lover.
What people don't know is that all the positive forward pressing energy of LOVE is what that Sound (HU) is and it's a God given gift to anyone. Eckists use it because they have explored the science of God and found its qualities. Today it appears as if it's a property of Eckankar. Not so. There are other sounds also and none can be the property of anyone or organization.
So anything not love that you do in association to God puts you on a 'long thing'. This goes regardless of your religion or method of contacting God you're using.
Let us start with the bolded, because you typed a lot of stuff and I would like you to break each down one after the other. Now, in reference to the bolded section of your comment, can that phenomenon you just mentioned be proven scientifically? So If I were to see the Andromeda galaxy from a telescope and I begin to think of the beauty of the galaxy from my current location does it mean that my soul traveled some 2.5 million light years into the past (considering that there is no way my soul would have existed at such a time unless you want to assume that all souls have always existed)? Answers please!
Templee333: OPEN AIR VAHANA There's what eckists call open air vahana.Although they say they dont make effort to win converts,they go in group to a public place & speak abt eckankar. Then there's the eckankar radio & tv broadcast. Open air vahana is not evangelism.It is not to win converts. It is to make the public hear about eckankar.The eckists in general don't try to convert people to their religion. But if they've to go all this far to make the public aware of them,then what should u call that?
What is then the purpose of making people know about the religion? Are they seeking validation? Is it not still a feeble attempt at proselytizing the ignorant?
chieveboy: Membership renewal asides the fact that it aids in providing your discourses and other publications you receive, functions as your commitment and consent to be a member of Eckankar. Consent is crucial in Eckankar in observance of spiritual law against tempering the state of consciousness of anyone without their permission whether for good or bad.
You cannot receive invitations for initiation if you are not a current member as results. You however remain a registered member for up to 5 years max.
One incorrect information you states earlier is that only members benefit from the ECK or Masters. That's like putting God up for sale as done in religions. Mozart worked with Rebazar Tarz.
Rebazar Tarz for one worked with thousands of scientists and inventors responsible for bringing most of our inventions and things that uplift the human consciousness today without these scientists knowing who he was at times, and without the beneficiaries ever hearing the word "ECKANKAR".
Anyone can benefit from the masters. All they ask is a loving heart and not membership of any religion, believe in God or rightousness. Their chief goal is linking any ready soul with the divine current. This is what an initiation is. This is actually the original target of baptism till it became are useless physical ritual today.
So those baptised in those days were linked to divine current, na high tension dem take connect? Just asking ohh. What is the divine current? You need to explain, please.
Templee333: I GOT INTO TROUBLE I was into the hu singing habit 4 sometimes.Now this's the problem: i shared a room with my younger sister. I didnt want her 2 knw dat i had something 2 do with eckankar,so i'll go outside early morning 2 sing hu. One morning while i was singing,a man opposite the compound heard me after sometimes he went inside & came out with another man. But by then i'd keep quiet. A few days later it was knwn 2 people in the compound dat i'm a ritualist! The man who saw me said he caught me red handed making incantations!He made his children stay away frm me. When i told these 2 d eckists,they said i should continue singing hu, Its the solutn 2 every problem!
chieveboy: Like I mentioned elsewhere to you, "the apple does not fall far from the tree".
When you get results with the HU, you are at home finally with God within you. You are contented, happy and feel secure, this is not contentment by faith as in the case of the religion with nothing to show for it.
You run not after God of Men for help or complaining that you are experiencing nothing and your throat may break down.
When you sing it with love and feel or sense the ECK, love and sweetness will fill you up that you can't wait to do it again. You may experience light in your spiritual eye and hear the music of God. Mozart the deaf composer hears this music and whatever he was able to put on paper was called and hailed a classic despite the fact that what made its way to paper was a mundane version of what he heard.
This is what it means to experience God first hand rather than reading or hearing about it. Healing, Soul Travel, clear mind (intelligence), joy are after-effects of hearing and seeing this light. If you wonder what the fuss is about seeing the light and hearing the sound is, then these are the mundane effects of it.
This Sound and Light is not a reserve of Eckists. Any one regardless of faith in God or lack of it can hear and see it. Intelligence, etc are but the many ways it manifests and works in all living things. When people see light, hear the sound or experience both, they are experiencing it in it's purer form.
Not everyone can withstand the Holy Spirit in it's purer form. This is why you are asked to sing HU for maximum of 30min max. Repeat again daily to gain in stamina. A little flash of it can leave you sleepless for days, worse IF you are not ready and prepared for it. Conversely, it can make you spiritually great.
Also note removing all your problems with one fell swoop may send you rolling off balance (to put it mildly). So many things we ask that we are not ready for practically.
"Eckankar" translates to "Path of the Holy Spirit". It is where you eat bones and not live on milk of scriptures, beliefs, dogmas and creeds and so on.
Really? So singing "HU" is not a dogma? The OP sang this HU till his voice cracked. Unless something has happened to the OP as a result of his HUing na dogma.
Templee333: THE COST OF MEMBERSHIP In order 2 have full contact with the light & sound,u need 2 be a registered member.They explained that i have 2 pay N20K(as of then). What! 20K? where will i get dat kind of money? Apart from that,i'll need 2 renew my membership (with money) every year. The only reason i didnt join the path was the financial cost,i couldnt afford it. They said i should continue 2 chant hu.The mahanta should've understood that i was ready to join if not 4 money reason,but he didnt undstnd. So he withheld all the goodies frm me 'cos i didn't have 50USD to pay,how sad! But now i do think abt it,does one realy need 2 be sending money from Nigeria to US so dat d whiteman can teach him how 2 fly in dreams? US is far richer than Nigeria,so if he REALY loves us as he teaches,why not show us everything 4 free? If i must pay him 50 dollars b4 i can live in that fantastic heaven of eternal bliss,then something is wrong somewhere.
But I thought they don't collect offering...na how the $50 registration fee take different from offering. You pay, you register, you grow.
Templee333: ECK MASTERS Paul Twitchel teaches that abt 970 eck masters had lived b4 him. These he met in the spiritual world (or how else does he knw them?).Rebazar tarzs is said 2 have been a teacher of Paul twitchel,but how am i 2 knw dis? Eckankar teaches that u don't have 2 believe on something but experience & knw it urself. If i dont meet & communicate with all the 970 eck masters,how will i knw they actually exist? Did any of the eck masters live in Nigeria? Do all eckists who promote this teaching actually knw these eck masters in person,Or they just believe?(remember,eckists don't believe,they knw!) These were (still are) some of the questions i had abt the eck path.But the eckists are very smart,they tell u 2 sing hu & everything will be clarified. If u tell them dat u dont experience anything after singing the hu,they tell u 2 continue singing it: "No experience is an experience itself" they said. So i sang hu till my throat "cracked"...MORE STORIES
Till your throat cracked bawo...omo you go dey sing dat "hu" dey go ohh...
Templee333: INITIATIONS i noticed frm the very 1st day that eckists wear ID card in their gathering. I could see the name of the eckist & his stage of initiation written as "initiation 1" or "initiation 2" in his ID card. There are the "high initiate"(usually those that reach initiation 6). The visiting speakers were high initiates.How is initiation done? That's one thing i dnt knw abt eckankar 'cos i wasn't initiated.But i once had an initiation (or something like that) in a drm. I was standing near a river & someone stood near me & said i should call a spirit named(...),when i called the spirit she came out frm the river,a woman dressed in red with a little knife. I sticked out my tongue & she touched the tip of my tongue with the knife. Just then a strange power awoke in me,much like electric current. But that was just a dream. I really dnt knw what initiation is like. However, i got into trouble once because of Hu...STORY CONT
Sounds like they are forcing you in the dream...as den nor wan force you for physical...cos I know you will not agree to go to the water to call one spirit wey go use your tongue sharpen knife!
Templee333: SOME SIMILARITIES WITH BCS (1)love as the central teaching, (2)reincarnation & karma, (3)respect for all lives including animals, (4)abstinence from alcohol & smoking is recomended but not forced, DIFFERENCES (1)BCS use bible while eckist use shariyat-ki-sugmad as Scripture. (2)BCS wear white garment while Eckists have no specific uniform. (3)BCS recomend monogamy but Eckists doesn't interfere in ur choice of marriage. ALTOGETHER, eckankar gives more freedom to their members than BCS.
Yea! That is why una dey fund fulani herdsmen, bandits etc to justify state police ba and to have your own underground army to rival that of the government abi. A person black ops squad ready to wreck havoc at a moment's notice.
Anyone of you with blood on your hands will pay dearly for it in Jesus name. Amen.
I know we are a people of rich culture and traditions and very often many berate Christians and Muslims for steering people away from their culture and traditions but please for the love of the LORD can someone please explain the significance and relevance of the culture displayed in the YouTube video below:
I used to try to see the best in people before until I got burned repeatedly and now I am trained to see the worst in people first and foremost. These so called impounded vehicles are the sweat of some people and these devilish customs officials are auctioning it at nonsense prices to their cronies. After making blood money they start suffering problems that money cannot solve.
derecho: Kikikiki... You don't need to be intelligent to know these pictures are not roads in northern Nigeria..
Copy and paste blogger
I don't know if these pictures are from the north but with my little experience of the north I can emphatically tell you that some northern states have excellent roads. I had to see it for myself to believe it.
Some men were born with a mandate to be magnanimous with stupidity. This idiot gave a lady 17500 without declaring what he wants to buy. They should have pressed charges against that fool. And the foolish policemen who arrested a minor need to be reprimanded. If not that the girl was accompanied to the station the police and that idiot would have bullied the poor girl into sleeping with her there in the station. What a living manifestation of disgrace and stupidity!
DrLevi: @bolded Did you say "benefits of responsibility"? LMAO
Wahala for who wan be MEN.
Responsibility is what matures a man...a man that is not bridled by responsibility ends up being an overgrown beast who ultimately becomes a threat to himself and to others.
Somewhere in this thread I posted this but I'll type it out again: Scientists have found malaria pathogens preserved in drops of amber that are 15 to 40 million years old. Is your intelligent god responsible this? If so he's the murderer of 2 or more billion people from prehistoric human history to modern times! Most of the dead are children!
Intelligence breeds intelligence and where there are free moral agents there will be never be a lack of calamities and solutions. I trust you are sensible enough to discern this. People today have created machines that learn and are intelligent. God didn't do that, man did but your post seems to attribute all forms of intelligence to God without acknowledging the reproductive capacity of intelligence.
Prior to the big bang time and space did not exits. No one knows what came before or made the big bang occur and you DO NOT EITHER! Well, news flash, the James Webb Telescope just destroyed your beloved big bang theory. Some galaxies have been spotted that seemed too old to be real with some dating back to within 200 million light years after the so called big bang. Lol, find another theory.
Putting your god-did-it rubbish into a scientific unknown is the ultimate in self entitlement, privilege and ego. But it is not self-entitlement or ego when Steve Hawkings claimed that the universe could spontaneously bring itself to existence. Lol. It is amazing how extremely brilliant minds can spout stuff that challenge the basest levels of intuition and commonsense. Imagine getting home and your kid tells you the food you left behind ate itself. Lol. But Steve Hawkings, one of the world's foremost theoretical physicists claims the universe caused itself and folks like you will immediately swallow that piece of crap and use it in arguments. How are you different from the religious folks you so accuse of being self entitled. Scientists say stuff and you swallow it without thought.
It is Christians who believe that something came from nothing! Wrong! Steve Hawking also believes the same.
Yet if your claim is that everything existing needs a first cause and your god exists then where did your god come from? If your god needs no first cause, why does the universe? Again, you can use religious entitlement but it is a flawed proposal from the get-go.. Yet in a bid to solve an equation that does not yield to algebraic manipulations using numerical approaches or to estimate a ensemble/classifier model you can easily assume initial conditions without questioning the philosophy behind such an approach but you find it impossible assuming an uncaused first cause. Lol. You are entitled to your beliefs though.
