Music and Dance

  Since the dawn of humanity, music and dance have been an integral part of our lives. But behind their festive character or their capacity to convey emotions, music and dance cover a spiritual dimension that this materialistic society has made us lose sight of: that of a profound communication with the world of the Gods. By investing in the emotional aspect of the human being, the entertainment industry has reduced culture to the sole artistic expression, and all that seems to be left of tradition is folklore. Yet indigenous peoples have always used music and dance to communicate with the spirits and awaken the forces of nature to receive their blessing. Behind every rhythm lies an invitation from the divine, and behind every movement lies a mystical preparation. In these cultures, where the spirit of festivity seems to prevail, fun is in fact a collateral benefit of celebrating the harmony that reigns between the visible and invisible worlds.

Without knowledge of your ancestors, you become like a tree with no roots

  "I think, therefore I am. But who am I? Am I only what I think? Am I only the one who thinks? These days, there's a lot of confusion between our personality and our identity. And yet, the word personality comes from personal, meaning that which is peculiar to our person, while identity gives identical, meaning that which is similar in every way to something else. So why do we insist on thinking that it's the character traits of our personality that constitute our identity?   Could this be an implicit and unconscious acceptance that we are not the only human beings to think, speak and act in such or such a way? If we had the opportunity to meet the members of our family tree up to 7 generations back, we'd quickly realize that what we believe makes us unique was in fact already present in our ancestors. And that's where our true identity comes from. We need to understand that what "I am", I am because I am identical to my ancestors. That a long chain

The Paths To Knowledge

  The Paths To Knowledge In my father's language, French, there are two verbs to say “to know” which are " savoir " and " connaître " and they are interchanged all the time. However, the following example illustrates the fundamental difference between these two types of knowledge: we can say, about someone, "I know who this person is but I don't know him". This expression indicates that one knowledge is more passive and informational, whereas the other is more active and experiential. The living character of the latter is rightly reflected in the expressions "know-how" (“ savoir-faire ”) and "knowing how to be" (“ savoir-être ”), and an old proverb from the Kemetic (traditional African) tradition illustrates this reality: "the dust of the buttocks is not worth the dust of the feet". But despite the wisdom of our ancestors, today, knowledge and knowing continue to be confused.  It took the Internet barely 30 years to ca
