Good teaching, when understand to know and save my own God, not to be follows of worship, I observed a very difference's. I should know my own God or God's and Origin first. So much love in your teaching ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nze Tobe Osigwe, thanks for this wonderful teaching, 'why you need to cling to your ancestors" , however, I am a bit confused. I started my spiritual journey with the understanding that I am not the body and I am not even the mind, and that I am pure consciousness and that the world is divided into the wise people and fools. Fools divided themselves into tribes, gender, religion, color, etc. The wise people love all and serve all. I have transcend to have a global identity. Being identified makes one not to perceive life as it is. Odinana is the truth and I am still learning.
My dear, it was not the fools that divided us into tribes, gender, color etc. It was nature. Our differences exist for a reason. We must acknowledge, preserve and appreciate these differences. Rather than trying to erase, deny or overlook them. Odinani is all about following the path of truth through Igbo cultural system. We appreciate, deconstruct nature through our own unique environment, peculiarities and philosophies. Anyone who is telling to overlook your own path does not like you. Egbe belu, Ugo belu, nke siri ibe ya ebena nku kwapu ya.
Nze thank you very much for this wonderful exposition. This is why you shouldn't demand a plate of ukwa to eat in all occasions I because, it's specifically for some class of persons. 😂
Dear Nze Tobe Osigwe, I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for your recent enlightening talk on clinging to our kind. Your insights were incredibly immersive and thought-provoking, capturing my attention from start to finish. The way you used illustrations from the animal kingdom to drive home your message was particularly impactful. Your ability to draw parallels between their behaviors and our own was both enlightening and engaging. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and inspiring us to reflect on the importance of embracing our true selves and connecting with our kind. Your contribution to our understanding is invaluable, and I look forward to continuing to learn from your teachings. With sincere appreciation, Japheth Onyedikachi Nwadaiogor.
Ikolo mmuo thank you so much for this educative video. Daalu nwanne. Please can you make a video on the effect of names on the bearer's life or destiny. Like, people always say that the meaning of a person's name has a huge impact on how the person's life turnout, please can you educate us on this?
great video as usual, thank you nze. out of context if you don't mind. considering one of your teachings where you spoke about losing spiritual energy (or powers, i'm not sure) everytime you ejaculate, what are you thoughts about masturbation and addiction to it?
@@Ezeikolomuo An unfortunate reality of being African American is coming into true historical consciousness of our people and what has happened to the continent in which our genetics and ancestry descend from. 2 years ago I suffered major depression after losing my career . Since learning/study African cultures and history it has managed to change my view of the world. I humbly come to you as a lost black man yearning to leave behind my Europeanized ways and decolonize my thinking and start thinking like Black man connected to his culture.I want to learn Igbo language, beliefs and customs so I can become an Igbo if it's even possible. Please and sincerely. Can you give me a name? It doesn't have to be special or anything but just something other than my current name one in which has no meaning. I could easily find a common Igbo name online but I don't think that it would be natural.😅
@@lifeinlife24 Let's start with a name. I will suggest Afamefuna or Amaechina. Afamefuna means my name will not get lost. In Igbo when a man finds it difficult to find a male child that will continue his lineage/ancestry, then finally, he succeeds in getting a male child, such child will be named Afamefuna or Amaechina. Amaechina means may my lineage not come to an end. Some of our African American kins are like people suddenly cut of from their lineage. You wanting to connect back is an attempt to engraft yourself back into a system where your true pyschic being lies. In trying to find your true identity you are saying I do not want my name to get lost or I do not want my lineage to be erased via europeanisation. So, choose out of the two names.
May I suggest firstly making sure you are indeed Igbo. I have seen some that were Yoruba and even Hausa. Questlove traced his ancestry and was shocked that his ancestor came from south Africa. DNA is the way to go. I found multiple Igbo family members that I now have a relationship with. Later I took the 23&me test that said I was Igbo, and also Homedna said my DNA origin was in Igboland. You can know for sure but it requires tracing family genealogy and DNA testing. You can be adopted into an Igbo family but I personally believe it's better to go to your root. Just offering my thoughts, That's all.
You’re great man, your teaching is deep!

great video as usual, thank you nze. out of context if you don't mind. considering one of your teachings where you spoke about losing spiritual energy (or powers, i'm not sure) everytime you ejaculate, what are you thoughts about masturbation and addiction to it?
First, any form of addiction is bad. For masturbation, it's a waste of reproductive energy. And also, a form of self degradation.
Masturbation is a sign one has no self control/restraint.
Do you consider "Blacks" of America your kind or "Race"? Or will this be to close of a call to make?
Do "Blacks" of America consider themselves Africans or Americans?
