I told her to pray intensely and fervently, trusting implicitly on God’s saving Grace and I urged her to plead to the Almighty Creator to forgive all her sins, known and unknown and also I told her of the need to attune her lifestyles towards positivism and joyful expression.
She told me she prayed every day even with the assistance of her pastors and church members. Following her response, I brought out a tablet of black soap, mixed it with a little (a pinch) powder of Erythrophleum ivorense tree bark and asked her to bath at night time with it daily and prayerfully till I ask her to stop. She did exactly as I instructed her and she and her entire family members were delighted that she immediately, from the first day of using the black soap, experienced sound sleep for many consecutive nights without those traumatic night experiences. It was just unbelievable as far as they were concerned.
However, due to religious arguments and conflicts that later ensued between her and her supposedly “godly” relatives over the use of the black soap, she was talked into stopping bathing with it and her brother called my attention and reported that the psychic attacks resumed immediately again. After some months, I encountered her brother again on transits and on sighting me, he rushed towards me, hugged me warmly and with regretful tone, he broke the news to me that the sister later died.
What can we learn from this?
Please, and this is for the “very religious people”, it is not every practice that has occultist leaning or evil undertone. God Almighty imbued strength, virtues and powers to the numerous things he created (both animate and “inanimate”) for so it pleases Him..
Every thing He created has a purpose. When you use them for the reason and purpose for which they are made, you are simply glorifying God. When you reject His gifts, you are like the wicked servant that opted to bury his own talent. (QED).
Please also note that the plant I referred to in this essay (Erythrophleum ivorense) is TOXIC and MUST NOT be EATEN (INGESTED ).This is not a DIY (do-it-yourself) home project. I just cited this example to buttress the point that the Creator of the Universe made much provisions for His creatures. It is left for us to utilize them as obedient children or act like stubborn and ungrateful guests.
Stressful conditions abound; terrible news of kidnapping, terrorism, man inhumanity to man, murder, robbery, rape, injustice, bullying, domestic violence, tribal and religious crisis, political victimization etc. are on the rise not forgetting the ever-increasing natural disasters manifesting with precision all over the world. These weigh us down.
The days and times we live in are quite frightening. Sad news and events happen in very quick succession. Our actions and inaction have left tales of woes in our world. As these fearful unfolding deeds of madness continue to roll out with uncanny rapidity and the vengeful furies are unleashed, human beings must come to (indeed, are compelled to) the full realization that God’s laws can not be mocked; what we sow we must reap and in manifold measure for that mater. “For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.”
If we desire to reap good fruits, we must begin to sow good seeds NOW. There is no shortcut to this, no sweet sermon or worldly philosophies can help us out of this self inflicted punishment.
The following medicinal plants are completely safe and can assist in mitigating, lessening or resolving emotional/ mental trauma, anger, depression, anxiety, stress, shock and psychic tension and afflictions. These remedial measures are further potentiated with some forms of spiritual or energy healing.
From my personal observations and experience, most medicinal plants that work well in this fashion have purple to violet flowers.
Plants’ activities are largely revealed by the colour of their flowers . Plants stamp their uniqueness and nature of their work in the colour of their flowers?
The colour violet has very strong penetrating vibration in the world of finer and heavy matter. Even in the science of colour therapy, we know that violet colour among other healing actions can treat mental disorders, anger, nervous disorder, addictions, nightmares, psychic afflictions of all types, suicidal thoughts, depression, troubled mind, fearful thoughts, negative thoughts, shocks, weak will power and leaking protective aura to mention a few.
Various forms of preparation of these herbs can be employed; they could be as herbal teas, alcohol extracted herbs (tinctures), herbal capsules, herbal oils and ointments, herbal syrups, herbal soap, herbal lozenges, herbal decoction, essential oils etc.
